Mayor Isko calls for deportation of Chinese nationals selling products labeled ‘Manila, province of China’
//Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso on Thursday asked the Bureau of Immigration (BI) to deport two Chinese nationals for selling beauty products tagging the country’s capital a province of China.
//This was after he ordered the closure of several establishments in Sto. Domingo, Binondo for the mislabeling that he said counts as misrepresentation.
//The Manila mayor said the erroneous label is “unacceptable.”
//Binondo is a part of Manila, and Manila is a part of the Philippines. Manila is the country’s capital. It is not a province of China. And not even once did it become a part of China in any article or written history during our time and the time of our ancestors),” he said in a mayoral address.
//Domagoso also slammed the foreigners he said are disrespecting the country’s sovereignty.
//Bureau of Permits and Licensing Office Director Levi Facundo said they will revoke the mayor’s permit of the corporation. The FDA is also set to cancel Elegant Fumes Beauty Products, Inc.’s license to operate.

🇯🇵🇺🇸🇦🇺🇵🇭 Japan, US, Australia eye ship deployment to Philippines for drill
Japan, the United States and Australia are considering sending their vessels carrying aircraft to the Philippines to conduct a trilateral naval drill next week in the South China Sea.
The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force has decided to send its largest destroyer, the Izumo, which is set to become a de facto aircraft carrier after undergoing additional renovation slated to begin next year or 2025.
The Royal Australian Navy will deploy its amphibious assault ship Canberra, while the US Navy is expected to send its amphibious assault ship America.
The exercise comes amid tensions between China and the Philippines after a Chinese coast guard vessel fired a water cannon at a Philippine military-chartered boat.
