00:00China claims 3,000 hectares inside and outside the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone, the Philippine A.D.

00:09This includes Subi, or Zamora Reef, where the artificial island of China is located in an ancient city in the middle of the sea.

00:17Witness, Marisol Abdurrahman.

00:23In the past, it was just garbage. But now, buildings are growing and there are runways.

00:29Subi, or Zamora Reef, is just one of the four major bases of China in the South China Sea.

00:37They claimed 3,000 hectares of the sea. That's bigger than the city of Manila.

00:43The Philippine Navy cannot say how widely China has claimed within the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone.

00:50Is there a Philippine invasion? Yes. And this has begun since 1992.

00:54Their presence there is illegal. It has already been ruled by the arbitral tribunal.

00:59The Philippine Navy is also monitoring the Chinese survey ship that somehow left the Miss Chief, or Panganiban Reef, on July 27.

01:06It has sailed through areas within Sabina Shoal and the southern part of Sabina Shoal.

01:11We have informed the appropriate government agency about this.

01:14The presence in the area has also increased to find out if the people are the ones who are collecting the garbage there.

01:20Unusual pile-up of trash corals. The Philippine government deployed a ship to monitor the activity there.

01:29Its presence is longer than the usual presence that we do.

01:35As of now, the Chinese research vessel has not yet done an illegal monitoring.

01:40Although, the zigzag pattern of the course is suspicious.

01:43If you see an innocent passage or freedom of navigation, continuous and expeditious.

01:49If you are zigzagging, you are doing something else.

01:52Earlier this morning, the distance of the Sun House is 20 nautical miles from the Shoal,

01:57where the monster ship of the China Coast Guard is located.

02:00What do we do? Challenge and challenge and challenge? Yes.

02:03Just that? Yes. And if it warrants the filing of a diplomatic protest by the appropriate agency, in this case DFA,

02:10there is a procedure to give them all the data that they need.

02:13We are not being chased until we are challenged? Yes.

02:18Why? Why? We don't want to escalate the situation.
