A front-page commentary said that the Philippines had committed ‘seven sins’ in the South China Sea. These include the ‘illegal occupation’ of the Spratly Islands, inviting foreign capital to engage in oil and gas development in the disputed waters and promoting the ‘internationalization’ of the waters, said the commentary.
