I really doubt that we could do anything when we are facing a superpower in the making like China. Even the United Nations stand neutral by it.
The UN is supposed to be neutral on account of the case being in the International Court of Justice na!
the last thing i'd want is for the UN to be not neutral but taking sides.
I AM A FILIPINO
AND IF SA ATIN TALAGA TONG SPRATLYS I'D WANT IT TO BE OURS
thing is
to be objective China has as much claim to the place as we do.
It never ceases to surprise me why China's claims are not getting the same media mileage as ours.
and this is data readily available to anyone who would check.
wikipedia or google
Those Islands
has been a chinese Teritory since 1873 when they were a part of the Then French indo China .
They also Defended it as a teritory twice.
1st against the french in first indo war
and
second against Japan where it was used as a submarine base in 1939 wherein the Japanese Admiral Surrendered to china and was held for war crimes in 1945.
It has never been historically a part of the philippines.
Which is why none of us have heard anything about it from marcos, ( undoubtedly our most intelligent President despite his crimes, being intelligent we all have to concede to this fact na MATALINO SI MARCOS)
aquino
Ramos and
ERAP.
The Philippines started laying claim to it after the United Nations Law of the sea was passed
wherein it was ammended from a
3 mile limit to 200 miles from land.
aLL of a sudden were now claiming spratley Islands to be ours.
KASI ANG KORTE NG PILIPINAS AY YUNG PALAWAN NAKA EXTEND
SO SUDDENLY 200 MILES MULA SA DULO NG PALWAN SA ATIN ANG SPRATLEY BIGLA!
This law of the seas naman would only apply
If and only If
No other country is claiming Historical ownership
If it does
HISTORICAL OWNERSHIP SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE
( You may google UN Charter of the Seas to Verify My Claim)
it would appear. tayo pa ang hindi pinapatulan ng China when they are tolerating our removal of thier structures there. ( Structures that have been there since 1973)
but with a Moron like noy noy challenging them to an arms race. things would change and conflict would definitely happen
China has the second largest submarine fleet,
60 nuclear capable Submarines.
The philippines has 1.
and it belongs to Alleged smugler and Governor. Chavit Singson. maybe noy noy can borrow it. para at least wed have a submarine there. Diesel engine nga lang
para sa akin
I think its useless to go head to head with these people
lalo with these facts
Nakakahiya pa tayo kasi na tsambahan natin by default ang isang teritory na has been deffended in two wars and has been mapped by China since the time of the spaniards
ngayon bigla natin cliniclaim.
dibale kung kaya natin
HINDI
Hindi naman din si PeNoy ang susugod dun!
For me
TIGILAN NA NG PINAS!
AND YES
PILIPINO AKO AND PROUD TO BE
BUT I AM NOT BACKING PeNOY IN THIS STUPID ARMS RAISE AGAINST CHINA TO TAKE
WHAT I LOGICALLY AND RIGHTFULLY BELIEVE IS CHINESE TERRITORY
