00:04:36.460 --> 00:04:37.300 Committee Secretary: Oh, wala pa siya. asr-000027 00:04:37.700 --> 00:04:41.600 Committee Secretary: From FDCP, we have Ms. Evita Fontanilla. asr-000028 00:04:42.300 -->

Erwin Tulfo: Thank you, Committee Secretary. asr-000032 00:04:56.260 --> 00:04:57.340 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Magandang umaga po sa ating lahat. asr-000033 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, asr-000034 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, asr-000035 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, asr-000036 00:05:21.580 --> 00:05:27.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: but they share one important responsibility, protecting the public, asr-000037 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. asr-000038 00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:38.640 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ang budget po ng pamahalaan ay pera po ng taong bayan. asr-000039 00:05:39.080 --> 00:05:39.800 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We all know that. asr-000040 00:05:40.520 --> 00:05:43.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya sa bawat pisong ilalaan natin sa mga ahensya ninyo, asr-000041 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. asr-000042 00:05:52.260 --> 00:05:56.140 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Let's tackle, first, the budget of the MTRCB. asr-000043 00:05:56.840 --> 00:05:57.060 Senator Erwin Tulfo: For MTRCB, we have... asr-000051 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. asr-000052 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. asr-000053 00:06:15.260 --> 00:06:22.620 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Today, Filipinos are consuming content not only through traditional television and cinema, asr-000054 00:06:22.620 --> 00:06:26.900 Senator Erwin Tulfo: but also through streaming platforms and various digital channels. asr-000055 00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:33.140 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Our children, in particular, have unprecedented access to content. asr-000056 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. asr-000057 00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:02.880 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Second, the Optical Media Board. asr-000058 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. asr-000059 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. asr-000060 00:07:19.460 --> 00:07:23.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: The media landscape has dramatically changed. asr-000061 00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:25.020 Senator Erwin Tulfo: CDs and DVDs... asr-000062 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. asr-000063 00:07:36.880 --> 00:07:38.740 Senator Erwin Tulfo: This raises an important question. asr-000064 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? asr-000065 00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:50.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We need to make sure that public funds are being used efficiently, asr-000066 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. asr-000067 00:07:57.660 --> 00:08:01.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Third, the Film Development Council of the Philippines. asr-000068 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. asr-000069 00:08:12.660 --> 00:08:19.460 Senator Erwin Tulfo: For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 311.74. asr-000070 00:08:20.140 --> 00:08:23.880 Senator Erwin Tulfo: The Philippine film industry is not merely an entertainment industry. asr-000071 00:08:23.880 --> 00:08:27.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: It is part of our cultural identity. asr-000072 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. asr-000073 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 asr-000074 00:08:44.740 --> 00:08:49.720 Senator Erwin Tulfo: who have demonstrated that we can compete internationally. asr-000075 00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:56.620 Senator Erwin Tulfo: But government support must translate into real opportunities for Filipino workers and filmmakers. asr-000076 00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:03.340 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We should therefore examine how FDCP's program are benefiting independent filmmakers, asr-000077 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. asr-000078 00:09:12.760 --> 00:09:16.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Finally, the Philippine Racing Commission or FILRACOM. asr-000079 00:09:16.700 --> 00:09:21.580 Senator Erwin Tulfo: For FILRACOM, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act, asr-000080 00:09:21.580 --> 00:09:26.580 Senator Erwin Tulfo: a total budget of 199.76 million pesos. asr-000082 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. asr-000083 00:09:34.540 --> 00:09:38.440 Senator Erwin Tulfo: The horse racing industry is not simply about betting or entertainment. asr-000084 00:09:39.160 --> 00:09:47.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: It involves breeders, trainers, jockeys, veterinarians, farm workers, racetrack employees, asr-000085 00:09:47.620 --> 00:09:51.500 Senator Erwin Tulfo: and thousands of families whose livelihoods are connected to the industry. asr-000086 00:09:51.500 --> 00:09:55.600 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ibig sabihin po, nakapagbibigay po siya ng trabaho. asr-000087 00:09:55.600 --> 00:10:00.020 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We therefore need to ensure that FILRACOM is effectively regulating the industry, asr-000088 00:10:00.680 --> 00:10:03.740 Senator Erwin Tulfo: protecting the integrity of horse racing, asr-000089 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. asr-000090 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, asr-000091 00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:21.720 Senator Erwin Tulfo: improving monitoring, modernize its system, asr-000092 00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:28.400 Senator Erwin Tulfo: and ensure transparency in the collection and utilization of racing revenues. asr-000096 00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:33.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: These four agencies operate in different sectors, but they face a common challenge. asr-000097 00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:38.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: The world is changing faster than our regulatory and support systems. asr-000098 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:43.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Horse racing is becoming more technologically driven. asr-000099 00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:47.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Media piracy is becoming increasingly digital. asr-000100 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:52.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Television and film consumption are moving toward online platforms. asr-000101 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:58.400 Senator Erwin Tulfo: And the creative economy is becoming increasingly global. asr-000107 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. asr-000108 00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:08.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We should ask more important questions like, asr-000109 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? asr-000110 00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:19.