A party-list group has asked President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to expel Chinese Ambassador to the Philippines Huang Xilian for his statements where he appeared to bring up the safety of overseas workers in discussing the China-Taiwan tension. |GabrielLaluINQ
“We call on the Marcos administration to immediately declare the Chinese ambassador persona non grata and expel him from our country. Xilian is a hostage-taker, not an ambassador. We don’t negotiate with hostage takers. He has no right to threaten our citizens while enjoying our country’s hospitality,” it added.
During a forum last Friday organized by the Association for Philippine-China Understanding, Huang said that the establishment of new Edca sites does not benefit the OFWs because it is China which seeks to avoid conflict in the region. “The Philippines is advised to unequivocally oppose ‘Taiwan independence’ rather than stoking the fire by offering the US access to the military bases near the Taiwan Strait if you care genuinely about the 150,000 ,” Huang said.
“Some tried to find excuses for the new Edca sites by citing the safety of the 150,000 OFWs in Taiwan, while China is the last country that wishes to see conflict over the Strait because people on both sides are Chinese,” he added.
