00:00Aside from the cut off radio challenge of the Chinese Navy,

00:03the smell of gunpowder and gunpowder shells was not stopped

00:06by the arrival of our aircraft,

00:09Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources or BFAR,

00:12along with the China Coast Guard 3305

00:15that was spotted in Bukhanan, Pahura.

00:19Although there are more Chinese militia vessels in its area,

00:25but just a few minutes of maritime patrol,

00:28a helicopter approached the patrol

00:32until it came close to our aircraft.

00:35Just a while ago, we were approached by a Chinese chopper in the color gray

00:40and the distance was not far,

00:44just near the tip of the BFAR plane.

00:47We are now here in Bukhana,

00:49in this smell of gunpowder,

00:51where we saw a Chinese militia vessel

00:55patrolling inside,

00:56and outside, there was a China Coast Guard patrolling

01:00so that if someone approached, they would be sure that they were being chased.

01:04Near the tip of the Chinese chopper,

01:06it was already dangerous,

01:08so our pilot radioed it twice.

01:11Chinese military helicopter,

01:13you are violating the flight air safety prescribed by the FAA and ICAO.

01:19You are flying too close to our position at less than 50 feet.

01:23You are endangering the safety of our crew and passengers.

01:26We are a Philippine government aircraft,

01:28performing our mandate to fly and conduct maritime survey

01:32over Bajo de Bacitloc or Scarborough Shoal

01:35within our exclusive economic zone.

01:38Be wary of safety and distance your aircraft from our position.

01:42But on the other hand,

01:43especially when the chopper that we were expecting approached,

01:46it was six meters away.

01:48Just like the Chinese ships,

01:49the chopper landed in Bukhana.

01:52Navigation and airspace in the shoal seemed to be controlled.

01:58Inside the shoal,

01:59you can see a militia vessel that is guarding Bukhana.

02:05That is why it is not surprising that there are no Philippine fishermen

02:08who can enter or approach where there are many fish.

02:12When we left the shoal,

02:13which is 25 nautical miles from the ocean,

02:16we passed through the Chinese Navy warship 174 with a helipad

02:20and where the chopper that landed on us was believed to come from.

02:24We were even radioed by the Chinese warship.

02:36In the afternoon,

02:37the China Coast Guard Vessel 3305 from Silangan is already in the north.

02:44Six Chinese militia vessels are stationed in the north of the shoal.

02:50The close-by militia vessel inside the shoal seems to be unmoved.

02:56After a few minutes,

02:57the Chinese military chopper showed up again

03:00and we were directed but it did not close.

03:04The radio challenge did not change either.

03:07For GMA Integrated News,

03:09Ian Cruz is your witness.
