00:36the operation and budget of the LGU

00:38goes through the consideration

00:40of their council.

00:42That is the process

00:44That is the process

00:46because we are a part

00:48of a democratic republic.

00:50of a democratic republic.

00:52We are not a monarchy,

00:54communist regime

00:56or dictatorship.

00:58The Philippines

01:00is a democratic republic.

01:02is a democratic republic.

01:04When it comes to elections,

01:06we do not have a king

01:08or queen

01:10or empress

01:12in power.

01:14Our democratic republic

01:16has a congress,

01:18judiciary

01:20and executive.

01:22Three branches of government

01:24that are equal

01:26and balance

01:28each other.

01:30Our duty here in the congress

01:32is to vote

01:34on the executive budget

01:36and the spending

01:38of the previous

01:40trusted funds of the country.

01:44The Vice President's Office

01:46does not have money

01:48for the 2022-2023

01:50for the 2022-2023

01:52for the 2022-2023

01:54for the 2024-2025

01:56for the 2024-2025

01:58funds of the country.

02:00That is why there are budget hearings

02:02so that the people

02:04can know how

02:06the offices of the government

02:08spend the funds of the country

02:10that is trusted by them.

02:12But

02:14last week,

02:18the Vice President

02:20said his

02:22inappropriate speech

02:24and disrespect

02:26to our legal

02:28and democratic

02:30republic.

02:32Here in the Congress,

02:34we do not treat

02:36the judiciary

02:38as the judiciary.

02:40That is a wrong speech.

02:44In Manila and here in the Congress,

02:46we will monitor

02:48the budget hearings

02:50of the office of the Vice President.

02:52That is a wrong speech.

02:54That is a wrong speech.

02:56That is a wrong speech.

02:58That is a wrong speech.

03:00That is a wrong speech.

03:02That is a wrong speech.

03:06That is a wrong speech.

03:08That is a wrong speech.

03:10That is a wrong speech.

03:12That is a wrong speech.

03:14That is a wrong speech.

03:16That is a wrong speech.

03:18That is a wrong speech.

03:20That is a wrong speech.

03:22That is a wrong speech.

03:24That is a wrong speech.

04:32That is a wrong speech.

04:34That is a wrong speech.

04:36That is a wrong speech.

04:38That is a wrong speech.

04:40The second president also wasted

04:42the opportunity given to the Congress

04:44and the people

04:46and whoever

04:48partnered with the Office of the Vice President.

04:50In their

04:522025 budget proposal,

04:54there are 977,615 beneficiaries.

05:00Where are they?

05:02Is this all true?

05:04And is it verified?

05:06The OVP said

05:08in their budget proposal

05:10that they also have 793

05:12strategic partnership

05:14in 2023.

05:16Where is the list

05:18of strategic partnership

05:20and strategic partnership

05:22agreements?

05:24And if there is no real list

05:26of beneficiaries and real documents

05:28of strategic partnership,

05:30it is unlikely

05:32that the people of the country

05:34will lose their national funds.

05:36This is likely to happen

05:38in the future.

05:40Instead of answering

05:42the questions of the Congress,

05:44he only repeated

05:46his answer.

05:48And as a conclusion,

05:50I would like to introduce

05:52to the voters in Manila

05:54and the whole country

05:56who are not worthy of us,

05:58especially since he is

06:00ambitious to be president,

06:02who does not want to say

06:04where did the country spend

06:06its national funds?

06:08Who is really serving him?

06:10Maybe his boss

06:12is blocking the boats

06:14of the Filipino fishermen

06:16or the promoters

06:18of POGO.

06:22Is that the will

06:24of our

06:26vice president

06:28and he is ambitious

06:30to be president?

06:32Serve better.
