Malaysia now doing a “Creeping Invasion” on Balabac Island in Palawan

I just find it a bit amusing and Tragic that while this current Administration of Bong Bong Marcos (BBM) is constantly trying to goad China over our Territorial Disputes in the South China Sea (SCS), at the same time it is allowing what I would only describe as a “Creeping Invasion” of our Territories near Malaysia.

A TikTok Account for Example recently showed how Stores in the Balabac Island in Palawan are mostly selling Goods that are sourced from Malaysia. These have likely been smuggled in, without the Proper Paperwork and Taxes.

This is not good because the Filipinos in that Island will start identifying themselves as Malaysians since they are constantly exposed to Malaysian Culture and Goods. Why couldn’t we develop our Logistic Supply Routes to make it easier and cheaper for Filipino Goods to reach that Island instead of Malaysia?

Also if you read the Comments Section, the People there say that Filipino Children in Balabac are now being sent to School in Malaysia instead of Philippine Schools. And that also Balut Island in Davao Occidental is being similarly influenced, but by Indonesia. Just shaking my Head at this Hypocrisy ...
