its best to continue letting this traitors talk and write their submissive articles for 2 reasons: 1.) we have a democracy 2.) when the war starts, we will have a mountain of evidence to arrest these traitors. |

Traitors? It's an article by the New York Times. Can't charge a foreigner for treason. Besides, the author obviously lays almost all the blame on China for starting the trouble. Hence the term "mischief making." As for the joint exploration - that is another matter... It's an american (foreign) perspective and most of them would rather have a peaceful resolution over a shooting conflict. That should be expected as their national interests' are naturally different than yours. |

PHL lags in infra dev't over disputed West Philippine Sea MARC JAYSON CAYABYAB GMA News August 27, 2013 "All claimants, except the Philippines, has engaged in infrastructure development in the South China Sea (West Philippine Sea)," Professor Rommel Banlaoi, head of think tank Philippine Institute for Peace, Violence and Terrorism Research's Center for Intelligence and National Security Studies, So far, Vietnam has built the most number of structures in the disputed waters at 21, followed by the Philippines with nine, China with seven, Malaysia with five, and Taiwan with one. In terms of quality, however, the buildings erected by the Philippines in the islands within its territorial waters have now "deteriorated" and can best be described as "modest" compared with what other claimant-nations have built in the disputed area, Banlaoi noted. "From the latest photographic evidence, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Vietnam have invested their resources to erect solid and more stable structures in their occupied areas. The Philippine structures in its nine-occupied territories remain modest and in the dismal stage of rapid deterioration," he noted. "China's occupied areas are all reefs but with solid and... cemented structures," Banlaoi said. In contrast to the sprawling runways and three-story buildings of other countries, the Philippine version is a dirt runway with grass, decrepit maritime bases, and rusty naval vessels. In Pag-asa island, the runway was overgrown with grass that goats were grazing right on the runway. Because of the lack of development, Banlaoi said at the least the Philippines gained the reputation as being the "most environmentally friendly in the South China Sea."

Philippines given until March next year for submissions against China's nine-dash line claim Veronica C. Uy InterAksyon.com August 28, 2013 2:59 PM The Arbitral Tribunal in The Hague has given the Philippine government until March 30, 2014 to make all its submissions on the case it brought against China for the latter’s nine-dash-line claim over vast waters in the South China Sea, it was learned Wednesday. In its first procedural order dated August 27, 2013, the tribunal also instructed the Philippines “to fully address all issues, including matters relating to the jurisdiction of the Arbitral Tribunal, the admissibility of the Philippines’ claim, as well as the merits of the dispute.” The order set the initial timetable for the arbitration and adopted its own Rules of Procedure. "The Arbitral Tribunal will determine the further course of the proceedings, including the need for and scheduling of any other written submissions and hearings, at an appropriate later stage, after seeking the views of the Parties," it said. "In the first Procedural Order, the Arbitral Tribunal formally adopts the Rules of Procedure and fixes 30 March 2014 as the date on which the Philippines should submit its Memorial," the order said. The Rules of Procedure The Rules of Procedure, which supplement those contained in Annex VII to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), set out the procedures on communications, language, publicity, organization of hearings, consideration of objections to the body’s jurisdiction, requests for provisional measures, and the appointment of experts to assist the Arbitral Tribunal. The Rules of Procedure that the Permanent Court of Arbitration will serve as the registry in the proceedings. Full Article Here[ Edited by Hong Nam, Aug 28 2013, 04:07 PM.

Sounds like it'll be a loooong legal process... can't blame the Tribunal as this case is very sensitive... |
