00:00
While I was on my way to San Salvador, Ronnie told me that they haven't been able to fish in Scarborough for a few months.
00:14
We were caught fishing in the China Palace on June 15.
00:19
We were afraid of what would happen.
00:21
Did anyone try to catch you?
00:22
No, not until now.
00:24
The fishermen here in San Salvador last went to Scarborough Shoal to fish.
00:38
But when the Chinese began to guard and catch the fishermen going there, they stopped.
00:45
That's why the fishermen are here in the municipal waters of Masinok, Zambales.
00:50
Let's see what they will catch if they are just here in the municipal waters.
00:59
While we were on the boat, we were told about our trip to Scarborough Shoal in 2018.
01:06
Other times, we just go fishing.
01:21
Wow!
01:22
First fish!
01:24
Yes.
01:25
First fish!
01:26
Catch it right away!
01:37
Here in the municipal waters, only a limited number of fishermen can go.
01:42
They also choose a place where they can fish, like this one.
01:48
The bottom needs to be visible because they don't have any equipment, no oxygen tanks.
01:54
So whatever they can breathe, that's what they will go and use to catch fish.
02:05
It's been six years since I joined this group of fishermen.
02:10
It's still the same.
02:12
Almost nothing has changed.
02:13
Look at their equipment.
02:15
They are moving it.
02:17
These are their nets and goggles.
02:22
They are old.
02:24
That's how the fishermen live here in Masinok, Zambales.
02:45
This is where the fishermen used to fish.
03:06
What did you catch?
03:07
This is the Loro that used to be in Scarborough.
03:11
It has grown.
03:12
This is the only one left.
03:13
It's just like a duende.
03:14
It's just like a duende, sir.
03:17
It's very hard.
03:20
If you go back to Scarborough, what will happen to you?
03:24
I'm not sure what will happen to you there.
03:26
You never know.
03:27
You might get hit by a boat again.
03:29
I don't know what will happen.
03:44
After an hour of fishing, Ron passed out.
03:48
He couldn't get up.
03:50
It's really hard to catch fish here.
03:54
Even if we are using it while we are resting,
03:57
it's really hard to catch fish.
04:02
It's really hard to catch fish here, sir.
04:03
It's not like in the West Philippines.
04:06
It's really hard to catch fish here.
04:09
It's really far.
04:10
What time do you usually go there?
04:12
A lot, sir.
04:13
After an hour, you might get 3 kilos.
04:19
Does this have 1 kilo?
04:20
Sir?
04:21
Do we have 1 kilo now?
04:22
I don't think so.
04:23
I don't think so.
04:25
The last catch of the day.
04:27
The group is still splitting up.
04:30
The Chinese have an advantage.
04:34
That's why some people are afraid.
04:36
Of course, they don't want to go to jail.
04:38
That's why.
04:39
No one went to jail.
04:42
It's painful to think that our fishermen
04:45
can't reach our own territory.
04:49
You can see it on TV,
04:50
our boats,
04:52
the houseguards and the bivouac,
04:54
they are just carrying it.
04:55
It's empty.
04:56
We are the ones who are carrying it.
05:04
It's sad,
05:05
especially that they are sometimes called to the palace of Malacanang
05:08
and they were asked for help
05:10
a few days after their story was released in 2018.
05:14
It's heavy on your heart,
05:15
but you have to accept it
05:17
because they have power there.
05:22
Malacanang has informed the Department of Foreign Affairs
05:27
or DFA
05:28
to the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines
05:30
about what happened to their group,
05:32
Captain Romel and Delfin.
05:35
Based on the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
05:38
or UNCLOS,
05:39
other countries have the freedom of navigation,
05:42
the sovereign rights of the Philippines
05:45
in all marine resources
05:48
or rich seas inside and outside the Scarborough Shoal.
05:58
They were also given boats.
06:00
The problem is,
06:01
they can't afford it.
06:04
Why can't they afford it?
06:06
Because of many shortcomings.
06:09
When we bought this,
06:11
we were estimating the cost.
06:13
The budget for this is around P100,000.
06:18
Where will we get that much?
06:21
We have to buy food.
06:23
It's hard.
06:25
Meanwhile, when Delfin arrived at the hospital,
06:28
he was examined immediately.
06:37
I'll just examine you.
06:39
This is the first time
06:41
that a neurologist will examine him.
06:45
Try to raise your hand.
06:47
This is raised.
06:48
This is not a problem.
06:49
This is a problem.
06:50
Okay.
06:51
This is a problem.
06:52
Try now.
06:53
Okay.
06:55
Is this painful?
06:56
This is painful.
06:57
Yes.
06:58
I can't breathe.
06:59
I can't breathe.
07:00
I can't breathe.
07:01
In his stroke,
07:03
he was hit on the left side of the brain.
07:05
That's why he can't speak.
07:07
He can't speak.
07:10
As a help,
07:11
the hospital provided
07:13
a few months supply of medicine for Delfin.
07:15
He was also allowed to go under the CT scan.
07:19
So, from Candelaria,
07:21
Delfin was again invited
07:23
to a hospital in Ibazambales
07:25
for a CT scan.
07:30
Now, aside from the medicine,
07:32
Delfin also needs physical therapy
07:35
so that he can gradually move
07:38
his right hand and foot.
07:42
But in the group of Delfin
07:44
that I was with back then,
07:46
there is one more person
07:48
that I haven't found yet.
07:50
The captain of the ship,
07:52
Romel Cejuela.
