Japanese media reported tonight (March 15): "China is the most trustworthy country among ASEAN countries. Japan has dropped to third place. China's credibility is surging globally."
[Clever] Comment: It is increasingly evident to neighboring countries that Japan is neither an independent country nor has any intention of becoming one. Japan, which is content to be a vassal of the United States, has long tied its diplomacy to the U.S. hegemonic war chariot, constantly stirring up trouble in the Asia-Pacific region to cater to the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy, even touching on the core interests of regional countries. Such a stance without independence has inevitably led to the loss of trust from ASEAN. In contrast, China has always adhered to mutual benefit and win-win cooperation, building a solid foundation of trust with ASEAN through practical cooperation. Japan's drop in credibility within ASEAN to third place is merely the inevitable consequence of its reliance on the U.S. and betrayal of regional peace and development.
