I disagree that a war with the Philippines can be controlled and scalable. Remember that a war brings in all the unexpected and uncontrollable events and war will bring in the US to the conflict and the outcome is not as predictable as some experts claim.
I'm happy to have been purged from the military. I know for sure we will lose the war , so it's better I get out early, rather than be blamed for the loss
@@ChiyoTachiright, Lei should connect with Chris Chappell from CU with 2M subscribers and David Zhang. While her subscribers are small easier for the CCP to control.
China is too far in the philippines it takes 7 days by ship to reach philippines and this island that china occupied are within 200 nauticals exclusve economic zone it was inside philippine territory , Philippines don't like war we filipinos are very patient and we respect chinese people but if they start the war no choice but to defend our territory , US philippines 1951mutual defense treaty ,the treaty requires both nation to support each other if another party attacks the philippines or the US .
Good day madam Lei. I am a Filipino to start with madam. China should abide with the international law, specifically with the UNCLOS. If China continue this aggressive and unlawful moves in the West Philippines sea and the rest of south china sea, I do believe it will lead to a war. China is a great nation, this is a wrong way of showing their greatness. China should stop making false accusations to the Philippines. Thank you.
you can be brave, but what do you plan to fight with? Sticks? Philippines needs high tech weapons other than BrahMos. Lots of them to make a dent to Chinese Navy.
Stop the non sense. China is getting the resources it wants, just a matter of cost. China does not care to start a war. All you Filipinos are being worked into a frenzy once again because of US propaganda.
Ms Lei, give us 3 years, we will goin to reclaim what china illegally occupy inside the west philippine sea whether by diplomacy if not by FORCE if china will not cooperate Phil government demands.... Upgrading and modernizing our armed forces is fast moving to level PLA , recruitment continue upon thousands, millions volunteer even me as reserved officer join to fight chinese intruders, We are peace loving filipino citizen but dont mess with us !
I have a Chinese blood in me and I'm roud of it, I love the chinese poeple but not their leaders, their leaders are leading its people to death for their own stomachs, hope the people rise up against tyrany! Against dictatorships but pro people leadership. Be peace loving don't destroy the world it the one we've got!
We don't need 3 years! Right now we can stop these,if the leadership try to understand what EEZ means ang respect for our territirial rights problem solved, no blood shed!
Hey Jude. What do you think, China will wait us to become strong before they strike? Of course, they will build military advances and surround us before we become military capable or even before our big brother come and reposition their missile systems toward China. The issue of WPS is only the tip of the iceberg. The true issue is the plan of China to re-take Taiwan and we're just being agitated by western influencers that China is slowly invading us. If ever, we could be the most destructed region if we let these two superpowers to make our waters and sky their battlefields. Think hard, brother.
I'm a US citizen living in the Philippines. I watched your entire presentation with so much interest. Thank you for talking about this subject. Many in the corporate media ignore the possibility of an armed conflict erupting between China and Southeast Asian nations, particularly the Philippines. Here's my two cents: To those watching the Philippines from the outside, the Philippines may seem to be a chaotic place full of unsophisticated people. Even its political leadership and the military appear to underestimate the real possibility of China starting a war with the Philippines. I think it's because most Filipinos believe that the Mutual Defense Treaty between the US and the Philippines is the single biggest deterrent that stops China from attacking the Philippines. Well, it might be true, but the Philippines has never invoked the treaty because it has no need for it... until powerful China's growing fear that its economic model is failing, and the possibility that the CCP may soon find itself it has no longer the ability to feed millions of its people because of China's dwindling resources. However, to your point that China's real target is the unification of Taiwan and China, and not the Philippines - might be true, but it will be the mother of all mistakes for the PLA to "train its troops" by waging war against the Philippines. While the Philippine military is smaller in numbers compared to the PLA, I hope the Chinese military leadership should consider that the troops of the Philippine military are heavy in warfighting experience. It should not forget😮 that the Philippine military has started modernizing its equipment and war-fighting capabilities. The Chinese are very sensitive to maintaining its image internationally. So I dont think it will be in its best interests to start a war and then end it when they realize that they have made a big mistake
Are you blind?...our government cannot even provide water cannon to PCG then you want us to engage in a full scale war?We dont trust that MDT you are talking about ...look at Israel it has an MDT also with the US but how come they let Iran to attack Israel?
Why does China need to test U.S resolve in defending Taiwan? If it wants Taiwan, then China must grow some balls and take that chance. Otherwise the general worldwide perception that China is a paper tiger will remain well entrenched. These " preparations " or " dress rehearsals " don't make sense. China all four carriers risk getting decimated in a matter of minutes whether they are in the vicinity of the confrontation with Philippines or not.
We are all strangers above the Earth and Death decree don't cares to anyone whether we live Ten, Fifty or a Hundred years old. We must remember Our Heroes who fight against the Enemies for the Freedom of Our Beloved Motherland Republic of the Philippines (Maharlika) . We Filipinos are born being a Great warrior with a Braveheart and Never Retreat nor Surrender. " Lupang Hinirang ".
*The international law* is very clear on the South China Sea: - parts of it belong to some ASEAN countries including the Philippines 🇵🇭, - the rest of it is the international water, - no part of it belongs to China🇨🇳 or Taiwan🇹🇼.
@@kenbehrens5778 Already a settled issue if the World court had any meaning. It has no divisions, so it's not settled until someone backs down. I doubt that will be the PI. Nor will it be the US.
Exactly! China needs to accept and respect the international law. Instead of being the Bulliest of all bullies. Your historical claims has no basis. Xi jinping a stupid dictator has no place on this planet
@kenbehrens5778 That's because China makes up their on Rules and laws. The CCP' mandate is to spread brainwashed naritives around the world to promote their own interests. China Bully!
Philippines doesn't have the warships and firepower needed to take on China.Brave words for a Filipino but unless you have the naval power back it up pipe down. The US doesn't want to fight other countries battles that decide to leave the US as a colony.
China can't defeat the Philippines by land for many centuries since the arrival of Spanish 1521 it has experience many wars , Philippines is land of warriors.
Wow... China should look for their citizens who are now in need of help. But instead, mouthing about war with the Philippines. They cannot do a thing because the Philippines is becoming stronger with itself and with its allies. The first bullet will not come from the Philippines, but when it comes to worse, the Filipino people and its military allies are ready. Again, it will just come to another century of shame for China.
Is it a bullet or a hypersonic missile? This will be cyber war, no brave warrior needed. Just a bunch of high-tech guys who by the tip of a finger, will let loose hundred to thousand missiles and drones to intercept each other. How many 'iron domes' like in IDF do you think the US can provide to protect the Filipino people? It's up to how much the US senate''s budget will allow. So, goodluck, Philippines.
If what the lady is saying is true, the usa probably won't come to aid the philippines in the scs/wps which is a distraction from the real dispute that is taiwan.
PLA as People's Liberation Army and CCP as China Communist Party? Hinay-hinay lang. Me kasabihan nga, "madaling sumabak sa gulo pero mahirap makaalis sa gulo" Baka akala nyo basagan lang ng mukha ang giyerang ito, manood ka sa youtube sa nangyayaring gulo sa pagitan ng Palestino at Israeli. Missile at drone na ang bida ngayon, laos na tangke, armalite or kahit warplanes. Isang missile lang, kahit magtago ka pa sa saya ng lola mo, pag sumabog kahit sa tabi mo lang, tyak di ka na makikilala. Daanin natin sa diplomasya.

