Transcript
00:00 The security for the ASEAN Coast Guard Forum in Davao is now secure.
00:06 The Philippine Coast Guard has blocked the first and most modern offshore patrol vessel of the PCG as part of the security.
00:19 This is what Regine Lanuza reported.
00:21 The Philippine Coast Guard's BRP Gabriela Silang arrived in Davao City on Tuesday afternoon. The ship is said to be one of the biggest facilities of the Coast Guard because it can be used in a modern way.
00:36 According to the captain of the ship, Captain Lawrence Roque, this is the first offshore patrol vessel of the Coast Guard.
00:43 The ship is said to be from France and commissioned here in the Philippines in 2020. It has a width of more than 83 meters and has a 360-degree view glass window.
00:57 It is a hybrid run because it can run on electric and diesel engines. It also has automatic fins that automatically come out when the waves are strong.
01:08 Aside from this, it also has its own morgue, cage, helipad, two rigid hull inflatable boat, decompression chamber and other facilities.
01:19 The ship is said to have been destined several times to the West Philippine Sea.
01:24 We escorted a hydrographer vessel of the Philippines and we went to Bajo de Masindok. We protected the vessel so that it would not be harassed.
01:41 So my action during that time is to protect the vessel so that it would not be harassed or watered by Chinese vessels.
01:53 Meanwhile, according to Coast Guard District Southeastern Mindanao Commander, Commodore Richard Marfe,
02:00 the ship is said to be in Lungsod for an ASEAN Coast Guard Forum next month.
02:06 It will help in monitoring the safety of the vessels that will be transported to the Philippines.
02:11 Meanwhile, it is expected to discuss the problem in the West Philippine Sea and the monitoring of the borders.
02:19 Our aim is to have a more strengthened collaboration with our neighboring countries in Southeast Asia
02:28 so that we can approach our problem as a whole.
02:36 Coast Guard District Southeastern Mindanao assured that they are ready for the hosting of the international event.
02:44 Regine Lenuza for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
