Another successful rotation and reprovisioning (RoRe) mission in our post in Ayungin Shoal was completed today, September 8.

This tactical operation is a manifestation of our firm resolve to assert our sovereign rights and jurisdiction in our maritime zones, and the fulfillment of our responsibility to look after the well being of our soldiers who are stationed not only in Ayungin Shoal, but in every remote post in the country. The unprofessional act and dangerous maneuvers conducted by the China Coast Guard and its maritime militia will never prevail over our conduct of legal and legitimate operations that support rules-based international order.

We express our deep appreciation to the guidance of the NTF-WPS and the ever reliable support of the Philippine Coast Guard in accomplishing this mission. With the strong support of our people, we will succeed.///
