Security marshals & police with anti-riot gear drive away protesters from the venue of the Luzon Economic Corridor Investment Forum in Taguig City on Sept. 10. The Southern Police District said around 100 participated in the lightning rally, which they called an illegal assembly. The multi-sectoral rally which included land and environment advocates condemned the construction of industrial hubs under the Pax Silica Initiative, instead calling for genuine land reform for farmers and indigenous peoples. | via Anjo Bagaoisan (📹: Courtesy of Richardson Tubo / Tinig ng Plaridel)

I bet you didn't know this! The US and the Philippines announced a 4,000-acre Al-native industrial hub in the Luzon Economic Corridor on April 16, 2026, under the Pax Silica initiative. The Philippines becomes the 13th signatory focused on semiconductors, Al, and critical minerals to counter Chinese supply chain dominance. This is absolutely incredible for both the US and the Philippines!

‘HUWAG MATAKOT SA PAX SILICA. THIS IS A CHANCE IN A LIFETIME’ WATCH: Palawan 2nd District Rep. Jose Alvarez defended the proposed Pax Silica Industrial Hub, saying the public should not be alarmed over its reported water requirements. During the Department of Environment and Natural Resources 2027 budget hearing, Alvarez said the 60 million liters of water needed per day is small compared with the combined discharge of Zambales rivers into the ocean, calling the project a “chance in a lifetime.” | Chim Cantos

Under Secretary of State Jacob Helberg just revealed the US claimed 4,000 acres in the Philippines for AI. That's a third of Manhattan, handed over for one purpose: building a private sector industrial base to secure America's AI supply chain. This is what competing with China actually looks like. Pax Silica is the 14-country coalition behind it, and it's the most ambitious economic security plan America has ever built. Full breakdown on No Priors:

Sen Raffy Tulfo opens the hearings on PAX Silica “Who suffers most from this lack of direction? It is the Filipino people. The farmers fighting for their ancestral lands. The urban poor living in hazardous zones. The indigenous communities displaced from their heritage and countless families who lose their homes and lives to floods and landslides that could have been prevented with proper planning.”

Pax Silica Is Not Just About Data Centers I recently asked how many jobs Pax Silica will actually produce, and the comments shocked me. Many people did not talk about jobs. They talked about secret plans. They talked about foreign powers. Some said Pax Silica was only about data centers. Others said it was a plan to take minerals from the Philippines. Many turned the issue into a fight between the United States and China. These fears should not be ignored. But we also need facts. Pax Silica is not just about data centers. It may cover a full supply chain. This can include raw materials, chip making, assembly, testing, software, transport, and other services. Yes, data centers use a lot of power and water. The government must explain how these needs will be met. Local towns should not lose water or pay higher power costs just so large companies can grow. But data centers are only one part of the plan. Mining is also only one part. The Philippines has nickel and cobalt. These metals are used in batteries. Chips need other materials too, such as gold, copper, tungsten, silicon, and quartz. We are not a top source of all these materials. The bigger goal should be to keep more work and value in the country. Today, the Philippines is strong in chip assembly and testing. These jobs matter. But we should not stop there. We should move into chip making, research, design, software, factory support, and logistics. The BPO industry shows what is possible. It started with many call center jobs. Today, Filipino teams handle finance, research, design, data, and other important work for global firms. The chip industry can also move up. But good jobs will not appear by magic. We need better training, stable power, strong schools, good roads, modern ports, and clear rules. We need engineers, technicians, software workers, and machine experts. The government must also ask hard questions. * How many jobs will be created? * How many will be permanent? * How much will workers earn? * How many Filipino firms will win contracts? * How much tax will be paid? * What will happen to local water, land, and power? Supporters say Pax Silica may bring billions of dollars in investment. That could help the economy grow. But large investment does not always mean large public gain. The Philippines must bargain well. We should welcome investment, but we must demand local jobs, worker training, fair taxes, and strong safety rules. The debate should not be ruled by rumors. Pax Silica should not be judged by whether it is pro-US or pro-China. It should be judged by one clear test: Is it pro-Filipino?