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Every allocation must have a corresponding public benefit. asr-000111 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:24.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We need stronger accountability, measurable outcomes, efficient use of resources, asr-000112 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:32.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: and programs that directly benefit Filipino workers, consumers, artists, and entrepreneurs. asr-000113 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, asr-000114 00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:41.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: buhay, trabaho at serbisyo publiko ang nakasalalay dito. asr-000115 00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:47.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Kaya ngayong deliberasyon, I look forward to hearing from your agencies, asr-000116 00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:53.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: your respective offices, their concrete plans, their accomplishments, their challenges, asr-000117 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 asr-000118 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:02.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: by the Filipino people will be put to good use. asr-000119 00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:04.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Maraming salamat po. asr-000120 00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:21.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay, on that note, let us proceed with the briefing proper. asr-000121 00:12:21.480 --> 00:12:22.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: For the orderly procedure, asr-000122 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: we will have the following chronology of budget presentation. asr-000123 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:30.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: First to present is the Movie and Television Review Classification Board, asr-000124 00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:35.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: MTRCB, followed by the OMB Optical Media Board, asr-000125 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:38.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: then the Film Development Council of the Philippines, asr-000126 00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:41.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: and last, the Philippine Racing Commission, or FILRACOM. asr-000127 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:44.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We will open the floor for queries or questions asr-000128 00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:48.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: after each presentation of the aforementioned agencies. asr-000129 00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:51.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: We now recognize Chairperson Lala Soto Antonio asr-000130 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:57.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: for

Well, I have asr-000333 00:29:52.260 --> 00:29:54.260 Senator Erwin Tulfo: several questions here for you, asr-000334 00:29:54.260 --> 00:29:56.260 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Chairwoman. asr-000335 00:29:56.260 --> 00:29:58.260 Senator Erwin Tulfo: First, asr-000336 00:29:58.260 --> 00:30:03.000 Senator Erwin Tulfo: on online regulation. asr-000337 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? asr-000338 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. asr-000339 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, asr-000340 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. asr-000341 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. asr-000342 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. asr-000343 00:31:20.340 --> 00:31:25.620 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Nakakagulat na lang, bigla na lang may kubot-kubot na babae dyan. asr-000344 00:31:26.040 --> 00:31:26.940 Senator Erwin Tulfo: And I didn't know that. asr-000345 00:31:27.060 --> 00:31:32.400 Senator Erwin Tulfo: A young man, my son, behind me was like looking also. asr-000346 00:31:32.660 --> 00:31:34.180 Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, I don't know. asr-000347 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. asr-000348 00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:47.640 Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, yun po yung tinatanong natin, can we do something about it? asr-000349 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? asr-000350 00:31:54.340 --> 00:31:55.820 Senator Erwin Tulfo: And when can you do that? asr-000351 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. asr-000352 00:32:04.700 --> 00:32:06.660 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Yes, the MTRCB can do it. asr-000353 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. asr-000354 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, asr-000355 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. asr-000356 00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:27.040 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I have observed. asr-000357 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, asr-000358 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 asr-000359 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 asr-000360 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, asr-000361 00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:56.880 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: their share. asr-000362 00:32:57.060 --> 00:32:59.140 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: So, there should be an answer. asr-000363 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 asr-000364 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. asr-000365 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, asr-000366 00:33:11.200 --> 00:33:12.880 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and they've been very cooperative. asr-000367 00:33:13.180 --> 00:33:14.400 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I'm happy to share, Mr. Chair. asr-000368 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, asr-000369 00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:22.020 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: I think it is faced globally. asr-000370 00:33:22.800 --> 00:33:26.840 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: We really need to reiterate that this regulation, asr-000371 00:33:27.060 --> 00:33:27.780 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: as possible, asr-000372 00:33:28.460 --> 00:33:32.800 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala?

Sotto-Antonio: Sure. asr-000389 00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:27.420 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Currently, Mr. Chairman, asr-000390 00:34:27.560 --> 00:34:30.140 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: it is not under the purview of the MTRCB asr-000391 00:34:30.140 --> 00:34:33.380 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: with regard to online gaming and video games asr-000392 00:34:33.380 --> 00:34:38.860 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala?

Sotto-Antonio: But we have explored asr-000394 00:34:40.460 --> 00:34:43.800 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala?

