Why do the Philippines claim the Spratly Islands?

Supposedly, the Philippines will not claim the Spratly Islands because it is within the Philippine waters. But other countries claim it and those countries claiming it are giants so the Philippines don't have any other choice than to contest instead of just giving an order to move out from the Philippine Territory. The disputed Spratlys are within the Philippine Waters. The Philippines is the legal owner of the islands in the Spratlys as it is within the 200 Nautical Mile Exclusive Economic Zone according to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)
