And some clarification to our fellow international and local viewers who are not informed or confused. The WPS (West Philippine Sea) is a part of the South China Sea that resides within the Philippine EEZ. WE ARE NOT claiming the entirety of the South China Sea, as we only use the phrase "WPS" to assert our rightful claims within our own EEZ as further reinforced by the 2016 Arbitral Tribunal.

Expressions of support lacking military endorsement is inconsequential. The United States government is not in a position to conscript its citizens into conflict for the benefit of a select few wealthy individuals and corporations over international territories. The United States would never enter into a conflict with China over the Philippines' contested territories, similar to its non-involvement with Russia over Crimea, Donbass and other Ukrainian territories, or the regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia in Georgia, nor in reaction to the slow encroachment on Georgian lands predominantly inhabited by ethnic Georgians. Likewise, the United States will take military action against China regarding Taiwan, aside from temporary sanctions and more arms sales similar to Ukraine.

When I was a kid, I remember hearing all these other kids telling each other wrong info. Then I realized that's why and how people think the USA is wrong because most adults have below avg education. After WW2, the USA owned half the world, and everyone was shocked that the USA let everyone be free instead of colonies. The biggest winner of this freedom was China because USA gave them all the jobs and money and even protected China's oil supply with middle east conflicts. The homeless people are homeless because their jobs and money are in China. Like Energy and Matter, money doesn't get destroyed, it moves from country to country and the country with the most unbalanced growth is China. The USA didn't need oil, that was for everyone else and especially China. China and Russia knows the UN will allow countries to be invaded and taken over like Xinjiang if they have riots so they promote instability around the world, while the USA promotes stability because that's the job all the countries want them to do or they won't exist. Stupidly, China has the most to lose if things change because they are the biggest winner of the status quo.

China aspires to be the hegemon in this region; yet repeatedly, it engages in acts of bullying and harassment towards its neighboring countries, such as Japan, India, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Bhutan. How can it expect to garner support when it fails to foster peaceful coexistence and cooperation? It baffles me since this behavior drives these countries to move towards the West, a consequence entirely of China's own provocations.

Unfortunate that the Filipinos were too professional and were ordered to not use any weapons in case of confrontation. I can guarantee that those soldiers on the boat can easily beat them in a 1:1 combat of knives and stick, as they literally founded and mastered the martial arts for it (Kali) that is used and employed by militaries and police forces across the world. And they usually have first hand experience with this type of confrontation due to the decades of jungle warfare against the communist rebels in their southern islands.

I will disagree. Rather, it is fortunate that these soldiers were able to handicap themselves from the apparent assault, which have saved us from a possible much bigger problem. The unfortunate thing here is they are serving under shortsighted military officials who sent them out there without a plan against these gray zone tactics. The western command should have seen this coming as China is not above nor are they new to such tactics. They have used such tactics in their border skirmish with India, and have used this before on the Vietnamese before they eventually escalated it to actual lead exchange. They should have sent these men with hand weapons mainly for their own protection more than saving face in the media.

According to the Chief of Staff of the Philippine Armed Forces Gen Brawner, and Western Command GOC RAdm Torres Jr, the CCG rammed and boarded the RHIBs. Because of the ramming speed, the CCG's RHIB went over, the Philippine Navy RHIB. The sailor lost his thumb because of the ram when he was bracing onto the boat. The 2 Philippine Navy RHIBs were overwhelmed and squeezed by 8 CCG RHIBs. The CCG also smashed navigation equipment, looted the disassembled and encased rifles (dumping them later), smashed the outboard motor of the Philippine Navy RHIB, and slashed the RHIB with the bladed weapons they brandished against the sailors. None of the Philippine Navy sailors were armed as SOP in the resupply mission to avoid misperception of an armed operation.

The Philippines should strengthen its economy with 25-year timeframe (up to 2049) through opening up some industries currently restricted from 100% American and European FDI equity participation like hydrocarbon exploration and extraction in the Reed Bank and once they are opened to Western investors through a constitutional amendment, the Philippine government should extract 20% hydrocarbon extraction royalties and use them to fund military modernization to prepare itself in an existential war with China.

Further opening up industries to 100% foreign equity participation like natural resource extraction, ownership of public and private lands, domestic corporations, public utilities, practice of professions, educational institutions, mass media, and advertising requires constitutional amendment.

All of this wouldn't happen at all had our stoop¡d senate decided to extend the US bases treaty in the 90s but instead of thinking about the country's geopolitical and long-term interests, they chose to appease the protesting national democrats/NatDems (loud minority leftist nationalists). The withdrawal of US bases led to a power vacuum in the region that China took advantage of. Even countries with large economy, modern military, and matured democracy like Japan and South Korea decided to retain their US bases. And fun fact, the senate president who pushed this disaster in the making lost so badly when he decided to run for president a year later.
