Only 270 nautical miles from Palawan, Philippines and 582 nautical miles from Hainan island , now who have the right ?

We dont want war but we will defend our territory at all cost. No to Insik Kwakang

THANKS A LOT CRUX! THE BEST NEWS I EVER HEARD, YOU DISCUSS IT WELL👍👍 FROM PHILS.. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

before its 9 dashline now 10 dashline tomorrow 20 dashline...😅

We just want the Chinese out of our Exclusive Economic Zone in the West Phlippine Sea which is part of our sovereign territorial rights under UNCLOS. The US should maintain the imposition of freedom of navigation and overflight rights in the SCS and not let China control this international body of water.

Prayers for the Philippines. ❤

why are you calling it TITU? it's PAGASA island. that's not own by China.

🇻🇳 🇵🇭 are the only asean nation that decide to stand tall while the rest decide to kowtow to winnie the pooh for a few loans

China built it in the Philippines exclusive economic zone! It has to go sooner or later!

Open Clark AFB 🇺🇸💪

The Philippines is highly regarded for its exemplary standards in Taxation, Armed forces administration as well as Financial Administration, this includes exports and imports amongst countries. Its expertise in the said areas brought the Philippines to its foundation of truth, exercise of light and enlightenment. KJV 1611 Preserved.

Learn the lessons of WW 1 and WW2. Millions people died. On both sides no one is exempted from death

Together we stand, divided we fall,,;;one stick is weak,binded sticks are strong!!!

100 dashline encompassing the whole Pacific Oceean 🤣🤣

If our president wants to fight for our rights in the west phillipine Sea then we Filipinos are always ready for this.

China should be mindful before it will be too late everyone loves freedom

We are known for our genuine smiling faces and hospitality but behind all that our history has proven time again that we never back down from a fight. We don’t want war but we will never back down if we have to.

Dwarves are brave and patience. that combined communists china, rusia, & north korea during korean war were defeated by dwarves. When communists sees no match to dwarves, the communis open peace agreement. However, dwarbes dont like war. They are happy and peaceful life

What?? Aren't water cannons ready at this time?? 😂😂😂

Well said.

Thank you for bringing this up. Ch needs a reality check that they don't own the West Ph Sea and majority of South China Sea.

Where and when all nations around world to be united

Bombay hindi yan thitu island. That's Kalayaan/freedom island.

That would be quick and decisive. Show us.

Crynese.. shock😱.by nightmares they created..

We are pilipino are against war with china we need peace not wat

The Philippines has 7000 over islands not developed without funds.

How ironic why Indonesia 🇮🇩 and Thailand 🇹🇭 quiet to this issues, I bet they are supporting China

#greedychina #greedyxijinping

I wonder what does Chinese citizen think about this. Surely, they know how it feels to be. Treated like this because of the wars before.

XI JIN PING BRUTAL AGGRESSION IS OVER!! FILIPINOS WILL NOT YIELD !!! 🇵🇭🇯🇵🇦🇨🇨🇮🇺🇲🔥🔥🔥😎

China is crying now

Lets get it on

We don't war mr xi jing ping but when necessary we will assert our freedom.. We tested by our previous conquerors but we toughly fight our freedom.. Youmay take our lives but you will never never take our FREEDOM.. Filipinos fight to the death in the name of our freedom.. Sa Manlulpig Di Pasisiil..

Its name is Pag-Asa island, I think Thithu island is named by vetnam.

Perfect. Keep going Marcos.

i want to be a citizen of Pag-asa island

Before he was elected, Marcos was telling the US to get out because it would cause unnecessary conflict in the region. Now he knows in order to hold onto power, he needs to take a hawkish stance. otherwise, a certain country will see to it that he is thrown out.

Getting ready not readying.

yes philippine ready anytime

#battleofyultong🇵🇭

What happen when there is US JAPAN AUSTRALIA AND PHILIPPINE ships in Phil. EEZ? where is the aggressive and bullying CCG? So, it is an effective strategy to counter a bullying country who harrasses only a small country in her territorial waters. Pls continue with joint maritime in Phil. EEZ. And explore gas and oil with allies cooperation

🇵🇭🇺🇸🇯🇵

Let's get it on!!!

