that is more than the average daily wage in the philippines. me about scarborough shoal is how fitting the name is. it is an old english word for shallow and everywhere i have looked, it has been maybe chest height maximum. even how flat it is, it is an ideal place for land reclamation and china have a long history in doing exactly that. scarborough shoal isn't the only reef in the south china sea that china has taken an interest in. satellite images from 2012 to 2020 of mischief reef in the spratly islands reveal it is slowly being transformed into a muscular military base complete with airstrips and anti—aircraft guns. at this reef and six others in the spratlys, china dredge sand and rock onto coral reef, turning them into artificial islands. similar islands have been transformed where china maintains a constant presence. some believe if beijing builds on scarborough shoal it will completely control access to the south china sea. tensions rose this year when china began swarming reefs and rocks with hundreds of votes in the spratly islands. p

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 certain technologies that potentially could be used for oppression but on the other hand, there's been more recent distancing and he said wait a sec, i don't know if it's really, is partnership rhythmic sense force. >> host: but that social media manipulation you referred to in the philippines, that's happening and more pure democracy as well, is it? >> guest: that right. you see parallels with what, when it comes to the disinformation question and the united states, and countries in europe and so forth and the

military in the southern philippines. you know, it is quite a nerve wracking situation for the military, because if we look at the situation starting this year, this is the 3rd case of a, the asian accident for the philippine air air force. since this year. they said that today is a period of morning that all flags will be flown that have mass. but he also said that, you know, this by this period the morning that there's a full blown investigation that's on their way. investigators have already arrived this morning in law and, you know, based on the initial investigation, they said that, you know, it seems that, you know, the, the plane actually landed well within the protocols that were required. they also said it's unlikely that it's going to be pilot error, but they said they are determined to find out what's actually transpired. now because of this situation, they said they used to have for the 130, the philippine military. they are grounding the, remain that one that remains in the philippines as being used and to rem

in the philippines, it is much more about information manipulation. e china question, what's also interesting is the philippines has been traditionally a u.s. ally. in recent years, dutere has started to embrace the chinese and they have invested in some projects, including a big, mass surveillance project in manila. in the last year, though, there has been a pullback when it comes to dutere questioning whether going in with china is a good idea and in its best interests. so it is a bit of an off and on relationship, where on the one hand there is investment in certain technologies, but on the other hand more recent distancing. peter: but that social media manipulation you referred to in the philippines, that is happening in more pure democracies as well, isn't it? steven: that is right, you see a lot of parallels with what you're seeing with regards to the disinformation question in the united states and countries in europe. there are a lot of parallels when it comes to this illiberal strain, this populous outrage stoked by social media and these auth

actually face legal challenges here in the philippines. but what was mentioned earlier is that it does not change the original document of the visiting force agreement. and more importantly, the visiting force agreement holler, will focus on the modernization of the philippine military, around $300.00 bilateral exercises starting next month. we're talking about the boost of counterterrorism operations in the southern philippines in the mean the in the menda now region and more importantly, maritime enhanced maritime cooperation in the south china sea, where it's shina looms large over the philippines. or were there is or is controlled by the philippines with its expensive build up of islands and reeds that are also controlled not just by the philippines but by other claimant countries. so this is a development, possibly a full restoration of scale down the activities. and basically a kind of counter balance of this growing influence of china over the administration. jimmy lynn and i'm going to in manila. thank you. another 27 co with 19 inf

and the philippines in, in the, in the south china sea. as the influence obviously, of china looms large on there at the administration. many people, many here actually see that this is a welcome development that the visit of secretary austin was a boost, but he was something that was carefully negotiated quietly by the defense establishment here. and foreign affairs officials, both here and the us. so how significance would you say this meeting was jamila? while it's, it's significant in a sense that as the parent the enters his final year in office, basically a lot of the scaled down activities that, that were basically a lot of activities that were scaled down over the past 2 years since it took off is, are going to be put back. it means though that we're expecting more us troops to be rotating here in the philippines. more defense cooperation, and has maritime secured security training. and although lastly, the read it, this actually comes as a surprise to many majority of the people who are here in the philippines filipinos to fight t

military in the southern philippines. based on the latest initial report that we've been given, coming from the secretary of defense, 17 bodies have been pulled out. 40 people have also been 17 bodies have been put out for 40 survivors at this point, but some are in critical condition. so we did crash in the cool, which is about an hour away from the law, which is also, you know, like i mentioned the what, perhaps the most minute, the right area in the southern philippines, it is home to thousands of troops, but also home to several are groups that morris climate liberation front the group? so the initial report that we're getting is that this particular c $130.00 was on its way to transport soldiers in hello when it happened or i thank you very much for that. we will be coming back to you as more information comes to hand. thank you very much for that for now. jimmy. doug, there has been more mass protest, the cross brazil, demanding president jaya, both the not all resigned and allegedly corrupt vaccine deal have galvani
