00:00 The lawmakers are concerned that the Senate leader will not change his mind.

00:05 This is the reason why Senator President Juan Miguel Zubiri is in the middle of a meeting.

00:10 Daniel Manalasta is the reporter.

00:12 The Senator is in the middle of a meeting to replace the Senate leader,

00:20 Senator President Juan Miguel Zubiri.

00:23 But his fellow senators immediately ignored him.

00:26 The timing is off, we would say.

00:32 But as far as I'm concerned, and as far as the members of the majority

00:37 that we talked to the past 24 hours,

00:42 we're all solidly behind our inspirational leader, Senator Miguel Zubiri.

00:46 And we feel that there's no one more deserving at this point in time to lead the Senate

00:51 other than our Senate President Miguel Zubiri.

00:55 I think it's divide and conquer.

00:57 Of course, we have people who are not in favor of the House.

01:00 I think it's divide and conquer.

01:04 The two Houses are competing.

01:08 The two Houses are not far from having this kind of agreement.

01:15 According to Senator Loren Legarda,

01:17 the Senate leader has no alternative if he will be asked.

01:20 And they fully support the Senate leader.

01:23 Legarda also can't say where the gossip came from.

01:27 Who's to say what's normal and abnormal.

01:30 As far as I'm concerned, there is no leadership change.

01:35 One of the names that might have been a mistake with Zubiri is Senator Gingoy Estrada.

01:41 But he himself has no idea.

01:43 I have no idea about the resolution. I do not know where that came from.

01:47 Okay?

01:48 But what could it be, sir?

01:50 I don't know. I don't know.

01:52 You're one of the candidates.

01:54 You're the one who's being pd.

01:56 I don't know. I haven't talked to a single senator about it.

02:00 Senator Sani Angara said that if there's such a thing, he thinks it won't succeed.

02:06 Senator Nancy Binay called that this is just an intrigue.

02:11 For Senator Ivy Marcos,

02:13 It's okay. Her job is bad. She doesn't have any interest.

02:17 [Laughs]

02:19 Honestly.

02:20 According to Zubiri, he learned the truth last week.

02:24 But they will continue with their work.

02:26 I serve at the pleasure of my colleagues.

02:28 I'm extremely honored to serve at the pleasure of my colleagues.

02:32 I leave it to the wisdom of my majority.

02:37 We'll know today.

02:39 We'll know today if I give you a farewell dinner or not, right?

02:43 But if not, let's continue working.

02:45 Daniel Manalastas for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
