00:00China threatened to crush anyone who dares to enter their territory and sovereignty.
00:09Following the arrest, where it was said, in the Philippines,
00:13its ship was removed from Esco the Shoe,
00:17the answer of our Foreign Affairs Department to the arrest of Joseph Moro.
00:22To the assistance of the Bilateral Consultation Mechanism or BCM between the Philippines and China in Beijing yesterday,
00:31China said in the Philippines to remove the Philippine ships from Escoda or Sabina Shoal.
00:37China did not mention the names of these ships, but they have been in Escoda Shoal for 5 months.
00:43The BRP stayed in Magbanua to guard the area due to the fear of reclaiming the land of China there.
00:49This August, some parts of the BRP Teresa Magbanua were destroyed after being bombed by the China Coast Guard.
00:56It was also surrounded by other Chinese vessels, but the BRP Teresa Magbanua did not leave.
01:02In the BCM yesterday, the Chinese Foreign Ministry reduced their position in Escoda Shoal.
01:08Aside from calling on the Philippines to remove our ships there, they continued to take care of their sovereignty in the area.
01:16But when Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Teresa Lazaro insisted that Escoda Shoal is inside the Exclusive Economic Zone or EEZ of the Philippines,
01:24the BCM also discussed how to lower the tensions in the area.
01:29According to the National Maritime Council, the Philippines will not leave Escoda Shoal.
01:35The Philippines has sovereignty, sovereign rights, and jurisdiction in its EEZ that follows the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea or UNCLOS,
01:43a 2016 arbitral award.
01:45China's presence and activities are illegal and against the law.
01:51The Philippine Navy is ready for any attack by China.
01:55One of the options that the other side can do is to attack, but there are already contingencies in place.
02:01Our Western Command knows what to do in case this would escalate.
02:07According to the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines, they are aware of what is happening in the area and are ready to take action to protect their territorial sovereignty and maritime rights.
02:18According to Chinese Army Lieutenant General He Lei in an interview, the South China Sea should remain peaceful.
02:24But if America pushes other countries or itself to the front line, the People's Liberation Army will lose its patience.
02:31They will crush any attempt to invade the territorial sovereign and maritime rights of China.
02:38We are trying to get permission from America in accordance with the permission of China,
02:43but in an interview with the U.S. Ambassador to the Philippines, America again expressed support to the Philippines.
02:49I can certainly say that the 9-line or now 10-line that China has drawn as base is a cartoon.
02:57That's not based in law. That is not a factual representation of international maritime law.
03:05The Philippine Navy admitted that they noticed a 100-kilometer distance from Palawan in Escoda Shoal.
03:13In the past few days, hundreds of Chinese ships were spotted in the West Philippine Sea. Many were in Escoda Shoal.
03:20More than 200 Chinese ships and Chinese maritime militia vessels were monitored by the Philippine Navy last week,
03:28which is the highest number this year.
03:30For Maritime Law Expert Professor Jay Batumbacal, the Philippines should not give up,
03:36especially if China's actions in the West Philippine Sea are based on a plan.
03:43Within this year probably, that's what they want to do, to take the West Philippine Sea completely.
03:50Either by us withdrawing or simply acquiescing to their demands.
03:58Hence all the threats, all the provocations. We cannot withdraw on the basis of threats.
04:04For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, for 24 Hours.
