Educating Filipinos about the history of the West Philippine Sea (WPS) could help the Philippines win the fight against China’s claims on the entire South China Sea, according to retired Supreme Court justice Antonio Carpio. In a lecture hosted by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines and the National Library of the Philippines last Friday, Carpio pointed out that the “total lack of knowledge of the Treaty of Paris and the history of the Treaty of Washington” could be the problem.
