MANILA, Philippines The Chinese have taken over another traditional Filipino fishing ground near Palawan where they have stationed up to five ships to keep local fishermen at bay, sources said.
Now effectively under Chinese control is Quirino or Jackson Atoll, which has been a rich source of catch for a long time for fishermen from Palawan, Southern Luzon, Western Visayas and even Manila.
Gray and white Chinese vessels have not left the atoll, which Filipino fishermen also call Jackson Five, because of the existence of five lagoons in the area.
The Chinese are claiming almost the entire South China Sea, including the West Philippine Sea. Manila is contesting Beijings claim before an international arbitral court based in The Hague.
Filipino fishermen lamented the Chinese vessels would not allow them to come near or linger in the Quirino Atoll.

Are they sorry yet for kicking the Navy out of Subic Bay?
Cheap Chinese canned fish in the near future...
And our government is doing what about this?
They know there’s a pussy in the White House.
I’m really sad for the Philippines, but they’re ultimately responsible for this outcome. Between demanding that we leave, and severely underfunding/neglecting their military presence in this vital region, their chickens have come home to roost.
“Are they sorry yet for kicking the Navy out of Subic Bay?”
They wanted us gone. let them deal with China. If there is a dispute I’m sure the UN will be most helpful as usual.
Sales at Harbor Freight are way down so they have to do something !!
Hurry, China! Grab all the foreign territory you can before the P*SSY in the White House leaves office!!!!
FYI
A lot of this is because of the policies of Barak Obama.
But, certainly, Subic bay results are coming home.
And our government is doing what about this?
And the Philippino Government?

>And our government is doing what about this?
Before America starts a nuclear exchange we should see if China is just wiping out some islamo threat. America, Russia and China could team up and wipe out islam of we make a plan.
It could be a great plan and be profitable if done wisely.
Was Aquino available for comment?
Yeah, they'll send in Peacekeepers to rape and impregnate the young girls.
Active Duty ping.
