Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you, Committee Secretary.

26
00:04:56,260 --> 00:04:57,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Magandang umaga po sa ating lahat.

27
00:04:58,180 --> 00:05:07,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: As we begin our deliberations on the proposed budget or budgets of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board,

28
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:14,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: the Optical Media Board, the Film Development Council of the Philippines, and the Philippine Racing Commission,

29
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:21,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I'd like to emphasize that these agencies may appear to operate in very different fields,

30
00:05:21,580 --> 00:05:27,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: but they share one important responsibility, protecting the public,

31
00:05:28,180 --> 00:05:34,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: interests while supporting industries that contribute to our economy, culture, and livelihood of our people.

32
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ang budget po ng pamahalaan ay pera po ng taong bayan.

33
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:39,800
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We all know that.

34
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya sa bawat pisong ilalaan natin sa mga ahensya ninyo,

35
00:05:44,020 --> 00:05:51,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: dapat malinaw kung saan ito gagamitin, ano ang kongkretong resulta, at paano makikinabang ang ating mga kababayan.

36
00:05:52,260 --> 00:05:56,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Let's tackle, first, the budget of the MTRCB.

37
00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:57,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For MTRCB, we have...

38
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:05,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For MTRCB, the agency was given under 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 75.29 million pesos.

39
00:06:06,780 --> 00:06:14,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 49.99 million.

40
00:06:15,260 --> 00:06:22,620
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Today, Filipinos are consuming content not only through traditional television and cinema,

41
00:06:22,620 --> 00:06:26,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: but also through streaming platforms and various digital channels.

42
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:33,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Our children, in particular, have unprecedented access to content.

43
00:06:33,540 --> 00:06:38,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We, therefore, need to ask whether a regulatory framework is keeping pace with these changes.

44
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:02,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Second, the Optical Media Board.

45
00:07:03,660 --> 00:07:11,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For OMB, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 47.03 million.

46
00:07:11,020 --> 00:07:18,740
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 53.462 million.

47
00:07:19,460 --> 00:07:23,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The media landscape has dramatically changed.

48
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: CDs and DVDs...

49
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:36,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We have moved into a digital environment where content can be copied, downloaded, distributed, streamed, and reproduced almost instantly.

50
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,740
Senator Erwin Tulfo: This raises an important question.

51
00:07:38,740 --> 00:07:46,300
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Is the Optical Media Board still operating with the mandate and systems appropriate for today's digital economy?

52
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We need to make sure that public funds are being used efficiently,

53
00:07:51,020 --> 00:07:57,080
Senator Erwin Tulfo: that the agency is responding to actual threats to intellectual property and legitimate businesses.

54
00:07:57,660 --> 00:08:01,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Third, the Film Development Council of the Philippines.

55
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:11,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For FDCP, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 367.35 million pesos.

56
00:08:12,660 --> 00:08:19,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 311.74.

57
00:08:20,140 --> 00:08:23,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The Philippine film industry is not merely an entertainment industry.

58
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: It is part of our cultural identity.

59
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:34,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: It is also a potential source of jobs, tourism, investment, and international recognition for Filipino talent.

60
00:08:35,420 --> 00:08:44,740
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We have Filipino filmmakers, actors, writers, directors, animators, cinematographers, editors, production workers, and other creative professionals

61
00:08:44,740 --> 00:08:49,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: who have demonstrated that we can compete internationally.

62
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:56,620
Senator Erwin Tulfo: But government support must translate into real opportunities for Filipino workers and filmmakers.

63
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:03,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We should therefore examine how FDCP's program are benefiting independent filmmakers,

64
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:11,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: regional filmmakers, young artists, and emerging talents that only establish names in the industry.

65
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Finally, the Philippine Racing Commission or FILRACOM.

66
00:09:16,700 --> 00:09:21,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For FILRACOM, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act,

67
00:09:21,580 --> 00:09:26,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: a total budget of 199.76 million pesos.

68
00:09:26,620 --> 00:09:34,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 202.85 million pesos.

69
00:09:34,540 --> 00:09:38,440
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The horse racing industry is not simply about betting or entertainment.

70
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:47,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: It involves breeders, trainers, jockeys, veterinarians, farm workers, racetrack employees,

71
00:09:47,620 --> 00:09:51,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and thousands of families whose livelihoods are connected to the industry.

72
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:55,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ibig sabihin po, nakapagbibigay po siya ng trabaho.

73
00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We therefore need to ensure that FILRACOM is effectively regulating the industry,

74
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:03,740
Senator Erwin Tulfo: protecting the integrity of horse racing,

75
00:10:04,260 --> 00:10:11,520
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and making sure that the government revenues generated from the sector are properly accounted for and maximized.

76
00:10:11,980 --> 00:10:18,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I would therefore like to know whether FILRACOM proposed budget is sufficient to strengthen regulation,

77
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: improving monitoring, modernize its system,

78
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:28,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and ensure transparency in the collection and utilization of racing revenues.

79
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: These four agencies operate in different sectors, but they face a common challenge.

80
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The world is changing faster than our regulatory and support systems.

81
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Horse racing is becoming more technologically driven.

82
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Media piracy is becoming increasingly digital.

83
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Television and film consumption are moving toward online platforms.

84
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:58,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And the creative economy is becoming increasingly global.

85
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:04,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Therefore, our budget deliberation should not simply ask how much money does the agency need.

86
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We should ask more important questions like,

87
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:15,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: what will the Filipino people get in return for the budget given to you?

88
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Every allocation must have a corresponding public benefit.

89
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:24,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We need stronger accountability, measurable outcomes, efficient use of resources,

90
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:32,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and programs that directly benefit Filipino workers, consumers, artists, and entrepreneurs.

91
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: At the end of the day, ang budget po ay hindi lamang numero sa papel,

92
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:41,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: buhay, trabaho at serbisyo publiko ang nakasalalay dito.

93
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:47,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya ngayong deliberasyon, I look forward to hearing from your agencies,

94
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:53,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: your respective offices, their concrete plans, their accomplishments, their challenges,

95
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:58,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and most importantly, how they intend to ensure that every peso entrusted to them

96
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: by the Filipino people will be put to good use.

97
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Maraming salamat po.

98
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:21,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay, on that note, let us proceed with the briefing proper.

99
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For the orderly procedure,

100

267

00:28:40,340 --> 00:28:42,640

303
00:29:46,260 --> 00:29:48,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

304
00:29:48,260 --> 00:29:50,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We are open to answering the questions.

305
00:29:50,260 --> 00:29:52,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Well, I have

306
00:29:52,260 --> 00:29:54,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: several questions here for you,

307
00:29:54,260 --> 00:29:56,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Chairwoman.

308
00:29:56,260 --> 00:29:58,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: First,

309
00:29:58,260 --> 00:30:03,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: on online regulation.

310
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:27,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: If Congress expands MTRCB's mandate to online platforms, kasi po ngayon parang marami na pong lumalabas pag binuksan mo ang TV, may mga Netflix, et cetera, et cetera, social media and online games, is MTRCB ready technologically, financially and organizationally to assume that responsibility?

311
00:30:27,060 --> 00:30:37,560
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: First, Mr. Chairman, I would like to emphasize that the MTRCB is not for prohibition but for regulation.

312
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:51,480
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We will accept the challenge if the legislators would include the said online services, streaming platforms,

313
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:57,040
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: the subscription video on-demand services in our jurisdiction or our provision.

314
00:30:57,060 --> 00:31:11,400
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, it would entail a lot of coordination with the said stakeholders, such as the OTTs, the over-the-top, and the online streaming services.

315
00:31:12,500 --> 00:31:19,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kasi pag minsan, late at night, when I turn my TV, when I get home, I watch some movies.

316
00:31:20,340 --> 00:31:25,620
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nakakagulat na lang, bigla na lang may kubot-kubot na babae dyan.

317
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:26,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And I didn't know that.

318
00:31:27,060 --> 00:31:32,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: A young man, my son, behind me was like looking also.

319
00:31:32,660 --> 00:31:34,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, I don't know.

320
00:31:35,020 --> 00:31:43,780
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kung nangyari nga sa akin, maybe sa ibang mga household na wala naman kasing restriction when you turn on dahil subscription po yun.

321
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, yun po yung tinatanong natin, can we do something about it?

322
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:53,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I mean, kaya nga, if we're given by Congress an expanded mandate, can you do it?

323
00:31:54,340 --> 00:31:55,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And when can you do that?

324
00:31:57,060 --> 00:32:04,340
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Mr. Chairman, if I may, it would be, yes, it would be feasible.

325
00:32:04,700 --> 00:32:06,660
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Yes, the MTRCB can do it.

326
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:11,040
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: But I would like to reiterate that it is only the regulation that we can do.

327
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:20,860
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I'd like to clarify that the movies that will be exhibited in the online streaming platforms do not need to go through prior constraint,

328
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:26,140
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: which is what we are really pushing for, even in the past hearings.

329
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:27,040
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I have observed.

330
00:32:27,060 --> 00:32:32,860
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Already mentioned, with regard to the online streaming and the subscription video on-demand services,

331
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:40,980
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: what we need from them is to establish a very effective feedback mechanism

332
00:32:40,980 --> 00:32:47,060
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: where they will commit to accountability and responsiveness to the MTRCB

333
00:32:47,660 --> 00:32:55,880
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: for when complaints are raised and expressed to the said online streaming provider,

334
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:56,880
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: their share.

335
00:32:57,060 --> 00:32:59,140
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: So, there should be an answer.

336
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,280
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: There should be a commitment that they will work on these concerns

337
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,720
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and that they're very much willing to help the MTRCB.

338
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,740
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Currently, we are working with Netflix and HBO and Disney,

339
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,880
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and they've been very cooperative.

340
00:33:13,180 --> 00:33:14,400
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I'm happy to share, Mr. Chair.

341
00:33:14,820 --> 00:33:19,760
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, with the rampant problems that we are facing today,

342
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,020
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I think it is faced globally.

343
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,840
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We really need to reiterate that this regulation,

344
00:33:27,060 --> 00:33:27,780
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: as possible,

345
00:33:28,460 --> 00:33:32,800
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: but we would need their cooperation and their coordination as well.

346
00:33:33,900 --> 00:33:34,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: All right.

347
00:33:35,020 --> 00:33:36,700
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Because my concern, ma'am,

348
00:33:36,700 --> 00:33:44,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: is the growing violence in schools right now

349
00:33:44,540 --> 00:33:47,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: because kids are watching online games,

350
00:33:48,300 --> 00:33:50,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung access po nila sa mga online games.

351
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,700
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Do you have any steps to address this?

352
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:56,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya pa paano?

353
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Though you don't have these powers yet,

354
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:04,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: which are being linked to violent online games and violent content,

355
00:34:04,180 --> 00:34:05,660
Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung nangyari po sa Samwanga,

356
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:12,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I mean, isang online game po yun na nire-record pa nung bata yung shootout na yun,

357
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: may steps po ba kayo?

358
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Are you already talking about this?

359
00:34:18,740 --> 00:34:21,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: How do you, your agency, will control this?

360
00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:25,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And I don't know if OMB can also help us on this matter.

361
00:34:25,240 --> 00:34:25,340
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Sure.

362
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:27,420
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Currently, Mr. Chairman,

363
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,140
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: it is not under the purview of the MTRCB

364
00:34:30,140 --> 00:34:33,380
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: with regard to online gaming and video games

365
00:34:33,380 --> 00:34:38,860
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: as it is a totally different structure from what we are currently doing.

366
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,460
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: But we have explored

367
00:34:40,460 --> 00:34:43,800
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and we are continuing the discussions on this exploration.

368
00:34:44,380 --> 00:34:48,040
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And I would like to yield to the Executive Director of the MTRCB

369
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:53,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: for the reporting of the exploratory researches we've made.

370
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:55,560
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Thank you.

371
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:56,740
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Senator,

372
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,800
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: as regards violence in social media,

373
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:04,980
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: while it is a different area,

374
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,340
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: because MTRCB, as we are saying,

375
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,120
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: we are involved only in sa content, no?

376
00:35:12,620 --> 00:35:14,880
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: And unfortunately, online contents,

377
00:35:15,300 --> 00:35:16,420
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: hindi pa rin sa amin.

378
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,160
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: But there are studies globally

379
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,620
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: regarding this violence in media, in social media.

380
00:35:23,620 --> 00:35:25,500
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: One of them is the,

381
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:30,640
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: do not amplify regulatory principle for social media,

382
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,020
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: which means we can,

383
00:35:34,580 --> 00:35:37,520
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: as a country,

384
00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:40,420
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: can create policies that require major platform

385
00:35:40,420 --> 00:35:44,500
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: to address algorithmic amplification of violent content,

386
00:35:45,260 --> 00:35:48,720
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: recommendation of increasingly extreme material,

387
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,060
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: autoplay of violent videos,

388
00:35:51,620 --> 00:35:53,840
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: viral circulation of graphic violence,

389
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,340
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: monetization of violent content,

390
00:35:55,340 --> 00:35:59,580
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: and recommendation of violent material to minors.

391
00:36:00,580 --> 00:36:02,840
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: If there will be a law

392
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:08,240
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: na hahawakan ang iyong mga social media na ito,

393
00:36:08,240 --> 00:36:14,060
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: we can tell them na dapat hindi naka-autoplay ang mga violent content

394
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,120
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: sa mga materials natin.

