As the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) has yet to establish a fully functional communication mechanism with China, the recent Ayungin Shoal incident between Filipino fishers and the CCG will be discussed through diplomatic channels.
The recent Ayungin Shoal incident involving Filipino fishers and the Chinese Coast Guard will still be discussed through existing diplomatic communications as the Department of Foreign Affairs is yet to see a fully-functional communication mechanism with its Chinese counterpart.
“Internal procedures have to be put in place to make communication mechanism operational,” Daza said in a press conference. “The communication mechanism is intended to ensure timely, effective peaceful management of urgent ongoing maritime issues or concerns of critical importance as determined by both sides on a case to case basis,” Daza said.
Since 2016, the government has already sent a total of 262 note verbales to China. These included the 195 sent in 2022 and one in 23.