@@darkboard5556 The USA will eventually use the Philippines as their military asset. This is the best strategic location to make the war nearer to China. Taiwan is simply above the Philippines. But unlike in Vietnam war where the military base in Subic became the stop-over of American G.I.s, the warfare of today is very devastating and destructive. No need for G.I.s, it can be done remote-control, by a tip of a finger. All they need are locations where to place their missile systems. So goodluck, Philippines.
kaming mga Pilipino🇵🇭 hindi nanggugulo ang tsina ang nagsisimula ng gulo at kahit itong russia magugunaw din kasama ng china kapag kumampi sila sa masasamang elemento dito sa mundo..
What about allowing the U.S. military to be stationed in the Philippines. Of course the Philippines are not creating trouble!! That's like punching Marcos in the face and getting your ass kicked. You then try to defend yourself by saying you did not provoke Marcos?!!!! Critical thinking skills seem to be lacking mate!!!
True, we don’t start the trouble but we ( government) are the biggest wimps in defending our fisher folks. The damn government is just glazing over the situation.
China appears to be focusing on keeping any potential test conflict localised to the Philippine islands. However, the Philippines has the BrahMos missile system from India, which could potentially bring the conflict to the mainland. The Filipino forces are known for their resilience and bravery, so it would not be an easy challenge for China.
@@zenaidadelossantos1922 The PI is getting some good weapon systems. Any weapon system, missile or drone, that could take out the Three Gorges Dam would make a war with anyone in the area unprofitable. Millions of dead, Untold billions of dollars lost.
We don't want war nobody want war! But if it comes down to be called to defend our country, our freedom our allies to defend our lives and humanity then so beat it! God Bless us all! We will be ready!
Bravery is good but this is going to be a different war with technological capabilities the crucial factor. The Philippines will have to rely mainly on the US fleet and nearby US bases to provide the ships, planes and missiles necessary for the confrontation.
Its a different warfare. By a push of button, hundreds to thousands of precision, smart missiles and drones will rain down from sky toward our soil. It's no longer a man-to-man combat. Even so, if you wish to engage in a one-on-one combat, how many Chinese do you think are there to engage by as many courgeous Filipinos like you to hold the line? And by the way, don't count on to those influential rich Filipinos as they have greencards that anytime, they can fly out the country to save their butts.
yea, i know right, China or the CCP cannot even fight Taiwan by its self, but yet here the CCP is trying to take on even more countries and bigger ones like Japan and the USA, kind of sounds like the CCP and China have a death wish huh, :)
We are always ready to defend our country. This is our territory. Not all of our leader can be corrupted by china. Beginning today we will not allow that.
China owns SCS even before PH was a Spanish colony and it was a colony for like 400 years total. Colonies dont have territorial rights. That UNCLOS bullshit only happened recently so PH basically STOLE Chinese territories with the help of the west.

