PRESIDENT Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. called a Command Conference this morning with all security authorities to discuss the latest violation by China in the West Philippine Sea.
He instructed the Philippine Coast Guard to conduct an investigation, as mandated by international maritime laws, into the events that transpired during the RORE mission to Ayungin Shoal by vessels of the China Coast Guard.
The incident, brought about by dangerous, illegal, and reckless maneuvers by vessels of the China Coast Guard, caused damage to a Philippine vessel within our exclusive economic zone and is being taken seriously at the highest level of government.
