Excellent documentary. Absolutely excellent. One thing can be clear. Out of the conflict between China and the Philippines came thriving new relationships. So now the Philippines has The US, Japan, Australia, France, and India helping it. All China's bullying did was make the Philippines closer to its allies more than ever.
@@yibeimurong as you guys can see I have angered some Chinese citizens. Of course Google won't let me translate what they are saying. But luckily my phone automatically does it with AI. They were talking about Prime Minister's and blah blah blah. I'm not Filipino. I am from North America. And if China keeps acting like this towards the Philippines. North America will take it to their waters. They will float warships and aircraft carriers up to China... and China will do nothing about it. Because they can do nothing about it
The fact is that when China was weak, some territories were taken away. But when China becomes strong again, we can naturally take them back. 中国人捕了上千年鱼的时候，你们的国家还没诞生吧，还在丛林里过着野蛮的生活。😂而且中国人从来不禁止菲律宾人来捕鱼，但是你们要尊重法律，要尊重禁渔区和禁渔期，保护环境才能永续开发❤
Then why does China whine about territories? I'm sure there were Filipino there for years. Besides, do you really want to get embarrassed again like the battle of yultong? Y'all sent 40,000 and got beat by 900. I'm pretty sure most of the Filipinos were just cooks and not even the best. The fact is 40,000 Chinese soldiers lost to 900! Did you not pay attention to international court rulings? Chinas claims are false claims you fool! Facts! 😂@@zhepengfeng8279
@@zhepengfeng8279That is Chinese story but the Philippines still won in international court because everyone know that everything that comes from your country is fake😂
It was the Philippines that was the main battleground for Japan and the US… now it’s Japan and the US best interest in protecting the country together.
The Philippines, despite being a predominantly Catholic country, accepted refugees of different backgrounds. 1923: White Russians during the Russian Revolution. Only the Philippines accepted them. 1934-1940: the Jews from Austria/Germany during the Holocaust when many countries declined to help. How the Philippines saved 1,200 Jews during Holocaust 1939: Spanish republicans, after the Spanish Civil War (Republicans vs. Nationalists) 1940: Chinese refugees after the Nanking Massacre and expansion of Japanese Empire. 1947: “white Russians” (Russians, Ukrainians, Polish, Armenians, Turko Tatars, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, Romanians, Czechs and Yugoslavs, Hungarians, Germans, and Austrians) after the creation of the People’s Republic of China. A forgotten episode in Russian history leaves links with the Philippines 1975-1992: Vietnamese boat people after the Vietnam War. A Vietnamese refugee camp was opened. 1979: anti-Khomeini Iranian students during the Iranian Revolution. PH-Iran celebrate 50 years of warm relations 1980-1994: Indochinese refugees from Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos. There were ESL (English as a second language) and primary education classes. 2000: East Timorese refugees during the 1999 East Timorese crisis 2014: the Muslims from Myanmar and Bangladesh during the Rohingya refugee crisis, after being rejected by Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. Philippines to accept refugees stuck at sea after being rejected across south-east Asia. The neighboring countries only changed their minds when the Philippines, a poorer country, decided to help.
A very good narrative for our country the Philippines. As the first Christian country in Asia, i believe in living up to those values of openness & to "love thy neighbor"... among others.
To clarify, the so-called "nine-dash line" was first published by the Republic of China (Taiwan) in 1947. When it comes to historical claims about the Spratly Islands, the Philippines has solid and undeniable evidence. Notably, in 1734, Jesuit Father Murillo Velarde created the first and most important scientific map of the Philippines, which clearly includes all the islands in the Spratlys. Moreover, according to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), to which China is a signatory, every coastal nation is entitled to a 200-nautical-mile Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This international law supersedes any historical claims, including China’s nine-dash line. The Philippines, therefore, has every right to defend its EEZ based on these international laws. Any attempts to cast the Philippines as a pawn of the US are misguided. The Philippines and the US have been allies since World War II, sharing a common commitment to protecting democracy. Our historical partnership was forged in our mutual struggle for freedom, and it’s natural for the Philippines to align with a superpower that helps safeguard our shared values. China's actions, including recent incursions and aggressive behavior in the West Philippine Sea, are concerning. Xi Jinping’s previous commitment to former US President Barack Obama not to militarize the man-made islands has been disregarded. This broken promise reflects poorly on China's reputation as a regional peacemaker and highlights their inconsistent adherence to international rules. In light of these issues, it’s clear that China’s actions often contradict their stated intentions, revealing a troubling pattern in their approach to regional stability and international norms.
"Protecting democracy" 😂 what drugs are you on? It's scary just how many people are deluded in thinking America is democratic and cares for democracy. Clearly such people don't know what democracy is, and what America truly is.
@@JonSnow-z5q It is important to note that UNCLOS is a treaty created after the 9-dash line map. And many countries including the US do not recognize the treaty. China may also withdraw from the treaty as needed, UN treaties are not law, the US and western powers regularly withdraw from them. Ultimately, if you claim it you have to back it up militarily.
@@olderchin1558 as mentioned, the Murillio Velarde map which was dated on 1734, long before the 9 dash line was created, the map clearly shows all the islands which is also known the spratlys are part of the Philippine archipelago. In terms of backing it up militarily, haven’t you noticed that many western powers and even the likes of Japan, South Korea and even Israel is backing up the Philippines militarily. India made its ever first sale of brahmos missiles to the Philippines, why is that? Do you think its a coincidence? I think not. This are like minded countries whose at stake is not just their own interest but the greater interest of freedom and democracy. Have you not noticed that Australia and New Zealand are not just vocal about their support to the Philippines, they are also collaborating militarily and sooner, they too will have a mutual defense treaty with the Philippines. Because they know, the first island chain which Taiwan is part of, should be kept check and remain to be independent whoever seats in the White House. This also makes Japan now beefing up its military spending which is now 3rd highest in world ranking. What made this behavior so apparent to many regional powers in Asia Pacific, the answer is China. It sees China as a regional threat. And I wouldn’t be surprise if there will be a NATO type of alliance here in Asia. China is pushing its neighbors to create alliances which China furiously condemns.
@@JonSnow-z5q I would agree with you if you were dealing with Iran or Japan. China is a nuclear superpower with the world's largest industry power. It makes its own weapons. You don't scare a superpower, you just anger it. Russia is a fine example. And if all the countries you mentioned amounted to hill of beans, maybe. And if there were something to lose, maybe. The US removed most of the incentives for china to be good with it's coalition of anti-china gang and sanctions. In case you haven't noticed, Xi is preparing for war with China stockpiling stuff, accelerating BRICS and BRI.
Exactly. They are crazy diven by their geediness. That is why China do all what they can to use their MACHURIAN POLITICIAN DUTERTES and their allies to ruin the Philippine government so that SARA ( WOH ) China's DOG will be the President.
China’s methodology is very simple, build a big naval fleet and intimidate their neighbours into submission. Their motives are also quite clear, to establish their backyard fencing as far out as possible, even though it intrudes into their neighbours own territory. What is not clear is whether they are willing to sacrifice their blood and future because, even with all their superiority in numbers, a quick victory is not guaranteed. Most of their neighbours, with smaller militaries, are not willing to enter into any conflict even with the US forces but they will certainly act in unison when they are pushed because they have coordinated their forces with each other.

It is an almost PTSD response to US’s containment policy. As hard as it is to say. In China’s eyes, this policy is the difference between the battleground being Shenzhen or on some random Philippine islands. Big big differences.
Philippine further allows US base does not help with this idea at all. This basically mark Philippine as a definite target in case of war. This would be a hard geopolitical game to play from Philippine’s side. They have to act neutral while also not neutral. I doubt that the current Philippine governing body has the wisdom to navigate this dark water. It is most likely gonna be the battleground.

