For the defense policy, the Philippines has started an active military modernization program. As for the foreign policy, the Philippines is trying to coordinate the Association of Southeast Asian Nations(ASEAN)with one voice to internationalize the South China Sea dispute and force China to reach a Code of Conduct with ASEAN under international pressure. Furthermore, the Philippines also makes a great effort on gathering regional great power like the Unite States, Japan and Australia into the South China Sea region, for balancing the power of China. For the economic policy, the Philippines and China had a bilateral agreement on the Seismic Undertaking for Certain Areas in the South China Sea in 2004.
