Vice President Jejomar C. Binay on Tuesday called on Malaysian Prime Minister Dato Sri Najib Tun Razak at the Prime Minister's office in Putrajaya. The meeting is the first high level, bilateral discussion between the two countries in five years.
Binay said Malaysia supports the Philippines' position that a resolution of the Panatag Shoal dispute with China should be based on the United Nations Convention on Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). He added that the Prime Minister also favors the participation of member-countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) who are also claimants to the Spratlys in talks to resolve the Panatag dispute.
