00:06that is still roaming in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
00:12Meanwhile, the Philippine Navy ships conducted a unilateral exercise
00:18in the vicinity of Bajo de Masinluc,
00:20which is still a part of the exercises to protect our seas.
00:25Here is the report.

00:38You are directed to depart immediately and notify us of your intentions.
00:44Your illegal activity will be reported to higher authorities.
00:48The Philippine Coast Guard has been monitoring the monster ship of the China Coast Guard
00:54that is still illegally maintained in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
01:00On January 4, the so-called ship of China was first detected
01:03which is still 54 nautical miles from Sambales.
01:07But due to the tight surveillance and patrol of the PCG,
01:12the distance of the monster ship of 60 to 70 nautical miles can only be maintained.
01:18Currently, it is being guarded by the PCG ship of BRP Gabriela Silang.
01:23The government of China previously called for the removal of the monster ship from the EEZ of the Philippines
01:31because it is still a violation of the Philippine Maritime Zones Act
01:35even though it was approved by UNCLOS and the 2016 Arbitral Award.
01:45In the vicinity of Bajo de Masinluc, the Philippine Navy conducted a unilateral exercise.
01:51The Navy ships of BRP Antonio Luna and Del Pilar-class patrol vessels
01:58BRP Ramon Alcaraz and BRP Andres Bonifacio were first here.
02:02Along with patrolling the West Philippine Sea,
02:05the exercise was conducted far away
02:08to further improve the Navy's preparedness and interoperability in accordance with their mandate
02:14to protect the Philippine maritime zone and territorial integrity.
