00:00 The AFP said that China's possible propaganda
00:05 and the possibility of these informants are falling.
00:10 That's why the contents of the resupply missions in the West Philippine Sea are known.
00:16 The Philippine Joint Patrol and its allies are also continuing to expect this
00:22 following the joint military exercises with Australia, Japan and America.
00:28 We are talking about Chino Gaston and Ian Cruz.
00:30 Because of the continuous harassment of China,
00:37 government vessels are not allowed to enter.
00:40 To avoid miscalculations, leave and keep far off.
00:43 Otherwise, you will bear full responsibility for all the consequences.
00:48 to the Philippine resupply missions in the West Philippine Sea,
00:51 the AFP chief of staff said,
00:54 I think their proposal to have joint exercises with us is very vague.
01:03 The Philippine soldiers' trip to China is also suspended
01:07 to study the defense cooperation of the two countries.
01:11 Along with the celebration of National Heroes Day,
01:14 General Romeo Browner said that our soldiers are not following
01:18 the resupply mission for our troops in the West Philippine Sea.
01:22 It is our right, it is our obligation to bring supplies to our soldiers
01:27 who are posted in our islands and in the various features that we are occupying.
01:34 No special arrangement with China?
01:36 No special arrangement with China.
01:37 We are not saying goodbye and we do not need to say goodbye to China to resupply.
01:42 For now, the AFP is looking to use more fast supply vessels.
01:47 The operations we are doing are also expensive.
01:49 Gasoline is expensive, manpower is expensive.
01:52 We need to find ways to be more efficient.
01:57 The Chinese bombed the Philippine supply boat in August 5
02:03 because of the materials brought to the island
02:04 to fix the emerging BRP Sierra Madre in Ayunginshol.
02:09 The possibility of China having informants about the resupply mission was first raised.
02:15 The AFP is investigating this but the result is...
02:18 It is just propaganda of China because in the last resupply,
02:22 they really don't know what the contents are.
02:24 It is our right to repair it, to repair our BRP Sierra Madre
02:29 because that is a commissioned Philippine Navy boat, ship.
02:32 Let's not be dictated by any country.
02:35 On the same week, tensionary resupply missions in Ayungin and Pagasa
02:41 joined the Philippine Navy in the last week
02:44 in Central Luzon, the largest ship of Australia,
02:47 the largest helicopter carrier of Japan,
02:50 and a Littoral Combat Ship of America
02:52 used for defense and attack of the sea near the island or land
02:57 for amphibious and land operations, joint military exercises
03:01 in the sea of Central Luzon.
03:03 We understand that China is doing very aggressive activities.
03:10 In this context, our country is doing various activities
03:15 with the concept of the Indo-Pacific that was opened by the Hoip gun.
03:18 We stand as a force, a moral force,
03:22 a force more powerful than any military we could ever muster.
03:26 And it is together as this force we stand united
03:30 for the prosperity and the security and the ongoing peace in our region.
03:35 Japan, US, Australia and the Philippines are not,
03:39 I repeat, not ganging up on China.
03:42 We are doing this for our own interests.
03:45 When we get together as like-minded nations, we achieve more.
03:51 For security analyst Professor Renato de Castro,
03:55 the message of the four-nation naval forces' cohesion is clear.
04:00 They're not thinking about war.
04:01 The best way to prevent war is integrated deterrence.
04:05 It's showing the unified strategic efforts of the United States,
04:12 Japan, Australia, Republic of Korea and even India.
04:16 The Philippine Joint Patrol and the allies of the country are in line with the expectations.
04:20 According to Bronner, the President has already approved it.
04:25 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Ian Cruz.
