Palauig is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Zambales, Philippines. According to the 2000 census, it has a population of 29,983 people in 5,945 households. The municipality of Palauig is the nearest landmass to the Philippine-claimed EEZ, Scarborough Shoal (Panatag Shoal). It is said to be a designated part of the municipality; this proof only strengthens our claim to the Scarborough Shoal, through UNCLOS, which disproves China and Taiwan's claims.
