Manila, Philippines – What did a Chinese research ship do this week near Lucon’s coast? The Philippines Coast Guard has raised suspicion after the “Definition of China Ship” after the “definition of Luzon beach” appeared to be “following the definition” 24 to 25 nautical miles away.
Although foreign ships can cross the Philippines water under international law, PCG spokesman J Darila said that the movement of the LAN High 101 on Thursday, February 13, had withdrawn from the innocent column.
Instead of taking a direct way, one of China’s largest research ships, the ship – appeared when maintaining a “precise” distance “continuously” the Philippines coast.
Darila said, “throughout its transport from Balavanan to Mindoro,” Lan High 101 to 25 to 25 nautical miles “was able to follow the definition of this coast.”
“What is suspicious in the movement of the Chinese Fisheries Laboratory is that it maintains an average of its approximate 24 to 25 nautical miles from Lucon’s coast … They maintain such a distance, they are accurate in their entry,” Dareela said in an interview with Radio 630 in the Dareela mixed English and the Philippines.
At 24 to 25 nautical miles away from the shore, the Lane High 101 was traveling into the continuous zone of the Philippines – it has the most limited enforcement forces compared to its regional water, which stretches only 12 nautical miles from the coast.
This water comes into the 200-mile exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
“It may be united, but this is a Chinese research ship, one will ask. Why do they do it?” Said Tarila.
The PCG spokesman believes that if the ship simply passes, it must have taken the direct path through the Philippines Waters.
“(They) why would they try to make a definition of this beach?” Said Tarila. “It should be continuous and quick.”
“We have no doubt in the Philippines that this fisheries research is only a puzzle. It’s only a puzzle,” he added.
The Chinese vessel was first seen on Sunday to the east of Balavan.
By 7am on Wednesday, the ship paralyzed its automatic identification system (AIS). It was last seen by the Dark Shipment Detection System, about 62 nautical miles from the Babyan Island.
PCG’s concerns over the movements of the Lan High 101 are being maintained by many Chinese ships maintaining their presence in the West Philippine Sea. Four China Coast Guard (CCG) ships are currently parked at the Scarbaro Shol, including the so -called “Monster” CCG5901, for its imposed volume.

The BCG said the Ships were constantly monitored when the Philippines insist on sovereignty rights in the West Philippines. Darilla stressed that when CCG ships tried to move near the Philippines, PCG ships were used to exempt their illegal existence and international law.
China states almost the entire South China Sea by the so-called nine-line line, including water within the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines. In 2016, a arbitration tribunal in the hack would not invoke Beijing’s detailed claims, but China refused to recognize this verdict.
