I don't think so, but the possibility of violence is not improbable if Bong Marcos Jr. ignorantly assumes he can escape the Philippines unscathed to be with his family along with his deceased father's embezzled money parked in the U.S. and Swiss banks. Not to mention that the Philippines is actually not that enamored with the idea of going to war with China due to the decentralization of news from the help and proliferation of smartphones and social media like Tiktok, Facebook etc. Plus, Duterte the former president still has some sway within the Philippine political landscape.
If the China vs Philippines were happening a decade or two ago, then for sure, I am more than inclined to agree with your theory. But in today's social media landscape, the shaping of narrative has become more challenging and expensive for the western backed elites. Go ask
@ansy1968 or
@coolgod and other members of this forum who are from there and or frequent travelers to the island country.