Sotto-Antonio: Committee of the asr-000510 00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:39.820 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: MTRCB asr-000511 00:39:39.820 --> 00:39:41.400 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: right now. asr-000512 00:39:42.440 --> 00:39:44.320 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And the Chairperson of the asr-000513 00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:46.200 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Committee is with me now. asr-000514 00:39:46.420 --> 00:39:48.100 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, I'd like to answer the question asr-000515 00:39:48.100 --> 00:39:48.580 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: first. asr-000516 00:39:49.820 --> 00:39:51.980 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The MTRCB has its own monitoring asr-000517 00:39:51.980 --> 00:39:54.180 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: inspection unit along with our asr-000518 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 asr-000519 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, asr-000520 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 asr-000521 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. asr-000522 00:40:18.620 --> 00:40:26.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Sa non-display or innocent display permit to exhibit, asr-000523 00:40:27.620 --> 00:40:31.420 Senator Erwin Tulfo: what are the common violations encountered during monitoring and inspections? asr-000524 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. asr-000525 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 asr-000526 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 asr-000527 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, asr-000528 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? asr-000529 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 asr-000530 00:41:13.560 --> 00:41:17.760 Senator Erwin Tulfo: from exercising the very appeal process? asr-000531 00:41:18.060 --> 00:41:20.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: So, what are the policies that the MTRCB supposed to provide? asr-000532 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. asr-000533 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, asr-000534 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. asr-000535 00:41:45.900 --> 00:41:47.780 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: And it would not be detrimental to... asr-000536 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 asr-000537 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. asr-000538 00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:11.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Dito naman po tayo moving sa live television shows. asr-000539 00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:16.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Following the recent It's Showtime controversy yung memory mar segment, asr-000540 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 asr-000541 00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:31.920 Senator Erwin Tulfo: rather than simply penalizing programs after the fact? asr-000542 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. asr-000543 00:42:41.600 --> 00:42:43.840 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: Good morning, Senator. asr-000544 00:42:44.600 --> 00:42:46.340 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: As regards to the memory mar segment, asr-000545 00:42:46.360 --> 00:42:52.840 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: we called the production for an adjugatory hearing. asr-000546 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. asr-000547 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. asr-000548 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. asr-000549 00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:19.380 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: In case of live violations. asr-000550 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, asr-000551 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. asr-000552 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. asr-000553 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, asr-000554 00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:45.740 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: but to ensure that we... asr-000555 00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:48.200 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: protect viewers from asr-000556 00:43:48.200 --> 00:43:49.340 MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.: inappropriate materials. asr-000557 00:43:50.300 --> 00:43:52.400 Senator Erwin Tulfo: If I may recall, when I was asr-000558 00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:54.320 Senator Erwin Tulfo: still on TV, when we had asr-000559 00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:56.040 Senator Erwin Tulfo: a program before, asr-000560 00:43:57.400 --> 00:43:58.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: may plan ng asr-000561 00:43:58.240 --> 00:44:00.340 Senator Erwin Tulfo: MTRCB, I know it's not during asr-000562 00:44:00.340 --> 00:44:02.320 Senator Erwin Tulfo: your watch yet, na parang asr-000563 00:44:02.320 --> 00:44:04.220 Senator Erwin Tulfo: pag mga live programs, asr-000564 00:44:04.340 --> 00:44:06.140 Senator Erwin Tulfo: gagawing Tape Us Live para yung asr-000565 00:44:06.140 --> 00:44:08.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: first segment, mapanood na asr-000566 00:44:08.200 --> 00:44:09.340 Senator Erwin Tulfo: ng mga asr-000567 00:44:09.340 --> 00:44:11.580 Senator Erwin Tulfo: sensors natin. asr-000568 00:44:12.220 --> 00:44:14.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Makita na maiwasan kung nagmura, asr-000569 00:44:14.200 --> 00:44:15.700 Senator Erwin Tulfo: kung ano, parang asr-000570 00:44:15.700 --> 00:44:18.060 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Tape Us Live.

I think asr-000577 00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.160 Senator Erwin Tulfo: nagawa din dati yun. Pero whatever happened asr-000578 00:44:32.160 --> 00:44:34.300 Senator Erwin Tulfo: to that? Mr. Chairman, asr-000579 00:44:34.480 --> 00:44:36.140 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: that's something that I did not asr-000580 00:44:36.140 --> 00:44:38.280 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: encounter during my term asr-000581 00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:40.500 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: in the MTRCB. asr-000582 00:44:40.920 --> 00:44:42.220 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: However, these asr-000583 00:44:42.220 --> 00:44:44.520 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: are suggested asr-000584 00:44:44.520 --> 00:44:45.600 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: as well to asr-000585 00:44:45.600 --> 00:44:47.760 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: the live shows. But it's not up asr-000586 00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:49.500 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: to the MTRCB. We cannot asr-000587 00:44:49.500 --> 00:44:50.920 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: impose on the producers asr-000588 00:44:50.920 --> 00:44:53.600 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: and the shows on the asr-000589 00:44:53.600 --> 00:44:55.600 