Did they ever trust China?
My relatives emigrated to the US in the late 70's. They were more welcoming of Japanese people than Chinese. I could never quite put my finger on why that was.
The survey, conducted between May 24 and 27 and first reported in the Business World newspaper, found that 55 percent of Filipinos had "little trust" in China while 19 percent had "much trust," resulting in a "bad" net rating of minus 36.
Along with China, the survey also showed that North Korea had a "bad" trust rating with Filipinos (minus 34).
On the other hand, the United States enjoyed a "very good" trust rating of plus 62, while Australia (plus 39) and Japan (plus 32) enjoyed "good" ratings.

It's because they are communist and supported the New People's Army for a time, even tried shipping them firearms
Don't forget, Fil-Chi people have this mentality that they are "superior" to other members of society and do have a tendency to exploit labour. Imagine the shock when their kids go to university to find out that Filipinos actually can afford to go to university.
True story.
