00:00I think it's just, it's unfortunate, although we respect siguro the decision of the OVP,

00:05if tama yung opinion nila, I think the opinion was that they would rather just submit the subpoena

00:11because based on her lawyer's advice, sorry not subpoena, based on the lawyer's advice,

00:16they can just file a counter affidavit. However, kami were of the position that the vice president

00:20should take every avenue to clear their name, to clear the office's name, clear her name,

00:25and that in fact, to the extent that under Chairman Joel, we suspended one of our good

00:38we're here for her to be able to, we wanted to afford her the opportunity to answer the

00:43allegations even from other government bodies. But given that indeed she's not doing, it's

00:47unfortunate and we repeat our, yung panawagan po namin, that we hope that she participates

00:52not only with the NBI, with all, I understand marami na pong mga nasampang kaso. I hope she

00:57participates with all the agencies as far as the rule of law is concerned.
