| Summary: | This paper sets out to explore the role of domestic politics in the shaping and
implementing of Philippine foreign policy and its relations with China. It examines
how domestic politics have driven Philippine foreign policy behaviour towards China;
whether the Philippine Government has successfully managed the domestic drivers in
promoting the state’s interests in its relations with China, and whether there are major
constraints that have prevented the attainment of more desirable outcomes in the
bilateral ties. It looks at three cases: the Philippines-China joint marine seismic
undertaking in the South China Sea; China’s participation in the national broadband
network project and a railway project; and Philippine reactions to China’s execution
of three Filipino drug mules. |
