Defiant fishermen

目中無人的漁民

In Ayungin Shoal, meanwhile, Filipino fishermen were braving harassment from Chinese vessels now brazenly operating in the area, which is within the country’s 200-mile exclusive economic zone.

與此同時，在距離菲律賓不到200海里的EEZ內的仁愛礁（偷換概念），漁民們勇敢地面對中國船隻的明目張胆地騷擾。

Kalayaan Mayor Eugenio Bito-onon said Chinese maritime vessels have become very aggressive in driving away local fishermen around Ayungin Shoal.

中業島村長Bito-onon（就是平時住在本土，出海參加競選還在仁愛礁被海監驅趕的那位）說，中國海監船已經開始非常好鬥地驅趕仁愛礁的菲律賓漁船，

“But they’re unsuccessful because they’re up against Filipino sea hustlers who’ve been fishing in that area for decades. Our fishermen have full knowledge of the sea in the entire Spratlys, unlike the Chinese who are just new to the area,” Bito-onon.

“但他們不成功，因為他們對付的是在這裡已經打魚幾十年的菲律賓海上老手。我們的漁民對整個南沙都極度熟悉，不像中國只是剛來的新人（幾十年也敢稱自古以來）。”村長說。

Over the past two weeks, Chinese naval and maritime ships have taken positions near Ayungin Shoal as Beijing continues to flex its muscle and assert its territorial claim to almost the entire South China Sea and West Philippine Sea.

在過去的兩個星期里，中國軍艦和海監船位於仁愛礁附近，北京在南海秀肌肉說自古以來南沙是我的balabala……

China reportedly has two surveillance ships and a frigate in the vicinity of Ayungin Shoal, an area being guarded by a handful of Filipino troops stationed on a grounded Philippine Navy logistic ship, BRP Sierra Madre.

中國兩艘海監船和一艘護衛艦在仁愛礁旁邊，仁愛礁上是幾個狒狒兵把守的破船。

Ayungin Shoal is part of the Philippines’ regime of islands in the hotly contested Spratlys group, to which four other countries – Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei – have claims.

各國和WW都要南沙的主權（廢話不翻譯了，這記者還支持台獨）。

After establishing positions in the waters near Malaysia, Chinese vessels are now trying to dislodge Filipino troops from Ayungin by blocking their supply route, the military said.

軍方說，中國船隻在馬來西亞附近水域建立了補給點後（？匪夷所思，估計指的是美濟礁），現在開始阻斷仁愛礁破船的補給線，試圖將守軍驅走。

Bito-onon said “our hustler-fishermen can easily do the job” of re-supplying the small Filipino garrison in Ayungin.

村長說：“我們好棒好棒的漁民在為破船上的阿兵哥提供補給，這個容易辦到。”

Aside from acting as escorts to Chinese fishing boats in the area, large Chinese vessels are also engaged in naval operations in the vicinity – apparently aimed at intimidating local fishermen and the coast guard.

中國在仁愛礁除了執法船護漁，大型軍艦也被部署在旁邊執行作戰任務，顯然是為了恐嚇狒狒漁民和海警。

（後面是村長呼籲加強島礁建設，說中國和越南搞得不錯，不翻譯了）

狒狒軍艦都被海監和海軍堵回去好幾次了，後來他們宣布不再派軍艦補給和監視，而是要用“無武裝船隻”運送補給，用飛機和民船監控局勢。村長說的就是目前的情況，他們用小漁船向破船偷運補給品。

仁愛礁的問題是礁盤破碎、缺口太多，繩子沒用。而且缺口水淺，30噸以上的船難以進入（空載的登陸艦艇除外）。小漁船很容易進入潟湖，抵達西北礁盤內側的破船。看來必須要調集海監地方隊的高速小船了，以美濟礁為基地，輪換進入仁愛礁潟湖驅逐漁船。
