“”For me, we should not be too alarmist on this because China has given names to many things. Siopao, mami, all these were named by the Chinese. Hototay soup, but this did not mean that they owned these,” Roque said.”
The Presidential spokesperson referred to China naming five features in an undersea plateau which remains located just off the eastern Luzon seaboard. The said location is believed to host a vast amount of reserves of natural resources.
Harry added that there will be no controversy in the Philippine Rise or Benham Rise and stressed that the country will still give the five features their own Philippine names. Located some nautical miles east of Cagayan, the named features also include the Jinghao and Tianbao Seamounts. The Haidonquing Seamount remains further east at 190 nautical miles and Cuiqiao Hill. Jujiu Seamount also still forms the central peaks of the Philippine Ruse undersea geological province.
