US military in talks to build port on Batanes Island in Philippines | World News | WION

install more radars in this new bases n ports for monitoring foriegn intruders in Phil territory

Its game over for any Chinese invasion of Taiwan once the new Batanes naval and airbase is establish. Also the 300km inner Chinese mainland will now be vulnerable to direct attack when missile systems are in place in the new base.

Only Reds and Robin Padilla oppose this....

I 100% agree

Just wait and see what will happen in an all out war! How many Pinoy will die for the warmonger US?

IM FILIPINO I WILL SUPPORT THIS PLAN..GO USA..BUILD BATANES AS YOUR MILITARY BASE..

Nobody is economically improving Batanes island anyway, might as well make it a US fort like intramuros but with electronic walls instead physical barriers.

China means- SUPER BULLY AND GREEDY.

philippines must CUT diplomatic ties with china due to constant BULLYING

hope philippines govt officials who are pro china will not be able to delay this project..

Bravo philippines .wise decision

America should protect the Philippines b cos.at.one.time it was an American colony so china need.need be thought a lesson if Yu give an inch.they.will try to take one feet that is the attitude of ccp china communist.china.should.kick out china from.the south china. Sea
It is a big nuisance

That is a very good move...
More listening and radar stations facing china.

Batanes would be great site for US submarine and naval bases.

YES. TO US BASE IN BATANES...

As a Filipino citizen, I approve of this. More security for our people!

Do it ASAP Philippines and US.

good for the people of batanes it helps to boost the economy surely business is booming like mushrooms , the bar and grill restaurant, disco 24/7. girls girls girls is all wannna have fun...

Meanwhile.. India will help China by sending hot curry to go with China's tofu.. 😁😁

These is why china recently released 10 dash line to circulate taiwan. Yet china think people of the world are stupid to think that everything is fine.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ it

Very good decision on the part of US government,,big advantage on the Philippine govt.

It is strategic location, but it will drag Philippines deeper into US - China Proxy War

Good move! But pro-Chinese Filipino leftists and rightwing nationalists will try to block it. They succeeded in getting US forces out of Clark and Subic bases. They can be counted on to leave the Philippines defenseless. Or on having the Philippines shoulder the cost of defense alone.

Majority of the Filipinos will approve the plan.

How stupid of them to Trust their former opressors 😂😂🤣🤣

All reporters should be corrected not to use disputed with regards to our Philippine EEZ.

Be careful on your words the ayungin is not disputed as these are within the EEZ of the Republic if the Philippibes.

yung mga traveller papintang batanes mabilis na silang makarating sa kanilang touriste destination😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍

Go go go...

SA west Philippine Sea nalang Sila mag tayo

Welcomed us to building in Batanes us based

its about time...tadtarin na nila ng base militar para manginig yung mga behong mahirap kausap.😂

It's a very important and laudable proposal of the US to have a new port in Batanes, the northern most part islands of the Philippines...not only for economic reason, but most importantly for the security of the our country, the Philippines.... I hope it would happen the soonest time possible ❤🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏

Nice one

The US is economically and politically disunited and basically falling apart. Let's get our own country in order before getting involved in stuff that we can't sustain and the responsibility of other countries.

US, please install in said Port smr (small modular reactor) so that it will have independent power plant not dependent on mainland Batanes Province in terms of electricity. If successful, adopt the same power source to all towns in the Philippines.

Wow nice move

No more time...build it asap.....

Diplomatic talks is useless thats why Ph need the help of US. Philippines are friendly nation but dont mess with us.

Choke point

They should also build ports on the island on palawan.

I suggest to revive, upgrade, rebuild CORREGIDOR ISLAND 🏝 as one of the EDCA sites.
Having a base adjacent to Manila, it will protect millions of population in tge cities and its metros as well as adjacent towns n provinces.

Mavulis and fuga island is the best location for military and naval base

Good i agree.this is strategic deterence of the phil.from china going to pacific.and good also for ibatan.gogogo...

A very good proposal. Build it ASAP!!!

Philippines going back to US Statehood

As Filipino, I support this!

ph and us are allies since the wrldwar 2 🇵🇭🇺🇸

nice smart plan..we need AFP USFORCES BATANES HEADQUARTERS OF NAVY MARINE AIRFORCE..bases both BATANES TAIWAN ang karagatan pagitan papunta HAWAII.. US SEA..SOUTH AMERICA

As a Filipino, that's better than misplaced bullied Chinese with hegemonic ambition in WPS.
