RE: Philippines will be the next victim of China's debt trap

in #philippines7 years ago

Wow, this brings an aspect of China's power plays that I wasn't really aware of before. From China's perspective, they get a lot more influence if other countries owe them money, so it's great for them. It's such a good deal that their workers get the jobs... they could at least have local labor do the work, geez

I appreciate that you're sharing this information as well as the recommendation that the Philippines pursue a different course of action; I sure hope the Chinese government isn't paying Duterte personally!
