I guess he learned of some unsettling things from the Chinese government

I was thinking something similar. I think that the Chinese told him that he is just a pawn and will take whatever sea territory they could if he wanted to team up with them. Or wanted exclusive oil rights in Phillipine waters.

My original comment at the time he went off the deep end about this was that if the US leaves they'd loose immigration rights to the US and massive amounts of financial support by not having the bases. Which could mean that China wasn't gonna give as much money as the US does.
