(Manila / Beijing Composite Electric) The Philippines and China agree to establish a new communication channel to improve the dispute between the two sides of the South China Sea.

The Philippine Star News and Reuters reports that according to a document provided by the Philippine diplomatic sources, China and the Philippines will establish three communication channels. The first is the emergency hotline of the two heads of state, which can be designated by the leaders of the two countries.Representatives directly communicate; the second channel is used for the use of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs or their designated representatives; the third channel involves maritime police.

Sources said that the representatives of the Philippines and China held the ninth meeting of the Bilateral Consultation MeChanism (BCM) on July 2nd, signed a arrangement document on improving the Filipino Chinese Maritime Communication MechanismThe new communication channel is the content.The Philippine Ministry of Foreign Affairs is discussing this arrangement with the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Lin Jian was asked at a routine press conference on Wednesday (July 17) and said: "China is always committed to dealing with the Philippines properly with the Philippines through dialogue and negotiation."

He pointed out that at the ninth meeting of BCM, China and the Philippines discussed the improvement of the two countries' sea -related communication mechanisms."The two countries agree to further strengthen the communication between diplomatic and maritime police officers, and jointly maintain the stability of the maritime situation and the overall situation of China -Philippine relations."

China and the Philippines have sovereignty disputes in the South China Sea. The two countries collided from time to time in the controversial waters. The recent serious conflict was on June 17, causing eight Philippine soldiers to be injured.Representatives of the two countries later held bilateral meetings in Manila on July 2 to agree to ease and control the tensions of the South China Sea; Philippine President President Macos subsequently issued an order to ease the situation in the South China Sea.

In the past, the new mechanism of the conflict was not controlled by the communication channels.

China and the Philippines are not the first time to establish communication channels for the South China Sea dispute. The two countries have established an emergency telephone hotline at a lower level in the past, but it has not effectively controlled the confrontation upgrades of both parties and has been suspended.Therefore, some people question whether the new communication channel can achieve the expected results.

Akaipio, the retired judge of the Supreme Court of the Philippines, told Reuters that this could not resolve the South China Sea dispute.He said: "We don't know if they will answer our calls, we can only wait. It is good to have such channels, but we should not expect a miracle."
