A classmate college of mine said his ship sailed thru the Batanes island group, and was hailed by the Taiwanese Coast Guard. He reminded the ROC-CG that he was in Philippine waters. He was told by the ROC-CG that he was in Taiwanese territory. My classmate's ship then responded that the were a U.S. Navy vessel. There was no response from the ROC-CG.

This seems to be just hearsay. Got any news article or official source to corroborate this???

I agree. I can also tell you now that my cousin's ship sailed thru Batanes Island and was apprehended by Taiwanese Coast Guard. He replied his ship belongs to the Australian Navy. So what's the difference, we are all just hear say. Kwentong barbero ika nga.. lol |

Taiwan President visits island in Spratlys January 28, 2016 PNA The Philippines on Thursday criticized the visit of outgoing Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou to Itu Aba, a Taiwanese held island in Spratly Islands in West Philippine Sea, as it could further fuel tension in the disputed waters. Reports said Ma flew to the Taiwan-claimed island on Thursday morning and is scheduled to hold a press briefing upon his return to Taipei. The US government already expressed disappointment over the trip, saying such move will not help ease tension in the area where several Asian nations have overlapping claims. Source |

Ma Ying Jieou's term ends in May. So he has still a couple of months more to kowtow to Beijing's will. |

More on the above: A last gesture by President Ma to reaffirm the ROC's claim to Spratlys; he leaves office this May when President Tsai begins her term. Unfortunately, some may see Taiwan's consolidating its claim on the area as helping to reinforce mainland China's claim as well, since Beijing still envisions eventual reunification and inheriting all of the ROC's claims.