395
00:36:16,460 --> 00:36:20,780
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Dapat hindi, kung pwede, hindi ma-monetize.

396
00:36:21,180 --> 00:36:23,460
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Because sa totoo lang,

397
00:36:23,460 --> 00:36:24,700
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: isa sa mga,

398
00:36:25,340 --> 00:36:27,780
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: sa mga motivation ng mga content creators,

399
00:36:27,780 --> 00:36:31,340
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: syempre, mamamonetize yung gagawin nilang content.

400
00:36:31,340 --> 00:36:35,220
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: If these videos, at yung mga violent videos,

401
00:36:35,220 --> 00:36:39,060
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: sex videos, ay made-demonetize,

402
00:36:39,060 --> 00:36:42,940
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: I think, mababawasan yung mga ganong materials.

403
00:36:42,940 --> 00:36:46,940
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: And then, yung algorithmic amplification,

404
00:36:46,940 --> 00:36:52,860
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: we can tell Meta or other social media platforms na

405
00:36:52,860 --> 00:36:55,180
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: automatic, walang algorithmic amplification,

406
00:36:55,180 --> 00:36:59,180
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: automatic walang recommendations,

407
00:36:59,180 --> 00:37:00,820
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: especially sa minors.

408
00:37:00,820 --> 00:37:03,240
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Automatic block sa minors, yung mga ganon.

409
00:37:04,020 --> 00:37:08,880
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: We can also introduce a stronger protection for minors

410
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:13,000
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: by safety by default for minors principle.

411
00:37:14,500 --> 00:37:16,620
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Yun nga po, as I said, a while ago,

412
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,860
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: violent content should not be algorithmically recommended,

413
00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,160
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: graphic content should be age-gated.

414
00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:25,020
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Autoplay.

415
00:37:25,020 --> 00:37:27,020
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: violent content should be

416
00:37:27,020 --> 00:37:29,100
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: disabled. Accounts should

417
00:37:29,100 --> 00:37:31,120
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: have stronger privacy settings.

418
00:37:31,580 --> 00:37:33,280
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Live streaming should have enhanced

419
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,020
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: safeguards. Repeated

420
00:37:35,020 --> 00:37:37,000
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: exposure to violent content should trigger

421
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,540
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: additional safeguards.

422
00:37:39,860 --> 00:37:41,220
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: There are also studies

423
00:37:41,220 --> 00:37:42,660
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: about or push for

424
00:37:42,660 --> 00:37:45,440
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: creation of violent content

425
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:46,860
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: emergency protocols

426
00:37:46,860 --> 00:37:48,340
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: in some countries.

427
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,680
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: This would be particularly

428
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,000
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: useful in the Philippines for events

429
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,200
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: such as mass shootings,

430
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,200
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: terrorist attacks, hostage situations,

431
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:58,400
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: riots, and

432
00:37:58,400 --> 00:37:58,940
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: other

433
00:37:58,940 --> 00:38:02,280
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: violent contents or

434
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,420
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: incidents. Platforms

435
00:38:04,420 --> 00:38:06,200
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: should have emergency escalation mechanisms

436
00:38:06,720 --> 00:38:08,060
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: with government

437
00:38:08,060 --> 00:38:08,960
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: authorities.

438
00:38:11,460 --> 00:38:13,940
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: We should treat live streaming

439
00:38:13,940 --> 00:38:16,120
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: differently from ordinary posts

440
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:17,660
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: because

441
00:38:17,660 --> 00:38:20,160
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: the harm happens before

442
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:21,440
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: traditional moderation

443
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,220
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: can respond.

444
00:38:23,700 --> 00:38:24,180
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Pwede mangyari.

445
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,100
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: May mangyaring hindi maganda kaya

446
00:38:26,100 --> 00:38:28,080
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: we should treat live streaming

447
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,820
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: differently from regular

448
00:38:29,820 --> 00:38:31,400
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: video posting.

449
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:34,120
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Again,

450
00:38:34,860 --> 00:38:36,740
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: yung pong established

451
00:38:36,740 --> 00:38:38,680
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: platform accountability

452
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,280
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: kailangan po natin

453
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,040
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: i-implement

454
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:44,780
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: or pwedeng gawing policy.

455
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So this is your study.

456
00:38:46,940 --> 00:38:48,080
MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre: Understudy po ito.

457
00:38:48,500 --> 00:38:50,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Unless you will be given

458
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: by Congress, by

459
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Congress and the Senate,

460
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: to expand your powers

461
00:38:56,380 --> 00:38:57,700
Senator Erwin Tulfo: to look into

462
00:38:57,700 --> 00:39:00,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: online platforms,

463
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:01,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: social media, and online games.

464
00:39:02,260 --> 00:39:03,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: For now, wala ako kayo magagawa.

465
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:05,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yes. Alright. Thank you.

466
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Moving forward, Chairperson.

467
00:39:08,860 --> 00:39:09,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ano po ang

468
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:16,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ginagawa ng MTRCB right now

469
00:39:16,380 --> 00:39:18,300
Senator Erwin Tulfo: dito po sa exhibition ng materials

470
00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:20,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ng mga unregistered

471
00:39:20,340 --> 00:39:21,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: entities considering

472
00:39:21,820 --> 00:39:22,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: the issue.

473
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:22,920
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So,

474
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: you look through logik

475
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ng mga

476
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:28,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: unregistered entities

477
00:39:28,940 --> 00:39:30,160
Senator Erwin Tulfo: accepting movies

478
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:30,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: without

479
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:30,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: a

480
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:31,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: limit.

481
00:39:35,060 --> 00:39:35,840
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The

482
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,800
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Committee of the

483
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:39,820
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: MTRCB

484
00:39:39,820 --> 00:39:41,400
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: right now.

485
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,320
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And the Chairperson of the

486
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,200
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Committee is with me now.

487
00:39:46,420 --> 00:39:48,100
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, I'd like to answer the question

488
00:39:48,100 --> 00:39:48,580
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: first.

489
00:39:49,820 --> 00:39:51,980
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The MTRCB has its own monitoring

490
00:39:51,980 --> 00:39:54,180
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: inspection unit along with our

491
00:39:54,180 --> 00:39:58,320
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: deputies and the board members who go around the different cinemas and we do our monitoring

492
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:06,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: inspection consistently. That helps us identify the violations or the violators,

493
00:40:06,660 --> 00:40:13,340
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: especially in the cinemas. But we also do our own inspections around the country wherein we go

494
00:40:13,340 --> 00:40:18,620
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: to the different communities and identify the unregistered cable companies as well.

495
00:40:18,620 --> 00:40:26,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Sa non-display or innocent display permit to exhibit,

496
00:40:27,620 --> 00:40:31,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: what are the common violations encountered during monitoring and inspections?

497
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:41,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Unregistered cable companies, Mr. Chair, fake, tampered permits to exhibit.

498
00:40:41,260 --> 00:40:48,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Isa pa ho yung medyo kontrobersyal na nai-palabas na po sa online. Ito pong

499
00:40:48,060 --> 00:40:54,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lost Sabungeros. Does the MTRCB have the authority to refuse to review a film because

500
00:40:54,360 --> 00:41:01,080
Senator Erwin Tulfo: its subject matter is allegedly subjudice? Or is the board's mandate precisely to review the material,

501
00:41:01,900 --> 00:41:06,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: determine whether it violates the law, and then give it to the appropriate classification?

502
00:41:06,720 --> 00:41:13,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Because if you refuse to review the film in the first place, aren't you preventing the producer

503
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,760
Senator Erwin Tulfo: from exercising the very appeal process?

504
00:41:18,060 --> 00:41:20,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, what are the policies that the MTRCB supposed to provide?

505
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:31,360
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Mr. Chairman, first of all, yes we are in the process of reviewing our reassessing our processes.

506
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:36,480
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, I just want to clear this up. That regarding the Lost Sabungeros movie,

507
00:41:37,820 --> 00:41:45,020
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: the board consistently reviews each and every material that is submitted to us carefully.

508
00:41:45,900 --> 00:41:47,780
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And it would not be detrimental to...

509
00:41:48,060 --> 00:41:56,260
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: nor a disservice to the Filipino viewers to ask for additional requirements consistent with our subjudice rule

510
00:41:56,260 --> 00:42:06,280
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: because this is only an exercise of prudence for an administrative agency that is a regulatory body as well.

511
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Dito naman po tayo moving sa live television shows.

512
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:16,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Following the recent It's Showtime controversy yung memory mar segment,

513
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:28,440
Senator Erwin Tulfo: what concrete measures po is MTRCB implementing to prevent violations during live broadcast para hindi na po maulit din ito sa ibang mga program

514
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,920
Senator Erwin Tulfo: rather than simply penalizing programs after the fact?

515
00:42:32,740 --> 00:42:41,600
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: With regard to Showtime and this question, Mr. Chairman, I would yield to the Chairman of the Committee on Adjudication, Attorney Jojo Salomon.

516
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,840
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: Good morning, Senator.

517
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,340
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: As regards to the memory mar segment,

518
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:52,840
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: we called the production for an adjugatory hearing.

519
00:42:53,500 --> 00:42:58,760
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: And in that hearing, we discussed how they can prevent this from happening again.

520
00:42:58,980 --> 00:43:08,460
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: And in so doing, we required them to assign a compliance officer who would monitor their program as it airs.

521
00:43:08,460 --> 00:43:15,480
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: So this compliance officer will be the one responsible to the MTRCB.

522
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,380
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: In case of live violations.

523
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,480
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: And also, we required them to undergo a compliance seminar,

524
00:43:24,100 --> 00:43:30,020
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: which we do to all violators of MTRCB rules.

525
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:37,740
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: We conduct compliance seminars and we teach them how to avoid violating the rules of the MTRCB.

526
00:43:37,740 --> 00:43:44,600
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: And we inculcate in their minds that the importance of following the rules is not really to avoid penalties,

527
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:45,740
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: but to ensure that we...

528
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,200
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: protect viewers from

529
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:49,340
MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: inappropriate materials.

530
00:43:50,300 --> 00:43:52,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: If I may recall, when I was

531
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: still on TV, when we had

532
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: a program before,

533
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:58,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: may plan ng

534
00:43:58,240 --> 00:44:00,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: MTRCB, I know it's not during

535
00:44:00,340 --> 00:44:02,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: your watch yet, na parang

536
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,220
Senator Erwin Tulfo: pag mga live programs,

537
00:44:04,340 --> 00:44:06,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: gagawing Tape Us Live para yung

538
00:44:06,140 --> 00:44:08,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: first segment, mapanood na

539
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:09,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ng mga

540
00:44:09,340 --> 00:44:11,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: sensors natin.

541
00:44:12,220 --> 00:44:14,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Makita na maiwasan kung nagmura,

542
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,700
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kung ano, parang

543
00:44:15,700 --> 00:44:18,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Tape Us Live. Natuloy ba? Whatever happened to that?

544
00:44:18,140 --> 00:44:20,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: There was a plan. I think several years

545
00:44:20,260 --> 00:44:22,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ago na, okay, entire

546
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:23,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: program, one-hour program,

547
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: 15-minute segment, unahin na

548
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Tape Us Live para mapanood

549
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,840
Senator Erwin Tulfo: din ang MTRCB and then go. I think

550
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,160
Senator Erwin Tulfo: nagawa din dati yun. Pero whatever happened

551
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,300
Senator Erwin Tulfo: to that? Mr. Chairman,

552
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,140
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: that's something that I did not

553
00:44:36,140 --> 00:44:38,280
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: encounter during my term

554
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,500
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: in the MTRCB.

555
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:42,220
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, these

556
00:44:42,220 --> 00:44:44,520
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: are suggested

557
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:45,600
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: as well to

558
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,760
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: the live shows. But it's not up

559
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,500
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: to the MTRCB. We cannot

560
00:44:49,500 --> 00:44:50,920
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: impose on the producers

561
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,600
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and the shows on the

562
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,600
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: type of permit that they want, whether it be

563
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,600
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: taped or lived or Tape Us Live.

564
00:44:57,700 --> 00:44:58,620
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: It would be on them.

565
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:19,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Do you have control o meron po ba kayong policy na for example, bisita, guest or viewer doon sa studio, nakita ng host, lalaitin, pangit, bungi, duling, etc., pagtatawanan pero bibigyan ng premyo? Is that proper?

566
00:45:19,820 --> 00:45:35,800
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I mean, yung tao, siyempre, nakikisama, natutuwa din pero nagiging tuksuhan, finufocus, pilay, bulag, duling, bingi, itim, etc., etc. Parang nilalait yung tao. What is your take on that?

567
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:49,100
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The MTRCB disapproves of such behavior and they are consistently reminded. We have compliance seminars for the shows and the hosts as well.

568
00:45:49,100 --> 00:46:10,940
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Taken care of by their own production, their respective productions, Mr. Chairman. However, it is already in the process with the MTRCB that they have their own continuing workshops with, no, we have our continuing workshops with them so that they are reminded.

569
00:46:10,940 --> 00:46:18,940
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Because we also cannot take it away from them, in fairness to the live television programs, that this is something...

