South China Sea is not only a Philippine issue. It is an issue that concerns the whole world to keep it open and free. Why does the Philippine shoulder the whole burden of defending it? What’s wrong with working with the US, Japan, Australia, and other like minded nations in its defense?
As a Filipino American, don't rely too much at United States. US has its own interest. Most Americans think America first. Kaya mas maganda na palakasin natin ang hukbong sandatahan ng Pilipinas para hindi masyadong nabubully and stop government corruption. Dyan lang uunlad ang Pilipinas.
Philippine military budget $5b per year. China military budget, at least $250b per year. Logic says Philippines need the U S and your sentiment is foolish.
You are right. One can be a friend and Ally but not subservient and a bootlicker as Duterte was to China. A bully would think twice if your friend is a bigger and stronger bully.
I love the way the conversation goes . . . dialogical makikita mo ang punto de vista ng bawat isa . We have a long way to go kailangan talaga ang maging mapag-analiza sa lahat ng nangyayari sa ating bansa. Salute for the four of you. 🙏🙏🙏
This Patrick guy pretends as if he doesn't know what has happened and what is happening between the Philippines and China with regards to the wps. His arguments don't make any sense when confronted with the facts.
healthy conversation with Richard Heydarian...very informative show. hope you will have more of this kind of this one...Kudos guys!!! intellectual conversation like this will help great minds to come out and think as well!
The question is posed as if the Philippines has any other choice. The only reason why the CCP hasn't fully occupied the Philippines' EEZ is because of the its alliance and MDT with the USA.
Agree with sir ronald Such act is tantamount to a eco fin sanction which china is more vulnerable and sensitive to. Mabuhay po sir ronald and the gang. Great exchange.
Actually mas malaki ang economic interest ng US sa Taiwan kesa sa Pinas dahil doon nanggagaling ang mga sophisticated IC at electronic devices nila. Mas favorite nia ang Taiwan kesa sa atin. Furthermore, may tampo pa ang US dahil pinalayas ang military bases nila dito. Mas maganda gawin ng bansa natin ay ipersuade na lang ang US to store their heavy weapons sa North natin for incoming invasion of Taiwan. Sakyan natin yong issue ng China-Taiwan reunification. Pero it will serve also as a huge detterence against China and kung sakali magkaputukan sa WPS ay madali tayong matutulungan ng US forces. Kaya tama na ifortify yong North Philippines with US weapons and that is hitting 2 birds in one stone. Wag tayo pumayag na empty or for future use pa yong mga bases ng US lalo na yong nasa Norte. May critical use yon against China. Lukewarm yong response ng US pag WPS ang usapan at kaya ginaganito mga sundalo natin sa WPS.
I suggest mr. Llamas just leave this program. He is not given his due time to talk and elaborate. Surely, there are many other programs begging for his participation.
IF ONLY coprruption in the government is eradicated, nakabili na sana tayo ng mga modernong pang giyera. whether we like it ot not we need to invest for our security.
You should start thinking on your own and not follow how the great majority of people think. Corruption is major problem in our country, true, but has nothing to do why we lack funds to modernize our military. Since 2016, education has always been on the top list, budget-wise, 2024 PH National Budget, DEP-ED got P 900+ Billion pesos, DPWH got P 800+ Billion pesos, while at number 5 on the lisr DND only got P 280+ Billion pesos. The difference between DEP-ED and DND's budget is so huge, by comparison, 1 year of DEP-ED's budget is equal to 3 to 3.5 years budget of DND. Now tell me, where's the corruption there?
From what he’s shown, Patrick needs a deeper understanding of world geopolitics. His understanding of the Ukraine conflict and its NATO aspiration was awful and for bringing up the stand alone against China idea was very naive.
A BIG YES! I live here in the US and that's what most people here think. We simply won't develop our own. A BIG part of it is our adherance to colonial mentality.
@@baldogtondo7017 and you need to improve your spelling skills.. If such is your narrative, What is your action? Insult others because they are smarter than you? Improve your spelling. Needs work.
They are relying to the US because of the mutual defense treaty and Philippines is a small country against China is not strong enough to fight them, so they need help from the US since there is existing treaty!
Nakita ko na yung point ni Sir Patrick, trabaho lang at walang personalan. As a journalist, kailangan laging tingnan ang both sides diba. More power to Storycon!
Patrick should wake up! Aminin na natin na di natin kaya ang China at kelangan natin leverage ang alliances natin. Tama si Richard Heydarian, gumawa tayo ng strategy natin as Philippines. We need like-minded countries para tulungan tayo ipressure ang China.
Mabuhay kayo. On the issue of chenese shandong fleet moving to WPS. This same acts is applied by china to show its displeasure in whats happening in Taiwan. So alam nyo na.
Tama naman ang strategies ng pilipinas. Nagkakaproblema ang AFP sa tactical level. One obvious reason is they misread the CCG reaction to the recent supply mission. What I see it, the AFP does not do their homework. Why I said it? China is doing this to us time and time again but the AFP have not learned their lesson. Another reason is, we talked to much and less action Therefore, the problem in WPS is not China but us
We should prepare by whatever means available to us as a united Pilipino for any contingency and form of warfare facing us. In a grey area form of warfare which our government should know and how to respond appropriately, we should be able to respond and hold our ground until our allies support for us come, for this form of war. When an attack with the use of axes, knives, lance, as arms (old time weapons but also use when bullets run run out in today's war), however we define what it is and why it occurred should be considered as an armed attack for reasons well known to the attackers who are drilled about it in accordance with their party's goal of occupying the almost whole of South Sea China and West Philippine Sea, short of shooting war. We should realized tat at the moment the Chinese Coast Guard, under the People's Armed Police which in turn is under the China Military Commission together with the People Liberation Army and the People's Armed Militia, is primarily tasked to wage the maritime grey area warfare of China. The People's Armed Maritime Militia works in tandem with the Chinese Coast Guard. The PLA Navy ships are deployed in the background as ready support to the Chinese Coast Guard when circumstances need for it occur. China will not stop in their political pursuit of their aims. China already indoctrinated her people that the area covered by the nine dash line (South China Sea and West Philippine Sea) is China's territory and all others territorial claims by the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam. If the grey area form of warfare will not succeed, will China resort to shooting war as second phase to achieve her aim or will it back track without fear of domestic backlash from her people who were made to believe wrongfully that the nine dash line is a heritage. Still we must be prepared as a united people and realistically, rely in whatever degree even too much, on the active support of our allies, particularly of USA, Japan, Australia, and other western nations to support us in whatever form of war that is or will be brought to the Philippines.
Why is our military seemingly trying to defend passage of chinese warships in the Sulu Sea BY SAYING THAT SHIPS USUALLY USE THAT sea for passage? Civilian ships? Yes; but battle shils? 4 of them all at tne same time. It looks like to me more like an invasion. Just my own thoughts.
GARBAGE interviewing-hosting skills. This isn't 'challenging' the merits of someone's ideas as much as it is "yeah but why NOT the other side's argument", as if these shallow counterpoints aren't already answered and obvious with all the news the past year or so (even longer). Tapos puro interrupting the guests before they can even complete a singe point
nandyan nman si UNCLE SAM, nandyan nman ang ASEAN NATION, nandyan nman ang G7. kailan kp tatayo sa sarili mong paa pilipinas para ipaglaban ang bansa mo at teritoryo
I think that Richard guy is utterly delusional without thinking what's the status of our armed forces. We can't do diplomacy because China doesn't deal with it. We can't do diplomacy talks by ourselves. 😂😂
In digongs time fishermans where able to fish, and no agreggation with chinese coast guard see what happened now. Tumigil ka nga heydarian ikaw unahin mo makipag giyera
Pag nakuha ng China ang WPS sa Pilipinas dapat alisin na rin natin ang MDT at palakasin natin ang AFP para irespeto tayo ng bang bansa, asa lang lagi tayo sa US kaya ganito ang situation natin mukhang kawawa.
It's not only for the sake of Philippines but for other countries passages. If China be in control they will control what should be an open passageway to other countries. Many countries will be affected not only Philippines...
Panahon ni duterte wala naman tong aggressiveness ng China, pero ngayon sobrang galit na galit na ang China, gusto nang makipag gyera. I think bbm needs to deviate from his recent foreign policy. Back to unilateral negotiation with china