I only watched part of this but was surprised at no mention of Japan. China has to worry about Japan, not the US. Japan is a very serious naval power. What is the treaty between the Philippines and Japan? Secondly, how much time does China have? Their population has already collapsed, the real estate is a costly costly disaster and draining the economy. Sanctions are crushing their economy...
ok the CCP or China needs 3 things in order to wage war ( money, people and tech ) take away the money and or plus tech, that will pretty much stop the CCP or China from being able to wage war, the only reason why the CCP or China is even thinking of waging a war right now, is because they have got what the CCP says 1.4 billion people, but i say even if that is true, not all 1.4 billion Chinese are even going to fight and that is if they are even able to fight in the first place !!! and next even with those able or even willing to fight, lets us not forget the one child policy ok !!! now China is saying they have 35 million more men vs women there in China, ok good for them, then why is it there are over one million left over women there in China right now as i speak ? if China or the CCP goes to war, all this will do is make more of their people go away even faster !!! it looks and sounds to me, the CCP or China is cutting off their own nose regardless of its face !!! China is already being hit in the wallet and being hit in the tech field and by China's or the CCP's own hand, has been hit in its number of people, so really let China or the CCP go to war i say and let China and the CCP fall faster, so the rest of the world can keep moving on !!!
China is in lot of domestic troubles caused by CCP. The danger lies that CCP might go to war to arouse Chinese nationalism and divert attention away from domestic issues and lay the blame on other countries. The CCP has instigated complete censorship of information and the Chinese people have no access to external information and are brainwashed by propaganda.

It doesn't matter CCP's intention. There's no way for China to sustain any kind of war effort so far from its shores. The supply lines are too exposed.

Eversince we' Filipinos are a good friend to Chinese people. In fact many of our relatives were already part of this race. And no intent to ignite the flares to escalates the fire into chaotic complexity. However, it has been confirmed that the acts of CCP is totally brutal in terms of dealing other's lives. Because they prefer to priorities themselves for wealth. Instead of helping others destitute situation. FILIPINOS in reciprocate are too confident without knowing their own bluffed. Conflict can only be resolved pertaining to the TRUTH when each leaders show their true intent to each other's. We're not a fighter because of our love and cares to prioritized our faith and beliefs to our ALMIGHTY GOD'S TRUE TEACHINGS written in the BIBLE. Loving and caring people are out priorities. Not to destroys lives. But in case the CCP won't stop intimidating all we can say. Think first before initiating injustices to FILIPINOS. If you don't love people. We Filipinos cares a lot. So do not commenced the war. You might regret it while there's concerns and love left on our hearts. We know your motives towards us already. Even until now we considers you as our family here in Philippines as your second home. Yet, you provoked us. You made us fooled. By trying to continues your illegal activities such as the barbaric killings of some people here, drugs manufacturing, Pogo operation for your immorality, and intervening our data most probably the scamming on people's accounts . In that sensed it had made us contradictory to your opinions. You do not know how to respect others lives. Instead do unhealthy things just to recognized you on your pretentious and idiots beliefs just to favor yourselves on your own mastery of nasty intentions. Which beforehand it's not Filipinos behaviour to promote it. But thanks GOD your manipulations are now discovered. In which we will still defend not only the lives of our people but the entire world who are still under your hidden motives evil intent. So if you seek for Truth you may know how important each of us in the eyesights of our ALMIGHTY GOD through our SAVIOR JESUS'CHRIST. But if you tend to promote your I'll intention then. Do not blame Filipinos on your annihilations. We are with an ALMIGHTY GOD'S protection with our SAVIOR JESUS'CHRIST. Please have mercy to yourselves don't be driven to OBEYS an evil desires. So nothing will happen to all of us. Return to OBEYS, Love and Respect to our ALMIGHTY GOD'S RULES mandated in the BIBLE. So you will all be protected and be saved from the WRATH.

Until corruption and corrupt politicians are dominant in the Philippine Government the status of the Philippine stability will always be volatile, unstable, and rocky. Another problem is the voting population where the majority of voters are easily swayed by the corrupt politicians in power. Large part of the population are poor and the small part of the intelligent minority cannot influence the election of good Government. The Country is not industrialized and most of the good workers are working outside of the country. One big factor also is Chinese enterprises dominates the economy, although they are now mostly naturalized Filipinos.

