Carpio warns of China zone over Scarborough
Excerpt
A Magistrative on Sunday warned the government on China’s reported plan to install a radar station in the disputed Scarborough Shoal. Senior Justice Antonio Carpio said the installation of an environmental monitoring station in the shoal would pave the way for the setting up of Beijing’s air defense zone in the South China Sea. “A radar station on Scarborough Shoal will immediately complete China’s radar coverage of the entire South China Sea,”Carpio said in a statement.
