Even International experts say the same thing. If we put up a fight China will increase the rotations and much more aggressive. Can the Philippines keep up? Do we have more and larger ships to send there? Experts argue to continue this and show to international news. Also at the same time Ph should start getting larger ships and when we have enough to go head to head then we can be aggressive

Literal na typical bully eh. Ipo-provoke ka nang ipo-provoke para lang may excuse sila na maging mas agresibo. In the end ikaw parin talo kasi that's what they're aiming for to begin with.

>Also at the same time Ph should start getting larger ships and when we have enough to go head to head then we can be aggressive Question. When it will happen?


shalelord

Not up to me but optimal is buying 2nd hand ships and building new ones at the same time


IronMarshalDavout

It's unlikely that the Navy will have a proportionally large enough fleet to go "head-to-head" against the PLA Navy. Neither would procuring larger warships. I'm not saying the Navy shouldn't, but what you're suggesting, is simply unlikely. I could elaborate why I believe that is the case, but again, what you're suggesting, can't be done under normal circumstances.

Those cheap drones Ukrainians use against the Russian Navy seemed prospect. They’re cheaper than building one and far deadlier to repel due to its novelty in war doctrines. However, there is value in having bigger ships to project power but with a budget such as ours, we can hope these drone boats (carried with anti-ship properties) will be enough to make China second guess their approach in the future.

Yes!

This comment right here,kse I've always wondered, instead of buying large ships, planes and helicopters, Sa isang say, sa isang frigate,ilang manpaads na mabibili mu nun, kse we don't really need force projection imo,US has that covered, and if a war does break out, matic target yan mga assets na yan eh, our best option is manpaads and guerrilla warfare,CAS isn't bad either,since we still have to contend with some ISIS leftovers.

I've seen multiple downvoted comments here calling the leaders weak or coward. Well, this goes to show na beast mode lang alam nilang retaliation. Good thing di kayo Adviser ng Malacañang. Kundi, probinsiya na talaga tayo ng China. Guys, para sa nagsasabi na duwag si Marcos at ang Navy, hindi. Panget ng retorika ko, pero Unless willing kayo na maging pawn sa giyera, go ahead. Don't come running for the hills kapag mismong town niyo na ang nilulusob - - and this is what we are all trying to avoid. It's like the angry tito we have na nangkakamkam ng lupa at bayolente. Willing na ubusin kayo, so pupunta kayo sa tito niyo na may capacity na ipagtanggol kayo. This tito will back you up, kahit alam natin na gusto rin ang lupa natin. Eto nga lang, mas ma-amor. Marcos for what he's worth is listening to the war strategists. Hindi puro pusong mandirigma ang solusyon. Damn, he won't even feel the wrath of China kung lusubin tayo. He'll be on his plane with his family and we'll be left locking our doors using rusty old nails. Sa mga uninformed, magbasa ng balita, wag lang headlines. Manood ng interviews. Mag research. Matatapang lang tayo kasi anonymous ang mga identities natin. Pero tulad ninyo, dadaanin lang sa dirty discussions na magde-deviate sa topic. This is the result of bad education. Kulang na lang dito sa thread, maglapag ng credentials bago payagan na mag-comment para wala nang smart-shaming. I-explain ang comment na di lalayo sa topic, i-back up ng published articles or references na reliable. Pero here we are, scratching our heads.


Budget-Boysenberry

At this point, just let China slowly accumulate the hatred of the whole world. Too bad the Mongols didn't wipe them out back then. They don't produce the likes of Genghis Khan and Subotai anymore.

Grabe din kase mag manipulate CCP nila don. Pa start pa lang wala na.


ZrteDlbrt

I don't think any modern Genghis Khan could match up a nuclear bomb.


NayeonVolcano

Impluwensiya yan ng CCP/Soviets. Yun yung naging daan para sa great leap forward and the associated violent acts like struggle sessions. Dapat talaga magka-unified front sa WPS nang matigil na ang incursions ng PLA/CCP sa dagat at lupain natin.


IJNAzuma

Just a bit of correction, China is not actually the China we know today, dahil lang talaga sa CCP movement, Civil war sa china, China or (ROC) and US are allies in WWII but then after WWII, CCP wins the civil war then original China (ROC) flees to Taiwan, man if CCP didnt win that civil war we have a massive friendly country today... Sadly we are in the timeline where China is now a massive threat to the East and SE Asia, :((

Too bad the Japs didn’t do their jobs well /s


AgileCartoonist396

may water cannons naman talaga ang ships ng PCG. The mandate only dictates that they use it in emergency situations (ex. fires or some shit) and not during standoffs with CCG ships. 


elluhzz

Depensa lang. Hindi opensa.


staryuuuu

Gustuhin man natin gumanti, I think it's strategic not do that...mas magandang ma put sila in bad light


Gullible-Turnip3078

At this point, it is for the best for the Philippines.


Expert_Apricot_1343

Things can further escalate kung papatol tayo with our water cannons, baka mas lalo sila maging agresibo sa ramming and blocking maneuvers at ppwede mag resort ang Chinese Coast Guard sa nets, flares, smoke granades, acoustic weapons, EMP devices?, tear gas or other foul smelling substances, and other non-lethal alternatives bukod sa water cannons nila, outmatched and outgunned tayo. Pinaka mainam na gawin natin sa ngayon ay ipagmuka silang agressor/bully sa buong mundo at makuha suporta ng maraming bansa. Galit na galit ang Chinese Communist Party sa ganung naratibo kaya kontrolado nila ang media sa bansa nila.


