Taiwan officially called itself as the Republic of China (ROC). It has a historical connection to the nine-dash line, which is also referred to them as eleven-dash line, and they are claiming the same claim as the PRC too. So you support Taiwan, you are also supporting their nine-dash line claim too. LOL

The majority Muslim fellahin in Palestine were the descendants of Jewish peasants who had converted to Islam, perhaps to escape the jizyah (poll tax) which was levied on all non-Muslims after the Arab conquest. Many Palestinians could have more of the original tribal "Jewish blood" than do the Eastern European / Eurasian converts that now oppress them. Few rural Jewish farmers were ever "driven into exile" and may well have converted to Islam centuries ago to keep their farms, and to keep his/her family from scattering into abject poverty and/or homelessness in the wilderness, either of which could have been literally life-threatening

Filipinos support Taiwan against chinese aggression in the same premise that Taiwan is supporting the Philippines against Chinese aggression. I hope the access of Philippine bases north of Luzon to american forces will deter Chinese invasion of Taiwan.

what needs to happen is that all of SE Asia needs to form a multi nation Maritime co operative.. From the Philapines to Indonesia, when you engage as one you are more powerfull than China by a long way.. Ya'll need to come together
The problem with United Nations is they cannot enforce their ruling. It's a nonsense UN favored PH over these territories but never assert its decision.
Very interesting on the "powder keg" effect. This is indeed very possible. Especially if Taiwan gets attacked, its nearly impossible for China to not threaten Philippine Territories or even hit US/Philippine ships. What's worst is if China will indeed attack US ships, this will trigger Treaties from US-Japan and US-South Korea. I don't have to mention UK, Canada, Australia's alliance/treaties from the US. The only saving grace for China is for North Korea. I doubt Russia will help directly (militarily) since China doesn't help them during Ukraine.
Philippines knows that Taiwan has the same claims as China. However, Taiwan is a lawful and a decent neighbor, despite being a better economy and military. I can say with confidence that Philippines will be an ally to Taiwan, specially having opened several US bases at the height of China - Taiwan tensions.
Philippines protecting her own territories also means upholding the rule of law of the seas and freedom of travel and trade especially in the water passage where trillions of dollars of goods meant trillions of dollars worth of livelihoods are involved. As much as Philippines can not tolerate China's land grabbing misadventures, the world should never tolerate them either trying to control the water passage where our livelihoods depend upon.
To China the Philippines will not ever ever step down or now down to china. War is not a problem to us we have been in this situation ever since an occupation or invasion will come to the Philippines.
China should not insists on its own unilateral 10-line claim. It has no legal and historical basis. China want to enforce this territorial claim they invented which is too excessive and not recognized by all countries around the world. The Philippines is not claiming the entire SCS but only fighting for their 200 mile Exclusive Economic Zone which is otherwise known as WPS and it is in accordance with the UNCLOS.
China is guarding and enforcing sovereignty over the islands, shoals and reefs in South China Sea because Philippines constantly tries to take them. The Philippines currently occupies 11 islands, shoals, etc., in South China Sea. These were originally under Republic of China/Taiwan’s administration. They were seized by Philippines from ROC/Taiwan when it was too weak to defend from Philippines and pressure from the US. For example, Philippines seized Taiwan’s Zhongye Dao/Thitu Island during a storm when Taiwan’s troop temporarily relocated to nearby Taiping Island for safety. Philippines keeps trying to take Huangyan Island/Scarborough Shoal and Rén'ài Reef/Second Thomas Shoal by purposely shipwrecking the Sierra Madre as an outpost, and tries to transport construction material to the illegally shipwrecked Sierra Madre for reinforcement on-site or near it. China is guarding them and enforcing sovereignty over them because Philippines constantly tries to steal them.
Wow! Did I hear that correctly? US, PH, & AU are going to hold military training exercises just 200 km south of Taiwan? Is this something new? That is going to really tick of the CCP! Can anyone share a link with details about the operation, pls?
Balikatan, an annual military exercise between the Philippines, and USA. In the last decade, it's expanded to have consistent Australian participation especially ever since it became the second country after USA with a Visiting Forces Agreement with the Philippines. This year they say they're gonna hold (at least one part of) it around Batanes Province, the northernmost point of the Philippines with an island so close to Taiwan you can see it on the horizon Edit: Also the Philippines, and France are in talks of expanding defense cooperation and even having a VFA, while also trying to do the same with Japan
CORRECTIONS PLEASE, ITS SOUTH EAST ASIAN SEA,,INDEED NOT south china sea, BECAUSE its belongs to all asian according to its thier exclusive economic zone, china is very far from PHILIPPINES, thier not neighbour, God bless Taiwan and Philippines!Amen And Amen!
The actions by China are those of enforcing sovereignty over the islands, shoals, reefs, etc., because Philippines keeps trying to take them. China’s enforcement procedures are not aggressive or bullying. Philippines is really the one that uses aggressive/bullying, hostile and deadly forces against other countries’ fishermen (Taiwan, Vietnam, China) especially back in the 60’s and 70’s, during and after they seized the islands and shoals from ROC/Taiwan. They shoot to kill, did onboard searches, arrested fishermen, seized fishermen’s boats and rammed their boats. However, China has not caused any fatality over the incidents between China and Philippines. The Philippines, during the 60’s and 70’s, have forcefully seized and occupied 11 islands, shoals, reefs, etc., which included Zhongye Dao/Thitu Island. These were originally under ROC/Taiwan’s administration. They were seized by Philippines from ROC/Taiwan when it was too weak to defend from Philippines and pressure from the US. China only uses blocking, which is less aggressive and less invasive than the methods used by coast guards of Philippines and around the world.

