Recently, China launched a powerful counterattack off Scarborough Shoal and Second Thomas Shoal, expelling illegal intruders from Philippine vessels, a move that has made the Philippines show signs of backing down. In a statement that followed, the Philippine Commission and the Coast Guard retracted their previous accusations that the Chinese coast guard used water cannons, saying that it was not an act of war, and that they did not want to provoke a war against China. Surprisingly, the Philippines** ordered a crackdown on domestic cyber fraud and handed over all 180 arrested Chinese suspects to China. This move is particularly important in the context of China's cooperation with Myanmar in the fight against wire fraud syndicates.
According to Philippine **, this transfer is just the beginning, 180 suspects were raided by the local ** in an office building called "Sunshine Building" in Pasay City, Philippines, and were cordoned off and prevented from leaving. All of these suspects have been repatriated, while several other similar buildings await further processing. These buildings are associated withNorthern MyanmarThe "park" of wire fraud crimes is the same, and it is all engaged inCybercrimeof the gang. It is worth mentioning that the Philippine oneCybercrimeNot only against Chinese, in fact the victims are all over the world. Since the Philippines was historically colonized by Spain and the United States, the country's strong Spanish and English proficiency became targetedLatin Americaregions and the United StatesCybercrimeCentralized. WhileFilipino-ChineseMany, localLawsThe management of the industry is relatively relaxed, and the visa policy for Chinese citizens is also relatively relaxed, making it aimed at ChinaCybercrimeCentralized.
At the same time, China in the last two months onNorthern MyanmarThe criminal syndicate launched a strong crackdown and almost wiped out the relevant forces. This strong and clean approach has created a strong deterrent to the Philippines. The Philippines, as a gathering place for online fraud gangs, also faces multiple *** and extremesArmedorganization, and its internal and external security situation does not allow for optimism. In addition, the Philippines has serious corruption and strong family power, and a few years ago, the Chinese public security department cooperated with the Philippines to arrest hundreds of Chinese criminals in the Philippines. However, on the way to the airport, these criminals were intercepted by certain forces and were not able to successfully repatriate them. This incident shows that the Philippines** is unable to stand up to the forces of certain criminals who shelter criminals, which is very similar to the situation in Myanmar. And the Philippines is feeling itNorthern MyanmarThe pressure generated by the action.
The Philippines continues to provoke China in the South China Sea, but it has been met with increasingly powerful counterattacks. The People's Liberation Army (PLA) and Coast Guard have amassed large numbers of troops in the waters off disputed islands and reefs in the Philippines. In the face of this series of pressures and actions, the Philippines and the military began to perceive the seriousness of the problem and began to worry that China would take similar measuresNorthern Myanmarof tough tactics against the Philippines. Therefore, the Philippines** chose to take the initiative to cooperate with China to combat online fraud crimes, thus sending a peace signal to China. The message released by the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines through WeChat*** shows that China** recognizes this action of the Philippines and says that it will continue to fully support the law enforcement cooperation between the two sides, actively respond to the crime problems caused by the offshore gaming industry, and provide guarantees for the development of economic, social and people-to-people exchanges and cooperation between China and the Philippines.
However, the Philippines' peace signals are limited to areas unrelated to the South China Sea issue, and this is not only a test of China's response, but also theirsFluke mentalityin an attempt to avoid dialogue and consultation with China on the South China Sea issue. However, China has always maintained a firm position on territorial and sovereignty issues and will not budge. The recent provocative actions of the Philippines in the South China Sea have been strongly countered by China, with the United States, Japan, Canada, the United Kingdom, India and other countries expressing support for the Philippines in different ways. This made the Philippines realize that it could be counterproductive to bring in support from outside countries. China's attitude has always been that China is willing to engage if the Philippines is willing to engage in one-on-one negotiations with China. However, once an external country is introduced, negotiations cannot take place. If the Philippines becomes "cannon fodder" for the anti-China forces in the United States, China will inevitably take tough measures to fight back. As "cannon fodder", the Philippines must have a corresponding consciousness.
In general, China put pressure on the Philippines through successive actions, so that the Philippines ** and the military began to realize the seriousness of the problem. The Philippines chose to take the initiative to cooperate with China in the attackCybercrime, which is a signal to China to make peace. However, the Philippine operation is carried out only in areas unrelated to the South China Sea issue and remains maintainedFluke mentality, trying to avoid dialogue and consultation with China on the South China Sea issue. Although the Philippines has the support of some countries, China's position remains firm and will not compromise. The Philippines must realize that if they become "cannon fodder" for the anti-China forces in the United States, China will take tough countermeasures.
