00:00We will get more details on the incident of the ambush in Sulu from Atty. John Rex Laudianco, spokesperson of the Commission on Elections.

00:09Good evening Atty. Laudianco, this is Patrick Dezos of PTV Ulat Bayan Weekend.

00:16Good evening Sir Patrick and to all the viewers of Ulat Bayan Weekend on PTV4. Good evening.

00:22Yes Sir, do we have an update on the incident of the ambush of Atty. Vidspar?

00:27And do we have further information if there was a previous threat to his life?

00:33Atty. Vidspar did not mention to us that there was a previous threat to his life.

00:38But we know how dangerous the work of a Provincial Election Supervisor,

00:44as well as the Election Officer of the ComElect here in the station.

00:48Especially now that he is in Sulu.

00:51According to the latest report, his brother, who was injured,

00:57was brought back to life in this incident due to his bad luck.

01:02Even though Atty. Julie was saved, this is really saddening because his brother was injured.

01:09This is really saddening Atty. Laudianco.

01:11Can we say that this has a connection to the upcoming election?

01:17Even though we are waiting for the formal report of the Philippine National Police

01:23and the National Bureau of Investigation,

01:25this is not far because of this job and besides,

01:29this is an attack on an election field official of the Commission on Elections.

01:34We know that our work on the election is under pressure.

01:40That's why the entire ComElect is condemning the assassination of Chairman Garcia,

01:45the assassination that was carried out.

01:47Chairman Garcia said that if they think that the ComElect will be suspended,

01:52if they think that the ComElect will be suspended due to our mandate,

01:55due to the threat and the assassination,

01:59they are wrong.

02:01The ComElect will not stop in its efforts to help other agencies of the government

02:07to prosecute, imprison, and bring them to justice.

02:14Atty. Laudianco, do we have a threat to the security of Mindanao that has a connection to the election?

02:20And what is the election hotspot here?

02:26We have a lot of election hotspots in the entire Philippines.

02:30We can say that historically,

02:32the areas of concern that we call now are the most in the group of Mindanao Islands.

02:39As of now, we have not received a formal response because the election period has not started yet.

02:45But as we said, not because the election period will start on January 12,

02:50our work on the ComElect and PNP-PAP will not stop.

02:55Our coordination with the two agencies mentioned continues.

02:59Our committee on the Ban on Firearms and Security Concerns is holding a meeting

03:03When the election period comes, we are ready to classify our various towns and villages.

03:09We will put in the area of concern what needs to be put.

03:12And if ever, we will look at our preparation for security.

03:17Yes, Atty. Laudianco, you already mentioned your coordination or the coordination of ComElect with PNP and AFP.

03:24So as of now, are there other agreements with the authorities

03:27regarding the implementation of security in Mindanao during the election?

03:32That's right. Just like what happened yesterday,

03:36we have reached an agreement again through the Memorandum of Agreement with the National Bureau of Investigation.

03:42We are focusing not only on security, but also on what we expect that election offense can do,

03:49such as vote buying, vote selling, spreading fake news, other cybercrimes,

03:55as well as the use of deepfakes and spreading false information in the election.

04:00Those are just a few of the things that ComElect is focusing on.

04:03And this is what we are aiming for, our agreement.

04:06And it is also based on what we are doing.

04:08We are not just limiting it to AFP, PNP and NBI, but also the Philippine Coast Guard

04:13and also the various agencies when the election comes.

04:16Deputized by ComElect,

04:18you can expect that we will focus on security at the same time

04:22and on the implementation of our election laws.

04:26Atty. Laudjanco, ComElect has just sent a message to our countrymen in Sulu and other parts of Mindanao.

04:34To our countrymen in Sulu and other parts of Mindanao,

04:38even though ComElect is facing a tragedy,

04:42you can expect that whatever challenges ComElect will face,

04:46we will not give up and we will not stop doing our mandate

04:51to bring you a good and clean election.

04:54We are also asking for your help.

04:56If you have any information about the incident that we mentioned and discussed with Sir Patrick,

05:03and if you have any other information about what may affect our election,

05:11do not hesitate to contact us.

05:14ComElect's channels are open.

05:16We will make sure that you are safe and your identity is protected.

05:20We will just do our best to bring you a good election.

05:25We will continue to prepare.

05:27Join us and above all,

05:30let us be responsible, honest, and above all,

05:34let us vote correctly in the upcoming election.

05:37Thank you very much.

05:38Just like what Atty. Laudjanco said,

05:41to our countrymen who have information about the incident,

05:44please inform ComElect and the authorities.

05:47Thank you very much Atty. John Rex Laudjanco,

05:50the Speaker of the Commission on Elections.
