Preface
The Philippines has gone so far as to play a scoundrel in the face of ironclad evidence and have developed an attitude of "denying guilt to death."
And when China took the evidence to seek verification, the person concerned mysteriously disappeared at this time!
In the eyes of the Philippines, without evidence, it is like a fictitious evidence, and it can maintain a non-admitting attitude towards this matter.
Regarding the Philippines' practice of "dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water", many netizens said that it is time for China to make the Philippines more decent!
The "crime" of the Philippines
Recently, the Philippines has become more and more "rampant", not only frantically carrying out provocations in the South China Sea, but also continuing to carry out the rogue practice of "denying to the death".
Last year, the Philippines invaded and occupied China's Ren'ai Jiao Island, and "beached" a warship on Ren'ai Jiao Island.
With regard to the practice of such ships breaking down on mainland territory, the mainland has only signed a "gentlemen's agreement" with the Philippines, demanding that the Philippine side tow the "beached" warship away from the uninhabited island of Ren'ai Jiao as soon as possible.
But until now, 25 years have passed, and the Philippines has not towed the ship away, and is also trying to build a permanent facility on Second Thomas Reef and continue to deliver construction materials to Second Thomas Reef.
This practice by the Philippines has seriously violated the "Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea" that it has signed.
When it was signed, the Philippines made it clear that it would not be the first country to violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, but now what they are doing is completely different from what they said at the time.

The Philippines has also learned this "say one thing and do another" approach.
In addition, on April 30, the Philippines made a number of Philippine coast guard ships and official vessels illegally intrude into the mainland's Scarborough Shoal in an attempt to occupy the mainland's Scarborough Shoal.
Fortunately, the mainland's coast guard discovered the situation in a timely manner and took legal measures to drive these Philippine vessels that illegally intruded on Scarborough Shoal out of China's territorial waters.

China has also lodged solemn representations with the Philippines on this matter, demanding that the Philippines immediately stop its infringement and provocation.
Because long before that, on April 22, the Philippines did something that was a "provocation" for China.
China invited other countries to participate in the 19th Western Pacific Naval Forum, and among all the countries, the Philippines was the only country that refused to attend the international forum hosted by China after receiving the invitation.
And on April 22, they launched a "shoulder-to-shoulder" military exercise with the United States, which made many people think that the Philippines was deliberately absent from the international forum in order to disrupt the forum.
Global Network, April 23, 2024 "The Philippines Absentes from the Western Pacific Naval Forum for No Reason, Expert: It is not ruled out that the Philippines will deliberately be absent to disrupt the forum"
However, China will not let this naïve idea of the Philippines succeed, and this international forum is not only a regional forum, but its influence goes far beyond the geographical scope of the Western Pacific, and it is an important platform for navies around the world to strengthen exchanges, enhance mutual trust and deepen cooperation.
Such an approach by the Philippines undoubtedly contradicts the international rules and maritime order that they have been advocating.
In addition, the Philippines also took the initiative to tear up the "gentlemen's agreement" signed by China and the Philippines many years ago, and directly denied the signing of the agreement.
He also said that since Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos took office in 2022, he has never known about this matter, and he has not recognized being a member of the internal agreement with China.
The evidence is ironclad
The Philippines' practice of not admitting accounts has left many people helpless.
Because the "gentlemen's agreement" is an informal, non-binding agreement, it mainly relies on the credibility and good faith between the parties to achieve, and does not have legal means to enforce like other treaties.
Compared with those "binding agreements", the gentlemen's agreement has the characteristics of being more flexible, it can be regarded as a tacit understanding between the participants, which can adapt to the complex international environment, facilitate his rapid coordination and action, and can respond to emergencies faster.

However, the Philippines tore it up and did not admit the existence of such a thing, and China also came up with ironclad evidence to publicize this evil behavior of the Philippines.
According to the data, China and the Philippines reached this "gentlemen's agreement" at the end of 2021, and China and Africa have been implementing this gentlemen's agreement until February 2023, until the Philippines no longer abides by this agreement.
In September 2023, China and the Philippines also held an internal understanding on the management of the situation on Ren'ai Jiao, and the Philippine leadership agreed to the matter.
What I never expected, this matter was only carried out once in the transportation and replenishment of Ren'ai Jiao, and it was abandoned by the Philippines.
It was not until the beginning of this year that the Western Military Region of China and the Philippines, after repeated talks, came up with a "new model" for transporting and replenishing Ren'ai Jiao Islands, and after repeated confirmation and consent by the Philippine side, this "new model" began to be implemented.
To everyone's surprise, this "new model" was abandoned by the Philippines after it was implemented once on February 2.
It seems that the Philippines has long guessed that this will happen, and the Chinese side has already made a recording of the consultations on this "new model".
Global Times, May 10, 2024, "Foreign Media Discloses the Recording of the "New Model" of China-Philippines Transportation and Replenishment"
According to the data, this recording shows the process of China and the Philippines this year's negotiation process around the "new model" of China's Ren'ai Jiao Island, the Philippines beached ship replenishment.
In addition, there is a transcript showing that the commander of the Western Philippine Military District, Albert Carlos, agreed to a "new model" for the replenishment of Philippine beached warships.
After being confirmed by people familiar with the matter, the content of this record is true, and Philippine military officials have indeed reached an agreement with the Chinese side on the "new model" of transportation and replenishment, and have complied with it, but the Philippines quickly reneged on its promise.
On the one hand, it claims that the "new model" is fabricated out of thin air, and that the Philippines and China have not reached any agreement on Ren'ai Jiao.
Global Network, May 10, 2024 "Philippine officials continue to quibble in front of the audio recording, expert: There may be two reasons why the Philippines denies it"
On the other hand, it said that the Chinese recording violated the Philippine Anti-Eavesdropping Act, and that the person in charge should be identified and expelled.
As for the person who knows about this agreement, Carlos, the commander of the Western Philippine Military Region, as long as he is found, he can solemnly correct the truth of the matter, but he never expected that Carlos would not be contacted!
According to the Philippine Department of Armed Forces, Carlos took a leave of absence for personal reasons last Tuesday, but the reason for the leave was not known.
The result of the Philippines' approach is to make it a country that is discredited by other countries, and in the eyes of other countries, the Philippines will be a country without integrity.
brief summary
Although the Philippines has always denied this matter, it does not affect the fact that they have done these things.
I believe that our country will come up with more powerful evidence and let the Philippines stay "decent" to the end.
