“There was no travel before”…

Huh. It fails to mention the international tributary ruling in the Philippines favor a few years ago. Or the artificial islands china has built in the area.

This was an issue that should’ve been settled two presidential administrations ago.

The way it’s being reported in the world news is… very lacking. The worst I’ve heard and seen are small fishing boats being “ran over” by Chinese ships and the fisherman left stranded in the water for days.

This news was actually recent and is still talked about locally in the Philippines.

My mom sat me down to remind me of this, since I’m starting to get more responsibilities in my first job. She learned it through years of being in management positions and taking higher level classes for human management.

And y’all are getting this lesson for free on lemmy. This is why I love people and the internet.
