To: Shinzo Abe - Prime Minister (People's Republic of Japan)

Greetings.

On behalf of the Filipino people, I wish to congratulate you and the People's Republic of Japan for embarking on a next chapter of Japan's history.

I'd like to know if you would be interested in discussing bilateral ties and the renewal of treaties/agreement between the Philippine government and your predecessor. Perhaps we can discuss all these through videocall, of course in your most convenient and available time.

Hoping for your positive response. Peace and prosperity to Japan.

Sincerely yours,

Rodrigo R. Duterte
President
Federal Republic of the Philippines

"The Imperial family is doing really good. Emperor Akihito and the Imperial family have been busy. They are preparing for the end of the Heisei period. As you may or may not know that the Emperor Akihito will abdicate on the 30th April of 2013. After the abdication, he will precipitate numerous festivities leading up to the accession of his successor Crown Prince Naruhito. The enthronement ceremony will likely happen on 22 October of that year."

"That's good to hear. Your Emperor and Empress has done a great job for more than half a century. I think they have been very hardworking for the entirety of their lives despite being in a royalty status hence they deserve to enjoy their still lengthy lives more comfortable and free from stress. As for the Crown Prince, we wish him all the best for his succession. And we also commend your disaster preparedness, it is truly remarkable to see Japanese discipline play an important role especially in dangerous events like super typhoons (which Philippines is very familiar off).

My family are doing well. The First Lady, Honeylet, is busy with her non-profit organizations and charity works. My eldest daughter, Sara Duterte, is still the Mayor of Davao City. My son, Sebastian, is doing fine with his own business, and my youngest daughter, Veronica, is doing well in college.

I'd like to discuss several things with you regarding bilateral relationships. But before I go into the details, can you briefly educate me of your current People's Republic government and what the global community can expect from your new government?"

"We changed it into People's Republic because we are going to fight the capitalism in Japan. Our people have criticized the government for being a powerless government. So we decided to make a change. We are going to put our People first. Look, it's hard to say but Japan is slowly dying. This is something that is hard to say for me as a Prime minister. We got so many problems and everyone knows that but the biggest problem of all is no one is doing something about it. I will make a change to that. We will make Japan healthier again, a nation where people come first. A nation that cares about his people no matter what their nationality, race and religion."

"As for the question what the global community can expect from Japan. We know that we aren't doing much for the global community. We also have plans to improve our relation with global community. There is alot to say which I am not going to talk about it now. We are going to release our concrete plans to fix the problem is facing now and in the future and our global community goals. This will be released publicly on all the papers, social media and the news channels."

“I see. We wish you all this best. I just hope that the Japanese economy will still thrive amidst the radical changes that will happen under your government. I am also confident that the welfare of the Japanese people will always be prioritize by your government.

I have a few more questions if you don’t mind me asking, Mr. Prime Minister Abe:

- May I know Japan’s current relationship with China, South Korea, Russia, Taiwan, India, and a Vietnam?

- Is Japan a member of the Global Assembly?

- I understand that you will have stricter and tighter economic policies under your rule. Will this also affect trade and commerce with other countries as well?”

Sure, no problem

We will have soon a meeting with The Celestial Empire. We haven't contacted South Korea, Russia, Taiwan, India, and Vietnam yet but we will contact them soon.

Yes, Japan is a member of the Global Assembly

The economic policies should have from almost nothing to nothing affect to the trade and commerce with other countries. If a change will have an effect the trade and commerce with other countries. Then This would be shared trough social media, news channels and the papers before the change happens.

If you have any other question feel free to ask. I will happily answer all the questions"

"It's good to hear that Japan is a member if the Global Assembly and that trade/commerce will remain unaffected.

By the way, I believe Japan is well aware of the current conflicts of China, Vietnam, Taiwan, Malaysia, and the Philippines over the Spratly Island group in the South China Sea. Of all the rival claimants; China, hands down, is the biggest threat not only to the Philippine but to other rival claimants as well. So one last question before we formally start our formal bilateral relationship if you don't mind sir? I'd like to hear Japan's position/opinion regard the Spratly Islands?"

"I may have a solution that can revoke China's claim for the Spratly Islands. I can't promise that it will work but I will try it. There is a Senkaku Islands dispute between China and Japan. China was willingly to accept Japan's claim on the Senkaku Islands to end the dispute. So my plan is that Senkaku Islands will become Chinese Territory again if he revokes the Spratly Islands Claim."

"Thank you for your offered solution. But I prefer for Japan to at least stay neutral on the Spratly issue when dealing with other claimant countries. Philippines will support your Senkaku claims, no doubt about it. Although it would be a good favor for us in the future if Japan would support Philippines if ever we bring our Spratly claims in the Global Assembly.

That being said, we can formally begin discussing our bilateral relations.

First off, I think an Free Trade Agreement will not be feasible between our two (2) country since, as you mentioned earlier, you government is not leaning towards capitalism. However, I think a Non-Aggression Pact will be a good start.

Second is: I am wondering if your government allows the sale of your military products? Because we definitely can buy Japanese military products for our Armed Forces of the Philippines.

Third would be about would be about technology transfers."
