Nakiisa na rin ang mga student organizations sa Senado sa pagdedeklara kay Chinese Ambassador Jing Quan bilang “persona non grata” dahilan para hindi siya payagang makatuntong sa ilang paaralan sa iba’t ibang lugar ng bansa. “Our schools must remain spaces for learning, critical inquiry, and the defense of truth, freedom, and national dignity. They must never be used as platforms for intimidation or for advancing narratives that threaten Philippine sovereignty and our territorial integrity,” ayon sa joint statement ng Student Council Alliance of the Philipines (SCAP) at Akbayan Youth. Ito ay bunsod ng umano’y pambabastos at pananakot ni Ambassador Jing sa mga opisyal ng Pilipinas na nag-ugat sa pag-aangkin ng China sa West Philippine Sea (WPS). “China may have its so-called list, but we also have Jing Quan on our list,” giit ng mga estudyante. “The Filipino youth will not sit quietly as our fisherfolk and frontliners in the West Philippine Sea face harassment and our sovereignty is threatened,” giit nila. Kabilang sa mga paaralan na banned ang Chinese envoy ay University of the Philippines Diliman, University of the Philippines Cebu, University of the Philippines Baguio, Ateneo de Manila University, Ateneo de Zamboanga University, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Universidad de Manila, Philippine Normal University, Taguig City University, University of Caloocan City, Arellano University, University of San Carlos, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Muntinlupa, Rizal Technological University, Central Luzon State University, Bulacan State University, Pampanga State University, Holy Angel University, Palawan State University, Cavite State University, Adamson University, at Mindanao State University-General Santos City. #jingquan #studentcouncilalliancePH #WestPhilippineSea #Akbayan #PilipinasToday
