00:00President Bongbong Marcos initiated the defense of the Philippines' freedom and territory

00:05while adding the Philippine Navy to its forces in the West Philippine Sea

00:10before China's long-awaited arrest of the so-called trespassers in the South China Sea.

00:15Breaking news, Ian Crew.

00:20The Philippine Coast Guard ordered the BRP Teresa Magbanwa to fight a fierce battle.

00:28According to the PCG, it was the first flag ceremony of the Philippines in Escoda or Sabina Shoal in the West Philippine Sea.

00:36Eight Chinese vessels were spotted inside Escoda, four outside.

00:41According to the Philippine Navy, 146 Chinese vessels were spotted in the West Philippine Sea from June 4 to June 10.

00:49Twenty-two of those were ships of their Navy.

00:54What will be concerning is if they have forces from their other fleet, the East Sea Fleet or the North Sea Fleet.

01:02But so far, the increase in numbers is still within our acceptable limits.

01:07China will implement this new order to their China Coast Guard to arrest the so-called trespassers in their borders in the sea.

01:16China said that there is nothing to be afraid of if there is nothing illegal being done.

01:21But the Philippine Navy said that China has no right to say this about our Exclusive Economic Zone.

01:29What we have done so far is to increase our presence, Philippine Navy, Coast Guard, BFAR, not only us but our partners and allies,

01:36if only to deter China from effecting what they are saying.

01:41President Bongbong Marcos repeatedly insisted on defending our freedom from his Independence Day message.

01:48As a defender of the freedom that we are facing now, it is the duty of each of us to protect it.

01:55And I assure you that we will never bow to any threat of intimidation, intimidation and intimidation.

02:03Up to Vandeneur in Malacanang.

02:06Safeguard what our forefathers have fought and died for so that we may carry on our sacrosanct mandate

02:14to protect our country and to defend everything that is rightly ours from those who will try to cross these lines.

02:22In the gathering of the various world leaders, including the ambassadors of America and China,

02:29the President stated his support for the implementation of the international treaties, even though no particular country is mentioned.

02:38We have taken positions in support of the rule of law and of the rules-based international order.

02:43Grounded on the principles laid out in the UN Charter and multilateral conventions.

02:49Patient, serious dialogue.

02:52Engaging with others, and particularly those with whom we profoundly disagree,

02:58is the surest way of avoiding the catastrophe of escalation.

03:03Until the parade of freedom at the Kirino Grandstand, where the AFP and other troops showed their strength.

03:12Our forefathers did not give in to war.

03:16That is why we will not back down in our duty to defend what is rightfully ours.

03:23We will remain steadfast and we will not give in.
