Chinese vessels likely to stay near Pag-asa Island, says Esperon

The vessels were likely deployed from Zamora Reef, just beyond the horizon from Pag-asa Island. China has reclaimed the formerly submerged reef and turned it into a military base, complete with a 3-kilometer airstrip worthy of fighter jets, and a harbor for vessels. "They're still there," Esperon added, referring to about 30 to 60 Chinese vessels lingering near Pag-asa, which is inhabited by around 250 Filipino civilians.

"We suspect, and it's really confirmed by several other reports, that these Chinese foreign vessels are actually Chinese militias doing not just fishing but also intelligence gathering for China," Zarate added.

Logical question. Can we or are we ready to fight China? I dont think so.

bakit sa pinaslang nagagawa ng china yang ganyan?

Duts government approved it! He loves China so quite nalang tyo..wawa tlga future ng kids natin.

The government knows and they are not doing anything about it ...

Nakakaiyak 🥺 DDS ano na?

Alam ko ang solution ni Duterte dyan - SISIHIN nang todo si Noynoy at si Trillanes. Basta mataas ang SWS rating nya, walang problema.

pagaaralan pa daw ni Duts kng totoo ito🤦🤦🤦

Hoy AFP, sabihin niyo kay dutertraydor yan. Wag sa amin.

Why is AFP only helplessly watching?

Ano na mga DDS. Tina-taehan na ulo ni Dutae o?!

That is friendship according to Duterte.

parang squatter lang yan..kapag nakapag patayo na ng bahay wala na magawa gobyerno kung di sunugin na lang para mapaalis mga squatter..😂

CLEARLY DOTARDTE’S “NO CARE ATTITUDE” IS ENCOURAGING CHINA TO OCCUPY MORE TERRITORIES WITHIN OUR 12 NAUTICAL MILES SOVEREIGNTY. WITHOUT A DOUBT THE PHILIPPINES IS NOW DOOMED TO BE A PART OF CHINA AS OUR DERANGED PRESIDENT IS BOUND TO DO.

di ko naman binoto si du30..pero sa tingin ko dapat nung nagsisimula pa lang magtayo ang Tsina ng bases dyan nung panahon ni Aquino dapat ginawa na natin lahat ng magagawa natin..kasi kung dati nga di natin napatigil at napaalis eh ngayon pa kaya na buo ng militar nila dyan.😂

Eh di masaya. PH province of China

So ok lang kay Dutete?

I think the jetski came with free food and rights
