Should the Philippine government give up on the disputed islands in the West Philippine Sea? Why or
why not?

No, in view of the fact that these lands were originally ours, giving the West Philippine Sea
Is like giving away our fishing rights in our waters. I do believe that the West Philippine
Sea is crucial and is the home of the rich biological diversity found in the sea life of the
Philippines. Giving away the West Philippine Sea would cause a huge impact in our
Seafood Industry, considering that the West Philippine Sea Holds the largest share in Our
Seafood supplies, thus the fact that we have our debts, simply taking our lands is not a
proper and humane way of repaying our debt.
