00:00While celebrating the anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea or UNCLOS,
00:06President Bombao Marcos urged that you should not send warships to resupply fishermen in the West Philippine Sea.
00:14Watch Ivan Mayrina.
00:20On the day that China Coast Guard bombed the BRP Datu Pagbuaya of BIFAR,
00:26near Bajo de Masinlok, a Chinese Navy ship was spotted near the Philippine ships.
00:34According to the PCG, this was the first time this happened in Bajo de Masinlok.
00:39One day after the Chinese ship was bombed,
00:42the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea said that
00:45it is possible for the Philippines to deploy warships of the Philippine Navy
00:48to join the resupply missions of BIFAR.
00:50If there are future resupply missions and we see the planned ships
00:56and they are approaching the Philippine Coast Guard and BIFAR ships,
01:01then it is possible that we will also deploy the Philippine Navy.
01:04According to the PCG, it is the President's decision.
01:08And that's what President Bombao Marcos said at the inauguration of the NLEX Kandaba III viaduct.
01:13We are not at war. We don't need Navy warships.
01:15All we are doing is resupplying our fishermen, protecting our territorial rights.
01:21It will be provocative and it will be seen as an escalation.
01:24We don't do that. The Philippines does not escalate tension.
01:28Quite the opposite. The Philippines always tries to bring down the level of tension.
01:33This was said by the President at the 42nd anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea or UNCLOS,
01:39one of the foundations of the Philippines, through its right to the West Philippine Sea.
01:44This readiness to engage fully within the parameters set by UNCLOS
01:48is a testament to our unwavering belief in the peaceful means of settling disputes
01:53and the rule of law and the rules-based international border.
01:57As for Taiwan, it depends on the number of Chinese ships around Taiwan.
02:02Their military is now on high alert.
02:04According to Taiwan, China's naval deployment is the largest in almost three decades.
02:10According to Reuters, Chinese Navy and Coast Guard ships are already in the region.
02:15China has not yet announced if they will have a military drill in the area.
02:19When asked about this, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said,
02:24Taiwan is part of the territory of China.
02:27It is a democracy and Taiwan has its own government.
02:30But for China, it is their province. They are ready to fight back.
02:34For GMAT Greatest News, I'm Ivan, pray for success.
