Dozens of Japanese warships that were sunk during World War II have since been found in the Philippines.

What's the point of this? Sunken warships are cemeteries. There are well over 100 U.S. Navy ships on the bottom of the Pacific that were sunk by the Japanese. Let them all be.

Merely visiting a sunken warship is no different, IMO, to visiting a cemetery and paying respects to those who are buried there. Trying to raise such a ship, OTOH, to me would be akin to exhuming a dead body.
