That's the problem when the government cannot control the population. Many say that a big population is an asset, however, in the Philippines, it's a liability because it is not self-sustainable. We need other countries to give us jobs and feed us.
The relationship between the US and the Philippines deserves to be expanded bc both sides have worked hard, together, for over a 100 years, despite setbacks, to be colleagues.
Yeah like when they said they'd liberate us from Spain only to become our new colonizers. Or freeing us from colonization right after Manila was utterly destroyed because they used it as a battleground in WW2 so that we would be the ones to do the rebuilding. And then when we asked them loan, they placed a very one-sided clause under the Bell Trade act.
Marco Rubio red lines to China 🇨🇳: *1. Taiwan:* is a sovereign country, not a province of China. *2. South China Sea:* Obey UNCLOS and leave SCS. *3. Human rights:* Stop genocide and human rights abuses in Tibet, Xijiang, South Monglia, and Hong Kong. *4. IP thefts:* Stop doing it in any form. *5. Unfair Trading:* 60% tariffs on any Chinese goods either from China or going through sea ports funded by China. *6. Interference:* All forms must be stopped.
Even your beloved Us doesn't recognize Taiwan as country As if other countries obey that... Evidence please about the "genocide" and "human rights violations" ? Even other countries does have that too... Us has a lot of theft Then look at the economy now especially to the Us puppet country the economy is drop.. Continue that please and say thank you to daddy biden... Us is very good in interfering they should stop
Your ignorance is showing. The EEZ is a maritime entitlement - not a sovereign right. No one recognises the Filipino sovereignty claims in the Spratlys either.
@@Blixey-r9z Actually your ignorance is the only hallmark here, easily no country who have a claim on that portion started attacking everyone and claiming it their little lake.
*International laws* are very clear on the South China Sea: - parts of it belong to some ASEAN countries, including Philippines 🇵🇭, - the rest of it is the international water, - no part of it belongs to China🇨🇳 or Taiwan🇹🇼.
There is a lot of misunderstanding and misinformation about international law and the South China Sea. Below is something to help clear up the misconceptions perpetuated by the media and the Filipino government. I hope people will take time to read and digest it. This is important because the mistaken beliefs about international law and Philippines territory are significant obstacles to peaceful resolution of the SCS dispute. Thanks in advance: At the 2020 East Asia Summit, China’s foreign minister Wang Yi clearly reiterated: 1. China’s commitment to UNCLOS. 2. Denied claiming the entirety of waters or seabed within the U-shaped line. 3. Constrained China’s claims to only the maritime features within the U-shaped line and the maritime entitlements of those features under UNCLOS. As a matter of international law, this means that China position is aligned with the legal principle of mare liberum and the conventions laid out in UNCLOS. The claims are not excessive and identical to Taiwan’s claim; however, Western media’s narrative continues to distort and portray China’s claim to be excessive. The UNCLOS treaty is about the maritime entitlements (eg. territorial waters and EEZ) generated by undisputed sovereign territory. The UNCLOS treaty was never meant to be used to resolve disputes over territorial sovereignty. The South China Sea is a dispute about sovereignty. Just as one cannot build a house on a poor foundation, one cannot construct sovereignty claims from a treaty (UNCLOS) about maritime entitlements generated from disputed territory. The Philippines is abusing the rights and procedures under UNCLOS. This delegitimises the treaty and erodes the fundamental principles of international law. Sovereignty disputes were settled by military or economic might until the end of the 19th century. It is the hope, after 2 world wars, that diplomatic negotiations or international law will be used to settle territorial disputes. However, customary international law requires BOTH parties’ consent for arbitration over sovereignty disputes; a few sovereignty disputes have since been settled by arbitration (eg. Pedra Branca & Middle Rocks). Citing the 2016 UNCLOS arbitration opinion as the basis for Philippines’ territorial claims contravenes that fundamental legal principle of state consent for arbitration of sovereignty issues. Law-fare and distorted narratives in the court of public opinion will not get the Philippines anywhere; it will only harden China’s position and provoke more physical confrontation on the high seas. If proximity was the determining factor of sovereignty, then explain Phú Qúoc Island, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, The Falklands, Gibraltar, Greek Islands in the Eastern Mediterranean off the coast of Turkey, Puerto Rico, The US and British Virgin Islands, Pedra Branca … and many more examples. Despite sovereignty disputes over maritime features, the freedom of commercial navigation and overflight enjoyed by all states in the