00:00The ship was hit by water and was hit by a Chinese Coast Guard ship, the ship of BFAR, BRP Dato Roma Pinit, this morning near Escoda Shoal, which is inside the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines.
00:21The ship of BFAR, along with the PCG vessels, was hit by the Philippine fishermen who were being stopped by the Chinese Coast Guard.
00:30The ship of the Chinese Coast Guard was also hit by another ship of BFAR, the BRP Bangkaw.
00:37The Chinese Coast Guard and BRP Pagbuaya of BFAR were also hit by the same ship in Bajo de Masilok, this morning.
00:46According to the PCG, the target of the CCG was to destroy the navigational equipment of BRP Pagbuaya.
00:52From their drone, we can see how small the ships of BFAR are compared to the ships of the Chinese Coast Guard.
00:59Despite the harassment, BFAR was able to deliver supplies and crews to 47 Philippine fishing boats.
01:07The one that is aggressive here, the one that is provocative and escalating tension in Bajo de Masilok are the Chinese Coast Guard vessels.
01:16This is actually an overkill.
01:18In the first instance, a People's Liberation Army-Navy warship of China joined the PCG and BFAR.
01:27It was able to reach up to 300 yards from BRP Pagbuaya.
01:32Despite this, according to the National Maritime Council, the Philippine Navy will not allow the government to bring it.
01:44In the Senate Budget Hearing, the aggressive movement of China in the West Philippine Sea was discussed.
02:02Again, as much as possible, we cannot do actions that would escalate the situation.
02:11We are ready if ever, Mr. Chair, if ever there is a situation like that, our Philippine Navy is ready.
