Clash in the South China Sea: Philippines Strengthening Itself Against China | #Operation2027 S2E3

Despite Hague Tribunal’s ruling invalidating China’s “9-dash line” territorial claim, the CCP government continues to encroach upon the sovereignty of neighboring countries in the South China Sea, with the Philippines being at the forefront of maritime incursions. Filipino fishers have experienced the direct impact of the political clash, with their livelihood threatened by the increasingly aggressive actions of Chinese Coast Guard. In addition to economic harm, the Philippines and its allies face strategic threat as China aims to take control of Bashi Channel, a choke point containing Chinese expansionism beyond the First Island Chain. How is the Philippines responding to these challenges and what are the geopolitical stakes on the table? Learn more about this pressing matter on this episode of Operation 2027.

Philippines is very important, we love them and need them, please help them go far away from China, I think Taiwan and Philippines need to work together for this

[allisterafros.batica]

Very nice presentation! Yes, no choice for the Phils.🇵🇭 but to "get stronger" militarily. To boost the economy, corruption in govt should be reduced at bay. Our people should unite against this external threat!💪🇵🇭

[Leony-fftc]

Taiwan, Guam and Palau are island nations that are inside the Philippine Sea, but unlike China, we dont claim this island nation as our own just because they are located in the Philippine sea. China should learn to respect its neighbors

Conflict in the West Philippine Sea will impact the whole region and even the world.
ASEAN countries can not ignore this and has to be proactive in pushing for the code of conducts in the SCS to start. 90% of Filipinos are against China's CCP actions in the West Philippine Sea. This dispute is resulting in more budget to increase Philippines defensive capabilities and Filipinos are hoping that the country can produce more weapons to counter China's military strength. Manufacturing missiles and drones are priority in the country's defense and offensive capabilities.

If China do WAR to Taiwan? Philippines will HELP Taiwan for SURE in another way as long you need. We appreciated that we have 150k Pilipino workers in your Country treated well.

I am a Fil-Am living in the US for years but I make it a point to visit the Phil as often as I can. I may have been based here in the US for a long time now but my heart is still with the Phil and I keep myself updated with everything going on in my country of birth. I just accidentally saw your channel and I got interested in what I would learn from you and I found your presentation and analysis of the events going on between China and the Phil are very objective.

The Arbitral Ruling won by the Philippines helped the Philippines about its legal claimed and made lots of Supports internationally.

[dreamboy]

The main problems in the Philippines is curruption so that's why the arm forces of the Philippines are very weak. .😢

[tenavrisen]

If the Philippines gets stronger, Taiwan gets safer. Both should work together.

[clarkwayne]

The arbitral ruling helps. It positions the Philippines claim to it EEZ and nullifies China's claim. It proves that China's claim has no basis and that they are illegally occupying Philippines territory as well as conducting criminal activity by poaching marines life and prohibiting the Pilipino fishermen.

[danilomanuntag]

China's nine-dash line claim was invalidated by the UNCLOS arbitral court ruling. China is illegally asserting sovereignty in Philippines Exclusive Economic Zone.

The Philippines sees China's creeping aggressive claims on the South China sea, Spratleys, West Philippine Sea, Taiwan, Senkaku islands, Tibet, Bhutan, Aksai Chin, and Arunachal Pradesh a big threat to peace and security in the region.

The Philippines with US, and other like-minded nations, together should conduct joint patrols in the South China sea, and Philippines EEZ to uphold the rule of law and freedom of navigation.

The Philippines with the US, Japan, and other allies may be dragged to face China head-on, if conflict breaks in Taiwan. The Philippines is strengthening defense capability, procuring what it can soonest: more ships, F-16 fighter jets, Brahmos missiles, more long range anti-ship missiles, anti- ship drones, HIMARS, radar systems, submarines, and other military assets

Facing threat of China's big navy, a multitude of militia vessels, hypersonic missiles and artificial islands military bases China built on Johnson reef, Fiery Cross reef, Subi reef, and Mischief reef, the US, should deploy on Philippine sites, long range hypersonic missiles, more Typhon missile systems, with tomahawk missiles crucial to Philippines' defense and deter China's expansionism.

[pkstmbq]

The Philippines, like it or not will help Taiwan in its battle with mainland china, with the US, Japan and other allies will defend Taiwan against the China PLA.

[drumsy]

Talking about china's military is a bullcrap!"
And it cannot afford to go in war when china is lacking some good quality rather quantity.
On June 26, a coup attempt in Bolivia failed spectacularly in just three hours because a Chinese-made armored vehicle broke down.
A group of rebels, equipped with dozens of Tiger armored vehicles, charged towards the presidential palace. But not long after they set off, the second vehicle got stuck on a curb.

If the Filipino fishermen are given the chance to retaliate, as long as they dont use guns, they can use unconventional weapons.. the Phils has a long history of riots, deterence and untactical weaponry.. 😅😅😅 its just a matter of waiting of order from the govt take the lead to retaliate.😅

[GraycorePH]

China should reflect to what happened to RUSSIA right now. If they want to take Taiwan or taking ownership in our WPS China should think twice.

[darwindiaz]

It is West Philippine Seas because china illegaly intering in the Philippines Exclusive Economic Zone or EEZ.

[Queen_Alice]

Let's all further help the Chinese out by reducing any MADE-IN-CHINA Purchases whenever humanly possible.

And here's more. Their reporting in their country is even wrong. They say that the Philippines is the aggressive one and that it rammed their ships. The news is incorrect.

[benedictocantero-qnhp]
