Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the need for a more allocation for the programs being enumerated earlier. 316 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:38,940 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: The Department acknowledges that a lower budget will also affect the performance of the whole Department. 317 00:53:39,260 --> 00:53:54,740 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: But again, the Department leaves this to the members of this August body to give the appropriate support to be given to the Department, Mr. Speaker, Your Honor. 318 00:53:54,740 --> 00:54:08,080 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So ang sabi po ng sponsor, Mr. Speaker, ay yes, bumaba, katulad nung binanggit natin, ang proposed funding for these major programs and projects. 319 00:54:09,260 --> 00:54:18,060 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: However, halos pareho lang daw kung ikukumpara ang NEP ng 2026 at NEP ng 2027. 320 00:54:18,060 --> 00:54:20,880 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So kongreso ang nagdagdag. 321 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:28,080 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: At ngayon, ay tama po ba ang intindi ko, Madam Speaker, Mr. Speaker, 322 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:37,620 Rep.

So nakalimutan kang banggitin, mga significant cuts dito, for the record, 326 00:54:57,500 --> 00:55:08,700 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: national literacy policies and programs from 105.5 million, naging 15 million na lang, 15.3 million pesos. 327 00:55:09,260 --> 00:55:17,140 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: That's a 90% reduction for 2027. Literacy, national literacy policies. 328 00:55:17,140 --> 00:55:27,220 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So this is meant to address the edcom finding, di ba? 329 00:55:27,220 --> 00:55:38,500 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Na napakataas po ng functional illiteracy even among graduates of the basic education system. 330 00:55:38,500 --> 00:55:41,680 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And yet, binawasan ng 90% yung funding nito. 331 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:50,480 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Textbooks and other instructional materials from 19.5 billion, naging 6.4 billion na lang po. 332 00:55:51,140 --> 00:55:57,320 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 66% reduction. Textbooks and other instructional materials. 333 00:55:57,580 --> 00:56:04,500 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang alam ko, Undersecretary Angara ay bumabawi na after more than a decade of 334 00:56:04,500 --> 00:56:05,500 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: minimal textbooks. 335 00:56:08,500 --> 00:56:11,660 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Textbook procurement ay pinabilis. 336 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:16,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Finacilitate at nagpo-procure muli ng textbooks ang DepEd. 337 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:17,680 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pero ano mangyayari? 338 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,380 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Binawasan by 66% ito. 339 00:56:20,860 --> 00:56:27,620 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ngayon umaasa sa kongreso para maibalik. 340 00:56:28,220 --> 00:56:34,620 Rep. Antonio L.

Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Yes, gladly, Mr. Speaker. 361 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:14,840 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay, so mamaya po ay kukunin natin. 362 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:21,740 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay, ang isang malaking concern natin ay kaugnay sa MOE, 363 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,800 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: particularly ng mga public schools mismo. 364 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:30,340 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung MOE na nasa schools mismo, yung binababa sa mga school, 365 00:58:30,500 --> 00:58:32,600 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi yung kabuang MOE ng DepEd. 366 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:33,420 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? 367 00:58:33,980 --> 00:58:35,880 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: What we've seen, what we see here, 368 00:58:35,900 --> 00:58:45,440 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: is in the proposed 2027 MOE for operation of schools, 369 00:58:45,580 --> 00:58:50,660 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yun yung item, operation of schools, elementary, kinder to grade 6, 370 00:58:52,380 --> 00:59:01,020 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung proposal sa NEPO, may increase, pero napakaliit po ng increase, 0.11%. 371 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:04,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Operation of schools, 372 00:59:05,900 --> 00:59:09,380 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: junior high school, grade 7 to grade 10, 373 00:59:11,060 --> 00:59:15,640 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: may increase din, pero 0.38% lamang. 374 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,240 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Operation of schools, senior high school, grade 11 to grade 12, 375 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:24,100 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 0.33% increase. 376 00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:35,740 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Bakit po ang proposal sa NEP at sa General Appropriations Bill ay napakaliit na increase? 377 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: wala pang isang porsyento, 378 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:38,840 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ibig sabihin, in effect, 379 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,120 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: this is a decrease 380 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,240 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: because it is way below 381 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,760 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: even the current inflation rate. 382 00:59:48,020 --> 00:59:49,640 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Nasaan ba ang inflation rate ngayon? 383 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,640 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: At least 6.2% this year. 384 00:59:54,380 --> 00:59:57,580 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, hindi man lang nakasabay doon. 385 00:59:58,360 --> 00:59:59,960 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: When in fact, generally, 386 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:04,220 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung kabuhang budget tumataas by about as much. 387 01:00:05,460 --> 01:00:07,000 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So ano po ang paliwanag? 388 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:10,680 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Bakit humihingi ng napakaliit na increase? 389 01:00:10,980 --> 01:00:13,020 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kanina, you used the telling phrase, 390 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:18,300 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sabi nyo yung NEP noong 2026 at NEP noong 2027 391 01:00:18,300 --> 01:00:20,880 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay halos pareho lang. 392 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,280 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Eh mukhang ganun ang lumalabas. 393 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,100 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang problema sa halos pareho lang 394 01:00:25,100 --> 01:00:28,200 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay mas maliit na yan 395 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:33,760 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: dahil sa mas mataas na inflation rate 396 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:37,720 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: even way beyond what the economic managers 397 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:43,020 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: have used as assumptions in preparing the budget. 398 01:00:43,900 --> 01:00:47,500 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Sa kanila, ang projection eh dapat nasa 399 01:00:47,500 --> 01:00:50,660 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: around 4% lang daw ang inflation 400 01:00:50,660 --> 01:00:53,540 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pero alam natin over 6% na ngayon 401 01:00:53,540 --> 01:00:58,120 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: especially due to the still ongoing war of the US 402 01:00:58,120 --> 01:00:59,600 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: against Iraq. 403 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:01,580 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So bakit po ganun? 