00:01In an apparent attempt to harass Philippine ships and chase them away from Scarborough
00:05Shoal, two Chinese ships collided with each other on Monday, August 11.
00:10Philippine Coast Guard videos show China Coast Guard Vessel 3104 sailing towards the PCG's
00:15BRP Suluan before it collided with the People's Liberation Army Navy Ship 164.
00:21The incident occurred some 10.5 nautical miles east of Scarborough Shoal or Bajo de Masinluc.
00:26The PCG says the CCG vessel was chasing the BRP Suluan at high speed when it performed
00:32a risky maneuver leading to the impact to the PLA Navy warship.
00:56It increased her speed. And itong si PLA Navy, kung mabilis yung liku niya at mabilis din
01:03yung takbo ng China Coast Guard, it was very difficult for them to make it stop already.
01:09That's why the collision happened.
01:11The PCG says the impact resulted in substantial damage to the CCG vessel's forecastle,
01:16rendering it unseaworthy.
01:19Tariela said the Philippines offered support, including medical assistance to the CCG vessel,
01:24but received no response.
01:26The China Coast Guard routinely uses dangerous maneuvers against Philippine vessels in the
01:30West Philippine Sea to disrupt Manila's missions.
