The date also marks the second anniversary the Philippines v. China international arbitration case was decided on. The case ruled on the People's Republic of China's claims over the South China Sea. The identity on those responsible for the creation or installation of the banners were unknown. Background{{see also|Philippines v. China}}Banner descriptionThe tarpaulin banners were red and features the Flag of the People's Republic of China flanked with two dragons. It also displays the text "Welcome to the Philippines, Province of China" in white letters[1] presenting the Southeast Asian country as a province of the People's Republic of China.[2] It also features Chinese text in yellow characters below the English text which loosely translates to "Welcome to China’s Philippines".[1]Traditional Chinese characters were used which are not used widely in Mainland China.[3] The banners' text appears as possible reference to a joke made by Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte of offering the country as a province of its larger northern neighbor in a forum of Chinese Filipino businessmen on February 2018.[2][4] No group or individual has claimed responsibility for the banners.[2] Public displayInstallationThe tarpaulin banners were reportedly seen hanging on footbridges in various parts of Metro Manila on July 12, 2018, exactly two years since the Permanent Court of Arbitration ruled in favor of the Philippines regarding the Philippines v. China arbitration case concerning China's nine dash-line claim over the South China Sea. The international court has ruled the claim as having no legal basis. The government under the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte decided to set aside the ruling to improve economic and political ties with the People's Republic of China.[4] At the time when the banners were publicly installed, a Chinese delegation is present in Metro Manila for an annually held incentive tour though delegates were not scheduled to passed through the area where the banners were installed.[9] Banners were reportedly hang on sides of pedestrian footbridges on:[1]
DismantlementThe tarpaulins were later removed on the same day by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) with cooperation with concerned local government units and the police since the MMDA did not give permission for the banners' installation on footbridges.[5] ReceptionOfficial responsePhilippine national governmentThe Philippine national government through then-Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque has alleged that enemies of the government were behind the installation of the banners adding that the government has "nothing to gain" by doing such. He speculated that the act of installing the banners was a means of provocation to push a claim that the national government has given up its territory and insists that the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte will continue to assert the country's sovereignty and sovereign rights. Roque has also said that the Duterte administration's friendly approach towards China despite the ongoing disputes in the South China Sea has lessened tensions in the region and gave way for confidence building talks between the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and China.[6] Chinese responseZhao Jianhua, China's ambassador to the Philippines said the Philippines will never be "any part of China" and called the installation of the banners as a "vicious attack" the bilateral relations of China and the Philippines.[7]OtherThere were mixed response regarding the banners in social media from both supporters and critics of the Philippine government. Supporters has alleged that the banners were an attack on the government. There was speculation that the banners was a satirical response to the Duterte administration's policy in dealing with China.[1] Edwin Lacierda, presidential spokesperson of Duterte's predecessor Benigno Aquino III while hailing the previous administration's efforts in the Philippines v. China case expressed disbelief regarding the banners.[1]Florin Hilbay, former Solicitor General who played a key role in the Philippines v. China arbitration case called the banners a creative form of protest and says that these were reflective on how the Philippine government's policy towards China drastically changed in just two years while urging the government to assert the country's sovereignty against what he calls China's militarization of the South China Sea.[8]References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite news |last1=Avendaño |first1=Christine |last2=Subingsubing |first2=Krixia |title=Banners not funny to some but satirical to others |url=https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1009892/banners-not-funny-to-some-but-satirical-to-others |accessdate=25 November 2018 |work=Philippine Daily Inquirer |date=13 July 2018}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite news |title='Philippines, Province of China' signs stir anger on anniversary of arbitration win |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-philippines-china-southchinasea/philippines-province-of-china-signs-stir-anger-on-anniversary-of-arbitration-win-idUKKBN1K20ON |accessdate=25 November 2018 |agency=Reuters |date=12 July 2018}} 3. ^{{cite news |title='Philippines, Province of China' Banners Appear on Two-Year Anniversary of South China Sea Ruling |url=https://www.news.com.au/video/id-5348771529001-5808571809001/philippines-province-of-china-banners-appear-on-twoyear-anniversary-of-south-china-sea-ruling |accessdate=25 November 2018 |work=News.com.au |date=12 July 2018}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |title=Banners welcome visitors to 'Philippines, province of China' |url=https://www.philstar.com/headlines/2018/07/12/1832876/banners-welcome-visitors-philippines-province-china |accessdate=25 November 2018 |work=Philippine Star |date=12 July 2018}} 5. ^1 {{cite news |last1=Pateña |first1=Aerol John |title='Welcome to PH, Province of China' tarps removed |url=http://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1041306 |accessdate=25 November 2018 |agency=Philippine News Agency |date=12 July 2018}} 6. ^{{cite news |last1=Musico |first1=Jelly |title=Enemies behind ‘PH, Province of China’ banners: Palace |url=http://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1041319 |accessdate=25 November 2018 |agency=Philippine News Agency |date=12 July 2018}} 7. ^{{cite news |title=Chinese envoy: PH will never be a part of China |url=http://cnnphilippines.com/news/2018/07/17/Philippines-Province-of-China-banner.html |accessdate=25 November 2018 |work=CNN Philippines |date=17 July 2018}} 8. ^{{cite news |title='Province of China' banners a form of creative protest, former SolGen says |url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/07/13/18/province-of-china-banners-a-form-of-creative-protest-former-solgen-says |accessdate=25 November 2018 |work=ABS-CBN News |date=13 July 2018}} 5 : 2018 introductions|China–Philippines relations|Presidency of Rodrigo Duterte|Satirical works|Protests in the Philippines |
