    Excerpt
    The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has set up command-observation posts (COPs) on three islands in the Kalayaan Island Group in Palawan province, which are expected to improve its maritime domain awareness in the West Philippine Sea (WPS). The COPs were established on Likas (West York), Lawak (Nanshan) and Parola (Northeast Cay) Islands on May 17, the PCG said in a statement on Friday. The three are among the nine features occupied by the Philippines in the disputed Spratly Islands. The PCG’s Task Force Kaligtasan sa Karagatan built smart houses and installed radio communications systems on the islands as part of the COPs.
