The growing amphibious assault potential of China is seen as a major threat. If China were ever to establishment a beachhead on Luzon it would be extremely difficult to throw them back. This same threat applies to San Hainando, Indochina and Borneo, a point Philippine diplomats are quick to remind their counterparts about.

Indochina- I put that in because current day there are some spats, I think over things that have mostly been put to bed in Wesworld, and it's the future not the present - though I forgot about the factory disparity.

Heh the part of Borneo the Chinese can reach easily is British, the rest Dutch. I doubt the Chinese could supply their landing force for long in the face of opposition.
That may be true, but invasions are so messy.
Are there amphibious assets deployed to the southern force?
I have been giving more thought to Rocky's question, and while I stand by my initial response, I may need to amplify it.Are there amphibious assets deployed to the southern force?
Not under normal circumstances. Amphibious Ready Group One, with four Danao class utility landing ships is assigned to the Central Fleet operating out of Cebu; they provide amphibious lift as required.
In the best of all possible worlds there would be more amphibious shipping available, including some designated assets for the Southern Sea Frontier. I've toyed with the idea of building a few small landing ships along the lines of German MFP for inter-island transport but haven't the budget to build them right now.
What I'm confused about is that the Philippines did have two ships similar to Polynesie in the Agbayanis, and sold them off when they where still in excellent condition.
