  1. Now this is one hot issue: The Philippines has been battling it out with China on the Scarbourough Shoal, also known as the Panatag Shoal. It all started way back in April when a Chinese fishermen were caught by the Philippine Navy illegally fishing in Philippine waters at the shoal. Chinese Naval Observation boats came and a stand-off started. Ever since, both parties have not come to a closure yet... The Philippines is relying on a multi-lateral agreement with China and the rest of the ASEAN nations to promote peace and equal access to the resources in the West Philippine Sea or South China Sea if you may call it. However, it is to be noted that the Panatag Shoal is within the 200 NM exclusive economic zone of the Philippines, which gives it authority to exercise its sovereignty over the Shoal as per UNCLOS. However, China does not acknowledge the agreement, though they have signed the UNCLOS. In addition, China wants to have the issue settled bilaterally. Now come USA. The Philippines and the US have a mutual defense treaty. If ever China would wage war on the Philippines over the shoal, that's something i won't want to happen... But this can grow big, especially that the 2 greatest powers on earth are battling each other out over one shoal.
  2. I don't really have anything much to say... It's not that I'm uneducated or what not... It's just that when you believe, when something is seen in the eyes of faith, then it is possible. I don't have any mathematical formulae or scientific or archaeological facts that may prove the existence of a Supreme Being. But kinda think of it, what I see in everyday life is already proof enough that God does exist. The Planets, though floating in space, don't clash each other, because of gravity and other forces, YES, but isn't it something larger than life that could think of something so beautifully created and so in order? Oh dear, watch out when the planets collide! The very fact that we exist, the moment we wake up in the morning, is already something to behold. When we sleep, we literally are dead is some way. Those natural biological processes work out on our bodies, YES, but isn't it really great to be still alive when we get up, and still be able to type something right here in this forum? I don't mind if some people don't believe in a Supreme Being, for me, the Supreme Being, God Himself. I just pray that they would realize that He has everything in control. Amen.
