00:00The National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea has condemned China's illegal and aggressive actions
00:07against the AFP and Philippine Coast Guard's RORI mission in Ayungin Shoal.
00:12It was put at the risk of the lives of people and resulted in the destruction of boats.
00:18Joseph Morong witnessed it.
00:23Once again, China and the Philippines' maritime vehicles reached the West Philippine Sea.
00:28An unidentified resupply vessel of the Philippines and a Chinese Coast Guard ship
00:32hit the water early this morning.
00:35According to the Chinese state-run TV network CGTN,
00:38the Philippine ship entered the Ayungin Shoal illegally,
00:42which they call the RENAY REEF.
00:44The CCG followed the control measures in accordance with the law.
00:48The CCG also said that the Philippine ship repeatedly ignored China's warnings
00:54and attempted to approach a Chinese ship in an unprofessional manner,
00:58which resulted in a wreck.
01:00The Philippines is the one who violated the international regulations
01:03for the prevention of collisions at sea
01:05and is to blame for the incident.
01:07I did not say if the ship was damaged or damaged,
01:10but according to a reliable source of GMA Integrated News,
01:14a soldier was injured in the incident,
01:17underwent a medical evacuation,
01:19and the soldier's condition is still unknown.
01:22The Armed Forces of the Philippines will not allow
01:24their illegal navigation of the China Coast Guard.
01:28We will not dignify the deceptive and misleading claims of the China Coast Guard.
01:33The main issue remains to be the illegal presence and actions of Chinese vessels
01:38within the Philippines' exclusive economic zone,
01:40which infringes on our sovereignty and sovereign rights.
01:44The continued aggressive actions of the CCG
01:47are escalating tensions in the region.
01:49In a statement last night,
01:51the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea
01:54condemned the illegal and aggressive actions of the China Maritime Forces
01:57that the China Coast Guard is involved in.
01:59It put the lives of personnel at risk
02:03and resulted in the wreckage of ships.
02:05The AFP and the Philippine Coast Guard joined forces
02:08for this routine rotation and resupply mission.
02:10The task force added that the personnel remained professional
02:14and avoided increasing tensions.
02:17Defense Secretary Gilbert Chedoro said
02:19that the AFP will continue to fight
02:21the aggressive and misleading actions of China in the West Philippine Sea.
02:25The CCG will continue to guard other parts of the West Philippine Sea.
02:29In the middle of the China Strait,
02:31the Chinese are being caught entering their own territory.
02:35The CCG sent the BRP Sindangan and BRP Malapascua
02:39to guard the Filipino fishermen in Bajo de Macindok.
02:43As of now, there are no arrests against the Filipinos.
02:47There is no prohibition for us to fish in Bajo de Macindok.
02:52That is why the Philippine Coast Guard ships
02:56continue to patrol.
02:59Our advice is to avoid,
03:03especially the small groups
03:06of Filipinos who come to fish
03:12in the Philippine Coast Guard vessels.
03:17For GMA Integrated News,
03:19I am Joseph Morong, your witness.
03:22My fellow Filipinos, let's be witnesses together.
