In the many attempts of the Philippine Coast Guard and private vessels to resupply provisions to the rusty ship, China’s coast guard vessels have used high-pressure water cannons on crews of Philippine vessels to the point of hurting them. Last week, an “ATIN ITO’’ flotilla of civilian vessels reached Panatag , or the Bajo de Masinloc off Zambales, to emphasize that it is Philippine territory, and even placed buoys along the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
Now China is claiming all of the South China Sea as its own, to the point of warning foreigners that they will be detained for intrusion in China’s territorial waters.
