Subic military base buildup vital to DND, US | Inquirer Global Nation

good or bad?

Good, Sauna tong naa pa ang US bases, libre ra ang ubang mga major repairs sa atoang mga gamit.... Then Subic kay duol ra sa scarborough musugot kaha ang US na kuhaon na sa China na diha muagi ang mga warships sa US....

Bisan pa rotational ra ilahang pag agi... magbilin man gyud na sila ug mga equipments para sa servicing sa ilahang war equipments, pwede ta maka patrain nila....

nindut ni pro mao sad lage tungod kay libre ng salig nalang..mao pag sirado sa US bases ang atong AFP ni hinay pud. ng hinaot ko nga karon kung madayon man gali ni nga mo butang balik ang US ug military base ma maximize nato ang ilang presence like training and development or unsa pana diha nga dapat nato mahibaloan..and mapadayon ang plano sa modernization with or without US base...

kay "basin" ug magsalig nalang ta unya dili na ma tuman ang by phase nga pag upgrade sa atong AFP tungod kay naay US military base sa subic.

Philippines, US confirm US Navy's return to Subic Bay

its kinda ironic no... nga ang inahan ni abnoy kay nagpalagpot nila pero ang anak maoy nag pa balik... im not against on this katawa lang ko...

[salbahis]

nindot na ni di na ni ma crush og ma bitik sa tabanog.

if you notice naay duha ka sungay nga gamay sa taas ug ubos... mao nay gitawag nga wire cutter, katong na crash diri sa opon wala to siya ana... afaik on the report a nylon string melted into the swashplate that controls the helicopter, its not the age of the aircraft, even modern helicopter still have swashplate... with wire cutter...

i prefer to have single helicopter model or something closer to for ease of maintanance... sokol has a dna of Mil, like cobra has the dna of huey

my point of view is
we will never be able to modernize enuf to keep up (as of the moment)
we do not have enuf resources
it is wiser for us to ally with other nations

anyways
we can have better uses for the money they are investing
healthcare takes more priority compared to war readiness
economy needs a ton of help
education i dont know where to begin

Suck this up then... when you say ALLY with other nation(s)
are you suggesting that we should just ENTRUST our nations defense to someone
else?? Seriously??

FYI
Education under the current Philippine law for budget allocations always has the big chunk
of the Budget. Check out the image below:

well if she really wanted to stay she could have done something instead of giving up on the demands of senators...