Singapore, the smartest country, as well as the most successful one in ASEAN, has been playing smart geopolitical balancing games between super powers for decades, for the maximum benefit of the country, without being squeezed and sacrificed as cannon fodder by the US or China. Filipino people always look at the success of Singapore with envy, and wonder why they can't replicate the best practices in their homeland and why their country is still deeply trapped in US colony mentality without a clear way out. Truth hurts. A smart leader plays smart geopolitical games and invites American and Chinese companies to build factories in order to generate jobs and increase revenue, while a clueless leader easily gets emotional like a kid, often is played by geopolitical players as chess pieces, invites foreign military to build bases in order to generate tensions and increase the risk of conflicts, and sacrifices the country's development and trade. Japan and S. Korea can sit down for negotiations and cooperations, despite of their long time disputes over the sovereignty of the Liancourt Rocks in the sea between them. That is political wisdom and diplomatic maturity on full display. Other countries such as China and the Philippines can definitely learn from S. Korea and Japan to manage their difference on South China Sea, Taiwan, MILF or whatever, and develop their relationship.

Philippines Look at the Ukraine and think 100%

Don't forget about Duterte-Xi secret "gentlemen's agreement"

Support philipines from india

As a person outside all the politics, I see avoidance of an all out physical war. All involved parties are carefully trying not to incite unnecessary bloodshed. The war although has changed, this isnt about who kills more but who can take more.

Our god protect us even we are small country 😊

see you in the jungle Tofus and Dimsums...

Excellent yes

November 1899, 11 nations Coalition negotiator Baroness Robert Hart and Gustav Detring already told War Council negotiators of Q'ing dynasty not to do anything stupid, once they walked out, Chinese declared war on Coalition, learn history, war is inevitable.

China wouldn't give up a SQ mm inside 9 dash lines. CHINA IS READY. 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳

And america is more than happy to support the Philippines. More for commercial than security reasons. The arms industry is making a killing the last few years with so many wars being waged worldwide.

Thitu/Pag-asa Island has an advantage in pressing its claim in that it has an actual civilian settlement there.

Im a Filipino in Metro Manila. We don't want War with China. We want to do business with China! So to all Chinese military and political warmongers, they should think twice and choose wisely.

Can you give the thita islands and the rest of the 100 islands that PH Annexed/stole from Vietnam . PH president decree and they used military force

Looks like America has sent a bunch of goons to kill the world's greatest wrestler.

It was a Western country, rather than any of China's neighbors, that was the first to challenge China's sovereignty over the Nanshan Islands. In 1933, France asserted its claim to and "occupied" nine islands and reefs of the Nansha Islands. Japan sent troops to occupy the Nansha Islands in 1939 during its war of aggression against China. As the World Anti-Fascist War and the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression progressed, China, the U.S. and the UK jointly issued the Cairo Declaration in 1943 and the Potsdam Proclamation in 1945, making clear that all the territories Japan had stolen from the Chinese shall be restored to China and laying the foundation for the establishment of a new post-war international order.

It is not Tihtu Island, we called it, the “PAG-ASA” part of EEZ of our country, Philippines 🇵🇭 please respect the Arbitral Ruling. #AminAngWestPhilippineSea

China is about to become a fried wonton....can you say "mushroom cloud"?

Marcos is surprising ,he seems to be a man who has integrity and guts

Territorial disputes in the South China Sea involve conflicting island and maritime claims in the South China Sea by several sovereign states, namely the People's Republic of China (PRC), Taiwan (Republic of China/ROC), Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam. While others are negotiating amongst themselves, only Philippines allow former colonial powers to get involved. It also send crafts to the disputed territories and build a military base on a shipwreck deliberately grounded on the reefs.

3:50 Although the Tribunal was established by a United Nations convention, it is not an “organ” of the United Nations.

Philippines better have a hard look at Ukraine before the jump on the American bandwagon 😮😊

Los filipinos desesperados por convertirse en los ucranianos del lejano oriente.

