Transcript

00:00 Senators have called the new Chinese invasion of Philippine ships in the West Philippine Sea

00:06 "a heartless act of some senators"

00:09 "who, aside from violating international law, also violated human rights."

00:15 That's what Daniel Manalastas wrote.

00:17 Some senators' PC is getting smaller

00:22 following the new incident in the West Philippine Sea

00:25 in the bombing of Chinese ships in the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources

00:31 while on a resupply mission in the Bajo de Masinloc.

00:34 That's why some senators are calling for the Chinese ambassador to return to their country.

00:40 He should be the diplomatic line,

00:45 he should be the line to ease the tension because of the current circumstances.

00:50 But what's happening is he's still pouring gasoline.

00:52 My message to Ambassador Weychalla of Pujao is

00:55 "Go home, you're not good here."

00:59 According to Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri,

01:02 the Chinese ambassador did nothing to stop the next attacks on the Philippine Navy.

01:09 Zubiri also called China "a heartless act"

01:12 following the recent clashes.

01:14 Senator Bato de la Rosa again insisted that Philippine ships

01:20 can replace the Chinese ships.

01:22 We should give our ships water cannons to fight.

01:28 Maybe they will feel that we're fighting.

01:32 We should fight water to water.

01:34 If we're going to use lasers,

01:35 we should equip our cruise guard with lasers to fight.

01:41 We can't be forever like this, like a cat that's avoiding a cat.

01:48 According to Senate Majority Leader Jovel Villanueva,

01:51 China has no right to use water cannons on our sea vehicles,

01:56 to make dangerous maneuvers,

01:58 and to block humanitarian missions of the country.

02:01 Senator Grace Poe said that China is violating international law.

02:06 Despite the incidents,

02:08 the senator called for not listening

02:11 and to back down on protecting our territories.

02:14 For Senator Jingui Estrada,

02:17 it's clear that human rights, sea law,

02:21 and showing the lack of respect for the sovereignty of the Philippines

02:25 are the mistakes of China.

02:27 Daniel Manalastas for the nation.
