New Philippine territory oil-rich

“At anchor at Benham Bank 50-m and 2-knot currents. Trying drop cam to take a peek at bottom. All okay. A few seasick. Good weather!” said a Twitter account by a team of Scientist trying to explore the newly awarded territories as part of Philippines.

A team of scientist left Manila last Saturday, May 3 boarding a Philippine research vessel (M/V Department of Agriculture-BFAR) will explore Benham Rise, a 13-million hectare area off the coast of Aurora larger than Luzon.

          Kawawa ka naman, bulag pa rin sa katotohanan. Di kita masisisi, na brainwash ka ng media propaganda. Di ko na kelangan isaisahin pa mga ginawa ni Marcos, do yourself a favor and i-research mo na lang.

            Brainwashing also goes the other way because people only want to see or hear what they want to hear/see.

            Please tell me who from our previous presidents managed to do what Marcos did during his days? If you think Marcos was the worst president we have had, then think again. Try to look at our economic and military might then and now, and citizens were far more disciplined and afraid of the law. Indeed there was corruption but only few people did it. Now, even barangay officials does it, any government office have corrupt officials in them. Wake up Puretuts, evidence are all around you. There's no need for google.
