AFP works on more improved Phl presence in WPS
The Armed Forces of the Philippines is exerting key efforts to further improve the country’s presence in its territorial waters in the West Philippines Sea. AFP’s Western Command chief Vice Adm. Alberto Carlos said among these efforts include the effective control of all islands now occupied by the Philippines in the WPS, establishing a stronger naval presence, and enhancing maritime domain awareness in these areas. "What is certain is that the solution to the WPS maritime issue is not in the hands of the military alone, but the whole-of-nation approach because it takes a consideration of all matters, not just the military," he said during the Stratbase ADRi forum titled "Implementing a Comprehensive Philippine Maritime Framework to Advance Rule of Law" in Makati City on Wednesday. Carlos underscored that a stronger naval presence involves the Philippine Navy, Philippine Coast Guard, and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources that continuing to conduct maritime patrols in the country’s maritime territory. The WesCom chief also bared the government is slated to come up with a national strategy in the WPS, anchored to the ruling under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. In the same forum, Acting Australian Ambassador to the Philippines Moya Collett has expressed concern over the “destabilizing behaviors” directed against the Philippines, particularly the recent developments in the disputed Spratlys Island and Scarborough Shoal. “There have been a number of reports about destabilizing behavior directed towards the Philippines in the South China Sea and we’re very concerned about that,” Collett lamented. “We want all activities in the South China Sea and throughout the world to be consistent with international law and UNCLOS in particular,” she added. Meanwhile, Collett bared that Australia is eyeing the possibility of expanding its existing coral reef restoration program in the Philippines, covering the Rozul Reef—previously swarmed by the Chinese Coast Guard and Chinese Maritime Militia. This after, the AFP and the PCG reported that corals in Rozul Reef and Escoda Shoal had been “extensively destroyed” after the CCG and CMM vacated the waters. Collett said there are “no specific plans for that at the moment.” “But I think there’s potential for us to do that through our existing marine cooperation program,” she added.

‘HAMILTON’ MAKES ROUSING ASIAN PREMIERE IN MANILA
An exhilarated first audience welcomed the Tony, Grammy, Olivier and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Hamilton at The Theatre at Solaire in Manila on Sunday, 17 September, ahead of the official opening night on Thursday, 21 September. “Good things come to those who wait, and I know Hamilton’s Filipino fans have been waiting patiently for this moment to arrive,” said Michael Cassel, producer of Hamilton’s international tour. “The Manila audiences responded with such warmth, enthusiasm and generosity — we couldn’t be more thrilled and we are ecstatic to bring the revolution to Asia for the very first time.” Hamilton’s first ever international tour continues at The Theatre at Solaire until November with no further extensions. It will then make its Middle East premiere at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi in January 2024. More cities are expected to be announced in coming months.

DavOr, UNDP partner on disaster resilience
DAVAO CITY — The provincial government here and the United Nations Development Programme under the Australia-supported Strengthening Institutions and Empowering Localities against Disasters and Climate Change program recently signed a memorandum of understanding to strengthen the disaster and climate resilience of its emerging tourism and agribusiness sectors. In a statement Thursday, Governor Niño Sotero Uy Jr. and UNDP Deputy Resident Representative Edwine Carrié recently signed the agreement for SHIELD in Mati City. Uy said that climate change continues to advance at an unprecedented rate and the signing of the MoU is timely as it serves as their commitment to actively build institutional and community resilience to disasters and climate change.” “It will support the updating of our Provincial Physical Development Framework Plan and help us prepare for the rollout of the Community Based Monitoring System in the province, making our communities safer and more empowered in the face of extreme events,” Uy said. Representing the Australian Embassy, First Secretary Paul Harrington said that: Through the flagship resilience initiative SHIELD, they aim to further strengthen local government capacities by working closely with provincial and municipal governments towards a safer and more resilient Davao Oriental. Tourism is booming in Davao Oriental and is a major economic driver in the province due to its pristine forests, beaches, waterfalls and historical sites. However, the constant threat of disasters and climate change looms over the province due to its geospatial features. Davao Oriental is situated along the eastern seaboard of the country and portions of the province are located along the Philippine Fault system. The province has experienced destructive earthquakes and typhoons in the past, such as typhoon “Pablo” in 2012, which claimed hundreds of lives and displaced thousands of families.

Australia’s biggest warship deployed in Philippine drills
Australia's largest warship took part in joint drills with the Philippines and the United States in the disputed South China Sea on Monday, as they seek to strengthen defence ties in the face of China's growing military presence. China deploys hundreds of coast guard, navy and other vessels to patrol and militarize reefs in the contested waters, which it claims almost entirely despite an international ruling that its position has no legal basis. HMAS Canberra is one of several ships involved in Exercise Alon in the Philippines, which is being held for the first time as part of Australia's annual Indo-Pacific Endeavour activity. Alon is Tagalog for "wave". More than 2,000 troops from Australia and the Philippines are taking part in the August 14-31 air, sea and land exercises. About 150 US Marines are also participating. Monday's simulated air assault in the south of the Philippine island of Palawan happened around 200 kilometers (125 miles) from the Spratly Islands, where longstanding tensions between Manila and Beijing have flared. "Like the Philippines, Australia wants a peaceful, stable and prosperous region which respects sovereignty and which is guided by rules-based order," Hae Kyong Yu, Australia's ambassador to Manila, said at Tarumpitao Point Airfield. Such exercises were "critical" because "through these we are putting our words into action", she said. The United States, Japan and Australia will also hold joint naval exercises off the Philippines this week. "That's always been the plan," Captain Phillipa Hay, commander of the Australian Amphibious Task Force, told reporters on board the HMAS Canberra. "Those ships have come from Talisman Sabre (exercises in Australia) and everyone is on their way home, it's very normal for us to train in company with partners when we proceed to and from exercises." The drills come after a Philippine resupply mission to Second Thomas Shoal in the Spratlys was blocked by Chinese Coast Guard vessels using water cannon on August 5, triggering a diplomatic spat and international outrage. One of the charter boats carrying supplies to the outpost was prevented from reaching the shoal, while the other succeeded in unloading its cargo. The Philippine military has said it will send more supplies to the remote outpost, where a handful of Filipino marines are stationed on a rusty navy vessel. The BRP Sierra Madre was deliberately grounded on the reef in 1999 to check China's advance in the waters. China has demanded the Philippines remove the vessel and defended its actions as "professional".
