00:0050,000 times, the Philippines issued a challenge to ships passing through the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines, according to the AFP.
00:09The AFP also monitored the Chinese state media that a Chinese aircraft carrier passed 200 nautical miles from Luzon.
00:18Witness, Chino Gaston.
00:21The China Coast Guard 3302 passed through the West Philippine Sea several times,
00:26including the ships of China carrying water cannons for humanitarian and support missions at the Panatang Show last December.
00:34This ship passed 40 nautical miles west of Palawan, according to maritime security expert, Trey Powell.
00:40It entered the 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
00:45According to the AFP, 50,000 times, the Philippines issued a challenge to ships passing through the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines,
00:53this year only.
00:54There are many international maritime highways that we call that ships pass through,
01:07not just maritime and commercial ships, but even warships.
01:13The AFP also monitored the Chinese state media that a Chinese aircraft carrier passed 200 nautical miles from Luzon.
01:23According to the AFP, the number of Chinese vessels in the West Philippine Sea decreased from June 25 to July 1 compared to last week.
01:32We don't want to speculate on the reduction.
01:36Suffice it to say, we have monitored a reduction on a week-to-week basis of our monitoring.
01:43For whatever reason, this will be subject to further assessments.
01:46We will not be deterred.
01:48Secondly, we will continue resupplying and rotating our troops.
01:53Thirdly, this is the mandate of the armed forces.
01:56Guided by higher pronouncements from the government and the Department of National Defense,
02:02Western Command is doing the appropriate planning.
02:05The AFP also denied what was said in a Global Times article
02:09that the construction materials of the PCG in Eskoda Shoal are being transported.
02:13According to the Chinese state media,
02:14this is an indication that the Philippines is planning to build a maritime base to support the BRP Sierra Madre in Ayungin Shoal.
02:22Knowing the background of Global Times, be careful.
02:25So just seeking your reaction.
02:28It's their narrative.
02:30The Philippine Navy, the Philippine Coast Guard, BIFAR, and all other government instrumentalities
02:36have to ensure that our territory is intact, our sovereignty and sovereign rights are protected.
02:43This will mean increased presence.
02:45This will mean increased maritime and air patrols.
02:48This will mean stationing ships longer than necessary.
02:52The AFP also denied the rumours that there might be a war if the Philippines forces the resupply missions to Ayungin.
02:59The AFP will continue to resupply to Ayungin despite what happened,
03:04where a soldier was cut in half.
03:07There will be no war.
03:09There will be no war.
03:11Because we are using all the instruments of national power.
03:16For now, we can avoid war.
03:19We don't want war.
03:22For GMA Integrated News, I'm Chino Gaston, your witness.
03:27Kapuso, let's be witnesses together.
