00:03that is known for its contribution and sacrifice of almost 50 million workers across the country.
00:10But because of the rising prices, some groups are still calling for their salaries to be increased.
00:16From P. Noval Street on España Boulevard in Manila,

00:26They called for a 150 pesos increase in their salaries.
00:30On Recto Avenue, Workers for People's Liberation gathered early to call on the government.
00:37Aside from increasing salaries, they also asked to lower the prices of goods and free housing.
00:46But in their march to Bendiola, they were stopped by the police in Morayta.
00:51Another group in another part of Manila was stopped by the police.
00:55Around 8.30 a.m. this morning, some groups were called to Recto Avenue
01:01to join the various groups of workers.

03:09America and Japan condemned the recent incident of China Coast Guard water cannon on ships
03:15of the Philippine Coast Guard and BFAR yesterday in Bajo de Masinloc.
03:19Meanwhile, China claims that they have a right on that part of the West Philippine Sea
03:23and that they are just doing what should be their law.
03:28In the footage of Rafi Tima's team yesterday,
03:30we can see what China is doing to bomb the water in his vehicle, BRP Bagacay of PCG.
03:37Several parts of the ship were hit by heavy rain due to the incident.
03:42Here is his report.
03:49This is the footage of Rafi Tima's team yesterday in Bajo de Masinloc.
04:06The water cannon is very powerful.
04:19The water cannon is very powerful.
04:23Three ships of the China Coast Guard immediately entered Bajo de Masinloc.
04:27In the distance, a ship of the Chinese Navy was seen.
04:33At one point, our BRP Datu Bangkaw of BFAR was separated
04:37from our BRP Bagacay of the Philippine Coast Guard
04:40after a large ship of China was hit.
04:44We were able to continue our run but the Chinese Coast Guard ship was very close.
04:51This maneuver is very dangerous.
04:54Because of any mistake, we can get hit.
04:58The situation was like this earlier,
05:00maybe 20 to 30 minutes, the battle was like cat and mouse.
05:06The BFAR ship was blocked earlier
05:08that's why our Coast Guard ship was maneuvering to avoid it.
05:12None of the Chinese ships were able to enter our area
05:15until the Coast Guard ship was able to enter the blockade of China
05:19towards Bajo de Masinloc.
05:21Our captain was able to maneuver
05:23so that our Coast Guard ship was able to enter China.
05:28The direction of Scarborough Shoal is here.
05:30The Chinese Coast Guard is forcing us to go here.
05:33They are trying to prevent us from entering Bajo de Masinloc.
05:39Now, our direction is here, towards Bajo de Masinloc.
05:44Two Chinese militia boats were blocking our path
05:48but the BRP Bagacay was able to escape easily.
05:51A few minutes later, we were able to reach the Bahura Bay itself,
05:55a rare opportunity for a Philippine Coast Guard ship.
05:58But the Chinese Coast Guard ships were able to reach us
06:01and within a few minutes, they opened their water cannon.
06:05This is one of the rare occasions
06:07where the Philippine Coast Guard ships opened their water cannon.
06:10And now, the Chinese Coast Guard ships are doing this
06:12here at Bajo de Masinloc.
06:14As far as I know, this is the first time
06:16that a Philippine Coast Guard ship
06:18was able to get this close to Bajo de Masinloc.
06:24At first, the Chinese Coast Guard ship's water cannon
06:26was just a warning shot
06:28to our vehicle
06:31The CCPG 5303's water cannon was also fired at the same time.
06:36A few minutes later, our ship was hit.
06:40Because I was still flying my drone,
06:42I wasn't able to get inside the ship to complete the mission.
06:45The ship's bridge was the one blocking
06:47the powerful fire of the water cannon.
06:51The Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon
06:53was able to get me inside the ship.
06:56I'll get inside first.
07:01F**k!
07:06The Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon
07:08was still firing at our vehicle
07:10while the captain was maneuvering
07:12to avoid the important items outside the ship.
07:14The Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon
07:16was still firing at our Philippine Coast Guard ship.
07:21Because of the powerful fire of their water cannon,
07:23you can really feel the heat inside the pilot's house.
07:28The Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon
07:30was stopped for a while
07:32after the Philippine Coast Guard's
07:34repeated radio calls to the Philippines.
07:36Stop your water cannon.
07:38You are posing danger to our vessel.
07:40This is a James Danger National
07:42and Philippine National Laws order.
07:44Because of the powerful fire of the Chinese Coast Guard's
07:46water cannon,
07:48the left railing of the BRP Bagacay
07:50as well as the LED panel
07:52was damaged.
07:54The canopy on the back of the ship
07:57But the Chinese Coast Guard was not yet finished
07:59with their water cannon.
08:05The Chinese Coast Guard did not stop
08:07until our ship left the Baho de Masinloc.
08:09While our ship was stopping,
08:11they opened their water cannon
08:13which was posing a threat to us
08:15who had already left.
08:17Because of the Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon,
08:19the BIFAR resupply mission
08:21to the Philippine islands in Baho de Masinloc
08:23did not continue.
08:25Philippines para tulungan ng mga Pinoy na nagpupumilit pari mabuhay at makapangisda sa lugar na dekada na nilang inagkukunan ng kabuhayan.
