SC ruling another reason not to allow PH-China joint exploration—fishers’ group.
The recent ruling of the Supreme Court against the 2005-Joint Marine Seismic Undertaking between the Philippines, Vietnam, and China in the West Philippine Sea only gives the country more reason not to pursue the joint oil and gas exploration with China, a fishers’ group said.
The fishers’ group said that the decision will strengthen their call against any efforts to revive the negotiations for Philippines and China’s joint oil and gas exploration. At the moment, Hicap noted, the country has “two strong legal bases to assert our territory”—the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea that recognizes our exclusive economic zone in the West Philippine Sea and the SC decision declaring the unconstitutionality of a joint venture with China.
“I think the central issue there is the difference between sovereignty and sovereign rights,” the President said.
