In this photo taken May 16, 2015, Filipino fishermen sit at a meeting in Masinloc municipality in the northwestern province of Zambales where they, along with foreign journalists and local officials, attended the forum organized by Zambales and Masinloc officials on the South China Sea territorial disputes. Many Filipino fishermen in Masinloc say their livelihoods were affected over the disputed Scarborough Shoal off Zambales in 2012, affecting Filipino fishermen’s access to fishing waters. A group of 15 foreign journalists traveled to Masinloc under a study tour organized by the Hawaii based East West Center last month to look into the impact of the South China Sea territorial disputes on fishermen like Mula.
