00:00Senate President Cheese Escudero condemned the actions of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in the last two years.
00:07Meanwhile, Escudero laid out some provisions of the law that will be a priority in their return session.
00:14Here is the report.
00:19Before the assault of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.,
00:22PTV News interviewed Senate President Francis Escudero.
00:26And just now, the Senate President condemned the actions of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in the last two years.
00:56But I believe that because the President has the right intention and heart,
01:01he will be able to use it in the near future.
01:03Senate President Escudero also answered some of the things he wants to hear from the President.
01:27This is a chance for the President to talk to all of us and a chance for the President to listen.
01:34The day of the Senate is also the day of the reopening of the Congress and Senate session.
01:39They emphasized the provisions of the law that will be a priority for the administration,
01:45particularly those discussed in the LEDAC or Legislative Executive Development Advisory Council.
01:51Remember, last June, the LEDAC held a meeting where Escudero laid out some provisions of the law
01:57that will be a priority in their return session,
01:59while there are some provisions that need to be clarified.
02:04Escudero also answered their criticisms to the Senate.
02:08We will do our best to finish within this year because next year, our session will be only for more than a month.
02:14So, it will be a campaign.
02:16So, I hope we can finish everything this year.
02:20What are the things in my opinion that we are in a hurry for?
02:24Sometimes, the outcome is not good and it will start from the beginning,
02:28just like this PNP Reform Bill.
02:30So, it's better to be sure even if it's not fast,
02:34but when it's done, it's nailed to the rock and it's right.
02:37When Senate President Francis Escudero gave a speech,
02:39they also addressed some of the problems in our country,
02:43such as the problem of increasing the price of goods or inflation,
02:47and the problem in the West Philippine Sea.
02:50The number one thing that we should focus on is the price of rice.
02:54But at the same time, the price of rice should be lowered from domestic or foreign sources,
03:01so that we can strengthen our domestic production.
03:06So, this weakness, this incomprehension for me,
03:11is just a small bump in the long-term relationship between our country and China.
03:19This has been going on for hundreds of centuries.
03:22I believe that even though we have a territorial dispute between our country and China,
03:27this does not need to reach a point,
03:30and we should not get close to the point of war between our two countries.
03:38This is also Escudero's first time as a Senate President.
03:42How did he prepare for this?
03:44The Senator's funny answer.
03:46Nothing, just like that.
03:48Maybe I'll just drink some coffee,
03:52so that even if the speech is long, I won't be like that.
03:55And maybe the opening of the Senate,
03:59I expect to give a speech on behalf of the Senate.
04:03That's probably the only difference I prepared for this opening of the Senate.