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: type of permit that they want, whether it be asr-000590 00:44:55.600 --> 00:44:57.600 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: taped or lived or Tape Us Live. asr-000591 00:44:57.700 --> 00:44:58.620 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: It would be on them. asr-000592 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? asr-000593 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? asr-000594 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. asr-000595 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. asr-000596 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... asr-000597 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. asr-000598 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. asr-000599 00:46:39.400 --> 00:46:40.900 Senator Erwin Tulfo: So how do you balance that? asr-000600 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... asr-000601 00:46:49.100 --> 00:46:57.100 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Anak na kapareho, nilalait, tinutukso, putot, itim, bungi, buduling. How is that? asr-000602 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. asr-000603 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. asr-000604 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? asr-000605 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. asr-000606 00:47:46.360 --> 00:47:48.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: So kaya nga yung dapat yung... asr-000607 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. asr-000608 00:47:57.920 --> 00:48:04.500 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Anyway, moving forward, I have a few more questions, Chairperson Antonio. asr-000609 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? asr-000610 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. asr-000611 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. asr-000612 00:48:46.380 --> 00:48:48.220 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: To be able to access... asr-000614 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. asr-000615 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? asr-000616 00:49:14.980 --> 00:49:16.300 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Every year, Mr. Chairman. asr-000617 00:49:16.300 --> 00:49:16.660 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Every year. asr-000618 00:49:16.660 --> 00:49:17.560 Senator Erwin Tulfo: You exceed our target. asr-000619 00:49:17.560 --> 00:49:18.020 Senator Erwin Tulfo: You exceed. asr-000620 00:49:18.440 --> 00:49:21.500 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Who sets the target for revenues? asr-000621 00:49:21.720 --> 00:49:22.700 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: The DBM sets the target. asr-000622 00:49:22.700 --> 00:49:23.120 Senator Erwin Tulfo: The DBM. asr-000623 00:49:23.860 --> 00:49:26.460 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Well, that's very good. Very good answer. asr-000624 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? asr-000625 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. asr-000626 00:49:44.600 --> 00:49:48.200 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: As you know, the board reviews hundreds. asr-000627 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. asr-000628 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. asr-000629 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. asr-000630 00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:20.800 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: For this to happen. asr-000631 00:50:21.660 --> 00:50:24.320 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Well, we'll see about that. asr-000632 00:50:25.700 --> 00:50:27.800 Senator Erwin Tulfo: What about the expansion of office? asr-000633 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. asr-000634 00:50:33.380 --> 00:50:34.900 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: My staff already in the office. asr-000635 00:50:35.160 --> 00:50:36.060 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lahat po ba? Sorry, Mama. asr-000636 00:50:36.460 --> 00:50:41.020 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Lahat po ba kayo nag-office doon sa Timog, Quezon City? asr-000637 00:50:41.580 --> 00:50:44.140 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Sa maliit na three floors na building. asr-000638 00:50:44.600 --> 00:50:46.760 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: In fact, my staff are already in the hallway. asr-000639 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. asr-000640 00:50:57.280 --> 00:50:58.500 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay. Is that all? asr-000641 00:51:01.040 --> 00:51:02.540 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: Yes, Mr. Chairman. asr-000642 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, asr-000643 00:51:13.720 --> 00:51:16.740 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio: which we could further study after research. asr-000644 00:51:16.760 --> 00:51:18.580 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Thank you. asr-000645 00:51:18.820 --> 00:51:19.860 MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala?

Philippines. asr-001283 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, asr-001284 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, asr-001285 01:36:25.320 --> 01:36:27.660 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: 16 pesos goes back to the economy. asr-001286 01:36:28.140 --> 01:36:31.620 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the local production grant that we are providing, asr-001287 01:36:31.800 --> 01:36:34.520 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: there is a 1 is to 6 economic return ratio, asr-001288 01:36:34.680 --> 01:36:39.020 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: meaning 1 peso grant, 6 pesos goes back to the economy. asr-001289 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. asr-001290 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, asr-001291 01:36:52.440 --> 01:36:54.400 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: as well as the Special Projects Unit, asr-001292 01:36:55.320 --> 01:36:57.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have a budget of 6.5 million. asr-001293 01:36:57.320 --> 01:36:59.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Policy and Planning Division, asr-001294 01:36:59.320 --> 01:37:01.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 6.5 million budget. asr-001295 01:37:01.320 --> 01:37:03.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: For the Communications Unit, asr-001296 01:37:03.320 --> 01:37:05.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we have 1.8 million budget. asr-001297 01:37:05.320 --> 01:37:07.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And again, for the Philippine Film Archives, asr-001298 01:37:07.320 --> 01:37:09.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: you only have 6.2 million budget. asr-001299 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. asr-001300 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. asr-001301 01:37:18.320 --> 01:37:20.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And of course, we have a wish list. asr-001302 01:37:20.320 --> 01:37:24.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So basically, we have cut down some of our programs asr-001303 01:37:24.080 --> 01:37:27.