00:00One of the largest ships of the China Coast Guard was spotted in the canlura of Panatagsyol.
00:06And based on the satellite image released by a security expert,
00:10this includes another ship that was previously docked in one of the Philippine resupply boats in the West Philippine Sea.
00:17The ships were spotted by China's joint drills around Taiwan.
00:23Chino Gaston is a witness.
00:25Three days after the appointment of the new president of Taiwan, Lai Ching-Teh,
00:34the war games between China on the Taiwan Strait and around Taiwan lasted for two days.
00:40According to the spokesperson of the Chinese Eastern Theater Command,
00:43aside from the drills on how to surround Taiwan with ships and airplanes,
00:49it is a violation of the Annihilized Separatist Acts of Taiwan and also a threat to foreign invaders.
00:56China considers Taiwan as its territory, which is not recognized by Taiwan.
01:02China first passed the inauguration speech of Lai,
01:06where he urged China to stop its aggression.
01:10China's state broadcaster released a simulation
01:14of how the ships will surround the island and how the missiles will hit.
01:20In the middle of China's military drills,
01:22fighter jets flew over Taiwan and deployed mobile air defense systems and surveillance drones.
01:30The Taiwan Coast Guard also radioed the Chinese ships that were close to their border.
01:38According to a senior security official of Taiwan,
01:41Chinese bombers made mock attacks on ships in the eastern part of the Bashi Channel,
01:47which is separated from Taiwan and the Philippines.
01:50We do not want to speculate, but we are also on our end monitoring the situation.
01:55Anything that transpires around us should be watched keenly and observed
02:02because it may or may not have an effect on us.
02:06Based on the satellite image posted by the security expert, Ray Powell,
02:11two Chinese ships were spotted in the Canura of Panatagchon or Bajo de Masinloc,
02:17which is still part of our Exclusive Economic Zone.
02:20One is the Coast Guard Vessel 5901, which is one of their largest ships.
02:25The other is the Coast Guard Vessel 5203,
02:29which was previously docked in one of the resupply boats in Ayungin in October 2023.
02:35It is 50 nautical miles from Bajo de Masinloc.
02:38The actions, the response will be at the NTF-WPS level.
02:42It's a Chinese Coast Guard ship,
02:44and there will be appropriate response from the NTF, most likely the Philippine Coast Guard.
02:50Earlier, Noli De Los Santos, who was emotionally facing a public consultation by the camera,
02:55was fishing from Masinloc Zambales.
02:58Their previous successful fishing in Panatagchon is now impossible
03:03because of the tight security in the area.
03:06Who will help us?
03:09When it comes to elections, you know us.
03:12When it comes to problems, you don't know us.
03:14What to do?
03:15This is what I'm saying.
03:18This is what I'm saying.
03:19This is what I'm saying from the bottom of my heart.
03:21This is what I'm saying.
03:22We are having a hard time.
03:24We don't have enough aid.
03:26We only need a free fisherman.
03:28Thank you very much.
03:30Like the resupply missions and maritime patrols,
03:33which are also known as water cannons,
03:35they are also being robbed of their catch.
03:37They are taking our fishermen's catch.
03:41They are taking their catch.
03:45They are not friendly.
03:46That's the only thing our fishermen are taking home.
03:49And what they are exchanging is 5 kilos of noodles
03:53that they are giving as expired.
03:56In addition to their robbery,
03:58China's Coast Guard was ordered to arrest those who entered the border of China
04:04in the sea since June 15.
04:06I believe what a provocation is,
04:10is the roguish and irresponsible threat
04:14to detain quote-unquote trespassers
04:18in what is claimed as internal water
04:22but is actually part of the high seas
04:26and part of the West Philippine Seas by a country.
04:30Such behavior is not only a violation of UNCLOS
04:35but also a violation of the precepts of the United Nations Charter.
04:41According to Secretary Teodoro,
04:43the desire to commit deterrence against foreign countries
04:47is a mission that does not stop
04:49and requires the continuous addition of military equipment,
04:53capabilities, and coordination with our allies.