404 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:02,600 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: What's the explanation? 405 01:01:04,220 --> 01:01:06,360 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ito yung pondo para sa pagpapatakbo 406 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,800 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa araw-araw na papagpatakbo ng mga schools natin. 407 01:01:11,540 --> 01:01:11,800 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Why? 408 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:15,540 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: The inadequate increase. 409 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:17,760 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, 410 01:01:19,100 --> 01:01:22,520 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the manifestation and observation of His Honor 411 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:23,700 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: is very accurate. 412 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:27,360 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Yes, there is an increase in terms of 413 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,180 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the allocation for MOE for schools. 414 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:36,020 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: However, we take note that there is a very slight increase 415 01:01:36,020 --> 01:01:40,520 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: considering all the observations mentioned earlier. 416 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:43,160 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Allow me to manifest, Mr. Speaker, 417 01:01:43,380 --> 01:01:45,760 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: that in the determination of allocation 418 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,060 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: for the MOE for schools, 419 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:52,120 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the department is following a certain formula. 420 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:56,540 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: And in fact, for the past previous years, 421 01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:58,040 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: there is a formula. 422 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:02,820 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: The department calls it the Bonkudin formula 423 01:02:02,820 --> 01:02:05,780 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: that computes the allocation 424 01:02:05,780 --> 01:02:09,180 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: and considers variable amounts 425 01:02:09,180 --> 01:02:10,860 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: based on the number of students, 426 01:02:11,260 --> 01:02:14,020 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: teachers, classrooms, and other factors. 427 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:17,820 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Allow me to inform this August body 428 01:02:17,820 --> 01:02:19,220 Rep.

Zamora: a new computation 431 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,100 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: based on a simplified normative formula. 432 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:29,100 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: And in fact, 433 01:02:29,260 --> 01:02:31,020 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: in the computation, 434 01:02:31,540 --> 01:02:34,620 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: several factors have been considered 435 01:02:34,620 --> 01:02:36,420 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: which still includes 436 01:02:36,420 --> 01:02:39,520 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the number of students, teachers, classrooms, 437 01:02:40,100 --> 01:02:40,840 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: and other, 438 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:44,660 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: and the cost of goods and services 439 01:02:44,660 --> 01:02:48,360 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: on MOE-related items 440 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,360 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: linked to those standards. 441 01:02:51,180 --> 01:02:53,720 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: And in fact, 442 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:58,100 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: just if I may say, 443 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,120 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: historically, 444 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:01,700 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: in 2022, 445 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:03,820 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the MOE 446 01:03:03,820 --> 01:03:07,040 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: pegs around 30 points 447 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,260 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: on 30 billion, 448 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,920 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: amounting to 30 billion for all schools. 449 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:15,160 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: And in 2027 NEP, 450 01:03:15,260 --> 01:03:16,300 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: it's almost doubled. 451 01:03:16,500 --> 01:03:18,240 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: It's already at more than double. 452 01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:22,060 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: It's actually at 61.0 billion, 453 01:03:22,260 --> 01:03:24,500 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: which means that from the previous years 454 01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:25,660 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: until the present, 455 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:27,580 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: we are taking note of 456 01:03:27,580 --> 01:03:31,360 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the increasing allocation for MOE. 457 01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:32,920 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Nevertheless, 458 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:34,700 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: we will also take note 459 01:03:34,700 --> 01:03:37,000 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: of the valid observation of its owner 460 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,440 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: so that moving forward, 461 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:41,680 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the department also will take note 462 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:43,380 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: of all these considerations 463 01:03:43,380 --> 01:03:45,400 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: in improving the policy 464 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:46,440 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor, the proposal is sa 12 billion. 900 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:22,780 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 12 billion pesos. 901 01:16:23,300 --> 01:16:29,780 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And from the budget briefings, parang sinabi po noon, roughly 130 million. 902 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:33,760 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Four, five, 135,000 positions. 903 01:16:34,300 --> 01:16:42,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: However, of the 135,000, yung 100,000 is, kung matatandaan ko yung nang tama yung sa briefing, 904 01:16:43,380 --> 01:16:50,660 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: para po yan dun sa mga, kumbaga, backlog from 2026. 905 01:16:50,660 --> 01:16:56,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ibig sabihin, yung mga nag-apply at nag-qualify na pero wala pang funding. Marami po yan. 906 01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:59,180 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Nag-iintay sila. So, 100,000 po yun. 907 01:16:59,180 --> 01:17:08,620 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, in effect, yung new batch of applicants, there is only enough funding for around 35,000. 908 01:17:09,940 --> 01:17:11,000 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. Tama po ba? 909 01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:12,500 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: That is correct, Mr. Speaker. 910 01:17:12,500 --> 01:17:23,840 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay.

