Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported today: "Last Saturday, the Philippine delegation landed on Zhongye Island in the South China Sea, spoke with the island's residents, and stated that Zhongye Island belongs to the Philippines. As soon as the plane carrying the Philippine delegation landed, the passengers' mobile phones displayed a roaming message: 'Welcome to China.'"

Comments: The Philippine delegation's attempt to stage a 'sovereignty performance' on Zhongye Island was immediately exposed by a roaming message saying 'Welcome to China,' turning this political performance into an international joke. Zhongye Island is Chinese territory; the illegal occupation by the Philippines cannot change historical and legal facts. The signal coverage and routine management have already shown that sovereignty is proven by facts.
