LAOAG, Philippines — US and Filipino troops fired missiles and artillery at an imaginary "invasion" force during war games on the Philippines' northern coast Monday, days after their governments objected to China's "dangerous" actions in regional waters. Beijing claims almost the entire South China Sea despite an international ruling that its assertion has no legal basis. Just last week, Manila said the China Coast Guard damaged a Philippine Coast Guard ship and another government vessel in water cannon attacks around the disputed China-controlled Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea on April 30. The ministers "discussed opportunities to further advance defence cooperation" and to "work together to support states exercising their rights and freedoms in the South China Sea". The US Marine Corps said the manoeuvre was a rehearsal for the rapid deployment of the missile system across the Philippines' South China Sea coast to "secure and protect Philippines' maritime terrain, territorial waters and exclusive economic zone interests".

When ‘surrendering’ is winningLast week, my family and I spent an invigorating weekend on the beach. One clear day, we set out to sea to feed the fish, do some snorkeling and free diving. Sitting at the edge of the boat, feet dangling in the water, I was about to take the leap. One of the portions of the multi-trip zipline journey was to go down the zipline back facing the next stop. There is a part of Hawkins’ book that tells us: “When we look at our lives, we will see the residual of past life crises which are still unresolved.

MANILA, Philippines — Following allegations of “degrading and traumatic” strip search at the New Bilibid Prison (NBP), the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) said its jail officers only conduct the procedure to visitors they highly suspect to be carrying contraband. “These, however, are done in a professional manner and with utmost consideration to protect the interest also of the person being subjected to such,” he added. “Simply put, any person who will not submit themselves to our security protocols has no business entering the same,” he added. BuCor’s statement came after wives of political prisoners filed a complaint before the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) earlier Monday. Members of Kapatid, a support organization for the families of political prisoners, claimed they were subjected to degrading and traumatic “strip search” at the NBP during their last visit on April 21.

Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr said on Monday the country will not use water cannons or any offensive weapons in the South China Sea. The last thing the Philippines wants to do is to raise tensions in the strategic waterway, Marcos told reporters. Last week, Manila protested Beijing's use of water cannons against Filipino vessels at a disputed shoal in the South China Sea, describing it as harassment and "dangerous manoeuvres", after a rise in tensions in recent months. China claims sovereignty over much of the South China Sea, a conduit for more than $3 trillion of annual ship-borne commerce, including parts claimed by the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei. An international tribunal in 2016 said China's expansive claim had no legal basis, a decision Beijing has rejected.

That came in a joint appeal by 15 medical groups, including the Hong Kong Paediatric Society, the Hong Kong Society for Infectious Diseases and the Hong Kong Geriatric Society, along with Legislative Council members David Lam Tzit-yuen and Rebecca Chan Hoi-yan. They emphasized the "absolute necessity" of vaccinations for high-risk individuals in order to prevent severe illness, hospitalization and even death. "They can also bring viruses back home, putting high-risk individuals at risk." The medical professionals stressed the importance of parents and caregivers taking high-risk individuals to get vaccinated against both seasonal flu and Covid-19 as soon as possible to safeguard their health.

'This charade must stop:' DND denies backing 'new model' with ChinaGilberto "Gibo" Teodoro Jr. holds his first press briefing as the newly appointed secretary of the Department of National Defense (DND) in Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City on June 07, 2023. MANILA, Philippines — The Department of National Defense has denied greenlighting a supposed "new model" between the Philippines and China as claimed by the Chinese Embassy on Saturday, describing the embassy's statements as a "charade" that "must stop." The Chinese Embassy said that the supposed "gentlemen's agreement" or the "new model" was meant to be a confidence-building measure to avoid conflicts and had "nothing to do with each country's sovereign positions." Rebuffing China, Teodoro said that he had barred all contact between teh DND and the Chinese Embassy since the courtesy call of Ambassador Huang Xilian since July 2023. "During the said courtesy call, there was no discussion or briefing on any "gentleman's agreement" or "new model", which is contrary to the Chinese Embassy's pronouncements," Teodoro said.