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: that are already growing. asr-001304 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. asr-001305 01:37:36.080 --> 01:37:40.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: On the list is the film incentives. asr-001306 01:37:42.080 --> 01:37:46.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We have a request of 109.8 million. asr-001307 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. asr-001308 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. asr-001309 01:37:59.080 --> 01:38:02.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the 2027 Film Location Incentive Programs, asr-001310 01:38:02.080 --> 01:38:05.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we would like to request additional 120 million asr-001311 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, asr-001312 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. asr-001313 01:38:21.080 --> 01:38:22.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And asr-001314 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. asr-001315 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 asr-001316 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. asr-001317 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, asr-001318 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. asr-001319 01:38:50.080 --> 01:38:58.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then we have quite a lot of requests. asr-001320 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, asr-001321 01:39:06.080 --> 01:39:10.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: World Day for Audiovisual Heritage and Pelikula ng Bayan Caravan, asr-001322 01:39:10.080 --> 01:39:12.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: documentado in Asian cinema. asr-001323 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, asr-001324 01:39:17.080 --> 01:39:19.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we are going around different towns. asr-001325 01:39:19.080 --> 01:39:24.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and cities in the country to showcase various films, asr-001326 01:39:24.080 --> 01:39:27.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: particularly classic films that we have restored. asr-001327 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. asr-001328 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. asr-001329 01:39:40.080 --> 01:39:49.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then additional value of 11 million for features, asr-001330 01:39:49.080 --> 01:39:56.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: film love, documentary love, asr-001331 01:39:56.080 --> 01:39:58.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: bring in here Filipino, asr-001332 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. asr-001333 01:40:02.080 --> 01:40:07.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And OneFlix Cinemathèque Integrated Marketing Promotions, 2 million. asr-001334 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. asr-001335 01:40:13.080 --> 01:40:17.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the Group 2 list of our wish list. asr-001336 01:40:17.080 --> 01:40:22.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So the first request is amounting to 451,000 asr-001337 01:40:22.080 --> 01:40:25.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the procurement of preservation supplies asr-001338 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 asr-001339 01:40:31.080 --> 01:40:34.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because with the advent of continuous growing of technology, asr-001340 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 asr-001341 01:40:37.080 --> 01:40:41.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the preservation and archiving facilities that we have. asr-001342 01:40:41.080 --> 01:40:46.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And another 50 million for the restoration of 59 titles asr-001343 01:40:46.080 --> 01:40:48.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for 2027. asr-001344 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. asr-001345 01:40:56.080 --> 01:41:00.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So these are of historical importance to the country asr-001346 01:41:00.080 --> 01:41:04.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and some of it really necessitates or time of the essence asr-001347 01:41:04.080 --> 01:41:08.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because the film is already deteriorating. asr-001348 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. asr-001349 01:41:16.080 --> 01:41:20.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then lastly for the General Management Services, asr-001350 01:41:20.080 --> 01:41:22.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: we are also requesting additional 2 million asr-001351 01:41:22.080 --> 01:41:26.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for the distributed antenna system for Philippine Film Heritage Building asr-001352 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. asr-001353 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 asr-001354 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 asr-001355 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. asr-001356 01:41:44.080 --> 01:41:49.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And another 2 million for the quality ISO certification asr-001357 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. asr-001358 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 asr-001359 01:41:58.080 --> 01:42:01.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: CISO next year amounting to 3.2 million. asr-001360 01:42:01.080 --> 01:42:06.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: It's important because it allows the young generation of filmmakers asr-001361 01:42:06.080 --> 01:42:13.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: to have access to discussions among key personalities in the industry asr-001362 01:42:13.080 --> 01:42:15.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or pillars of the industry. asr-001363 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 asr-001364 01:42:21.080 --> 01:42:23.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: for Cinemathèque centers. asr-001365 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 asr-001366 01:42:30.080 --> 01:42:33.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because right now because of its design, asr-001367 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. asr-001368 01:42:38.080 --> 01:42:42.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So we are also requesting additional 1.5 million for that. asr-001369 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. asr-001370 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. asr-001371 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. asr-001372 01:43:04.080 --> 01:43:07.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Just some points of clarification why the Cinemathèque asr-001373 01:43:07.080 --> 01:43:09.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Oh, I'm sorry. asr-001374 01:43:09.080 --> 01:43:12.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Just a point of clarification why the Cinemathèque. asr-001375 01:43:12.080 --> 01:43:17.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: The Cinemathèque are micro cinemas which are located in various provinces. asr-001376 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. asr-001377 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 asr-001378 01:43:28.080 --> 01:43:31.