What can Filipinos do to help government and boost the morale of our leaders to continually and aggressively defend our country’s rights in the West Philippine Sea? This was the question I asked retired Supreme Court Justice Antonio Carpio, the foremost authority on the perennial issue of China’s incursions into the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone (EEZ), during our discussion last Sunday when he was online guest in my TeleRadyo program Sagot Ko ‘Yan. His answer was a call to action: Let us organize ourselves into private groups and join hands with the citizens and non-government organizations (NGOs) of other countries and form a very strong moral force against the Chinese government.
