00:00 The Philippine Coast Guard has removed the buoys that were blocked by China in Bajo de Masinloc,

00:06 which is in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.

00:09 It is also evident that the Chinese Coast Guard is doing a lot of damage to the Filipino fishermen.

00:14 Witnesses are Joseph Morong and Rafi Tima.

00:17 The Chinese fishermen are not afraid of the fast rubber boats of China.

00:26 The Chinese fisherman was caught by a small boat. He almost got caught by a boat.

00:31 He just wants to get into Bajo de Masinloc to fish while the BROFB is watching.

00:41 "Are you not afraid?"

00:42 "No, I'm not afraid. I'm just laughing at them. They are just laughing at me."

00:46 On September 20, the Chinese Coast Guard also repeatedly hit the boat of BIFAR.

00:52 "This is what the Philippine Coast Guard calls a dangerous maneuver that the Chinese Coast Guard does

00:56 whenever they encounter the Philippine ships.

00:59 Our vehicle is very close to the big ships of the Chinese Coast Guard.

01:03 And because we are in the ocean, accidents can happen at this close distance."

01:08 BIFAR also hit the boat and anchored 300 meters away from Bajo de Masinloc

01:13 to provide assistance to the fishermen.

01:16 Bajo de Masinloc is inside the 200-kilometer exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.

01:21 But China said that the boat of BIFAR was trespassing.

01:25 Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said that the Chinese Coast Guard

01:29 just made the necessary measures to stop and remove the boat that is against the law.

01:35 Aside from the closed doors of the Chinese ships,

01:38 the entrance of the boat was also blocked by unusual fences.

01:42 "The sand is very thick and there is a net underneath.

01:49 And the heavy things on the sides are chains, nails.

01:55 This is what is blocking the entrance of the boat to Bajo de Masinloc.

02:01 This is where the Filipino fishermen used to pass when they fish in the bay.

02:06 So, if the weather is bad, they would hide and anchor inside the bay.

02:10 But now, there is a misted gate here at the entrance."

02:15 "They are using a floating barrier to prevent the Filipino fishermen from entering the bay."

02:23 According to the Foreign Affairs Department,

02:25 China's placement of floating barriers in Bajo de Masinloc is wrong

02:29 and China has no right to do so.

02:31 So, the Philippines will do what it should do

02:34 to protect our sovereignty and the livelihood of the fishermen.

02:38 The placement of Chinese barriers was condemned by National Security Advisor Eduardo Año.

02:43 He opposed it in the traditional fishing rights of the country

02:46 that was established in the 2016 Arbitral Tribunal Award.

02:49 According to Commodore J. Tariella, PCG spokesperson on the West Philippine Sea,

02:54 they were able to remove the floating barriers

02:56 in accordance with the order of President Bongbong Marcos.

02:59 In Sandy Cay 2, which is only 6 kilometers away from Pagasa Island,

03:05 there were many dead and broken corals.

03:08 The four sandy cays are near Pagasa Island,

03:13 which is being guarded by the China Coast Guard and the Chinese Maritime Militia.

03:21 This Friday, a Chinese ship was used to transport the corals to Sandy Cay 2.

03:27 The discovery of dead corals in Sandy Cay 2

03:31 is just the second of the discovery of dead corals in Escoda Shoal and Rosal Reef.

03:38 Because China called the political drama of the death of corals vulgar,

03:42 the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea will investigate

03:46 what happened and what camp was behind the collision of the broken corals in Sandy Cay 2.

03:51 The first thing we must do is due diligence.

03:54 Let's investigate and find out what the circumstances were.

03:59 According to Maritime Law Expert Professor J. Batong-Bacal,

04:03 someone was on board in Sandy Cay 2 when they went there in 2021.

04:07 Assuming it's natural, that indicates that there was a widespread loss of coral in the area and it was flooded.

04:18 We are asking for the permission of the AFP Western Command and the Chinese Embassy.

04:22 It's a Cog 9 but they haven't been notified yet.

04:24 For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Moro, I am Rafi Tima, your "Saksi".