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: when this administration would have to step down asr-001379 01:43:31.080 --> 01:43:34.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: being coterminous with the present administration. asr-001380 01:43:34.080 --> 01:43:35.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Why the Cinemathèque? asr-001381 01:43:35.080 --> 01:43:38.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Because these are not only venues for showing films asr-001382 01:43:38.080 --> 01:43:40.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: but it has become also a cultural hub asr-001383 01:43:40.080 --> 01:43:42.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: for regional filmmakers to get together asr-001384 01:43:42.080 --> 01:43:45.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and have their activities in these various venues. asr-001385 01:43:45.080 --> 01:43:48.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So it's almost an imperative, it's almost a need asr-001386 01:43:48.080 --> 01:43:56.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: for, you know, to provide the venue for regional filmmakers asr-001387 01:43:56.080 --> 01:44:00.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: as well as cinemathèque asr-001388 01:44:00.080 --> 01:44:06.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to see the problem asr-001389 01:44:10.080 --> 01:44:16.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to see the problem of digitalization. asr-001390 01:44:16.080 --> 01:44:19.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I've done over 100 films as a director asr-001391 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. asr-001392 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 asr-001393 01:44:30.080 --> 01:44:33.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the level of deterioration is very quick. asr-001394 01:44:33.080 --> 01:44:37.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Now, unless we are able to preserve these, to digitize these asr-001395 01:44:37.080 --> 01:44:39.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and preserve these immediately asr-001396 01:44:39.080 --> 01:44:42.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: we might even lose more films. asr-001397 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 asr-001398 01:44:47.080 --> 01:44:50.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: were not recovered here in our country but abroad. asr-001399 01:44:50.080 --> 01:44:53.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So these are some major priorities. asr-001400 01:44:53.080 --> 01:44:57.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We also have a priority, Mr. Chairman, in terms of incentives. asr-001401 01:44:57.080 --> 01:45:00.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Mapakatotoo na tayo na hindi natin kayang pantayan ang incentives asr-001402 01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:03.920 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na binibigay ng ibang bansa dahil sila ay mas mayaman asr-001403 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 asr-001404 01:45:07.680 --> 01:45:11.020 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: para mahingkayat ang mga tao na mag-shoot sa kanila. asr-001405 01:45:11.480 --> 01:45:15.340 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang ating tanging panlawan lamang ay magagaling ang mga Pilipino asr-001406 01:45:15.340 --> 01:45:19.120 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: sa kanilang ginagawa at tayo ay nagsasalita ng wikang Ingles. asr-001407 01:45:19.420 --> 01:45:22.140 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya mas madali para sa foreigners na pumunta dito. asr-001408 01:45:22.780 --> 01:45:27.880 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ang laki-laking economic benefit kapag nagsushoot dito ang mga foreigners. asr-001409 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. asr-001410 01:45:32.440 --> 01:45:33.700 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: May exchange of technology. asr-001411 01:45:34.200 --> 01:45:37.920 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At ikalawa, ang daming ancillary businesses na nakikinabang asr-001412 01:45:37.920 --> 01:45:39.440 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: tuwing may nagsushooting dito. asr-001413 01:45:41.220 --> 01:45:44.820 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Wishful thinking ito na sana mas matulungan at sana mas madagdagan asr-001414 01:45:44.820 --> 01:45:46.400 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang incentives na magbibigay natin. asr-001415 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 asr-001416 01:45:50.300 --> 01:45:52.060 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: as to where they would put the tax pay. asr-001417 01:45:52.080 --> 01:45:54.640 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Mr. Chairman, let me cut in. asr-001418 01:45:56.640 --> 01:45:57.640 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Could it be? asr-001419 01:45:57.880 --> 01:46:01.680 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Could it be na incentives lang kaya hindi tayo makapaghikay? asr-001420 01:46:01.780 --> 01:46:03.860 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Or there may be other reasons. asr-001421 01:46:04.000 --> 01:46:08.100 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Are you also looking to the fact na maaring peace and order asr-001422 01:46:08.100 --> 01:46:12.400 Senator Erwin Tulfo: kaya ayaw pumunta dito ng mga artista or political turmoil asr-001423 01:46:12.400 --> 01:46:17.460 Senator Erwin Tulfo: na medyo turn off para sa kanila, na medyo magulo tayo dito, asr-001424 01:46:17.640 --> 01:46:22.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: nag-aaway, may mga kinasuhan ng mga opisyal ng gobyerno. asr-001425 01:46:22.620 --> 01:46:26.320 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Couldn't be some of those are some of the reasons kung bakit asr-001426 01:46:26.320 --> 01:46:27.640 Senator Erwin Tulfo: na turn off sila. asr-001427 01:46:27.880 --> 01:46:29.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Bakit ako magsushoot dyan? asr-001428 01:46:29.460 --> 01:46:34.060 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Rally dito, rally doon, sigawan dito, yung vicepresidente nila nandoon, asr-001429 01:46:34.140 --> 01:46:39.680 Senator Erwin Tulfo: kinakasuhan, yung mga opisyal nila nakakulong, ilang mga miyembro na senado, asr-001430 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, asr-001431 01:46:46.520 --> 01:46:48.200 Senator Erwin Tulfo: like Thailand, tahimik siya. asr-001432 01:46:48.640 --> 01:46:52.040 Senator Erwin Tulfo: E dito lang tayo kaysa baka mapunta tayo, madamay tayo sa gulo. asr-001433 01:46:52.040 --> 01:46:56.240 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi niyo ba naisip yan na maaring hindi lang doon sa incentive? asr-001434 01:46:57.000 --> 01:46:57.480 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Ano? asr-001435 01:46:57.480 --> 01:46:58.900 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Naka-factor in na rin po yun. asr-001436 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, asr-001437 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 asr-001438 01:47:07.260 --> 01:47:10.480 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: at hinahighlight ng balita ay isang factor