570
00:46:19,100 --> 00:46:21,900
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: that they are used to because they do it every day.

571
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:38,980
Senator Erwin Tulfo: But as a chairperson, maybe it's okay with that person na tinutukso. But for others, na viewer, na baka may anak siyang gano'n, may asawa siya, may kapamilya siyang gano'n na offend.

572
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:40,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So how do you balance that?

573
00:46:40,900 --> 00:46:48,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: O, nakikisama yung audience, di ba? Kakatuwaan. But then again, pag yung nanunood sa bahay, meron siyang...

574
00:46:49,100 --> 00:46:57,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Anak na kapareho, nilalait, tinutukso, putot, itim, bungi, buduling. How is that?

575
00:46:57,460 --> 00:47:05,520
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We call their attention, Mr. Chair. And then, yes, perform the workshop, perform the compliance with them. They are reminded as well.

576
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:17,520
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And these are, I'd like to reiterate that we do not tolerate, the MTRCB does not tolerate. We are trying very hard, Mr. Chairman, to preserve our Filipino cultural family values.

577
00:47:19,100 --> 00:47:31,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I understand sa overseas, yung mga stand-up comedy, masking yung viewer, nilalait. Pero when it comes to these shows na general patronage, mga bata, nakikita, di ba?

578
00:47:31,540 --> 00:47:46,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So it's really different. Sa mga stand-up comedy shows, hindi naman po, may rating po yata. Pag may mga stand-up comedy shows tayo, may mga rating po yan. Unlike sa mga live shows na ito, wala po yata.

579
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So kaya nga yung dapat yung...

580
00:47:49,100 --> 00:47:56,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So kaya nga yung dapat yung mga host will be reminded to watch out na may mga children po nanonood during the live show.

581
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:04,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Anyway, moving forward, I have a few more questions, Chairperson Antonio.

582
00:48:06,540 --> 00:48:16,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: How much is the current balance of this sinking fund? At paano po ito nagagamit ng MTRCB kung hindi po ito tineturn over sa Treasury?

583
00:48:19,100 --> 00:48:33,900
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Currently, Mr. Chairman, I'm happy to share that we have reached 641 million in our sinking fund.

584
00:48:33,900 --> 00:48:45,580
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: This is from our own revenue, and it just stays there. This is a special fund in the general appropriations, in the general fund, in the National Treasury.

585
00:48:46,380 --> 00:48:48,220
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: To be able to access...

586
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:59,320
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: To be able to access or utilize the sinking fund for the MTRCB, to access or utilize the sinking fund, it is subject to the approval of the Department of DBM.

587
00:49:01,460 --> 00:49:13,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Isa pa po napansin ko kanina during your presentation na you said you exceeded your target revenues. What years that was? 2025 going to 2026?

588
00:49:14,980 --> 00:49:16,300
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Every year, Mr. Chairman.

589
00:49:16,300 --> 00:49:16,660
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Every year.

590
00:49:16,660 --> 00:49:17,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: You exceed our target.

591
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:18,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: You exceed.

592
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Who sets the target for revenues?

593
00:49:21,720 --> 00:49:22,700
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The DBM sets the target.

594
00:49:22,700 --> 00:49:23,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The DBM.

595
00:49:23,860 --> 00:49:26,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Well, that's very good. Very good answer.

596
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:32,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lastly po, lastly, what are the budget wish lists of the MTRCB that this committee may prioritize?

597
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:43,980
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: First of all, Mr. Chairman, I would like to request for the increase in the board compensation.

598
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:48,200
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: As you know, the board reviews hundreds.

599
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:54,680
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And thousands of materials every year on a daily basis.

600
00:49:55,880 --> 00:50:09,440
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I have consistently made both active and documented efforts, Mr. Chair, in my four years of being a chairperson of the agency, to request for the increase in their board compensation.

601
00:50:09,660 --> 00:50:18,200
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, the reason that we got from the DBM is that we would need a legal or a statutory basis.

602
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,800
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: For this to happen.

603
00:50:21,660 --> 00:50:24,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Well, we'll see about that.

604
00:50:25,700 --> 00:50:27,800
Senator Erwin Tulfo: What about the expansion of office?

605
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:32,320
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Yes, you would need an extension of the MTRCB office.

606
00:50:33,380 --> 00:50:34,900
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: My staff already in the office.

607
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:36,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lahat po ba? Sorry, Mama.

608
00:50:36,460 --> 00:50:41,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lahat po ba kayo nag-office doon sa Timog, Quezon City?

609
00:50:41,580 --> 00:50:44,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa maliit na three floors na building.

610
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,760
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: In fact, my staff are already in the hallway.

611
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:56,680
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We came up with desks, makeshift desks, outside my office in the hallway just to make everybody fit.

612
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:58,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Is that all?

613
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:02,540
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Yes, Mr. Chairman.

614
00:51:03,460 --> 00:51:13,720
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: In preparation for if ever there will be an expansion, we would need an advancement in technology or the AI equipment,

615
00:51:13,720 --> 00:51:16,740
MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: which we could further study after research.

616
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:18,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you.

617
00:51:18,820 --> 00:51:19,860

00:58:55,660 --> 00:58:57,700
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: For registration and licensing,

650
00:58:58,300 --> 00:58:59,380
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: as seen in the graph,

653
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:16,480

654

668
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:56,040
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: If you note by the chart, on January, there was still no inspection conducted since there was still a question as to my powers then

669
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:59,400
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: because I'm just the officer in charge of the Optical Media Board.

670
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:09,160
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: When we received clarification from Malaw Kanyang of our powers, we have conducted inspections from February up to December.

678
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,640
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Okay, next slide please.

683
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:43,360
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: And we have not implemented basically disposal because we don't have an executive director in the office and the powers of the government are limited.

684

695
01:05:04,260 --> 01:05:05,340
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Last slide po.

696
01:05:05,420 --> 01:05:25,400
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: On the agency's winding down plan, from February up to June of 2026 review, it was stated that the agency's, the CMPT of the agency proposed for the abolition of the office.

697
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:34,500
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Because we know or recognize that we cannot, we are limited in our powers to curb physical...

698
01:05:34,500 --> 01:05:49,360
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: ...digital piracy under our current laws, kasi po, ang alam po ninyo, aside that the Optical Media Board, which our predecessor was the VRB, dati po, if everybody knows, si dati po, bete maksasaka VHS po.

699
01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,700
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Tapos nung nagkaroon ng mga CDs, inamend po ng law, naging OMB.

01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:54,700
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Now, as we all know, this is a digital format, that's why we recognize that we are severely restricted in our...

701
01:05:54,700 --> 01:06:03,580
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: ...digital piracy under our current laws, kasi po, alam po ninyo, aside that the Optical Media Board, which our predecessor was the VRB, dati po, if everybody knows, si dati po, bete maksasaka VHS po.

702
01:06:03,580 --> 01:06:08,260
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Now, as we all know, this is a digital format, that's why we recognize that we are severely restricted in our law, nakakahinder po sa performance namin yung batas namin po.

703
01:06:10,060 --> 01:06:23,420
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: So, for that, for our personnel, we have a permanent staff physician, because out of the 93 positions, we have 45 warm bodies in our office.

704
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:29,980
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: And we have also around 10 job orders to assist us in our daily-to-day functions.

705
01:06:31,460 --> 01:06:33,560
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Right now, we are...

708
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:47,280
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Yes, sir.

709
01:06:47,740 --> 01:06:57,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Didn't you inform the DBM na you guys are winding down na the budget given to you last year is supposed to last for three months?

710
01:06:57,740 --> 01:07:02,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi po ba, when they asked you for your ikang budget proposal, didn't you tell them that,

711
01:07:03,580 --> 01:07:11,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Secretary, DBM, we're supposed to wind down this year, thereby, we should not be submitting any more budget?

712
01:07:11,500 --> 01:07:23,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Because what we're doing here, and you already know pala, na magkakaroon po kayo ng your employees will be transferred either to the FDCP or IPO.

713
01:07:24,060 --> 01:07:29,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Bakit po kayo nag-submit? Didn't you inform the DBM na we're winding down, Secretary?

714
01:07:29,580 --> 01:07:32,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kasi kahit to kami, we're waiting for the reply.

715
01:07:32,540 --> 01:07:32,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay.

716
01:07:33,580 --> 01:07:41,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, I don't know kung alam ba ng DBM, were they informed, pero the mere fact that you submitted the budget proposal for 2027,

717
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:52,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: baka hindi ho ninyo na-informed sila, pero we informed you, the Senate informed you last year, that the funds given to you for this year is for winding down.

718
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:54,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ano nangyari, sir?

719
01:07:56,500 --> 01:08:00,720
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Chairman, we have informed po yung DBM po, yung winding down po.

720
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:03,200
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Actually, we have submitted our position paper po.

721
01:08:03,580 --> 01:08:11,720
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: To them nung August 7, and we have been very transparent po dun sa aming coordination with them, sir.

722
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:13,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I'm not blaming you.

723
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:23,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I was just wondering what was the reaction or the reason given by DBM na nabinigyan pa po kayo ng budget for next year.

724
01:08:24,620 --> 01:08:26,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I know it is not your fault.

725
01:08:27,380 --> 01:08:28,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yun nga lang po.

726
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:31,660
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, I was kind of wondering kung nasabihan nyo ba sila na,

727
01:08:32,460 --> 01:08:33,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Mr. DBM,

728
01:08:33,580 --> 01:08:46,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Secretary, kami po ay, this is supposed to be our last year, dahil kami po ay i-absorb ng either ng FDCP, yung aming personnel, or IPO.

729
01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:48,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Did you inform them about that?

730
01:08:50,380 --> 01:08:52,220
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yes, sir. We have informed them.

731
01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:58,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Do we have the resource person from the Department of Budget and Management?

732
01:08:58,620 --> 01:08:59,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: There you go.

733
01:08:59,460 --> 01:09:02,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Director May Pina, what is going on in here?

734
01:09:03,580 --> 01:09:13,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Last year, Senate President, well, hindi pa siya Senate President, Finance Chair po po si Senate President Wingachelyan,

735
01:09:14,380 --> 01:09:24,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: who defended their budget last year, and specifically, sinasabi niya na ito pong budget for last year na ibinigay sa OMB,

736
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:27,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: and he was the one who defended it, is for winding down.

737
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Why did you guys give budget to OMB?

738
01:09:30,500 --> 01:09:33,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Eh, alam po ninyo na they're winding down.

739
01:09:33,580 --> 01:09:37,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I-absorb po sila ng, kung hindi ng FDCP, ang IPO po.

740
01:09:37,660 --> 01:09:38,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Why is that?

741
01:09:39,860 --> 01:09:40,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Weren't you informed?

742
01:09:41,940 --> 01:09:43,720
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: Good morning po, Mr. Chair.

743
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,220
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: The DBM is informed po.

744
01:09:46,480 --> 01:09:54,560
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: Actually, it's in the special provision po of the OMB sa JA po natin, 2026.

745
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:58,520
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: But it was mentioned po kasi in the special provision that,

746
01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:00,860
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: that,

747
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,560
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: the OMB will still be,

748
01:10:03,580 --> 01:10:06,480
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: subject to the GOP po,

749
01:10:06,480 --> 01:10:08,760
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: the Government Optimization Plan po,

750
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:11,460
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: optimization program po of the government po that time.

751
01:10:11,460 --> 01:10:15,020
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: So, while waiting for the results of the GOP po,

752
01:10:15,020 --> 01:10:18,700
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: we provided the Tier 1 po for the OMB,

753
01:10:18,700 --> 01:10:25,280
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: just in case po, hindi po kasi matuloy siya or maresolved po within the year for 2027,

754
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:30,960
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: meron pong magagamit ang OMB, specifically, lalo na po sa personnel services po nila.

755
01:10:31,700 --> 01:10:33,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: My next question is, bakit tumaas pa po?

756
01:10:33,580 --> 01:10:35,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kung winding down na po sila.

757
01:10:35,580 --> 01:10:39,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: From GAA 47, nagdagdagan, well,

758
01:10:39,580 --> 01:10:45,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: 6 million po, 2027 NEP.

759
01:10:45,580 --> 01:10:47,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: What is the reason behind?

760
01:10:47,580 --> 01:10:48,580
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: NEP level lang po.

761
01:10:48,580 --> 01:10:51,580
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: Yung nag-increase lang po sa kanila is the PS po.

762
01:10:52,580 --> 01:10:53,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Personal services?

763
01:10:53,580 --> 01:10:54,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Dagdag-dag po sila ng tao?

764
01:10:54,580 --> 01:10:57,580

01:10:57,580 --> 01:10:59,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Oh, NEP level.

766
01:11:00,580 --> 01:11:01,580
DBM OIC Director III May L. Piñga: For the PS po.

767
01:11:01,580 --> 01:11:02,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay.

768
01:11:03,580 --> 01:11:04,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: All right.

Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you.

770
01:11:05,580 --> 01:11:06,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you.

771
01:11:06,580 --> 01:11:07,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you po.

772
01:11:07,580 --> 01:11:08,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Director.

773
01:11:10,580 --> 01:11:14,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Done with your presentation, Sir Dennis.

774
01:11:15,580 --> 01:11:20,580
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: I think our chief from the admin would like to add also a comment.

