President Rodrigo Duterte hits back Supreme Court Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio for urging his administration to forcefully insist Philippine's claim on the West Philippine Sea despite the president hardwork in trying to strengthen the relationship between China and Philippines."Si Carpio, daldal nang daldal, p— ina, wala namang ginagawa noon. So, gusto niya punta ko doon sa UN for the enforcement," the president said on his during the 119th anniversary of the Philippine Navy in Sasa Wharf, Davao City.
The president described the maritime dispute as "usapang lalaki" or man-to-man talk.
"Ganito ‘yan. Usapang lalaki ‘yang away. Sabihin ko sa kanya, 'P— ina mo, umalis ka diyan, akin 'yan.' Sabihin niya, usapang lalaki. 'Eh p— ina mo, bakit ako aalis dito? Amin 'to.' Sabi, 'Umalis ka.' Sabi niya, 'Ayaw ko.' O anong gusto mo? Ganon 'yan. Ang sabi dialogue, peaceful resolution, when will it end? Hanggang kailan ako makikipag-usap?" he said.
[It's like this. The dispute is like a talk between man and another man. I'll tell him (insert a crunchy cuss), get out of that place, that's mine. Then he'll reply, (insert another crunchy cuss) Why would I leave here? This is ours. You leave, they said. I'll reply, I don't want to. What do you want? It's like that. The dialogue says, peaceful resolution, when will it end? Until when will we talk?"
The president emphasized that he already raised the country's claim before his Chinese counterpart, but they could not agree on a middle ground.
"Itong mga bobo ng gobyerno, they keep on egging me sa arbitral ruling. Sinabi nila, 'Anong ginagawa mo sa arbitral?' The arbitral ruling places the South China Sea in our jurisdiction. But the Chinese has insisted and has made well known their stand that it is theirs and they will die for it. At ngayon itong si Carpio para bang gusto niyang lugawin ko, that I will pursue the matter, tawagin ko ‘yung mga countries to help us," he said.
"That is ours. I will dig oil there.’ And not in so many words, not really war but ‘yung diplomatic. And President Xi Jinping is very good at that. Ganoon na, ‘Huwag kasi kaibigan na tayo ngayon.’ In the raw translation, ‘Eh bakit lugawin mo pa? ‘Pag pumasok ka diyan magka-giyera pa tayo. There will be trouble'," he said. "If you are an idiotic naïve, anong sabihin trouble? Eh ‘di trouble, ‘di giyera,” he added.
Supreme Court Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio called out to the president and his administration that it is his constitutional duty is to defend the countries territories from China's claim. The Associate Justice told the president to file a strong formal protest against China for their constructions plans in the West Philippine Sea and to send Philippine Navy to patrol around the shoal.
"File a strong formal protest against the Chinese building activity. This is the least that the President should do. This is what the Vietnamese did recently when China sent cruise tours to the disputed Paracels," he said.
Duterte previously brought up that the he is planning to drill oil on some areas claimed by the Philippines, however, China's Xi response was there'll be war if he did.
