Philippines claiming a disputed island with a rusty ship is hardly any international order.

@BatAskal Article 3 in Spanish-American Treaty clearly specified Philippines limits and did not include Nansha islands in South China Sea.

@KickBAc3 The UNCLOS has no jurisdiction over territory disputes. EEZ does not define the ownership of any maritime features (islands, rocks and low-tide elevations).

@KickBAc3 When China claimed sovereignty over those reefs, Philippines was still not a country. Moreover, Spain or the US, which colonized the Philippines at that time, also had never claimed sovereignty over those reefs.

@KickBAc3 Yes, Taiwan which is part of China has sovereignty of Nansha Islands in the South China Sea.

@BatAskal China did not take part in this arbitration which is just a one-sided story. The ruling is non-binding and has no jurisdiction for any territory dispute.

@BatAskal Philippines violated the voluntary Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, made in 2002 between ASEAN and China, which also stipulated bilateral negotiations as the means of resolving border and other disputes.

@BatAskal The UNCLOS has no jurisdiction over territory disputes. Being part of UNCLOS does not affect a country's sovereignty on its territory in any way.

@BatAskal It is Philippines, influenced by the US, who violated other countries territory and undermined regional stability and peace.

@BatAskal China supports the freedom of navigation but will defend its territory from any provocative action to maintain peace.

@BatAskal If China has not exercised restrain, nobody would be able to station on that rusty ship years ago. China has the rights to defend its territorry.

@mah7961 Singapore being next to Malaysia coastline does not automatically make it part of Malaysia territory. And how far is Hawaii and Guan from the US coastline? Distance from coastline is not a factor in terms of sovereignty.

@BatAskal The US builds military bases in Philippines as its launching pad for its own selfish interests. Who will suffer the most when a war broke out between the US and China? Americans will not die for Philippines for sure.

@mah7961 I just state the fact.
