| dc.description | Last week, the West Philippine Sea was again headline chatter on the front pages, social media chat groups, television and radio, and the subject of commentary by various kibitzers. The WPS issue between China and the Philippines is a continuing conundrum akin to a festering boil that is constantly irritated. It could either go away on its own as the body’s natural healing power evicts the underlying pus or it could signal the start of a more ominous and dreaded disease like cancer. What happened that triggered the recent brouhaha? As we all know by now unless you have been living under a rock, it was a comedy of errors for the Chinese, a humiliating faux pas that was wisely recorded by our Navy for the whole world to see. | en |