GEOPOLITICAL SHIFT ALERT: America finally bends the knee. Enter "Pax Silica." The US just announced India will be invited as a full member to the Pax Silica alliance next month. If you're unfamiliar with this, you should pay attention. The 21st century isn't running on oil, it’s running on Silicon. And the Americans just realized they can't win this war without New Delhi. Here is the breakdown of the deal, why India is the kingmaker, and why the US H1B hypocrisy is laughable. What is "Pax Silica"? Think "Pax Americana" but for chips. It is a new US-led strategic blockade designed to secure the AI, Semiconductor, and Critical Mineral supply chains. The goal is to break China’s chokehold on rare earths and tech infrastructure. Members are the US, Japan, UK, South Korea, etc. The Blunder is that when they launched it in Dec 2025, they excluded India. Why the U-Turn? (Why India is Crucial) The US woke up to a brutal reality: You cannot replace China’s manufacturing scale with tiny island nations. -->First is Scale. You need a massive workforce and industrial base. Only India has it. -->Minerals- You need an alternative for rare earth processing. India is the only viable option. Talent- The entire global silicon architecture runs on Indian brains. They tried to build an "Anti-China Tech Wall" without the world's largest democracy. It crumbled before it started. The Irony: The H1B "Overreaction" 🤡 Let’s take a moment to laugh at the American "strategy." -->US Dept of State in Dec 2025: -->Cancel H1B stamping appointments. -->Strand thousands of Indian techies during the holidays. -->Treat the very people powering your tech sector like potential threats with "social media vetting." US Dept of State in Jan 2026: "Please join Pax Silica! We need your help! You are essential partners!" The Message to the US: You cannot harass our engineers at the border on Monday and beg for our geopolitical alliance on Tuesday. If you want "Pax Silica," you'd better fix the "Visa Trauma." You need us more than we need you. How India Dominates from Here 🇮🇳 This invitation is our leverage. We are no longer just a market; we are the factory and the lab. -->Tech Transfer: Demand deep-tech IP sharing, not just assembly jobs. -->The Value Chain: Move from "testing" chips to "fabricating" them. -->Leverage: Use our position in Pax Silica to negotiate better mobility for our workforce. The era of ignoring India is over. The US tried to play hardball and realized they were playing with a wiffle bat against a cricket team. India isn't just "invited" to the table. We are setting the table.

The Mayor continues to prioritize special interest groups over the blue-collar, hardworking families of this City. This isn’t a social studies project on civics, although our Mayor leads us to believe it is. This budget and the major impacts it has and will continue to have for years are real-life issues that affect not just the communities in my ward but the entire City. I commend my colleagues, those who aren’t beholden to the Mayor and his special interest groups, who took the time to put aside differences for the good of the City and voted NO on this budget. Our coalition of common-sense leaders wasn’t about "what’s in it for my community," but rather, "what’s in the best interest of the taxpayers of the City of Chicago?" The 2025 Budget vote will surely have lasting consequences. I want residents of the 15th Ward and the City of Chicago to know that I fought and will continue to fight for what is in your best interest, the taxpayer!

WATCH: During recess of the Senate Plenary Session earlier, Sen. Robin Padilla shared with fellow senators Win Gatchalian, Migz Zubiri, Risa Hontiveros, and Bong Go his bad experience in Clark when he went there to ask about Pax Silica. He said he was refused entry, while National Commission on Indigenous Peoples personnel were allowed in. Padilla said he was concerned about the incident, particularly because he chairs the Committee on Cultural Communities. On the floor, Zubiri moved to include Padilla in the committees that will investigate the initiative, allowing him to join Sen. Erwin Tulfo’s Committee on Environment. The issue is parked for now. | via Mark Salazar/GMA News Visit for more updates.

From the horses mouth, or in this case the Home Office. On their own X page…THE BETRAYAL OF BRITAINS!! Rather than clamping down on more immigration, working to allow less asylum seekers and refugees into the country, they are opening up new routes for “community groups” to sponsor and bring in the people that THEY want. Community groups could include religious groups, NGO’s, charities, universities or even Mosques. And we could have a situation where overseas funding of these community groups from countries like Qatar pay for it. This is NOT what the British people want, not what they hav constantly voted for. They are being betrayed by Labour, betrayed by the Fabians, betrayed by the entire establishment. We MUST say No, we will not accept it.

