The arbitration has not been for china on its latest decision
that it has jurisdiction over the claim of Philippines. China has been
reiterating that since then the disputed islands has been part of their territory
and no one has disputed their sovereignty until after the fall of japan.
For me china’s action show how baseless their claim over the
disputed island especially, the so-called “nine-dash-line”. The said line was a
line showing where china’s territory ends. If ever china’s claim was valid
historical evidence for me it is already amended by the UNCLOS which china is
also a signatory meaning, china is giving its consent to be under the UNCLOS,
disputing the said “nine-dash-line”.
I strongly believe that the Philippines will win the case and
the ruling will be for the side of the Philippines. If ever my prediction is
right, the next question is will china follows the order or go against it? I
really don’t know. But the worst thing that could happen is china will go
against it and world war will emerge in the pacific.
If the worst is yet to come, philippines should be ready for
it since in my belief, US will not give it all to protect us. The damage will
still be on us and we are still on our own.