Amazing Richard H. Host was absolutely gaslighting our response.
South China Sea is not only a Philippine issue. It is an issue that concerns the whole world to keep it open and free. Why does the Philippine shoulder the whole burden of defending it? What’s wrong with working with the US, Japan, Australia, and other like minded nations in its defense?
it's already underway.
there is nothing wrong the problem is with some of our countrymen that does not want to defend the country
Patrick was simply steel-manning the argument, though he became upset by the gaslighting statement and took it rather personally.
Mr patrick patapusin mo n muna na matapos ung sinasbi ni mr llamas do not interrupt po pra maintindihan nmin.
Tv5 pro china mga salim may ari na chinese din
terrible latency
Ang galing ni Mr Ronald Llamas, kasama na yung mga history sa ibang bansa kaugnay sa labanan ng China at ibang bansa.
As a Filipino American, don't rely too much at United States. US has its own interest. Most Americans think America first. Kaya mas maganda na palakasin natin ang hukbong sandatahan ng Pilipinas para hindi masyadong nabubully and stop government corruption. Dyan lang uunlad ang Pilipinas.
it's corruption that ills this country not its relation with our oldest allies mind you.
I agree.. but don't make the Americans look bad.. Practically every nation depends on her, imperialist or not.
Philippine military budget $5b per year. China military budget, at least $250b per year. Logic says Philippines need the U S and your sentiment is foolish.

