The port may also station at least one missile boat and you have an instant shore based missile defence system. It may also station small transport crafts that could be used in commando operations against PLA air and naval bases in the area.

So constructing a port and repairing the existing airfield of which benefits a sizeable civilian population is considered "aggressive". While setting up SAM batteries and radar stations by China of which benefits their military is acceptable? Oh boy, I'm beginning to like your new friends and the relationship which has blossomed from it. |

Philippines moves troops, supplies to disputed S. China Sea island claimed by Beijing 11 May, 2017 The Philippines has begun moving troops and equipment to a disputed island in the South China Sea which is claimed by both Manila and Beijing, a Philippines general said. It comes ahead of construction, including lengthening an airstrip on the island. The troops and initial supplies arrived at Pag-asa Island last week, Lt. Gen. Raul del Rosario, head of the Philippine military's Western Command, said as quoted by AP. Some 1.6 billion pesos (US$32 million) has been set aside for construction on the island, which will include reinforcing and lengthening and airstrip and building dock, according to the official. Solar power, a desalination plant and refurbishment of military housing, as well as sites for marine research and tourists, are set to be built on the island.

If Mang Kanor actually upgrades Pag-asa, that's a plus for him, and a win for the Philippines, but it's still a big "IF". For the moment though, PH must stop the public announcements and just build up what they can. Wouldn't have to "militarize" the island with hard hitting anti-ship or anti-air weapons (as if we have one), but the troops need some token "hardware" for protection. Manpads should be the minimum for anti-air, hopefully a pair of Tucanos and a pair of missile firing MPACs. |

- Puerto Princesa City-based Western Command (Wescom) commander Lt. Gen. Raul del Rosario said units involved in the projects have left the Palawan mainland for their journey to Pag-Asa. - Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana said the administration has allotted P1.6 billion for the development of all nine military outposts in the Kalayaan Island Group (KIG). - Personnel along with some construction materials have already moved. They moved last week but they have to wait for more construction materials. But he could not say yet when the actual spadework would begin. - Building a beaching ramp requires dredging a shallow portion of the shoreline. At present, cargo or supplies for the island are unloaded from ships and ferried on small boats to the shore some 500 meters away. The procedure takes days or even weeks to complete. |
