00:00 In the mouth of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. when he came, the Senate will be the first to amend the economic provisions of the Constitutional Law.
00:12 That's why the senators are thanking the President for his trust in them.
00:16 We will do everything to be transparent. And of course, we have talked about economic provisions only so it will not be controversial.
00:25 We will protect our Constitution and we will make sure that we go through the process.
00:34 I think it's clear and we thank the President for clarifying it. It's clear that he trusts the Senate.
00:42 But some senators are adamant that the Senate and the House of Representatives should vote to separate.
00:47 The House of Representatives will also discuss the economic charter change.
00:52 We are very supportive but not with the RBH 7 which says that we have to vote jointly.
01:01 We have to vote separately because the essence of bicameralism will not be enforced.
01:10 In the middle of the President's statement, the senators believe that the Senate and House of Representatives should vote to separate.
01:18 It should be over. It's important that we do our job because this fight will not end.
01:28 According to Senator JV Ejercito, there would be no problem if the first discussion was followed.
01:34 For Senator Bong Revilla, there's nothing wrong with the discussion of the House of Representatives while discussing the Senate.
01:42 It's faster to end the discussion.
