Youth leaders under the Alyansa Bantay Kapayapaan at Kaunlaran (ABKD) stage a pre-SONA peace rally at the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) in Commonwealth Avenue, Quezon City on July 20, 2024, during which they presented the score cards of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. and China in relation to the West Philippine Sea territorial disputes. Rodolfo ‘RJ’ Villena Jr., ABKD convenor and spokesman, said youth leaders gave President Marcos a score of 90 percent for asserting the sovereign rights of the country over the West Philippine Sea while they gave China 70 percent for disrespecting the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (Unclos) and for employing ‘bullying tactics’ against Philippine vessels.