Tinio: Out of nearly 1 million. 913 01:17:29,180 --> 01:17:40,620 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: On teachers overall. Bakit po napakaliit na lang, nang medyo na didiscourage po ang marami? 914 01:17:40,740 --> 01:17:45,140 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Parang, nako, ang konti naman ito. Paano po yun, Madam Speaker? 915 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:58,620 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor. Yes, if only the department will have its way, the department will give what is due to everyone. 916 01:17:59,180 --> 01:18:16,740 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: But considering the limited resources, the department proposed for a more realistic amount, which is actually, for the record, is way higher than the previous allocation. 917 01:18:16,740 --> 01:18:26,860 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Because historically, in the past, the department has an allocation only of 500 million on the average. 918 01:18:26,860 --> 01:18:27,620 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. 919 01:18:27,620 --> 01:18:47,000 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: But now, compared to last years, we are about to promote around [unclear], 135,000. 920 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:48,600 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 135,000. 921 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:49,040 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. 922 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:55,800 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Dati po, nasa 5,000 lang po yung napapromote based on the allocation. 923 01:18:56,500 --> 01:18:57,600 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Pero ngayon, dito sa proposal. 924 01:18:57,620 --> 01:19:10,960 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Dito sa proposal, the department targets for around 135,000 teachers, which is, I think, 25 times more than the previous. 925 01:19:11,100 --> 01:19:17,600 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Moving forward, ano po ba ang, ganun po ba ang plano ng Department of Education annually? 926 01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:26,640 Rep. Antonio L.

Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the program. 942 01:20:14,600 --> 01:20:16,520 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: So, madami tayong 943 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:18,780 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: backlog in the previous years. 944 01:20:18,940 --> 01:20:19,440 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: That's why 945 01:20:19,440 --> 01:20:22,720 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: the figure now reflects on 946 01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,860 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: what is more realistic in terms 947 01:20:24,860 --> 01:20:25,500 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Elago: At sa tingin ko po sa panahon ngayon, isa po itong hindi makatarungan na hakbang kung kakaltasan ng pagkalaki-laki itong Learner Support Program. 1637 01:55:44,380 --> 01:55:47,940 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maari ba ang magpaliwanag dito ang ating author? 1638 01:55:47,940 --> 01:55:52,280 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Elago: At walang pondo o kulangang pondo pero malaki pong pangangailangan sa ngayon para sa ganitong tipo ng mga support programs. 1640 01:56:03,400 --> 01:56:17,020 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, Your Honor, some of the strategies to be implemented by the department as to the improvement of critical thinking skills among learners 1641 01:56:17,020 --> 01:56:27,960 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: is to expand its elective subjects nationwide and to introduce to grade 12 learners NC3 qualifications. 1642 01:56:28,640 --> 01:56:42,760 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: This also includes life and career skills and becoming it as the core of the skills. 1643 01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:46,760 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: To improve also to increase work immersion. 1644 01:56:47,020 --> 01:56:58,040 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Elago: Mr. Speaker, pwede niyo po bang bigyan niyong representasyon na ito yung particulars ng 37% na budget cut na gusto po natin makita? 1647 01:57:16,020 --> 01:57:16,260 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kasi, 1648 01:57:17,020 --> 01:57:20,160 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa mga legal basis naman po ng ating learner support program, 1649 01:57:20,620 --> 01:57:26,840 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ang malaking bahagi po sa aming pag-aaral ay tungkol sa pagpapatupad ng ating National Mental Health Policy. 1650 01:57:27,840 --> 01:57:31,400 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: So, kung baga, kung hindi po natin ito pupondohan ng maayos, 1651 01:57:31,400 --> 01:57:37,780 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: paano natin maaasahan na yung agaran na abot kamay, na counseling, 1652 01:57:38,440 --> 01:57:45,540 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: iba't ibang support services sa ating mga learners, pati na rin sa mga teachers at lahat ng ating education stakeholders 1653 01:57:45,540 --> 01:57:46,400 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Elago: Bukod pa dito, ginong speaker, nakita rin po natin na ay hindi po malinaw at hindi pantay-pantay, halimbawa, 1656 01:57:58,360 --> 01:58:08,280 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: yung pagpupondo dun sa mga spaces sana for socialization ng mga bata ng buong community sa isang eskwelahan. 1657 01:58:08,660 --> 01:58:16,980 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Halimbawa po, yung napakahalaga na pagkakaroon ng mga libraries na may sapat na espasyo at ventilation para sa mga learners, 1658 01:58:17,020 --> 01:58:20,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: pagkakaroon ng playground, 1659 01:58:20,020 --> 01:58:26,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: pagkakaroon ng mga community garden kung saan pwede magkaroon, 1660 01:58:26,020 --> 01:58:34,020 Rep.

