Last of 3 partsFOLLOWING is a slightly edited discussion on the third of three initiatives I had proposed in my 2022 book 'Debacle: The Aquino Regime's Scarborough Fiasco and the South China Sea Arbitration Deception,' which I think would send us on the path of resolving our disputes with China and other claimants in the South China Sea. Time to move on.
'Debacle' excerpt starts here:The overarching fallacy that underpins the US-crafted propaganda on our territorial and maritime-area disputes with the Chinese is the dogma that China is the world's new Evil Empire intent on grabbing the entire South China Sea and transforming its littoral states into vassals.
If not for the US pulling the wool over our eyes on the nature of the SCS disputes, China would appear to us not as a threat but dominantly as a huge investment area and trade market of 1.4 billion people, so physically closer to us than the American superpower. We are the only Asian nation so openly belligerent with China, and such an unabashed vassal to the US.
