With regards to the government in exile for the Freely Associated State of the Philippines based in London, U.K. and a Royal Charter for the recovery and administration of our ancestral land the Philippines, among others, including the formation of the American Monarchist Society, all under the PERSONAL protection and dominion of HM Queen Elizabeth II, I have decided that the participation and involvement of the following couples would be indispensable: (In alphabetical order).

On Oct. 11, 2015, I made a promise to Phyllis Gardner, Professor at Stanford School of Medicine that I shall make a donation to help select Stanford graduates of the School of Medicine, among others.
Also, I have to set aside a certain amount for our group of remote viewers who are from all over the world and support staff including funding for Jenna Davis’s future projects in the Philippines. A special fund set aside for Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, Duchess of Västergötland I would like to set aside a special fund for the orphans and children of the Philippines under the direction and control HRH Princess Madeleine Therese Amelie of Sweden.
In gratitude for the USA coming to the aid and support of the U.K. during WWII, we shall make the ENTIRE PHILIPPINES AN AMERICAN BATTLE MONUMENT!
In a March 15, 2015, Roy Domenico introduced a potential WAIS Villa in Tuscany (See Photo below). On March 17, I countered with a proposal to have a WAIS Headquarters in the West Coast “as soon as a substantial portion of my claim has been released.”

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Regarding a WAIS Villa in Tuscany, I would prefer to have a WAIS West Coast HQ in Southern California, where the weather is nice and warm like San Diego or Newport Beach. Santa Barbara or up north in the San Francisco Bay Area would also be nice. This will be my priority as soon as I have a freely associated state, Native American status and/or a government-in-exile for the Philippines. Of course this would come after a substantial amount of my claim has been released.

WIKILeaks – US says Island Mindanao has $1-Trillion Dollar untapped mineral resources
AT WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 24, 2011
https://betterphils.blogspot.com/2011/08/wikileaks-us-says-island-mindanao-has-1.html
[Mindanao is known as “The of Promise”. The promise of all the promises. Treasures, Land of God, the Lost Paradise, The lost garden of Eden and the land of the last judgment in earth. Bible scholars even pointed the Mindanao as the land of promise of all promises. One verse of the Bible quoted “The God’s kingdom will rise again in the east of the east seas where the Sun will rises first, in the white sand shores where the only land which people are willing to live and die for praising my name ”.]
Leaked diplomatic documents in Wikileaks showed the United States has a special interest in the natural resources in Mindanao and the ending of the armed conflict in the region, giving credence to a suspicion that the United States is prodding the Aquino administration’s peace efforts with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), including brokering the recent secret meeting between MILF spokesman Al Haj Murad and President Aquino.
Wikileaks obtained documents dated February 2006 or prior to the botched signing of the Memorandum of Agreement on Ancestral Domain (MoA-AD) on Aug. 5, 2008 showing extensive reference to the untapped rich mineral resources of Mindanao and tensions in the region which hinder the exploitation of these resources.
The leaked cable from the US embassy in Manila made particular reference to the so-called Liguasan Marsh in the Cotabato Basin spanning 288,000 hectares and is among areas controlled by the MILF.
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has already identified natural gas and oil deposits in three areas of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago: the Cotabato Basin, the Davao-Agusan Basin; and an area straddling Tawi-Tawi and Sulu. The Cotabato Basin, notably, includes the 288,000 hectare Liguasan Marsh, straddling the provinces of Maguindanao, North Cotabato, and Sultan Kudurat, according to the cable.
There are ^other funds & treasures in Europe and elsewhere that rightfully belong to my people and the Philippines.

One note-book presumably belonging to a member of the Akasuki Force, says:—”February 7, 1945. One hundred and fifty guerillas were disposed of tonight. I personally stabbed and killed 10. February 8: Guarded over 1,184 guerillas which were newly brought in to-day. February 9. Burned 1,000 guerillas to death to night. February 10: Guarded approximately 1,660 guerillas. February 13.

One of Japanese who escaped when the liberators attacked, Lt. Sadaaki Konishi, Imperial Japanese Army, came back a few days later, with reinforcements. Finding all the POWs gone he vented his rage on the people in nearby towns and massacred some 1,500 men, women, and children which they suspected of collaborating with the liberators. Konishi was later tried for war crimes and convicted in the Philippines (1946-1947) and hanged in Japan.

