00:00 The congressmen quickly condemned China's new bullying in the West Philippine Sea.
00:06 The House of Representatives is expecting to start an investigation into the "Gentleman's Agreement"
00:13 that was signed by the former Chinese administration.
00:17 I am Mel Alesmoras.

00:31 The congressmen quickly condemned China's new bullying in the West Philippine Sea.
00:41 According to House Assistant Majority Leader Zia Alonto Adjong, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. was right to fight for our rights in the so-called territory,
00:53 especially if China's new bullying is not considered.
00:58 Our position here, that's where I guess we should support the President.
01:03 Because bullying tactics, strategies like that should be countered with a strong position and the President has taken that.
01:14 In the meantime, the One Rider Party List Representative Roge Gutierrez and Lanao del Norte First District Representative Mohamed Khalid Dimaporo
01:21 will not let the camera go.
01:24 Instead, they will strengthen their cooperation with the Executive so that such incidents will not happen again.
01:32 We are feeling sorry for them.
01:34 We condemn this incident just today.
01:37 We condemn everything that goes with it.
01:38 We condemn the narrative of China.
01:41 We will not stand for this.
01:42 I think this is something that we'll be tackling under the leadership of Speaker Martin Romaldis
01:47 on how we can be united with the Executive in best revolving and de-escalating the situation within our sovereign territory.
01:59 The issue in China is still relevant.
02:01 First, House Speaker Martin Romaldis confirmed that the camera will investigate the long-awaited
02:07 Women and Gentlemen's Agreement that was signed by former President Rodrigo Duterte and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
02:14 According to the House leader, they will call the officials of the previous administration
02:19 to discuss whether this is true and to make the discussion clear.
02:23 Someone says it's true, someone else says it's not. So we need to know what is really going on.
02:29 What is the agreement that was signed by China?
02:35 So, legally speaking, if you ask me as a lawyer, that has no force and effect.
02:40 However, it has created this row.
02:42 This issue has arisen.
02:46 So, we have to find out the truth.
02:48 We need to know what is really going on so that it won't happen again.
02:51 Because it's not right.
02:53 In an interview, the National Security Council also commented on the ongoing escalation of the issue.
02:58 And now, even the current administration is also looking for the truth that the agency lied about.
03:04 Now, under this administration, the current administration has an internal understanding.
03:14 And because the Philippines did not follow this agreement with the Marcos administration,
03:22 we are the ones who are to blame for the rising tensions in the West Philippine Sea.
03:27 So, ADG John, is it true that there is no internal understanding between the Philippines and China
03:36 in discussing the Ayunin Shul? Is that true?
03:38 Yes, that's true, partner.
03:40 And our President has already made it clear that we will not enter into such understandings
03:47 because this is against our Constitution.
03:50 In the next few days, the camera expects to start the investigation on the issues in China.
