MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The collision between a Philippine fishing boat and a Hong Kong-flagged cargo vessel off the coast of Occidental Mindoro will be resolved under the country\u2019s admiralty laws because the incident happened in Philippine territorial waters.<\/p>\n

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque made this remark after the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) disclosed that Hong Kong-registered bulk carrier vessel, MV Vienna Wood collided with local fishing vessel FV Liberty 5 on Sunday which resulted in at least 14 Filipinos gone missing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an issue of Philippine admiralty law because the collision occurred in Philippine territorial waters,\u201d Roque said in a virtual presser on Monday.<\/p>\n

Roque, a lawyer, said that because the incident happened in Philippine waters, international law will not apply.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no international law application here other than foreign flagships can sail through under the concept of innocent passage but as far as accountability is concerned,\u00a0mga Pilipino po magdedesisyon diyan dahil ang bangaan po ay nangyari sa ating karagatan<\/em>\u00a0(Filipinos will make the decision because the collision took place in our sea),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Roque said the sea mishap will have no implication on the relationship between the Philippines and China as well as other members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean).<\/p>\n

\u201cAng<\/em>\u00a0rules\u00a0ng banggaan sa karagatan, parehong-pareho po \u2018yan ng rules sa ina-<\/em>apply\u00a0pag may banggaan sa kalye.<\/em>\u00a0So\u00a0wala naman pong malaking implikasyon \u2018yan, banggaan lang po \u2018yan<\/em>\u00a0(The rules of collisions at seat are the same as rules being applied if there are collisions in the streets. There the collision has no huge implication, it\u2019s just a collision),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In the recently-concluded 36th annual Asean summit, President Rodrigo Duterte enjoined the other Asean members to look for \u201cinnovative\u201d ways to resolve the long-standing disputes in the resource-rich South China Sea.<\/p>\n

PCG spokesperson Commodore Armand Balilo said the foreign cargo vessel was sailing to Australia from Subic, while the fishing boat, which departed from Cagayan de Oro and Tawi-Tawi, was on its way to the Navotas Fish Port when the collision happened at 1 a.m.<\/p>\n

Coast Guard District Commander for Southern Tagalog Commodore Leovegildo Panopio said the PCG \u201cheld\u201d in the custody the foreign vessel and its crew \u201cbecause they have a liability.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said MV Vienna would be brought in the PCG\u2019s Batangas headquarters on Monday.<\/p>\n

In June 2019, Filipino fishing boat Gem-Ver 1, also from Occidental Mindoro, was rammed by a Chinese vessel at Recto Bank in the West Philippine Sea.<\/p>\n

A total of 22 Filipino fishermen from San Jose, Occidental Mindoro were subsequently rescued by a Vietnamese vessel and later transferred to a Philippine Navy ship.<\/p>\n
