00:00The helicopter of the People's Liberation Army Navy of China is the closest to the rubber boat that the people of BFAR or Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources ride.

00:14The boat will go to Sandy Cay 2 and 3 for a marine scientific survey and to get a sample of the sand for study.

00:22According to the Philippine Coast Guard, this is a harassment. The propeller wash is very dangerous or the wind blown by the helicopter to stay on the ground.

00:31The impact here on the boat, there is a very high possibility that the rubber boat will hit.

00:38Even the Chinese Coast Guard boat seems to want to destroy the vessel of BFAR. It's a good thing that it was avoided.

00:44The rubber boat of BFAR is close to Sandy Cay 3 but it was blocked by the speed boat of the Chinese Coast Guard and it was not allowed to go down.

00:53No one was hurt but the BCG and BFAR were forced to suspend their plan to collect sand.

01:15This happened yesterday morning, 5 nautical miles or almost 10 kilometers from Pag-asa Island.

01:21The Chinese Coast Guard has no permission from the government of China to enter the Philippines.

01:28They also have an illegal tanking and collecting of sand there.

01:33The Philippine ships were chased according to their law because China has sovereignty there.

01:40China will continue to enforce the law and protect their rights in the waters that they claim to own.

01:47China is blatantly violating international law. China does not care about UNCLOS and they are disrespecting our sovereign rights.

01:56Because of the new incident, the DFA or Department of Foreign Affairs said that the Philippines will be affected by the diplomatic protest.

02:04It's not just a matter of telling China don't do it but always asserting our sovereign rights.

02:11In September 2023, the Philippines discovered that Sandy Cay 2 is full of dead and broken corals.

02:18According to experts, this is one of the processes of China before the reclamation started.

02:23In March 2024, the Chinese helicopter also flew the Philippine scientists in Sandy Cay.

02:30In May 2024, the result of their marine survey in Sandy Cay was released.

02:36They were able to see the complete shape of the ocean there.

02:40Yesterday, the MV Lapu-Lapu was successfully attached to the damaged BRP Sierra Madres in Ayungin Shoal

02:47for the resupply mission and the replacement of the soldiers there.

02:51China said that's because they gave permission to the Philippines.

02:55But according to the PCG and DFA, the Philippines did not ask for permission from China.

03:01We're not asking the permission of China when we inform them of this.

03:06We tell them this way, under international law, we will do this.

03:11And we expect that you will not cause trouble.

03:17This is the fifth resupply mission in Ayungin Shoal after the Philippines and China agreed

03:23on how to do this without avoiding misunderstanding and miscalculation.

03:29For GMA Integrated News, Jonathan Andal, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.

03:47.