775
01:11:20,580 --> 01:11:21,580
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Go ahead po.

776
01:11:21,580 --> 01:11:22,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Good afternoon, Mr. Chair.

777
01:11:22,580 --> 01:11:29,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Before we end our presentation, Mr. Chair, beyond our day-to-day operations and budget proposals,

778
01:11:29,580 --> 01:11:30,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: we must respectfully place on record the agency's pressing operations,

779
01:11:31,580 --> 01:11:38,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: and administrative concerns regarding the special provisions mentioned earlier on the winding down of the optical

780
01:11:38,580 --> 01:11:43,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: media board under the FY 2026.

781
01:11:43,580 --> 01:11:47,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: While the FOA 2026 appropriate at 47 million earmark exclusively for winding down operations,

782
01:11:47,580 --> 01:11:56,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: This provision has placed the agency in extraordinary operational and legal Limbo.

783
01:11:56,580 --> 01:11:59,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: While the special provisions directs the winding down of the agency,

784
01:11:59,580 --> 01:12:29,160
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: The Republic Act No. 9239 remains substantive, unrepealed law. The pending abolition measures, Senate Bills 991 and 1654, are still pending in the legislative mill. As demonstrated by our frontline data, piracy and illicit hardware importations have not disappeared. They have modernized. In 2026 alone, our team conducted over 1,850 inspections and collected nearly 30 million in revenue.

785
01:12:29,580 --> 01:12:45,060
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: As brought to light in our May and June 2026 multi-agency consultations both with DBM and CSE, full implementation of personnel placement and asset turnover is on hold, awaiting clear executive guidance.

786
01:12:45,260 --> 01:12:57,260
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Until the formal issuance of the executive order or the legislative resolution on the pending bills, the OMB must be granted adequate operational flexibility and budget headroom.

787
01:12:57,260 --> 01:12:59,260
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Mr. Chair, we earnestly manifest...

788
01:12:59,580 --> 01:13:04,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: ...critical need for a proper, dignified, and seamless transition of our personnel.

789
01:13:04,580 --> 01:13:14,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: The prolonged ambiguity surrounding our absorption and security of tenure has understandably taken a heavy toll on the morale of our employees.

790
01:13:14,580 --> 01:13:24,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: These are dedicated civil servants who continue to exceed performance targets, process thousands of licenses, despite the looming uncertainty of our livelihoods.

791
01:13:24,580 --> 01:13:26,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: We appeal to this honorable committee to support in ensuring AUM's integrity.

792
01:13:29,580 --> 01:13:36,580
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Our 2016 but concerned main transition plan safeguards our welfare and career security before budgetary or operational phaseout is finalized.

793
01:13:39,540 --> 01:13:43,540
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: Mr. Chair, thank you so much for your time, guidance and continued support of our agency.

794
01:13:43,540 --> 01:13:52,980
OMB Administrative Chief Janine Joyce G. Sison: We are now ready to answer any questions the Committee may have.

795
01:13:52,980 --> 01:13:53,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Mr. Memnun bin Loc, how many employees do you have total?

796
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:54,440
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Right now, Mr. Chair, we have 45 warm bodies in our office.

797
01:13:58,340 --> 01:13:59,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Forty-five warm bodies!

798
01:13:59,480 --> 01:14:02,100
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: Out of a plantilia of 92.

799
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:06,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So yung regular po natin is how many?

800
01:14:07,260 --> 01:14:08,260
OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac: 45, Your Honor.

801
01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:09,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: 45? Okay.

802
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:22,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: This is the reason why we're saying, Janine, Miss Janine, na the plan is not to just abolish the OMB, na yung mga tao palayasin lang natin.

803
01:14:22,480 --> 01:14:28,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: No, we're also considering the fact na these people have families too, right?

804
01:14:28,180 --> 01:14:33,760
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And that's the reason why we're saying and we have to prepare the Film Development Council of the Philippines.

805
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Either they will be, pag-uusapan nalang po ng Senate and Congress.

806
01:14:37,780 --> 01:14:40,760
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Magkaiba po kasi yung bill natin, namin, ng Congress.

807
01:14:41,220 --> 01:14:44,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa amin po, sa FDCP po kayo ilalagay.

808
01:14:44,620 --> 01:14:47,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa Congress naman, sa IPO, Intellectual Property.

809
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:55,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Tama naman po kayo habang hindi pa po na re-reconcile po yan, hindi pa po na pag-uusapan.

810
01:14:55,060 --> 01:14:57,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kasi siyempre tuloy lang po yung trabaho ninyo.

811
01:14:57,860 --> 01:15:00,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And then, of course, kailangan ninyo...

812
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:01,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: diyan din ang salary, magsasweldo,

813
01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,440
Senator Erwin Tulfo: din naman pwedeng pasok kayo ng pasok

814

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And 230 million,

1140
01:32:30,260 --> 01:32:32,720
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: 0.4 is allocated for the

01:32:32,720 --> 01:32:34,680

1142
01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:37,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the incentives that we are providing

01:32:37,320 --> 01:32:39,780
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for our filmmakers, capacity building

1144
01:32:39,780 --> 01:32:41,580
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: initiatives such as training labs,

1145
01:32:41,580 --> 01:32:44,160
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and then other assistance and support,

01:32:44,160 --> 01:32:46,140
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: as well as the salary of our

1147
01:32:46,140 --> 01:32:48,300
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: COS personnel. We would like to note also that

1148
01:32:48,300 --> 01:32:50,920
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 146 personnel right now

1149
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:56,020
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and 97 personnel of that are under the contract of service or

01:32:56,020 --> 01:32:57,660
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: JO status.

1151
01:32:58,820 --> 01:32:59,480
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And the next

1152
01:32:59,480 --> 01:33:01,360
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: is for the Film Heritage Preservation

1153
01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:03,880
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and program, which is basically

1154
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:05,120
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the archiving.

1155
01:33:06,260 --> 01:33:08,400
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We have a total budget of 8.4

1156
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:09,880
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: million and

1157
01:33:10,420 --> 01:33:12,680
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: 2.2 of that amount is

1158
01:33:12,680 --> 01:33:14,540
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the personal services. And the MOE

1159
01:33:14,540 --> 01:33:16,660
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: is 6.2 million. The 6.2

1160
01:33:16,820 --> 01:33:18,580
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: is just allocated for

1161
01:33:20,460 --> 01:33:22,680
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: maintenance of vaults and of

1162
01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:24,920
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: our presentation equipment.

1163
01:33:25,140 --> 01:33:27,220
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: It does not include a budget

1164
01:33:27,220 --> 01:33:32,360
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for restoration of films, which cost 2 to 5 million per film,

1165
01:33:32,700 --> 01:33:37,760
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: depending on the status of the reels or the films that will be restored.

1166
01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:41,460
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the RLEAP or the automatic appropriations,

1167
01:33:41,680 --> 01:33:45,460
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 2.6 million budget for next year.

1168
01:33:46,740 --> 01:33:47,820
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Next slide, please.

1169
01:33:47,820 --> 01:33:55,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: This is just the breakdown of the budget per division or per section of our program.

1170
01:33:55,320 --> 01:34:02,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Again, for the personnel services, we have 38.3 million.

1171
01:34:02,780 --> 01:34:07,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: That's across from general administration, the FIPDP,

1172
01:34:08,100 --> 01:34:10,720
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or the Film Industry Promotion Development Program,

1173
01:34:10,860 --> 01:34:13,560
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and the Film Heritage Preservation Program.

1174
01:34:13,560 --> 01:34:21,560
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then we also have a budget of 45.6 million for GAS.

1175
01:34:21,900 --> 01:34:25,060
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And again, 37.3 million for the salary of...

1176
01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:29,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: of our COS personnel and other mandatory expenses.

1177
01:34:29,580 --> 01:34:36,720
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So it's taking a lot of our budget in terms of implementing of our programs.

1178
01:34:36,980 --> 01:34:41,700
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Education Division, we are allocating 21.2 million.

1179
01:34:42,100 --> 01:34:48,260
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: For Festivals Division, this includes our support for our regional film festivals

1180
01:34:48,260 --> 01:34:55,300
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and participation of Filipino filmmakers and FDCP for international film festivals.

1181
01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:59,580
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Exhibition Division, we have 12.2 million budget.

1182
01:34:59,580 --> 01:35:08,300
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Basically, this is for the operation of our four Cinematheques and the OneFlix application, streaming platform.

1183
01:35:08,960 --> 01:35:15,000
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Film Philippines Office, we have allocated 58.3 million budget.

1184
01:35:15,640 --> 01:35:20,680
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: This is the biggest chunk among the budget because this is the incentive programs that we provide

1185
01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:25,300
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: in promoting the Philippines as a filming location for foreign production.

1186
01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:31,540
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Production Support Unit, we are allocating 51.6 million.

1187
01:35:31,700 --> 01:35:32,500
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: This is also...

1188
01:35:32,500 --> 01:35:37,760
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: This is the second highest for the budget allocation that we have for all the programs of FDCP.

1189
01:35:38,340 --> 01:35:40,140
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Again, this is a production incentive.

1190
01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:46,200
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then these two programs, the Film Philippines Office and the Production Support Unit,

1191
01:35:47,120 --> 01:35:50,220
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: given that they have the biggest chunk of the budget,

1192
01:35:50,220 --> 01:35:53,840
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: they are also giving us the most economic return ratio,

1193
01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:55,220
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: ratio meaning that...

1194
01:35:55,320 --> 01:36:02,620
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the incentives that we are providing for the Film Location Incentive Program,

1195
01:36:02,620 --> 01:36:06,220
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: there is a 1 is to 13 economic return ratio,

1196
01:36:06,220 --> 01:36:10,880
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: which means for every 1 peso grant that we are providing, 13 pesos goes back to the economy.

1197
01:36:10,880 --> 01:36:15,920
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Those projects are purely foreign projects that are shooting here in the Philippines.

1198
01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:19,560
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the projects that are co-produced by Filipino producers,

1199
01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:25,300
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: the economic return ratio is 1 is to 16, meaning for every 1 peso that we provide as grant,

1200
01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,660
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: 16 pesos goes back to the economy.

1201
01:36:28,140 --> 01:36:31,620
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the local production grant that we are providing,

1202
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:34,520
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: there is a 1 is to 6 economic return ratio,

1203
01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:39,020
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: meaning 1 peso grant, 6 pesos goes back to the economy.

1204
01:36:39,260 --> 01:36:47,140
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So the local film production really has benefits in terms of our economic growth.

1205
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:52,240
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then other divisions, the Office of the Chairman and the OED,

1206
01:36:52,440 --> 01:36:54,400
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: as well as the Special Projects Unit,

1207
01:36:55,320 --> 01:36:57,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have a budget of 6.5 million.

1208
01:36:57,320 --> 01:36:59,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Policy and Planning Division,

1209
01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:01,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 6.5 million budget.

1210
01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:03,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: For the Communications Unit,

1211
01:37:03,320 --> 01:37:05,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 1.8 million budget.

1212
01:37:05,320 --> 01:37:07,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And again, for the Philippine Film Archives,

1213
01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:09,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: you only have 6.2 million budget.

1214
01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:14,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And a total of 276.94 million budget for the MOOE of the agency.

1215
01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:18,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So that's it for the breakdown of our 2027-F approved budget.

1216
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:20,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And of course, we have a wish list.

1217
01:37:20,320 --> 01:37:24,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So basically, we have cut down some of our programs

1218
01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:27,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: that are already growing.

1219
01:37:27,080 --> 01:37:36,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And hopefully, we could be able to have some of these be granted.

1220
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:40,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: On the list is the film incentives.

1221
01:37:42,080 --> 01:37:46,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We have a request of 109.8 million.

1222
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:53,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: That's for the backlogs because the incentives that we are providing to our grantees are in tranches.

1223
01:37:54,080 --> 01:37:59,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So the 109 million accounts to the second and third tranches of the grants.

1224
01:37:59,080 --> 01:38:02,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the 2027 Film Location Incentive Programs,

1225
01:38:02,080 --> 01:38:05,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we would like to request additional 120 million

1226
01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:14,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because it's expected that we will be releasing around 120 million for five projects,

1227
01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:21,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: which could bring in half a billion pesos in the country for their shooting here.

1228
01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:22,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And

1229
01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:29,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: next is for the film licensing for Interagency Program and Philippine Embassies Program.

1230
01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:35,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We are requesting 1.1 million because we are also supporting our posts abroad

1231
01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:40,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: when they conduct Filipino film festivals or other cultural activities that are related to film.

1232
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:48,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And of course, purchase of production equipment accessories for our Cinemathèque amounting to 1.1 million,

1233
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:50,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: as well as projectors for our Cinemathèque amounting to 1.1 million.

1234
01:38:50,080 --> 01:38:58,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then we have quite a lot of requests.

1235
01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:06,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So we also have requested 895,000 for our Cinemathèque Center Programming,

1236
01:39:06,080 --> 01:39:10,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: World Day for Audiovisual Heritage and Pelikula ng Bayan Caravan,

1237
01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:12,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: documentado in Asian cinema.

1238
01:39:12,080 --> 01:39:17,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So we would like to highlight that the Pelikula ng Bayan activity is basically,

1239
01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:19,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we are going around different towns.

