under president rodrigo duterte, relations with america have deteriorated, calling into question theliance. his foreign minister may have told beijing to f off, but in the past, president duterte has made no bones about steering the country towards closer ties with china. president duterte recently said he does not respect the 2016 arbitration ruling that handed his country a legal victory over china. representative neri colmenares is a member of the left wing philippine opposition coalition, bayan muna. the moment the president of the philippines says that he will throw it in the trashcan, that can be used by china to justify its encroachment of the entire south china sea, so for us, it is this really treacherous on the part of the president to disavow or at least set aside a decision that is really a major victory, notjust for the philippines, but for other countries that are being trampled upon by china in the south china sea. president duterte�*s secretary for foreign affairs denies that chinese financial aid influences philippine policy. it is our final day at sea. in the last y

the key question for someone like president duterte who really has taken the country in an authoritarian direction is how best to copy the political agenda. the solution for it is to use this information in new ways via facebook, in particular in order to intimidate critics, to manipulate information, to promote his political narrative, essentially propaganda, and to essentially distort what people see and what citizens view and consume. so in that extent it's different than what you would think of in terms of omission state tracking citizens. in the philippines it's much more about information manipulation. on the china question, what's also interesting is the philippines has been traditionally a u.s. ally. in recent years with dutra take you started to embrace the chinese and they've invested in some projects including a big mess of project in manila. in the last year though there's been a little bit of a pullback would comes to him questioning whether going in with china is in the best interest but it's a bit of often on type relationship where on one hand there is investment and cert

it is something president duterte has been a pioneer in doing, but it has a lot of links to what we see with other leaders in the u.s., in liberal democracies, as well. host: i want to go back to something you said earlier about china not being a leader. when you think of surveillance censorship and disinformation, persecution, often one things about china. guest: right. the nuance is this. china is demonstrating kind of, broadly speaking, the ways in which technology can be used towards oppressive ends. the evidence of that in particular when it comes to xinjiang is a chilling model that others have looked to as examples. when it comes to individual leader decisions, i think there are a couple of important aspects. one is which, a lot of leaders cannot embrace the chinese model without getting public backlash. if you look at a place like thailand where i have conducted a ton of interviews, a lot of intelligence officers said even if they think some of these methods would be useful to them, to directly embrace chinese mass surveillance is something that would immediately cause a backlas
