US Troubled by Ayungin Shoal Incident http://globalnation.inquirer.net/100211/us-troubled-by-ayungin-shoal-incident By Tarra Quismundo Philippine Daily Inquirer 2:01 pm | Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 MANILA:The United States expressed concern Wednesday over the provocative expulsion of Philippine vessels on a resupply mission at the Ayungin (Second Thomas) Shoal on Sunday, as it again called for respect for international law in the disputed waters.In comments sent to the Inquirer, Brian Goldbeck, charge daffaires at the US Embassy in Manila, said claimants in the South China Sea should observe the status quo as the parties pursue efforts to resolve what has been Asia-Pacifics most contentious flashpoint.We are troubled by reports that Chinas Coast Guard blocked efforts by two Philippine vessels to re-supply the Philippine outpost at Second Thomas Shoal. This is a provocative move that raises tensions, Goldbeck said in an e-mailed statement.Pending resolution of competing claims in the South China Sea, there should be no interference with the efforts of claimants to maintain the status quo, he said. |

Expect China to drive away Filipinos again from West PH Sea as arbitration begins By Matikas Santos INQUIRER.net Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 MANILA, Philippines - After being driven away twice from maritime features within the Philippines own waters, China will likely restrict the movement of Filipinos in the West Philippine Sea (WPS) more as the arbitration case before the United Nations (UN) slowly gains traction. "We can expect same, if not higher, levels of restrictions from here on, especially during pendency of arbitration. They’re not afraid of sanctions, because they don't believe any will come as long as they don't overtly use force. Since China is member of the UN Security Council (SC), we can't get anything from there. [Philippines] can make an effort, but ultimately UNSC will do nothing more than talk, if at all. China does not believe anyone, even the UN, should be involved in this." - Jay Batongbacal, director UP Institute for Maritime Affairs and Law of the Sea Inquirer |

Navy boats or PCG boats should deliver supplies to our Marines instead of the Civilian boats, considering it is part of the military ops of the AFP... |

I think it's much better 2 civilian vessels deployed w/ six Marines heavily armed with (2) 50 cal MG's + RPGs on each boats while escorted by PCG. "Para in case they try to shoot us, eh lamang tayo." Their white ships are much bigger than ours and are all heavily armed, like a warship disguised as CMS white. To be honest, since PH Marines are deployed or stationed in Ayungin Shoal then PM, PN has all the rights to go back and forth as they wish, even without worrying about what Sec. Gazmin said on White to white or Gray to gray, like they can use the BRP Tagbanua escorted by PN ship to resupply PMs in Ayungin... Edited by Andres Boning, Mar 13 2014, 02:18 AM.

The next re-supply should also have a TV crew with live satellite feed, just to make sure the world will have a record of what is happening other than words of protest.

since they are employing their coast guard what we need to do is strengthen our coast guard as well, since the Hamiltons are USCG cutters they should have been provided to the PCG instead, since wala rin naman itong mga missiles mas ideal sya sa coast guard, they can be deployed to both Ayungin and the Scarborough Shoal without escalating the situation so we're not sending the navy we are just matching them. the Hamiltons can match with the biggest msa ships out there.. our planners should have anticipated this |
