MSEditorial Changing tack in the WPS We are heartened to see the government of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. taking a new course of action with respect to sail position in the West Philippine Sea.
This follows aggressive actions of China in the area, the latest when a China Coast Guard ship beamed a “military grade” laser at some crew of the Philippine Coast Guard in an area within the country’s 200-mile exclusive economic zone .
“The Chinese maritime police vessel defended China’s sovereignty and maritime order in accordance with China’s domestic law and international law,” spokesperson Wang Wenbin said, without specifying what action the Chinese side took.China claims “indisputable sovereignty” over almost all of the 1.
We are cheered up the government, through the Philippine Coast Guard, has taken a new tack by intensifying maritime patrols and making public acts of harassment and bullying. At the same time, we welcome moves by the government to allow joint patrols with countries in accord with the rule of law in the WPS.
