Original Note:
It is not a disputed shoal when the area is within the Philippine's territory, 120 nautical miles from the mainland in contrast to China's distance of 594 nautical miles. This headline is implying that it is within the South China Sea when it is clearly not. https://amti.csis.org/scarborough-shoal/ https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/9/26/what-set-off-the-latest-south-china-sea-row-between-china-and-philippines https://www.irasec.com/IMG/UserFiles/Files/04_Publications/Notes/Geopolitics_of_Scarborough_Shoal.pdf
