water forms for us Filipinos or the so-called “South China Sea” according to China.
The portion of the sea on the west coast of the Philippines that is claimed in whole by
China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, as well as in part by Brunei, Malaysia, and the Philippines, is
known as the West Philippine Sea. There are various marine zones there, and each has unique
nautical rights that are only available to the Philippines.
According to the website of Foreign Service Institute, the disputed situation about the
territory between Philippines and China it all escalated since the naval standoff over the
Scarborough Shoal in April 2012 and aggravated by issues of Chinese illegal occupation,
unlawful establishment of infrastructures, and incidents of incursions and encroachment
within the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone (EEZ). When the Philippine government filed
an arbitration lawsuit under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)
against China in January 2013, contesting the validity of China's nine-dash line claim over the
contested waters, bilateral relations took a hit. While as per accordance to the Australian
Parliament House Library website, Japan is not a direct participant in any South China Sea
issues. It doesn't claim any territory in the region. Plus, it is not entitled to an exclusive
economic zone. Japan does, however, have significant interests in the region. However, Japan
places a great deal of strategic importance on the South China Sea, not just from a military
stance but also in terms of its diplomatic and economic security.
As per watching the news, the plans of the Japanese Prime Minister to address the
issue together with the Philippines will start in how Japan would use its significant economic
funding to back efforts by poorer nations like the Philippines to expand their security
capabilities and improve safety at sea as China exercises its military power in the area. Japan’s
Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said he and Marcos Jr. agreed to pursue efforts to deepen the
three-way security relations of Japan, the United States, and the Philippines. The main
highlight of the visit is the Reciprocal Access Agreement wherein the Philippines and Japan
would be able to deploy troops to each other for military drills and other security operations,
such as cooperative patrols in the West Philippine Sea, that could act as a deterrent to regional
aggression.
In terms of how Philippines can improve its ties with Japan regards or regional security
and territorial integrity, this has been tackled in the state visit of Marcos back on February 8
this year. At Tokyo's Prime Minister's Office, the leaders ended off their first bilateral meet.
The seven prior agreements covered a range of sectors where parties may cooperate, such as
infrastructure, agriculture, disaster relief, digital collaboration, and humanitarian support. As
mentioned in the News release articles of the Presidential Communication Office website,
these are the agreements are: Exchange of Notes on Japanese Official Development Project:
North-South Commuter Railway Extension (NSCR) Project (II); Exchange of Notes on Japanese
Official Development Project: NSCR – Malolos to Tutuban Project (II); Loan Agreement for the
NSCR Extension Project (II); Loan Agreement for the NSCR – Malolos to Tutuban Project (II);
Umbrella Term of Reference (TOR) on Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR)
