Julian Felipe Reef is Ours!


Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Roque downplays swarming of Chinese ships in Julian Felipe Reef, claiming the feature is 'far away' from Philippine landmass, 'we never possessed that reef.'

MalacaƱang  said the Philippines was never in possession of Julian Felipe Reef, an area in the West Philippine Sea that hit the headlines due to the presence of hundreds of Chinese ships there.

How can we ever hope to assert our position in the WPS if our own officials appear to contradict each other, diminish our claims, or make jokes about an important source of livelihood for many Filipinos. 

Another indicator that the Duterte government lacks coherent, sound and independent foreign policy. Expect contradictions within the regime.

Hindi mo na rin sure to si Locsin. Doble kara kasi minsan.

This is government incompetence in motion.

May bagong ibinebenta ang Duterte admin

Palace: PH never owned Julian Felipe reef. It’s not part of our Exclusive Economic Zone

Is this the script China want them to memorize?

Treason to the max!


Palace spokesman Harry Roque falsely claimed that the Julian Felipe Reef is not within the West Philippine Sea. The NTF-WPS issued a statement in March saying the reef is located around 175 nautical miles west of Bataraza, Palawan and is within the PH EEZ

The nearest landmass to The Julian Felipe Reef is neither China nor Vietnam. It's Palawan, Philippines. 

I manually checked how far Julian Felipe reef is from Palawan using a map. The result was 200.04 miles.

I assume that's land miles so that means, converting it to nautical miles, Julian Felipe reef is well within Philippine EEZ.

Why is Malacanang taking the side of China again? This is very alarming?

Department of Foreign Affairs, Sec. Teodoro Locsin Jr. said  International diplomacy should be left exclusively to the DFA hours after Roque  said that the Julian Felipe Reef wasbeyond the Philippines' exclusive economic zone.

Foreign affairs is the domain of the Executive Branch. But what if there are discordant voices in the EB? Poor us. It used to be legislative v executive but Duterte's confusion has gone down to his men to the detriment of the Filipino people.

"The DFA, therefore, reiterates the demand of the Secretary of National Defense that China immediately withdraws its fishing vessels and maritime assets in the area and vicinity of Julian Felipe Reef and in the Philippines’ maritime zones."



Nagmamarunong ba si Roque o sinasadya na ipamigay na lang ang mga Philippine properties dahil utos ng poong Duterte?

The problem with Harry Roque, he is using the SpOC office to give his opinions on any matters that he wants to. He is supposed to be just a messenger and will speak for the Pres without passing any personal comments. He seems confused of his own role.Ang hitad madaldal pa loro!

Vietnam's Grierson Reef & China's Hughes Reef are close to Julian Felipe Reef. UNCLOS reiterated the intl Law of the Sea, that the shoreline of a country is the basis to measure EEZ. Thus, the Julian Felipe reef being only 175M from PH shoreline is our territory. 

Julian Felipe Reef is 175 nautical miles (324 kilometers) west of Bataraza, Palawan. 

That’s within The Philippines' EEZ (200 nautical miles or 370 km from our shores).

Julian Felipe reef is 1,060km from China. That makes it 3x farther from China than The Phils.

Kung hindi po natin ipaglalaban ang ating Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), lahat po ng nakakulay pula ay mawawala sa atin. Kasama sa malaking karagatan na nakakulay pula ay ang Julian Felipe Reef. Iyan po ang totoo. 

.

Ang layo ng inaangkin ng China. May nagkabayaran na ata kaya ayaw na talaga ipaglaban. 

Sana malabas sa TV ito for public info.

....and the circus continues

Sana merong Tagalog na primer o Frequently Asked Questions re WPS. Malaking hamon na labanan ang disinformation campaign ng rehimeng Duterte sa dikta ng gobyerno ni Xi Jinping. Kabilang ito sa estratehiya ng Sinicization, ang hegemonya ng imperyalistang China.

When China says consensus reached through dialogue means we are not leaving the Julian Felipe reef, nor the West Philippine Sea. 

China will be china, "as far as the eyes can see, and beyond that, historically, is mine."

Kung mawala man sa atin yan, dapat kasuhan ang mga may kagagawan at persona non grata na rin sa Pilipinas ang buong angkan nila.


So what is the next move of this government?  

Do we accept our defeat or CONTINUE TO FIGHT EVEN IF OUR LEADERS DO NOT HAVE FULL CONFIDENCE ON THE REASON FOR FIGHTING?

Evil minded dugyot administration made matters worst for the Filipinos 

Julian Felipe Reed is ours. Period!

Sana nagkamali lang at bawiin kasi it is not true. But knowing this Duterte administration, they would insist on their evil plans for the downfall of the Filipinos.

This case is plain and simple. Duterte doesn't care about the WPS or whatever property within our EEZ. He doesn't care about the millions of Filipino fisher folks who are losing their livelihood because of his deliberate inaction regarding our claims in the WPS.

Naiiyak ako. Nagngingitngit ako sa galit. Napakahirap maging Pilipino na walang magawa para sa sariling bayan. 

Nakikiusap ako sa lahat ng makakabasa nito. Magparehistro kayo. Bumoto tayo ng tama. Sana magkaroon tayo ng tamang pagpipilian. Nakakasawa na.

We can’t wait for Duterte's term to be finished. Sana naman sa darating na election bumoto tayo ng iba. 

Hindi DDS hindi Dilawan hindi Artista we need true leadership yung hindi ka-away ang kapwa niya Pilipino.

My heart weeps for our country.
