China urges the Philippines to honor the one-China principle with concrete actions in dealing with issues related to China's Taiwan region and refrain from taking any steps that may harm bilateral ties, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Wednesday.
Guo Jiakun, the spokesman, made the statement at a press conference in Beijing in response to reports that the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities in Taiwan are planning to set up a so-called "representative's office" in Cebu Province in the central Philippines.
"Let me stress again, no matter how the DPP authorities collude with external forces to seek 'diplomatic breakthroughs' and advance their separatist agenda in whatever form, such attempts will be all in vain and doomed to fail. We also urge the Philippine side to abide by the one-China principle with concrete actions, and refrain from taking any steps that could harm China-Philippines relations," Guo said.

China Media Group (CMG) has completed the recording of its annual Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Huainan, a city in east China's Anhui province, showcasing traditional Chinese cultural charm powered entirely by clean energy.
Set along the banks of the Huaihe River and deeply rooted in the region's rich cultural heritage, the gala is designed to deliver an audiovisual feast featuring classical Chinese romanticism. It is scheduled to air nationwide on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on Friday, Sept 26.
The main stage, located in the lake area of Huainan People's Park, blended rippling water and moonlight to create a serene and beautiful atmosphere.
Organizers adopted a customized "one program, one lighting design" approach, seamlessly integrating lighting with artistic performance to accentuate the gala's vibe.
The entire production was powered completely by clean, green energy.
"We keep a close eye on how much electricity the equipment was using second by second, and patrolled more than 30 spots around the set to ensure that the power supply stays steady and reliable," said Shi Lei, deputy director of the digital smart distribution network department at State Grid Huainan Power Supply Company.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar. Around China, people celebrate the day by gathering for moon-gazing, eating mooncakes, and lighting colorful lanterns.
