MANILA — The Armed Forces of the Philippines on Tuesday said it was considering other modes of resupplying the Philippine Navy ship BRP Sierra Madre at the Ayungin Shoal after China’s repeated efforts to block the military’s rotation and re-provisioning missions in the area.
“Lahat naman ng bagay na yan ay kinukunsidera because what we want to accomplish actually is a successful RORE mission without interference from any party at all. So lahat yan ay kinu-consider, and even other modes of resupply, we can consider that also,” Aguilar said without elaborating. “Napakadelikado yung ginawang pagmaniobra ng China kung ito ay karagatan, tubig, hindi ito katulad ng kalsada na pwede agad kang magpreno o magpalit ng direksyon," he said.
“So yun ang tinitignan natin dito dahil maliit ang kanilang bangka, ito po ay made of indigenous materials, kahoy. So the possibility of this being destroyed against a metal vessel is very imminent kaya nagkaroon ng ganitong reaksyon ang ating bansa sa ginawa ng Tsina.”
