00:00Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:04China has stopped its invasion and harassment of the Philippines.
00:10And the Philippines will return the Typhoon Missile to America.
00:14That is the challenge of President Bongbong Marcos to China.
00:18This is followed by China's alliance in the preservation of the Philippines of the Typhoon Missile System of America,
00:23which was recently transferred to a secret location.
00:27This is the statement of the President in the midst of the continuous surveillance
00:31and patrol of the ships of the China Coast Guard in Bajo de Bacinloc
00:36and the close occupation of Zambales.
00:39Ivan Mayrena was on the scene.
00:44President Bongbong Marcos has a challenge to China
00:47in the midst of its continuous harassment of the Philippine ships in the West Philippine Sea.
00:57Stop harassing our fishermen and let them have a living.
01:00Stop ramming our boats.
01:02Stop water cannoning our people.
01:06Stop firing lasers at us.
01:10And stop your aggressive and coercive behavior.
01:13And we'll return the Typhoon Missiles.
01:16Stop what they're doing. I'll blame them all.
01:20This is the statement of the President after the Chinese Foreign Ministry
01:24condemned the existence of the Typhoon Missile System of the Philippines from America.
01:27China called for a challenge and a different decision
01:31and immediately called to stop the missile program.
01:35I don't understand the comments on the Typhoon Missile System.
01:38We don't make any comments on their missile systems.
01:40And their missile systems are a thousand times more powerful than what we have.
01:44So, I don't understand.
01:46For a long time, China has been promoting the Typhoon Missile Launcher of America
01:50which was located at Lawag International Airport in Ilocos Norte
01:53but was recently moved to an unidentified location in Luzon.
01:57Tomahawk Cruise Missile is being launched on the Typhoon Missile Launcher
02:01and it can reach Russia and China
02:04along with the Typhoon Missile Launcher of Balikatan 2024
02:07and it was left by America to the Philippines.
02:09It is being trained by Filipino soldiers to use it.
02:13In Bajo de Macinlok, the Chinese Coast Guard ships have been circling for almost a month
02:18and are approaching the province of Zambales.
02:21Until a while ago, said the Philippine Coast Guard Spokesperson for the West Philippine Sea
02:25Commodore J. Tariella, there are four Chinese Coast Guard ships
02:28circling Bajo de Macinlok with their monster ship
02:32BRP Teresa Magbanwa is the only one guarding and circling the ships of China.
02:38You are advised that you are currently sailing within a Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
02:42The Philippines has the largest trade with the West Philippine Sea.
02:46The President confirmed their close ties with US President Donald Trump.
02:50Aside from security, the two leaders have a lot to talk about
02:54including the new immigration policy of America where 100,000 Filipinos are affected.
02:59Hundreds of Filipinos have returned home.
03:02So, this is something that we have to work through and hopefully resolve
03:08because the Filipinos in the United States especially have really formed a very important part already of their workforce.
03:14So, we'll see how we can influence the policy making in terms of immigration.
03:24The President also plans to impose a finance freeze on all of its foreign aid
03:30especially, this is not clear even to the agencies of the US government.
03:36The two leaders have not yet confirmed their ties.
