PNoy to seek support in Japan

PNoy began his 4-day visit to Japan for further investment tie-up with Japan and ask support for the country’s opposition to China’s land reclamation in the South China Sea.

The US had ordered Japan’s military to keep an eye in the waters near the coasts of the Philippines, Vietnam and other Asian neighbors, which all have competing claims to the said sea.

However, Chinese military ordered the US Navy P-8 Poseidon surveillance plane to leave the area above the Spratly Island last month but the US plane ignored this demand since it was flying in international airspace, they claimed.