yan. asr-001439 01:47:10.840 --> 01:47:14.020 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero ang napaka katakataka, hindi naman katakataka, asr-001440 01:47:14.160 --> 01:47:16.740 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang lalo nakakalakas ng loob, Mr. Chair, asr-001441 01:47:17.240 --> 01:47:18.720 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: is na dito pa rin sila pumupunta. asr-001442 01:47:19.420 --> 01:47:22.100 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, in spite and despite, dito pa rin sila pumupunta. asr-001443 01:47:22.100 --> 01:47:26.200 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Pero hindi po natin mapapagkaila na ang perception nila ng Pilipinas asr-001444 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 asr-001445 01:47:29.620 --> 01:47:31.440 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: but the entire business setup. asr-001446 01:47:32.080 --> 01:47:33.580 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, naka-factor in po yan. asr-001447 01:47:34.140 --> 01:47:34.400 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay. asr-001448 01:47:35.280 --> 01:47:39.100 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Okay, my next question will be asr-001449 01:47:39.820 --> 01:47:46.420 Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung hinihingi po ninyong proposed budget na 425 million, ano po, asr-001450 01:47:47.140 --> 01:47:49.880 Senator Erwin Tulfo: pero 314 million lamang nasa NEP. asr-001451 01:47:50.980 --> 01:47:54.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: At meron pa kayong 311 million na sa wish list. asr-001452 01:47:54.800 --> 01:47:55.320 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Alright, so, asr-001453 01:47:55.320 --> 01:47:57.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: if kukumputin ho ninyo yan, asr-001454 01:47:58.060 --> 01:48:01.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: parang bakit po umahabot sa 625 million asr-001455 01:48:01.360 --> 01:48:03.260 Senator Erwin Tulfo: ang inyong total funding requirement asr-001456 01:48:03.260 --> 01:48:08.340 Senator Erwin Tulfo: kung 425 million lamang ang inyong original proposal, Ms. Rachel? asr-001457 01:48:08.760 --> 01:48:12.260 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Actually po, one is for the film restoration. asr-001458 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 asr-001459 01:48:19.100 --> 01:48:21.020 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: which is amounting to 50 million. asr-001460 01:48:21.300 --> 01:48:24.960 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: Just recently, when they were able to identify, asr-001461 01:48:25.320 --> 01:48:25.960 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: the titles. asr-001462 01:48:26.460 --> 01:48:30.420 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And that was even before the budget call of the DBM asr-001463 01:48:30.420 --> 01:48:35.800 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: was conducted early January or January this year. asr-001464 01:48:35.800 --> 01:48:39.080 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And then for the additional budget, again, asr-001465 01:48:39.260 --> 01:48:40.640 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: is from the incentives asr-001466 01:48:40.640 --> 01:48:44.420 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because the cycle 2 opened last September asr-001467 01:48:44.420 --> 01:48:47.240 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and several film productions, asr-001468 01:48:47.580 --> 01:48:49.760 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: both for foreign and local, have applied. asr-001469 01:48:50.400 --> 01:48:52.100 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And they're all good projects. asr-001470 01:48:52.640 --> 01:48:54.800 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: And based on their application, asr-001471 01:48:55.320 --> 01:48:59.480 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: again, they are spending a lot here in the country. asr-001472 01:48:59.760 --> 01:49:04.260 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So, we're just wondering if we can give more asr-001473 01:49:04.260 --> 01:49:08.860 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: or we can accept more applications asr-001474 01:49:08.860 --> 01:49:12.120 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: and approve their applications for the incentives asr-001475 01:49:12.120 --> 01:49:15.820 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: because they might look for another country asr-001476 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. asr-001477 01:49:20.440 --> 01:49:24.320 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: We just finalized the deliberation last month. asr-001478 01:49:24.320 --> 01:49:24.760 FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna: So, asr-001479 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. asr-001480 01:49:31.600 --> 01:49:33.260 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: If I can add to that, Mr. Chair, asr-001481 01:49:33.520 --> 01:49:35.700 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: kasalanan ko yung isa yun sa preservation asr-001482 01:49:35.700 --> 01:49:39.320 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: kasi pinahanap ko kung ano pa yung mga magagandang pelikula asr-001483 01:49:39.320 --> 01:49:41.840 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na maa-access natin na pwedeng ma-restore. asr-001484 01:49:42.180 --> 01:49:43.780 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: And it takes time to find all these asr-001485 01:49:43.780 --> 01:49:45.080 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: until we came up with a list na, asr-001486 01:49:45.160 --> 01:49:46.260 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ay, ito pa lang, restorable. asr-001487 01:49:46.660 --> 01:49:48.240 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya hindi na-factor in yun sa una. asr-001488 01:49:48.360 --> 01:49:50.440 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At sa kakalawa, maganda po yung problema na asr-001489 01:49:50.440 --> 01:49:51.840 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang dami-dami nag-a-apply asr-001490 01:49:51.840 --> 01:49:54.880 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: na kumuha ng mga grants and incentives asr-001491 01:49:54.880 --> 01:49:57.000 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to be able to shoot here in the country asr-001492 01:49:57.000 --> 01:49:57.920 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and at the same time asr-001493 01:49:57.920 --> 01:50:00.560 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to have Philippine film workers asr-001494 01:50:00.560 --> 01:50:02.920 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: join in in these productions. asr-001495 01:50:03.120 --> 01:50:04.440 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: So, it's a good problem asr-001496 01:50:04.440 --> 01:50:06.760 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: which eventually became a budgetary problem. asr-001497 01:50:06.760 --> 01:50:09.440 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Going back to film restoration, asr-001498 01:50:10.420 --> 01:50:12.780 Senator Erwin Tulfo: how does the FDCP ensure asr-001499 01:50:12.780 --> 01:50:16.560 Senator Erwin Tulfo: that restoring a project or a film asr-001500 01:50:16.560 --> 01:50:19.520 Senator Erwin Tulfo: is technically feasible and cost-effective asr-001501 01:50:19.520 --> 01:50:22.360 Senator Erwin Tulfo: before public funds are allocated? asr-001502 01:50:22.520 --> 01:50:23.680 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Baka di naman natin mabawi. asr-001503 01:50:23.840 --> 01:50:24.860 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Baka wala nang, asr-001504 01:50:24.880 --> 01:50:25.460 Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung mga interest, asr-001505 01:50:25.560 --> 01:50:27.