Can the Philippines Really Boycott China Products?

The long unresolved issues on Spratly Island rise again. The issues to whether the island is part of Philippine area of responsibility or China. This issue created tension in the country, that sort in suggesting to ban all China Products here in the Philippines just to frustrate China on their action. But is it really necessary to boycott their products? How will the country cope up without its main trading partner? Does this issue affects Filipino overseas workers in China? Have you ever look into your household appliances, wares, clothes even the food you bought, how many of them were made in China? Did you ever scrutinize your cellphone, or your laptop parts or even your personal computers? Where does it said made from...China.

I dont think it is possible. If we boycott China products, what if they take it against us and boycott Filipino products as well? I use Chinese herbal products actually...

I also think so. The one who suggest that idea of boycotting products from China didn't think twice before saying it to the national television. The problem regarding the problems on national territory should not be mixed up with business and economic issues.