Capas-born actor Brent Manalo has doubled down on his opposition to the proposed Pax Silica initiative, emphasizing that his identity as a native of Tarlac compelled him to speak out and protect his home province. Reflecting on his decision to raise awareness, the actor revealed that he immediately took the time to research the project after first learning about it a couple of weeks ago. While acknowledging that the development comes with possible benefits, he ultimately found that the risks far exceed the advantages. "Ako syempre, Tarlaqueño talaga ako, so once narinig ko 'to, I think a couple of weeks ago ko siya unang nalaman, I really did my research. May mga pros siya, but then, I think the pros were outweighed by the cons," Manalo shared with radar Entertainment during the media launch of his stage play “The Art of Breaking Up,” which is slated in November. For the actor, raising his voice against the project is both a civic duty and a personal responsibility to safeguard Tarlac's natural beauty and agricultural heritage from potential harm. "As a Tarlaqueño, you have to use your voice. It’s such a beautiful province na pwedeng masira because of this project. So I think I have to do my part as a Filipino and as a Tarlakenyo," he added. Manalo’s recent remarks come after his earlier post on X, where he flagged possible displacement among agricultural workers tied to the planned 1.6k-hectare AI and tech hub in New Clark City. The project is part of a US-led initiative that aims to build a “secure” and “innovation-driven” silicon and nickel supply chain—an area where the Philippines plays a major role, accounting for 95 percent of global nickel ore exports, based on 2025 data from the Philippine Nickel Industry Association. He pointed out that Tarlac has long depended on agriculture, and raised concerns that farmers could lose not just their land, but their main source of income. For him, the bigger question is simple: are these kinds of developments worth the cost? His stance echoes concerns from various groups, including environmental advocates, civil society organizations, and farmers, who have been sounding the alarm over possible land displacement, environmental damage, and even issues tied to national sovereignty. One of them, the Institute for Nationalist Studies, has gone as far as calling for the project’s outright rejection. The group claimed that the Philippine government is offering land and natural resources to the United States rent-free. "Under the guise of integration into global supply chains, Pax Silica is another false promise of technological development for the Philippines, while the US and its allies keep Filipino workers toiling at the most labor-intensive part of production," it said. As the conversation continues online, the debate has grown into a larger one: how to balance progress and innovation with the welfare of local communities. For now, Manalo remains among the public figures using their platform to keep that conversation going, especially for those who might be directly affected.

