00:00Naglaan ang Taiwan na malaking bahagi ng kanilang pondo para sa depensa bilang paghahanda sa posibleng pag-atakiraw ng China.
00:08Nanindigan naman si Pangulong Bombong Marcos na hindi gusto ng Pilipinas na madamay sa gulo, lalot libo-libong Pilipino ang
00:15nasa Taiwan.
00:16May unang barita si June Ganarasyon.
00:21Kabilang ang High Mobility Artillery Rocket System ng Amerika sa mga paparating na armas na binili ng Taiwan.
00:27May mga dinevelop na rin itong sariling missile na kaya umunong umabot ang China, bansang inaangkin ng isla bilang bahagi
00:35ng kanilang teritoryo.
00:37Ngayong taon, 31.1 billion US dollars ang inilaan ng gobyerno ng Taiwan para sa defense spending, ang pinakamalaking budget
00:45sa kanilang kasaysayan.
00:59Yes, we are prepared. The initial weapons I mentioned, these are for deterring effect. We want to increase the cost
01:09for China to start a military conflict.
01:13Kapag nauwi sa gera, alam ng Taiwan na mistulang David versus Goliath ang laban nila sa China.
01:18Pero umaasa sila na hindi sila nag-iisa sa laban dahil nandyan anila ang mga kaalyado nila gaya ng Amerika.
01:25Of course, we will invest our weaponry, even our ammo stockpile. We will try the best.
01:38To prepare the potential invention, we cannot just wait for its occurrence. We have to prepare during peacetime.
01:52Sa isang masalimot na sitwasyon gaya ng digmaan, marami ang maaaring madamay kasama ang daang libong Pilipino sa Taiwan.
02:00Isa ito sa pinangangambahan ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos.
02:03In the Philippines, we do not have a choice because Taiwan is so close to the Philippines and we have
02:10almost 200,000 Filipino nationals living and working in Taiwan.
02:14So we have many other considerations, but we end up in the same position that we want to avoid any
02:23confrontation,
02:23we want to avoid any hostilities around or because of and around Taiwan simply because we do not want to
02:33be involved in any war.
02:35We do not want to be involved in any conflict.
02:37Sa tagal na ng problema ng girian sa pagitan ng Taiwan at China, nasanay na ang mga tagarito,
02:43kabilang na ang libu-libong overseas Filipino workers.
02:46Halos hindi na nga ro'n nila maramdaman ang tensyon.
02:49Sana lang daw, huwag nang lumala pa ang sitwasyon dahil ang nakataya dito ay kanilang kaligtasan at kabuhayan.
02:57Siguro may onte, like hearing people tell it to me directly, pero like in terms of yung surroundings ko,
03:05I think I couldn't also like feel the tension.
03:09Ang harassment na ginagawa ng China sa Taiwan Strait ay halos kapareho ng pambubuli na nararanasan ng Pilipinas sa West
03:16Philippine Sea.
03:17Malayo ba ng defense budget ng Pilipinas kumpara sa Taiwan?
03:21Naniniwalang Mainland Affairs Council ng Taiwan na hindi ito basta-basta magagalaw ng China.
03:27Tsajang Soho, bintang jensis na tontu.
03:29For the Philippines, maybe you have a great advantage because you have a joint defense treaty with America.
03:35And China would not risk escalation of aggression into an actual military conflict.
03:42Mula Taipei, Taiwan.
03:44Ito ang unang balita.
03:46Jun Veneracion, GMA News.
