Manila has duty of protection

Philippine government should match its words with deeds and take resolute actions to bring murderers of Chinese citizens to justice

A total of 12 kidnappings, 10 murders and three robberies targeted at Chinese citizens have occurred in the Philippines from Jan 1 to Sept 18, in which 18 Chinese nationals were killed and another 12 were victims of thefts, statistics from the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines have indicated.

Regrettably, no murderers, robbers or thieves have so far been prosecuted or even detained by the Philippine authorities.