I don't think China would risk going into war. First of all China's frontal territorial expansion is sorrounded by other countries. China is big a lot of neighboring countries are eager to divide her territory.
Credit should be given to China for solidifying the inhabitants of the islands, waking up nationalism. But We 🇵🇭 have the most powerful weapon/shield : ABBA.
oh for real, if it was no for the CCP and China showing their true hand towards the Filipino people and the Philippines, the US would not have 9 military bases there now, so as a American all i can say to the CCP and China is, Thank You :)
No. The US involvement will only create war in the region. I think ASEAN should rename the South China Sea into Southeast Asian sea. Secondly, ASEAN countries should make a unified code of conduct for military operation in the Southeast Asian sea. Form a coalition of ASEAN countries to patrol together, for example Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Philippines’s navy to patrol together in the disputed areas. This way, China and the US navy can stay out of the region. And attacking one will result in attacking all. China definitely won’t attack 4 countries at once. Lastly, ASEAN countries should make a concession that any dispute between Southeast Asian countries about the disputed areas will go through the court. Whatever decision that comes up, all parties should respect it.
@MNomad90 Interesting point; unfortunately, I believe the CCP regime would find the way to coerce the nations around the area, and the Philippines would end up losing its territory
@@hiroshinagoya2469 That is the point I am making. Alone, Southeast Asian countries are vulnerable. Together, they are mighty. A concrete ASEAN military cooperation is needed. Southeast Asian should make it “Southeast Asia is for Southeast Asian” rhetoric.

Hi Lei, hope your coughing gets better. My forecast a few weeks ago went into a similar direction: "PLA China's military will pull an aggressive (and successful) stunt around July 23rd, 2025 - target probably the Philippines". The energy-profile shows a strong indication for this to happen in July next year - as a successful SINGLE EVENT without later follow ups.
Remember the revelation says the smallest country appears to be the most dangerous to fight with. This small country will rise and win all the battles in the world..
China Has No Legal Claim To Taiwan. Shimonoseki Treaty → San Francisco Peace Treaty → UN Resolution 2758 does not impinge on Taiwan’s undecided international status → Taiwan Relations Act: Neither the peoples of China nor the deluded 23 million who deem themselves the “🇹🇼people ON Taiwan" (在台🇹🇼人民, TRA terminology) can enjoy Taiwan's sovereignty. This is the United States' ironclad position on post-WWII Taiwan. The United States has the final say. The Atlantic Council, a think tank with ties to US-DOS, has been floating the notion that NATO ought to step up to the plate as regards the Chinese threat. That’s all fine and dandy. However, any meaningful coalition arrayed in defense of Taiwan should be broadened to include the 49 SFPT signatory powers, Japan included. That coalition should be named United Nations 2.0 ((UN 2.0). Japan and the US included, the 49 collectively remember that Japan did not cede Taiwan to any China.
But to some chinese they believe that Japan cede Taiwan to china especially they kept mentioning the incident when Mao went on war. On the time of Mao zedong

china might have high-end technology in arms and the number of soldiers, but we all know that their troops don't have strong proof or background of actual war or combat experience.
China is all talk... They will think twice before going to war with the Philippines. Number one, which is obviously the US-Philippines relations. Number 2, the Philippines, has a battle hardened military, despite its size can go toe to toe with China. Number 3, Filipino soldiers are one of the bravest and resilient forces in the world. China knows that because they have experienced it when 900 Filipino soldiers won a head on battle with with 15,000 PLA soldiers in the Battle of Yultong during the Korean War, and not only repelled the Chinese but also killed more than 500 of them.
China should never understimate philippine, we may never posses weapon of mass distruction but we have the courage and determination to defend our country.

@@paoloorate2265 What an absolute LIE and Nonsense!!! There is just one truth here, China is big and powerful hence they try to take whatever it wants because China knows the Philippines is incapable of defending itself. China shouldn't be too overconfident, history is not kind to aggressors, one day reckoning will come to you. Just ask Germany and Japan.
Ms Lei. We the Filipino people are peace and loving by nature. But pls don't provoke us cause we are willing to fight with or without ally. We will stand by any conflicts to defend our legal right.what is ours is ours.
We can see the possibility for the CCP to use the Philippines as a “practice” adversary for a military conflict intended for Taiwan and the US. We think that nobody will disagree that without the US, the Philippines is no match in terms of army and/or navy size to China. However, the Philippines (as well as, Taiwan) has one thing on their side, which the CCP does not have, and that is TIME.
Indeed. A Chinese common idiom says "Slaughter a chicken to scare off a monkey". PH could be the chicken. That could rattle US alliances in the Indo-Pacific if the US doesn't show much mettle and will get its credibility destroyed. The PH needs to show more support for the US-PH alliance. My understanding is that within the PH, like Taiwan, there are anti-US, anti-West groups. These groups are CCP mouthpieces and think that Beijing will give them chocolate if China becomes the region's unrestrained hegemon.
@@MurderPierrot It would take a 'huge' amount of self-delusional reasoning to argue, at this point, how the PH military isn't lacking in modernization compared to China. But, let us put it this way, the CCP has just approved (in US dollar terms) their country's national defense budget at $231 billion; on the other hand, the total GDP for PH is estimated at $471 billion. To match China's defense budget, the latter has to spend greater or equal to half of PH's annual income. For that to happen for the Philippines, it would mean taking away money from education, healthcare, infrastructure, and probably, even assistance to the poor. And, that could only probably happen, if all semblance of democratic processes are non-existent for the PH, certainly, we think that is no problem at all for the CCP.

