Just a nice Picture of the BRP Emilio Jacinto (PS-35) Vessel of the Philippine Navy (PN), it is the Lead Ship of the Jacinto-class Vessels. The Picture was taken during its Send Off Ceremony at the Soiltech Pier in San Fernando, La Union to Patrol the Philippine Rise.
The Patrol also was in celebration of the 8th Anniversary of the official renaming of the former "Benham Rise" to the Philippine Rise back in 2017. As I said before, though, I am disappointed in the Fact that despite nearly a Decade after its renaming, still no Drilling for Resources has been done in that Area.
All it is being used now is for Propaganda Purposes against China. Since we claim in, then we should find a Way to exploit the Natural Resources there, and not just use it for Propaganda.
