SINGAPORE (AP) — Government leaders, defense officials and diplomats from around the world are gathering in Singapore for Asia’s premier security forum this weekend, at a time of increasing tension and competition for influence between the U.S. and China in the Indo-Pacific region.
In Singapore, Marcos Jnr and Philippine defence officials will be in close physical proximity to Chinese military officials, who ordered blockades and the use of water cannons against Philippine vessels in a months-long row in the contested waterway.
The United States and China have significantly increased the volume of military exercises across Asia amid roiling regional tensions in recent years, though Beijing’s drills still lag in scale and complexity, a new study has found.

China argues the annual moratorium is aimed at promoting sustainable fishing.
The Philippines has signed a maritime cooperation deal with Brunei to boost “stability of the region”, but analysts say Bandar Seri Begawan’s ties with China could limit its commitment to working with Manila on countering Beijing’s influence in the South China Sea.
SEOUL (Reuters) -- South Korea and the United Arab Emirates signed a trade agreement at a summit on Wednesday to sharply cut import duties and forge closer business and investment ties.
