You might have seen this on some platforms, two Chinese ships have collided after one chased a Philippine Coast Guard vessel in the South China Sea.

你們可能在一些平臺上看到過這個消息，兩艘中國船隻在南海追逐一艘菲律賓海岸警衛隊船隻後相撞。

It's the latest dangerous encounter between the two nations with competing claims in this resource-rich waterway.

這是兩國在這條資源豐富的水道上的最新一次危險交鋒。

Cliff Venson joins us from Manila to help us understand what happened.

克利夫-文森（Cliff Venson）從馬尼拉發回報道，幫助我們瞭解發生了什麼。

So, Cliff, we've seen the videos, walk us through the events of how this eventually took place.

所以，克里夫，我們已經看過視頻了，帶我們回顧一下這一切最終是如何發生的。

Yes, so, it happened during an operation of Philippine Coast Guard.

是的，那麼，它發生在菲律賓海岸警衛隊的一次行動中。

It's an operation meant to support Philippine fishermen in the Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea.

這是一次旨在支持南海斯卡伯勒淺灘菲律賓漁民的行動。

And then, you know, usually when Philippine boats operate there, the Chinese ships would attempt to drive the Philippine vessels away.

然後，你知道，通常當菲律賓船隻在那裡作業時，中國船隻會試圖驅趕菲律賓船隻。

So, what happened yesterday when the Chinese vessels were trying to chase a Philippine Coast Guard ship, a Chinese Navy vessel, I would guess, accidentally rammed into the China Coast Guard ship, which damaged the Chinese vessel.

是以，昨天當中國船隻試圖追趕菲律賓海岸警衛隊船隻時，我猜一艘中國海軍船隻不小心撞上了中國海岸警衛隊船隻，導致中國船隻受損。

So, we are starting to see some tensions flaring up again in this part of the South China Sea.

是以，我們開始看到南海的這一地區再次出現緊張局勢。

Yeah, quite a bit of damage too, as we saw in some of those pictures as well, Cliff.

是啊，損失也不小，我們在一些照片中也看到了，克里夫。

This latest incident, though, does add to the tensions, as you say, and there was also the president and his comments on Taiwan.

不過，正如你所說，最近發生的這起事件確實加劇了緊張局勢，此外還有總統及其對臺灣的評論。

So, this encounter happened days after the Chinese foreign ministry protested against Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos' comments on Taiwan, saying that President Marcos is actually playing with fire when it comes to the issue of Taiwan.

是以，這次會面發生在中國外交部抗議菲律賓總統費迪南德-馬科斯有關臺灣問題的言論幾天之後，稱馬科斯總統在臺灣問題上實際上是在玩火。

But yesterday, despite this protest, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos reiterated that Philippines could actually be pulled into a conflict over Taiwan, simply because of the geographical proximity between the Philippines and Taiwan.

但昨天，儘管有這樣的抗議，菲律賓總統費迪南德-馬科斯還是重申，菲律賓實際上可能被捲入臺灣衝突，原因很簡單，因為菲律賓和臺灣在地理位置上非常接近。

And also, the president reiterated that Philippines will continue to protect its interests and sovereign rights in the South China Sea.

總統還重申，菲律賓將繼續保護其在南海的利益和主權權利。
