00:00A diplomatic protest erupted in the Philippines
00:02because of the continuation of China's monstership
00:06inside our Exclusive Economic Zone.
00:08China's aggressive actions in the West Philippine Sea
00:11are part of the discussions
00:13between the leaders of the Philippines, America, and Japan.
00:16Witnesses are Bernadette Reyes.
00:22China's Coast Guard 5901
00:25is 66.69 nautical miles away from Pundakit, Zambales.
00:31According to the Philippine Coast Guard,
00:32the monstership has been circling around
00:34near Bajo Dimasinluk, Panatagshul,
00:37and the coastline of Zambales.
00:39Before this, BRP Teresa Magbanwa sent the monstership away.
00:43But the PCG ship was in a state of emergency earlier.
00:46This early morning,
00:48BRP Teresa Magbanwa experienced overheating of its auxiliary engines.
00:55That's why it returned to the port of Bataan.
01:00That is primarily the reason why the China Coast Guard
01:04was able to once again come near at a distance of 67 nautical miles.
01:09BRP Teresa Magbanwa will replace BRP Gabriela Silang,
01:13but this ship is smaller
01:15and is only half the length of China's monstership.
01:19According to the Philippine Coast Guard,
01:21the maritime patrol of the PCG aircraft
01:25is also conducting a radio challenge
01:27to the China Coast Guard vessel.
01:29Coast Guard,
01:31CD5901,
01:33this is BRP Cabra.
01:34Please leave this area immediately.
01:37Over.
01:38On January 5,
01:40the BRP Cabra's radio challenge to the PCG
01:43was the monstership
01:44that is more than 50 nautical miles away
01:46from Capones Island, Zambales.
01:49But for more than a week,
01:50the monstership still did not leave.
01:53On January 10,
01:54BRP Teresa Magbanwa's radio challenge
01:56to the ships of China
01:57that are more than 70 to 80 nautical miles
02:00from Zambales.
02:01China Coast Guard vessel,
02:033304,
02:05this is Philippine Coast Guard vessel
02:07BRP Teresa Magbanwa.
02:09You are directed to depart immediately
02:12and notify us of your intentions.
02:13Over.
02:15At one point,
02:16China deployed a helicopter
02:18of their People's Liberation Army Navy.
02:21Something that is called provocative
02:23or challenging by the National Maritime Council.
02:26They can deny the continuous illegal presence
02:29of ships of China
02:30that is causing tension.
02:32This is also clear in the Freedom of Navigation,
02:35Innocent Passage,
02:36Maritime Zone Act of the Philippines,
02:38United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea,
02:41and 2016 Arbitral Ruling.
02:44This encouraged China to respect
02:46the law of the Philippines
02:47and the orders of its ships
02:49to stop the invasion of our EEZ.
02:52The Philippines also held a diplomatic protest.
02:55At the trilateral meeting of the Philippines,
02:58America, and Japan,
02:59the outgoing US President Joe Biden
03:02appointed President Bongbong Marcos
03:04to hold him
03:05to his aggressive actions of China.
03:08Based on the press release
03:09of the Presidential Communications Office,
03:11Biden hopes to continue to replace
03:13US President-elect Donald Trump
03:16to assist the Philippines, America, and Japan
03:19in maritime security and other issues.
