I think the most likely scenario.

Isis who have been a problem in a small way will somehow get their hands of money, arms and will mount a sustained terrorist war in the Philippines. Eventually the president will be ousted.
They may be able to sanction their financial and banking system as well.

Enter China, things may be different if China moves in, they have the ability to break financial and military strangle holds.
Russia is probably waiting in the wings as well I would say.

This whole thing will place pressure on Australia to take a more active roll in the South China sea.
Watch and see who starts talking about Australia becoming more of a deterrent in the S.E.Asian region.
Will it be the U.S. military talking heads?
Will it be Julie Bishop?
Will it be Obama?
Will it be out PM?

Who will call for a ramping up of Australia's presence?

Who will make the firsts statement on record?

Would you prefer none made those first statements?

Would you prefer we roll out welcoming mats?