Elago: Yung tambayan po parang, kung baga, a luxury. Hindi po lahat ay meron maayos na tambayan. 1662 01:58:42,020 --> 01:58:46,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: In fact, marami po sa mga lugar natin, makikita natin sa kanilang mga parks, 1663 01:58:47,020 --> 01:58:54,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: or mga multi-purpose hall, habang may nagbabasketball sa isang parte, may nagme-meeting sa isang parte, 1664 01:58:54,020 --> 01:58:58,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: may nagpa-practice ng plans for a school event sa isang parte. 1665 01:58:58,020 --> 01:59:06,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: So, kung baga, kulang na kulang po yung facilities natin para sa holistic development ng ating mga learners, 1666 01:59:06,020 --> 01:59:08,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng ating education stakeholders. 1667 01:59:08,020 --> 01:59:13,020 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Una ko pong i-focus yung patungkol sa Asatids compensation. 1678 02:00:09,800 --> 02:00:25,080 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor, parte ng Madrasa Education Program ang Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education, kung saan ang ating mga Asatids ang nagtuturo sa Muslim learners. 1679 02:00:25,080 --> 02:00:34,180 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Can you confirm na ang current monthly baseline compensation ng mga Asatids under contract of service ay P12,500? 1680 02:00:49,280 --> 02:00:54,180 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, Your Honor, the compensation of Asatids, 1681 02:00:55,080 --> 02:01:05,520 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: is at P12,500 per month, and it was implemented in 2024. 1682 02:01:06,380 --> 02:01:18,300 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat po. Meron po bang plano ang DepEd na i-increase ang monthly baseline compensation na ito para mas maging fair at sustainable ang support sa ating mga Asatids? 1683 02:01:19,020 --> 02:01:24,300 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, Your Honor, the proposal for increase of... 1684 02:01:25,080 --> 02:01:33,680 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, Your Honor, the proposal for increase of honorarium is part of the wish list of the department na sana from P12,500 per month magiging P16,000 per month. 1685 02:01:34,840 --> 02:01:40,300 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: But again, that is still part of the wish list and that depends sa kongreso. 1686 02:01:40,900 --> 02:01:42,300 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, your Honor. 1687 02:01:42,300 --> 02:01:46,460 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: So mula sa P12,500 magiging P16,000. 1688 02:01:47,100 --> 02:01:53,580 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: But this is still subject to the availability of funds kung ma-approve yung wish list ng DepEd. 1689 02:01:53,580 --> 02:01:54,220 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: That is correct. 1690 02:01:55,080 --> 02:01:56,920 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat, good sponsor. 1691 02:01:57,500 --> 02:02:03,840 Rep.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Nais ko lamang i-commend ang DepEd dahil nagkaroon po ng significant improvement sa timeline ng release ng compensation for our Asatids. 1693 02:02:14,920 --> 02:02:19,840 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Sana po ay tuloy-tuloy na masiguro ng DepEd ang timely na release na ito. 1694 02:02:20,840 --> 02:02:24,840 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Distinguished sponsor, another point lang sa madrasa, education program. 1695 02:02:25,080 --> 02:02:40,340 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Before I proceed to another topic, I would like to manifest na mas mababa po ang proposed madrasa education program budget for 2027 kung ikumpara po natin ito sa 2026 GAA level. 1696 02:02:40,860 --> 02:02:51,360 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Dahil dito, naninindigan po kami na ang pondo para sa madrasa education program ay dapat ma-restore man lang sa 2026 GAA level 1697 02:02:51,360 --> 02:02:55,060 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: upang matiyak ang sapat na compensation at support. 1698 02:02:55,080 --> 02:03:03,620 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Para sa ating mga Asatids at Muslim learners, nadako po ako sa ISAL teachers. 1699 02:03:04,880 --> 02:03:17,220 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Distinguished sponsor, noong nakaraang budget briefing ay masaya po tayong malaman mula kay sekretary po mismo na ang mga ISAL teachers from Sulu ay i-aabsorb ng DepEd. 1700 02:03:17,220 --> 02:03:25,060 Rep.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Hindi po ba kaya magkakaroon ng pagkaantala dahil madi-delay po or by January pa sila magsisimula dahil may ilang buwan pa tayo bago matapos yung 2026? 1715 02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:52,840 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: 2026. 1716 02:04:55,080 --> 02:05:11,060 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Madam Sponsor, gusto ko lamang po kasing makakuha ng assurance mula sa DepEd. 1719 02:05:25,080 --> 02:05:34,780 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Na ano po kaya ang assurance na kasalukuyang mga ISAL teachers natin ay maaabsorb po ba talaga? 