The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) now has “eyes” patrolling the Philippine Rise with its Islander plane. PCG spokesman Captain Armand Balilo yesterday said the plane would be deployed along with multi-role response vessel BRP Suluan to patrol the area. “The ship and the Islander would serve as the ‘eyes’ in the area as part of our maritime patrol,” Balilo said.
