Interesting Points about VFAs – February 18, 2020

Just some interesting points on this article by One News:

* Japan is reportedly eager to sign a Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) with the Philippines, but that the agreement will be modeled after the one signed by the Philippines and Australia. The process for the signing of the VFA with Japan is expected to be accelerated now that the Philippines’ VFA with the US will be terminated by August 2020.

* Singapore is another country which the Philippines could revive a VFA with.

* The United States (US) reportedly refused to help the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) when it ran out of Ammunition fighting the Muslim Rebellion in the South during the time of President Ferdinand Marcos Sr.
