00:00 Even though the water of China flooded some of these ships yesterday,
00:04 the Philippine Coast Guard continued its mission to supply the fishermen
00:11 in Bajo de Masinloc or Panatag show.
00:14 Let's see how the situation is in the live broadcast of Rafi Itima.
00:19 Rafi?
00:20 Well, we are currently sailing back to Manila,
00:26 especially this Coast Guard ship.
00:29 Even though the resupply mission to Bajo de Masinloc was not carried out,
00:33 the mission of BFAR and PCG was still successful
00:37 because they were still able to supply the fishermen
00:42 in West Philippine Sea and Bajo de Masinloc.
00:45 This was despite the harsh action of the China Coast Guard
00:49 against PCG and BFAR.
00:51 We are in contact.
00:56 [indistinct chatter]
00:58 We are in contact.
01:02 The ships of China did not supply water to the ships of BFAR and PCG for a long time.
01:07 [water splashing]
01:10 [water splashing]
01:12 Woohoo!
01:29 The water cannon of the China Coast Guard is still continuing
01:34 to destroy the Philippine Coast Guard ship.
01:37 The water cannon is so powerful that you can feel the roots inside the pilot house.
01:45 The Dato Bagacay and BRP Dato Bangkaw were damaged.
01:53 The railings, canopy, and other things were damaged.
01:56 This is one of the rare occasions when the Philippine Coast Guard
02:01 is using the water cannon.
02:02 The China Coast Guard is doing this in Bajo de Masinloc
02:04 because, as far as I know, this is the first time
02:07 that a Philippine Coast Guard ship is near Bajo de Masinloc.
02:14 You can see on this map how we are avoiding the ships
02:18 that are being attacked by China
02:20 inside the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines.
02:23 The two ships are running slowly.
02:26 They are being assessed and assessed by their rank and file.
02:29 The ships of China, the ships of the Coast Guard, and their Navy are still following.
02:34 A P-3 Orion reconnaissance plane of the United States is being circled.
02:38 But 80 kilometers away from Panatakshol, the mission continues.
02:43 They are distributing free crude oil and other supplies.
02:46 The Philippine fishermen are arriving one by one for aid.
02:49 And until the sun sets, they are slowly increasing.
02:53 The fishermen are expected to arrive the next day.
02:57 Some of them are from Infanta, Pangasinan.
02:59 Mang Pedro was reported to have made a bomb of the water of the China Coast Guard in Bifar and PCG.
03:05 If you are angry, there is nothing we can do.
03:09 They say they experienced harassment.
03:11 Although this is rare, it is still hard for fishermen in Panatak, also called Scarborough Shoal.
03:17 It is still limited.
03:20 Because there are only a few small boats that can enter inside.
03:24 Only outside.
03:27 Free crude oil is a big deal, especially since it is the biggest part of their expenses whenever they go fishing.
03:33 That is why they do not have a fixed income when fishing.
03:36 We can only earn a little more than a week.
03:38 You can extend because of the oil.
03:42 It is said that there are more rich people in the fishing industry in Panatak Shoal.
03:47 But since 2012, the entrance of the China Coast Guard has been closed.
03:53 People like Mang Pedro are only going around the shoals that are spread in the villages of Pangasinan and Zambales
03:58 when the fishing net outside Scarborough is weak.
04:01 According to the Philippine Coast Guard, they will not stop helping the Filipinos wherever they are.
04:07 Mayor, I will just show you one of the damaged boats that I am driving, the BRP Bagacay.
04:18 This is the railing of the boat.
04:20 It is very strong.
04:22 But there is a panel LED here.
04:24 And that is the reason why this railing was damaged when the water cannon of the China Coast Guard was shot.
04:33 We experienced two direction melees of water cannons here.
04:39 Here on the port side and on the starboard side.
04:41 Those are two simultaneous water cannons.
04:45 This is one of the damaged ones.
04:47 And in front of me, the canopy of the boat was also damaged.
04:51 So, these damages can be fixed.
04:53 But the Philippine Coast Guard and BFAR will continue their missions to help our fishermen here in the West Philippine Sea.
05:01 Mel?
05:02 Thank you very much, Rafi Tima.
