In 2019 the Philippines divided its waters into 12 "Fisheries Management areas", covering both its territorial waters and its exclusive economic zone. There are some good maps of the original 12 out there eg. and eg., but not to my knowledge one on Wikipedia. I am not even sure we have an svg of the EEZ, the standard image we use is the png above. One interesting note on that png is it includes the Benham Rise, which was annexed after the creation of the FMAs. Supposedly this area got its own FMA, and while I can't find a map of that or the primary legislatoin it likely should be labelled separately, perhaps as "Philippine Rise". An svg would be best due to this, for easy modification of the label. As for the original 12, the legislation is Fisheries Administrative Order 263 which includes the precise borders of all 12 areas by latitude and longitude. CMD (talk) 09:16, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

There seems to be KML data here but as the FoI portal is undergoing maintenance it is currently inaccessible. – Isochrone (talk) 16:37, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
