Answer:
Question: why is it important that Philippines should claim the West Philippines Sea
Answers:
#The administrative order asserts the Philippine claim over its EEZ in the South China Sea which conveys the Philippine government's position that it has sovereign rights under the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea over the West Philippine Sea area.
#The West Philippine Sea is said to have abundant aquatic and fishery resources, and natural gas fields. It has great potential to be one of the country's sources of natural gas and cheaper electricity, which could ultimately address energy security concerns of the Philippines.
