Keep geopolitics out of marine science
The politicization of marine scientific research is undermining the very cooperation needed to protect the oceans. Recently, some Philippine commentators have portrayed China's marine research activities near Huangyan Island and elsewhere in the South China Sea as potential "military threats". They have coined the term "ghost research ships", suggesting that routine scientific work is linked to military operations, submarine navigation and even anti-submarine warfare. By intertwining technological possibilities, the sensitivity of the locations and existing geopolitical tensions, they have crafted a narrative that misrepresents China's marine research as a "security concern". These claims lack supporting evidence and run counter to the international community's shared interest in advancing ocean science and protecting the marine environment.