The Philippines has a population of 200 million. Instead of thinking about how to be self-reliant and strong, you always like to boast about having support from various countries. This kind of behavior is truly pathetic.
The retired chinese gen keeps saying i dont understand why ph and japan want to defend themselves after chinese constant line stepping. Someone pls give this man a mirror, the reflection you see is the reason why. 😅
Of course he is ! At this point this dude isn't even credible. Best example, in October 25 2023 at the 15th SCS International Conference in Vietnam. Zhou Bo tried to gaslight Jay Tarriela (Philippine Coast Guard Spokesperson for West Philippine Sea) only to get burned ! Zhou Bo tried to state the nonsense he did in this video but everyone sided with Jay instead and got cheered on. It's worth a watch! Zhou Bo looked pathetic after Jay practically owned him.
The Philippines broke the peace and tranquility Gentleman's agreement (no movement, no armed patrols and no construction materials) in South China Sea (disputed area) and plays the victim. The Philippines keeps saying that they were sending living necessities, but secretly they've been trying to send construction materials and even weapons and ammunition to the grounded warship for the long-term occupation of Ren'ai Jiao (Second Thomas Shoal).
your description is inadequate, where it says "Armed with knives and axes..." It was only China who was armed. Next paragraph in your description states "As confrontations with China increase in frequency..." This should be (per their actions under International Law), "As confrontations caused by China increase in frequency." China needs something better to do and CNA needs to learn to be less biased.
sometimes news agencies confuse "being impartial" with twisting statements and facts to make two parties seem equally balanced in morality/immorality even if they are clearly not
hahahaha you're talking about *unarmed* Philippine military special task force with bags of guns hidden in their boat??🤣🤣 How brave of the PH military men to surrender to Chinese police who used only Kung Fu fighting with an axe??
Have you not seen the video the Philippines personnel on BRP Madre Sierra pointing guns at China Coast Guard officers on May 19, 2024? and _'Philippine warship (BRP Sierra Madre) personnels driving boats towards China Coast Guard and harassed them. Philippine personnels: "Hey, go away! go away, go away, Go back to China!" China Coast Guards responded: "THIS IS CHINA! Go back to the Philippines!" [Philippine personnels went back to the ship and hide inside warship]'_ *- China Coast Guard responds solemnly to Philippine personnel provocations, New China TV, Jun 21, 2024*
Hahaha and the very brave Philippine Navy's special task force with guns surrendered to Chinese pirates who used only Kung Fu fighting with an axe?? How heroic were the PH military men! 🤣
The Philippines keeps accusing China of “ bullying and intimidating smaller countries” without mentioning at all the Philippine occupation of and encroachment on China’s territory in Nansha Qundao. That is a real propaganda “trap”. On the issue of Ren’ai Jiao, it’s not the size, but the behavior of a country that determines who is right and who is wrong. Right after the Philippines deliberately grounded its warship on Ren’ai Jiao in 1999, which seriously violated China’s sovereignty, China made démarches to the Philippines, and the Philippines promised to tow away the warship several times. A senior official of the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs made it clear that the Philippines had no intention of building any facility on Ren’ai Jiao and it doesn’t want to and will not be the first country to violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC). But 25 years on, not only hasn’t the Philippines fulfilled its promise to tow away the warship, it has even attempted to send construction materials for large-scale repair and reinforcement of the warship in order to build permanent structures on Ren’ai Jiao. The Philippines has gone back on its words, and stirred up trouble to provoke China. This is not only breach of the understandings between the two sides on handling the Ren’ai Jiao issue, but also a violation of the DOC, especially its Article 5 on refraining from action of inhabiting on the presently uninhabited islands, reefs, shoals, cays, and other features. The Philippines is clearly responsible for the current tensions in the South China Sea. China and ASEAN countries have long been committed to properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation between states directly involved, and worked together to jointly maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea, which has kept the South China Sea generally stable. But for some time, the Philippines has been pulling non-regional actors into the South China Sea affairs to back Philippine provocations and violation of China’s sovereignty. The Philippines has been pursing selfish gains at the expense of the consensus reached by countries in the region. This is the main reason why the situation in the the South China Sea has escalated and become more complicated. The Philippines need to respect the facts, observe the relevant understandings between the two sides and DOC provisions, follow the consensus reached between China and ASEAN countries, and return to the right track of properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation as soon as possible.
Okay, I'm going to comment here before Chinese bots overwhelm the comment section. Let me put this into context... For a moment, I want you all to set aside all politics, and try to level with me here as a human that has a thinking brain up your head. Imagine yourself in the position of the Philippines, you're poor and got many economic and political problems already. Then almost out of nowhere, here comes a rising global power that for some reason seems intent to rob you of one of your key areas that you rely on for your energy, food security, and national security. Most investors won't invest in you because your electricity is more expensive than other counties in the same region, you could drill for oil and gas in your own sea but China won't allow you because of an imaginary 9-dash line that somehow means that your sea is not yours, and it's China's instead. And then there the issue of your fisherfolk, a lot of folks relies on fishing just to get by, then somehow starting these past decade, China start restricting and driving away your people from their traditional fishing grounds, where they have been fishing from for generations. You know China is much bigger, wealthier, and stronger than you. But you, as a sovereign country, with your own identity and rich history, also have a right to exist and prosper, just as China had. What do you do? We made do with what we had. We got a mutual defense treaty with the US since 1951, long before Xi Jinping, long before China even set its sight to its "South Sea". We know that the US is the only one capable of checking China and ensure that it doesn't do anything too dangerously aggressively hostile. We pivoted to the west not because we wanted to, we did because China pushed us! We tried to deal with them bilaterally as they wanted but they kept bullying us and imposed unfair status quo on us. We're acting on for OUR national interests, not for the US's. That's the important thing that the media fails to emphasize enough, the Philippines is acting on its own agency, not the US's. This is about the Philippines and China! It just so happens that there is also a strategic competition between China and the US. Acting to defend our sovereignity and national interests is NOT being a puppet to the US!
I'm putting this here to help clarify the Philippines' position to others, even if this comment is very likely to get hidden, or flooded by Wumao/Makapili trolls, and bots, because the Philippines is worth it. 1. China is subject to the arbitral court ruling because it is a SIGNATORY to the UNCLOS, and did not exempt itself upon signing from compulsory arbitration on the topic of under which this issue falls, UNLIKE what it did for other topics covered by the UNCLOS. 2. That the PH is "making a fuss at the behest of the US all of a sudden" is complete nonsense. The Philippines kicked out the US bases in the 90's, after we peacefully revolted and kicked out a US-backed leader who had ruled for 20 years. Years later, while the PH was embroiled in fighting insurgents, and internal disputes, China rapidly seized and militarized islands and geographic features in the region. In response, we grounded a WW2 ship, we couldn't afford doing anything at the scale and sophistication China was doing unprovoked. Nonetheless, things cooled down and we had a peaceful, friendly, and productive relationship with China in the several years that followed. US military presence in the area was limited to anti-terrorism, but that was when the whole world was participating in the War on Terror. In 2013, while the PH was still fighting internal conflicts and had utterly neglected its navy, and the South China Sea issue was dormant, China, completely unprovoked, suddenly SEIZED a shoal that could have the capital metropolitan area within MISSILE range, leading to a ridiculous standoff where China outnumbered a lone warship dozens, if not hundreds to one. The US got the PH to try and back away at the same time as China, but China stealthily returned and coopted the island. The US, and other Asian countries tried to tell the PH to NOT bring the case to an international court, but we won and now Malaysia, and Vietnam want to replicate it. Obama called what we lost "a bunch of rocks" and were off focused in the Middle East. We had SIX YEARS of Duterte, who driven by adamant anti-American sentiment, and in part because of his strongman-populist style of politics, felt a keen sense of admiration and kinship with China, and Russia. He almost terminated the entire MDT and diplomatic relationship between PH and US, and wound down and even skipped the annual military exercises for one year. He limited Navy patrols to the Territorial Sea of the Philippines (12nm from shore), and left the entire EEZ (200nm from shore) almost unprotected. What did China do? They scammed Duterte by funding almost NONE of the infrastructure investment programs they pledged to, they SUNK some fishermen's boat and left them for dead (they had to be rescued by the Vietnamese Coast Guard) and Duterte and his Pro-China camp were DISCOURAGING these fishermen from speaking up, or taking legal action. China continued to militarize the area, they overfish in our waters, AND they poison corral reefs either in an attempt to reduce Filipino fishermen presence and make the area easier to annex, or to help in military reclamation and construction. Duterte only wised up and began procurement against China's maritime encroachment in the LAST TWO out of six years of his term, and even then to practically full exclusion of the USA. To this day, China's coast guard is composed of armed, military-operations-spec warships painted white rather than civilian search and rescue and law enforcement, accompanied by armed militias commissioned to loiter to passively assert Chinese claims, and to help in harassment of Filipino vessels. Marcos won the 2022 elections with a message that he would continue Duterte's appeasement policy, but upon visiting Beijing and meeting with Xi Jinping, he was met with the same pledges, WHICH DID NOT MATERIALIZE, and CONTINUED harassment and annexation and blockading by China. SO OF COURSE he rekindled the relationship with the US, why WOULDN'T any Filipino head of state do that given the circumstances??? 3. The Philippines was building alliances and advocating its cause mostly to other democratic states for years before the US finally came around and realized how bad the situation was. We were advocating for this EVEN BEFORE the US cared, or paid attention, or began thinking to help us. We were building networks with Australia, Japan, etc. to create a bulwark of democratic states at risk of being dominated by China even without the US. So no, this isn't a unilateral initiative masterminded by Americans, it's cooperation by free Asian-Oceanian states who don't want to suffer Colonialism 2.0. Trust us, we know what it's like, and we can tell the difference between foreign states working with us, or using us. 4. I don't know why every time the US is brought up in the Philippines, international media brings such a massive spotlight on that group of protesters (the ones protesting US presence), when those are militant far-left protesters who are not credible, or popular, and generally scoffed at by the general public, and have protested just about everything the PH government has ever done, good, or bad, on EVERY issue since the Cold War. The statistics are RIGHT THERE to show how out of touch. The only time they get clout is when they lay exclusive claim to the entire discourse and advocacies that the general public sympathizes on, but always link it to leftist politics. The left in the Philippines perceive ANY interaction by the PH with any Western state as somehow an exact replication of CIA-backed Cold-War black operations, ironically painting the PH as having zero agency in the conduct of its own state affairs. They are disturbingly far more quiet against China's outright blockading, militarization, and annexing of our waters than rotational American presence on PHILIPPINE bases (I make ZERO excuse for American atrocities during the PH-US War, and Cold War manipulation, but these are different times, different dynamics, and different problems, something the far left in the PH are painfully loathe to even recognize). But make no mistake, the far left and the pro-China Duterte camps, although sharing certain ideological leanings, are bitterly against one another. If international media (or even domestic media) knew better, they would have focused on statistics, and the civic groups like Atin 'To since they are better gauges of true public sentiment, and efforts regarding the issue, representing a wider economic, geographic, and political spectrum of the PH in support of this issue. The far left always claim we should be able to defend ourselves by ourselves, but are the same guys who would say like our military deserves zero budget, make no mention of defense procurement, and never even think of domestic security manufacturing, and industry, and never mention building alliances, and networks with other democratic neighbors. 5. To counter the Chinese colonel's mentioning of the killing of Chinese, Taiwanese persons out at sea, if you look up Guang Da Xing No. 28 incident, or how our Coast Guard Commodore already answered the colonel in an international conference, the PH already CONVICTED and IMPRISONED the perpetrators, issued a FORMAL APOLOGY to Taiwan, and paid damages. The Philippines, for all its faults, is a responsible member of the international community, and we are a pioneer state with an outsized contribution to the development of international law despite our size, and military power relative to other giants. 6. The MDT is always active in the sense that it is a legal framework by which US, and the PH can continuously talk and coordinate as to how to make a coordinated response to any military threat. Given that the PH, and the US DON'T WANT A WAR, and we're trying not to get baited by China into firing the first shot, OF COURSE we don't run around treating the MDT like a magical WW3 button. We know it's a trap, and and if we fall for it our moral, political, and security gains from years of hard work can vanish in a flash. We Filipinos HATE war, and we're sick and tired of it, but we hate colonialism, and foreign invasion even more. 7. Chinese token military contributions to the PH are pathetically negligible, mostly not compatible with the rest of our logistical chain rendering them limited in usefulness, and more expensive, difficult to maintain, and none of which contribute to the greatest geopolitical, economic, and existential threat to out nation's future: China's annexation in the SCS. 8. The "West Philippine Sea" (Philippine term) is a technical term that refers to a SUBSET of the South China Sea (international name based on geography, NOT political entitlement of China) which falls within the Philippines' EEZ under UNCLOS. Unlike China, we do not claim an entire sea as our territory as if it were a lake, but rather part of it as our legal maritime entitlement.
@@nnqi3475 "The Chinese sovereignty over the islands and reefs also allows the Chinese to own the EEZ around the Nansha Islands, so the West Philippine Sea that the Philippines has been claiming is complete nonsense." This is false for many different reasons. First of all, claims of sovereignty without permanent habitat is pretty much empty claim. Second, by UNCLOS, reefs, shoals and artificial islands do not cause EEZ, so even if somehow world accepted China's claims of sovereignty over shoals that have never had permanent habitation, it wouldn't give China any EEZ in the area. Third, i'm pretty sure nobody is ever going to accept China's claims of empty ocean with reefs, shoals and artificial islands and even less so considering the shoal in question is 1000km from China but within EEZ of Philippines
@@nnqi3475 No treaty ever gave any of these islands and geographical features to China, be it PRC or ROC, as even the Imperial Japanese did not relinquish control TO the ROC once it surrendered. Hainan is the limit of official territory historically claimed and controlled by China by their own maps. The historical claim is neither factually credible to the wider academe nor legally acceptable to a tribunal of international law. The Philippines has exercised jurisdiction over it as evidenced by official cartographical, and hydrographical of the exact islands and features as part of the archipelago for over a century. The Philippines did not start the escalation, as it is ridiculous to claim that mere DISAGREEMENT by itself is an act of aggression or escalation, as without such negotiation would not even be a thing. China is the one that MILITARIZED and SEIZED these islands and features FROM OTHER NEIGHBORING STATES, even when there is no military threat posed, or escalatory threats posed by its neighbors. You only say what I wrote is "too long", and you'll only respond to the last part because the PRC has absolutely no credible, sensible, and justifiable claim to the area. To claim SCS is only 'partly' claimed by China is splitting hairs at this point - that it attempts to annex practically ALL of it as to be neck and neck with territorial sea (12nm) of each neighbor despite far exceeding Hainan's EEZ is in and of itself an act of blatant expansionist imperialism. "Wishful thinking" is when someone's distorted view of reality and cognitive dissonance leads it to have a position incongruent with reality, shown by how no one, not even China's 'allies' believe China's ridiculous claims for even a second. But what do we expect from an ideologically authoritarian, one-party state? You guys are acting just like Imperial Japan of WW2, who both of our countries fought against.

