SUBIC, Zambales—Photos on social media of Chinese bombers flying over the disputed Scarborough Shoal on Monday prompted calls to fishermen by local officials for restraint. She said the photographs showed China’s capability to maintain its occupation of the Scarborough Shoal, 230 kilometers from Masinloc and well within the Philippines’ 370-km exclusive economic zone. Masinloc Mayor Arsenia Lim has cautioned the fishermen against returning to the shoal. Malacañang has not offered any official policy arising from the PCA ruling but has requested Filipinos to avoid provoking China. All I’m asking right now if for everyone to remain calm,” Deloso said.
