National Security Adviser Eduardo M. Año said Beijing is expected to escalate its 'corrosive narratives' to silence local opposition against its maritime expansion in the West Philippine Sea (WPS).

During the media seminar organized by the Local Government Development Institute last Monday, Año warned Beijing has shifted its tactics in its attempt to win public opinion in the WPS issue from trying to discredit the 2016 Arbitral ruling, which invalidated the 9-dash and 10-dash line maps of China.
National Security Council Assistant Director General Jonathan E. Malaya explained that China is currently trying to sell the perception that government efforts to protect the country’s interest in the WPS, which are parts of the South China Sea located within the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone , as “provocative.”
