President Bongbong Marcos has scored a diplomatic coup in his recent state visit to China where he displayed an innovative take on dispute resolution that led to several commitments he was able to muster from a political colossus, Xi Jinping, that will engender economic benefits for the country. Soon, our fishermen will be back in their traditional fishing grounds in the West Philippine Sea.
The commitment that PBBM secured from Xi Jinping provides an insight on how he was able to craft a firm but conciliatory stance on the issues that plague the China-Philippines relations. As he told newsmen covering the visit, “And I was very clear about the plight of our fishermen. The President promised that we would find a compromise and find a solution that would be beneficial so that our fishermen might be able to fish again” in the WPS.
It is heartening to note that the two leaders “reached consensus on the peaceful resolution of disputes” on the basis of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, the United Nations Charter and the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.
