That can be me bro, its back to Elder Marcos tactic during Martial law of false accusation and intimidation, its back to traditional politics of Gun, Goons and Gold.

Its quite a disturbing development since such actions can escalate to profiling and the normalization of general racism towards Chinoys. This is despite the fact that a significant portion of the PH economic growth is due to the contribution of Chinese Filipinos.

Even more concerning, is that it seems the majority of Chinese Filipinos are in a state of disunity, I don't see any powerful Chinese Filipino lobby group in the PH that can apply its influence on the government to stop Sinophobic actions such as this incident.

What are your thoughts on this? Will there ever be a time when Chinese Filipinos will push for their rights and have their voices heard? Its just frustrating to see how the current PH government is resorting to Sinophobic tactics to push its destructive agenda, which is most likely encouraged by the US.

It's a double edge sword bro, Chinoy had benefit hugely from the current set up cause we know how to create wealth. The oligarchs or the landed gentry who are mostly rent seekers don't. So we had to thread carefully and like a Bamboo knows where the wind blows. The new generation of Chinoy who had entered politics are corrupted by the systems, they were co opted, like the Chinese Mestisos, it is easy to legislate your way to prosperity unlike their forefathers before who believed in hard work.
