We must anticipate the worst, to stop it

Missiles and military facilities are being built in parts of the West Philippine Sea. Meaning, China need not invade us to control our natural resources and install a willing dictator. This scenario is becoming clear; we should anticipate it to prevent its realization. The foremost step is to overcome the fear which is being inculcated.

We must constantly recall and banner the patriotism invested by heroes for us to be free. We must remind ourselves of the necessity of sacrifice. The betterment and improvement of conditions for those who are to come after us could be the drive we need to once again unite us.
