China stepped up combat readiness patrols around the Scarborough Shoal in January to counter ‘provocations’.
BEIJING: China conducted naval and air patrols around the Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea on Saturday, the China Southern Theater Command said.
The shoal is in the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone, but China also claims it as part of its territory.
The Philippine embassy in Beijing did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Lawmaker L.S.K. Devarayalu proposed a private member’s bill on the issue, which often triggers debate in parliament and influences lawmaking.
Polis berkata kes itu disiasat bawah Seksyen 428 Kanun Keseksaan atas kesalahan melakukan khianat dengan membunuh atau mencacatkan haiwan.