Conflict in SCS will affect the flow economy of Sokor, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan. Are China ready to face the 2 million Filipino reservists in early conflict? Remember Philippines have a lot of human resources in prolong conflict.
Philippines land mass will be the graveyard of PLA's military if they make war with Philippines. Filipinos even civilians were hardened by 6 decades of internal conflict.
I find the information you share about whether China will start a war with Philippine very informative I hope the Philippine president and military strategist will be able to listen to this message. Thanks. Selma
If china will only recognize international law of the seas the Philippines and china unlikely will have conflict with each other and the international community. Law is a law and there is no good substitute for it on orderliness and peace.
I think that trying to get a feel of the situation by attacking the Philippines is a mis- calculation for China, as it could draw in the US as they want, but spark even more of a response than they expected. When drawing in the US, it will activate more participation with other countries such as Australia and Japan. Australia, US and Japan have been down this road before, and know what to expect.

Later this month 25 Sep is the Philippines ADAS Military Conference and they should be using this venue as a way forward for Navy upgrades in lethality capabilities. I use to work at an American Embassy and my job was FMS and I can see that they need serious help.

I disagree that a war with the Philippines can be controlled and scalable. Remember that a war brings in all the unexpected and uncontrollable events and war will bring in the US to the conflict and the outcome is not as predictable as some experts claim.
I'm happy to have been purged from the military. I know for sure we will lose the war , so it's better I get out early, rather than be blamed for the loss

Good day madam Lei. I am a Filipino to start with madam. China should abide with the international law, specifically with the UNCLOS. If China continue this aggressive and unlawful moves in the West Philippines sea and the rest of south china sea, I do believe it will lead to a war.

Hey Jude. What do you think, China will wait us to become strong before they strike? Of course, they will build military advances and surround us before we become military capable or even before our big brother come and reposition their missile systems toward China. The issue of WPS is only the tip of the iceberg. The true issue is the plan of China to re-take Taiwan and we're just being agitated by western influencers that China is slowly invading us. If ever, we could be the most destructed region if we let these two superpowers to make our waters and sky their battlefields. Think hard, brother.
I'm a US citizen living in the Philippines. I watched your entire presentation with so much interest. Thank you for talking about this subject. Many in the corporate media ignore the possibility of an armed conflict erupting between China and Southeast Asian nations, particularly the Philippines.
Here's my two cents: To those watching the Philippines from the outside, the Philippines may seem to be a chaotic place full of unsophisticated people. Even its political leadership and the military appear to underestimate the real possibility of China starting a war with the Philippines. I think it's because most Filipinos believe that the Mutual Defense Treaty between the US and the Philippines is the single biggest deterrent that stops China from attacking the Philippines. Well, it might be true, but the Philippines has never invoked the treaty because it has no need for it... until powerful China's growing fear that its economic model is failing, and the possibility that the CCP may soon find itself it has no longer the ability to feed millions of its people because of China's dwindling resources.
However, to your point that China's real target is the unification of Taiwan and China, and not the Philippines - might be true, but it will be the mother of all mistakes for the PLA to "train its troops" by waging war against the Philippines. While the Philippine military is smaller in numbers compared to the PLA, I hope the Chinese military leadership should consider that the troops of the Philippine military are heavy in warfighting experience. It should not forget😮 that the Philippine military has started modernizing its equipment and war-fighting capabilities.
The Chinese are very sensitive to maintaining its image internationally. So I dont think it will be in its best interests to start a war and then end it when they realize that they have made a big mistake
Are you blind?...our government cannot even provide water cannon to PCG then you want us to engage in a full scale war?We dont trust that MDT you are talking about ...look at Israel it has an MDT also with the US but how come they let Iran to attack Israel?
I 100% agree with you. I just hope that Major General Mao Xinyu agrees with you. Ya know, since he's in charge of strategic planning. 🤦♀
Why does China need to test U.S resolve in defending Taiwan? If it wants Taiwan, then China must grow some balls and take that chance. Otherwise the general worldwide perception that China is a paper tiger will remain well entrenched. These " preparations " or " dress rehearsals " don't make sense. China all four carriers risk getting decimated in a matter of minutes whether they are in the vicinity of the confrontation with Philippines or not.

