01:42The West Philippine Sea
01:44is not only our own thoughts.
01:47This is ours.
01:56And this will remain ours
01:58as long as the spirit of our beloved country, the Philippines, is alive.
02:06We will continue to fight for our rights
02:08in a fair and peaceful way
02:10and through free diplomatic channels.
02:13Our defense will grow stronger
02:15and we will find ways
02:16to de-escalate or reduce tensions.
02:19I know that our neighbors too
02:20are doing their best to make this work.
02:24The Philippines cannot yield.
02:26The Philippines cannot waver.
02:54When it comes to the campaign against drugs
02:57by the President,
02:58he called it an effective bloodless war on drugs.
03:01The President offered more than 44 billion pesos
03:04in the amount of drugs that were used in the operations
03:06and a 79% conviction rate.
03:24The President also encouraged
03:27the various administrations
03:29to regulate the economy,
03:31employment,
03:33el Nino and Calamidad,
03:35to take care of the OFWs,
03:37to strengthen tourism,
03:39infrastructure, and more.
03:41More than 200,000 jobs
03:43will be affected by the various investment pledges
03:45obtained by the administration.
03:47The President also offered
03:48to increase the minimum wage
03:49that has been passed
03:50in various parts of the country.
03:52He also hopes to increase the minimum wage
03:54and increase the allowance
03:55for government workers.
03:56For our government officials,
03:59they can expect a medical allowance
04:02as an additional benefit
04:04for the next year.
04:06There will also be an increase
04:08in the salary they will receive
04:10in the four tranches.
04:12We have already set up a fund
04:15for this from this year
04:17and for the next years.
04:19In the education sector,
04:21the President also set up a fund
04:22for the Expanded Career Progression System
04:24for public school teachers.
04:26With this system in place,
04:28we will accelerate
04:29the career growth of teachers.
04:31In this system,
04:32there will be no more public school teachers
04:34who will retire
04:36as Teacher 1 only.
04:40The problem of textbooks
04:42that should be up-to-date
04:43and error-free
04:44is now being solved.
04:45The low proficiency level
04:46that many students
04:47in information literacy,
04:49problem solving,
04:50and critical thinking.
04:51This will be the challenge
04:53in our new era
04:55to ensure the development
04:57and improvement of the quality
04:59of education in the country
05:00in the near future.
05:02It is also important for students
05:04to have access to electricity
05:05and internet.
05:06That is why the infrastructure
05:08for internet connectivity
05:09is being strengthened.
05:10Especially in Datusong 2022,
05:12only 20.6 million
05:14or 77% of the households
05:16in the Philippines are connected.
05:18In addition to strengthening the internet,
05:20cyber defense will also be strengthened.
05:22The President will not stop
05:24in addressing the high price of rice,
05:26particularly the price of rice
05:28which is still 45 to 65 pesos per kilo.
05:31Anya,
05:32no matter how good the statistics are,
05:34this is not a problem
05:35if people do not feel it.
05:37We do not neglect
05:39your weak and difficult experiences.
05:42Ani is high,
05:43but it is still not enough
05:44compared to the consumption of Filipinos.
05:46That is why it needs to rise.
05:47However,
05:48the local production will still be strengthened.
05:50The administration also suggested
05:52that under the 2025 budget,
05:54there will be additional benefits
05:56for pregnant women and mothers
05:57under the Pantawid Pamilyan Pilipino Program