1720 02:05:35,020 --> 02:05:36,960 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Can the DepEd commit to this po? 1721 02:05:38,900 --> 02:05:41,600 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Anyway, maari po ba nating malaman kung kailan ang effective date nila? 1725 02:05:55,020 --> 02:05:58,960 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Nasabi niyo po kanina January, effective what January time po? 1726 02:05:59,640 --> 02:06:00,880 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Nakakabahala po kasi na hanggang ngayon ay wala pa tayong nailabas na omnibus hiring guidelines or reappointment guidelines or absorption guidelines. 1729 02:06:15,240 --> 02:06:19,020 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Nilalagay nito ang ating mga ISAL teachers sa isang limbo. 1730 02:06:19,020 --> 02:06:24,740 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Hindi nila alam kung sila ba ay mahahire or mariri-appoint? 1731 02:06:25,020 --> 02:06:26,040 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Or maaabsorb? 1732 02:06:26,400 --> 02:06:31,660 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Kung kinakailangan nilang maghanap ng iba pang trabaho, at least alam nila in advance. 1733 02:06:32,220 --> 02:06:43,040 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor, sana po ay madaliin ng DepEd ang pagpapalabas ng omnibus hiring guidelines or absorption guidelines ba yan? 1734 02:06:43,040 --> 02:06:49,560 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Sa lalong madaling panahon upang mabigyan ng kapanataga ng ating mga ISAL teachers. 1735 02:06:50,300 --> 02:06:54,040 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: May katanungan lang po patungkol naman sa paggamit ng AI tools 1736 02:06:55,020 --> 02:06:59,340 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: para matulungan ang ating mga guro at personnel. 1737 02:07:00,140 --> 02:07:12,740 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Can the distinguished sponsor discuss how DepEd is using AI in detecting speech impediments and assessing health needs ng mga learners? 1738 02:07:18,320 --> 02:07:21,340 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ito po yung patungkol sa e-care. 1739 02:07:25,020 --> 02:07:48,580 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor, there are already practices being implemented by DepEd in line with the usage of AI so as to assist our learners. 1740 02:07:48,580 --> 02:07:52,580 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: So, in fact, there is one... 1741 02:07:55,020 --> 02:08:07,340 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: ... one strategy that is being implemented, the taking of picture in taking the height and weight of the learner. 1742 02:08:07,340 --> 02:08:14,360 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: That is one of the many AI interventions being implemented. 1743 02:08:14,540 --> 02:08:15,280 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor. 1744 02:08:16,260 --> 02:08:19,680 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor. 1745 02:08:20,360 --> 02:08:24,340 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maari ko po bang malaman kung how much ang budget for... 1746 02:08:25,020 --> 02:08:26,280 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: ... for e-care this year. 1747 02:08:26,760 --> 02:08:31,180 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Is that enough to continue funding for the innovative projects? 1748 02:08:36,200 --> 02:08:46,100 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor, with regards to AI intervention, this is also part of the wishes of the department. 1749 02:08:46,100 --> 02:08:53,260 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: The department is proposing for 120 million proposal for next year. 1750 02:08:53,520 --> 02:08:54,640 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Again, it depends. 1751 02:08:55,020 --> 02:08:57,440 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: It will now be subject to the approval of the government. 1752 02:08:57,440 --> 02:09:00,460 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Yung this 2026 po, nasa magkano yung budget? 1753 02:09:07,460 --> 02:09:15,400 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Mr. Speaker, Your Honor, for 2026, there is an allocation of 120 million for the implementation of AI-related. 1754 02:09:15,980 --> 02:09:17,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat po. 1755 02:09:17,040 --> 02:09:25,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ako po ay dadako ngayon sa mga katanungang gustong ipaabot ng aking kasamahan sa Akbayan na si Representative Chel Diokno. 1756 02:09:25,020 --> 02:09:35,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: May ulat tayong natanggap mula sa isang teacher organization na wala pa rin sapat na consultation 1757 02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:41,880 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: ang kagawaran sa mga stakeholders nito patungkol sa mga kamakailang policy shifts 1758 02:09:41,880 --> 02:09:51,780 Rep.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: na nagdudulot ng pagkalito. 1760 02:09:53,900 --> 02:10:07,780 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: At karagdagang pasanin sa ating mga kaguruan, paano po makakasiguro ng DepEd na ang mga bagong reforma at pagbabago sa sistema 1761 02:10:07,780 --> 02:10:15,360 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: ay may sapat na konsultasyon sa mga guro at may katapat na pondo bago ito ipatupad sa buong bansa? 1762 02:10:22,020 --> 02:10:23,200 Rep. Maria Carmen S. Zamora: Sir Speaker, Your Honor. 1763 02:10:23,900 --> 02:10:30,860 Rep. Maria Carmen S.

