DFA, PNP reject Beijing's claim of 'worsening public security' in PH
Manila Bulletin
|September 2, 2025
The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) raised an objection against China’s travel advisory to the Philippines, assuring instead that law enforcement officers are addressing reported crimes, including those perpetrated by Chinese nationals.
In a statement on Monday, Sept. 1, the DFA maintained that China “mischaracterizes the situation in the Philippines.”
“Instances of crimes reported or known to law enforcement authorities, including those perpetrated by Chinese nationals against their compatriots, are being vigorously addressed by relevant law enforcement authorities,” it said.
“The Philippine Government has been engaging with relevant stakeholders on these cases,” the statement added.
