China Coast Guard vessels have been seen 30 nautical miles from the shores of Masinloc , Zambales, the head of a group of fishermen said Monday."Sa ngayon nga 'yung kanilang mga barko ay nakakapagpatrolya na sila hanggang 30 milyahe mula dito sa pampang. Natatanaw na po namin ‘yung barko nila ," Leonardo Cuaresma, president of New Masinloc Fisherman’s Association, said in an interview on Dobol B TV.Asked if it seems the CCG are getting nearer, Cuaresma replied: "Tama po.
"'Yung ating mga mangigisda ngayon ay kung saan hindi nila natatanaw 'yung mga kalaban natin diyan na mga China Coast Guard ay doon na lang sila nakakapangisda. At tanging pangangawil 'yung ginagawa ng ating mga kasamahan diyan sa mga payaw na naka-deploy sa gitna ng karagatan," he added.Although the government has assured the fishermen that its military will patrol the WPS and the PCG will protect them, the fishermen are still wary of venturing out farther.