ok the CCP or China needs 3 things in order to wage war ( money, people and tech ) take away the money and or plus tech, that will pretty much stop the CCP or China from being able to wage war, the only reason why the CCP or China is even thinking of waging a war right now, is because they have got what the CCP says 1.4 billion people, but i say even if that is true, not all 1.4 billion Chinese are even going to fight and that is if they are even able to fight in the first place !!! and next even with those able or even willing to fight, lets us not forget the one child policy ok !!! now China is saying they have 35 million more men vs women there in China, ok good for them, then why is it there are over one million left over women there in China right now as i speak ? if China or the CCP goes to war, all this will do is make more of their people go away even faster !!! it looks and sounds to me, the CCP or China is cutting off their own nose regardless of its face !!! China is already being hit in the wallet and being hit in the tech field and by China's or the CCP's own hand, has been hit in its number of people, so really let China or the CCP go to war i say and let China and the CCP fall faster, so the rest of the world can keep moving on !!!
China is in lot of domestic troubles caused by CCP.

And no intent to ignite the flares to escalates the fire into chaotic complexity. However, it has been confirmed that the acts of CCP is totally brutal in terms of dealing other's lives.

Not to destroys lives. But in case the CCP won't stop intimidating all we can say. Think first before initiating injustices to FILIPINOS. If you don't love people. We Filipinos cares a lot. So do not commenced the war. You might regret it while there's concerns and love left on our hearts. We know your motives towards us already. Even until now we considers you as our family here in Philippines as your second home. Yet, you provoked us. You made us fooled. By trying to continues your illegal activities such as the barbaric killings of some people here, drugs manufacturing, Pogo operation for your immorality, and intervening our data most probably the scamming on people's accounts .

Instead do unhealthy things just to recognized you on your pretentious and idiots beliefs just to favor yourselves on your own mastery of nasty intentions. Which beforehand it's not Filipinos behaviour to promote it. But thanks GOD your manipulations are now discovered. In which we will still defend not only the lives of our people but the entire world who are still under your hidden motives evil intent.

Until corruption and corrupt politicians are dominant in the Philippine Government the status of the Philippine stability will always be volatile, unstable, and rocky. Another problem is the voting population where the majority of voters are easily swayed by the corrupt politicians in power. Large part of the population are poor and the small part of the intelligent minority cannot influence the election of good Government. The Country is not industrialized and most of the good workers are working outside of the country. One big factor also is Chinese enterprises dominates the economy, although they are now mostly naturalized Filipinos.

Or smart not getting involved in nonsensical wars! US are warmongers!
The U.S. needs to start escorting the Philippines fleets; I doubt the PLA Paper Tiger will dare to attack the U.S. Navy.
No. The US involvement will only create war in the region. I think ASEAN should rename the South China Sea into Southeast Asian sea. Secondly, ASEAN countries should make a unified code of conduct for military operation in the Southeast Asian sea. Form a coalition of ASEAN countries to patrol together, for example Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Philippines’s navy to patrol together in the disputed areas. This way, China and the US navy can stay out of the region. And attacking one will result in attacking all. China definitely won’t attack 4 countries at once. Lastly, ASEAN countries should make a concession that any dispute between Southeast Asian countries about the disputed areas will go through the court. Whatever decision that comes up, all parties should respect it.

China Has No Legal Claim To Taiwan.
Shimonoseki Treaty → San Francisco Peace Treaty → UN Resolution 2758 does not impinge on Taiwan’s undecided international status → Taiwan Relations Act: Neither the peoples of China nor the deluded 23 million who deem themselves the “🇹🇼people ON Taiwan" (在台🇹🇼人民, TRA terminology) can enjoy Taiwan's sovereignty. This is the United States' ironclad position on post-WWII Taiwan. The United States has the final say.
The Atlantic Council, a think tank with ties to US-DOS, has been floating the notion that NATO ought to step up to the plate as regards the Chinese threat. That’s all fine and dandy. However, any meaningful coalition arrayed in defense of Taiwan should be broadened to include the 49 SFPT signatory powers, Japan included. That coalition should be named United Nations 2.0 ((UN 2.0).
Japan and the US included, the 49 collectively remember that Japan did not cede Taiwan to any China.
But to some chinese they believe that Japan cede Taiwan to china especially they kept mentioning the incident when Mao went on war. On the time of Mao zedong

