Giunsa pagkahibalo nga nagwithdraw na ang China ug usa nalang nahibilin nila nga barko?
Wala may RADAR Tracking capabilities ang Coast Guard ship nato nga naka station didto.
Nawala lang tingali sa ilang visual kay mipalayo lang gamay, unya declare nila nga mihawa na!
Naa kaha naka-install nga AIS (automatic ID system) ang atong Coast Guard ship?

kung wala na sila sa scarborough shoal din ni withdraw na plain and simple..na detect o wala sa radar sa coast guard as long as wala sila sa shoal wala natay labot ana,kung ni palayo sa shoal d maayo..

kung mu invade ang china manglarga na man sad ang mga pinoy to other countries. paet!

[PaYaSo]

Of course, palaban ug lain nasud napud.. as if mo laban sila.. taronga nag trabaho Noynoy oi!

Ihatag nanang scarborough shoal, give it up. Di mana ato-a pud in the first place.

why not lets give the entire luzon to them since its just few miles away from the scarborough shoal.

why can't we all live in peace and harmony?

if ever man gani mo declare og war ang China kontra nato..wa jd tay chance..kita ray luoy. luckily China also wants to settle the dispute in a diplomatic way..

by "China wanting to settle the dispute diplomatically" do you mean, avoiding putting the issue into international tribunal, and flexing its military muscle in the proximity of the dispute, then yes China definitely wants to settle it diplomatically. The only thing keeping China from going for our throats is the possibility that the U.S. will honor its ties with us and join in on the fray.

the president shouldnt be stupid in risking lives of 92M filipinos for clams and corals, na dili man pud tanan nga pinoy makinabang ana. ihatag na lang sa china unsa ilang gi-claim then lets be friendly with them, maka-benefit pa ta sa trade.

although this might be the easy way around this (at first glance at least), if we do this, then you might as well give the whole PH to them chinese. What we are doing is exercising our rights to sovereignty and keeping them chinese at bay. else they will just tell us, "Hey PH! We feel like Cebu is ours as well since their are many chinese firetrucks there". And the list goes on.

We should keep our stand so as not to be bullied by the nonsense of them chinese.

The US backing our back isn't a possibility - it's a given. And I don't think it's just them that will back us up in case this goes to the worst case scenario as everyone on this known planet knows how illogical the chinese are with their claims and that they should be put to the right place.

This isn't the 40's anymore. We now have the internet and everyone is connected and everyone on the planet knows what's going on so no nonsense regime can live as long as they could before the information age.

The chinese wouldn't go to an international court unless they already have someone there that will favor them on this case because they know themselves that their claims are baseless and idiotic while at that.

PS: Why are we still buying their goods again? hehe

"Whereas, all waters beyond the outermost islands of the archipelago but
within the limits of the boundaries set forth in the aforementioned treaties
comprise the territorial sea of the Philippines;"

how can u say na dli na ato na under the UN Convention Law of the Sea where anything that doesn't go beyond 200 nautical miles EEZ is still Philippine territory.
