President calls on China to notify PH of rocket launch
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Aug. 8, 2025 calls on China to notify the Philippines before launching its rocket to avoid risks and allow authorities to recover them safely. Marcos issued the statement after China launched its Long March 12 rocket on Aug. 4, which left debris within Philippine maritime territory. During an interview with the Philippine media delegation covering his state visit to India, the President said this was not the first time suspected Chinese rocket debris had ended up in Philippine waters.
