00:00 President Bambang Marcos helped to finish the call of the ASEAN Summit

00:05 to complete the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea

00:08 through the issues and territories in the West Philippine Sea.

00:11 From Jakarta, Indonesia, live from the ASEAN Summit,

00:14 Ivan Mayrina.

00:16 Dear friends, in the 43rd ASEAN Summit,

00:24 we have mentioned several times the issue of the South China Sea or the West Philippine Sea.

00:29 And several times, we have asked for the support of the Philippines.

00:33 But the question remains,

00:35 is this enough to change the situation and ease the tensions in the West Philippine Sea?

00:41 The South China Sea is in the heart of Southeast Asia.

00:48 The ASEAN Summit is still on the agenda in Indonesia.

00:51 That's where President Bambang Marcos called upon the leaders,

00:55 not to make any move that will cause tensions in the West Philippine Sea.

00:59 The international law should be obeyed,

01:01 and not to allow other peace in the region because of their desire to rule.

01:06 The challenge for us remains that we must never allow the international peaceful order

01:13 to be subjected to the forces of might applied for a hegemonic ambition.

01:18 The President did not mention anything,

01:20 but in the ASEAN-China Summit,

01:22 Chinese Premier Li Qiang said that they are obeying the law

01:26 and are not allowing talks to be held.

01:28 We seek common ground while setting aside differences,

01:32 properly handle disagreements through dialogue and consultation.

01:35 The statements are made through a series of harassment of China

01:38 within the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines

01:41 and China's release of a map of the 10-dash line

01:44 that reaches almost the entire South China Sea.

01:46 Ray Powell is a maritime security expert who holds satellite images.

01:51 Until this morning, there were 15 Chinese maritime militia vessels

01:55 and one China coast guard vessel in Ayungin Shoal,

01:58 where the BRP Sierra Madre, which is being carried by the government's ship for months,

02:03 was docked.

02:04 China first said that the former leader of the Philippines

02:07 was promising to remove the ship from the sea,

02:09 which was owned by former President Joseph Estrada and Gloria Arroyo.

02:12 And now, former President Rodrigo Duterte said that he did not promise that.

02:17 He also said that he will follow the 10-dash line map of China.

02:20 The Sierra Madre, the Philippines said, is ours, that area.

02:27 So, let it just remain there.

02:32 I said I will not give an inch, actually.

02:34 Five Chinese maritime militia vessels were also spotted in Sabinao Escoda Shoal,

02:39 which is only 78 to 80 nautical miles from Palawan,

02:43 closer to the country than Ayungin and Panatago Scarborough Shoal in Zambales.

02:47 I think mostly what they're doing there is they are establishing their presence.

02:51 And Sabina Shoal is really the closest that we see them get to that Palawan coast.

02:57 The unannounced action of China in the West Philippine Sea

03:00 was also asked by President Marcos.

03:03 We cannot emphasize enough that actions, not words,

03:07 should be the ultimate measure of our commitment to securing peace and stability in the South China Sea.

03:14 Anything else simply does not suffice.

03:18 The Code of Conduct in the South China Sea is still in effect,

03:20 which is a way to fix the situation.

03:23 The early conclusion of an effective and substantive COC

03:28 that is in accordance with international law,

03:31 including the 1982 Hong Kong Clause,

03:34 remains the goal for ASEAN and for China.

03:38 It was supported by South Korea and Japan, the dialogue partners of ASEAN.

03:43 China's response to this is not to be partners.

03:46 To keep differences under control,

03:48 what is essential now is to oppose peaking sites,

03:52 oppose bloc confrontation,

03:55 and oppose a new Cold War.

03:58 And to ensure that disagreements and disputes among countries are properly handled.

04:04 In the Chairman's Statement of ASEAN,

04:06 the commitment of the countries was mentioned

04:08 to maintain peace and stability in the region,

04:10 and to ensure a peaceful resolution of disputes

04:13 and to avoid legal and diplomatic processes

04:16 that are not based on coercion or threat,

04:18 in accordance with the principles of international law,

04:21 including UNCLOS or United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

04:25 At the bilateral meeting of President Marcos and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau,

04:30 the growing Filipino community in Canada was recognized.

04:33 Trudeau also invited the President to visit Canada.

04:36 The Filipino community in Pulo was also welcomed.

04:40 The red flag is high because it is a sign that the country is in a war.

04:44 According to the DFA, this is an honest mistake,

04:47 but not by our protocol officers.

04:50 Earlier this afternoon, President Marcos and US Vice President Kamala Harris talked,

05:00 although we don't have details about this until now,

05:03 what they talked about and we are still waiting for it from Malacanang.

05:07 Meanwhile, two bilateral meetings were held yesterday morning

05:12 between President Marcos and the leader of South Korea,

05:16 and also the leader of Cambodia.

05:19 And live from Jakarta, Indonesia for GMA Integrated News,

05:23 I am Ivan Meyrina, your saksi.
