Pretty good video on current military partnership between Philippines and USA, but major exercises were conducted in the 1960s thru 1991 and beyond. This is more of a reset of relationship thru signing of new treaty / agreement.

This video didn't mention the Japanese forces and island chain to the north of Taiwan. Japan is all in to fight china, and they have a credible Navy that can punch above their weight. The Filipinos too. They are tough people with a fighting spirit.

All the Philippines wanted was respect of its sovereign terrority yet China being a bully seeing PH as inferior ignored its demands. China could have gave PH what it wanted, build closer ties and could have had its troops on those bases. Now its US troops there causing more problems for China should they decide to invade Taiwan.
