Ang pinagdadaanan nating harassment ngayon, ang pinagdadaanan nating swarming ng Chinese maritime militia at ang presensya ng Chinese Coast Guard sa West Philippine Sea, this is not something new. This has been happening years back.
00:20.0
So ito ang isa sa mga kinakaharap ng Philippine Coast Guard mula noon hanggang ngayon.
00:25.0
Pangalawa, if you're going to ask gaano ba talaga kahirap magpatulya sa West Philippine Sea, you have to consider the fact na kapag bumitaw ang Philippine Coast Guard vessel sa Palawan, kailangan niya ma-maximize yung presence niya, lalo na yung fuel usage niya for the next 5 to 7 days at least.
00:46.0
So ma-imagine mo lang Christian, sa isang ilang oras lang siguro ng alon-alon, maihilo ka na, what more kung 5 to 7 days ka nagpapatulya tapos magpagpatintero ka pa, bubulihin ka pa, yan yung pangalawang hirap.
01:06.0
Then pangatlo, isa siguro sa mga naging nabago na pakiramdam ng mga Coast Guard at armed forces of the Philippines natin, ngayon kasi dahil sa pagsasapubliko natin ang ginagawa nila, mas nararamdaman nila yung relevance nila sa West Philippine Sea.
01:29.0
Unlike before, they were just unsung heroes. Very rare makakabasa ng balita na mayroon palang barco ng Philippine Navy, mayroon palang barco ng Philippine Coast Guard na nasa laot ng pag-asa.
01:42.0
At least ngayon alam natin na itong mga barco na ito, ganito ang ginagawa, ganito ang pinagdadaanan, nawawater ka noon, nahahawas, nabubuli. So these are the three, para sa akin, these are the three concerns na dapat nating makonsider every time we look at the Philippine Navy, we look at the Philippine Coast Guard and try to imagine ano ang buhay ng mga tao na itong naka-assign sa barco.
02:10.0
And then of course you should also consider Christian. Yung mga sundalo naman natin, members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and Philippine Coast Guard na nakatao sa mga isla natin. Walang internet dyan, walang kuryente, walang tubig, very limited lang. Rain catcher pa rin ang ginagamit ng isla natin for them to be able to have drinking water.
02:40.0
Ito ang isa sa mga hirap din, yung communication nila sa outside world. Kaya pasabihin natin isang buwan lang yan, try to imagine sa panahon ngayon kung gaano kahirap ma-disconnect sa internet.
03:10.0
How dangerous were the maneuvers initiated by Chinese vessels?
03:40.0
And then ikat ka ng truck, nagmabilis. Tapos mapapapredo pa. Sa kalye, mas maintindihan mo kasi pag nag-emergency brake ka, nag-handbrake ka, hihinto agad yung sasakyan. Pero sa dagat, wala namang emergency brake.
03:59.0
So you have to stop the engine. But mayroon pan-drift, mayroon pan-tulak yan dahil sa drift mo as you move forward.
04:10.0
So kaya lagi ko sinasabi, we should recognize the seamanship skills ng ating Philippine Coast Guard skippers, ating commanding officers.
04:21.0
Because they were able to stop and prevent the Philippine Coast Guard from colliding with the China Coast Guard. Dahil you really need to have a presence of mind to command, to stop all engine, and then to make sure na yung drift mo, ma-arrest mo for you to at least move backward.
04:42.0
So ito yung dangerous maneuver na ginagawa ng China. Lagi niya kinakat yung mas maliit na barko, samantalang sila mas malaki. The objective of the Chinese Coast Guard, why they're doing this?
04:55.0
Kasi also kung makikita mo Christian, nag-release din ng China Coast Guard ng mga photos and videos nila. Yung mga photos and videos na nilabas nila, ang mapapansin mo, ang akala mo, tayo ang bumabanga sa barko nila.
05:11.0
Where in fact, tinanggal na nila yung part na kinat nila yung Philippine Coast Guard vessel. So ang objective nila ito, kung hindi tayo makakapagpahinto ng Philippine Coast Guard vessel, ang tendency parang tayo yung bumanga.
05:26.0
So panalo na naman sila sa propaganda nila, sa narrative nila na Philippine Coast Guard ram China Coast Guard vessel. Kaya yan yung lagi nilang ginagawa. Kinakat nila tayo ng mabilis, tapos tayo yung kumaning officers natin ng barko, ang magpapakahirap na gawa ng paraan para hindi man lang magdikit ang unahan natin, tsaka yung katawan nila.