China knows that because they have experienced it when 900 Filipino soldiers won a head on battle with with 15,000 PLA soldiers in the Battle of Yultong during the Korean War, and not only repelled the Chinese but also killed more than 500 of them.
China should never understimate philippine, we may never posses weapon of mass distruction but we have the courage and determination to defend our country.
Philippines are not afraid for the war….😂😂😂😂😂
@@maretisdosedla8620 China has no interest in you 😆😆
China owns SCS even before PH was a Spanish colony and it was a colony for like 400 years total. Colonies dont have territorial rights. That UNCLOS bullshit only happened recently so PH basically STOLE Chinese territories with the help of the west.
@@paoloorate2265 What an absolute LIE and Nonsense!!! There is just one truth here, China is big and powerful hence they try to take whatever it wants because China knows the Philippines is incapable of defending itself. China shouldn't be too overconfident, history is not kind to aggressors, one day reckoning will come to you. Just ask Germany and Japan.
Ms Lei. We the Filipino people are peace and loving by nature. But pls don't provoke us cause we are willing to fight with or without ally. We will stand by any conflicts to defend our legal right.what is ours is ours.
Its not going to be war with philipines only and that china will never wish for.😂😂😂
We can see the possibility for the CCP to use the Philippines as a “practice” adversary for a military conflict intended for Taiwan and the US. We think that nobody will disagree that without the US, the Philippines is no match in terms of army and/or navy size to China. However, the Philippines (as well as, Taiwan) has one thing on their side, which the CCP does not have, and that is TIME.
Indeed.
A Chinese common idiom says "Slaughter a chicken to scare off a monkey".
PH could be the chicken.
That could rattle US alliances in the Indo-Pacific if the US doesn't show much mettle and will get its credibility destroyed.
The PH needs to show more support for the US-PH alliance.
My understanding is that within the PH, like Taiwan, there are anti-US, anti-West groups.
These groups are CCP mouthpieces and think that Beijing will give them chocolate if China becomes the region's unrestrained hegemon.
No we don't 😆 PH is even behind on ita modernization. What time.
@@MurderPierrot It would take a 'huge' amount of self-delusional reasoning to argue, at this point, how the PH military isn't lacking in modernization compared to China. But, let us put it this way, the CCP has just approved (in US dollar terms) their country's national defense budget at $231 billion; on the other hand, the total GDP for PH is estimated at $471 billion. To match China's defense budget, the latter has to spend greater or equal to half of PH's annual income. For that to happen for the Philippines, it would mean taking away money from education, healthcare, infrastructure, and probably, even assistance to the poor. And, that could only probably happen, if all semblance of democratic processes are non-existent for the PH, certainly, we think that is no problem at all for the CCP.
@@alscott212 there is now way to match em . What i meant was ph cant even commit to their targets in modernization. Shit gets decided on pretty late can't even see the sense of urgency on people at position
Lei...I am not sure why you aren't getting all the likes your show deserves..you should be in the millions of viewers as far as I am concerned...I wish I could help you financially but if I ever can I will. I wish you well and keep up the fantastic programs...you are very educational and I learn a lot. Thank you 😊
Sadly, my beloved China is acting a lot like Germany with its sense of entitlement before and during the second world war. :-(
You are a CIA bot so please do not insult 1.4 billion people
Be careful with the Philippines. They will fight. Filipinos are warriors. CCP is a joke. Don’t make the mistake of angering the Filipinos.
@@silafaupaulmeredith7251 If China is not going to recover the land from Russia, then it is truly an insult to the 1.4 billion people.
@@silafaupaulmeredith7251 I am not insulting the people, my master was one of the people. Its the leadership I disapprove of. And disapproving is far from being an insult. Kindness is in and of itself a gift. Are you a CCP bot?
@@silafaupaulmeredith7251, a billion plus people? Who India? China had never been 1.4 billion. At the time the One Child Policy was enforced in 1980, China was only 900 million. Perhaps only 400 million by now, and that’s being optimistic.
Another excellent post. Thank you Lei! 🙏☺️
Really well done reporting as usual 👍

If china declare wars against they won’t fight with Philippines 🇵🇭 alone because it will ignited the Philippine US mutual defence treaty ( MDT ) & if it happens I believe US alliance will be involved to defend Philippines 🇵🇭 & international free navigation ( global trade route ).

