00:00 In addition to the 2024 proposed budget of the Transportation Department,

00:06 the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration also discussed the fund for the Coast Guard,

00:11 particularly for the expenses to monitor the seas of the country.

00:15 Cedric Castillo was in the spotlight.

00:17 The storm in Bajo de Masinloc this Friday and the expansion of China's barrier

00:25 so that it will not be entered by the Filipino fishermen,

00:30 in addition to the former dams in our seas that are monitored by the Philippine Coast Guard.

00:35 The agency said in the Senate hearing for the budget of the Transportation Department,

00:40 which is included in them,

00:42 they need to monitor up to P100 billion.

00:47 This big ship, which can be in the West Philippine Sea, is only P28.

00:52 If we will be assigning at least two vessels per regional offices,

00:59 that means we need 30 capital ships, 30 bigger ships.

01:03 2 billion times 30.

01:06 2 billion, Madam Chair, is a very conservative estimate.

01:10 This is separate from the lack of personnel, which is currently only 30,000.

01:15 That is far from the more than 100,000 personnel needed for the target of posting three personnel

01:23 per kilometer of the 36,000-kilometer coastline of the country.

01:28 The Senate Committee on Finance has already submitted the more than P214 billion 2024 budget proposal of the DOTR.

01:37 But before this, the DOTR first denied the $300 stolen from an airport passenger by an official of the Office of Transportation Security,

01:49 which is included in the Transportation Department.

01:51 The statement of OTS Administrator Undersecretary Mau Aplasca,

01:57 who was on leave and did not attend, was read by the committee.

02:00 Yesterday, the House Speaker called for Aplasca to resign.

02:04 Why I am now being attacked for going after corrupt officials?

02:09 The case involving stealing of $300 bill is still being resolved.

02:14 First of all, you investigators, there must be something wrong somewhere.

02:21 And even though Aplasca is promising full responsibility as a leader in any lack of OTS, he said,

02:29 However, I will not allow anyone to humiliate and allow any wrong information to thrive

02:37 because of how unjust it is to the good men and women of OTS.

02:41 My family, who in my more than 40 years serving the country, is hurting now more than ever

02:48 such insensitive, malicious, and personal attacks.

02:53 We will talk about this after the session. We should look into his position.

03:01 The DOTR promised the Senate that it will not take more than a month

03:05 to release the investigation results of the personnel of OTS.

03:11 For GMA Integrated News, Cedric Castillo, NKT, 24 Hours.
