🇵🇹 Português

Apesar do poder militar da China e de suas reivindicações sobre o território, o exército das Filipinas mostrou que está decidido a proteger a Ilha West York, também chamada de Likas nas Filipinas, que fica no Mar do Sul da China. Esta ilha pode se tornar um lugar importante para o ecoturismo, pois tem praias de areia branca, águas claras e áreas para proteger tartarugas marinhas.

No entanto, as disputas territoriais da China têm prejudicado essas ambições. A condenação internacional das ações agressivas da China em águas disputadas foi expressa tanto pelos ex-presidentes dos EUA, Joe Biden e Donald Trump. Sob a liderança do presidente Ferdinand Marcos Jr., as Filipinas aumentaram seus esforços para mostrar o comportamento assertivo da China por meio de vídeos e fotografias.

O exército convidou jornalistas para acompanhar uma patrulha pelas áreas do Mar do Sul da China que Manila reivindica. Ao mesmo tempo, na Ilha Thitu, que é o maior território reivindicado pelas Filipinas, foram feitas melhorias na infraestrutura, e uma pequena comunidade civil tem prosperado por décadas, mesmo com os desafios de viver perto da China.
