Rody slams China over WP Sea
Excerpt
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has urged China to “temper” its behavior in the South China Sea in a rare criticism of the Asian superpower over its program of island-building in disputed waters. China has alarmed and angered its neighbors by claiming dominion over most of the South China Sea and building a string of artificial islands and military airbases. But the outspoken Duterte—keen to court trade and investment from Beijing—has mostly withheld criticism.