Filipinos are not afraid of China and the world must remember that when the Philippines fought China for the first time, China was defeated. It was April 22-23, 1951 during the Battle of Yultong in the Korean War, a vastly outnumbered 900 Philippine Army batallion troopers (part of the UN forces) fought and defeated a 40,000 strong division of China’s People’s Liberation Army (fighting with the North Korean forces). The Chinese retreated after 500 of them were killed. Two dozen Filipinos died as heroes. China today must think twice before fighting again the vastly outnumbered but braver professional Filipino soldiers.
@@mshking-p6f China is always bluffing and it hopes that small countries will give in to their intimidation tactics. In reality, China's tactics are just empty words and intimidation. China said that it will punish Taiwan if Nancy Pelosi's visit went ahead. After Pelosi's visit, China practically did nothing. China is aware that if it fires the first shot, it will be crushed decisively that's why it resorts to gray zone tactics. China has no real experience when it comes to military confrontation. The last time it used it's tanks was against unarmed students in Tianamen Square.
Strong to the Weak and Weak to the Strong. That's the history of China and the Chinese. They only conquer smaller and weaker states like Tibet and other nearby weak states they occupy but bow down to great empires like UK, Mongols, French, Germans, Portuguese, Russians, Japanese and Americans.
Sure the pinoy was also colonized by Spanish conquistadors giving them Latin last name but still looking very much like Korean or Japanese, occupied by Japanese forces and Manila lost during the Tagalo American War
It sounds like the Americans invading and killing millions all over the world, but always weak states. They don't have the guts to fight a nuclear power, not even North Korea!
@@한국남자6cm great contributions to the conversation and post, We wonder in school during history and human civilization what if African countries had an army like the Chinese Takara Warriors with full Armour, spears, arrows and archery/crossbows.

Chinese Dynasty the Qing and Ming Dynasty were able to repeal the Portuguese and British colonizers from colonizing the whole territory of China during the Opium War. The British trick the Chinese to make them believe that opium was good medicine 💊 for Chinese population during a trade deficit on those days. To prevent mire bloodshed to both sides, officials from the Qing Dynasty were force to give up a small fishing port of Macau to Portugal and another fish port of Hong Kong to the British in 1850s. The British use the port of Hong Kong to push more drugs into the Qing Dynasty population but the opium bus stops when the Hong Kong population able to rehab for themselves. Same happened to India the whole country was colonized for 76 years, France was able to colonized the Vietnamese and nearby South pacific Asia territory.

Question? Will the USA intervene in the dispute/Confrontational clashes in the South China Sea (SCS), between the Republic of the Philippines and People's Republic of China, Beijing? The Govt policy is to observe Subdued Restraint and not to fire the first shot. YES, the USA will automatically respond if any of the assets & citizens (Private or uniformed) is killed as a direct casualty of the clashes. Arguing further, the 194 member States of the United Nation (UN), had known the existence of the Mutual Defense Treaty (MDT) between the PH & US as an after effect of World War ll. Example of the existence of the treaty is the 1952-53 Korean War. Filipino & American fought side by side, MDT was then ratified by both the PH & US Senate in 1951. I am a taxpayer of my country who strictly observed the freedom of speech enshrined in the constitution, this representation is challenging the Chinese, Beijing to test the Treaty by starting the WAR, by killing any of PH citizens at sea or land.

To get the US 🇺🇸 to intervene, the Philippines 🇵🇭 needs *to use its armed forces first* to defend its fishermen and to take back the control of its water. - Chinese relaliation, which China wouldn't dare, will be handled by the US-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaties.
I come from China, and I can attest that China doesn't dare to start a war. China doesn't want to have a war with anyone, if you care. There have been so many provocations around China, all orchestrated by the US, with other regions as puppets. If China wants to escalate any situation, it has had many chances. You can play on. You can provoke. You can humiliate. But China wants peace, and not war. And that's what I would do as well. I don't join just any fight I get invited into.

I understand why Philippines wants to claim the South China Sea islands. After all it’s very near the Philippines shores. But I have one question: since when the Philippines started to claim the islands? They were certainly not part of the Paris Treaty signed by Spain and the USA in 1898 which transferred the Philippines’ sovereignty from Spain to the USA, nor was it in the Mutual Defence Treaty of 1951 between the Philippines and the U.S. I have a Philippine map printed in the 1990s which indicates the western boundary lines clearly exclude any of these islands.
1900 Treaty of Washington is never mentioned because China realized it misinterpreted it. Also the US realized 2 years after 1898 that Spain nearly screwed them over an additional sets of islands and waters and wanted them too. Hence why that 1900 treaty was declared. Asides ,those CFMs clowns kept mentioning how the Philippines is territory is binded by 3 treaties and yet after I looked into it ...that 10 dash-line STILL illegally intersects into Philippine sovereignty and Malaysia's. So it's hypocritical. People have caught on.
It was part of the Treaty of WASHINGTON wc closely followed & ammended & corrected the territorial scope of the 1898 Treaty of Paris, to have included the pertinent islands of most of the Sratleys, etc.
Does 'everyone here' refer to Western media and their lackeys? If so, I can't deny it, but your statement is as ridiculous as Israel accusing Palestine of invading Israel, turning black and white upside down.
At least we're not pussiеs like Anwar and Jokowi. Digong too. Not BBM. Ilocanos, are like Spartans and most of soldiers in the Philippines are Ilocanos. No Cebuano. No Mindanaoan. No Tagalog. No Waray. Mostly are Ilocanos. Ilonggos come second.
The 9-dash line merely demarcates the SCS islands claimed by China since 1945 after Japan surrendered the islands. “Professor Robert Beckman, ISEAS July 2016: “DISPUTES ON TERRITORIAL SOVEREIGNTY The Philippines did not raise any issue with respect to which state had a superior claim to sovereignty over the islands in the South China Sea. This is because an Arbitral Tribunal established under UNCLOS can only consider disputes on the interpretation or application of UNCLOS, and UNCLOS contains no provisions on how to resolve sovereignty issues. Therefore, the award of the tribunal does not address the underlying dispute in the South China Sea - the competing claims to sovereignty over the islands. Further, although the tribunal found that China’s claim to historic rights in the 9 dash line is not compatible with UNCLOS, it did not rule that the nine-dash line per se is illegal or invalid. China is under no obligation to formally denounce the nine-dash line. The nine-dash line is still relevant because it shows the location of the various islands in the South China Sea over which China claims sovereignty.”
Hahaha and the very brave Philippine Navy's special task force surrendered to Chinese pirates who used only Kung Fu fighting with an axe?? How brave of PH military men! 🤣
32:45 you welcome Marcos because you know their history- and you know he is teamed with him. We’re giving him a chance for himself.

