North Sydney, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2018) - FEC RESOURCES INC. (OTC Pink: FECOF) ("FEC") advises shareholders of reports in the media about a memorandum of understanding (the "MOU") entered into between the Philippines and China related to the joint exploration for energy resources in the West Philippine Sea. Media reports indicate that the MOU was entered into during President Xi Jinping's visit to the Philippines and that the MOU was an "exploration to find a solution" on how the Philippines could enjoy resources in the area. Media reports also indicate that the MOU does not refer to specific geographic areas in the West Philippine Sea where joint exploration for oil and gas would be conducted. FEC has not been provided with a copy of the MOU and to the best of FEC's knowledge, the situation regarding SC 72 remains unchanged and the force majeure with respect to exploration of SC 72 remains in place.

On behalf of the Board of,

FEC Resources Inc.