1240
01:39:19,080 --> 01:39:24,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and cities in the country to showcase various films,

1241
01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:27,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: particularly classic films that we have restored.

1242
01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:32,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then the Cine 50, we are requesting additional 1.5 million.

1243
01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:40,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: This is showcasing various films at a lower price of ticket amounting to only 50 pesos.

1244
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:49,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then additional value of 11 million for features,

1245
01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:56,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: film love, documentary love,

1246
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: bring in here Filipino,

1247
01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:02,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and festival town hall meeting and engagements amounting to 1.7 million.

1248
01:40:02,080 --> 01:40:07,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And OneFlix Cinemathèque Integrated Marketing Promotions, 2 million.

1249
01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:13,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: OneFlix Anniversary and Films for Peace Short Film Competition, 1 million again.

1250
01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:17,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Group 2 list of our wish list.

1251
01:40:17,080 --> 01:40:22,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So the first request is amounting to 451,000

1252
01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:25,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the procurement of preservation supplies

1253
01:40:25,080 --> 01:40:31,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and 551,000 for the procurement of digitization equipment and photo scanner

1254
01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:34,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because with the advent of continuous growing of technology,

1255
01:40:34,080 --> 01:40:37,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we really have to update and upgrade the equipment that we have

1256
01:40:37,080 --> 01:40:41,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the preservation and archiving facilities that we have.

1257
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:46,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And another 50 million for the restoration of 59 titles

1258
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:48,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for 2027.

1259
01:40:48,080 --> 01:40:56,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So we have already identified films that we can restore in 2027.

1260
01:40:56,080 --> 01:41:00,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So these are of historical importance to the country

1261
01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:04,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and some of it really necessitates or time of the essence

1262
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:08,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because the film is already deteriorating.

1263
01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:15,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So the total amount request for the Film Heritage Preservation Program is 51 million.

1264
01:41:16,080 --> 01:41:20,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then lastly for the General Management Services,

1265
01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:22,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we are also requesting additional 2 million

1266
01:41:22,080 --> 01:41:26,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the distributed antenna system for Philippine Film Heritage Building

1267
01:41:26,080 --> 01:41:33,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because as it is right now, there is no signal in the building.

1268
01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:37,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And we usually have events because we have a Cinemathèque in the building

1269
01:41:37,080 --> 01:41:41,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: so we are bringing in a lot of people, students in the area

1270
01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:44,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and we don't have signal because it's a dead spot.

1271
01:41:44,080 --> 01:41:49,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And another 2 million for the quality ISO certification

1272
01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:54,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because we are hoping that the agency would be ISO certified as well.

1273
01:41:54,080 --> 01:41:58,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then hopefully we could also come up with another behind the reel

1274
01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:01,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: CISO next year amounting to 3.2 million.

1275
01:42:01,080 --> 01:42:06,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: It's important because it allows the young generation of filmmakers

1276
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:13,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: to have access to discussions among key personalities in the industry

1277
01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:15,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or pillars of the industry.

1278
01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:21,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Next is a 1.5 million request for the procurement of the humidifiers

1279
01:42:21,080 --> 01:42:23,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for Cinemathèque centers.

1280
01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:30,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: It's because the building design requires us to have the humidifiers

1281
01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:33,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because right now because of its design,

1282
01:42:33,080 --> 01:42:38,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: it grows a lot of molds whenever we have this rainy season.

1283
01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:42,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So we are also requesting additional 1.5 million for that.

1284
01:42:43,080 --> 01:42:48,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So a total of 8.7 million for the GMS or the General Management Service.

1285
01:42:48,080 --> 01:43:00,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Total breakdown for the wishlist that we have is 311 million pesos.

1286
01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:04,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And I would like to pass on the floor to our chairman.

1287
01:43:04,080 --> 01:43:07,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Just some points of clarification why the Cinemathèque

1288
01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:09,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Oh, I'm sorry.

1289
01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:12,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Just a point of clarification why the Cinemathèque.

1290
01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:17,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: The Cinemathèque are micro cinemas which are located in various provinces.

1291
01:43:17,080 --> 01:43:22,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: There is one in Bacolo, there is one in Iloilo, and there is one in Davao.

1292
01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:28,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: But then we hopefully will be able to build more Cinemathèque before 2028

1293
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:31,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: when this administration would have to step down

1294
01:43:31,080 --> 01:43:34,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: being coterminous with the present administration.

1295
01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:35,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Why the Cinemathèque?

1296
01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:38,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Because these are not only venues for showing films

1297
01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:40,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: but it has become also a cultural hub

1298
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:42,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: for regional filmmakers to get together

1299
01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:45,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and have their activities in these various venues.

1300
01:43:45,080 --> 01:43:48,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So it's almost an imperative, it's almost a need

1301
01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:56,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: for, you know, to provide the venue for regional filmmakers

1302
01:43:56,080 --> 01:44:00,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: as well as cinemathèque

1303
01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:06,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to see the problem

1304
01:44:10,080 --> 01:44:16,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to see the problem of digitalization.

1305
01:44:16,080 --> 01:44:19,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I've done over 100 films as a director

1306
01:44:19,080 --> 01:44:24,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and I've come to realize that maybe 80% of them are already dead films.

1307
01:44:24,080 --> 01:44:30,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Because if you allow these, especially those shot in cells as negatives

1308
01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:33,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the level of deterioration is very quick.

1309
01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:37,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Now, unless we are able to preserve these, to digitize these

1310
01:44:37,080 --> 01:44:39,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and preserve these immediately

1311
01:44:39,080 --> 01:44:42,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: we might even lose more films.

1312
01:44:42,080 --> 01:44:47,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: What is so sad is some of the masterpieces we have restored

1313
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:50,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: were not recovered here in our country but abroad.

1314
01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:53,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So these are some major priorities.

1315
01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:57,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We also have a priority, Mr. Chairman, in terms of incentives.

1316
01:44:57,080 --> 01:45:00,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Mapakatotoo na tayo na hindi natin kayang pantayan ang incentives

1317
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:03,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na binibigay ng ibang bansa dahil sila ay mas mayaman

1318
01:45:03,920 --> 01:45:07,680
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: at ang gobyerno nila ay mas may maluwag na magbigay ng pera

1319
01:45:07,680 --> 01:45:11,020
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: para mahingkayat ang mga tao na mag-shoot sa kanila.

1320
01:45:11,480 --> 01:45:15,340
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang ating tanging panlawan lamang ay magagaling ang mga Pilipino

1321
01:45:15,340 --> 01:45:19,120
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: sa kanilang ginagawa at tayo ay nagsasalita ng wikang Ingles.

1322
01:45:19,420 --> 01:45:22,140
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya mas madali para sa foreigners na pumunta dito.

1323
01:45:22,780 --> 01:45:27,880
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang laki-laking economic benefit kapag nagsushoot dito ang mga foreigners.

1324
01:45:27,880 --> 01:45:32,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Why? Number one, hindi lamang yung mga tao sa pelikula ang kumikita.

1325
01:45:32,440 --> 01:45:33,700
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: May exchange of technology.

1326
01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:37,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At ikalawa, ang daming ancillary businesses na nakikinabang

1327
01:45:37,920 --> 01:45:39,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: tuwing may nagsushooting dito.

1328
01:45:41,220 --> 01:45:44,820
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Wishful thinking ito na sana mas matulungan at sana mas madagdagan

1329
01:45:44,820 --> 01:45:46,400
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang incentives na magbibigay natin.

1330
01:45:46,500 --> 01:45:50,300
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: But we're also being very realistic in terms of the priorities of the government

1331
01:45:50,300 --> 01:45:52,060
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: as to where they would put the tax pay.

1332
01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:54,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Mr. Chairman, let me cut in.

1333
01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:57,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Could it be?

1334
01:45:57,880 --> 01:46:01,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Could it be na incentives lang kaya hindi tayo makapaghikay?

1335
01:46:01,780 --> 01:46:03,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Or there may be other reasons.

1336
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:08,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Are you also looking to the fact na maaring peace and order

1337
01:46:08,100 --> 01:46:12,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kaya ayaw pumunta dito ng mga artista or political turmoil

1338
01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:17,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: na medyo turn off para sa kanila, na medyo magulo tayo dito,

1339
01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:22,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: nag-aaway, may mga kinasuhan ng mga opisyal ng gobyerno.

1340
01:46:22,620 --> 01:46:26,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Couldn't be some of those are some of the reasons kung bakit

1341
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:27,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: na turn off sila.

1342
01:46:27,880 --> 01:46:29,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Bakit ako magsushoot dyan?

1343
01:46:29,460 --> 01:46:34,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Rally dito, rally doon, sigawan dito, yung vicepresidente nila nandoon,

1344
01:46:34,140 --> 01:46:39,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kinakasuhan, yung mga opisyal nila nakakulong, ilang mga miyembro na senado,

1345
01:46:40,180 --> 01:46:46,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: et cetera, or I would siguro prefer a place na kamukha na Pilipinas pero tahimik,

1346
01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:48,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: like Thailand, tahimik siya.

1347
01:46:48,640 --> 01:46:52,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: E dito lang tayo kaysa baka mapunta tayo, madamay tayo sa gulo.

1348
01:46:52,040 --> 01:46:56,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi niyo ba naisip yan na maaring hindi lang doon sa incentive?

1349
01:46:57,000 --> 01:46:57,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ano?

1350
01:46:57,480 --> 01:46:58,900
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Naka-factor in na rin po yun.

1351
01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:03,980
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Naka-factor in po yun dahil ang perception ng mundo sa Pilipinas,

1352
01:47:04,140 --> 01:47:07,260
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: lalo-lalo na sa ngayon at kung ano-ano ang lumalabas sa balita

1353
01:47:07,260 --> 01:47:10,480
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: at hinahighlight ng balita ay isang factor yan.

1354
01:47:10,840 --> 01:47:14,020
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero ang napaka katakataka, hindi naman katakataka,

1355
01:47:14,160 --> 01:47:16,740
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang lalo nakakalakas ng loob, Mr. Chair,

1356
01:47:17,240 --> 01:47:18,720
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: is na dito pa rin sila pumupunta.

1357
01:47:19,420 --> 01:47:22,100
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, in spite and despite, dito pa rin sila pumupunta.

1358
01:47:22,100 --> 01:47:26,200
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero hindi po natin mapapagkaila na ang perception nila ng Pilipinas

1359
01:47:26,200 --> 01:47:29,620
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ay a very big factor in not only in the movie industry

1360
01:47:29,620 --> 01:47:31,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: but the entire business setup.

1361
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:33,580
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, naka-factor in po yan.

1362
01:47:34,140 --> 01:47:34,400
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay.

1363
01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:39,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay, my next question will be

1364
01:47:39,820 --> 01:47:46,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung hinihingi po ninyong proposed budget na 425 million, ano po,

1365
01:47:47,140 --> 01:47:49,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: pero 314 million lamang nasa NEP.

1366
01:47:50,980 --> 01:47:54,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: At meron pa kayong 311 million na sa wish list.

1367
01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:55,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Alright, so,

1368
01:47:55,320 --> 01:47:57,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: if kukumputin ho ninyo yan,

1369
01:47:58,060 --> 01:48:01,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: parang bakit po umahabot sa 625 million

1370
01:48:01,360 --> 01:48:03,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ang inyong total funding requirement

1371
01:48:03,260 --> 01:48:08,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kung 425 million lamang ang inyong original proposal, Ms. Rachel?

1372
01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:12,260
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Actually po, one is for the film restoration.

1373
01:48:13,540 --> 01:48:19,100
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: The team who's handling the restoration has submitted us their proposal

1374
01:48:19,100 --> 01:48:21,020
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: which is amounting to 50 million.

1375
01:48:21,300 --> 01:48:24,960
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Just recently, when they were able to identify,

1376
01:48:25,320 --> 01:48:25,960
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: the titles.

1377
01:48:26,460 --> 01:48:30,420
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And that was even before the budget call of the DBM

1378
01:48:30,420 --> 01:48:35,800
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: was conducted early January or January this year.

1379
01:48:35,800 --> 01:48:39,080
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the additional budget, again,

1380
01:48:39,260 --> 01:48:40,640
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: is from the incentives

1381
01:48:40,640 --> 01:48:44,420
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because the cycle 2 opened last September

1382
01:48:44,420 --> 01:48:47,240
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and several film productions,

1383
01:48:47,580 --> 01:48:49,760
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: both for foreign and local, have applied.

1384
01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:52,100
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And they're all good projects.

1385
01:48:52,640 --> 01:48:54,800
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And based on their application,

1386
01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:59,480
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: again, they are spending a lot here in the country.

1387
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:04,260
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So, we're just wondering if we can give more

1388
01:49:04,260 --> 01:49:08,860
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or we can accept more applications

1389
01:49:08,860 --> 01:49:12,120
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and approve their applications for the incentives

1390
01:49:12,120 --> 01:49:15,820
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because they might look for another country

1391
01:49:15,820 --> 01:49:20,040
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or alternative country if we don't give that incentives to them.

1392
01:49:20,440 --> 01:49:24,320
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We just finalized the deliberation last month.

