BARANGAY ANILAO, Bongabong, Oriental Mindoro, April 30 (PNA) -- President Benigno S. Aquino III said on Sunday that the Philippines will continue to support its stand to resolve territorial claims over contested Scarborough Shoal diplomatically and to de-escalate any tensions between the country and China. | |||
This after a Chinese general recently called for decisive action against the Philippines. | |||
The President expressed confidence China would not take any action against the Philippines as both countries believed no one would benefit if military force was used to end the dispute. | |||
“We don’t think that at this point in time they will engage in any military activities. Purposely, our actions have been geared towards de-escalating the situation,” the President said. | |||
“It's clear that it is to nobody’s benefit and there are a lot of repercussions if any military force happens to be employed here,” he added. | |||
He said the continued presence of Chinese vessels and crew at the disputed island is being documented “so that when we make our case in the appropriate body, we have the necessary evidence.” | |||
He also said the government will continue reviewing all relevant local and international laws to determine the rules that will operate in the area. | |||
