To quote from the news report: Jay Batongbacal, Director of the University of the Philippines Institute for Maritime Affairs & Law of the Sea, laid out the history of Scarborough shoal, one of the many disputed maritime features in the South China Sea, from the era of ancient Chinese dynasties to the modern times to find out who really has sovereignty over it. “China argues that it is entitled to Bajo de Masinloc on the ground that it first discovered the island, gave its name and incorporated it into its territory, and had always exercised jurisdiction over it,” Batongbacal said during a lecture in De La Salle University.