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: yung mga black and white, asr-001506 01:50:27.660 --> 01:50:28.880 Senator Erwin Tulfo: naging brown and white, asr-001507 01:50:29.020 --> 01:50:30.020 Senator Erwin Tulfo: may manunood pa ba noon? asr-001508 01:50:30.120 --> 01:50:31.960 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Hindi na kilala ng mga kabataan ngayon, asr-001509 01:50:32.080 --> 01:50:34.180 Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga nangamatay na yung mga tao na yun. asr-001510 01:50:34.680 --> 01:50:37.680 Senator Erwin Tulfo: And baka boring yung sa inyo, asr-001511 01:50:37.760 --> 01:50:39.260 Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga film directors, of course. asr-001512 01:50:39.420 --> 01:50:40.520 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Meron po kayong keen, asr-001513 01:50:40.620 --> 01:50:42.120 Senator Erwin Tulfo: may eye po kayo na maganda ito. asr-001514 01:50:42.240 --> 01:50:44.280 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pero sa ordinary viewer, asr-001515 01:50:44.500 --> 01:50:45.660 Senator Erwin Tulfo: lalo mga kabataan ngayon, asr-001516 01:50:45.780 --> 01:50:47.800 Senator Erwin Tulfo: mga Gen Z, Gen X, Gen Y, asr-001517 01:50:48.480 --> 01:50:53.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: eh, hindi sa kanila ikang kaakit-akit. asr-001518 01:50:54.000 --> 01:50:54.860 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I'll answer. asr-001519 01:50:54.880 --> 01:50:56.380 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I'll answer that in two points, Mr. Chair. asr-001520 01:50:56.480 --> 01:50:58.860 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Firstly, before we restore a film, asr-001521 01:50:59.000 --> 01:51:01.200 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: we make sure that the film is still restorable. asr-001522 01:51:01.840 --> 01:51:02.060 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay? asr-001523 01:51:02.200 --> 01:51:03.880 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: We have technical people assessing asr-001524 01:51:03.880 --> 01:51:05.040 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the state of the negative asr-001525 01:51:05.040 --> 01:51:06.060 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: or the state of the print asr-001526 01:51:06.060 --> 01:51:07.600 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: if it is still accessible asr-001527 01:51:07.600 --> 01:51:09.760 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: or it is still restorable. asr-001528 01:51:11.260 --> 01:51:13.200 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: There are certain cases in which asr-001529 01:51:13.200 --> 01:51:15.380 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: the film is just so damaged asr-001530 01:51:15.380 --> 01:51:17.140 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: that we don't pursue it anymore asr-001531 01:51:17.140 --> 01:51:19.260 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: because it's going to cause an arm and a leg asr-001532 01:51:19.260 --> 01:51:20.700 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: and your next reincarnation asr-001533 01:51:20.700 --> 01:51:22.780 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: in order to completely restore it. asr-001534 01:51:22.780 --> 01:51:23.500 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ikalawa, asr-001535 01:51:23.500 --> 01:51:25.200 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: about the new generation asr-001536 01:51:25.200 --> 01:51:26.360 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: appreciating old films. asr-001537 01:51:26.480 --> 01:51:28.060 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: I will use an example of what happened asr-001538 01:51:28.060 --> 01:51:29.540 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: last September 4 asr-001539 01:51:29.540 --> 01:51:30.660 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: at the opening of the asr-001540 01:51:30.660 --> 01:51:32.040 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Philippine Film Industry Month. asr-001541 01:51:32.360 --> 01:51:33.200 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: For the first time, asr-001542 01:51:33.460 --> 01:51:36.360 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang mga Gen Z at Gen Y and Gen X asr-001543 01:51:36.360 --> 01:51:37.500 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: napanood ang tinimbangka, asr-001544 01:51:38.280 --> 01:51:38.860 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ngunit kulang. asr-001545 01:51:39.340 --> 01:51:40.620 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: At nagulat sila. asr-001546 01:51:40.960 --> 01:51:41.860 Senator Erwin Tulfo: Pero, Mr. Chairman, asr-001547 01:51:41.980 --> 01:51:44.040 Senator Erwin Tulfo: hindi kayo, baka mga yung nanood na yun asr-001548 01:51:44.040 --> 01:51:45.500 Senator Erwin Tulfo: ay mga estudyante asr-001549 01:51:46.060 --> 01:51:47.540 Senator Erwin Tulfo: na mga ang courses nila asr-001550 01:51:47.540 --> 01:51:48.520 Senator Erwin Tulfo: ay nasa film. asr-001551 01:51:48.660 --> 01:51:49.680 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Ay, ay, hindi po. asr-001552 01:51:49.920 --> 01:51:50.460 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Hindi po. asr-001553 01:51:50.520 --> 01:51:52.560 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: It was a real cross-section of people. asr-001554 01:51:52.560 --> 01:51:53.420 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: And as a matter, asr-001555 01:51:53.500 --> 01:51:53.860 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: a real fact, asr-001556 01:51:54.120 --> 01:51:55.160 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: may mga request kami asr-001557 01:51:55.160 --> 01:51:57.100 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: to show the film commercially. asr-001558 01:51:57.720 --> 01:51:59.100 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Okay, to make it more accessible asr-001559 01:51:59.100 --> 01:52:00.680 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: in commercial cinemas. asr-001560 01:52:01.140 --> 01:52:01.820 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kaya lang, asr-001561 01:52:02.140 --> 01:52:03.300 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ito, ang tragedy niyan, asr-001562 01:52:03.720 --> 01:52:05.660 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: yung arming agreement asr-001563 01:52:05.660 --> 01:52:06.980 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: sa showing ng tinimbang asr-001564 01:52:06.980 --> 01:52:08.440 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: has to be non-commercial. asr-001565 01:52:08.860 --> 01:52:10.960 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: Kasi hindi na pag-aari ng Pilipinas asr-001566 01:52:10.960 --> 01:52:11.820 FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes: ang tinimbang.