"India will be invited to join US-led initiative Pax Silica as 'full member' next month"- US embassador Sergio Gor Trying to act smart, Trump? But Bharat under PM .Narendra Modi Ji can see through this 'noble gesture'! Why's US Pushing Bharat into Pax Silica: It's All About American Interests, Not Altruism. Let's cut through diplomatic fluff. US inviting Bharat to join Pax Silica—a coalition for securing supply chains in critical minerals, semiconductors, AI & advanced tech—isn't some benevolent gesture. America doesn't do global alliances without hefty dose of self-interest. Here's real playbook on why Uncle Sam wants us in & crucially, how Bharat must play smart to avoid getting trapped in one-sided deal. 👉US Motives- Securing Dominance, Countering China & Tapping Bharat's Assets 1. Countering China's Monopoly: China controls 90% of global rare earth processing & massive chunk of semiconductor supply chains. Pax Silica is Washington's answer to "de-risk" from Beijing—building a "trusted" network of allies to reroute critical tech flows. Bharat, with world's 3rd-largest rare earth reserves (6.9 million tonnes, mostly in coastal monazite sands), is prime target. US wants access to our raw materials to feed their refineries & fabs, reducing reliance on China without lifting a finger on their own soil. 2. Geopolitical Leverage in Indo-Pacific: Pax Silica pulls Bharat deeper into US orbit as a "strategic counterweight" to China. It's about encircling Beijing economically—Japan, South Korea, UK, Israel are already in; adding Bharat's scale (population, market, geography) makes it powerhouse bloc. Trump-era reciprocity means fair trade on paper, but in reality, it's about locking in allies for tech war. 3. Economic Goldmine-Talent, Market & Cheap Resources: Bharat's engineering prowess, booming digital economy & manufacturing push (via PLI schemes) are irresistible. US sees us as a diversification hub—away from Taiwan's risks—for chips & AI. But dig deeper: Raw rare earths sell for $3,000/tonne, while processed magnets (which we'd import back) go for $25000/tonne. Joining gives US firms access to our resources, talent & $3T+ market, boosting their profits while we play supplier. 4. Tech Sovereignty for US, Not World: This's about controlling "operating system of modern power"—silicon, AI, data centers. By inviting Bharat early, US ensures standards, export controls & investments align with American rules, preventing a multipolar tech world where Bharat could pivot to alternatives. 🔥In short, Pax Silica is economic statecraft: Prosperity for US bloc, dependency for others. It's not charity; it's strategy. 👉How Bharat Must Not Fall into the Trap? JOIN, BUT ON OUR TERMS. Bharat should absolutely join—access to tech, R&D & global chains is a win for our semiconductor ambitions (we're already at <1% global production despite reserves). But NOT Blindly. Here's what Modi Sarkar will demand even as members: —Demand Tech Transfer & Build Domestic Muscle: No deal without enforceable clauses for refining tech & joint fabs in India. —Invest heavily in our own processing plants (e.g., expand IREL's capabilities) to avoid exporting cheap ore & importing pricey chips. –Push for co-ownership in AI/logistics standards—don't let US/Japan hog high-value end. —Maintain Strategic Autonomy by Diversifying Alliances. Will Keep balancing with China (via BRICS/SCO), Russia & EU. Bharat won't burn bridges; but will use Pax Silica to negotiate better terms elsewhere. —Safeguard Data, IP & Sovereignty: Enforce strict data localization in AI deals. Protect our startups from IP theft or forced partnerships. Monitor investments via CFIUS-like screening to block backdoor control. —Focus on Long-Term Resilience: Ramp up R&D funding (aim for 2% GDP), skill 1M+ engineers in semis/AI, & integrate with Quad/iCET for broader gains. IF AMERICA AGREES TO THIS, PAX SILICA IS WELCOME. OR ELSE....THANK YOU, BUT NO THANK YOU!

But Bharat under PM .Narendra Modi Ji can see through this 'noble gesture'! Why's US Pushing Bharat into Pax Silica: It's All About American Interests, Not Altruism. Let's cut through diplomatic fluff. US inviting Bharat to join Pax Silica—a coalition for securing supply chains in critical minerals, semiconductors, AI & advanced tech—isn't some benevolent gesture. America doesn't do global alliances without hefty dose of self-interest. Here's real playbook on why Uncle Sam wants us in & crucially, how Bharat must play smart to avoid getting trapped in one-sided deal. 👉US Motives- Securing Dominance, Countering China & Tapping Bharat's Assets 1. Countering China's Monopoly: China controls 90% of global rare earth processing & massive chunk of semiconductor supply chains. Pax Silica is Washington's answer to "de-risk" from Beijing—building a "trusted" network of allies to reroute critical tech flows. Bharat, with world's 3rd-largest rare earth reserves (6.9 million tonnes, mostly in coastal monazite sands), is prime target. US wants access to our raw materials to feed their refineries & fabs, reducing reliance on China without lifting a finger on their own soil. 2. Geopolitical Leverage in Indo-Pacific: Pax Silica pulls Bharat deeper into US orbit as a "strategic counterweight" to China. It's about encircling Beijing economically—Japan, South Korea, UK, Israel are already in; adding Bharat's scale (population, market, geography) makes it powerhouse bloc. Trump-era reciprocity means fair trade on paper, but in reality, it's about locking in allies for tech war. 3. Economic Goldmine-Talent, Market & Cheap Resources: Bharat's engineering prowess, booming digital economy & manufacturing push (via PLI schemes) are irresistible. US sees us as a diversification hub—away from Taiwan's risks—for chips & AI. But dig deeper: Raw rare earths sell for $3,000/tonne, while processed magnets (which we'd import back) go for $25000/tonne. Joining gives US firms access to our resources, talent & $3T+ market, boosting their profits while we play supplier. 4. Tech Sovereignty for US, Not World: This's about controlling "operating system of modern power"—silicon, AI, data centers. By inviting Bharat early, US ensures standards, export controls & investments align with American rules, preventing a multipolar tech world where Bharat could pivot to alternatives. 🔥In short, Pax Silica is economic statecraft: Prosperity for US bloc, dependency for others. It's not charity; it's strategy. 👉How Bharat Must Not Fall into the Trap? JOIN, BUT ON OUR TERMS. Bharat should absolutely join—access to tech, R&D & global chains is a win for our semiconductor ambitions (we're already at <1% global production despite reserves). But NOT Blindly. Here's what Modi Sarkar will demand even as members: —Demand Tech Transfer & Build Domestic Muscle: No deal without enforceable clauses for refining tech & joint fabs in India. —Invest heavily in our own processing plants (e.g., expand IREL's capabilities) to avoid exporting cheap ore & importing pricey chips. –Push for co-ownership in AI/logistics standards—don't let US/Japan hog high-value end. —Maintain Strategic Autonomy by Diversifying Alliances. Will Keep balancing with China (via BRICS/SCO), Russia & EU. Bharat won't burn bridges; but will use Pax Silica to negotiate better terms elsewhere. —Safeguard Data, IP & Sovereignty: Enforce strict data localization in AI deals. Protect our startups from IP theft or forced partnerships. Monitor investments via CFIUS-like screening to block backdoor control. —Focus on Long-Term Resilience: Ramp up R&D funding (aim for 2% GDP), skill 1M+ engineers in semis/AI, & integrate with Quad/iCET for broader gains. IF AMERICA AGREES TO THIS, PAX SILICA IS WELCOME. OR ELSE....THANK YOU, BUT NO THANK YOU!

