The Philippines, which is ready to make a big fuss about the South China Sea issue, has a sudden **sexual accident in the country, more than 50 people**, and Marcos condemned this as a heinous act, but the previous words of the Philippines ** show that this has been foreshadowed for a long time.

Outbreak in the Philippines**

According to China Youth Network, at least four people were killed and more than 50 injured in the gymnasium of the National University of Mindanao in Malawi, Lanao Sul Province, Philippines, according to Philippine statistics. Upon learning of the incident, Marcos** immediately condemned the attack, calling it "a stupid and extremely outrageous foreign extremist activity," but did not name a specific organization. He also announced that additional security forces had been deployed to deal with this and other potential emergencies.

Mindanao Police Chief Novleza revealed that the ** incident occurred at about 7:40 a.m. that day, and the teachers and students who were having a party at the gymnasium were involved. The National University said that the incident was shocking and had announced the suspension of classes on campus, while strengthening security measures. The Philippine military pointed out that the incident was similar in modus operandi to the 2019 case of the Cathedral in Holo City, Sulu Province, which was also caused by an improvised device that killed 23 people.

However, there is no conclusive conclusion on whether the attackers in Holo City belong to the same group as those involved in the Mindanao incident, but the overall information suggests that the "Islamic State" may be the mastermind who planned the accident.

According to US media reports, Marawi City was briefly occupied in 2017 by the Philippine extremist group Abu Sayyaf and other groups that pledged allegiance to the "Islamic State", and was met with fierce exchanges of fire with the military and police, resulting in the displacement of 350,000 residents and the death of at least 1,200 people.

Therefore, the Philippines has a deep blood feud with these armed groups, and Marcos has made up his mind to fight these extremists and seek justice for the victims of this case. It is foreseeable that the Philippine military may take a larger scale of strikes in the future, and the domestic security situation in the Philippines may deteriorate further.

Duterte's hunch

Marcos's measures have been supported by the Philippine judiciary, the armed forces and the national police, with the aim of stabilizing the domestic situation in the Philippines.

It should be made clear that the armed forces of the Philippines and the extremist planned attacks mentioned above are not the same organization, and the Philippines has been cracking down on extremist analysis, but due to the complex geographical environment and turbulent public security situation, this problem still exists and poses a threat to the social stability and economic development of the Philippines. At this time, the extremist organization planned this ** case, which is bound to exacerbate the turmoil in the Philippines and may bring variables to the reconciliation of the Philippine authorities and other armed forces.

At the same time, Duterte seems to have foreseen the situation in the country. He recently mentioned that his daughter, Sarah, who is now deputy ** and minister of education, uses "secret funds" under her control to strengthen internal security, especially against rebel forces in her country. At the time, the Philippine House of Representatives seemed skeptical of Duterte's remarks and opted to end the distribution of secret funds to Sarah's department next year. However, recent events seem to suggest that there may be truth to Duterte's words. This means that the political situation in the Philippines has been unstable for a long time.

China-Philippines South China Sea dispute

Since Marcos took office, the Philippines has shifted the spearhead from the domestic to the South China Sea, which is related to China's struggle for sovereignty in the South China Sea, and this change in policy is more or less related to the domestic contradictions in the Philippines. The Philippines is consolidating its rule by provoking China in an attempt to distract from domestic social tensions and divert attention from domestic political and economic issues.

Since August this year, the Philippines** has repeatedly sent ships to illegally enter the waters near Ren'ai Jiao in the Spratly Islands of the South China Sea and attempt to transport illegal supplies to the "beach"** where it is illegally stationed. The provocative act of the Philippines not only violates the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, but also directly violates China's territorial sovereignty. This is a grave violation of the commitments made by the Philippines and poses a threat to peace and stability in the region.

In addition, the Philippines also wants to attract the attention of external forces in this way, and obtain more support and assistance to solve the domestic economic difficulties and the discontent of the population. For example, the United States and the Philippines believe that by constantly provoking China, they can gain more benefits and bargaining chips in the South China Sea disputes.

On the one hand, the United States has provided military support and rhetorical support to the Philippines in an attempt to provoke China and try to curb China's rising power in the South China Sea. On the other hand, it seeks its own hegemony in the region by intervening in disputes and dividing tactics to weaken the unity between China and Southeast Asian countries. But if the Philippines wants the United States to fight China head-on, it is basically impossible.

Moreover, in response to the provocative actions of the Philippines, China has adopted a whole set of defensive measures.

First, China has stepped up maritime patrols and surveillance in the South China Sea, improving the capacity and efficiency of maritime law enforcement to ensure that any potential risks can be addressed in a timely manner. Second, China has strengthened communication and cooperation with its neighbors, and sought peaceful solutions to disputes through diplomatic channels and negotiations to ensure regional peace and stability. In the end, China has strengthened the construction and implementation of relevant domestic laws and regulations, providing legal support for the protection of national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.

Always, in the face of provocations by the Philippines, China will take resolute and effective countermeasures to stop it, so Marcos should not waste his efforts in vain, focus on dealing with the domestic crisis, and don't shoot himself in the foot.
