“More than a week after a Philippine fishing boat was allegedly sunk by a Chinese vessel in the disputed South China Sea, the Philippines’ president, Rodrigo Duterte, has broken his silence on the matter, downplaying the incident as ‘just a collision.’

Makalumos ang laway sa labing kusgan.
Kugita ang iyang dila sa akong dunggan.
Ay, ang iyang pagbuak sa kahilom 

labaw pa’y gipatulon ko’g tuyom! 
Gaaso akong dugo; iyang gipabukalan.
Iyang puting itlog lamia baya lapwaan.
