CHINESE vessels have already left the disputed Scarborough Shoal off Zambales, more than four years after gaining control of the rich fishing ground, Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenza said Friday.
"That's the report we got from our Coast Guard. Since three days ago, there are no longer Chinese ships, Coast Guard or Navy, in the Scarborough area," said Lorenzana.
Lorenzana said Filipino fishermen can now resume fishing activities at the shoal, also known as Panatag Shoal, which is about 124 nautical miles from Iba, Zambales.

I would imagine that means that the Chinese have now removed every life form from the sea bed... and have moved on to find another ecosystem to ruin.
