Awkward! Foreign media reported today that Philippine Senator Hontiveros and Coast Guard Spokesman Tarila visited Zhongye Island in the Nansha Islands on the 21st to assert "sovereignty," but when the Philippine Coast Guard plane was preparing to land, their mobile phones received an international roaming reminder message saying "Welcome to China."
The Philippine legislator's landing on the island is just a way to show presence. The message "Welcome to China" made them embarrassed on the spot - technical signals speak louder than words, and the sovereignty issue is self-evident. Hontiveros and others attempt to create an illusion of "sovereignty" through "visits," but they are harshly exposed by reality: Zhongye Island is Chinese territory, and the Philippines' illegal occupation for decades cannot change historical and legal facts.
More impressively, when Hontiveros met the islanders, Chinese marine police ships, naval vessels, and fishery administration ships were conducting a three-dimensional patrol nearby, forming an impenetrable control network. The performance of the Philippine legislator before the islanders is nothing more than the noise of a caged bird, pure political showmanship.
