President Duterte sought stronger ties with China on the 45th anniversary of the two countries’ diplomatic relations and said that threats like the COVID-19 pandemic could push the partnership to “take on even greater significance.”

The President has established close ties with Beijing since coming into power in 2016 and has been accused of being soft on China when it comes to conflicting claims over the South China Sea.

On Pag-asa Island in the disputed Spratlys, defense officials and journalists received the greetings “Welcome to China!’’ and “Welcome to Vietnam!’’ on their mobile phones shortly after they landed for the inauguration of the island’s beaching ramp early this week. “The act of remembering is crucial in order for us to stand up for our rights in the face of persistent bullying and injustice,” added the former diplomat who spearheaded the successful legal challenge to China’s expansive territorial claims that led to the landmark arbitral ruling favoring the Philippines.