My take on this.... China has been continually undermining the Philippines because the latter has to deal a lot of internal matter such as corruption. This corruption that has existed for decades and has lost a lot of money/resources that can be used instead for strengthening its military. Vietnam learned a lot from its own past conflict with China, the Philippines should learn from this.
The Treaty of Peace which Japan signed/with China at the city of San Francisco on 8 September 1951, Japan renounced all right, title, and claim to Taiwan (Formosa) and Penghu (the Pescadores) as well as the Spratly Islands and the Paracel Islands. A Tomas Cloma in 1956 settled on the islands declared it "Freedomland", and requested to make the territory a protectorate of the Philippines. In July 1956, he apologised officially for his act and he surrendered the flag he stole to China's embassy in Manila. AN promised not to violate.
Why don't you mention china's own vaccine disinformation campaign against western vaccines? I get that it's standard practice for the ccp but its important to provide context nonetheless.
Singapore also experiences massive Chinese influences--be it offshoring loots from the mainland, trades and tourists so even historically opened, democratic Singapore media outlets like CNA has to dance around inconvenient truths. Here, the narrative makes it seems like it's a relative matter of whataboutism, that both China and the US--somehow caused tensions in throughout Asia--involving China and India, Japan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan, etc.
There are many in our country (over 10 million) who only took the Chinese vaccines and they are all still fine. No Covid, no cardiac dysfunction, no side effects. There are some friends who took the US vaccines and they are all sick sick sick of it. Some got severe covid, and some got it twice, even after 5 doses. I am not Chinese.
Is the retired senior colonel Zhou Bo eaten something weird before he took the interview? that his head doesn't operate normally!? This is just so funny! Why would "a small country called the Philippines" as he said would use force against the Chinese who he said is "a major power"? Why would anyone do that!? This is just like perceiving at a scenario where a mouse bullies a cat. The logic is so perplexing! This clearly shows that China as a whole is the absolute bully and an aggressor, even its constituents are responding groundlessly. Next time don't interview a person who are mentally questionable......
Excerpt from a USIP article - It is worth recalling that in 2012, the United States chose to persuade the Philippines to withdraw from Scarborough Shoal (a separate set of features north of the Spratlys) while making no effort to compel the PRC to do the same. In effect, Washington forced Manila to cede that set of features to the PRC.
@@wangchung7599 We know they are practically unstoppable once determined to fight an enemy, and we now also know that the PRC does not understand the very concept of an independent state as its regional neighbor that has its own political and cultural values and a desire to remain free and undominated by an authoritarian state that thinks it's entitled to control and do what it pleases with everyone else
My view is that US will not intervene but will instead provoke and fuel any confrontations between China and Philippines. THis is how US operate in many proxy wars. It is up to the Philippines to be use by the US to be US pawn in its proxy war.
Check the history of US, Philippines, and Australia first before commenting. They are helping each other since world war 1 for 100+ years in dealing wars. PH being ally with US is never been a questioned, they are partners in wars for many years from World War 1, Sino-China war, Korean War, World War 2, Vietnam war. It's the longest ally of US in Asia and has trained each other for almost 50 years. US and PH partnership in wars is never a questioned. PH just don't want US to intervene. It's the PH don't want US to intervene and solve the issues in the South China Sea. Read clearly the news update in CRUX. PH rejected the help of US coz they don't want to escalate into bigger confontations. I always hear PH bein used by US, That's totally ignorant know the history of US and PH first to avoid being laughable. China realize the danger of being too agressive in West Philippine Sea. One mistake and China will go back to being poor just like 70 years ago where 4million chinese surrendered.
The US is not ready to intervene. Neither does the US expect this to break out into open conflict. This leaves the ball with Narcis Jr. and how he wants to play ball.
War is the favorite word of US. US is always ready to have a war anytime anywhere. US goes to war every day around the world. China just doesn’t have gots to have a war. Their military has no experience with War. They just bully small countries in asia that don’t fight back…
A Filipino domestic helper was diagnosed with leprosy, a serious bacterial infection, shortly after her arrival, causing considerable anxiety for her employer and highlighting potential gaps in the health screening process for foreign workers. The domestic helper, employed by a Hong Kong family through a local employment agency, started showing symptoms such as red spots and swelling in her limbs within weeks of starting her job. Her condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to her admission to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with leprosy on 14th June, 2024, believed to have been contracted in her home country, the Philippines. Reference: “Leprosy diagnosis of Filipino domestic helper in HK distresses employer, compensation denied by agency citing clean health report”

Carta Hydrographica y Chorographica de las Islas Filipinas (Spanish, lit. "Hydrographical and Chorographical Chart of the Philippine Islands"), more commonly known as the Velarde map, is a map of the Philippines made and first published in Manila in 1734 by the Jesuit cartographer Pedro Murillo Velarde, the engraver Nicolás de la Cruz Bagay, and the artist Francisco Suárez.[2][3] The World Digital Library describes it as the "first and most important scientific map of the Philippines".[4] It is frequently referred to as the "Mother of all Philippine Maps".
@@nestlecruz7618 Wrong! There is only one and single International court that possess the judicial power to decide and validate the claim i.e. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) since 1942, or Permanent Court of International Justice (1922-1944).
I think that China and the US/Philippines might end up having at least one hot war, just to determine who this place belongs to. After all, the Americans and Filipinos believe that as long as the US military is backing them, they are invincible. This world operates on the principle of the strong eating the weak. The US can control the world, isn't it because they have more than 800 overseas military bases supporting them?😂😂😂
US is not as strong as past times. They are crumbling down inside. But they can't call back their bases outside US because they will loose face internationally
War is expensive for a struggling economy especially, and China will gain nothing from it. Not saying impossible, but highly unlikely. It’s just a shtshow.
My condolences to *all Chinese* who lost their freedom of speech and independent brain, and have become victims of *expansionism in disguise of nationalism* with the fact that China is no superpower: - The GDP per capita of the second most populous country is *99th* in the world, still behind many African countries, - It *doesn't respect* international laws and orders, and - it's *coercive* against smaller nations.
GDP per capita is 72nd but bots don't have brains! International 'laws and orders'? You mean those made by warmonger USA and suppirted by their puppets? This will change a lot in the near future, but keep up with your BS propaganda!
International law is not observed and respected by the PRC and CCP. For example: The International ruling on the 9 dash line would have been accepted by China if the ruling was in its favour, but as it isn't, well we are seeing what the PRC will do to still invoke what it feels is its right!! Japan, Taiwan and The Philippines must maintain strong bonds and work together to keep International laws and rights in the face of Chinese bullying.
There was no such an 'international ruling' to begin with... it was a Court of Arbitration, which says on its own website that it's NOT AFFILIATED with the United Nations but only a third-party NGO 😅😅 The PH government lied to its citizens by making it sound like a real international court in the UN that gave a verdict. But unfortunately, it never happened..

The Philippines keeps accusing China of “ bullying and intimidating smaller countries” without mentioning at all the Philippine occupation of and encroachment on China’s territory in Nansha Qundao. That is a real propaganda “trap”. On the issue of Ren’ai Jiao, it’s not the size, but the behavior of a country that determines who is right and who is wrong. Right after the Philippines deliberately grounded its warship on Ren’ai Jiao in 1999, which seriously violated China’s sovereignty, China made démarches to the Philippines, and the Philippines promised to tow away the warship several times. A senior official of the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs made it clear that the Philippines had no intention of building any facility on Ren’ai Jiao and it doesn’t want to and will not be the first country to violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC). But 25 years on, not only hasn’t the Philippines fulfilled its promise to tow away the warship, it has even attempted to send construction materials for large-scale repair and reinforcement of the warship in order to build permanent structures on Ren’ai Jiao. The Philippines has gone back on its words, and stirred up trouble to provoke China. This is not only breach of the understandings between the two sides on handling the Ren’ai Jiao issue, but also a violation of the DOC, especially its Article 5 on refraining from action of inhabiting on the presently uninhabited islands, reefs, shoals, cays, and other features. The Philippines is clearly responsible for the current tensions in the South China Sea. China and ASEAN countries have long been committed to properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation between states directly involved, and worked together to jointly maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea, which has kept the South China Sea generally stable. But for some time, the Philippines has been pulling non-regional actors into the South China Sea affairs to back Philippine provocations and violation of China’s sovereignty. The Philippines has been pursing selfish gains at the expense of the consensus reached by countries in the region. This is the main reason why the situation in the the South China Sea has escalated and become more complicated. The Philippines need to respect the facts, observe the relevant understandings between the two sides and DOC provisions, follow the consensus reached between China and ASEAN countries, and return to the right track of properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation as soon as possible.

