00:08 We learned that this is allowed.

00:14 Good afternoon.
00:15 We caught a security guard in Calamba, Laguna, shooting a security guard
00:19 who was home after the death of a worker.

00:49 Before long, the victim and his brother were resting outside the backwoods of a house.
00:54 They were shocked when they were spotted by two security guards of the house.
00:58 We are not in your property.
01:01 We are not in your property.
01:03 The victims were fighting with the guards.
01:08 We are here outside.
01:10 Later, one of the guards wore a helmet and left.
01:16 Sir, if you are an employee, we are also an employee. We also have rights.
01:20 Go ahead.
01:21 A guard left and the fight continued.
01:26 We are being asked to leave here by the expressway because we are not here.
01:32 Later, another guard returned.
01:35 Sir, we are just resting here. We are not doing anything.
01:40 We are not in your property.
01:42 We are just resting here.
01:44 We are not doing anything.
01:46 A guard fired a gun and hit Ronald.
01:52 The two guards ran away.
01:54 Kalamba Police said that one of the guards was arrested yesterday.
01:58 The other guard was shot.
01:59 He admitted to having an attorney with him.
02:02 We are trying to get the list of suspects that were investigated yesterday.
02:07 The victim's body was placed under autopsy and the investigation is ongoing.
02:12 For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
02:17 In other news, China removed the floating barriers that were placed by their Coast Guard in Bajo de Macinloc according to the Philippine Coast Guard.
02:26 But they have another threat in the territory they are fighting.
02:30 That is what Joseph Moro is talking about.
02:36 The floating barrier that China Coast Guard placed in Bajo de Macinloc or Scarborough Shoal of Huebes
02:42 can be seen in the satellite images from the Philippine Coast Guard.
02:46 In another picture, it can be seen inside the lagoon of the China Coast Guard and the floating barrier is located there.
02:54 The so-called barrier that divides Huebes' supply is there.
02:57 BRP Datu Tamblot, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources or BFAR, is there with the Filipino fishermen.
03:04 Based on the satellite images that we have been monitoring,
03:09 they are anticipating that the Philippine government vessels will attempt to enter the lagoon in Bajo de Macinloc.
03:17 Last September, a floating barrier was also seen there by China that was cut by the PCG.
03:23 But the Coast Guard spokesperson for the West Philippine Sea Commodore J. Tariella said that the floating barrier of Huebes
03:30 was removed by China after the mission of BRP Datu Tamblot.
03:34 But it is up to China to do what it is doing in Bajo de Macinloc, which is inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
03:41 Not only did China's blockade against the Filipino fishermen,
03:56 but also the Bajo de Macinloc. BFAR said that based on the story of some fishermen,
04:02 the Chinese and Vietnamese fishermen were doing cyanide fishing there.
04:07 But the Coast Guard said,
04:09 We don't have any scientific study or any evidences that would suggest that the cyanide fishing in Bajo de Macinloc
04:18 can be attributed to the Chinese or even Vietnamese fishermen.
04:23 BFAR said it would be better to patrol the PCG and BFAR there to make sure that this is really happening.
04:31 The more we see, the more we will have evidence that this is being done by Chinese fishermen and apparently foreign fishers.
04:47 GMA Integrated News is still trying to get the reaction of the embassies of China and Vietnam on the issue of cyanide fishing in Bajo de Macinloc.
04:56 In Yungin Shoal and Recto Bank in Calayaan, Palawan,
05:00 according to a reliable source of GMA Integrated News,
05:03 the maritime patrol was successful in capturing BRP Cabra and BRP Sindangan on February 16 and 17,
05:10 which were not blocked by the China Coast Guard.
05:13 For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, 24 Hours.
05:17 GMA Integrated News witnessed how our fishermen are living in danger of being monitored by China in Bajo de Macinloc.
05:29 The Filipinos have been fishing there,
05:32 when the government ships are still not content with the situation of the Philippine Coast Guard.
05:38 That's what Chino Gaston is talking about.
05:41 This is the situation of the Filipino fishermen in Bajo de Macinloc.
05:47 The rubber boats that were carried by the China Coast Guard are near their harbour.
05:53 They don't know much about the Filipinos,
05:57 but last January, their fellow fishermen were caught to feed by the Chinese.
06:03 That's why until now, the Filipinos can't hide their anger towards the Chinese Coast Guard.
06:10 Life in the sea is hard,
06:22 that's why the regular delivery of PCG and BFAR of crude oil and aid is a big help to them.
06:29 The fishermen are serving their so-called "mother ship".
06:34 They sleep there, cook and live together for almost a month in the sea.
06:41 We can do this, we are doing this for our families.
06:44 But if the government declares that we will leave,
06:53 we will not go there.
06:58 The fishermen brought me to the part of the sea where they catch the shellfish.
07:04 They say that the China Coast Guard is prohibiting them from doing this.
07:08 But you are prohibited from catching the shells here, right?
07:11 Yes, here. We don't understand what they are saying, sir.
07:15 The sea in this part of Bajo de Macinloc is already destroyed.
07:19 Only a few years ago, the fish were still alive.
07:24 Aside from the colorful fish like porcupine fish and trigger fish,
07:28 I also noticed the small giant clam or "taklobo" that started to cling to the rocks.
07:35 Because the shellfish are already destroyed around Bajo de Macinloc,
07:39 in a far and deep part of the sea, the fishermen are able to catch the fish.
07:45 In the last mission of BFAR, there was no water pump from the Chinese.
07:49 But we were stopped near the bay of Bahura where the China Coast Guard has a floating barrier.
07:56 After we left there, the China Coast Guard also removed the barrier.
08:01 If the question is, are we already satisfied with what is happening now,
08:05 with how the Filipino fishermen can freely fish in Bajo de Macinloc,
08:10 I think we're not yet satisfied.
08:12 We believe that with the statement that we got from our Filipino fishermen,
08:17 that they were thankful with the presence of the Philippine government vessels.
08:21 Because every time we are there, they can freely fish because the coast guard or BFAR is harassing the Chinese coast guard.
08:31 It is being continued that the rotational presence of BFAR and PCG will be conducted in Bajo de Macinloc
08:38 to ensure the rights of the Filipino fishermen there and the security of their food.
08:45 For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, for 24 Hours.
