00:00Again, some ships of the China Coast Guard made dangerous maneuvers

00:05while the Philippine Coast Guard was heading to the Rizal Reef

00:09to alert fishermen who were being harassed by the People's Liberation Army of China.

00:14This was reported by Vell Custodio.

00:18After the Philippine Coast Guard received a report on the harassment of the People's Liberation Army

00:23or PLA Navy Helicopter of China to fishermen in the West Philippine Sea,

00:28the PCG and the media immediately deployed their ships to the Rizal Reef.

00:33While the PTV News team was traveling in the West Philippine Sea,

00:36dangerous maneuvers were made by the two ships of the China Coast Guard or CCG

00:42near Escoda Shoal last Saturday at 7 p.m.

00:46The Chinese ships were harassed again until 10 p.m.

00:51The CCG boarded our BRP Cape and Ganyo

00:55while we were traveling.

00:57They also think that their presence here is a legitimate maritime law enforcement.

01:04But in reality, we all know that in the middle of the night,

01:08you're going to cut a particular vessel.

01:12This is very dangerous.

01:20But our Philippine Coast Guard commanding officers are always professional

01:25and very competent in terms of seamanship skills.

01:28That's why we were able to prevent this kind of collision with the Chinese Coast Guard.

01:34Past 6 a.m. on December 1,

01:36we arrived near Iroquois or Rizal Reef,

01:39where the PLA Navy Helicopter was said to have captured footage.

01:43At the moment, our Philippine Coast Guard ship has stopped

01:48because the Chinese ship blocked us on that part of the Rizal Reef

01:53which is only 137 nautical miles from the mainland of Palawan.

01:57More than 18 fishing boats crossed the Rizal Reef.

02:01Fishing boats approached the BRP Melchor Aquino

02:05but even though our ship was with them, the CCG also approached it.

02:10Here, if you can see on the left side of your screen,

02:13the Philippine Coast Guard is also blocking another Chinese ship on the right.

02:19Because of the Chinese ships,

02:21it took almost two more hours for the fishing boats to approach us.

02:26It was very difficult.

02:28Just like last time,

02:29when we first entered this area,

02:35we were immediately blocked.

02:38Did you get blocked often?

02:40Yes, especially when we were moving our stuff,

02:44we were caught by the INOPS.

02:47We were also caught by the INOPS.

02:50We were even brought down by their ships.

02:54We were forced to leave and were forced to go home.

02:56The bad weather also added to their suffering.

02:59They also reported that there were two Philippine fishing boats

03:02that sank due to the bad weather.

03:07But all of the crew were rescued by other Philippine fishing boats.

03:13None of them were on the way or were lost.

03:15It is also very disappointing that despite the presence of China Coast Guard Vessel 5205

03:29and the PLA Navy monitoring the MirFAC that they were able to fly an aircraft here,

03:35they are monitoring the Philippine fishing boats.

03:38When the two Philippine fishing boats sank,

03:44they did not offer any assistance to help the Philippine fishing boats.

03:50Commodore Tariella also added that China Coast Guard Vessel 5205 offered to rescue the Philippine fishing boats,

03:54but only one day passed after the two fishing boats sank.

03:59In the commitment of the Commandant,

04:00the moment we learned that there were Philippine fishing boats in Iroquois Reef or Ruzuri,

04:07we will ensure that we're going to maintain our presence there

04:11to ensure the safety and security of our Filipino fishermen.

04:15Like you said, they are more confident that they can be able to freely fish.

04:21The Chinese are going to hesitate harassing our Filipino fishermen

04:25if there is a Philippine Coast Guard Vessel or any Philippine maritime forces here in the West Philippine Sea.

04:33It's a big help for us, ma'am.

04:35It's a big help for us.

04:37Like now, if we are going to enter another area that has a Philippine Coast Guard,

04:43we will be able to enter because they are warning us

04:46so that we can enter our area, so we can catch good fish.

04:50The fishermen were also safely returned to their fishing boats.

04:54The early Christmas gift of the PCG is still in full swing.

04:57But until we returned to our route of fishing,

05:00the Chinese ship was still stuck.

05:02We left Ruzuri Reef at 11 a.m.

05:06But at 6 p.m., the CCG ship approached our boat again.

05:11By 9 p.m., it was gone from our CCG.

05:15And we were safely returned to Bolivian Port, Balawan.

05:18According to the PCG, under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.,

05:23they will continue to maintain the presence of the PCG

05:27to ensure the safety of the Filipino fishermen

05:30and the freedom of fishing in the West Philippine Sea.