People must understand that the International Arbitration Court is a private entity and is not an institution of the UN like the ICJ or the ICC. In a arbitration case, both or more parties involved agreed to bring and settle their problems in the IAC or other court of arbitration like in Singapore. If all parties are agreeable then the Court verdict is legally binding on all parties. Note that China didn't agree to arbitrate as apparently China is already aware this western run private institution verdict will not be in China favour. In short, the IAC verdict in favour of the Philippines is not binding. Taiwan even didn't accept the IAC verdict. Never be fooled by thinking that the IAC is an international institution because it's not.
China are one of the members and signatories of the world rulings. Also, china invaded just 100 kilometer away in Philippines cost. What are they doing around Philippines costal perimeter. Clearly they are thousands away from their shores
Former Malaysian prime minister Mahathir said even though the US is not in the South China Sea, but the United States seems to like to provoke confrontation between nations to the point of they are going to war against each other, as happened between Ukraine and Russia. When there is a war, the US is a big arms dealer. They produce a lot of arms and they can sell their arms only when there is tension and war in any region. So when the speaker of the US [Nancy Pelosi] visited Taiwan, that was provocative. And since then Taiwan has got to improve its military capacity by buying weapons from America. So America has profited out of this visit. th-cam.com/video/6sSO2T72DG0/w-d-xo.html
Exactly. Look at any nation which was "helped" by American intervention . They were functional countries, until the US intervention turned them to rubble. Americans are a wolf in the sheep's clothing kind of friends and bring death and destruction to whatever they touch.
That is a gross oversimplification of local geopolitics. You basically justified bullying on the international stage as a "peaceful" resolution by not providing the means by the little guys to defend themselves. Put it more crudely, you are arguing for the violent offender "rights" to dictate your life by accusing those who teach the victims on how to defend themselves for provoking a fight and prolonging conflicts in which a quick resolution would have achieved if they didn't intervene because they stopped you from overrunning the place. This is the insidious argument au authoritarian regime. "Give up the fight, you would lose anyway, let us do what we want with you because you get to "live" by being subservient to us."

For a small country, the worst thing you could do is to take sides between two great powers, especially when you decide to side with the declining one. There’s a reason why the Philippines have fallen from one of the richest countries in Asia after wwII to THE exemplary failed nation in Asia. Ask any other ASEAN country.

Excellent documentary. Absolutely excellent. One thing can be clear. Out of the conflict between China and the Philippines came thriving new relationships. So now the Philippines has The US, Japan, Australia, France, and India helping it. All China's bullying did was make the Philippines closer to its allies more than ever.

To clarify, the so-called "nine-dash line" was first published by the Republic of China (Taiwan) in 1947. When it comes to historical claims about the Spratly Islands, the Philippines has solid and undeniable evidence. Notably, in 1734, Jesuit Father Murillo Velarde created the first and most important scientific map of the Philippines, which clearly includes all the islands in the Spratlys.
Moreover, according to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), to which China is a signatory, every coastal nation is entitled to a 200-nautical-mile Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This international law supersedes any historical claims, including China’s nine-dash line.
The Philippines, therefore, has every right to defend its EEZ based on these international laws. Any attempts to cast the Philippines as a pawn of the US are misguided. The Philippines and the US have been allies since World War II, sharing a common commitment to protecting democracy. Our historical partnership was forged in our mutual struggle for freedom, and it’s natural for the Philippines to align with a superpower that helps safeguard our shared values.
China's actions, including recent incursions and aggressive behavior in the West Philippine Sea, are concerning. Xi Jinping’s previous commitment to former US President Barack Obama not to militarize the man-made islands has been disregarded. This broken promise reflects poorly on China's reputation as a regional peacemaker and highlights their inconsistent adherence to international rules.
In light of these issues, it’s clear that China’s actions often contradict their stated intentions, revealing a troubling pattern in their approach to regional stability and international norms.
"Protecting democracy" 😂 what drugs are you on? It's scary just how many people are deluded in thinking America is democratic and cares for democracy. Clearly such people don't know what democracy is, and what America truly is.
@@JonSnow-z5q It is important to note that UNCLOS is a treaty created after the 9-dash line map. And many countries including the US do not recognize the treaty. China may also withdraw from the treaty as needed, UN treaties are not law, the US and western powers regularly withdraw from them.
Ultimately, if you claim it you have to back it up militarily.
@@olderchin1558 as mentioned, the Murillio Velarde map which was dated on 1734, long before the 9 dash line was created, the map clearly shows all the islands which is also known the spratlys are part of the Philippine archipelago. In terms of backing it up militarily, haven’t you noticed that many western powers and even the likes of Japan, South Korea and even Israel is backing up the Philippines militarily. India made its ever first sale of brahmos missiles to the Philippines, why is that? Do you think its a coincidence? I think not. This are like minded countries whose at stake is not just their own interest but the greater interest of freedom and democracy. Have you not noticed that Australia and New Zealand are not just vocal about their support to the Philippines, they are also collaborating militarily and sooner, they too will have a mutual defense treaty with the Philippines. Because they know, the first island chain which Taiwan is part of, should be kept check and remain to be independent whoever seats in the White House. This also makes Japan now beefing up its military spending which is now 3rd highest in world ranking. What made this behavior so apparent to many regional powers in Asia Pacific, the answer is China. It sees China as a regional threat. And I wouldn’t be surprise if there will be a NATO type of alliance here in Asia. China is pushing its neighbors to create alliances which China furiously condemns.
@@JonSnow-z5q I would agree with you if you were dealing with Iran or Japan. China is a nuclear superpower with the world's largest industry power. It makes its own weapons. You don't scare a superpower, you just anger it. Russia is a fine example.
And if all the countries you mentioned amounted to hill of beans, maybe. And if there were something to lose, maybe. The US removed most of the incentives for china to be good with it's coalition of anti-china gang and sanctions.
In case you haven't noticed, Xi is preparing for war with China stockpiling stuff, accelerating BRICS and BRI.

China’s methodology is very simple, build a big naval fleet and intimidate their neighbours into submission. Their motives are also quite clear, to establish their backyard fencing as far out as possible, even though it intrudes into their neighbours own territory. What is not clear is whether they are willing to sacrifice their blood and future because, even with all their superiority in numbers, a quick victory is not guaranteed. Most of their neighbours, with smaller militaries, are not willing to enter into any conflict even with the US forces but they will certainly act in unison when they are pushed because they have coordinated their forces with each other.

It is an almost PTSD response to US’s containment policy. As hard as it is to say. In China’s eyes, this policy is the difference between the battleground being Shenzhen or on some random Philippine islands. Big big differences.
Philippine further allows US base does not help with this idea at all. This basically mark Philippine as a definite target in case of war. This would be a hard geopolitical game to play from Philippine’s side. They have to act neutral while also not neutral. I doubt that the current Philippine governing body has the wisdom to navigate this dark water. It is most likely gonna be the battleground.

The Philippines keeps accusing China of “ bullying and intimidating smaller countries” without mentioning at all the Philippine occupation of and encroachment on China’s territory in Nansha Qundao. That is a real propaganda “trap”. On the issue of Ren’ai Jiao, it’s not the size, but the behavior of a country that determines who is right and who is wrong.
Right after the Philippines deliberately grounded its warship on Ren’ai Jiao in 1999, which seriously violated China’s sovereignty, China made démarches to the Philippines, and the Philippines promised to tow away the warship several times. A senior official of the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs made it clear that the Philippines had no intention of building any facility on Ren’ai Jiao and it doesn’t want to and will not be the first country to violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC). But 25 years on, not only hasn’t the Philippines fulfilled its promise to tow away the warship, it has even attempted to send construction materials for large-scale repair and reinforcement of the warship in order to build permanent structures on Ren’ai Jiao. The Philippines has gone back on its words, and stirred up trouble to provoke China. This is not only breach of the understandings between the two sides on handling the Ren’ai Jiao issue, but also a violation of the DOC, especially its Article 5 on refraining from action of inhabiting on the presently uninhabited islands, reefs, shoals, cays, and other features. The Philippines is clearly responsible for the current tensions in the South China Sea.
China and ASEAN countries have long been committed to properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation between states directly involved, and worked together to jointly maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea, which has kept the South China Sea generally stable. But for some time, the Philippines has been pulling non-regional actors into the South China Sea affairs to back Philippine provocations and violation of China’s sovereignty. The Philippines has been pursing selfish gains at the expense of the consensus reached by countries in the region. This is the main reason why the situation in the the South China Sea has escalated and become more complicated.
The Philippines need to respect the facts, observe the relevant understandings between the two sides and DOC provisions, follow the consensus reached between China and ASEAN countries, and return to the right track of properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation as soon as possible.