First time i like how richard, and ronald did good here
Patrick is being very naive. Philippines to stand up alone to China is like a 5 year old telling a full grown man do what he doesn’t want to do.
Sir Patrick and Sec Llmas did explained well, very comprehensive and informative interpolation...Thnak you to all of you.
Patrick is showing Poor journalism
Richard, Ronald i- boycott na ninyo Storycon. You are supposed to be guests to provide your opinion not to be argued/debated with by the host.
Tama!!!
Panira si Patrick Paez. Sana it was just Bok, Richard, and Sec
I love the way the conversation goes . . . dialogical makikita mo ang punto de vista ng bawat isa . We have a long way to go kailangan talaga ang maging mapag-analiza sa lahat ng nangyayari sa ating bansa. Salute for the four of you. 🙏🙏🙏
llamas has the deeper grasp of the issue.
buti na lang wala na si Amy😂 Good conversation with Edu Mansanas😂
I hope Patrick’s questions are really for academic discussion rather than undermining our government’s efforts. 😔
Yes. Ang strong ng leanings
This Patrick guy pretends as if he doesn't know what has happened and what is happening between the Philippines and China with regards to the wps. His arguments don't make any sense when confronted with the facts.
I love this,very good conversation ❤😂
This conversation is a WOW!!!
‘M for you Sec. Ronald Llamas…your ideas are correct.

I agree to Ronal, Let us develop all our manufacturing industry.
If we do not defend at last resort sierra madre, we will not be defending anything in the future, if you do not value sovereignty its gone forever
I hope they would let each of them finish talking no.
sabat ng sabat si Patrick. Patapusin mo muna yung nagsasalita please! Napuputol yung importanteng point nung nagsasalita
If we host American nuclear capability, we won't even have to think about MDT. US will properly defend those waters and Filipinos reap the dividend.
For all we know, there’s probably a U S Trident subs loaded with nuclear weapons in the Philippine waters at this time
We never had this problem with china when US based were in subic and clark.
The question is posed as if the Philippines has any other choice. The only reason why the CCP hasn't fully occupied the Philippines' EEZ is because of the its alliance and MDT with the USA.
Korek!!!!!
Agree with sir ronald
Such act is tantamount to a eco fin sanction which china is more vulnerable and sensitive to.
Mabuhay po sir ronald and the gang.
Great exchange.

The WPS and we should not be dictated how to defend our interest.
Nakakahingal pala manood ng conversation😂 🤣 Nakakapiga ng utak😆

Now you're arguing with each other which is china's goal.
