Defining the News
House Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez on Saturday denounced China’s order to arrest foreign nationals in the West Philippine Sea.
The House leader said China must respect international rulings and act as a responsible member of the global community, rather than imposing its own laws unilaterally and bullying other nations. The civilian regatta of the Atin Ito Coalition that was supposed to be en route to Panatag Shoal on Thursday has been a remarkable source of pride and an excellent display of Filipino patriotism, according to Manila Rep. Bienvenido Abante Jr. and Lanao del Sur Rep. Zia Alonto Adiong.
