A Philippine Navy guided-missile frigate and one of Canada’s most advanced warships sailed side by side in the West Philippine Sea near Palawan in a demonstration of freedom of navigation and of the preeminence of a rules-based international order in the Indo-Pacific region.
The joint sail, which took place on Thursday, happened just two weeks after a Philippine Navy ship sailed alongside a US Navy guided-missile destroyer in the West Philippine Sea 12 to 24 nautical miles from Palawan.
“The joint sail is part of the Philippine Navy’s regular engagements with its partners in the Philippines’ maritime zones,” Ileto said. On Sept. 4, the BRP Antonio Luna’s sister ship, the BRP Jose Rizal , also conducted a joint sail in the WPS with the US Navy Arleigh Burke-class guided missile-destroyer USS Ralph Johnson .
Ileto said both events signify the shared commitment of the Philippines, United States and Canada in promoting a rules-based international order in the West Philippine Sea and a free and open Indo-Pacific Region.
