I doubt they have "good intentions" for they only have money-making intentions and that is all. |

The US interest here will end up like what happened in Ukraine, it will go down the trashcan and will never see the light of day. The US should be more concerned with their own problems and give their citizens priority first and not be involve in other nations internal affairs. |

of course its all about money. but the other to consider is what about the local govt there what is their opinion on this, remember we are easily bribe, so they can bribe this local officials too and go along with the plan but if the local leadership there are honest and nationalist then they will first look at the interest of the people they serve then get the best offer. the thing is the country need to exploit and manage its untapped natural resources wether it be mining or oil to improve the standard of living in Mindanao and fight poverty. the only thing im concerned is when they start the mining operations and oil the local govt and national govt better make sure that its in a sustainable way and not to destroy the environment like unregulated and unchecked damping of chemicals in the rivers and at sea without first neutralizing it. see the people has to decide because for sure under massive mining operations there will a lot of pollution by air and water and also they have to monitor the water wells or natural drinking water wells for presence of toxic chemicals. this are the problems that need to be addressed. under strick guidelines, the pollution can be reduced, monitored etc. even agricultural plantations causes pollution in their applications of herbicides, pesticides, commercial fertilizers etc. that will later seep into the drinking water. but again if strictly regulated and monitored it can be safe and improve the life in Mindanaoans |

I rather stay here and maintain my up-close and personal vigilance and monitoring here in Mindanao. I spoke with my uncle and he stated that a lot of major players wants access to Mindanao's rich resources, some even started negotiating with my uncle and his partners to gain access to his mines and other locations as well. Funny thing is that they were more credible and offered and far more superior offer than the American's who were big at first but soon they realize that they were cheap and worthless in the long run. |

That is the most contradictory statement one would had ever said on MILF. Why would USA support MILF? It is like shooting herself in the foot. Ganyan-ganyan din ang sinabi ko noong guest speaker ako sa isang security forum dito sa Canada. Bakit ko sinabi? Inabutan ako ng 2000 dollars ng kitay. Well, to keep my cover intact, I did it. Grey areas in double agentry you can attribute to me. Pero kay Estrada, knowing him to be super-corrupt, eh he is not playing the double game. There is really criminal intent. |

edit button deleted That is what the problem is when somebody or a new president gets elected. There will always either be a Russian, Chinese, Cuban, Vietnamese or French mole among his advisers. Who sc***** up Arroyo? The Chinese moles who either acted as cordon sanitaire for China or surrendered our codes in SIGNT!! Bitay sa akin lahat yan pag ako. Bitay!! Who worked clandestinely to expel the US military bases acting as cordon sanitaire for China? Estrada! Now we cannot convolute arguments in the Supreme Court for US Army support to fight insurgency..Bitay lahat yan. |

According to my uncle's business partners the reason why the US would support the MILF is that they can be a direct seller of the natural resources of Mindanao like in Africa, instead of going to the government and pay a huge amount to the government from rights, licenses and profits why not just talk and pay the local warlord who has no knowledge of the riches under his feet. |

The costs cannot offset the resulting repercussions. Only Obama has the capacity to put or apply malice in such decision. Knowing him to be somebody who reneged on the contract for Canada to construct a pipeline through USA but passing the right to China, well, I would not wonder. As I said, I was bribed 2 thousand dollars by a Chinese agent to say something to that effect in a security forum. Anything derogatory to USA is good for China. |
