On Monday, Locsin told China in a tweet to "get the f--- out" as the two countries engaged in a war of words over the South China Sea.

Bajo de Masinloc, also known as Scarborough Shoal, is a chain of reefs in the South China Sea that lies around 120 nautical miles from the nearest Philippine coast and 470 nautical miles from the nearest coast of China.