Okay, I'm going to comment here before Chinese bots overwhelm the comment section.
Let me put this into context... For a moment, I want you all to set aside all politics, and try to level with me here as a human that has a thinking brain up your head. Imagine yourself in the position of the Philippines, you're poor and got many economic and political problems already. Then almost out of nowhere, here comes a rising global power that for some reason seems intent to rob you of one of your key areas that you rely on for your energy, food security, and national security. Most investors won't invest in you because your electricity is more expensive than other counties in the same region, you could drill for oil and gas in your own sea but China won't allow you because of an imaginary 9-dash line that somehow means that your sea is not yours, and it's China's instead. And then there the issue of your fisherfolk, a lot of folks relies on fishing just to get by, then somehow starting these past decade, China start restricting and driving away your people from their traditional fishing grounds, where they have been fishing from for generations. You know China is much bigger, wealthier, and stronger than you. But you, as a sovereign country, with your own identity and rich history, also have a right to exist and prosper, just as China had. What do you do?
We made do with what we had. We got a mutual defense treaty with the US since 1951, long before Xi Jinping, long before China even set its sight to its "South Sea". We know that the US is the only one capable of checking China and ensure that it doesn't do anything too dangerously aggressively hostile. We pivoted to the west not because we wanted to, we did because China pushed us! We tried to deal with them bilaterally as they wanted but they kept bullying us and imposed unfair status quo on us. We're acting on for OUR national interests, not for the US's. That's the important thing that the media fails to emphasize enough, the Philippines is acting on its own agency, not the US's. This is about the Philippines and China! It just so happens that there is also a strategic competition between China and the US. Acting to defend our sovereignity and national interests is NOT being a puppet to the US!
USA wants Ph to fight China and become cannon fodder. You are clearly little overclever and trying to put blame on China not on daddy USA.
I loved this comment. Very well said.
@@JustCassually youtube deletes my comments when I expose your hypocrisy
I love your comments Mate ❤
the issue is the island in dispute exist long before PH as a country existed. Even ROC existed. Those island were returned to ROC after WW2.
I'm putting this here to help clarify the Philippines' position to others, even if this comment is very likely to get hidden, or flooded by Wumao/Makapili trolls, and bots, because the Philippines is worth it.
1. China is subject to the arbitral court ruling because it is a SIGNATORY to the UNCLOS, and did not exempt itself upon signing from compulsory arbitration on the topic of under which this issue falls, UNLIKE what it did for other topics covered by the UNCLOS.
2. That the PH is "making a fuss at the behest of the US all of a sudden" is complete nonsense. The Philippines kicked out the US bases in the 90's, after we peacefully revolted and kicked out a US-backed leader who had ruled for 20 years. Years later, while the PH was embroiled in fighting insurgents, and internal disputes, China rapidly seized and militarized islands and geographic features in the region. In response, we grounded a WW2 ship, we couldn't afford doing anything at the scale and sophistication China was doing unprovoked. Nonetheless, things cooled down and we had a peaceful, friendly, and productive relationship with China in the several years that followed. US military presence in the area was limited to anti-terrorism, but that was when the whole world was participating in the War on Terror. In 2013, while the PH was still fighting internal conflicts and had utterly neglected its navy, and the South China Sea issue was dormant, China, completely unprovoked, suddenly SEIZED a shoal that could have the capital metropolitan area within MISSILE range, leading to a ridiculous standoff where China outnumbered a lone warship dozens, if not hundreds to one. The US got the PH to try and back away at the same time as China, but China stealthily returned and coopted the island. The US, and other Asian countries tried to tell the PH to NOT bring the case to an international court, but we won and now Malaysia, and Vietnam want to replicate it. Obama called what we lost "a bunch of rocks" and were off focused in the Middle East. We had SIX YEARS of Duterte, who driven by adamant anti-American sentiment, and in part because of his strongman-populist style of politics, felt a keen sense of admiration and kinship with China, and Russia. He almost terminated the entire MDT and diplomatic relationship between PH and US, and wound down and even skipped the annual military exercises for one year. He limited Navy patrols to the Territorial Sea of the Philippines (12nm from shore), and left the entire EEZ (200nm from shore) almost unprotected. What did China do? They scammed Duterte by funding almost NONE of the infrastructure investment programs they pledged to, they SUNK some fishermen's boat and left them for dead (they had to be rescued by the Vietnamese Coast Guard) and Duterte and his Pro-China camp were DISCOURAGING these fishermen from speaking up, or taking legal action. China continued to militarize the area, they overfish in our waters, AND they poison corral reefs either in an attempt to reduce Filipino fishermen presence and make the area easier to annex, or to help in military reclamation and construction. Duterte only wised up and began procurement against China's maritime encroachment in the LAST TWO out of six years of his term, and even then to practically full exclusion of the USA. To this day, China's coast guard is composed of armed, military-operations-spec warships painted white rather than civilian search and rescue and law enforcement, accompanied by armed militias commissioned to loiter to passively assert Chinese claims, and to help in harassment of Filipino vessels. Marcos won the 2022 elections with a message that he would continue Duterte's appeasement policy, but upon visiting Beijing and meeting with Xi Jinping, he was met with the same pledges, WHICH DID NOT MATERIALIZE, and CONTINUED harassment and annexation and blockading by China. SO OF COURSE he rekindled the relationship with the US, why WOULDN'T any Filipino head of state do that given the circumstances???
3. The Philippines was building alliances and advocating its cause mostly to other democratic states for years before the US finally came around and realized how bad the situation was. We were advocating for this EVEN BEFORE the US cared, or paid attention, or began thinking to help us. We were building networks with Australia, Japan, etc. to create a bulwark of democratic states at risk of being dominated by China even without the US. So no, this isn't a unilateral initiative masterminded by Americans, it's cooperation by free Asian-Oceanian states who don't want to suffer Colonialism 2.0. Trust us, we know what it's like, and we can tell the difference between foreign states working with us, or using us.
4. I don't know why every time the US is brought up in the Philippines, international media brings such a massive spotlight on that group of protesters (the ones protesting US presence), when those are militant far-left protesters who are not credible, or popular, and generally scoffed at by the general public, and have protested just about everything the PH government has ever done, good, or bad, on EVERY issue since the Cold War. The statistics are RIGHT THERE to show how out of touch. The only time they get clout is when they lay exclusive claim to the entire discourse and advocacies that the general public sympathizes on, but always link it to leftist politics. The left in the Philippines perceive ANY interaction by the PH with any Western state as somehow an exact replication of CIA-backed Cold-War black operations, ironically painting the PH as having zero agency in the conduct of its own state affairs. They are disturbingly far more quiet against China's outright blockading, militarization, and annexing of our waters than rotational American presence on PHILIPPINE bases (I make ZERO excuse for American atrocities during the PH-US War, and Cold War manipulation, but these are different times, different dynamics, and different problems, something the far left in the PH are painfully loathe to even recognize). But make no mistake, the far left and the pro-China Duterte camps, although sharing certain ideological leanings, are bitterly against one another. If international media (or even domestic media) knew better, they would have focused on statistics, and the civic groups like Atin 'To since they are better gauges of true public sentiment, and efforts regarding the issue, representing a wider economic, geographic, and political spectrum of the PH in support of this issue. The far left always claim we should be able to defend ourselves by ourselves, but are the same guys who would say like our military deserves zero budget, make no mention of defense procurement, and never even think of domestic security manufacturing, and industry, and never mention building alliances, and networks with other democratic neighbors.
5. To counter the Chinese colonel's mentioning of the killing of Chinese, Taiwanese persons out at sea, if you look up Guang Da Xing No. 28 incident, or how our Coast Guard Commodore already answered the colonel in an international conference, the PH already CONVICTED and IMPRISONED the perpetrators, issued a FORMAL APOLOGY to Taiwan, and paid damages. The Philippines, for all its faults, is a responsible member of the international community, and we are a pioneer state with an outsized contribution to the development of international law despite our size, and military power relative to other giants.
6. The MDT is always active in the sense that it is a legal framework by which US, and the PH can continuously talk and coordinate as to how to make a coordinated response to any military threat. Given that the PH, and the US DON'T WANT A WAR, and we're trying not to get baited by China into firing the first shot, OF COURSE we don't run around treating the MDT like a magical WW3 button. We know it's a trap, and and if we fall for it our moral, political, and security gains from years of hard work can vanish in a flash. We Filipinos HATE war, and we're sick and tired of it, but we hate colonialism, and foreign invasion even more.
7. Chinese token military contributions to the PH are pathetically negligible, mostly not compatible with the rest of our logistical chain rendering them limited in usefulness, and more expensive, difficult to maintain, and none of which contribute to the greatest geopolitical, economic, and existential threat to out nation's future: China's annexation in the SCS.
8. The "West Philippine Sea" (Philippine term) is a technical term that refers to a SUBSET of the South China Sea (international name based on geography, NOT political entitlement of China) which falls within the Philippines' EEZ under UNCLOS. Unlike China, we do not claim an entire sea as our territory as if it were a lake, but rather part of it as our legal maritime entitlement.
Those are very good points that you raised. Have a good day.
你写的太长了，大部分也是一厢情愿。我只回复最后一条。首先中国人并没有对所有海域要求主权，所谓九段线（十一段线）只是历史声称，现阶段含义是对主权属于中国的岛礁的标记，在九段线内依然存在公海。而岛屿主权属于中国则具有客观历史证据，太平岛的驻军就可以当做一个证据。反倒菲律宾，历史条约们明确证明菲律宾不具有对于南沙岛屿的主权。中国人对于岛礁的主权同样使得中国人拥有南沙群岛周围的EEZ，所以菲律宾一直在声称的西菲律宾海完全是胡扯。南沙问题本质只是EEZ的重叠问题，这本来可以协商解决。但是菲律宾首先选择拒绝承认中国人的岛屿主权，并占领了包括中业岛在内的众多岛礁。所以中菲南沙争端的始作俑者完全是菲律宾。
内容很长，但是没有意义，中国作为一个主权国家，与殖民的菲律宾眯猴子讲道理是降低自己价值的行为，任何觊觎中国南海的国家将继续作为餐桌上的菜单，美国从没有真正帮助其它国家崛起，菲律宾人民将继续把菲佣发扬光大。
@@nnqi3475 "The Chinese sovereignty over the islands and reefs also allows the Chinese to own the EEZ around the Nansha Islands, so the West Philippine Sea that the Philippines has been claiming is complete nonsense."
This is false for many different reasons.
First of all, claims of sovereignty without permanent habitat is pretty much empty claim.
Second, by UNCLOS, reefs, shoals and artificial islands do not cause EEZ, so even if somehow world accepted China's claims of sovereignty over shoals that have never had permanent habitation, it wouldn't give China any EEZ in the area.
Third, i'm pretty sure nobody is ever going to accept China's claims of empty ocean with reefs, shoals and artificial islands and even less so considering the shoal in question is 1000km from China but within EEZ of Philippines
@@nnqi3475 No treaty ever gave any of these islands and geographical features to China, be it PRC or ROC, as even the Imperial Japanese did not relinquish control TO the ROC once it surrendered. Hainan is the limit of official territory historically claimed and controlled by China by their own maps. The historical claim is neither factually credible to the wider academe nor legally acceptable to a tribunal of international law. The Philippines has exercised jurisdiction over it as evidenced by official cartographical, and hydrographical of the exact islands and features as part of the archipelago for over a century. The Philippines did not start the escalation, as it is ridiculous to claim that mere DISAGREEMENT by itself is an act of aggression or escalation, as without such negotiation would not even be a thing. China is the one that MILITARIZED and SEIZED these islands and features FROM OTHER NEIGHBORING STATES, even when there is no military threat posed, or escalatory threats posed by its neighbors.
You only say what I wrote is "too long", and you'll only respond to the last part because the PRC has absolutely no credible, sensible, and justifiable claim to the area. To claim SCS is only 'partly' claimed by China is splitting hairs at this point - that it attempts to annex practically ALL of it as to be neck and neck with territorial sea (12nm) of each neighbor despite far exceeding Hainan's EEZ is in and of itself an act of blatant expansionist imperialism. "Wishful thinking" is when someone's distorted view of reality and cognitive dissonance leads it to have a position incongruent with reality, shown by how no one, not even China's 'allies' believe China's ridiculous claims for even a second. But what do we expect from an ideologically authoritarian, one-party state?
You guys are acting just like Imperial Japan of WW2, who both of our countries fought against.

