I placed the POV tag when creating the article because it is pasted from a US government website. Because this comes from a US govt source it may not be neutral, but I don't have the expertise to judge. (Hopefully others that know more will simply remove the tag if they think the article looks okay.) Mangostar (talk) 01:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

This article clearly is not neutral, and needs editing. It glosses over certain negative issues such as the Philippine Senate rejecting an extension of the Military Bases Agreement. There was growing resentment(and questionable constitutionality) of that agreement at that time. I think this article just paints a rosey picture without providing much in the way of facts.
