We are on the same page, you will realize . This is the reason attention is being drawn to the bill before it is signed into law.

Remember that blasted MoA-AD?

Public condemnation on the ground and in the blogospehere forced the government of the day to pull back from the edge one month after announcing the supposed “breakthrough.”

Ding,

I don’t think this will result to war. And, honestly, the Baseline Bill is full has conceded to china, especially on Scarborough Shoal, which is supposed to be within the main archipelago instead of just a regime of islands.

May I know exactly the SB number? The HB number?
Better still, somebody post the full text of the bill under this topic?

Considering the unpopularity of this administration to its people, the Filipino people, that has brought us to the brink of conflicts a number of times already, perhaps a shooting war with China is a better alternative, if conflict it is that would give us a sense of unity.

It will bring us down to a same result but at least we all die fighting together as one against a foreign common enemy and not against each other.
