They were laughing while they were shooting the boat,” a source who had seen the video of the Philippine Coast Guard shooting of fishing boat Guang Ta Hsin 28 three weeks ago said Saturday.<br /><br />“It is disturbing and embarrassing for Philippine law enforcers,” the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told the Inquirer in an interview.<br /><br />...<br /><br />The source said the video showed the fishing boat, after sailing side by side with the MCS-3001, a patrol vessel owned by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources but manned by coast guards, peeled away and moved in “circles, as if daring the (Coast Guard vessel to come after it.”<br /><br />...<br /><br />Two other sources who had seen the video confirmed the statements of the first source.<br /><br />--------------<br /><br /><br />(1) PH coast guards was laughing while shooting.<br /><br />(2) The fishing boat was moving in "circle". From this news report, it seems like it didn't try to ram the PCG boat. In the original PCG statement, it not only mentioned the fishing boat moved backward trying to ram PCG boat but also mentioned it caused PCG to maneuver urgently to avoid being rammed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-50407548140536804412013-05-31T13:51:31.438+08:002013-05-31T13:51:31.438+08:00http://blog.udn.com/googletidings/7694038
