Malacañang considers the presence of Chinese vessels in the West Philippine Sea as an attack on the country’s sovereignty.
Aside from the Chinese vessels sighted near Pag-asa island, there are also Chinese vessels sighted near Koto and Panata island.
According to Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo, once the report is validated it will be included in the diplomatic protest against China.
“Then we will object to their presence. We already filed a diplomatic protest and that applies to everything, anything that concern Chinese vessels in our territory,” he said.

Salvador also said that the Palace is against the presence of these Chinese vessels and insists that they should leave the West Philippine Sea.
“They will know that we are against it. That we will not allow it. That we will not tolerate such presence in our territory. They have no business being there. It is if they continue to be present to our territory then it is an assault to our sovereignty,” he said.
The Department of Foreign Affairs already submitted a diplomatic protest against China regarding the presence of Chinese vessels near Pag-asa Island.
