Filipino Patrols

Jonathan Almandrez was chased away from the rich fishing grounds of a South China Sea lagoon by a Chinese patrol -- something he hopes will stop happening if the Philippines wins an international legal case against Beijing.

Japan and the Philippines flew patrol planes near disputed South China Sea waters for the second straight day today, defying Chinese warnings.

The Philippines is buying nearly 100 new patrol boats to protect its fisheries, an official said today, in a substantial expansion from its current fleet of 20 as it responds to poaching by Chinese and Taiwanese vessels.

A lethal women commando squad trained in Filipino martial art and capable of neutralising a threat using innocuous objects like pen or hairpin would now patrol coaches and stations of Delhi Metro to ensure safety of passengers, especially women.
