MANILA - Will the government “give up control and supervision of the activity” as part of the “60-40” sharing scheme for joint exploration in the South China Sea? This was the question of a maritime

law expert on Monday, days after President Rodrigo Duterte had said he was okay with a 60-40 sharing scheme in a proposed joint oil exploration with China.

“The 60-40 share is the minimum allowed by law, so that proportion is not the problem. It's whether PH will give up control and supervision of the activity, and/or implicitly recognize legally that China rights has over the resource,” Batongbacal said in a text message. “[China] is pushing hard diplomatically, but at the same asserting itself on the ground, which I think is counter-productive,” he said.