South China Sea under international law has never been threatened. The South China Sea currently contains some of the safest and freest sea lanes in the world, with more than 100,000 ships and one third of the world's maritime trade passing through every year. Over 60% of China's foreign trade and energy imports pass through the South China Sea; peace and stability in the South China Sea is as vital to China as any other country. China’s interests lie in ensuring that these sea lanes remain safe and accessible to all. The UK & the US themselves blatantly defied the UN and ICJ rulings that affirm Mauritius’ sovereignty over Diego Garcia (which the UK took by force) for many years; they only recently negotiated a controversial settlement with the Mauritian government that excluded the original islanders right to return home or compensation; the UK and US negotiated another 99 years of occupation of Diego Garcia against the recommendations of the UN and ICJ court. Filipinos should also note the US herself has not ratified the UNCLOS treaty. China is not the first or the only claimant have reclaimed/ built artificial islands. For decades, the Philippines and Vietnam were the most active in building artificial islands in the area, but from 2014 to 2016 China's construction activity outpaced them. The American policy of containment ensured that the spotlight was focussed on China’s island reclamation activities. Vietnam is currently quietly reclaiming/ expanding islands in the Spratlys. A pragmatic solution to South China Sea disputes embraced by several ASEAN members is to shelve their sovereignty disputes (ie agree to disagree) and pursue agreements of cooperation over South China Sea resources through quiet diplomatic negotiations. This approach, initially suggested by Deng Xiao Peng in 1960, has achieved some progress between competing claimant states. An ASEAN-flavoured analogy to explain the SCS dispute: 2 neighbours with mango trees are arguing about a fallen mango on the ground. They cannot prove which tree the mango fell from. Consider the 3 scenarios below: 1. The neighbours fight, accidentally smash the mango and no one gets to taste it; 2. The neighbours stop arguing and sit down to share the mango in peace; 3. One neighbour decides to ask the village crime boss for help. The crime boss’ thugs take the mango forcibly from the other neighbour. However, the crime boss likes the mango so much he decides to keep the mango, collect protection money and tax all future mango harvests from both trees for himself. The body of international law that is used to settle sovereignty disputes is not described or prescribed in the UNCLOS treaty. A fundamental principle governing the international law on sovereignty disputes is that of state consent. Hence, it was beyond the PCA’s jurisdiction to arbitrate on the sovereignty of the Spratlys or define the boundaries of the Philippines’ EEZ. Under customary international law, sovereignty is determined by factors like discovery, historical title, effective occupation, official acts, official documents, international treaties, official maps, acquiescence, abandonment etc. Geographical location and proximity are often not material considerations when deciding sovereignty disputes. There are many examples of islands and territories that fly a distant sovereign flag from its adjacent neighbours. There are many examples of this: Phú Qúoc Island, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, The Falklands, Gibraltar, Greek Islands in the Eastern Mediterranean off the coast of Turkey, Puerto Rico, The US and British Virgin Islands, Pedra Blanca….. etc. The 2008 ICJ case of Pedra Blanca and Middle Rocks illustrates this point. Pedra Branca is a cluster of high tide rocks with a lighthouse built on it; and Middle Rocks are high tide rocks that did not have any man-made structures at the time of litigation. These rocks lie in closer proximity to Malaysia than Singapore; Malaysia even held the historical title to the rocks via the Johor Sultanate. However, after Singapore gained its independence from Malaya in 1965, Singapore continued to occupy, maintain and administer the lighthouse on Pedra Branca for many decades without objection from the Malaysians. Both Singapore and Malaysia consented to submit the sovereignty dispute to the ICJ. The ICJ awarded the sovereignty of Pedra Branca to Singapore while the Middle Rocks were awarded to Malaysia. The legal principles (acquiescence & abandonment) that established the transference of sovereignty/title of Pedra Branca from Malaysia to Singapore had nothing to do with proximity or UNCLOS.
@@Blixey-r9z China must leave the West Philippine Sea and respect Phil. EEZ. Ccp should stop provoking other nations. Ccp has more lands inside China than it can manage, There is absolutely no need for the ccp to project their incompetence outside China. Ccp must not use war to cover up their robberies and failed policies toward the Chinese population. Ccp should gracefully handover power to a more competent people to rule over China. They were given the chance to rule, It's high time to let others have a go. They must give other Chinese a fair chance of ruling China.