Launching on Wednesday, Sept 25. Stay tuned! Right now, #AI is having a moment — and it’s not the first time grand predictions about the potential of machines are being made. But, what does it really mean to say something like ChatGPT is “intelligent”? What exactly is #intelligence? The next season of the #Complexity #podcast, 'The Nature of Intelligence', explores this question through conversations with cognitive and neuroscientists, animal cognition researchers, and AI experts in six episodes. Together, we'll investigate the complexities of human intelligence, how it compares to that of other species, and where AI fits in. We'll dive into the relationship between language and thought, examine AI's limitations, and ask: Could machines ever truly be like us?

#WATCH | Delhi | US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says, "I have spoken often during my time here over the last few days about the strategic alliance between the United States and India and how important that is for our national interest in the United States. And today is a tangible example of it. We are two countries that have strategic interests in ensuring reliable long-term access to critical minerals and supply chains that are important for our innovation economy... The groundwork was laid for this on the 4th of February when you joined us at the Critical Minerals Forum that we hosted in Washington, D.C. It gained momentum later that month when India signed on to Pax Silica... and now today, because we both have a strategic and shared interest in the fact that vibrant innovation economies such as ours cannot afford to leave the foundational materials of these industries vulnerable to single source monopolies that could deny us these things, not just in a time of conflict, but as a leverage point contrary to our sovereign national interests. So it's a pleasure to be here today and I'm glad we were able to sign this because in addition to being an important document and important agreement, it brings a tangible example of the strategic partnership between the United States and India."

440 acres of farmland in Missouri is being taken over for a data center, residents are outraged and had no idea because the government keep the whole thing a secret with non disclosure agreements Residents will not be allowed to vote on it “In St. Charles, Missouri, where a massive data center project is being proposed on a 440 acre piece of farmland. Residents here are outraged about what this could mean for their water, their electricity rates. And the biggest thing is it's been kept a secret because of a non disclosure agreement.” Residents won’t be able to vote, only their councilmen. “The city council is who the vote's going to be on the 19th. The 10 people are going to make the decision on something this huge, something this absurd going in to our community, which potentially could ruin the water source for St. Charles. This isn't something for 10 people to decide. We need to get them to vote on just shutting this down.” “What are you hearing from them? Well, there's an NDA in place. Okay, so it's hush hush” The corruption in America is out of control
