These days, communism doesn't seem to the factor that it used to be. Red China's a communist country, and it's a trading partner with the world...Vietnam's communist, it's participating in the global market, Russia's formerly a communist country...it's a trading participant; Cold War's over. If countries are peaceful and want to become constructive (instead of destructive) then their beliefs and titles (names) might not be that important (anymore). Maybe, it's the threat of terrorism that's mended some of the feelings...maybe terrorism has turned into the new "common enemy" for all nations.

Communist aggression.
Philippines will still be under Japanese occupation.
Communist influence & military infiltration into South Vietnam began almost immediately after the Geneva Accords divided the country into North & South in 1954/55. The war grew from that point.
The Spanish Empire ruled the Philippines for 300 years, not 30 years. The United States and Britain then occupied the Philippines until World War II. The United States occupation began in 1898 when Spain handed the Philippines over to the United States. The British occupation in 1920, and that was more like an occupation of Manila and I don't exactly know when that ended. Britain occupying the Philippines is not something the average Filipino knows these days, but it did happen; the Philippines was part of the British Empire.
