On WPS: Belmonte recommends for the PH to forge partnership with countries like Vietnam 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Charissa Luci-AtienzaFormer Speaker and outgoing Quezon City Rep. Feliciano Belmonte Jr. cited Saturday the need for the Philippines to forge partnership with Vietnam and other claimant countries, to address China’s aggression in the West Philippine Sea. Obviously we cannot do much militarily so we should ally with those countries having the same issues with China like Vietnam,” he said in an interview. Belmonte was part of the high-level delegation of executive and legislative officials to The Hague in 2015. He branded as “dubious and delusory” China’s alibi on the sinking the F/B Gim-Ver1 and attempted mass killing of 22 Filipino fishermen.
