00:00There is no basis for their sovereignty.
00:03That is what China is aiming at in the new maritime law of the Philippines
00:06where the formal mention of the West Philippine Sea is also mentioned.
00:11But according to a geopolitical analyst,
00:13according to our maritime zones law,
00:15in the international law,
00:17JP Soriano is right.
00:22The new laws that govern the maritime zones
00:26and archipelagic sea lanes of the Philippines
00:28are important to China.
00:30According to the Chinese foreign ministry,
00:32Beijing called our ambassador,
00:34Jaime Flor Cruz,
00:36to arrive at their
00:38maritime condemnation.
00:40According to China,
00:42there is no basis for any law of the Philippines
00:44based on the 2016
00:46Arbitral Award that the Philippines
00:48won.
00:50They claim that their sovereignty,
00:52rights, and interests
00:54in the South China Sea
00:56are based on the history
00:58and the law that they comply with
01:00in the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea
01:02or UNCLOS.
01:04And they are not affected by our maritime zones act.
01:06Ambassador Flor Cruz
01:08has yet to be appointed
01:10by our Department of Foreign Affairs
01:12regarding the summons of Beijing.
01:14Unlike China, America
01:16supports the maritime Zones Act.
01:18But according to the geopolitical analyst,
01:20Don McLean Gill,
01:22China is wrong
01:24that our maritime zones law
01:26is not in accordance with international law.
01:28This was drawn from
01:30international law.
01:32So I think that that is again another
01:34disinformation that is being spread.
01:36And we have to be very careful about
01:38the information that we uphold
01:40regarding these sort of activities.
01:42The three official
01:44sea lanes in the country
01:46are governed by the
01:48Archipelagic Sea Lanes
01:50where ships and airplanes
01:52may be civilian or military.
01:54The three sea lanes
01:56do not include the
01:5810-line claim of China.
02:00According to Prof. J. Batong-Bacal,
02:02this law is directed
02:04to the maritime vehicles
02:06of any country
02:08that may pass through the Philippine waters
02:10from China
02:12or allied countries.
02:14When it comes to
02:16military vessels and aircraft,
02:18at least we can
02:20confine them
02:22to the Archipelagic Sea Lanes
02:24that we will designate.
02:26It's not where they
02:28want to pass through.
02:30For GMA Integrated News,
02:32JP Soriano,
02:3424 Hours.
02:36So that it won't be heavy
02:38to buy in the upcoming Christmas,
02:40there are some people who are eager
02:42to buy Noche Buena items.
02:44DTI will release a price guide
02:46in Viennese.
02:48This is Yvonne Aquino.
03:18Philippine Amalgamated Supermarkets
03:20Association of Pag-asa.
03:22They expect an adjustment
03:24of Noche Buena items prices
03:26when Christmas is near.
03:28Pag-asa said that DTI will release
03:30a price guide in Viennese
03:32for Noche Buena items.
03:34There are more sale items
03:36in supermarkets now.
03:38That's why it's a pioneer
03:40for buyers.
03:42If you are ready and you know
03:44what we will prepare for Noche Buena
03:46then buy now.
03:48It's cheaper.
03:50According to the Philippine Statistics Authority
03:52or PSA, from September to October,
03:54the price of some
03:56Noche Buena items increased
03:58like sweet ham, fruit cocktail,
04:00processed cheese, mayonnaise, and spaghetti sauce.
04:02We are preparing
04:04the price guide of Noche Buena
04:06for this year. Just wait
04:08for it. We will announce it
04:10to help them budget
04:12and see
04:14what options they can choose
04:16to prepare for Noche Buena.
