Remember when early this week the National Security Adviser when he said that the sudden influx of
Chinese nationals is a threat?
Two groups of Chinese tourists were caught taking photos inside a
naval facility at Parola in Palawan last week.
According to Palawan News in Puerto Princesa, the Chinese
nationals were seen roaming and taking photos inside the Philippine Navy’s Tide
Pole naval facility in Parola on July 23.

A new naval ship was moored in the facility where the Chinese nationals were seen roaming, Filipino uniform personnel confronted the Chinese nationals caught inside the navy facility.
Because of the incident, the Naval Forces West had asked the
tourism department of Puerto Princesa City to ensure that tourists will not go
inside military premises as they are not tourist spots.
City tourism officer Aileen Cynthia Amurao, was quoted saying that an intelligence officer from the Philippine
Navy went to her office and requested to
prohibit foreigners visiting the naval facility as this is not part of any tour
package.
Amurao, said it was clear that the Parola naval facilty is not
part of the tourist spots, and was also clueless as to how these Chinese
nationals went there, if by boat or land vehicle.
Parola naval facility is a military camp under the jurisdiction of
the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and is the one in charge of the
islands of Palawan, including the Kalayaan group of islands.