China will not listen whatever result in any legal way favoring Philippines. ASEAN is no use at all. Better to be in this way standing for the right thing. But still hoping and praying others help our small country😢
Chjna's game of passing the blame by acting as the victim and suppresing those who take side with Philippines thru giving stern warnings, a real bully's actuation.
The Philippines was a Spanish and then US colony. They set its boundaries but did not include any islands in the South China Sea as they knew the islands belonged to China. But later due to navigation improvement, they could reach far into SCS so wanted to annex the islands and denied their previous admittance that the islands belonged to China.
@@jmgonzales7701 Ancient Chinese lived on the islands of South China Sea. Their relics like temples, coins and china artifacts were found there. These relics are ancient Chinese because at their same time, no other countries reached the same smelting or porcelain making skills. Only China could do that. China owns the 9 dash area of SCS. UN and most countries admit this truth. For example, it was US warships that carried China soldiers cruising SCS in 1946 to declare China sovereignty over there. But later due to navigation improvement in other SCS countries, they wanted to annex SCS so they denied their previous admittance that the islands belonged to China.
Show proof, if no proof then leave our islands. Ancient Chinese maps show only Hainan as part of their islands. Mongols captured China so maybe Mongolia showed say China land is there’s.
Philippines stands not only for its territory , also for the Peace and Free passages of neighboring countries up to the Free Worlds Economic Trade .

Internet search : Demand for shipments from China via rail through Russia has ‘skyrocketed’ since the Red Sea attacks ...( Feb 1, 2024 mucho news )
The cross-border standard railway connectivity between China and Vietnam will be completed after a year. The grand vision of the Pan-Asia Railway took a significant step forward, becoming the most tangible echo in Sino-Vietnamese cooperation.
Vietnam is connecting the intermodal railway to China and through China to Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Central Asian and European countries... Through China's railway infrastructure, Vietnam also transports tea , coffee, ,tropical fruits, food, etc. to Russia, transporting garments, leather and shoes, manufactured goods, etc. to Europe...
Compared to waterways, rail transport time is also significantly faster and the US navy is nowhere to be seen. For example, a container transported by ship from Vietnam to Russia can take up to 45 days, while transporting by rail only takes 25 days. Railways also have an advantage when it comes to bringing goods deep inland.
Red Sea crisis is still going on after 60 days and disrupting global supply chains. Main maritime carriers - like Maersk, MSC, Evergreen, CMA CGM - keep diverting all container vessels from Red Sea routes around Africa’s Cape of Good Hope. The number of cargo ships in the Red Sea has decreased by 90% compared to 2023 (Clarksons Research).
The repercussions of the Suez Canal Crisis reverberated across the global shipping industry.
Hundreds of large vessels are rerouting around the southern tip of Africa, a longer route adding 10-14 days of travel, to escape drone and missile attacks by Yemeni Houthis.
This has created a multiple-front storm for global trade: freight rates increasing daily, due to longer shipping times and container ships and oil tankers’ shortage (occupied for longer). Higher insurance costs must then be added to the cost of fuel.
The Red Sea attacks by Houthi forces have triggered a notable surge in demand for rail shipments from China through Russia to Europe, offering an alternative as maritime routes face disruptions
Rail Bridge Cargo, a Dutch logistics company, said to CNBC China-Europe rail route bookings were up 37% from the beginning of the crisis.
Rail goods trains are a very efficient way of shipping from China to Europe, they are cheaper than air freight and take much less time to travel from China to Europe than sea freight (18-22 days)
The China rail freight to Europe is known as the Eurasian Continental Bridge. It is the longest railway line in the world, passing through Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Poland and Germany before reaching its final destination.
China will not listen whatever result in any legal way favoring Philippines. ASEAN is no use at all. Better to be in this way standing for the right thing. But still hoping and praying others help our small country😢

I love how they have analyzed the situations. And how they emphasized China as a troublemaker and peace destabilizer.
Military age males should all be drafted. Strength in numbers.
The Philippines was a Spanish and then US colony. They set its boundaries but did not include any islands in the South China Sea as they knew the islands belonged to China. But later due to navigation improvement, they could reach far into SCS so wanted to annex the islands and denied their previous admittance that the islands belonged to China.
China has no map of its claim. We do
@@jmgonzales7701 Ancient Chinese lived on the islands of South China Sea. Their relics like temples, coins and china artifacts were found there. These relics are ancient Chinese because at their same time, no other countries reached the same smelting or porcelain making skills. Only China could do that. China owns the 9 dash area of SCS. UN and most countries admit this truth. For example, it was US warships that carried China soldiers cruising SCS in 1946 to declare China sovereignty over there. But later due to navigation improvement in other SCS countries, they wanted to annex SCS so they denied their previous admittance that the islands belonged to China.
Show proof, if no proof then leave our islands. Ancient Chinese maps show only Hainan as part of their islands. Mongols captured China so maybe Mongolia showed say China land is there’s.
You don't know Mongolia is china land in Qing Dyansty?And the Russia kingdom robbed Mongolia.
