Defining the News
Philippine Coast Guard spokesman for the West Philippine Sea , Commodore Jay Tarriela, on Monday warned against “pro-China narratives” being spread by some groups to divert attention from Beijing’s aggression.
“Also, by calling out China’s bad behavior at sea, we highlight which party is really responsible for raising tensions and increasing the likelihood of a kinetic conflict,” the PCG official added. “The PCG does not have editorial control over what these journalists report. Our dedication to transparency is independent of any external influence, and we prioritize the dissemination of factual information to the public.”
The National Security Council earlier said it is monitoring influencers and groups who tend to echo China’s sentiments on the West Philippine Sea. “Their intention is to manipulate public opinion and divert attention from the issue of Chinese aggression. Their strategy revolves around discrediting both the message and the messenger,” Tarriela said.
He said the primary consideration in suggesting to use the term “Sea of Asia” is to engage the international community in a way that transcends territorial disputes. Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla earlier said that China should be held answerable for the “innumerable and immeasurable” damage it has inflicted on the Philippine environment.
This was in reaction to China’s claims that it had blocked and prevented a Filipino warship, the BRP Conrado Yap , from “trespassing” into the waters of Huangyan Island on Oct. 30.
