. But i guess we dont have any other options than to befriend all the claimants, and focus on diplomacy rather than approaching it militarily. The RP government really sucks!


The only option and the best one to do is to improve our military weapons system..

We cannot befriend those claimants because they too have their own interest in Spratly Area..

Such diplomatic approach by Philippine goverment will never be respected as long those claimant countries are interestred in having a big part or whole of Spratley area, besides knowing by our neighbors that our Military is pathetically weak..

The only diplomatic approach we can ensure that will be respected by other claimant of Spratley is for the Philippines to enhanced the capability of its Armed Forces particularly the Air Force and Navy sending the message we have enough means to protect our territorial water and airspace..

Warning:
In the past few days a number of Vietnamese websites have been hacked including one connected with the foreign ministry, with information in Chinese and images of the Chinese flag left behind, Nga said.

Looks like Chinese hackers are on Cyber War against Vietnam and US.... Tayo ba meron bang mga Pinoy hackers capable of hacking Cyber Chinese Military communications? Kung meron then its an advantage for us kasi its possible we can control their Missile controls at target natin ang kanilang base.

Sounds like dun sa Movies like Artificial Intelligence...

We have.

We are still far yet to the stage were our home-grown hackers could hack into secured command center programs to take control of missile target acquisitions. Remember Onel D.G?

'Phl must assert territorial rights with firmness'

'Phl must assert territorial rights with firmness'
By Aurea Calica and Pia Lee-Brago (The Philippine Star) Updated June 10, 2011 12:00 AM Comments (122) 

MANILA, Philippines - Malacañang said yesterday that it is committed to a multilateral approach to resolving claims in the Spratly island group but maintained the Philippines’ right to assert sovereignty over its territorial waters in the face of China’s declaration that it owns the whole South China Sea.

Presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda also said the Philippines will continue to conduct oil explorations in western Palawan, which is not among the disputed territories in the South China Sea.

“The foundation for a lasting resolution of issues is the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea. The government of the People’s Republic of China has publicly committed to a peaceful resolution of claims, and that it shares the desire of countries like the Philippines for stability in our region,” Lacierda said.

“The Philippines believes that its territorial rights must be asserted with firmness, its position reiterated at every appropriate opportunity, and in a manner befitting a free, sovereign nation that is committed to being a reliable member of the community of nations and the international covenants that govern maritime law, and the settlement of disputes,” he added.

“With respect to the non-disputed areas, we have every reason to do the exploration there because they’re ours. There should be no issue as to our sovereign right to explore our own natural resources,” Lacierda said.

He also said it would be up to the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Department of Energy to talk about joint exploration in the disputed areas.

“I think there are already discussions on that. I am not fully aware of the developments in that regard. But I’m sure steps have been taken toward resolving this peacefully. But, again, we could confer with the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) and the Department of Energy with respect to this, only with respect to the disputed areas - let me clarify that,” Lacierda said.

Chinese officials have accused the Philippines of spreading a “bad rumor” that their vessels have been intruding into the disputed areas in the Spratlys and scolded Manila for alleged irresponsible statements.  -more
