00:00The AFP chiefs reacted to the soldiers not being able to intervene in politics
00:04amidst the fierce protests of the leaders of our country.
00:10Witness, Simab Gonzales.
00:15In the midst of the rising tensions in the country's politics,
00:18the AFP leaders responded with calls for them to intervene.
00:23There is a call for the armed forces of the Philippines to intervene
00:30in what is happening in our politics here in our country.
00:36But we will not work on that.
00:40The past military adventurism is no longer possible.
00:49That is why we will not take the law into our own hands.
00:55We will remain professional.
00:57The AFP recognizes the right of anyone to have an opinion on politics.
01:01But this cannot be allowed,
01:03even when the government is complaining against the soldiers in the service.
01:07I reminded them of the vow that we took.
01:12If we will do what the other armed forces of the Philippines want,
01:20our country will be pitiful.
01:22What will be happy about this is the other countries that want to join or control us.
01:30The AFP also assured that no one is interfering in their affairs.
01:34Only one question Mr. Chair.
01:36General Daringda,
01:38Is there any grumbling in the military because of the recent events?
01:43100% none, sir.
01:45Very good.
01:46You have to be loyal to the constitution, correct?
01:49Yes, sir.
01:50Vice President Sara Duterte recently mentioned the death of former Senator Ninoy Aquino.
01:57The entire country was shocked when their family killed Binigno Aquino Jr.
02:02Ninoy's grandson responded.
02:05I hope you will stop this for the country.
02:08Don't be confused because the Filipinos are suffering.
02:11He also said,
02:12I think that the Dutertes and the Marcos are two heads of the same animal.
02:22I read that they are two people who are making the country suffer.
02:29They killed many people during the time of Marcos Sr. and Duterte.
02:33VP Sara was asked about this.
02:35Let's not comment on the grandchildren.
02:38Because it is natural for the children and grandchildren to have affinity with their parents and grandparents.
02:51So let's not answer that.
02:55The Archbishop of Manila,
02:57The Archbishop of Manila called for prayers so that the country will be united and will not be divided
03:02in issues of politics and personal interests.
03:05He said that the leaders should listen to each other
03:08and move together for the good of the country.
03:11The noise in politics will not affect the economy and the development of the country,
03:17according to the finance department.
03:18Especially according to a credit rating agency,
03:21the outlook for the Philippines is positive.
03:24For example, when you apply for a credit card or a loan,
03:29you look at your credit.
03:30Actually, we have more confidence in credit rating agencies.
03:34We will be able to borrow at lower interest rates.
03:38We can show to the investors that our country's development is reliable.
03:43The reason why we have a positive outlook from S&P
03:49is because we have a track record of doing this.
03:52Whatever the political noise.
03:54For GMA Integrated News,
03:56I'm Mav Gonzalez, your witness.