21.) World Bank Loans to the Philippines from Oct. 2011 to July 2013 totaling $4 billion for disaster preparation and recovery. When Typhoon Haiyan devastated Central Philippines on Nov. 8, 2013, there were no preparations. During the rescue and recovery efforts, it became obvious that there were no funds for the relief of the typhoon victims. Thousands of dead bodies littered the disaster area for weeks, even months after the typhoon.
Excerpt: “Worse, the World Bank gave a $3.7 billion loan to the Philippines in October 2011 and another $300 million last July 13, 2013. There might be other loans, grants, and aid I am not aware of. I’ve excluded the $150 million donations from the international community for the typhoon (Haiyan) relief efforts.
The Philippines is a former US territory and this country has a special responsibility to those islands and its people. We should stop funding oppression and the undemocratic oligarchy in the Philippines, withdraw our Ambassador and encourage others to do the same.

If Aquino III is after the money Gloria M. Arroyo has looted from the Philippine treasury, WAIS Chairman Cameron Sawyer who based in Russia, has given an idea where it went as early as June 02, 2011. Note that Iggy Arroyo, Gloria’s brother-in-law went to London in Aug. 2011 two months after Cameron Sawyer’s post. Cameron and I met in a conference in England last July 2011.

There they rub elbows with their counterparts from India, China, the whole Arab world, Southeast Asia (Iggy Arroyo?), and much of the rest of the world. The beneficiary is the UK economy–when they decide to take their companies public, they naturally do it in London, where they feel at home.”

For the Villa Wais, I’ve found the property in Tuscany:
JE comments: That’s the one. Imagine the possibilities. €20 million sounds like a lot, but in dollars it’s already $8 million cheaper than a year ago. With 100 bedrooms and an equal number of baths, it would be perfect for WAIS retreats. And do I see olive trees in the yard?

A US Governor and Reserve Sergeant in Israel Defense Forces – Mike O’Callaghan (QEPD)
With regards to my dual citizenship & a member of the Conservatives (U.K.), I forgot to mention one very good example was the 23rd Governor of Nevada, the late Donal Neil “Mike” O’Callaghan (09/10/1929 – 03/05/2004)

WAISer Timothy Brown is a former Marine and later a Diplomat. After the Iran-Contra problem, Tim Brown took over Col. Oliver North’s position as SLO (Senior Liaison Officer) for the Contras. He worked in Central America long enough that he became very good friends with the communists some of whom are Sandinistas. I strongly recommend his book Diplomarine.
In one WAIS discussion on Obama’s birth certificate, it was Tim Brown’s clarification as to the difference between a US national and a US citizen that led me to research and discover that Filipinos are in fact US nationals “until July 4, 1946” as Pres. Truman reiterated in his Feb. 20, 1946 “38 – Statement by the President Concerning Provisions in Bill Affecting Philippine Army Veterans” 38 Statement was in reply to the Rescission Act of 1946 that the US Senate of the 79th Congress passed that retroactively declared the military service of more than 260,000 Filipino WWII veterans “NOT ACTIVE SERVICE” and denied Filipino WWII veterans the military benefits they were promised when they signed up to serve for the only country they knew.
In this post, former Consul General Tim Brown says that Americans could legally be a citizen of 2 or 3 or even 5 different countries, as long as you do not vote in any of these country, except the US. Voting in a foreign country is considered “expatriative act” and grounds for losing US citizenship.
Excerpt:
“To make the story a bit shorter, she was legally a citizen of five countries, including the US. She was Israeli because she had automatically become an Israeli citizen when her parents immigrated to Israel. She was also a German because of her father, French because of her mother, British because of her wartime husband, but perhaps still a US citizen.
Can a US citizen also be a citizen of another country–or two, or three, or more? YES. ‘Nuf said.”

