“Land is essential in claiming sea
rights” A remarkable statement by Jardeleza on UP Law Center on a forum
regarding "UNCLOS" basic principle.
Based from law in accord with "UNCLOS", Chinas’ claim is totally invalid. "UNCLOS" affirm 3 types of maritime
features and one of it states that water on its surrounding is always a part of
its own.
Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao were entitled
to own approximately 22km from coastline in which all authority is within. Formed islands are also titled to approximately
370 kilometer EEZ. This authority gives the right to use or do whatever it may
do to maximize available resources if any.
Philippine has no plans of
disputing Parcel islands both china and Vietnam claims since it are already out
of its EEZ. “ITLOS” in which case
have been submitted by the Philippine authorities, China clearly violates the "UNCLOS" thus it has no rights to whatever on Philippine territories.
YEBBAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
