It is reported that there has been a dispute between China and the Philippines due to the placement of a “floating barrier” in the South China Sea.
The Chinese Coast Guard installed the “floating barrier” and the Philippines says it has made it impossible for its fishermen to go to sea to catch fish.
There are disputes between the two countries regarding the boundaries of the South China Sea and it is said that the region called Bajo de Masinloc is known as a very fertile and fish-rich area.
The Philippine authorities previously accused China of destroying the coral reefs in the region, but China denied the allegations.
