NILIWANAG ng Chinese Embassy sa Pilipinas na hindi kasama ang Pilipinas sa “blacklisted” ng China, gaya nang naunang sinabi ni Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri.
“The report of ‘tourist blacklist’ is misinformation. China has not placed the Philippines on its blacklist for tourism,” pahayag ng Chinese Embassy.
Sa pagdinig ng Senate committee on ways and means nitong Martes, sinabi ni Zubiri na isinama na ng China ang Pilipinas sa mga “blacklisted” na tourist destination.
“Ambassador Huang [Xilian] said that the Philippines now is part of a blacklist of tourist sites because they do not know if the tourist going there will be operating or will be joining POGO operations,” ayon kay Zubiri.
