00:00 Highlighting or putting in the media incidents in the South China Sea is

00:05 precisely a part of our democracy and it's merely trying to inform the people

00:09 of what's going on. And some countries or one country at least has had some

00:15 difficulty with that but our simple explanation is if you would stop

00:19 harassing us and perhaps performing other actions there wouldn't be any news

00:28 to report. In the event of any escalation it's important that we seek to find ways

00:34 to to let's say prevent such escalation by rising from raising tensions in the

00:41 area. But certainly while the Philippines is committed to a peaceful resolution of

00:48 disputes through diplomatic means or peaceful means this will not be done at

00:54 the expense of our national interest.

00:58 Thank you.