The 51st Death Anniversary of Sir Winston Spencer Churchill
24 Jan. 2016
Today is the 51st death anniversary of Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill KG, OM, CH, TD, DL, FRS, RA (30 November 1874 – 24 January 1965)
Sir Winston Churchill, the GREATEST STATESMAN of all time.
When the Tydings–McDuffie Act, [officially the Philippine Independence Act (Pub.L. 73–127, 48 Stat. 456)] was enacted on March 24, 1934 Sir Winston Churchill warned against the abandonment of the Philippines saying: “The national duty, dignity and honour of the United States are at stake.”
Later during the conference on Aug. 13-14, 1941 that produced the Atlantic Charter, FDR made it clear that he was after the dismantling of the British Empire. FDR did not consider the consequences of giving independence to the former colonies and one U.S. territory, the Philippines, most of which were not ready for self-rule.
Seventy-three years after the Philippines was granted independence, the people never wanted or were consulted about, the Philippines then the only Christian country in Asia is now hell on earth. Where people had to look overseas for decent-paying jobs.
Excerpt from The Other War: FDR’s Battle Against Churchill and the British Empire by L. Wolfe – Printed in The American Almanac, August 28, 1995. Pages 10 & 11
Atlantic Charter – August 13-14, 1941.
http://members.tripod.com/american_almanac/FDRlw95.htm
Churchill: “|`You mentioned India,’ he [Churchill] growled.
Roosevelt: “|`Yes, I [Roosevelt] can’t believe that we can fight a war against fascist slavery, and at the same time not work to free people all over the world from a backward colonial policy.’
Churchill: “|`What about the Philippines?’
Roosevelt: “|`I am glad you mentioned them. They get their independence*, you know, in 1946. And they’ve gotten modern sanitation, modern education, their rate of illiteracy has gone steadily down…”
===============
From wikipedia:
The eight principal points of the Atlantic Charter were:
- no territorial gains were to be sought by the United States or the United Kingdom;
- territorial adjustments must be in accord with the wishes of the peoples concerned;
- all people had a right to self-determination;*
- trade barriers were to be lowered;
- there was to be global economic cooperation and advancement of social welfare;
- the participants would work for a world free of want and fear;
- the participants would work for freedom of the seas;
- there was to be disarmament of aggressor nations, and a common disarmament after the war.
Although Clause Three clearly states that all peoples have the right to decide their form of government*, it fails to say what changes are necessary in both social and economic terms, so as to achieve freedom and peace.[9] “
Atlantic Charter Aug. 9 – 14, 1941

In 1934 Churchill spoke out against the abandonment of my ancestral land the Philippines, then a U.S. territory (not a colony) and warned that “the national duty, dignity and honour of the United States were at stake.”
He didn’t know then that 25 trillion cubic meters (900 trillion cubic feet) of natural gas would be discovered in the Spratlys. This is why China is grabbing the Spratlys.

Truman’s Proclamation 2667 declared the Spratlys integral part of the Philippine Territory on 28 Sept. 1945
Or that the US will discover there’s $1 trillion worth of unexplored minerals in Mindanao Island alone. And this is why Malaysia is trying to grab Mindanao.

Sir Winston Churchill had no idea the Philippines possesses huge geothermal resources all of which my late wife Maria G. Macario helped discover, explore and in most cases develop and manage.

Or that Benham Rising would be discovered in the 21st century.
Benham Rise, also known as Benham Plateau, is a 13-million hectare undersea region east of Luzon. It is enclosed by the coordinates 119°30’E to 132°00’E and 12°10’N to 20°30’N latitude. Bigger than Luzon, the 13-M hectare Benham Rise has been approved by the UN as part of Philippine territory. Benham Rise: The Philippines’ new territory off Aurora province.

Sir Winston Churchill’s objection was based on pure conviction of what good leadership and administration is all about.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Regarding a WAIS Villa in Tuscany, I would prefer to have a WAIS West Coast HQ in Southern California, where the weather is nice and warm like San Diego or Newport Beach. Santa Barbara or up north in the San Francisco Bay Area would also be nice. This will be my priority as soon as I have a freely associated state, Native American status and/or a government-in-exile for the Philippines. Of course this would come after a substantial amount of my claim has been released.

