00:00We still have a few hours. Marcello has been in South Korea for a long time due to the situation of the Filipinos there.
00:06We will now welcome Philippine Ambassador to the Republic of Korea, Maria Teresa Dizon de Vega. Ambassador, good morning.
00:15Good morning to you, sir Egan, and to all the listeners of your program.
00:20How is the situation in South Korea?
00:25As of now, because earlier at 4.30am, it was announced that Marcello has left.
00:34As of now, it is normal for people to go to the streets.
00:42Schools are open. We are also in the embassy. We have regular operations.
00:48And so are the other embassies here.
00:51So the chaos that we saw earlier, it's gone now, Ambassador?
00:57It's gone. What happened in their national assembly last night and early in the morning,
01:03the soldiers there, the members of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Korea, were withdrawn.
01:11Were you surprised by this development in your embassy?
01:15Did you follow that President Zun is expected to declare an emergency martial law?
01:24This is what happened last night.
01:28The public and other residents of Korea were surprised.
01:35Although in the past few weeks,
01:38in any country, there are inaction from the government and politicians.
01:47How are our countrymen in the emergency martial law? What is their reaction?
01:55Last night, we issued a notice that all Filipinos should remain calm here,
02:02including the tourists who visit.
02:05They should follow the advisories of the South Korean government and follow this.
02:13We also have an advisory to continue our service.
02:19As of now, we have not received critical queries.
02:28We only receive questions like can I travel, can my friends and family visit.
02:38We have received such questions from our countrymen since last night.
02:46Now, the South Korean government has given priority to the embassy.
02:49What will happen next?
02:52We are in touch with the so-called directorate in charge in the Philippines, in the ASEAN countries.
03:00We are on standby if there will be any government abuse.
03:06But as of now, the latest development is that the martial law has been lifted.
03:11Thank you very much Philippine Ambassador to the Republic of Korea, Maria Teresa Di Zondevega.
03:16Be careful Ambassador.
03:18Thank you very much also sir Igan. Good day to all of you.
