MANILA — A high-level Philippine government council said Friday it has recommended to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to continue resupply missions in a beached naval vessel on a disputed atoll in the South China Sea.
Executive secretary Lucas Bersamin, who also chairs the national maritime council, said the council has recommended to keep the rotation and resupply missions to the BRP Sierra Madre “routinary and scheduled regularly”.
