Matching words with deeds

Evidence abounds that the Philippines is not matching its words with deeds. It lacks sincerity in solving the South China Sea dispute with China in peace.

On Sunday, the Philippines' media reported that the country's navy will soon finish its second construction on Feixin Island, part of the Nansha Islands, which belong to China.

Feixin Island, called Patag by the Philippines, is the sixth largest among the nine islands being occupied by the Philippines in the disputed waters.
