MANILA — Despite being outnumbered and outsized by its foreign counterparts, the Philippine Coast Guard's "BRP Pampanga" (SAR-003) valiantly defended a National Museum-hired yacht against harassment at Panatag (Scarborough) Shoal by Chinese vessels, Northern Luzon Command head Lt. Gen. Anthony Alcantara said on Tuesday. | |||
Alcantara explained that this took place on April 14 when an unidentified Chinese vessel approached the "M/Y Sarangani" and demanded that the Filipino ship stop its mission which was to conduct an archeological survey in Panatag Shoal. | |||
"Upon receiving word of the harassment, BRP Pampanga positioned itself at the mouth of Panatag Shoal and thereby demonstrated to the Chinese vessels that it is willing to protect the M/Y Sarangani," the Nolcom chief said. | |||
Due to the efforts of BRP Pampanga, the M/Y Sarangani was able to complete its mission and departed from the area on April 20. | |||
"I think they were well taken care of by our Coast Guard when they were out there," Alcantara said. | |||