1393
01:49:24,320 --> 01:49:24,760
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So,

1394
01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:31,100
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: those budgets are factored in in our wish list that was presented earlier.

1395
01:49:31,600 --> 01:49:33,260
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: If I can add to that, Mr. Chair,

1396
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:35,700
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: kasalanan ko yung isa yun sa preservation

1397
01:49:35,700 --> 01:49:39,320
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: kasi pinahanap ko kung ano pa yung mga magagandang pelikula

1398
01:49:39,320 --> 01:49:41,840
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na maa-access natin na pwedeng ma-restore.

1399
01:49:42,180 --> 01:49:43,780
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: And it takes time to find all these

1400
01:49:43,780 --> 01:49:45,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: until we came up with a list na,

1401
01:49:45,160 --> 01:49:46,260
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ay, ito pa lang, restorable.

1402
01:49:46,660 --> 01:49:48,240
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya hindi na-factor in yun sa una.

1403
01:49:48,360 --> 01:49:50,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At sa kakalawa, maganda po yung problema na

1404
01:49:50,440 --> 01:49:51,840
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang dami-dami nag-a-apply

1405
01:49:51,840 --> 01:49:54,880
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na kumuha ng mga grants and incentives

1406
01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:57,000
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to be able to shoot here in the country

1407
01:49:57,000 --> 01:49:57,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and at the same time

1408
01:49:57,920 --> 01:50:00,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to have Philippine film workers

1409
01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:02,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: join in in these productions.

1410
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:04,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So, it's a good problem

1411
01:50:04,440 --> 01:50:06,760
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: which eventually became a budgetary problem.

1412
01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:09,440
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Going back to film restoration,

1413
01:50:10,420 --> 01:50:12,780
Senator Erwin Tulfo: how does the FDCP ensure

1414
01:50:12,780 --> 01:50:16,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: that restoring a project or a film

1415
01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:19,520
Senator Erwin Tulfo: is technically feasible and cost-effective

1416
01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:22,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: before public funds are allocated?

1417
01:50:22,520 --> 01:50:23,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Baka di naman natin mabawi.

1418
01:50:23,840 --> 01:50:24,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Baka wala nang,

1419
01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:25,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung mga interest,

1420
01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:27,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung mga black and white,

1421
01:50:27,660 --> 01:50:28,880
Senator Erwin Tulfo: naging brown and white,

1422
01:50:29,020 --> 01:50:30,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: may manunood pa ba noon?

1423
01:50:30,120 --> 01:50:31,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi na kilala ng mga kabataan ngayon,

1424
01:50:32,080 --> 01:50:34,180
Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga nangamatay na yung mga tao na yun.

1425
01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:37,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: And baka boring yung sa inyo,

1426
01:50:37,760 --> 01:50:39,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga film directors, of course.

1427
01:50:39,420 --> 01:50:40,520
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Meron po kayong keen,

1428
01:50:40,620 --> 01:50:42,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: may eye po kayo na maganda ito.

1429
01:50:42,240 --> 01:50:44,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pero sa ordinary viewer,

1430
01:50:44,500 --> 01:50:45,660
Senator Erwin Tulfo: lalo mga kabataan ngayon,

1431
01:50:45,780 --> 01:50:47,800
Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga Gen Z, Gen X, Gen Y,

1432
01:50:48,480 --> 01:50:53,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: eh, hindi sa kanila ikang kaakit-akit.

1433
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:54,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I'll answer.

1434
01:50:54,880 --> 01:50:56,380
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I'll answer that in two points, Mr. Chair.

1435
01:50:56,480 --> 01:50:58,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Firstly, before we restore a film,

1436
01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:01,200
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: we make sure that the film is still restorable.

1437
01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:02,060
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay?

1438
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:03,880
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We have technical people assessing

1439
01:51:03,880 --> 01:51:05,040
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the state of the negative

1440
01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:06,060
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: or the state of the print

1441
01:51:06,060 --> 01:51:07,600
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: if it is still accessible

1442
01:51:07,600 --> 01:51:09,760
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: or it is still restorable.

1443
01:51:11,260 --> 01:51:13,200
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: There are certain cases in which

1444
01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:15,380
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the film is just so damaged

1445
01:51:15,380 --> 01:51:17,140
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: that we don't pursue it anymore

1446
01:51:17,140 --> 01:51:19,260
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: because it's going to cause an arm and a leg

1447
01:51:19,260 --> 01:51:20,700
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and your next reincarnation

1448
01:51:20,700 --> 01:51:22,780
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: in order to completely restore it.

1449
01:51:22,780 --> 01:51:23,500
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ikalawa,

1450
01:51:23,500 --> 01:51:25,200
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: about the new generation

1451
01:51:25,200 --> 01:51:26,360
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: appreciating old films.

1452
01:51:26,480 --> 01:51:28,060
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I will use an example of what happened

1453
01:51:28,060 --> 01:51:29,540
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: last September 4

1454
01:51:29,540 --> 01:51:30,660
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: at the opening of the

1455
01:51:30,660 --> 01:51:32,040
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Philippine Film Industry Month.

1456
01:51:32,360 --> 01:51:33,200
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: For the first time,

1457
01:51:33,460 --> 01:51:36,360
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang mga Gen Z at Gen Y and Gen X

1458
01:51:36,360 --> 01:51:37,500
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: napanood ang tinimbangka,

1459
01:51:38,280 --> 01:51:38,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ngunit kulang.

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At nagulat sila.

1461
01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:41,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pero, Mr. Chairman,

1462
01:51:41,980 --> 01:51:44,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: hindi kayo, baka mga yung nanood na yun

1463
01:51:44,040 --> 01:51:45,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ay mga estudyante

1464
01:51:46,060 --> 01:51:47,540
Senator Erwin Tulfo: na mga ang courses nila

1465
01:51:47,540 --> 01:51:48,520
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ay nasa film.

01:51:48,660 --> 01:51:49,680
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ay, ay, hindi po.

1467
01:51:49,920 --> 01:51:50,460
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Hindi po.

1468
01:51:50,520 --> 01:51:52,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: It was a real cross-section of people.

1469
01:51:52,560 --> 01:51:53,420
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: And as a matter,

1470
01:51:53,500 --> 01:51:53,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: a real fact,

01:51:54,120 --> 01:51:55,160
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: may mga request kami

1472
01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:57,100
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to show the film commercially.

1473
01:51:57,720 --> 01:51:59,100
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, to make it more accessible

1474
01:51:59,100 --> 01:52:00,680
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: in commercial cinemas.

1475
01:52:01,140 --> 01:52:01,820
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya lang,

1476
01:52:02,140 --> 01:52:03,300
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ito, ang tragedy niyan,

1477
01:52:03,720 --> 01:52:05,660
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: yung arming agreement

01:52:06,980 --> 01:52:08,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: has to be non-commercial.

1480
01:52:08,860 --> 01:52:10,960
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kasi hindi na pag-aari ng Pilipinas

1481
01:52:10,960 --> 01:52:11,820
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang tinimbang.

1482
01:52:12,240 --> 01:52:13,240
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pag-aari na ito

1483
01:52:13,240 --> 01:52:14,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ng isang French company.

1484
01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:16,160
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: And for order for us

1485
01:52:16,160 --> 01:52:17,240
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to be able to show it,

1486
01:52:17,400 --> 01:52:18,660
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: we need permission from them

1487
01:52:18,660 --> 01:52:20,040
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and the permission requires

1488
01:52:20,040 --> 01:52:20,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: it's non-commercial.

1489
01:52:20,860 --> 01:52:22,320
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So we can only show it

1490
01:52:22,320 --> 01:52:22,860
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: in cinematext

1491
01:52:23,500 --> 01:52:24,560

1493
01:52:26,540 --> 01:52:27,320
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Meron pong clamor.

1494
01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:29,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Noong in-announce namin

1495
01:52:29,920 --> 01:52:31,600

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Even in cinematext,

1502
01:52:42,880 --> 01:52:44,000
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I would greatly attribute it

1503
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:44,640
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to the fact that

1894
02:02:41,620 --> 02:02:45,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Doon lang po kami nagde-date nung driver ng kapitbahay din nila.

1895
02:02:46,400 --> 02:02:49,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: E paano ito? Can we do something about this?

1896
02:02:49,380 --> 02:02:52,160
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Medyo mahalo eh. Medyo pataas ng pataas eh.

1897
02:02:52,260 --> 02:02:55,460
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Totoo po yun. Dahil kasi ang foreign firms, sumaabot 400.

1898
02:02:55,620 --> 02:02:58,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pag nasa IMAX ka pa, 4 digits na binabayad nyo.

1899
02:02:58,560 --> 02:02:59,840
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: But we already talked to some of the foreign firms.

1900
02:02:59,840 --> 02:02:59,980
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We already talked to some of the foreign firms.

1901
02:02:59,980 --> 02:03:04,080
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We already talked to SEAP, that is the Cinema Exhibitors Association of the Philippines.

1902
02:03:04,500 --> 02:03:06,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Binabaan na nila ang Filipino films.

1903
02:03:06,940 --> 02:03:11,560
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang ginagawa ng producer, kinakausap ang cinema exhibitors at naibababa.

1904
02:03:12,360 --> 02:03:19,800
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Right now, it's going at around 200 to 220 to 270 as compared to 400 sa foreign firms.

1905
02:03:20,180 --> 02:03:22,580
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero mataas pa rin yun kung tutuusin mo.

1906
02:03:22,960 --> 02:03:27,660
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kung sa regular minimum wage earner, hindi po ba?

1907
02:03:27,660 --> 02:03:28,940
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero yun lang ano eh.

1908
02:03:28,940 --> 02:03:34,180
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: May limitasyon yung pwedeng pakialam namin dahil that is a private entity eh.

1909
02:03:34,500 --> 02:03:35,380
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Hindi kami pwedeng makaka-

1910
02:03:35,380 --> 02:03:37,920
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We also asked the DTI to help us with this.

1911
02:03:38,220 --> 02:03:40,480
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero limitado yung powers namin to intervene.

1912
02:03:40,840 --> 02:03:43,880
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: But in fairness to SEAP, they're trying to cooperate.

1913
02:03:44,460 --> 02:03:49,420
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: As a matter of fact, September 12 po, which is tomorrow, lahat ng sinihan 100 pesos.

1914
02:03:50,020 --> 02:03:51,500
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Yung Philippine Cinema Day.

1915
02:03:51,900 --> 02:03:54,640
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Whether it is foreign or local, 100 pesos.

1916
02:03:54,740 --> 02:03:55,440
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Nag-agree sila.

1917
02:03:55,800 --> 02:03:58,220
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: But these are of course exceptions to the rule.

1918
02:03:58,220 --> 02:04:01,660
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya rin po may program kami yung Pilikula ng Bayan.

1919
02:04:02,460 --> 02:04:08,280
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Nagpapalabas kami for free sa mga open spaces, sa mga LGU endorsed spaces.

1920
02:04:08,660 --> 02:04:13,220
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Para makapanood tulad nung kabataan ko, nanonood ako ng sine sa basketball court.

1921
02:04:14,160 --> 02:04:14,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay.

1922
02:04:14,740 --> 02:04:19,220
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya rin po ba yung pag-i-inspect sa mga sinihan na yan or is it MTRCB?

1923
02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:20,840
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: MTRCB po yan.

1924
02:04:20,860 --> 02:04:26,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Na ikang conducive pa rin na pag may sunog, maka-exit yung mga tao.

1925
02:04:26,320 --> 02:04:26,940
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: MTRCB yan.

1926
02:04:26,940 --> 02:04:31,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ah, kasi nung bata ako, nakapunta ako, nanonood ako ng pelikula.

1927
02:04:31,680 --> 02:04:34,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Paglabas ko, kamot ako ng kamot, ang dami na palang surot.

1928
02:04:35,360 --> 02:04:36,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yung iba naman, munti ako nadulas.

1929
02:04:37,020 --> 02:04:43,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pagpasok ko sa sear, napakadulas dahil yung pelikula po, X-rated, Susmar Yosef.

1930
02:04:43,680 --> 02:04:46,160
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya mabuti, wala ko nakita mga tiyanak ko doon.

1931
02:04:47,080 --> 02:04:52,440
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Trabaho nyo ba yung kaninong trabaho yan na yung sinihan maganda pa rin naman?

1932
02:04:52,700 --> 02:04:55,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Na yung worth yung binabayad mo?

1933
02:04:55,640 --> 02:04:56,260
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay.

1934
02:04:56,940 --> 02:04:59,600
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya lahat po yan, ang City Engineer's Office ang in-charge doon.

1935
02:04:59,920 --> 02:05:04,420
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang sa MTRCB, yung mga himalang nagaganap sa loob ng sinihan.

1936
02:05:05,080 --> 02:05:07,740
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Dati po, may mga raid pa po ganun.

1937
02:05:07,960 --> 02:05:08,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Oo.

1938
02:05:09,060 --> 02:05:09,920
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yun yung mga...

1939
02:05:09,920 --> 02:05:13,200
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Dalawang tao, yung isa walang ulo, yung isa...

1940
02:05:13,200 --> 02:05:14,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yung dami yung nahuhulim na mga players.

1941
02:05:14,320 --> 02:05:15,220
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Dami rin po yan.