Ortega V: To the National Irrigation Administration family headed by Administrator Engineer Eduardo Eddie Guillen, welcome to the House of Representatives.

Patricia C. Calderon: to answer questions on the proposed budget of the National Irrigation Administration. 2071 02:35:34,200 --> 02:35:40,700 Deputy Speaker Francisco Paolo P. Ortega V: The Honorable Joseph Tan is now recognized. You may proceed, sir. 2072 02:35:40,700 --> 02:35:59,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, distinguished colleagues, magandang araw sa ating lahat. Kapag po pinag-usapan natin ang irigasyon, hindi lamang po kanal, dam at istruktura ang ating pinag-uusapan. Ang pinag-uusapan po natin ay tubig na nagbibigay-buhay sa ating mga sakahan, 2073 02:36:00,000 --> 02:36:29,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ani na nagbibigay kabuhayan sa ating mga magsasaka at pagkain na inilalagay natin sa hapag ng bawat pamilyang Pilipino. Bilang kinatawan ng isang agricultural district, personal ko pong nakikita at naririnig ang mga hamon ng ating mga magsasaka. Kapag walang sapat na tubig, walang sapat na ani. Kapag mababa ang ani, mababa ang kita ng magsasaka. 2074 02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:59,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At kapag humina ang produksyon ng ating mga bukid, tayong lahat ang apektado sa presyo ng bigas, gulay at iba pang mga pagkain. Kaya ang budget ng National Irrigation Administration ay hindi lamang budget para sa isang government corporation. It is an investment in our farmers, our country, and ultimately in our nation?s food security. 2075 02:37:00,000 --> 02:37:29,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, the challenge before us is clear. We need to expand irrigation to agricultural areas that still depend heavily on rainfall. We need to rehabilitate aging and damaged irrigation facilities. We need to modernize our system so that water reaches farms more efficiently and increasingly. We need irrigation infrastructure that can withstand drought, floods, typhoons and the growing effects of climate change. 2076 02:37:30,000 --> 02:37:59,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: But funding alone is not enough. Every peso that Congress provides for irrigation must translate into actual hectares irrigated, reliable water supply, higher agricultural productivity and better income for our farmers. We expect NIA to ensure that projects are properly planned, 2077 02:38:00,000 --> 02:38:29,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: implementation-ready and completed on time. We also expect NIA to strengthen its partnership with our irrigators? associations. Hindi lamang beneficiaries ang ating mga irrigators at magsasaka. Partner sila ng pamahalaan.

Tan: ang kanyang sakahan. 2094 02:38:48,000 --> 02:38:49,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Hindi sapat na 2095 02:38:49,000 --> 02:38:50,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: gumawa tayo ng 2096 02:38:50,000 --> 02:38:51,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: farm-to-market road 2097 02:38:51,000 --> 02:38:52,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: kung kulang naman 2098 02:38:52,000 --> 02:38:53,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ang production 2099 02:38:53,000 --> 02:38:54,000 Rep. Joseph S.

