MANILA: The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has successfully kept a Chinese vessel illegally operating off Zambales from nearing the province’s coastline, as it spotted the “monster ship” a few nautical miles away.
In a statement released late Sunday night, the PCG spokesperson for the West Philippine Sea, Commodore Jay Tarriela, said that despite BRP Cabra’s smaller size, it has prevented the China Coast Guard (CCG) vessel 3103 from advancing closer to Zambales.
