This is the reason why they sent the research vessel. It was to analyze the undersea cables.

This is why we are having lag right now


**From BNC --** *The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has been coordinating with relevant government agencies and private telecommunications companies to determine whether a Chinese research vessel capable of cutting subsea cables had operated near critical undersea cable routes off Batanes province.*

*PCG spokesperson Rear Adm. Jay Tarriela said authorities were pinpointing the exact locations of subsea cables in the area and comparing them with the foreign vessel’s movements after it was spotted about 37 nautical miles off Itbayat town where it stayed for several days before being challenged by PCG personnel.*

*He said the effort was aimed at determining whether the Chinese research vessel Jiang Hai Ke 7 had operated near any cable infrastructure and whether its presence in the area was related to the cables.*

*“There are a lot of subsea cables up north that connect the Philippines and other areas. So we would like to believe that the presence of the Chinese research vessel there has something to do with it,” Tarriela said in an interview on Bilyonaryo News Channel’s “At The Forefront” program on Friday.*

*He said the privately owned vessel had the capability to install and cut subsea cables, making its presence near the Philippines’ undersea cable infrastructure a matter of concern.*

*Tarriela stressed, however, that authorities still needed to establish whether the vessel’s activities brought it near any of the cable routes.*

*The PCG earlier deployed the BRP Teresa Magbanua after a Coast Guard aircraft detected the Chinese research vessel during a maritime domain awareness flight.*

*The PCG later moved to disrupt the unauthorized marine scientific research after determining that the vessel did not have the necessary authorization from the Philippine government.*

*Tarriela said the BRP Teresa Magbanua remained deployed in the area to ensure that the Chinese research vessel and the China Coast Guard ship accompanying it would leave the Philippine waters.*

*“As we speak right now, BRP Teresa Magbanua remains to be in the vicinity. We wanted to really make sure that this Chinese research vessel together with her bodyguard 2503 to leave the waters in Batanes,” he said.*