Joseph S. Tan: Our investment 2103 02:38:57,000 --> 02:38:58,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: in seeds, 2104 02:38:58,000 --> 02:38:59,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: farm machinery, 2105 02:38:59,000 --> 02:39:06,280 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: post-harvest facilities, farm-to-market roads, credit and market access, 2106 02:39:06,400 --> 02:39:14,480 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: we will achieve more if our farmers have one of the most basic requirements of agriculture, water. 2107 02:39:15,300 --> 02:39:19,520 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: And this is precisely why investment in irrigation matters. 2108 02:39:19,520 --> 02:39:27,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At the same time, this representation recognizes that Congress has the responsibility 2109 02:39:27,500 --> 02:39:32,780 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: not only to provide resources, but also to demand accountability. 2110 02:39:33,840 --> 02:39:38,740 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: We expect NIA to implement project efficiently, address delay, 2111 02:39:39,480 --> 02:39:43,380 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: strengthen coordination with local government and farmers' organizations, 2112 02:39:43,380 --> 02:39:50,140 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: and ensure that public funds produce measurable results on the ground. 2113 02:39:51,420 --> 02:39:57,340 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Ang tunay po na sukatan ng budget nito ay hindi kung magkano ang ating inilaan. 2114 02:39:57,500 --> 02:40:03,400 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Ang tunay na sukatan ay kung ilang magsasaka ang natulungan. 2115 02:40:03,700 --> 02:40:07,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Ilang ektarya ng sakahan ang nagkaroon ng maaasahang patubig, 2116 02:40:08,240 --> 02:40:10,760 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: gaano karaming ani ang nadagdag, 2117 02:40:11,840 --> 02:40:17,180 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: at gaano kalaki na itulong nito sa kita ng ating mga magsasaka. 2118 02:40:18,540 --> 02:40:23,820 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, food security begins long before food reaches our market. 2119 02:40:24,220 --> 02:40:26,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: It begins in our farm. 2120 02:40:27,500 --> 02:40:28,660 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: It begins with our farmers. 2121 02:40:29,480 --> 02:40:32,480 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: And very often, it begins with water. 2122 02:40:33,480 --> 02:40:36,660 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya sa bawat irrigation canal na ating ginagawa, 2123 02:40:37,380 --> 02:40:41,020 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sa bawat irrigation system na ating nirarehabilitate, 2124 02:40:41,020 --> 02:40:44,860 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: at sa bawat bagong sakahan na naaabot ng tubig, 2125 02:40:45,660 --> 02:40:49,340 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: nagbibigay tayo ng pagkakataon sa ating mga magsasaka 2126 02:40:49,340 --> 02:40:55,080 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: na magkaroon ng mas magandang ani at mas maayos na buhay. 2127 02:40:56,380 --> 02:40:57,280 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Most importantly, 2128 02:40:57,500 --> 02:41:02,740 Rep. Joseph S.

Magandang umaga po, Mr. Sponsor. 2140 02:41:54,500 --> 02:42:08,760 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Una po, maraming salamat dun sa pagpapahatid ng NIA ng datos tungkol sa nahiningi natin noong unang nagkaroon ng committee hearing para sa budget na ito. 2141 02:42:09,180 --> 02:42:16,040 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: So, mga tanong ko po ay clarificatory question mula po dun sa mga data po na ipinadala ninyo. 2142 02:42:16,500 --> 02:42:24,120 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Yung una ko po lang pong tanong, medyo sabi nyo nga po at I agree with you, Mr. Sponsor, 2143 02:42:24,500 --> 02:42:37,600 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: na very important yung irrigation, yung tubig, para masiguro na yung facility, yung infrastructure na ikakabitin sa mga lupang saka na ito ay maging meaningful at useful. 2144 02:42:37,900 --> 02:42:45,060 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Pero sa ngayon pong taon na ito, in fact, sa pagtinignan natin yung datos na kayo din po ang nag-provide sa amin, 2145 02:42:45,500 --> 02:42:51,680 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: parang 70.25% o 2.20 million hectare pa lang ang ating napapatubigan. 2146 02:42:52,280 --> 02:42:53,600 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Meron pa tayong naiiwang 2147 02:42:54,500 --> 02:42:59,500 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: 1.01 million hectares ng lupang sakahan na naghihintay ng patubig. 2148 02:43:00,080 --> 02:43:10,460 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Ang nakakabahala lang po dito ay medyo mabagal po, 1.14% lang ang average annual increase natin sa loob ng 15 taon. 2149 02:43:10,940 --> 02:43:22,800 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: At in fact, ngayong 2027, ang target na bubuksang bagong irigasyon ng NIA ay nasa medyo kakarampot lang na 5,362 hectares para sa buong bansa. 2150 02:43:22,800 --> 02:43:24,280 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: So, ang tanong po natin, 2151 02:43:24,500 --> 02:43:28,900 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: ay paano natin maaabot yung 100% irrigation coverage? 