The leadership of the House of Representatives is preparing to look into the so-called gentleman’s agreement between former president Rodrigo Duterte and Chinese President Xi Jinping on the West Philippine Sea issue.

MANILA, Philippines —

Dalipe, who is from Zamboanga City, chairs the House committee on rules. “Protecting our national territory and marine resources are of utmost importance,” he said. “The integrity of our nation’s sovereignty cannot be subjected to clandestine agreements that undermine the rights of the Filipino people,” Khonghun said. The first district of Zambales, which he represents, includes the coastal areas facing the West Philippine Sea.

“The Filipino people deserve to know the truth and hold accountable those responsible for any actions that may jeopardize our national interests,” he stressed. “It is our duty as public servants to ensure that their concerns are addressed and that the interests of the Philippines are protected,” he added.