1942
02:05:15,560 --> 02:05:18,060
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kamisang po sa comfort room, apat ang paa, hindi ba?

1943
02:05:18,600 --> 02:05:22,960
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya lahat po yan, trabaho po yan ng mga deputy ng MTRCB.

1944
02:05:22,960 --> 02:05:25,900
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At saka yun naman sa structural, sa City Engineer's Office.

1945
02:05:25,940 --> 02:05:25,960
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kung...

1946
02:05:26,940 --> 02:05:28,700
FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Lalo po yung mga fire exits.

1947
02:05:28,840 --> 02:05:29,140
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yeah.

1948
02:05:29,400 --> 02:05:30,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Apo, importante po yan.

1949
02:05:30,240 --> 02:05:31,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Alright, okay.

1950
02:05:31,520 --> 02:05:33,240
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Anyway, sir, last na lang po.

1951
02:05:33,780 --> 02:05:39,080
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ang absorption po ng FDCP sa OMBI under the special provision po ng GAAP.

1952
02:05:39,620 --> 02:05:40,520
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Batas na po yan.

1953
02:05:40,640 --> 02:05:42,300
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi ba dapat sundin na?

1954
02:05:44,120 --> 02:05:50,540
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: In as much as we want, Mr. Chair, pero we are also bounded by the Optimization Act,

1955
02:05:50,620 --> 02:05:51,820
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Government Optimization Act.

1956
02:05:51,820 --> 02:05:55,820
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So, ang advice din po ng DBM at CSC, we have to go through the submission of...

1957
02:05:56,940 --> 02:06:08,860
FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: the optimization plan and then they will have a hearing for that and discuss if there's really a need for the FDCP to absorb the personnel of OMBI.

1958
02:06:09,400 --> 02:06:10,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Alright, thank you.

1959
02:06:10,480 --> 02:06:26,840
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Well, since there are no more questions from this chair, the fiscal year 2027 proposed budget of the Film Development Council of the Philippines now being submitted for plenary consideration subject to the discussions and submission.

1960
02:06:26,840 --> 02:06:28,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: of requested documents.

1961
02:06:28,260 --> 02:06:28,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you.

1962
02:06:29,100 --> 02:06:32,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: The FDCP delegation is permitted to leave the room.

1963
02:06:32,480 --> 02:06:32,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you, po.

1964
02:06:33,260 --> 02:06:33,840
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you, po.

1965
02:06:37,140 --> 02:06:38,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hearing suspended.

1966
02:08:56,840 --> 02:09:02,740
Senator Erwin Tulfo: We now proceed with the presentation of the proposed budget of the Philippine Racing Commission.

1967
02:09:03,340 --> 02:09:08,620
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Chairman de Leon, please proceed with your presentation and thank you for patiently waiting.

1968
02:09:09,400 --> 02:09:15,300
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Dr. Edwin, Mr. Chair, salamat sa opportunity for us to present our budget for 2027.

1969
02:09:16,060 --> 02:09:25,460
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: As we all know, Philippine Racing Commission created 52 years ago by Presidential Decree No. 420 by President Marcos Sr.

1970
02:09:25,460 --> 02:09:32,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, we are mandated to provide employment to the Philippine people and generate taxes for the government.

1971
02:09:33,480 --> 02:09:40,060
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So far, we are providing more than 5,000 direct and indirect employment to the Philippine people.

1972
02:09:40,680 --> 02:09:46,420
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: And at the same time, we are also producing OFW to Japan, Australia, and other parts of the country.

1973
02:09:47,140 --> 02:09:52,000
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: As of now, there are more than 2,000 OFW in Japan alone.

1974
02:09:52,800 --> 02:09:55,420
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: That came from the Philippine horse racing industry.

1975
02:09:56,180 --> 02:10:01,340
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, we are mandated to provide government revenue every year.

1976
02:10:01,960 --> 02:10:08,780
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: At the average, for the last five years, we are providing 700 million to 800 million per year to the government.

1977
02:10:09,680 --> 02:10:17,380
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: The budget that is being given to us by the government is only one-fifth of the total revenue that we are giving.

1978
02:10:17,900 --> 02:10:22,560
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: If they give us 200 million, we are returning 800 million to the government.

1979
02:10:23,180 --> 02:10:23,740
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So,

1980
02:10:25,460 --> 02:10:34,140
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: we are mandated to supervise the horse racing, at the same time, the breeding industry in the Philippines.

1981
02:10:35,760 --> 02:10:38,760
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Horse racing in the Philippines started 159 years ago.

1982
02:10:39,620 --> 02:10:45,220
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, we are ahead of some other nations in Asia and worldwide.

1983
02:10:46,400 --> 02:10:53,280
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: This is the only industry or sports industry that is accepted by more than 140 countries worldwide.

1984
02:10:54,380 --> 02:10:55,100
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So,

1985
02:10:55,460 --> 02:11:03,340
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: as we observed in the last five years when we traveled to other conferences in the Asian Racing Federation,

1986
02:11:04,060 --> 02:11:08,220
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: International Federation of Horse Racing Authority, and APAR,

1987
02:11:09,640 --> 02:11:21,840
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: we found out that horse racing is really the only sport or one of the very few sports in the Philippines that can be converted to a sports tourism industry.

1988
02:11:22,800 --> 02:11:24,260
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, all sectors,

1989
02:11:24,260 --> 02:11:24,760
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: you know,

1990
02:11:24,760 --> 02:11:25,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: IPO observed,

1991
02:11:25,460 --> 02:11:34,160
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: from the King of Saudi Arabia to the different royalties in Europe, are all into horse racing.

1992
02:11:35,160 --> 02:11:39,480
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, we are left behind, Mr. Chair, for so many years.

1993
02:11:39,640 --> 02:11:44,360
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Napabayaan po ito ng mga nakalang administrasyon at hindi nakita yung potential nito.

1994
02:11:45,300 --> 02:11:46,560
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: To give you an example,

1995
02:11:47,560 --> 02:11:48,480
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: right now,

1996
02:11:48,900 --> 02:11:49,800
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Japan,

1997
02:11:50,500 --> 02:11:52,300
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: in terms of peso sales per year,

1998
02:11:52,840 --> 02:11:54,240
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: is selling 1.3 trillion pesos per year.

1999
02:11:54,520 --> 02:11:55,240
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: 1.3 trillion pesos per year.

2000
02:11:55,460 --> 02:12:03,060
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: While Korea, right now, is selling 700 billion pesos per year.

2001
02:12:03,720 --> 02:12:08,960
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, we are of the same number in terms of horses as of Korea.

2002
02:12:09,700 --> 02:12:13,320
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: If they are selling 700 billion pesos a year,

2003
02:12:13,680 --> 02:12:16,820
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: and we are just targeting 10 billion so far,

2004
02:12:17,800 --> 02:12:19,060
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: napakalayo po ng depensya.

2005
02:12:19,060 --> 02:12:25,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: May I intercut you there, Mr. Chairman?

2006
02:12:25,560 --> 02:12:29,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Could it be the reason why mahina po ang sales natin?

2007
02:12:29,240 --> 02:12:35,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kasi yung mga off-track betting stations natin ay hindi masyadong kagandahan ng lugar.

2008
02:12:35,500 --> 02:12:36,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Unlike in Japan.

2009
02:12:37,080 --> 02:12:40,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I've been there to Japan, talagang malalaking building po.

2010
02:12:40,500 --> 02:12:41,020
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tama po kayo.

2011
02:12:41,360 --> 02:12:43,960
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Exactly. Air-conditioned.

2012
02:12:43,960 --> 02:12:45,500
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ganon din po sa Korea.

2013
02:12:46,220 --> 02:12:48,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa atin po dito, yung OTV.

2014
02:12:48,720 --> 02:12:50,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Diyan sa isang karinderiya.

2015
02:12:50,240 --> 02:12:50,720
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tama po.

2016
02:12:50,720 --> 02:12:51,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Na napaka-init.

2017
02:12:52,020 --> 02:12:52,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Manunod ang TV.

2018
02:12:53,020 --> 02:12:54,040
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ganito kalaki lang po.

2019
02:12:54,180 --> 02:12:54,340
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tama.

2020
02:12:54,340 --> 02:12:55,300
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kailangan po mag-television.

2021
02:12:55,300 --> 02:12:55,860
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Teleskopyo.

2022
02:12:55,940 --> 02:12:56,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Para mapanood mo.

2023
02:12:57,140 --> 02:12:57,580
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tama po.

2024
02:12:57,600 --> 02:13:01,680
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pagkatapos pagbayaran, nakasimangot pa yung kahera pag nanalo.

2025
02:13:02,060 --> 02:13:03,320
Senator Erwin Tulfo: May tao po ako dati.

2026
02:13:03,940 --> 02:13:04,980
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yun ang trabaho.

2027
02:13:05,420 --> 02:13:06,760
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nagkakarera tuwing hapon.

2028
02:13:07,580 --> 02:13:09,980
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nagrereklamo dahil napakahaba pa ng pila.

2029
02:13:10,100 --> 02:13:11,460
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Doon po, systematic.

2030
02:13:12,160 --> 02:13:16,160
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pag saksak mo ng card, pag nanalo, bayad sa iyo.

2031
02:13:16,380 --> 02:13:16,660
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Dito.

2032
02:13:16,900 --> 02:13:18,800
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So I think there's a big difference.

2033
02:13:18,960 --> 02:13:21,660
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya gusto mo mangarera,

2150
02:17:36,940 --> 02:17:38,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: at yung Singapore, dahil

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: yung gobyerno nila, kailangan na nila

2152

2153
02:17:42,940 --> 02:17:44,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Malakas po ang karera nila, kaya nang nagsara sila,

2154
02:17:44,940 --> 02:17:46,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: wala silang lupa. So,

2155
02:17:46,940 --> 02:17:48,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: kinumberte nila sa bahay, kinumberte sa hospital.

02:25:52,940 --> 02:25:54,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: yung mga magbebet eh. Andito na sa Pilipinas eh.

2398
02:25:54,940 --> 02:25:56,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: It's a matter of

2399
02:25:56,940 --> 02:25:58,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: adjusting some taxes

2400
02:25:58,940 --> 02:26:00,940

02:26:04,940 --> 02:26:06,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: kung ma-adjust yung nirequest namin na

2404
02:26:06,940 --> 02:26:08,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: ibaba yung tax ng 5%, then

2405
02:26:08,940 --> 02:26:10,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: tataya na lahat yan. At mamamatay

2406

2407
02:26:12,940 --> 02:26:14,940

02:26:14,940 --> 02:26:16,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: kaya nirequest namin.

2409
02:26:16,940 --> 02:26:18,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Anyway,

2410
02:26:18,940 --> 02:26:20,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: sa financial performance po,

2411
02:26:20,940 --> 02:26:22,940

02:26:26,940 --> 02:26:28,940

2415
02:26:28,940 --> 02:26:30,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: na-trapos po yung karera ng December 31,

2416
02:26:30,940 --> 02:26:32,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: hindi na po namin magbibigay. So binigay

2480
02:28:48,940 --> 02:28:50,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: ibig sabihin parang 1,000 mahigit

2481
02:28:50,940 --> 02:28:52,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: sa bawat piso.

2482
02:28:52,940 --> 02:28:54,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, na-address po ba ninyo ito?

2483
02:28:54,940 --> 02:28:56,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: O kayo ba ito?

2484
02:28:56,940 --> 02:28:58,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: O sa GAB ba ito? Kaninong trabaho?

2485
02:28:58,940 --> 02:29:00,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Actually, sa amin po yan,

02:29:20,940 --> 02:29:22,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Lahat po nang hindi tinawagan

2497
02:29:22,940 --> 02:29:24,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: ng steward, kasi may mga steward po ang bawat club eh,

2498
02:29:24,940 --> 02:29:26,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: sa bawat karera sila tumatawag

2499
02:29:26,940 --> 02:29:28,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: para suspindihan. Mga hindi nila tinawag

2500
02:29:28,940 --> 02:29:30,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: o malintawag nila,

2501
02:29:30,940 --> 02:29:32,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nire-review namin yan, nagmamotopropyo kami

2502
02:29:32,940 --> 02:29:34,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: para imbestigahan yun.

2503
02:29:34,940 --> 02:29:36,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, para, for the last

2504
02:29:36,940 --> 02:29:38,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: 5 years,

2505
02:29:38,940 --> 02:29:40,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nakapag-ban na po kami ng hinete,

2506
02:29:40,940 --> 02:29:42,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nakapag-ban na po kami ng trainers,

2507
02:29:42,940 --> 02:29:44,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nakapag-ban na po kami ng handicapper, at marami na po kami

2508
02:29:44,940 --> 02:29:46,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: na suspindi.

2509
02:29:46,940 --> 02:29:48,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: 1 year, 6 months, so lahat po ng

2510
02:29:48,940 --> 02:29:50,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: violations, may corresponding suspension.

2511
02:29:50,940 --> 02:29:52,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Ito ba ang dahilan kung bakit

2512
02:29:52,940 --> 02:29:54,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: marami tayong mga

2513
02:29:54,940 --> 02:29:56,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: jockeys na nasa abroad na

2514
02:29:56,940 --> 02:29:58,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: sumasakay sa Hong Kong, sumasakay po

2515
02:29:58,940 --> 02:30:00,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: sa Japan.

