00:00This is good news, it should be included in the good news.
00:07Because of the leadership, let us remember that this is under the leadership of Deputy Secretary Sunny Angara,
00:14the GOES students were well investigated, the voucher program anomalies,
00:22and this will result in 65 million that we will be able to recover.
00:29Let us remember that these GOES students started in 2021-2022 and 2022-2023,
00:38this is the time of former President Duterte and the time of Deputy Secretary VP Sara.
00:49So with this result, we can now say that DepEd will not be put to dumpster.
01:01The DOH will not go to the dumpster because something is being done.
01:06If it is possible that it is not yet the leader, it may not be investigated yet.
01:13And we will not be able to recover the 65 million pesos of funds from the GOES students.
01:21Jessica, just a follow-up.
01:23Has the issue been investigated about this? And if there is, how many have been investigated?
01:30As of now, what is in the news and what Secretary Angara said is that they just gave an ultimatum,
01:38they gave a demand letter to the schools involved regarding the GOES students.
01:45And based on their investigation, we will be able to recover.
01:50But regarding the criminal actions, we will ask again what is the plan of DepEd Secretary Angara regarding that.
