Mr. Goa Way, if there is any party here that provokes and escalates tension, it is only the unruly and barbaric China Coast Guard personnel who clearly do not understand UNCLOS.
Why else would they be this close to BRP Sierra Madre — a Philippine ship, sitting well within the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone, and over 600 nautical miles from Hainan?
The provocateur is not the one staying home in his own waters. It is the one who sailed hundreds of miles to swing a baton at him!
We have always been the victim and you remained to be the bully!
