MANILA, Philippines – One can’t help but wonder if there is an end — and what will it look like — to the growing tensions between the Philippines and China.
For retired general Jose Almonte, who served as national security adviser under president Fidel V. Ramos, protecting the country’s sovereignty in the West Philippine Sea requires adopting a “long-term solution.”
On Friday, October 4, Rappler editor-at-large Marites Vitug sits down with Almonte for an exclusive interview — his first in a long time — to discuss lessons learned from his years dealing with China and how these could be applied by the present Marcos administration and future presidents.
Almonte is considered the most influential national security adviser following the restoration of democracy in the Philippines after Martial Law. The Ramos administration, a time that saw China grabbing Mischief Reef in 1995, gave premium to transparency as it faced challenges related to the country’s marine resources.
How can the Philippines even win against the global superpower? What does this “long-term solution” even mean? Catch the interview on Friday, October 4, at 6 pm! – Rappler.com
