#1 OK, as someone that knows a little about the PI lets end the VFA. But first lets tie the VFA to USAID the pours over $100 million annually into the corrupt political elites. Lets end our economic aid programs that are outside of USAID, another $100 million a year. Lets hold the PI accountable for their failing NAIA airport. There runway is not certifiable by the FAA and has operated on waivers, pressed by the political class for decades. This will shut down all FAA carriers into Manila and will stop all PI carriers from flights into the US. They cant have their cake and eat it too. Go ahead!
