Hey folks, here’s an update from the high seas that’s making waves in the region 🌊. The China Coast Guard (CCG) has slammed the Philippines for what it calls illegal activities near China's Zhubi Jiao and Tiexian Jiao reefs. According to CCG spokesperson Liu Dejun, two Philippine official ships entered the disputed waters without clearance, with some personnel even landing on Tiexian Jiao.
In a recent incident, one Philippine vessel ignored multiple warnings and dangerously approached a CCG ship, resulting in a bump between the two. Liu stressed that such actions violate China’s territorial sovereignty and disrupt regional peace and stability.
This move underscores the importance of adhering to maritime rules—think of it like following community guidelines in your favorite online game 😎. Stay tuned as these maritime dynamics continue to unfold!