05:51.0
Tapos pag bumanga, bukod sa tayo pa yung palalabasin na gram, tayo siyempre mas mapipinsala dahil tayo mas maliit. Tama po ba?
06:00.0
Napakasalbahe ah. So this happens regularly?
06:05.0
Yes. Every time na meron tayong resupply na may ganitong engagement ng ating Chinese Coast Guard vessels, ganyan ang ginagawa nila sa mas maliliit nating barko.
06:18.0
So para mag-visualize lang ng mga taga-pakinigin natin Christian, parang isakang maliit na kotse na kinat ng isang 10-wheeler truck.
06:29.0
Tapos pag bumanga ka, ikaw yung mapipinsala?
06:32.0
Ikaw pa yung bumanga. Sabihin pa nila binanga mo sila.
06:59.0
Ano ba yung pwedeng gawin? Kasi bukod pa dyan, nandyan pa yung pinatawid na maritime militia. Ano ba yung mga pwedeng gawin to actually deal with those situations better?
07:29.0
The Philippine Coast Guard also recognizes ang relevance ng pagpapile natin ng diplomatic protests. Kahit sinasabi ng mga ilang tao na we have filed a lot of diplomatic protests, wala namang nangyayari, pero there's really significance to it.
07:45.0
Kung hihinto tayo mag-file ng diplomatic protests, parang we ended up being submissive dun sa nangyari na iyon. Kaya we should not get tired of filing diplomatic protests.
07:55.0
Every time na may ginagawa silang mali, we file diplomatic protests.
07:59.0
Secondly, kung ang tenong, ano pa ba ang option ng Pilipinas?
08:04.0
Ako Christian, I've always been a believer of a credible defense posture. Naniniwala ako na ang armed forces of the Philippines natin needs to be modernized.
08:16.0
Isa to talaga, at least masasabi natin meron tayong maayos na armed forces of the Philippines.
08:23.0
And then pangalawa na, magkaroon ng Philippine Coast Guard modernization din, at least makapag-acquire tayo ng mas malalaking barco.
08:32.0
Tinanong ako during my previous interviews, ilang barco daw ng Philippine Coast Guard ang mas malaki na at least kahit papano mga katapat sa 110-115 meters na haba ng mga China Coast Guard vessels.
08:48.0
Sabi ko, dalawang 97 meters at isang 83 meters na galing sa France. Yung dalawa na una na galing sa Japan.
08:57.0
Kung meron mga deployment itong tatlong barco na ito sa Luzon, Visayas at Mindanao, very rare kang makakakuha ng isang malaking barco na ma-deploy mo sa Palawan.
09:12.0
So kung meron tayong mas malalaking barco, at least magkakaroon tayo ng mas maayos na presensya sa West Philippine Sea.
09:20.0
And then the next option is for us to strengthen our cooperation with other countries with like-minded states.
09:31.0
Lagi naman sinasabi ng ilang mouthpiece. Lagi nilang sinisise ang US kaya daw tayo hinaharas ng China, kaya daw tayo inaaway ng China dahil sa US.
09:49.0
Pero ang tanong ko nga dyan, sa nakalang administration, we have already moved away from strengthening the alliance natin with the United States.
10:02.0
Pero nothing has changed so much. Meron pa rin tayong mga cases doon na ang Filipino fishermen hinaharas sa Bajo de Macinloc.
10:09.0
Ganoon din, water cannon din ang ating resupply vessel. So ano ba ang point of reference ng mga mouthpieces na nagsasabing United States ang dapat natin sisihin kung bakit tayo ginagawa ng China yan sa atin ngayon.
10:27.0
So until now, these are the concerns na gusto kong ma-clarify sa kanila.
10:34.0
At dagdag kaalaman sir, miski wala ang United States sa picture na yan, meron siyempre ang sariling agenda ang China sa bakura na ito.
10:41.0
That's why what they're trying to do is they're trying to box out so-called third parties.
10:46.0
Narrative nila, tayo magkapit-bahi. Matagal na tayo magkaibigan. Dagat lang naghihiwalay sa atin.
10:53.0
So tayo mag-usap, sinasabi nila bilateral. Pero we've tried the bilateral track.
10:58.0
And as those who participate in those bilateral negotiations could attest, napakahirap kausap ng China one-on-one.
11:28.0
So that's our video na makatutulong po sa pagpapakalat ng tamang impormasyon para sa bawat Pilipino.
