Carpio: Gentleman's Agreement With China to Let Ayungin Shoal Outpost Decay is Treasonous
- Retired Justice Carpio says "gentleman's agreement" allows China to take control of Ayungin Shoal as BRP Sierra Madre decays
- Agreement means Philippines will not supply or repair Sierra Madre, leading to its eventual sinking
- Carpio says this is equivalent to giving up Philippines' lone outpost at Ayungin Shoal
- Carpio supports legislative inquiry into agreement, says it's against national interest
- Calls agreement "treasonous", says law should impose imprisonment for such actions in peacetime
