As China's 'monster ship' was recently spotted near Zambales, senatorial aspirant Gringo Honasan stresses the importance of including worst-case scenarios in the government's West Philippine Sea defense plan. With the increasing presence of Chinese vessels in the region, it is crucial for the Philippines to be prepared for any possible situation, ensuring the country's sovereignty and security. This move is seen as a proactive step in protecting the nation's interests in the WPS, a vital component of the country's maritime security strategy. Key aspects of the plan should include diplomacy, military preparedness, and international cooperation to address the rising tensions in the disputed waters.