Filipinos are not afraid of China and the world must remember that when the Philippines fought China for the first time, China was defeated. It was April 22-23, 1951 during the Battle of Yultong in the Korean War, a vastly outnumbered 900 Philippine Army batallion troopers (part of the UN forces) fought and defeated a 40,000 strong division of China’s People’s Liberation Army (fighting with the North Korean forces). The Chinese retreated after 500 of them were killed. Two dozen Filipinos died as heroes. China today must think twice before fighting again the vastly outnumbered but braver professional Filipino soldiers.

- the rest of it is the international water,
- no part of it belongs to China🇨🇳 or Taiwan🇹🇼.

- China won' t be a superpower forever that is 100% guaranteed
- Philippines won't be poor forever we will be an upper middle power country before the end of the decade
- As a Filipino we should keep pushing back at China while avoiding war that 2016 arbitral ruling stays when the level field becomes even maybe not in my lifetime but it will happen someday
1. at least who can be bigger than them but the U.S. If we, the U.S., continue to weaken, the latter might say
2. whether you Philippines continue to be poor or not, what does this have to do with others, you are talking here, why don't you develop yourself more?
3. please clarify the cause and effect, in fact, there is no contradiction at all.
For example, your neighbor built his house ten years ago, you started living nearby only two years ago, then this year you took over his lawn, then you say he took over your land?

Question? Will the USA intervene in the dispute/Confrontational clashes in the South China Sea (SCS), between the Republic of the Philippines and People's Republic of China, Beijing? The Govt policy is to observe Subdued Restraint and not to fire the first shot.
YES, the USA will automatically respond if any of the assets & citizens (Private or uniformed) is killed as a direct casualty of the clashes. Arguing further, the 194 member States of the United Nation (UN), had known the existence of the Mutual Defense Treaty (MDT) between the PH & US as an after effect of World War ll.

West Philippine Sea***************
No such sea
I understand why Philippines wants to claim the South China Sea islands. After all it’s very near the Philippines shores. But I have one question: since when the Philippines started to claim the islands? They were certainly not part of the Paris Treaty signed by Spain and the USA in 1898 which transferred the Philippines’ sovereignty from Spain to the USA, nor was it in the Mutual Defence Treaty of 1951 between the Philippines and the U.S. I have a Philippine map printed in the 1990s which indicates the western boundary lines clearly exclude any of these islands.
1900 Treaty of Washington is never mentioned because China realized it misinterpreted it. Also the US realized 2 years after 1898 that Spain nearly screwed them over an additional sets of islands and waters and wanted them too. Hence why that 1900 treaty was declared. Asides ,those CFMs clowns kept mentioning how the Philippines is territory is binded by 3 treaties and yet after I looked into it ...that 10 dash-line STILL illegally intersects into Philippine sovereignty and Malaysia's. So it's hypocritical. People have caught on.
It was part of the Treaty of WASHINGTON wc closely followed & ammended & corrected the territorial scope of the 1898 Treaty of Paris, to have included the pertinent islands of most of the Sratleys, etc.

Chinese coast guards are pirates in disguise,not even 1 country even their allies recognize their imagination 9 dash line lol
The 9-dash line merely demarcates the SCS islands claimed by China since 1945 after Japan surrendered the islands.
“Professor Robert Beckman, ISEAS July 2016:
“DISPUTES ON TERRITORIAL SOVEREIGNTY
The Philippines did not raise any issue with respect to which state had a superior claim to sovereignty over the islands in the South China Sea. This is because an Arbitral Tribunal established under UNCLOS can only consider disputes on the interpretation or application of UNCLOS, and UNCLOS contains no provisions on how to resolve sovereignty issues.
Therefore, the award of the tribunal does not address the underlying dispute in the South China Sea - the competing claims to sovereignty over the islands.
Further, although the tribunal found that China’s claim to historic rights in the 9 dash line is not compatible with UNCLOS, it did not rule that the nine-dash line per se is illegal or invalid. China is under no obligation to formally denounce the nine-dash line.
The nine-dash line is still relevant because it shows the location of the various islands in the South China Sea over which China claims sovereignty.”

My take on this.... China has been continually undermining the Philippines because the latter has to deal a lot of internal matter such as corruption. This corruption that has existed for decades and has lost a lot of money/resources that can be used instead for strengthening its military. Vietnam learned a lot from its own past conflict with China, the Philippines should learn from this.
The Treaty of Peace which Japan signed/with China at the city of San Francisco on 8 September 1951, Japan renounced all right, title, and claim to Taiwan (Formosa) and Penghu (the Pescadores) as well as the Spratly Islands and the Paracel Islands.
A Tomas Cloma in 1956 settled on the islands declared it "Freedomland", and requested to make the territory a protectorate of the Philippines. In July 1956, he apologised officially for his act and he surrendered the flag he stole to China's embassy in Manila. AN promised not to violate.
Why don't you mention china's own vaccine disinformation campaign against western vaccines? I get that it's standard practice for the ccp but its important to provide context nonetheless.
Singapore also experiences massive Chinese influences--be it offshoring loots from the mainland, trades and tourists so even historically opened, democratic Singapore media outlets like CNA has to dance around inconvenient truths. Here, the narrative makes it seems like it's a relative matter of whataboutism, that both China and the US--somehow caused tensions in throughout Asia--involving China and India, Japan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan, etc.
There are many in our country (over 10 million) who only took the Chinese vaccines and they are all still fine. No Covid, no cardiac dysfunction, no side effects. There are some friends who took the US vaccines and they are all sick sick sick of it. Some got severe covid, and some got it twice, even after 5 doses. I am not Chinese.

Excerpt from a USIP article - It is worth recalling that in 2012, the United States chose to persuade the Philippines to withdraw from Scarborough Shoal (a separate set of features north of the Spratlys) while making no effort to compel the PRC to do the same. In effect, Washington forced Manila to cede that set of features to the PRC.
At that time the US was really under the impression that the PRC would act benevolently.

They do not want conflict then for economic reasons i.e, trade
My view is that US will not intervene but will instead provoke and fuel any confrontations between China and Philippines. THis is how US operate in many proxy wars. It is up to the Philippines to be use by the US to be US pawn in its proxy war.
PH is not enough,Taiwan and Japan are more useful.the world second economy war with third and the first keeping power.
Check the history of US, Philippines, and Australia first before commenting. They are helping each other since world war 1 for 100+ years in dealing wars. PH being ally with US is never been a questioned, they are partners in wars for many years from World War 1, Sino-China war, Korean War, World War 2, Vietnam war. It's the longest ally of US in Asia and has trained each other for almost 50 years. US and PH partnership in wars is never a questioned. PH just don't want US to intervene. It's the PH don't want US to intervene and solve the issues in the South China Sea. Read clearly the news update in CRUX. PH rejected the help of US coz they don't want to escalate into bigger confontations. I always hear PH bein used by US, That's totally ignorant know the history of US and PH first to avoid being laughable. China realize the danger of being too agressive in West Philippine Sea. One mistake and China will go back to being poor just like 70 years ago where 4million chinese surrendered.
Even US admitted and called it the South China Sea and not West Philippines Sea. Clearly, something doesn't stack up. 😂
So chinese must leave the philippines territory immediately... thats easy.... so US Can't use PH Or japan..