2516
02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:03,060
Senator Erwin Tulfo: O sa Saudi, dahil suspendido sila dito sa atin?

2517
02:30:05,500 --> 02:30:12,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Or mas malaki ang bayad sa kanila ang riding fee? Magkano na po nga po ang riding fee natin dito?

2518
02:30:12,400 --> 02:30:18,920
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Nung nagsimula kami magmamuno ng komisyon, wala pong binibigay ang Philippine Racing Commission sa mga inete.

2519
02:30:19,760 --> 02:30:24,180
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Nagde-depende sila sa mga owner ng kabayo para bigyan sila ng riding fee.

2520
02:30:24,480 --> 02:30:29,120
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Ngayon po, actually ngayon, presently, nagbibigay kami ng 800 per ride.

2521
02:30:30,000 --> 02:30:30,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Win or lose?

2522
02:30:31,860 --> 02:30:32,480
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Win or lose.

2523
02:30:32,660 --> 02:30:32,900
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Ngayon,

2524
02:30:33,400 --> 02:30:36,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nakaka-apat siya na ride, so 800 times 4.

2525
02:30:36,500 --> 02:30:43,660
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Apo, ngayon, pagka-stake race po yan, pag 1 million ng premio, 1,000 per riding fee nila. Win or lose?

2526
02:30:44,160 --> 02:30:50,620
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Meron po kami 15 million race, presidential gold cup, in the name of our president, 15,000 per ride doon.

2527
02:30:51,040 --> 02:30:52,340
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: At win or lose din po yun.

2528
02:30:52,780 --> 02:30:56,660
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Ngayon, with our trust to digitalize our operation,

2529
02:30:57,480 --> 02:30:59,980
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: we ask all the jockeys to have their own,

2530
02:31:00,000 --> 02:31:00,660
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: ATM.

2531
02:31:00,660 --> 02:31:05,640
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: pagkating po ng Friday, nandun po sila sa ATM, kumukubra po sila doon before lunch.

2532
02:31:06,280 --> 02:31:11,560
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, the average income of the top 10 jockey today is,

2533
02:31:12,360 --> 02:31:17,280
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: yung 1 to 3 po, ma-average po sila 300 to 350,000 per month.

2534
02:31:18,120 --> 02:31:24,280
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Yung nandun po sa 7, 8, 9, 10, 150 to 200,000 per month.

2535
02:31:24,820 --> 02:31:27,680
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, I think nabibigyan po namin sila ng,

2536
02:31:27,680 --> 02:31:29,940
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: gusto namin po humigis sa inyo,

2537
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:31,740
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: ng audience, Mr. Kirno,

2538
02:31:32,300 --> 02:31:34,720
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: pagka after this, after this ano, after this.

2539
02:31:34,980 --> 02:31:38,820
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yung pagiging jockey po, I mean, it's a, ika nga, lucrative,

2540
02:31:39,080 --> 02:31:43,020
Senator Erwin Tulfo: dahil mataas po yung 300,000, di ba?

2541
02:31:43,100 --> 02:31:44,920
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Hindi po sila nakatapos ng pag-aaral,

2542
02:31:45,040 --> 02:31:47,760
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nakapag-train lang sila dahil sa Philippine Racing Commission Academy,

2543
02:31:48,220 --> 02:31:50,700
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: at ngayon po ay nabibigyan sila ng ganyang.

2544
02:31:50,860 --> 02:31:55,380
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pero meron naman po yata, ika nga, weight and height standard po.

2545
02:31:55,400 --> 02:31:55,820
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Meron po.

2546
02:31:55,820 --> 02:31:59,720
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi naman po pwedeng maging jockey na, kasi taas ko 5'11,

2547
02:32:00,000 --> 02:32:03,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kailangan mo siguro eh, 5'4 yata pinakamatangkad mo dyan.

2548
02:32:03,000 --> 02:32:06,280
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: 5'2, 5'3, 5'4, tapos po yung weight kinakailangan,

2549
02:32:06,420 --> 02:32:09,180
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: pag mag-uumpisa kang hinete, 52 kilos pababa.

2550
02:32:09,540 --> 02:32:10,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ah, okay.

2551
02:32:10,620 --> 02:32:13,500
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, naintindihan po namin yung kanilang pinagdadaanan,

2552
02:32:14,160 --> 02:32:17,260
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: dahil ang kabayo po, 450 kilos to 500 kilos ang kabayo,

2553
02:32:17,620 --> 02:32:20,800
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: at kung 52 kilos na sila, sila yung rume-renda rin sa kabayo.

2554
02:32:20,900 --> 02:32:24,120
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Hawak-hawak nila yung renda na nagkakontrol sa bibig ng kabayo

2555
02:32:24,120 --> 02:32:25,520
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: para patakbo yung kabayo.

2556
02:32:25,620 --> 02:32:28,400
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tumatakbo ng 70 kilometers per hour sa open air.

2557
02:32:28,940 --> 02:32:29,980
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Mahirap po yun, mahirap.

2558
02:32:30,000 --> 02:32:32,500
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Mahirap po yun, nakatapak lang sila sa bakal na maliit.

2559
02:32:32,900 --> 02:32:35,480
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, yun po yun, pero nabibiyayaan naman sila.

2560
02:32:35,600 --> 02:32:36,700
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Yung mga nag-upload po ng mga hinete.

2561
02:32:36,700 --> 02:32:43,100
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa mga pag nag-na-disgrasya po, nahulog, nagkasakit, nabalian,

2562
02:32:43,500 --> 02:32:45,360
Senator Erwin Tulfo: who pays for the hospitalization?

2563
02:32:45,380 --> 02:32:47,280
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Meron po kaming insurance, no? Insurance.

2564
02:32:47,480 --> 02:32:51,840
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: At the same time, may incentive po ang Jockeys Associations of the Philippines.

2565
02:32:53,040 --> 02:32:58,740
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Through the prices given, the share of prices given by Philippine Racing Commission,

2566
02:32:58,740 --> 02:33:04,760
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: nakaka-accumulate siya ng mga 12 to 14 million per year na kita nila.

2567
02:33:05,140 --> 02:33:09,320
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Kung di sila gumustuhan ng dalawang taon, meron siya mga 25 to 28 million.

2568
02:33:09,920 --> 02:33:14,000
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ito po, kunwari na nahulog itong Jockeys, sino pong magsushoulder na yun?

2569
02:33:14,100 --> 02:33:19,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Yung may-ari ng kabayo na sinasakyan niyo or Philracom ipapa-hospital po siya?

2570
02:33:19,220 --> 02:33:22,740
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Yung pong insurance, meron ko agad 300,000 to 350,000 sa insurance.

2571
02:33:23,260 --> 02:33:26,520
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tapos yung pong sinasabi kong budget na nakukuha nila,

2572
02:33:26,520 --> 02:33:29,740
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: doon po rin sila kumukuha ng additional na budget para dyan.

2573
02:33:30,400 --> 02:33:31,900
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Tapos yung mga may-ari po ng kabayo,

2574
02:33:33,280 --> 02:33:35,380
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: mga may-ayaman naman na may-ari, karamihan eh.

2575
02:33:35,780 --> 02:33:37,220
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So nagbibigay din po sila.

2576
02:33:38,500 --> 02:33:45,560
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Have you already addressed, sir, yung doubts ng mga bettors na may game-fixing po?

2577
02:33:46,300 --> 02:33:50,280
Senator Erwin Tulfo: How do you address that? Aside from mag-iimbestiga kayo,

2578
02:33:50,840 --> 02:33:54,600
Senator Erwin Tulfo: because uso-uso ito, about 10, 15 years ago,

2579
02:33:54,600 --> 02:33:59,400
Senator Erwin Tulfo: somebody taught me how to bet dito po sa horse racing,

2580
02:33:59,880 --> 02:34:01,420
Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga kasamahan ko dati sa media.

2581
02:34:04,180 --> 02:34:08,120
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Alam na alam niya ko eh, ito, denia ito, ito, nag-usap itong dalawang jockey na ito,

2582
02:34:08,200 --> 02:34:11,080
Senator Erwin Tulfo: kaya ganito, na paano ito?

2583
02:34:11,200 --> 02:34:13,480
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I mean, nabawasan na ba yan?

2584
02:34:13,920 --> 02:34:17,960
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Malaki na po ang kabukusan, comparado sa mga naka-down generation.

2585
02:34:18,520 --> 02:34:21,620
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Dahil nga sa pagigipit ng Philippine Racing Commission,

2586
02:34:22,260 --> 02:34:23,960
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: pagbibigay ng suspension doon sa mga hinete,

2587
02:34:24,600 --> 02:34:26,780
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: na medyo naliligaw ng landas,

2588
02:34:27,220 --> 02:34:29,520
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: at nangihinayin mo po yung mga hinete na mawalan sila.

2589
02:34:29,660 --> 02:34:31,880
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Kasi pag nasuspindi sila ng 6 months,

2590
02:34:31,960 --> 02:34:34,900
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: alam mo, 6 months, they're averaging 100,000 a month.

2591
02:34:35,560 --> 02:34:42,140
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, definitely, 600,000 for 6 months is a big loss to them and to their family.

2592
02:34:42,620 --> 02:34:49,980
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Kasi meron na po tayong, actually, yung law para sa illegal, ano, illegal, no?

2593
02:34:50,680 --> 02:34:51,340
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Game-fixing.

2594
02:34:51,420 --> 02:34:52,180
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Game-fixing po.

2595
02:34:52,340 --> 02:34:54,000
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Yun po yung pinaliliwag namin sa mga hinete,

2596
02:34:54,600 --> 02:34:55,160
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: mga trainers,

2597
02:34:55,620 --> 02:34:58,720
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: na pagka nahulihan sila talaga at nakaroon ng valid reason,

2598
02:34:59,300 --> 02:35:00,500
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: we are not just suspending them.

2599
02:35:01,000 --> 02:35:04,840
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: We are willing to elevate the case to the proper authority, the NBI,

2600
02:35:05,220 --> 02:35:07,800
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: for them to be filed a civil case to them.

2601
02:35:08,260 --> 02:35:09,460
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Kaya doon po sila natatakot.

2602
02:35:09,800 --> 02:35:13,720
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Naproba na po ng Senado yung game-fixing law, I think, 2 years ago.

2603
02:35:14,260 --> 02:35:16,140
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: So, yun po yung pinanalaban namin sa kanila.

2604
02:35:16,680 --> 02:35:19,760
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Aba kayo magluloko, dahil ito po i-apply namin.

2605
02:35:20,240 --> 02:35:21,920
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Hindi lang namin kayo sususpindi ng 1 year,

2606
02:35:21,920 --> 02:35:24,040
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: but i-elevate namin yung kaso,

2607
02:35:24,040 --> 02:35:27,020
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: doon sa proper government authority.

2608
02:35:27,360 --> 02:35:31,620
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nakikita niyo ba kung pinipigilan nung Jackie yung kanyang kabayo?

2609
02:35:31,800 --> 02:35:37,900
Senator Erwin Tulfo: I mean, instead of largahan niya, pipigilan niya kasi usong-uso dati ang gano'n.

2610
02:35:38,000 --> 02:35:41,940
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sasabihin ng mga manunood, pinipigilan o pinipigilan nung Jackie yung kabayo?

2611
02:35:42,040 --> 02:35:44,460
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Ngayon po, meron na po tayong introduced 3 years ago,

2612
02:35:45,080 --> 02:35:46,980
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: a drone shot, nasa taas po yung camera,

2687
02:40:50,840 --> 02:41:02,640
Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ano nga, OFW po sila, may mga bakasyon. Anong ginagawa ng Philracom para, I mean, yung mga magagaling, sasakay pa rin naman dito at hindi na pupupunta sa abroad?

2688
02:41:02,840 --> 02:41:12,640
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Actually, yung mga hinete na Pilipino ngayon na nag-aabroad, hindi po sila hinete doon. Exercise rider lang po sila doon. Hindi po sila jockey.

2689
02:41:12,840 --> 02:41:18,640
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Meron po yung jockey siguro mga in the last 5 or 10 years, siguro tatlo lang yung naging hinete doon.

2690
02:41:18,640 --> 02:41:26,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Jockey Bakaykay, jockey Zarate, jockey Abobo, no? Kunti lang po. Pero karamihan po sa kanila, exercise rider.

2691
02:41:26,640 --> 02:41:36,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Pero yun po, since for the last 5 years, tumaas ng tumaas ang, ang ano, ang premium rito because sa power assistance, no?

2692
02:41:36,640 --> 02:41:45,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Napagbigitan bumalik dito yung mga dating hinete yung naging exercise rider doon, dahil nakita nila, mas malaki pa yung kikitain nila dito compared sa abroad.

2693
02:41:45,640 --> 02:41:48,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Napakalaki ng tax doon sa abroad.

2694
02:41:48,640 --> 02:41:54,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Compared dito. So, bumabalik po. Marami na po bumabalik dito ng mga magaling hinete po.

02:41:54,640 --> 02:41:57,440
PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon: Saan? Siyempre, iba rin po yung kasama nila, yung pamilya nila dito.
