Marcos admin urged to uphold 2016 arbitration ruling on West Philippine Sea

MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network): The Marcos administration should uphold the 2016 ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) favouring the Philippines’ claim in the West Philippine Sea (WPS).

Victor Andres Manhit, the president of think tank Stratbase ADR Institute, made the call on Tuesday (July 5), a week before the sixth anniversary of the PCA ruling that junked China’s nine-dash line for having no basis.
