I would have preferred her more than "El tabako" it should have been much better maybe.... least she's got balls than to be under an impotent General's watch, who most of us were expecting to provide huge changes for the AFP, and yet he did... He maybe introduced (SPDP) Self PABAON Development Program.

Madame "Ingram" should have been President back then 1992 just too bad "Nabawasan siya" :dunno: Should have been a good fresh start after Cory's Government. :armyroleyes:

Face it people, even if we are fully modernized, with submarines (which are in the pipeline) and even air superiority fighters, we can't keep up with China's numbers. But I'm confident that China can't occupy us; it's too costly and they'll probably get a lot of casualties from all the militias that'll spring up. And, nuclear submarines are not gonna work. However, there are lots of diesel electrics anyway. I don't mean to offend anyone, but you guys should learn a bit from timawa. Their rules are a bit stricter on providing false and unsupported statements. I'm sorry if I did anything wrong. I will accept any action taken against me. :salute:

Even though sometimes it's a headache with regards to posters providing false and unsupported statements, here in PDFF Posters have a little bit of Freedom to express themselves, of course still under Moderation but not like "Martial Law" in Timawa sometimes... :dunno: It's more "For Official Use Only" in Timawa lots of technical discussions that some ordinary people who don't have knowledge to these kind of things find it hard to relate compared to here.
They are both very good Defense sites and I do think one of them can't function well without the other, "It takes two to tanggo!" :armygrin:

OMG! :wow: WHAT NOW? It's just like saying the moment we try to built any structures in REED Bank area, there's a possibility that they'll blow it up using Missiles!

We shouldn't give in to this! and the Mischief Reef incident should be the last incursion incident, no matter what.... We shouldn't rely on just UN protest alone, we must show them that we will protect our interests at all costs!

I believe, Maybe China's "Trust Building" in South East Asia visiting Indonesia and Malaysia is like giving them heads-up of what can happen in the years to come, Indonesia on the other hand may not get tempted of any idea going against us, but Malaysia is China's BI___H! China's Defence Minister will arrive in the Philippines this Saturday as part of the "Trust building" Bwisit, I bet this guy is going to lay their cards on us and will offer a lot of open options to bribe us not to push through with the Reed Bank Oil Explorations and give a Final Word of "or ELSE FACE THE CONSEQUENCES."

They know that we don't have anything to put up with their MiGs....:headbang:

Philippine Navy denies involvement

HANOI, Vietnam - Two Vietnamese fishermen were shot and wounded in disputed South China Sea waters, a police chief said Thursday, citing the victims' relatives.

The incident happened last Saturday in the Spratly archipelago, said Tieu Viet Thanh, police chief of Binh Chau commune in coastal Quang Ngai province.

They were actually MIG-29's according to intel reports.

In my opinion, though I don't really like this idea, but the quickest way to solve this issue really is to ask the US if we have the money to lease (2) Squadrons of F-16s and F-18s from the US on a "Lease to own terms".

If they can help "TAIWAN" in terms of selling them Military Equipments, the more they can do the same to the Philippines. Let's face it if "all H_LL breaks loose" before they do something to help us, it will need approval from the US Congress and will take time, days and by the time the help arrives it will be too late.... :armycry:

Just saying we need to have something to protect ourselves.

What more can happen if their Aircraft Carrier is deployed in South China Sea?

Su-27, 30s intruding our Airspace! :headbang:

Those base structures they have in Mischief reef are definitely a Command Center that's monitoring movements of our Base in Palawan and all areas nearby including Reed Bank, that's why they are always there right away! Those MiG-29s have Xian H-6 refueling tanker nearby for sure...

Just don't know how many Nautical miles from China to KIG or Reed Bank??

^ We badly need any help that we can get, and we need it fast. We can't just turn a blind eye on this situation as they will keep on doing this over and over again.