Why, is there anything wrong with preparing for war? There is all the more wrong with not preparing for one. What the Philippines is doing is improving defense capabilities, not provoking or firing, which the Constitution prohibits as the Philippines renounces war as an instrument of national policy.

The Second Thomas Shoal is the real reason of most of the conflict. China reason it out that it is because of the delivery of comstructions supplies to the area. But in Thitu island(Pag Asa). the agressive level of harassment is lower even though there are even deliveries of not just construction supplies but also delivery of construction heavy equipments which are even delivered by Phil. Naval ships unlike Second Thomas Shoal were only civilian ships are being used.

cannon fodders be ready 😂😂😂

“The NEXT UKRAINE “ 👏

its not the only way There ar other ways. Just politics and people are not ready yet to take them

sinong wawasak sa pilipinas? sariling corruption, o ibang bansang gutom sa kapangyarihan at interes? abangan.

CRUX take note: Thitu island is not a chinese island. It has been occupied by the Philippines from 1974 to the present day. The first permanent residents started arriving in the mid-1990s. It was not claimed by china then!

There's no need for war. Nostradamus already knows who won. 😂😂😂

Schultz of Germany will be the big chicken in the room & back as far away from China like he did Russia.

United we stand! Mabuhay PH, US, JP!

Filipinos are known for being kind ,,happy an generous people... But dont let them angered and bullied... They can deeply fight for their country....we love Philippines...

We have our treaty with America which means US can attack anyone who attacks Philippines while we Filipinos can only defend ourselves. It is not in our law to start a war. Our law states that we are to Defend our territory only that’s why we need to get ready with everything in combat. Rediness is preparedness.

Maybe china made a mistake but it doesn't mean filipinos is not ready to listen about china wants to tell.

WE FILIPINO CITIZEN, ARE ☮️ PEACE LOVING PEOPLE. WE DON'T LIKE WAR, BUT IF ANY FOREIGN FORCE, INTER TO OUR OWN TERRITORY, WE ARE FORCE TO DEPEND OUR OWN PROPERTY. GREED IS THE WORST SIN.

I smell gunpowder.

That is “Pag-asa Island” and not thitu

We don't want to go to war with weak leader and have many issues, we are not afraid to die for our country but we want peaceful way to solve or settle disputes, only God is the hope of the Filipino people

Good boy!

Pag asa island not titu!!!!!

We are not preparing for war with china. We are just sending a clear message that we CANNOT and NEVER accept the barbie map😂😂😂😂😂

This weren't supposed to happen but when duterte had secret meeting with xi

Why do we focus on china when there are 5 countries are also bullying the Philippines?

PEACE/PROSPERITY/UNITY

Like these crux reports, but please drop the combover haircut

Well we must be ready, if China will invade Taiwan. We need to repatriate at save hundred of thousads of Filipino workers in Taiwan. And we know that China will also attack the Philippines and use the country against the West who will help Taiwan in case. That is why the Philippine President doing everything to boost the military and cooperate with our allies such as Japan, Australia and the US we also have India on our side as they frankly showed support the Phillippines in the recent water cannon attack by the Chinese Coast guard on our resupply ship. India show support for our country and they also allow the Philippines to purchase Brahmos missiles from India

"IN TIME OF PEACE, PREPARE FOR WAR." As stated in the constitution, the Philippines is a defensive country.

Latest update ties with China important for India issues need to be urgently addressed,the world cannot ignore China it would make the world a very dangerous place

USA needs needs to rallies for more 🤡 others than NATO, EU, G7, Aukus, 5 Eyes and QUAD 🤡 just to confront China. *Are you sure adding Marcos Pinoy can counter China* ? 🤣🤣🤣

No military upgrade but internal politics during the time of AQUINO, RAMOS, ESTRADA, ARROYO, AQUINO. Now how will you defend?

A pawn being readied to fight China😔😭 May God Almighty protect the Philippines, the only Catholic Christian country in the South East Asia🙏

my good sir , india will deploy its 20,000 permanent troops in taiwan

Good Luck!😂😂😂

Nine dash line and then 10 dash line tomorrow 11 dash line
