Senator Christopher “Bong” Go, vice chairperson of the Senate National Defense Committee, stressed in an interview on Tuesday, September 26, the need to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Philippines in light of the removal of a Chinese-installed floating barrier at Scarborough Shoal.

For years, the Scarborough Shoal, located 200 kilometers away from the Philippines, has been a contentious area due to disputes over territorial claims and fishing rights. It is administered as a political subdivision of Zambales province. “Trabaho po ‘yun ng ating mga nasa gobyerno, sa Executive Department, DFA, PCG. I’m sure alam nila ang kanilang ginagawa,” Go said, expressing confidence in the government’s actions.“Na-clear na ba? Dapat lang. Kung ano nga po ang atin ay atin ‘yun, ‘wag nating hayaang nakaharang d’yan ang mga barriers. Kung agrabyado naman tayo, kung ano nga po ang atin, ipaglaban po natin. What is ours is ours,” he emphasized.

“Dapat po ay respetuhin ang ating karapatan. Kung ano ang karapatan natin na mag-resupply tayo, atin po ‘yon, karapatan po natin ‘yun. Ipaglaban po natin ang ating karapatan,” Go reiterated.
