The Philippine foreign minister curses out China

The EU suspends its big China investment deal

And why Chinese clergy love the motherland

Thad more on this week's China news headlines

Welcome to China Uncensored, I'm Chris  Chappell. This week's China news headlines.

The Philippines is getting pretty fed  up with the Chinese Communist Party  

constantly encroaching on its territorial waters.  

And some Filipino officials are expressing  it in some pretty colorful ways.

Chinese ships have been mooring  in disputed territorial waters.

And here's a tweet from the  Philippine Foreign Minister,  

Teodoro “Teddy Boy” Locsinresponding to that.

China, my friend, how politely can I put it?  Let me see… O…GET THE FUCK OUT. What are you  

doing to our friendship? You. Not us. We're  trying. You. You're like an ugly oaf forcing  

your attentions on a handsome guy who wants to  be a friend; not to father a Chinese province …

I think Teddy Boy here might  be my favorite politician now. 

Imagine if all officials talked to  the Chinese Communist Party like that.

Hey you ugly oaf, we're going to circle back  and kick your butts out of the South China Sea! 

China responded to Locsin's tweet  by calling for basic manners.

Yes, the country that uses  gang rape as a form of torture  

is lecutring the Philippines about manners.

Anyway, Locsin has since apologized  to China's Foreign Minister, Wang Yi.

While also bragging about being the original  

Wolf Warrior diplomat. He  sounds like an interesting guy.

Meanwhile, President Duterte's spokesperson  reminded Philippine officials that profanity  

has no place in diplomacy. Duterte added, “I am the only one who can curse.”

And for clarity, that's not a joke,  that's what Duterte actually said.

But in a move that could be even  more explosive than a Twitter fight,  

the Philippines has also rejected a fishing  ban put in place by the Chinese Coast Guard,  

saying that Filipino fishing boats should  keep on fishing in their territorial waters.

The Phillipine Coast Guard is  also continuing to challenge  

Chinese maritime militia  vessels in the South China Sea.

I'm just waiting for Chinese officials to tell the  

Philippine Coast Guard to  mind their basic manners.

Speaking of manners, China's Political  and Legal Affairs Commission—one of the  

top Party organizations—posted this to their  Weibo account, China's version of Twitter.  

The text says “China lighting a fire  versus India lighting a fire.” It compares  

China's space launch, to India burning  bodies of people that died from Covid-19.

Now obviously, this lack of sensitivity  upset like a BILLION PEOPLE.

And then Chinese authorities deleted  the post amid a huge backlash.

Even the editor in chief of my favorite Chinese  state-run media, The Global Times, said China's  

official social media accounts should “hold  high the banner of humanitarianism at this time,  

show sympathy for India, and firmly place  Chinese society on a moral high ground.”

When even the Global Times says a meme was  too nationalistic, you know it went too far.

But I don't think the Global Times or the Chinese  Communist Party are upset about being insensitive.  

They're upset because they overplayed their  hand, at a time when they're trying to woo  

India by being really helpful during  their current coronavirus crisis.

It's more than just vaccine diplomacy.  It's oxygen concentrator diplomacy.

All this is happening at a time when India is  trying to ally with the West to counter China.

You know, because China keeps trying  to take Indian border territory.

And because China covered  up the deadly coronavirus,  

which is why it spread to India, which is  why India has to cremate so many bodies!

And more fun China news,  coming up after the break.

You may have heard of Cuban refugees,  risking their lives to flee to America. 

But now a Chinese man, seeking 'freedom and  equality' says he traveled to Taiwan in a dinghy.

It took him 10 hours to make the 100-plus  mile journey across the Taiwan Strait  

in a small rubber boat,  powered by an outboard motor.

Taiwan police arrested him at the port  of Taichung. When they asked if his  

life was bad in mainland China, “Zhou said he  believed life in China 'is all kinds of bad.'”

It's looking like the EU has effectively suspended  its proposed mega investment deal with China.

The deal is not officially dead, but an  official from the European Commission  

said that they've basically  stopped pushing for it.

It's going to be hard to get the  European parliament to vote in favor  

of an investment deal with China, when China is  sanctioning members of the European parliament.

That investment deal was signed at the  end of December, spearheaded by Germany.  

Got to get those German  cars into the China market!

But then in March, the EU sanctioned  Chinese officials for the genocide  

of ethnic Uyghurs in Xinjiang. China  responded by sanctioning EU officials,  

and now things are just kind of a  mess. Who could have predicted that?

The EU has also laid out new rules on foreign  

investment that will make  things tougher for China.

If approved, the rules would give EU  antitrust authorities a lot of power  

to block investments from Chinese companies.  

The Chinese regime has used business investments  as a way to infiltrate and undermine the EU.

“The new regulation would help address rising  European concerns that Chinese businesses,  

bolstered by state support, are  competing unfairly around the world,  

making rock-bottom bids at public tenders and  offering unbeatable premiums for acquisitions.”

Of course the rules aren't targeting  China. No, they're just about  

foreign investment. From no country in particular.

Now I don't often do this on the show, but  

I want to talk to you about Jesus.  Jesus told us to love thy neighbor.

And as an extension of that, new  rules for religious clergy in China  

dictate that clergy should “love the motherland.”

Clergy should also “support the leadership  of the Chinese Communist Party,”  

and “practice the core socialist values.”

It's in the Bible. Somewhere.  I think it's in Corinthians  

with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. Now for some reason, these new regulations  

have some asking if Christians  are next in line for reeducation.

“Authorities in China are detaining Christians in  

secretive, mobile 'transformation' facilities  to make them renounce their faith.”

There's also reports of a crackdown  on Christians using social media.

But the Chinese Communist Party may reap  what it sows. Retribution may be coming.  

Chinese state run media are warning  about the risks of rising sea levels...

If that happens, they're going to need  someone to part the waters—and he'll  

And that my friends is the kind of humor 7  years of Catholic school education will get you!