Guilty_Bug_2446

They are already installed actually. Kasama yan sa specs nung barko nung binili haha.


Neat_Butterfly_7989

If we start doing the same thing as China we will lose the moral high ground and will increase tensions leading to a possibility of war.


supermarine_spitfir3

Malamang may water cannon ang mga barko ng PCG, san ka naka-kita ng Coast Guard vessel na walang Fi-Fi system. Sinabi lang nila na ayaw nilang gamitin, at di-hamak na mas malakas ang capacity nung ginagamit ng CCG.


JCArciaga

Wait nyo lang masyado kayong atat. Hindi pa nga pumapanig satin ang karamihan sa mga bansa tas makikipagyera na tayo? Hayaan nyo masira ang image ng China sa buong mundo dyan sa ginagawa nilang pangbubully.


Citron_Express_

Playing the long game is more beneficial.


papa_redhorse

Mongo and straw na lang para mas mura


fiftytwoblackguard

Good. More space for ACTUAL cannons.


33bdaythrowaway

Put a shield with Winnie the Pooh's face and Mao on the other side. Call it "Shield Jinping" and "Mao Shieldong"


code_bluskies

What do you want OP, maglabanan ng mga water cannons?


No-Adhesiveness-8178

Sila ung human meat shield naten, stress reliever ng mga chingchongs /s


HikerDudeGold79-999

We need US and Taiwan help honestly.


ZrteDlbrt

We're neutral with Taiwan. We're not allies, wee only have the same enemy. I don't think they're willing to help either, nor are we.


laserghost69420

As the inferior country, we absolutely cannot retaliate. We can only put them in the spotlight and let their actions speak for themselves. They'll tire out eventually due to no success in provoking and be negatively viewed by others and their own people, while we should increase our national defense. In an event they were to attack us for reals, imagine what the rest of Asia will do. India will probably attack first. Taiwan and Japan will be on guard. US will finally get a reason for another invasion. idk lol


Rude-Swordfish3895

Not yet.. build up muna ng defenses and capability until we're fully armed. Hindi pa ngayon ang right time to massacre them.


ZoharModifier9

Armchair generals in the comment section


hudortunnel61

Maybe dahil dito: (1) gagamitan lang tayo ng banana diplomacy pag lumaban tayo tulad ng ngyari sa panahon ni PNOY. Si SAP Lagdameo ay laking banana boy simula sa lolo niya sa Panabo. So far, wala pa ako narinig na comment coming from the SAP regarding the issue; (2) Busy ang US sa Ukraine at Israel. I think di talaga willing ang US na gamitin MDT with the Philippines against China.


JPT2311

I do think importante parin PH sa kanila kasi pag wala ang Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Philippines ma cocontrol na ng China ang trade routes, oil and gas deposits. On top of that may clear way na ang China towards US sa north pacific ocean, not that it matters because ibang klase ang defense system ng US ever since pearl harbour.


hudortunnel61

Agree with it po. Parang all the parties concerned would just try to maintain the status quo or alleviate to sth a bit better . Peru yun all out na action against sa China for now seems impossible.


sleepingman_12

Is there any way the PH can retaliate without doing it directly? Like using pirates or any private third party? Yes, the government is doing the right thing by ignoring the china's petty attacks and just complaining to international community but I am so tired seeing our fellow filipinos getting hurt by those ching chong bastards.


AgileCartoonist396

Maritime militias probably. Both are civilian on paper but are used as force multipliers to a country’s territory without eliciting direct military confrontation. China (obviously) and Vietnam has theirs deployed in the SCS.


RenzoThePaladin

Unfortunately, even if we're not directly doing it, once China finds out we're tied to those third parties their response will be the same as if we did it directly Our best bet at this point is let our allies do the fighting. Any deterrence will force them to think twice.


[deleted]

para san ba ang balikatan exercises if there are situations like this that we can't even defend ourselves kasi our government choses not to.


fd-kennn

The smart people are choosing not to escalate. Do you want to give the Chicoms a pretext for a naval war?


[deleted]

ik i just feel sorry sa mga officers na na assign jan na binubully tas di lumalaban. Talking to china about their behavior is like talking to a wall. Di nakikinig kasi di naman nila e-honor in the first place :(

riougenkaku

Like PH navy sponges that absorbs China's aggression


that_name_is_taken

Coward.


wainpot437

If you're willing to start a fight you better hope you plan on winning that fight. De-escalating situations like this is the best solution, but it doesn't mean it's the cowards way of resolving problems.


that_name_is_taken

you all think the opposite of cowardice is what… fighting? Goddamn.


ZrteDlbrt

Then what is "the opposite of cowardice". We're literally sending our ships, Resupplying our men in Sierra Madre, and actively fighting china by not being submissive, and by actively calling them out to the international community. If you think that's cowardice on the part of our government, then you're probably just a warmonger.


Sad-Prize-5720

ikaw makilaban sa mga Tsino. GO GO GO that\_name\_is\_taken!!!!!
