University of the Philippine website Hacked by Chinese Hacker hackers

Hackers entered the website of the number 1 university in the Philippines, the University of the Philippines (UP).

 The hackers put a map with Chinese scripts on it upon entering the website and highlighted islands in the South China Sea that are claimed by the Philippines and China.

 “We come from China! Huangyan Island is Ours” one of the script said. Huangyan is the Chinese name for the Scarborough Shoal, where the two countries have had vessels stationed for nearly two weeks in a standoff to assert their rival claims to the area. This hacking calls for immediate investigation. Foreign Affairs spokesperson Raul Hernandez suggested that the hacking is done by those people who are getting into the land claims.

 On Friday, the site was shut down to restore the site.But, as of the moment, the website is doing fine.
