Territorial Disputes: Philippines claims sovereignty over
certain of the Spratly Islands,
known locally as the Kalayaan (Freedom) Islands, also claimed by China,
Malaysia, Taiwan, and Vietnam; the 2002 "Declaration on the Conduct of
Parties in the South China Sea," has eased tensions in the Spratly Islands
but falls short of a legally binding "code of conduct" desired by several
of the disputants; in Mar 2005, the national oil companies of China, the
Philippines, and Vietnam signed a joint accord to conduct marine seismic
activities in the Spratly Islands; Philippines retains a dormant claim
to Malaysia's Sabah State in northern
Borneo based on the Sultanate of Sulu's granting the Philippines Government
power of attorney to pursue a sovereignty claim on his behalf; maritime delimitation negotiations continue with Palau.
