Senator Filipina Cuba Menyalahkan Pihak Berkuasa Malaysia.

Seorang senator Filipina yang secara terang-terangan menyalahkan negara kita dalam cubaan menyelesaikan isu percerobohan pengganas sulu. Dia juga mencadangkan tindakan 'ringan ketenteraan' dibenarkan oleh undang-undang antarabangsa dalam menyelamatkan penduduk Filipina yang hendak lari dari sabah dan kembali ke tanah air mereka. Adakah ini bermakna beliau mencadangkang kerajaan Filipina untuk mencampur tangan dalam isu ini secara paksa? Tindakan beliau ini yang cuba memburukkan Malaysia di mata dunia adalah sesuatu yang tidak sepatutnya berlaku. Sebagai orang yang berpendidikan dan mempunyai akal, beliau sepatutnya sedar yang pihak pengganas sulu yang memulakan serangan tersebut. Mereka yang menceroboh dan mereka yang memulakan tembakan terlebih dahulu.

Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago. 

Sebenarnya, walau apa pun alasan yang diberikan, orang hanya akan mendengar apa yang hendak didengarinya sahaja. Tetapi dalam kes ini, kami melindungi hak dan kedaulatan negara kami. Sesiapa yang cuba mengganggu gugat keselamatan penduduk negara kami, kami tidak akan bertolak ansur. Ini adalah satu titik tolak di mana semua rakyat Malaysia akan bersatu dan mengenepikan fahaman politik demi kedaulatan negara. Bumi Malaysia ini milik Allah yang telah di amanahkan kepada kami untuk dijaga dan di makmurkan. Kami akan jaga bumi Allah ini dengan sebaik yang mungkin. Jika ada sesiapa yang cuba mencabuli kedaulatan kami, anda akan berdepan dengan seluruh rakyat Malaysia.

Berikut adalah kenyataan penuh beliau di dalam media filipina tersebut.

UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS

‘Limited force’ could be used to rescue Filipinos in Sabah, says Santiago

By


MANILA, Philippines —The Philippines may use “limited force” against Malaysia if the  lives of Filipinos caught  in the middle  of a violent dispute in Sabah are in danger, Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago said  on Friday.

While the use of law is prohibited under international law, Santiago said there are certain conditions that allow a state to use a “limited  force”   to protect and save the lives of its nationals.

“International law prohibits the use of force.  But there is an unwritten exception which allows states to protect or rescue their nationals by means of armed forces in the territory of another state,”  she said before the annual convention of the Association of Nursing Service Administrators Philippines held at the Manila Hotel.

“However, this exception should not be invoked, unless the Philippines has to carry out rescue operations,” said Santiago, a judge-elect at the International Criminal Court.

Santiago said among the pre-conditions that the  Philippine must first observe before  undertaking rescue operations in Malaysia are the following:
  • The lives of Filipino nationals should be genuinely in danger
  • Malaysia is unwilling or unable to ensure the safety of the persons concerned
  • The Philippines does not pursue any other purpose at the occasion of the operation
  • The scale and effects of the military force used are adequately measured to the purpose and conditions of the operation.
Asked  later during a press conference if the present  situation  in Sabah  warrants  the  Philippines’ use of  a limited force against  Malaysian authorities, Santiago said, “ According to the preconditions that are available, then the   Philippines could go to war in a limited sense as long as  these preconditions are met…”

“So as long as we meet these conditions under international law, we can avail of the exemption that allows us to use limited force to rescue Filipinos. We should have rescue operations there if the Filipinos are in danger of losing their lives,” she said.

Under international law, Santiago said, the  states in  conflict  with each other must avail  only peaceful means of settlements  of dispute.

“Meaning to say that war is considered illegal under international law for proving that a state has the right of sovereignty over a certain territory…That  of course applies to the dispute in Sabah by the Philippines and Malaysia,” she pointed out.

But the senator pointed out   how Malaysia stood  firm in sending first Filipinos out of Sabah before discussing any means  of settlement to end the dispute.

This attitude  by Malaysia, she said, was not approved by the international law.

“That’s is not provided for  by international law. If Malaysia insists that first Filipinos should all get out of Sabah then it will be willing to discuss any means of settlement of dispute, I’m afraid that Malaysia will be in danger   of being branded as a rouge state by the international community. That behavior is not anticipated and is not approved of by international law,” she said.

But  before  the  Philippines  takes  any action against  Malaysia, Santiago proposed the appointment of a third-party that would investigate  the recent spate of violence  in  Sabah.

When Congress opens in July, the senator said she would file a resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that President Benigno Aquino III should invite  Malaysia to agree  to an investigation by a third-party.

Santiago said the third-party could be a former prime minister or president of Southeast Asian Nations.

P/S : None of this would happen if Philippines is much prosper than Malaysia. The Philippines government should take the blame because they failed to take care of their own problem and none of the Filipinos immigrant would come to our country for work.