AT WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 24, 2011
https://betterphils.blogspot.com/2011/08/wikileaks-us-says-island-mindanao-has-1.html
[Mindanao is known as “The of Promise”. The promise of all the promises. Treasures, Land of God, the Lost Paradise, The lost garden of Eden and the land of the last judgment in earth. Bible scholars even pointed the Mindanao as the land of promise of all promises. One verse of the Bible quoted “The God’s kingdom will rise again in the east of the east seas where the Sun will rises first, in the white sand shores where the only land which people are willing to live and die for praising my name ”.]
Leaked diplomatic documents in Wikileaks showed the United States has a special interest in the natural resources in Mindanao and the ending of the armed conflict in the region, giving credence to a suspicion that the United States is prodding the Aquino administration’s peace efforts with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), including brokering the recent secret meeting between MILF spokesman Al Haj Murad and President Aquino.
Wikileaks
obtained documents dated February 2006 or prior to the botched signing of the Memorandum of Agreement on Ancestral Domain (MoA-AD) on Aug. 5, 2008 showing extensive reference to the untapped rich mineral resources of Mindanao and tensions in the region which hinder the exploitation of these resources.
The leaked cable from the US embassy in Manila made particular reference to the so-called Liguasan Marsh in the Cotabato Basin spanning 288,000 hectares and is among areas controlled by the MILF.
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has already identified natural gas and oil deposits in three areas of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago: the Cotabato Basin, the Davao-Agusan Basin; and an area straddling Tawi-Tawi and Sulu. The Cotabato Basin, notably, includes the 288,000 hectare Liguasan Marsh, straddling the provinces of Maguindanao, North Cotabato, and Sultan Kudurat, according to the cable.

21.) World Bank Loans to the Philippines from Oct. 2011 to July 2013 totaling $4 billion for disaster preparation and recovery. When Typhoon Haiyan devastated Central Philippines on Nov. 8, 2013, there were no preparations. During the rescue and recovery efforts, it became obvious that there were no funds for the relief of the typhoon victims. Thousands of dead bodies littered the disaster area for weeks, even months after the typhoon.
Excerpt: “Worse, the World Bank gave a $3.7 billion loan to the Philippines in October 2011 and another $300 million last July 13, 2013. There might be other loans, grants, and aid I am not aware of. I’ve excluded the $150 million donations from the international community for the typhoon (Haiyan) relief efforts.
The Philippines is a former US territory and this country has a special responsibility to those islands and its people. We should stop funding
oppression and the undemocratic oligarchy in the Philippines, withdraw our Ambassador and encourage others to do the same.

Later, on July 7, 2005, The Guardian reported that Christie’s of London sold one Canaletto painting for $11.5 million. Art Daily News said another Canaletto painting as being sold at $20 million. All together the Canaletto paintings and 122 other oil paintings were sold by Christie’s of London at an estimated price from $1 billion to $1.6 billion.

26 a.) Continued from no. 17 Examples of ^Other funds and
treasures in Europe and elsewhere that rightfully belong to my people: A Marcos crony and former golfing partner Hernando Disini left the Philippines with the kickbacks from the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant deal and sought refuge in Austria.
26. b) Still other monies and funds found their way to Russia that Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo tried but failed to retrieve. Her brother-in-law Iggy Arroyo deposited funds in a UK bank around 2009. In 2004 Philippine Daily Tribune reported that Iggy Arroyo’s net worth was placed at $5,196,428.57 while First Gentleman Mike Arroyo at $1.5 million.
In late Aug. 2011 Iggy Arroyo went back to London. He died of cancer in Jan. 2012.
“In a telephone interview Friday with the Philippine Daily Inquirer in Bacolod City, Iggy Arroyo said he was confined in a hospital in London for a
checkup on his liver and surgery to repair his hipbone. He said he first had
hip surgery 12 years ago.”

doctors’ call—Ignacio Arroyo (I. Arroyo reportedly died)

I don’t think Aquino III is after any Corona’s, the Arroyos’ or Marcoses assets in the Philippines or abroad. Below is the real story behind Iggy
Arroyo’s trip to London for “liver check-up”
If Aquino III is after the money Gloria M. Arroyo has looted from the Philippine treasury, WAIS Chairman Cameron Sawyer who based in Russia, has given an idea where it went as early as June 02, 2011. Note that Iggy Arroyo, Gloria’s brother-in-law went to London in Aug. 2011 two months after Cameron Sawyer’s post. Cameron and I met in a conference in England last July 2011.
“Every Russian oligarch has at least a house in London, and many of them live there permanently. There they rub elbows with their counterparts from India, China, the whole Arab world, Southeast Asia (Iggy Arroyo?), and much of the rest of the world. The beneficiary is the UK economy–when they decide to take their companies public, they naturally do it in London, where they feel at home.”

For the Villa Wais, I’ve found the property in Tuscany:
JE comments: That’s the one. Imagine the possibilities. €20 million sounds like a lot, but in dollars it’s already $8 million cheaper than a year ago. With 100 bedrooms and an equal number of baths, it would be perfect for WAIS retreats. And do I see olive trees in the yard?
