Will the Philippines succeed in its case at ICJ against China for Extended Continental Shelf?

  • In 2012, the United Nations recognized Benham Rise as part of the Philippines' extended continental shelf, uncontested by China. Recently, the Philippines submitted a new claim for an extended continental shelf in the South China Sea, emphasizing their exclusive right to explore and exploit natural resources. This region is marked by increasing maritime conflicts, particularly with China, whose expansive claims overlap with those of the Philippines and other nations. Despite a 2016 ruling by the Permanent Court of Arbitration invalidating China's claims, Beijing disputes the decision. Rising tensions have seen Chinese ships assaulting Philippine vessels, raising concerns of armed conflict. Initially seeking economic benefits from China, former President Duterte downplayed the tribunal's ruling. His successor, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., strengthened ties with the US after failed investments and continued Chinese aggression. The EU has increased support for the Philippines, promoting regional cooperation. China's rejection of the Philippines' recent claim highlights the complexity of maritime disputes and the need for diplomatic resolutions. Establishing maritime boundaries is crucial for securing resources and preventing conflicts. Like, comment, and subscribe for more in-depth coverage of global economies and geopolitics.

    • @hopelope1703

      Sulu/PH needs to resolve 3 legal aspects before making any claim on Sabah from Malaysia. Firstly, Sulu needs to show undisputable proof that earlier, the Brunei Sultanate (original owner) gave North Borneo (Sabah) to Sulu as a gift for assisting in Brunei’s civil war. This is to rebuke the existence of the 29/12/1877 agreement (consisting of 4 agreements) signed by the Brunei Sultanate that grants the whole of North Borneo to the British North Borneo Company (BNBC). These agreements exist and are kept at the National Archives in London. The word “grant” has been used, and it has never been challenged or protested by Brunei, even when the British turned North Borneo into a British Charter (1881), Protectorate (1888), Colony (1946), and finally British Parliament under the Malaysia Act 1963 incorporate it into Malaysia. Secondly, let's assume North Borneo belongs to Sulu. The Sultanate of Sulu signed many agreements to relinquish his territories and dependencies (including North Borneo) to the colonizers. These include the Bases of Peace and Capitulation Agreement with Spain on 22/7/1878 and the Carpenter Agreement on 22/3/1915 with the US. Later Spain and the US relinquished North Borneo under the Madrid Protocol of 1885 and Anglo-US Border Convention 1930 to the British respectively. In the end, Sulu has nothing. Thirdly, PH claims North Borneo (Sabah) is null and void. For any colonized colony that seeks independence, the territory (sovereignty) is based on what has been given by their colonizer. In this regard, the principle of uti posseditis juris is applicable, acceptable, and recognized internationally. PH got their independence from the US in 1946 and under this principle, there is NO North Borneo. Rebut with facts and references. Not hearsay. The UN has recognized Sabah in Malaysia since 1963.

    this extended continental shelf by Philippines should be secondary claim the primary claim should be the "Uti Possidestis Juris Principle/Doctrine" because China and other claimants summited in the Permanent Court of Arbitration recognizing the 3 treaties govern Philippine Territory especially the Treaty of Washington of 1900 in which immensely aided Philippines claim in essence China & other claimant becomes party to the Treaty of Washington 1900 & bound & party to the treaty so all of them cannot deny that Spratly islands/rocks & state of Sabah are belong to Philippine territory especially Malaysia who is now double bound to the treaty of Washington 1900 1st inherited from the British 2nd in UNCLOS maritime dispute between China & PH so the Philippines can now assert as the sole valid claimant of large part of the South China Sea so the issue of who claims who everyone except the Philippines is false claimant, Trespassing & illegal occupation of sovereign territory

      How is the Philippines being a “false claimant” if the 1982 UNCLOS entitles the Philippines 200 nm for fishing and sea bed resources from its coastline and the entitlement of another 150 nm based on geologic/geomorphic proof which it has in the submittal? Are you sure China isnt practicing malevolent distractive tactics to wear down the Philippines so it will in the end give in and allow China a lion share of its natural resources which China covets? This seems to be very clear specially when we consider China’s irreversible and humongous economic upheaval, repetitive natural tempests, unmitigating diseases and self-collapsing edifices and infrastructures. It does appear China's behavior thus far are the result of actions of a desperate and proud country who is looking for an undeserved payback to save themselves from a coming oblivion which they themselves created.

That means they show up with their big coast guard ships or with numerical superiority and flaunt their large number of warships. That is their logic and it includes Taiwan the country who’ve always been under seige. I hope they see the Philippine Military as a rising regional power and they will soon be challenged.

    Any arbitral ruling needs to be attended and agreed by all the parties involved in order to be valid. China did not attend or agree to the ruling.
    By this same logic, you can't hire a few retired judges and lease a court room to rule that you now own the house down the street.
    The fact that the arbitral ruling was 'created' in 2016 clearly implies that the island was owned by China before 2016 and the Philippines is the one claiming the island as their own.
    I am by no means an expert in the international maritime laws. I am just giving my humble opinion based on what you said in your video.