Hindi pwede hindi nila tulungan ang Pilipinas dahil nakataya dyan ang strong defence ng US sa indo pacific region kapag hinayaan nila masakop ng china ang Pilipinas china can easily penetrate islands chain hedges against US MILITARY DEFENCE. Kaya I’m pretty sure hindi pababayaan ng US ang Pilipinas at yan ang dahilan kung bakit nabuo Ang MUTUAL DEFENCE TREATY noong 1950’s dahil nag umpisa na noon I claim ng china ang buong SOUTH CHINA SEA 🌊. US know china will take military advantage against them.
I am a Filipino living in the Philippines (with ties in the US - as family members live in the US) and was very much interested and enlightened with this episode. I have been following you for more than a year and most enlightened by the work and sharing you do. thank you and please continue your work. QUESTION FOR FUTURE EPISODES: What are the geopolitics countries and their leanings around the West Philippine Sea situation?
China should follow the International law
watching from West Philippines Sea ⛵
With the USA beside the Philippines , it’s not going to happen!
@@1992popeye I TRULY BELIEVE IT NOT GONNA HAPPEN EVEN WITHOUT THE USA 🇺🇸 BACKING PHILIPPINE,
CHINA WOULD NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE, UNLESS PHILIPPINE MAKE THE FIRST MOVE.
The PI would beat the PRC without the US!
we cannot be so sure these days that is why The Philippines should make sure to strengthen its military and civil forces to its utmost capacity without burying itself in debts through military hardware acquisition
@@motherlibertyI agree with you but how do you do it without debt. The US will pressure them to but US equipment, it makes sense to do it because they are allies. However US equipment is very expensive, this maybe the reason why the bought the Bhramos missile from India
@@jdog7259 It's never too late for the Philippines to invest and develop its own military industry. While acquiring military equipment from foreign countries, The Philippines must simultaneously secure its own domestic building capability to make sure that it can sustain itself in the event of a conflict. It will indeed take time and resources but it will be beneficial in the long run. Just like how indonesia is developing its own capabilities.
Rome wasn't built overnight.
c can never win the mighty hand of our powerful God. The hand of our living God is the mist powerful weapon of my beloved country Philippines. Our living God will fight for us just like king David done with Goliath.
Sorry your wronglll the philippines hasalways been war ready. Better know our history how the Filipinos fightlll
Thanks for a very insightful observation! More power!
I don’t think China is capable of war (unless the war comes to China) with the current state of its economy and the many years of corruption within the military that diminished its alleged state of combat readiness. Most Chinese citizens will tell you how great China’s military is - my simple question to them is “have you ever seen an aircraft land on its aircraft carrier”? A good friend who left for the US after retiring from the Chinese navy swore on his life that if you see any landing (not takeoff) of aircrafts on any Chinese aircraft carriers, they are photoshopped
U 😂😂😂 THE MARCOS FAMILY > ONE 😂😂 ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST CORRUPTED.

WE Filipino are warriors how many wars decade , Filipino vs China and North Korea war before in Korea , Filipino warriors always win . Chinas dont estimate Filipino let see what happen CPP or china if they want war !
If ccp start a war against the ph. It would be bad news. The ph lost military power 40 years ago, if war started Filipino will learn their lesson and decided to become a superpower.
we can instantly adapt to anything...China underestimates us
they should be scared if Philippines decided to attack or invade..but that's most unlikely considering military power
buts its a possibility
@@junfalushir4106 it does, everyone would be in shock if the Biringan City is real.

Conflict in SCS will affect the flow economy of Sokor, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan. Are China ready to face the 2 million Filipino reservists in early conflict? Remember Philippines have a lot of human resources in prolong conflict.
Philippines land mass will be the graveyard of PLA's military if they make war with Philippines. Filipinos even civilians were hardened by 6 decades of internal conflict.
I find the information you share about whether China will start a war with Philippine very informative I hope the Philippine president and military strategist will be able to listen to this message. Thanks. Selma
If china will only recognize international law of the seas the Philippines and china unlikely will have conflict with each other and the international community. Law is a law and there is no good substitute for it on orderliness and peace.
I think that trying to get a feel of the situation by attacking the Philippines is a mis- calculation for China, as it could draw in the US as they want, but spark even more of a response than they expected. When drawing in the US, it will activate more participation with other countries such as Australia and Japan.
Australia, US and Japan have been down this road before, and know what to expect.
The CCP is never obvious. They want Mongolia back.
You mean Northern Manchuria

excellent observations regarding the "scalability" of a South China Sea conflict vs. an action against Taiwan.
Hitler was defeated, Napoleon went back home, and so will Xi Jing Ping. A lot of people are smarter.
If there was an unavoided military battle between USA and China, these both countries would prefer to choose a battle ground near Philipines ( which is a relatively poor country ) rather than in other countries of East Asia because countries like Taiwan , Korea and Japan are more valuable to the USA and importanrt for global economy contribuitions.
You need to study geography to know the importance of philippines and learn HOW TO PLAY GEOPOLITICS and how to run the global economy and then kearn the most important gateway or trade route on this planet that explains how important the philippines to the entire world....
Its not a collision its a deliberate ramming of a Filipino navy vessel by a much larger Chinese coast guard vessel...an act of aggression tantamount to war

Lei, hope you are feeling better and back to 100% soon. Yea, so this is Lieutenant Colonel Sullivan and I retired from the U.S. Army and I'm living here in the Philippines now. I would look forward to a conversation with you about the Philippines Military posture, capability gaps, and its modernization plans, if any. They truly need to focus on FMS or Foreign Military Sales. Later this month 25 Sep is the Philippines ADAS Military Conference and they should be using this venue as a way forward for Navy upgrades in lethality capabilities. I use to work at an American Embassy and my job was FMS and I can see that they need serious help.
