Where they diverge
-
The nature of the activity in the South China Sea.
- South China Morning Post: The Philippines is seeking to move its South China Sea row with Beijing into classrooms, a push that analysts say could shape how young Filipinos understand the country’s maritime claims while raising questions over potentially blurred lines between education and state narrative-building.
- Al Jazeera: China was seeking to deny Filipino fishermen access to the area surrounding the Scarborough Reef, near the island of Luzon. It also rejected China’s claims that the area constituted a “nature reserve”, dismissing the assertion as a bid by Beijing to advance its territorial ambitions.
