NewsTranscript
00:00It is now difficult for some fishermen to reach the island and Escoda Shoal
00:05due to the tight security of the Chinese Coast Guard.
00:08This is Rafi Pima with the latest news.
00:13China's security is tight due to the BRP Datu Pagbwaya,
00:18together with the BCG,
00:20sailing in Sabina or Escoda Shoal
00:22where the BRP Teresa Magbanoa and the China's Monster Ship are almost at the same level.
00:26The BCG's gate has no reason for China to complain
00:29about the Philippine ships in Escoda Shoal
00:31which is part of our Exclusive Economic Zone.
00:34The China Coast Guard said earlier
00:36that the BRP Teresa Magbanoa is illegally stranded in Escoda Shoal
00:39and it is against the sovereignty of China.
00:41This is the China Coast Guard's monster ship.
00:44This monster ship of China has been here for a long time
00:46and it is being guarded not only by our ships
00:50but also by the fishermen who get their livelihood here in Sabina Shoal.
00:54China's rubber boats are also being watched
00:56while the BCG is giving a crude warning to the fishermen in Escoda Shoal.
01:00The China Coast Guard's radio challenge is repeated.
01:02Paying our law enforcement patrol in the sea area
01:06under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China.
01:10Please inform us the purpose of your visit to this sea area.
01:15Over.
01:16Some fishermen have not been able to sail for three months
01:18due to China's restrictions.
01:20That's why they hope that the BCG will not leave Escoda Shoal.
01:23The news is that the fishermen in the West Philippine Sea will be arrested.
01:27That's why we are afraid even if it's difficult.
01:30We really tried our best so that they won't be arrested.
01:32But they didn't sail.
01:33But in Asa Island,
01:34some fishermen are not able to get near the sand decay.
01:37More than 30 Chinese militia vessels and a CCG vessel are stationed here
01:41and they are not leaving.
01:43They are being chased by those who are approaching.
01:45This is the China Coast Guard.
01:47You have the right to stay here
01:48without the permission of the people of Sabina Shoal.
01:50We are covering your area.
01:52You have the right to stay here without the permission of the people of Sabina Shoal.
01:54This is the sand decay area.
01:56This is near Pag-asa.
01:57This is where many Chinese militia are stationed
02:00and this area is being guarded
02:01because there are so many fish here.
02:03Before, the Filipinos fish here.
02:06But now, they are being prohibited
02:07and they are being guarded by the Chinese militia.
02:10The Vietnamese Coast Guard Vessel CSB-8002 is in the Manila Port area
02:14for a port visit.
02:15As part of the two-nation agreement
02:18which is considered by the Cooperation on Maritime Security.
02:20This will promote
02:22and enhance the efficiency of information sharing
02:25and the coordination in maritime law enforcement
02:27in accordance with international law.
02:29Although Vietnam has already recognized
02:31almost all of the islands and bays
02:33in the Kalayaan Island Group, according to the PCG,
02:35the fight for the territory in the Mission of the Coast Guard
02:39that is being protected by the Filipinos should not be affected.
02:41Let's let them talk.
02:43But it will not prevent us also from activities like this
02:48where we think it can help
02:50to build our relationship.
02:52The visit of Vietnam to Sigalot in the West Philippine Sea
02:55has nothing to do with it.
