President Rodrigo Duterte said that Chinese officials have offered their helicopter for him to go to West Philippine Sea so he could plant the Philippine flag there.
“Sabi nila huwag ka nang magpagod-pagod diyan, gusto mo kunin ka namin ng helicopter dalhin ka na lang namin doon mag-meryenda tayo? Ganoon kami kaibigan ng China pati ‘yung military nila. Medyo matagtag na nga,” he said during the press conference March 23 after his visit to Thailand and Myanmar when asked if his jet ski remark during the campaign period changed.
“Maya-maya makasagasa ka pa ng pating diyan mawalaan ka pa ng paa,” he added, if he will use a jet ski.
“Ganun ang party nila, kumain kami. Sabi niya ang magtanong isang general: Mag-jet ski ka? Sabi ko: Oo. Sa isa: Bakit? Gusto mong pumunta doon? ‘Oo.’ ‘Sige, kukuha ng helicopter dalhin ka namin doon, magdala ka ng flag doon o bayang magiliw tayong lahat’,” Duterte further narrated.
“So what’s the use?” President Duterte said. “You can go there any time. I said, I told them ganito ‘yan, since you are claiming it, I am claiming it, do not impede our travel there.”
“Sabi ko, my coast guard — not the gray ships, not the Navy, huwag. They can go there and visit you, shake your hands, and you can park dito sa amin,” he said. “Wala akong sikreto sabi ko, you can travel around the island at magba-bye ka lang sa fish na nandoon. Island… Sabi ko – you can pass by my territory.”
He said that China may pass by Philippine territory, they just need to inform the military and Philippine government.
“As a matter fact ‘yung Russia nagpadala ng battleship. I said sabi ko, tapatan mo lahat. Nandoon na ‘yung Amerikano, nagpunta na ang Russo, pag… Bigyan mo kami ng exhibit sa inyo. Sabi nila, okay, we will be sending the biggest ship of China. Sabi niya, sige. Sabi ko, sige bisita kayo, magbisita ako,” the President said.
“So I don’t know what kind of… Maybe their aircraft carrier. There are about two. Ginagawa na nila. You are free to enter — just inform my Navy. Inform the Foreign Secretary — Foreign Affairs Secretary, inform my Navy, wala tayong… Maglaro- laro tayo doon. Gusto mo mag-giyera- giyera kayo ng America pero ‘yung sound lang muna. Wala ‘yung totohanan kasi madamay kami because why?” he added.
“I’d like to tell why? I do not want to precipitate a shooting. Once single boom, ang masira ano, ‘yang Panatag, ‘yang Spratly, ang masira ‘yung Palawan, ‘yan ang unang puputok kung hindi kayo bright,” he explained.
