00:00A senator accused the transfer of funds from the Office of the Vice President to distribute the books of the Vice President and the programs of the OVP
00:14which is the same as what other government agencies are doing.
00:18It's worth more than a million pesos.
00:21Mau Gonzalez was shocked.
00:23Senator Riza Contiveros already received the book, Isang Kaibigan, which was written by Vice President Sara Duterte
00:33and the government will spend 10 million pesos to distribute it to young students.
00:38I scanned it. The illustrations are colorful.
00:43Later, I will read the overpacking of the books.
00:48It was sent by the Vice President, as promised yesterday,
00:51after she did not detail the story of the book she wrote.
00:54At the same time, the budget hearing was politicized.
00:57Madam Chair, the explanation is in the title, Isang Kaibigan. It's about friendship.
01:02I wish the answer was like that from the start. It's very simple.
01:07A simple question should have a simple answer.
01:09In November 2023, Vice President Sara Duterte published this book that she signed.
01:15Long live the President!
01:19There is a bird and it has a lot of friends.
01:25Something bad happened in its life and all of its friends are gone.
01:30It thought that all of its friends are gone, but there is one that came back and helped it.
01:35That is the lesson in the book, friendship and kindness.
01:43In the last page of the book, there is not only the name but also the illustration of Vice President Sara.
01:48It is written that she is a true friend.
01:51But the issue is that the government's spending of P10 million is not enough to distribute the book.
01:58That is an improper request.
02:01If you have written a book, government funds and taxpayer's money should not be used to distribute it.
02:10Is it a textbook? Is it approved by DepEd?
02:13If we talk about the textbook problem of DepEd in the last two years, there are a lot of problems, right?
02:20It is not a barrier.
02:21And P10 million came from the taxpayers.
02:24It is still money held by the government that should be asked by the Congress.
02:29So instead of using it to distribute the book, Tiveros will transfer the funds to other programs.
02:35The Office of the Vice President also lowered the funds to programs run by other agencies,
02:42such as medical or burial assistance.
02:45They will just put a provision that the OVP can request funds from them.
02:49The Senate will vote on this at the right time.
02:52This is not the first time I raised this issue.
02:55I also raised it before in the NTFL cap.
02:59Why not just put it in the departments?
03:03I can't remember if I did.
03:05And even if I did, she said she didn't help me.
03:09But it's important to me because my memory is visual.
03:12I remember thanking her for supporting our two agricultural advocacies.
03:19I went to see her because it was a courtesy call to the local chief executive.
03:25I am a person who knows how to look at the debt inside.
03:28But if an administration comes to a decision or a decision of the people, that's a different story.
03:36The Senate Finance Committee said that their job is to fill the budget.
03:40And Tiveros answered those questions.
03:43According to the Senate President,
03:45I think Senator Riza had valid questions.
03:49which I would advise heads of agencies to be patient with and answer
03:54because these are all connected with the function of Congress.
