The Duterte regime is not pursuing an independent foreign policy, contrary to Panelo’s claim. It is pursuing a policy of subjecting the Philippines to the continuing over-all US dominance and to the incoming debt colonization of the Philippines by China and the surrender of the sovereign rights of the Filipino people in the West Philippine Sea

Former Solicitor General Hilbay is correct that the Duterte regime has already treasonously and stupidly made a waiver of Philippine sovereign rights by falling silent on these and putting these at par with the false claims of China in the MOU on the joint China-Philippine joint exploration and development of the oil and gas resources under the West Philippines Sea

Duterte himself announced his plan to unleash his death squads against anyone suspected of being associated with the CPP and NPA

Duterte is definitely a traitor and a dopehead for failing to make diplomatic protests and to sue China in the courts of the US and other countries where China has assets for violating Philippine sovereign rights, the UNCLOS and the judgment of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in favor of the Philippines, for illlegally making artificial islands, occupying and militarizing them, for damaging the marine environment and depriving the Filipino people of the resources in the West Philippine Sea

There is already a de facto martial law nationwide even without formal proclamation

Within the first half of the six-year Duterte term, it was possible not only to have a permanent ceasefire but even a just and lasting peace based on social, economic and political reforms

As in Oplan Tokhang, the Duterte death squads have the license to kill just anyone and are emboldened to commit murders by presidential protection and incentives in cash and promotion in rank

imposing their greedy will on the proper bodies within the AFP in order to get their cuts from military purchase contracts with foreign suppliers

In principle and in practical terms, the Memorandum at least puts China at par with the Philippines, despite the fact that the Philippines has indisputably, according to international law and final court judgment, the sovereign rights and sole ownership of and authority over the oil, gas and other resources in any possible “relevant area” or “working area” in the West Philippine Sea.
