President Rodrigo Duterte has renewed his call to South China Sea (SCS) claimants to adhere to the rule of law and keep stability in the waterway, saying there can be "real peace if the strong tramples on the weak." Duterte made the appeal during his interview at the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) Summit on Friday where he stressed maritime disputes in account in accordance with international laws.
