    they need an excuse to not give discounted arms deals to countries that are outside the interest of their country, despite the Philippines being a country that has been with a pro-U.S. government, and relatively pro-U.S. general outlook--a country who has maintained superb relations with the U.S..

    I think there's an element of truth in what you're saying, that strategic value trumps diplomatic relations, but I also suspect that being a one-time US colony they also feel responsible for our ethical progress and development.

    Mao gyud na ang nature sa atong goberno. Pero ang sakto unta "If you want peace, prepare for war." I say with or without war, its the country's obligation to protect its people. Pero ni order na Noy2x gahapon bai murag naa duha ka F-16 mu abot.

    As usual indefinite.

    MALACAÑANG on Wednesday said that President Benigno Aquino 3rd will ask the United States to deliver at least two F-16 fighter jets to boost the defense capability of the country.

    Presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda said that the government has already sent its formal request to Washington.

    “Well, we confirm that we were asking for F-15 jets and also—F-16, sorry. But again, that is subject to a decision on the part of US whether to accede to our request. We’ve asked for two ships already, the Hamilton cutter. We’ve asked and it’s up to the US government whether to accede to our request for the US fighter jets,” he added.

    Aquino had set aside P10 billion for the acquisition of war material, which will also be used to respond to calamities and disasters.
