Pro-China X (formerly Twitter) accounts are running a coordinated campaign against President Marcos Jr. and the Philippines’ West PH Sea efforts while amplifying content favoring VP Sara Duterte.
A Facebook user posted a reel showing the photo of President Xi Jinping and President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and falsely claimed that the Philippines and China had finally reconciled.
Applying it to a giant board, the West Philippine Sea, China has displayed mastery of the game, gaining more uninhabited features by deploying dozens of Navy, Coast Guard, and militia vessels.