The US is not ready to intervene. Neither does the US expect this to break out into open conflict. This leaves the ball with Narcis Jr. and how he wants to play ball.
War is the favorite word of US. US is always ready to have a war anytime anywhere. US goes to war every day around the world. China just doesn’t have gots to have a war. Their military has no experience with War. They just bully small countries in asia that don’t fight back…
A Filipino domestic helper was diagnosed with leprosy, a serious bacterial infection, shortly after her arrival, causing considerable anxiety for her employer and highlighting potential gaps in the health screening process for foreign workers.
The domestic helper, employed by a Hong Kong family through a local employment agency, started showing symptoms such as red spots and swelling in her limbs within weeks of starting her job. Her condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to her admission to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with leprosy on 14th June, 2024, believed to have been contracted in her home country, the Philippines.

I think that China and the US/Philippines might end up having at least one hot war, just to determine who this place belongs to. After all, the Americans and Filipinos believe that as long as the US military is backing them, they are invincible. This world operates on the principle of the strong eating the weak. The US can control the world, isn't it because they have more than 800 overseas military bases supporting them?😂😂😂
US is not as strong as past times. They are crumbling down inside. But they can't call back their bases outside US because they will loose face internationally

Japan, Taiwan and The Philippines must maintain strong bonds and work together to keep International laws and rights in the face of Chinese bullying.

The Philippines keeps accusing China of “ bullying and intimidating smaller countries” without mentioning at all the Philippine occupation of and encroachment on China’s territory in Nansha Qundao. That is a real propaganda “trap”. On the issue of Ren’ai Jiao, it’s not the size, but the behavior of a country that determines who is right and who is wrong.
Right after the Philippines deliberately grounded its warship on Ren’ai Jiao in 1999, which seriously violated China’s sovereignty, China made démarches to the Philippines, and the Philippines promised to tow away the warship several times. A senior official of the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs made it clear that the Philippines had no intention of building any facility on Ren’ai Jiao and it doesn’t want to and will not be the first country to violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC). But 25 years on, not only hasn’t the Philippines fulfilled its promise to tow away the warship, it has even attempted to send construction materials for large-scale repair and reinforcement of the warship in order to build permanent structures on Ren’ai Jiao. The Philippines has gone back on its words, and stirred up trouble to provoke China. This is not only breach of the understandings between the two sides on handling the Ren’ai Jiao issue, but also a violation of the DOC, especially its Article 5 on refraining from action of inhabiting on the presently uninhabited islands, reefs, shoals, cays, and other features. The Philippines is clearly responsible for the current tensions in the South China Sea.
China and ASEAN countries have long been committed to properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation between states directly involved, and worked together to jointly maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea, which has kept the South China Sea generally stable. But for some time, the Philippines has been pulling non-regional actors into the South China Sea affairs to back Philippine provocations and violation of China’s sovereignty. The Philippines has been pursing selfish gains at the expense of the consensus reached by countries in the region. This is the main reason why the situation in the the South China Sea has escalated and become more complicated.
The Philippines need to respect the facts, observe the relevant understandings between the two sides and DOC provisions, follow the consensus reached between China and ASEAN countries, and return to the right track of properly managing and resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation as soon as possible.

.WHY DID CHINA CCP ROB ITS PEOPLE OF MONEY AND CONSTRUCT TOFU DREG BUILDINGS?
Marcos Sr died & Marcos Junior (current Philippines president) takes over.
When US court asked Marcos Jr to appear in court, somebody helped Marcos to return to Philippines, without appearing in court. Hence, US court issued a contempt order of US$353 million.
how much is Marcos Senior's estate
In Oct 2012, a US Court of Appeals upheld the judgment against Marcos for violating an injunction that barred Marcos Jr to dissipate the assets of the estate. USA has frozen US$2 billion.
Bongbong follows US orders since he doesn't want to pay a $353 million US court fine and want access to billions of daddy Marcos's funds that are frozen in the US.
China been kind to philippines?since when 😂😂 this expert is a liar
Sino-Japanese Peace Treaty
Article 2
It is recognized under Treaty of Peace with Japan signed at San Francisco, Japan has renounced all right, title, and claim to Taiwan and penguin as well as Spartly Islands and Paracel Islands.
OBEY WW2 ORDER, OR DEFEAT CCP IF YOU WANT TO REWRITE IT.
NO?
PLA killed 100+ South Vietnam soldiers and retook Paracel Islands in 1974, PLA killed 100,000+ viet cong soldiers, militiamen, civilian with real cannon, PLA navy killed 64 viet cong soldiers and retook Johnson South Reef Spratly in 1988,
So today's CCP water cannon actions were justified, lawful, professional, restrained, and beyond reproach. With respect, Don't take and mistake CCP's restraint as weakness and provocation.
It seems China talks too much, gave Philippines too much respect.
@@conti-vl6tx What nonsense. I took a look at it and don't see representatives ROC or PRC signatures on that treaty. So your point's invalid. What? Are you saying it was because they weren't invited that it was unfair?

Is it possible that war breaks out because of a joint US/Philippine resupply mission to a Philippino vessel? I can almost gaurantee a US warship would have an overwhelming force presence which puts China in a corner. Then it's almost like an old fastest gun in the West showdown. Trigger fingers can get itchy.
Think again Mr. Whio you are. I think by now you know you are scared with a war with US FILIPINOS because ot the US for the reason you should have already used much more firepower if you think that we will not go to war with you.
Sobrang taas ng pride ng PCG at AFP ng Pilipinas kaya ayaw tangapin ang matagal ng inaalok na joint maritime patrol ng US at mga kaalyadong bansa , ang gusto kasi ng gobyerno may mamatay pang PCG coast guard personel bago mag envoke ng mutual depense treaty na napakaliwanag naman na any attact to the Philippine vesels and personel and aircrapt will be an act of war and therefore can be a valid reason to execute that mutual depense treaty.....
Bakit nag mamadali kaba sa gera? Baka pag nagka putukan ikaw unang tatakbo

People must understand that the International Arbitration Court is a private entity and is not an institution of the UN like the ICJ or the ICC. In a arbitration case, both or more parties involved agreed to bring and settle their problems in the IAC or other court of arbitration like in Singapore. If all parties are agreeable then the Court verdict is legally binding on all parties. Note that China didn't agree to arbitrate as apparently China is already aware this western run private institution verdict will not be in China favour. In short, the IAC verdict in favour of the Philippines is not binding. Taiwan even didn't accept the IAC verdict. Never be fooled by thinking that the IAC is an international institution because it's not.
It is fraud, china world indict those involved 😂
so... your point is?
@@chickentowel7036 the arbitration is a massive fraud, china is about to indicate those who had involved...赛定捞油等着吧！，到时候会制裁和全球通缉这些烂货。
@@ObservableUniverse888don't forget China is one of the signatories 😂
China are one of the members and signatories of the world rulings. Also, china invaded just 100 kilometer away in Philippines cost. What are they doing around Philippines costal perimeter. Clearly they are thousands away from their shores
Former Malaysian prime minister Mahathir said even though the US is not in the South China Sea, but the United States seems to like to provoke confrontation between nations to the point of they are going to war against each other, as happened between Ukraine and Russia. When there is a war, the US is a big arms dealer. They produce a lot of arms and they can sell their arms only when there is tension and war in any region. So when the speaker of the US [Nancy Pelosi] visited Taiwan, that was provocative. And since then Taiwan has got to improve its military capacity by buying weapons from America. So America has profited out of this visit.

Exactly. Look at any nation which was "helped" by American intervention . They were functional countries, until the US intervention turned them to rubble. Americans are a wolf in the sheep's clothing kind of friends and bring death and destruction to whatever they touch.
That is a gross oversimplification of local geopolitics. You basically justified bullying on the international stage as a "peaceful" resolution by not providing the means by the little guys to defend themselves. Put it more crudely, you are arguing for the violent offender "rights" to dictate your life by accusing those who teach the victims on how to defend themselves for provoking a fight and prolonging conflicts in which a quick resolution would have achieved if they didn't intervene because they stopped you from overrunning the place. This is the insidious argument au authoritarian regime. "Give up the fight, you would lose anyway, let us do what we want with you because you get to "live" by being subservient to us."
@JaeohnEspheras Former Philippines president Rodrigo Durtete say the Americans are the one pushing the Philippines government to go out there and find a quarrel and eventually maybe start a war. Durtete also said that he don't think that the Americans will die for us.

Mahatir was very anti china in his early term, then flip when china heavily investing there. So he has no cridibility
For a small country, the worst thing you could do is to take sides between two great powers, especially when you decide to side with the declining one. There’s a reason why the Philippines have fallen from one of the richest countries in Asia after wwII to THE exemplary failed nation in Asia. Ask any other ASEAN country.
your stupid we didn't take side china is occupying our territory so we seek help from other like minded nations your a liar like china🤬
WE HAVE KICKED OUT SPANISH, AMERICAN AND JAPANESE COLONIZERS BEFORE, CHINA THE THIEF IS NO EXCEPTION FOR THE SMALL COUNTRY LIKE THE PHILIPPINES.
46:55 😅😅😅. And please do a survey, not even one Filipino will side with the evil pirate greedy communist China
How can one side with anyone who deprives your sons their source of livelihood?Filipino fisherfolks have become impoverished because of Xi Jin Ping. But Mao, Chou En Lai etc. were more considerate.
