Ex- foreign secretary advice on PH-China relations: avoid harsh rhetoric

Roberto R. RomuloEnriched by having dealt with issues at close range and without the restrictions of toeing the government line, former government officials usually are the voice of wisdom on current issues.

Such was speech of former Foreign Secretary Roberto R. Romulo (Ramos administration) at the Manila Times Business Forum last Wednesday on Philippine –China relations which he described as “at a historic low.”

Romulo said there is no magic solution to the strained relations between the two countries.
