Must Watch: Duterte turned the Philippines into a powerful nation capable of changing the balance of power.

President Rodrigo Duterte is an student of geopolitics and he understands the value and the importance of the Philippines' geographic location.

While the US makes light of our significance, it is in reality through us that they can keep up their energy and task US strength in the district.

Since Duterte comprehended our nation's an incentive to the United States he also saw the how important we are to China.

Although we have been a loyal ally of the United States, they have not given us the "value" and "importance" we deserve and this is where some of Duterte's misgivings at the US is rooted.

China, on the other hand, is eager to show we are special.

Should there be a state of war or trade embargo with the US, China knows that they will be trapped because its access to the Pacific is blocked by US and its allies. They have to find a way out and the Philippines can offer that opening.

In the north, China's entrance to the Pacific is blocked by Japan and Taiwan. In the south, the Philippines blocks them.


In case of a contention between the United States and China, the US allies in the region can easily choke them.

If the Philippines becomes neutral, the Chinese will have safe passage for its boats or air ship so it can keep on trading with whatever remains of the world.

As of now, the United States dominates power in the region and they can undoubtedly strangle the Chinese at whatever point they need to.

Duterte's turn to make the Philippines an neutral country  will punch an opening in the US's Asian defense alliance and alter the balance of power.
