China is making it appear we are the ones who are disturbing the peace and
stability in the Region.
It might be recalled that the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) and the
Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) conducted maritime exercises
in the West Philippine Sea (WPS).
“China enjoys sovereignty over Nansha (Spratly) Islands including
Zhongye (Pag-asa) Island and Zhongsha Islands including Huangyan Island
(Scarborough Shoal) and their adjacent waters, and exercises jurisdiction in
relevant waters,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said during the April 26 press briefing.

“We urge the relevant side to respect China’s sovereignty and rights and
interests, and stop actions complicating the situation and escalating
disputes,” he added.
According to the PCG, the BRP Gabriela Silang (OPV-8301) and BRP
Sindangan (MRRV-4407) started their maritime exercises near the Bajo De
Masinloc on April 24, while the BRP Cabra (MRRV-4409), BRP Malapascua
(MRRV-4403) and PCG-manned BFAR vessels commenced their ship interoperability
training near the Pag-asa Island last week.
“We are supporting the whole-of-nation approach in securing our maritime
jurisdiction, especially the efforts of the National Task Force for the West
Philippine Sea (NTF-WPS) to undertake maritime security, maritime safety,
maritime law enforcement, maritime search and rescue, and marine environmental
protection roles in our country’s waters,” PCG spokesperson Commodore Armando
Balilo said.
