00:00 A group of people who will not be released from the 30 Chinese maritime militia vessel in Rosorif
00:06 and inside our exclusive economic zone.
00:09 And that is what Chino Gaston is targeting.
00:12 [Music]
00:14 After the rubber boats of China and the Philippines,
00:19 which are said to be a show and a threat to the China Coast Guard
00:22 in the medical evacuation of the Philippine Coast Guard
00:24 in the BRP Sierra Madre in Iungin Shoal,
00:26 a group of people who will not be released from the 32 Chinese maritime militia vessel in Rosorif or Iroquois Reef
00:35 were seen in the satellite imaging of the social media post of security analyst Ray Powell.
00:39 The Philippine Coast Guard has pictures of the so-called swarming.
00:43 The militia vessels were even radio challenged by their BRP ship to go to the rescue.
00:48 But there was no response.
00:50 The militia vessels were not even fishing.
00:54 This is now monitored by the Philippine Navy and the Coast Guard.
00:57 Rosorif is inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
01:01 It is located in the eastern part of the Recto or Reed Bank
01:04 where the swarming of dead coral was seen.
01:08 While the Philippines and China continue to be a threat,
01:11 Vietnam continues to dredge or expand its occupied islands in the South China Sea.
01:17 The Bark Canada Reef almost doubled in size in 412 acres from the former 238 acres.
01:24 Expansion and construction of Discovery Great Reef, Namiet Island and Pearson Reef can also be seen.
01:30 In total, Vietnam claimed 692 acres or 280 hectares within 6 months.
01:39 These swarms, even outside our EEZ, are also being admitted by the Philippines
01:44 because it is part of the Free Island Group.
01:46 According to maritime law experts,
01:48 the Philippines has previously protested the island building of Vietnam to the Free Island Group.
01:55 Even though Vietnam's territory in the Philippines is not as big as China's.
02:00 Vietnam is not doing what China is doing to us.
02:02 We are able to talk to each other properly.
02:04 So it's a concern of course because it also has an impact.
02:09 According to the Philippine Coast Guard,
02:11 Vietnam is just reclaiming the maritime features that they already held before the 2002 Declaration of Conduct.
02:18 They are not being strict with the Filipino fishermen
02:21 and are sending ships to surround the outposts of the Philippines in the West Philippine Sea.
02:27 But according to Ray Powell,
02:28 it is possible that Vietnam is just implementing what China is doing in the Philippines.
02:34 In their logic, that was not in violation of the Declaration
02:38 because they were just improving the places that they already were.
02:44 Whereas they don't recognize the BRPCR Madre as being a legitimate occupation.
02:51 Meanwhile, National Security Advisor Eduardo Año called it crazy,
02:56 unethical and unacceptable
02:59 the statement of the Chinese Foreign Ministry
03:01 that the Philippines needs to take action
03:03 whenever there is a resupply mission to Ayungin Shoal
03:06 which is inside the EEZ of the country.
03:08 For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, 24 hours.
