South China/West Philippine Sea

[tk421]

I have a lot of scientists and geologists in my fb feed. And they pretty much say the same thing: Malacanang’s excuse that we need China to explore Benham rise is complete BS.

 

Our scientists are more than qualified to do research there on their own. The problem is equipment procurement: not even the cost or rental of equipment themselves, but the bureaucracy to have these equipment delivered to the Philippines. Long story short: mas interesado perahan ng gobyerno ang pag procure ng equipment kaysa pakinabangan natin ang research na gagawin ng mga scientists natin.

Nakakapagtaka kung may alam nga ba sa geography ang admin ngayon, di lang mayon volcano ang na relocate sa naga. Pati spratly’s at benham rise na relocate sa china.

[rooster69ph]

kung hindi ba naman sila tanga eh may mga local companies na may kakayahan na mag conduct ng exploration sa benham rise. Pxp energy at philodrill. Saya ng palusot nila para lang pagbigyan ang bff ni dutae na china. Sana lang hindi totoo ang iniisip ko na binigay na ni dutae ang benham sa china kapalit ng pagiging buddy buddy niya dito. So much for independent foreign policy. Lol

believe me hindi tanga ang mga yan .... nanggagagago oo...lantaran pa nga!

 

ang mga tanga ay yun mga uto-utong basta na lang naniniwala sa mga pinagsasabi nito .... madami yan initial estimate there are probably 16m of them maaring nabawasan ng konti pero nadagdagan din ng mga bagong sanib na kumampi dati sa mga talunang na hindi maka-dilawan.

Nag ku kunwaring mga patriots ang mga tao pero itong sovereign lands natin pag inaagaw ang retort nila: eh ikaw nga pag sinali ka sa giyera laban China aayaw ka.

 

Good Lord kung ganyan ang pag iisip nyo na kelangan yun kasagutan mo ang i cha challenge mo ng ganyan imbes na tinatanong mo sa sarili yan bakit mas importante sa iyo na barahin yun kasagutan mo imbes na ipag laban ang teritoryo mo, eh mas duwag ka.

 

At least yun umaangal sa gawain ng Tsina sa teritoryo ng Pilipinas kahit salita nakikipaglaban eh kayo hindi niyo lang hinahayaan, dinidepensahan niyo pa ang magnanakaw. Kesyo mamamatay lang mga sundalo natin o hindi natin kakayanin makipag giyera, etc.

 

Either duwag kayo o makasarili lang talaga pag iisip niyo.

Kasi he’s a certified true liar. He doesn’t love this country. He loves being in power.

 

Pusta tayo if ever in the most remote scenerio na sakupin ng China ang mainland, si Duterte will be the first one to turn his backs on us and will want to become China’s puppet president.

 

Treachery runs in his heart.

How America is losing the battle for the South China Sea

Some optimists have pointed to small developments—such as China this year permitting Filipino and Vietnamese fishing around Scarborough Shoal for the first time since 2012—as encouraging signs that the Hague’s ruling is having a positive effect on the South China Sea.

Most observers see it much differently. With the U.S. government focused on North Korea, China this summer has made substantial progress in further establishing de facto control over most of the South China Sea.

Aside from an uptick in U.S. Navy freedom-of-navigation operations in the South China Sea, the administration seems uninterested in reinforcing international law.

Salamat Duterte at halos makumpleto na ang structure ng China sa South China Sea.

The structures were there already before Duterte was elected as President.

 

The past president stood by while the structures were being built. He was not able to do anything.

 

Even the World Power USA was not able to do anything to stop the construction.

 

If all the leaders in the past were no able to stop it, what do you suggest we do now?

[tk421]

In the past we at least filed diplomatic protests. This one is just handling it over without a fight.

 

What does it do? It prevents China's actions from being legitimate even if we are not able to stop it from occurring.

That's precisely what we're doing now. Aren't we?

Not now in Duterte's time as far as I know.

Yes, as far as you know. But better look closely at what our DND and DFA have been doing.

 

Our policy of handling territorial conflict through diplomatic means has not changed. It's just that because our diplomatic relations with China is more cordial now compared to BS Aquino's term, there are now less diplomatic protests and more concessions given.

 

This is against USA's liking. They want us to be more belligerent to China.

 

To our government's credit, we are silently building up our defense capability in order to assert our sovereignty in the future.

 

Harry Roque, the spokesperson, has a cryptic statement:

 

"...If the Aquino administration was not able to do anything about these artificial islands, what do they want us to do? We cannot declare war -- not only is it illegal... but it's also because it's impossible for us to declare war at this point..."

Wow. Great logic.

Overwhelmed?

 

Wala sa hulog ang sagot mo....

 

 

What do you suggest the government do?

[tk421]

For one, Id like them to send Duterte on a Jet Ski and plant the Philippine flag on our West Philippine Sea islands.

Are you and DDSfanatic the same person?

True

False. At least Pnoy had the balls to fight for our sovereignty and take China to court winning that decision at the Hague. It didn't make China leave, but it was a start to the diplomatic protests.

 

Even the World Power USA was not able to do anything to stop the construction.

 

 

The US was at least challenging China's claims by sailing near these disputed shoals and asserting freedom of navigation. They were our friends. They were helping and supporting our cause and we left them hanging when Duterte suddenly gets verbal diarrhea and says "the US has lost... I will be forever indebted to China" or something like that.

 

If all the leaders in the past were no able to stop it, what do you suggest we do now?

 

For starters, Digong can shut his trap and stop saying s@%t like "we cannot beat China". What a f#&king pussy! If you were a little girl and this big dude was trying to rape you, do you just lay down there and let him do anything to you saying to yourself "I cannot beat you". You have to fight! Not necessarily by taking up arms but there are many other diplomatic protests we could've done. For starters he should've listened to the experts like Justice Carpio. Carpio had many suggestions. Staying silent was the worst thing we could've done and that's exactly what Digong did.
