We will fight what is ours. Would you let your neighbors exploit your territorial fishing grounds? I think no.

Chinese were already infiltrating since the beginning of Philippines history. From rags to riches as they call it, Chinese are the most entrepreneur-building community in the Philippines. They started from scraps to airlines, breweries, and big industrial businesses. We cannot deny these Chinese stirs the Philippines’ economy, may it prospers or not. If these Chinese are developing on these islands why not the Philippines will also do the same. Instead of stopping China why not collaborate with them and make a deal. We have been sharing their business appetite decades back why not now? If the Philippines government is not capable of exploring and exploiting those vast oil and other mineral deposit in these islands (disputed?) then it is not wise to hinder them. Let them work and we take our share is the best remedy. Peace not war. business not territorial.
