【Editorial Cartoon】Are You Sure It's Yours Just Because It's Closer?

  Recently, the Philippines has enacted the so-called Philippine Maritime Zones Act and Philippine Archipelagic Sea Lanes Act, attempting to unlawfully incorporate China's Huangyan Dao (also known as Scarborough Shoal) and most of the islands and reefs of the Nansha Islands (also known as the Spratly Islands), along with their surrounding waters, within its maritime jurisdiction. The country seeks to use domestic legislation to legitimize the illegitimate South China Sea Arbitration ruling. Among the most absurd justifications cited is this: "Scarborough Shoal is closer to the Philippines."
