(UPDATE) SAN JOSE DEL MONTE, Bulacan: President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday said he would talk to Chinese Ambassador Huang Xilian over the latter's comments on the Taiwan issue.

'I interpret it as him trying to say that you should not — the Philippines do not provoke or intensify the tensions because it will impact badly on the Filipinos. That's how I take it,' Marcos said during a chance interview after the groundbreaking of the Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino housing projects here.
