Very Happy we got the win... hope all the other countries will follow suit with their claims against China.

[MR_BIG18]

Today, CHINA-bank issued a verdict on our complaint against them, after months of talking to BSP and chinabank, kakatuwa, sabay na sabay

[anonemus]

Statement by a real Ambassador, Del Rosario

[anonemus]

Face of a traitor before and after the decision

[anonemus]

PNoy's statement

Salute to all names mentioned here. Mabuhay!

Yasay should be kicked out of the DFA.

Walang ka kuwenta ang DFA press conference. Left many people wondering "WTF!!!"

Now what?

Are we sending paratroopers and amphibious troops to reclaim the islands?

Maybe we should apologize then?

It's so frustrating that some Filipinos (including the highest official) trivialize efforts to claim what is rightfully ours. Instead of figuring out ways on how to further our claims, they instead offer reasons on why those who are eager not do it.

Should we go to war then? Definitely not! On the first place, President Duterte is the first one to mention about war. This is a perfect example of a "straw man argument".

its probably because ayaw nila i provoke ang china when the decision was handed out. too much fanfare might affect the safety of Pinoys there, or might result in military 'moves' from CH, w/c would of course be disadvantageous saten.

Hinihintay na lang natin kung kelan mag jet ski si PGong dahil sya mismo ang mag reclaim ng island.

Not the philippines

US, japan, india, australia navies will navigate south china sea because the tribunal decision affirms that most of that body of water is international water and not entirely chinese

China released condemnation na, and allegations of corruption among the judges sa Hague. Also asserting they have the right to setup air defense zone, i think meaning lahat ng dadaan jan should seek/follow their protocol, not entirely sure.

this 'kinda' validates yasay's muted response sa ruling. We all know public, official decisions, statements against the chinese will definitely anger them, and will escalate tensions even further. When you think napaka bully na nila, may i-le-level up pa pala ung pagiging bully nila, even the Chinese ambassador to the US making statements, definitely shots fired sa biggest ally naten.

It was a victory for Pinas, but I read and agree that it was a defeat for Int'l law, because walang enforcement. there are now only 2 ways to deal, war or direct negotiations.

I think we should hope for back channel negotiations to go well or 'mahiya' si China, being #2 biggest economy, that they will lose the support/popularity of other nations especially the powers, pag naging confrontational pa sila lalo. Well f#ck. gudlak LOL.

Educate me, anyone know what's China's reason or proof that they own the WPS? Just read on the news na nag rally sila sa american Restaurant na KFC sa China. I was under the impression that the bully is only the Chinese government, pero it seems that even the people believe that they own our backyard.

Ano paliwanag nila? What are they telling their citizens to convince them that they own our backyard?

i read somewhere that the Chinese people were taught that the WPS was theirs, right when they were still kids, so they grow up with the notion that it's really theirs -- nothing quite like propaganda eh?. Plus, it's not in their best interest to say or think otherwise -- baka ipakulong pa sila for libel or some b.s. charge, plus sipsep pa sa government.


And you never know, the guy who organized the "protests" could be G-men in plainclothes, stirring the pot to make it seem like there's real ground level support when the typical Chinese is too preoccupied trying to make a living because their government is scr*wing up.

Yes, this is also what I heard. The reason I'm asking is because I just got into a small debate in fb with a Chinese about the issue. His logic is all over the place and he didn't even know that historical claim as the stand of his country.

Interesting that the Chinese chose to vent their anger on iPhones and KFC outlets; i would've expected protests at the PH embassy, the Oishi factory(flying the PH flag), etc.

Expected ko na ito, sa mga news kasi dito sa china ay US daw ang behind our protest sa hague, and nanalo daw tayo kasi bcoz na influence daw ng US ang mga judges sa Hague.
