00:00Vice President Sara Duterte also made various reactions
00:04as the Education Secretary and Co-Vice Chairperson of the NTF-LCAC.
00:08Here is my report.
00:12My speech is not a cry of weakness,
00:18but a real concern for our Filipino teachers and youth.
00:26This is what Vice President Sara Duterte said
00:28after confirming her appointment as Education Secretary.
00:32According to the Vice President, she gave a 30-day notice
00:35to ensure a proper transition.
00:37Based on her resignation letter,
00:39her appointment as the Deputy Education Secretary
00:42and Co-Vice Chairperson of the NTF-LCAC is revocable.
00:44Although I will not continue to be in charge of the government,
00:50we will continue to uphold the quality of education
00:55that is right for Filipinos.
00:59I will continue to be a mother,
01:01a mother who is loyal and will stand for the welfare
01:07of every teacher and every student in the Philippines.
01:12In her statement, Vice President Sara did not mention why she resigned.
01:16She also did not give an additional statement
01:19about her field.
01:21According to the Presidential Communications Office,
01:23President Bongbong Marcos already accepted
01:25the resignation of Vice President Sara.
01:27ACT Teacher's Party Leader's Representative,
01:29Franz Castro, was pleased with the appointment of Vice President Sara.
01:32He hoped that she will do it soon
01:34so that she can be appointed as the Deputy Education Secretary
01:37who is from the education sector
01:39and knows what she is doing.
01:41Teacher's Dignity Coalition Chairperson, Benjo Basas, said
01:44that it would be better if the next vice president is not a politician.
01:47Willie Rodriguez, the National President of the PTA Philippines,
01:51said that they already have a lot of things to do and proposals.
01:55A few vice presidents were also elected to the Cabinet,
01:58such as former Vice President Salvador Laurel,
02:01Joseph Estrada, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo,
02:04Teofisto Gingona Jr., Jejomar Binay, and Lenny Robredo.
02:09The election of VP Sara to the Cabinet
02:11is a new turning point in the discussion
02:13on whether the UNITEAM will be formed.
02:15Just recently, VP Sara answered this.
02:18UNITEAM was the tandem during the 2022 elections
02:23and then the tandem of Bongbong Sara during the 2022 elections.
02:27And then we won the elections.
02:29Last year, it was the first time that there was a consensus
02:32between VP Sara and House Speaker Martin Romaldes.
02:35After his close ally,
02:38former Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo,
02:41VP Sara became a member of the Laka CMD party in May 2023.
02:46After that, the issue arose about the so-called VP Sara,
02:50who is a tambaluslos,
02:51a type of Bisaya to emphasize the character of a person.
02:54You're a tambaluslos.
02:56No comment. No comment on tambaluslos.
03:00VP Sara did not mention who she is.
03:02But when she did not mention the middle name
03:05of President Marcos Romaldes in an interview,
03:07it became a topic of conversation
03:09if the House Speaker is the one she is referring to.
03:11By September, the budget of the Office of the Vice President
03:14was already in the Congress.
03:16The use of 125 million pesos of confidential funds
03:21within 11 days was particular,
03:23even though the OVP has no allocation for this.
03:26The OVP is asking for 500 million pesos
03:28of new confidential funds
03:30along with the promises made by the Camera.
03:33Whoever is against confidential funds
03:37is against peace,
03:40against the country.
03:43By January this year,
03:45the promises of VP Sara's father,
03:48former President Rodrigo Duterte,
03:50against President Marcos, became controversial.
03:52Bongbong Marcos was arrogant back then.
03:55Now that he's the President,
03:57the President is arrogant.
04:00We're done.
04:04That allegation was made by President Marcos.
04:08I think it's the fentanyl.
04:10Fentanyl is the strongest painkiller that you can buy.
04:15It is highly addictive
04:18and it has very serious side effects.
04:23But this was not before the President and VP Sara.
04:26I would like to thank Apo BBM
04:29for his respect for my opinions.
04:32I have respect for the views and opinions
04:35of former President Rodrigo Duterte
04:38as well as my siblings.
04:40But just like my position on many issues,
04:44I don't need to agree with all of these.
04:48But First Lady Liza Marcos
04:50didn't like what happened.
04:52It's a bloodshed for me.
04:54I was always kind to her.
04:56For me, I was hurt because
04:58my husband will do everything to protect you.
05:00You run together, right?
05:02We'll get up together again.
05:04You'll go to the rally,
05:06your President will call you.
05:08You're going to laugh, right?
05:10Is that right?
05:12Even Lenny never did that.
05:13As a person,
05:15First Lady Liza Marcos has the right
05:18to feel bad and angry.
05:21But her personal feelings
05:24have nothing to do with my mandate
05:27as an official of the government.
