Ang takot lang kay Ms. Cielo, Ms. Heidi, Hon. Leila, at Hon. Diokno, ay ang mga kurap at masamang balak. Sa tindi ng siyasat nila, walang lusot ang kalokohan nila.
Akbayan Party-list Rep. Percival Cendaรฑa on Thursday warned that Chinaโs alleged consideration of retaliatory measures against the Philippines could further escalate tensions between the two countries, following a report that Beijing was weighing sanctions and possible cuts in oil and fertilizer supplies.
โIt is very disappointing that the Chinese government would contemplate an inordinately harsh response to Filipinos' calls for accountability from a Chinese diplomatic official,โ Cendaรฑa says.
โWe should also take note that these kinds of utterances not only escalate tensions between our two countries but also embolden cynical political actors in the Philippines who are willing to undermine our sovereignty to gain political power,โ he added.

Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro Jr. slammed Chinese Ambassador Jing Quan on Thursday, accusing him of deliberately provoking Philippine authorities, gaslighting the public, and crossing diplomatic lines.
Together with our fellow lawmakers in the House of Representatives, we filed House Resolution No. 1562 urging President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to declare Chinese Ambassador Jing Quan persona non grata or request his recall by the Chinese government.
We Filipinos are hospitable people. We want peace, not war.
Pero bilang Pilipino, hindi katanggap-tanggap at hindi tayo papayag na bastusin, pagbantaan, kamkamin ang ating teritoryo, sirain ang ating likas na yaman, at pagkaitan ng kabuhayan ang ating mga kababayan, lalo na sa atin mismong bansa.
Lagi tayong maninindigan, hindi sa interes ng dayuhan, kundi para sa Pilipino at sa Pilipinas.

โDIPLOMASYANG IDINADAAN SA GARAPALANG PAGBABANTAโ
Tinawag ni Mamamayang Liberal Rep. Leila de Lima na isa pang kaso ng pagbabanta at intimidation ng China ang naging pahayag ng Chinese Embassy sa isang social media post.
Kasunod ito ng โPut on record. You are now on the listโ remark ng embahada kaugnay ng panawagan ng ilang House legislators kay Pres. Bongbong Marcos na manindigan laban sa Chinese aggression at ikonsidera ang apelang expulsion para kay Chinese Ambassador Jing Quan.
Giit ni de Lima, honored at proud siyang mapasama sa listahan kung tumutukoy ito sa mga taong tumatangging yumukod sa kanilang kasinungalingan at propaganda.
โTutal may palista-lista pa silang nalalaman, baka gusto nilang ilabas na rin 'yung listahan naman ng mga tahimik lang sa panggigipit nila, mga sunud-sunuran at mga tagapagtanggol nila?โ hamon niya.
