00:00The Philippine Navy confirmed that the largest ship of the China Coast Guard was sighted in Scarborough Shoal.
00:08They assured that they are using the Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense Concept to protect the Philippines.
00:18Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. described as trash and irresponsible the statement of China
00:26that will arrest and imprison anyone who enters the West Philippine Sea, which is our territory.
00:34This is what Ryan Leziguez reported.
00:38Directly in the air, Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. accused China of invading the chaotic West Philippine Sea.
00:45In accordance with the new law of China, the Philippines are being arrested for illegally entering the West Philippine Sea.
00:52There is a world of disinformation and malign information.
00:56Is this a provocation? No.
01:02I believe what a provocation is, is the roguish and irresponsible threat to detain quote-unquote trespassers
01:14in what is claimed as internal waters but is actually part of the high seas and part of the West Philippine Seas by a country.
01:26It is clear that this is a violation of the United Nations Charter where everyone has a responsibility to avoid threats or force for aggression.
01:36What we do in our exclusive economic zone, how we defend our exclusive economic zone can in no way be termed by any sane person as a provocation.
01:55On the other hand, it is but what is required of us as sworn officers of upholding the law in compliance with our Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines.
02:10The secret service also said that this declaration by China is rubbish and irresponsible.
02:16These cooperative activities with like-minded nations as a containment or a provocation
02:24is disinformation and evidence of paranoia of a close political system
02:33where motives, although closed in sweet terms, are hidden behind these sweet terms
02:46and the ultimate intent is to get what they want by the threat or the use of force.
02:54This we cannot allow to continue.
02:57The Philippine Navy has declared that they are using the Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense Concept or CADC
03:03to protect the territory of the Philippines along with the 200 Nautical Mile Exclusive Economic Zone
03:09to ensure that all the rich seas in the area are benefited by every Filipino.
03:14Earlier, the Philippine Navy celebrated its 126th anniversary with 10 members who were injured in the attack,
03:23particularly the bombing of the Chinese Coast Guard's water cannon on Philippine ships
03:28during the resupply mission of the BRP Sierra Madre in the area of today's Seoul.
03:34Commodore Roy Vincent Trinidad of the Philippine Navy and Spokesperson for West Philippine Sea confirmed
03:40that the largest ship of the Chinese Coast Guard was hit in Panatag Seoul.
03:45Trinidad said the last sighting of a 165-meter CCG with a bow number 5901,
03:52which is 50 nautical miles away from Bajo de Masinloc,
03:56was also spotted by another CCG of 102 meters with a bow number 5202 in the same place.
