Description:

As tension in the West Philippine Sea continues, Filipino fishermen revealed that Chinese vessels are mass harvesting giant clams in Scarborough Shoal. When Michael Bernal's small boat came back from spear-fishing one morning, his catch was noticeably smaller than the day before. When asked for the reason, he said it may be because of the cloudy water due to people scouring for giant clams in the area.
