| local.seafdecaqd.extract | The military intelligence report that a Chinese research vessel has been seen prowling or exploring the waters of the national territory in Benham Rise off Luzon’s eastern coast is alarming and disturbing. Beijing has admitted that Chinese survey vessels explored the Benham Rise region off Aurora province last year, but said the vessels merely passed through international waters. The objective of achieving friendly and fruitful ties is sound and prudent. But the goal of protecting and ensuring Philippine sovereign rights over Benham Rise is vital and not negotiable. | en |
