Philippine National Police (PNP) public information officer Brig. Gen. Jean Fajardo said Marcos issued the directive at the 2nd Joint National Peace and Order Council (NPOC)-Regional Peace and Order Councils meeting at Camp Crame yesterday. While there was no mention of China, the President was apparently referring to the country's hostile neighbor, whose coast guard and naval forces had repeatedly harassed Filipino vessels.
"The President said we should refrain from provocative stance in the West Philippine Sea so as not escalate tension," Fajardo said at a briefing.
Fajardo said Armed Forces of the Philippines chief Gen. Romeo Brawner and other ranking military commanders were present during the meeting at Camp Crame.
Also present were PNP officials, governors and some mayors in Metro Manila.
