00:00The Chinese Coast Guard's monster ship was found at Bajo de Macinluc in the West Philippine Sea.
00:06The Philippine Coast Guard said that the fishermen were far away from the ship.
00:12Hati Eddi Chino Gaston reports.
00:17Using the Dark Vessel Detection of Canada detected by the Philippine Coast Guard,
00:21the vessel 5901, or the so-called monster ship of the Chinese Coast Guard,
00:28sailed 54 nautical miles from Capones Island in Zambales.
00:33That's why the BRP Cabra and the Caravan Reconnaissance Aircraft were immediately sent
00:38to see what the monster ship was doing.
00:41At 5 p.m. this Saturday, the presence of the ship was confirmed at Bajo de Macinluc.
00:51From RRB 4409, we are reminding you that you are inside in the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
01:00Please leave this area immediately. Over.
01:06The PCG said that the Philippine fishermen were far away from the ship.
01:10They want to legitimize their presence in the vicinity of Bajo de Macinluc.
01:17I think this also threatens our Philippine fishermen so that they cannot fish in the Bajo de Macinluc area.
01:24On June 20, 2024, the monster ship near BRP Sierra Madre in Ayungin Shoal was sighted,
01:29compared to 2,265 tons of BRP Teresa Magbanua and Melchor Aquino,
01:35which are the largest ships of our Coast Guard,
01:38five times larger than the monster ship of China weighing 12,000 tons.
01:43This is the largest Coast Guard ship in the world.
01:46We are still trying to get a statement from the Chinese Embassy regarding this.
01:50The Philippine Navy is continuing to investigate where the underwater drone was found in San Pascual, Masbate.
01:56It is not yet known who owns it and what its capabilities are.
02:01But for the PCG, there used to be underwater drones used by China inside the EEZ of the Philippines.
02:07This has been going on for the past few years.
02:10We need a thorough evaluation of the data obtained from this.
02:17Obviously, this violates our sovereign rights.
02:22Military historian and defense analyst Jose Antonio Custodio
02:26believes that China is looking for a route to get their naval assets or submarines out of the Pacific Ocean.
02:33If there is a small gap, you will see that the Chinese are sending probes to map the area so that their submarines can enter.
02:43You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand that.
02:46The Philippine Navy has yet to respond to Custodio's statement.
02:49But a source of GMA Integrated News said that the drone found should not be left to chance based on the initial investigation.

03:03Thanks for watching.
