Roleplay:Philippines (No. 1)/Diplomacy/Filipino-Nusantaran relations

Relations between the Philippines and Nusantara have been improved greatly since the Philippines' decision to join the Broad Regional Initiative, allowing the Philippines to trade with Nusantara easily and with other BRI memberstates.

Nusantara has two major military bases on Batanes Island and Palawan Island, to act as an early warning system for invading armies from the Pacific. Both these bases attracted controversy upon their completion, mainly from Japan.
