"if I can buy a Philippines made mouse for my laptop over a Chinese one, I'll buy the Philippines made every time."
and what do you think will be the future if everyone does that - which would create a huge offshoring industry - that would make the Philippines one of the largest economies on earth inside a decade and a bit - as it did China??
do you realise that you would have the same kind of problem - just with a different name and a slightly different location??
how do you think the world would sit with someone like Rodrigo Duterte as head of the second largest global economy???
look pretty does it?
How about Indonesia? -------- one of the largest populations on the planet - turn them into the one of the largest economies on earth - that would give them enough cash to find pilots who can actually fly war planes - of which they would be able to afford thousands --
wow -- that's a great idea right there
believe me ------- the solution to starving China ----------------- that's the 's' word that equates to 'containing China' --- heard of that one have you??
read the Pentagon papers for an explanation of it -
anyway - your solution is a bandaid and a kiss better -- for a huge underlying problem --
the problem lies underneath - and, you will find - in the case of China that the rise of Xi is exactly the same reason for the rise of Nazi -
because some turkey had forced conditions on their nation that enabled the growth of such beliefs and discomfort -
you don't need a bandaid - you need to cut out the actual seat of the infection -
and, in this case --- it's American 'containment' policy
your band aid would just transfer the problem from China to the Philippines - or some other nation that the USA would decide in it's infinite wisdom - has to be - 'contained'
