Unfazed by their recent encounter with Chinese Coast Guards, local fishermen said they are preparing to return to the Panatag Shoal to assert their right to fish. Fisherman Ronald Arciete, 31, said Chinese patrol boats have chased them away but that would not prevent them from returning to make a living by fishing in the shoal. Arciete’s group arrived here on March 24 after a two-week fishing trip to the West Philippine Sea.
