  1. Tension in SCS are created by usa and Philippine deliberately enters illegally into china waters .
    Philippine should not park it's rotten ship in china waters is already WRONG , china have all the right to stop Philippine illegally entry into china waters with military equipment which threathen china security .

    Whether promise or not promise Philippine must tow it's ship out if china waters .
    Stop blaming accusing china .

    Leaving rotten ship , defusing to tow it away caused tension but china have been tolerating Philippine unreasonable behaviours for 25 years .

    The world can see usa n Philippine and Japan are creating tension in SCS not china .

  2. Making alliances now is just for show and for something to talk about..see Ukraine.. china now knows how to deter alliances.. just copy Russian does.. treat everybody of nuclear war😂

  3. How comes the PRC boundary is marked with nine dash lines far away from PRC coast and close to the waterfront of Vietnam; Malaysia and Philippine?
    It looks like your neighbour claiming the ground bricks in front of your home door are belonged to him and only allow you to exit through a narrow path

  4. For context, the ship was grounded there with a Philippine flag and is used as a Taiwanese outpost in order to give the Philippines a physical presence on the island which cannot otherwise be staffed. If they did not do this, China would immediately seize control of the area. So this is no small thing. If China can successfully push them away from that island, the will be free to dominate a sizeable area that is claimed otherwise by the Philippines with no way for them to push China out again short of conflict.

  5. Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr., the incoming president of the Philippines, will be allowed to set foot on United States soil without being detained over a long standing contempt order worth $353 million, a State Department official has confirmed…NOW WE KNOW WHY HE SUPPORT US AGAINST CHINA, HE WORST THEN HIS DAD not only corrupted NOW WANT TO DRAG HIS PEOPLE INTO WAR LIKE UKRAINE

  6. China being a dic* with bullying small nation in ASEAN, China claiming 70% of Asean nation sea territory is such an douche bag move. Ayungin shoal are 800 miles from China land, how can be they claimed something 600 miles away from their ZEE? China is always a bully

  7. The water cannon attacks are a lot worse than presented. The attacks have also led to a Philippine Navy sailor being injured.

    The attacks have led to significant destruction of the resupply ship's structures, rendering the vessel no longer seaworthy until repairs have been made.

    Other actions performed by the PRC on the disputed territories included hovering a helicopter 20 meters above Filipino academic researchers performing studies on a small island with dead corals. Downwash from the helicopter sent dead corals all over the Filipino researchers, significantly wounding them. These dead corals are also connected with the PRC's aggressive land reclamation actions on the islands.

  8. walang silbi sacrifice ng mga coastguard natin dahil hanggang ngayon pilipinoise ang source ng buhangin na ginagamit ng china sa paggawa ng manmade island goberno nating and may kasalan kaya kung giera mangibang bansa muna para safe

  9. If the US helps the Philippines like they are helping Ukraine for the past 6 months … They better get as many ships of their own as they can..

  10. Upside is this is great for the US Philippines alliance. We got your back brothers. We need to get you all some fair rates on modern weapons, especially missile ships, drone boats, and cheap drone weapons systems.

  11. China needs to be stopped by a coalition of nations. Philippines, Vietnam, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Australia and US. And add India as a secondary countrrmeasure on the other end as checkmate.

  12. "Uplifting news"

    Meanwhile in America: we're declaring states if emergencies, cancelling school, and have hospitals in disaster mode all because of the the influx of people; due to the eclipse and the chaos that is expected to cause on the region.