2152 02:43:29,480 --> 02:43:34,080 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: Kung ang idadagdag lang natin ngayong 2027 ay 5,000 hectares more or less. 2153 02:43:34,640 --> 02:43:43,500 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: At ano po yung talagang timeline ng ating strategic implementation para sa national government 2154 02:43:43,500 --> 02:43:50,080 Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao: para masiguro po na mapatubigan talaga natin yung natitirang 1.01 million hectares na lupain? 2155 02:43:53,380 --> 02:43:54,440 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, 2156 02:43:54,500 --> 02:43:55,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Distinguished Colleagues, 2157 02:43:55,500 --> 02:43:56,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Tama po, no? 2158 02:43:56,500 --> 02:43:59,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Maganda hong naungkat yung bagay na yan. 2159 02:43:59,500 --> 02:44:16,500 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Una, base po sa master, sa ating National Irrigation Master Plan, talaga hong napalaki ng bilang nun, 9 million plus, yung mga net potential irrigable land. 2160 02:44:16,500 --> 02:44:24,480 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At kung babalikan natin dati nating data, yung net potential, pag ang 3% lang pinag-uusapan natin, bumababayan ng 3%. 2161 02:44:24,480 --> 02:44:25,440 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: 4 million plus. 2162 02:44:25,880 --> 02:44:35,780 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Pero yung talagang, yung naging basihan natin last year, yung 3,200,000 ay talaga naman pong kung susumahin natin, 2163 02:44:36,300 --> 02:44:40,780 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sa ngayon po ay out of the 3.2, kako nga, ay 2.2 yung sa atin. 2164 02:44:40,920 --> 02:44:51,640 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Pero nakikita naman natin bumababaho talaga yung bilang ng sakahin ngayon dahil sa mga maraming kakibat ho natin kasi ang progreso. 2165 02:44:52,440 --> 02:44:53,720 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya andyan ho yung mga conversion. 2166 02:44:54,480 --> 02:45:00,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya kung susumahin nun natin kung 2.2 million ho yun at may natitira pa tayo, 2167 02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:01,800 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ang 1 million at 2168 02:45:01,800 --> 02:45:04,140 Rep.

Tan: primary, secondary, tertiary, talagang ma-automatic na conversion. 2796 03:11:32,060 --> 03:11:39,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Pero doon ho sa mga sulok-sulok na magandaanid dahil sa malakas ng tubig, 2797 03:11:39,060 --> 03:11:44,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: tapos kinoconvert ng walang pakundangan, eh yun ho ang nakakabahala, 2798 03:11:44,060 --> 03:11:46,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, District Colleague. 2799 03:11:47,060 --> 03:11:49,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya tama lang po na yu po. 2800 03:11:49,060 --> 03:11:53,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At ito'y napag-usapan na rin naman po bago pa dumating tong puntong ito, 2801 03:11:53,060 --> 03:12:00,060 Rep. Joseph S.

Tan: Tapagkat hindi ho gawang biro. 2803 03:12:02,060 --> 03:12:08,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Yung gastusin ng NIA kahit dasal tayo ng dasal na madagdagan ng pondo, 2804 03:12:08,060 --> 03:12:12,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: dito naman sa bandang kaliwa natin, convert sila ng convert, 2805 03:12:12,060 --> 03:12:15,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: wala naman problema kung talagang ang slope ng, ah, ah, no, 2806 03:12:15,060 --> 03:12:21,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ng lupa ay imposibleng malagyan ng tubig. 2807 03:12:21,060 --> 03:12:29,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kung lalampas siya ng halimbawang 18% o percent slope o kaya 20% slope, 2808 03:12:29,060 --> 03:12:31,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: medyo mahirap-hirap na ho yun. 2809 03:12:31,060 --> 03:12:36,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At ang maganda naman ho doon, pag yun ang binigyan natin ng clearance, 2810 03:12:36,060 --> 03:12:38,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: eh sa cut and fill na lang ho sila gagastus. 2811 03:12:38,060 --> 03:12:44,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Unlike doon sa mga lugar na malalalim, eh mag-gastus din ho yun. 2812 03:12:44,060 --> 03:12:47,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kung anong halaga ng per square meter noon, pag tinambangan mo yun, 2813 03:12:47,060 --> 03:12:49,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: yun din ang halaga ng cost. 2814 03:12:49,060 --> 03:12:54,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya hindi naman ho magiging lugi rin yung magko-convert kung saka-sakali man, 2815 03:12:54,060 --> 03:12:56,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleagues. 2816 03:12:56,630 --> 03:13:02,060 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Elago: mga usapin ng irrigation projects. 2819 03:13:12,060 --> 03:13:19,060 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Vis-a-vis, ah, the application of a land use conversion. 2820 03:13:20,130 --> 03:13:31,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Ah, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleagues, yung humang tinukurukuin natin ay yung primary na ahensya na mag-maga-ko-convert. 2821 03:13:31,060 --> 03:13:33,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kasama ho pa pala ang DHSUD, nakalimutan ko sabihin. 2822 03:13:33,060 --> 03:13:40,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kasi sila yung huling pipirma kung sa individual land titling, kung pasado ho ba yung, ah, mapa o, ah, land use conversion. 2823 03:13:40,060 --> 03:13:46,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: limitong lahat nong ah, mapa o yung pinaka, ah, site development, ah, plan. 2824 03:13:46,060 --> 03:13:49,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Pero most importantly talaga ang LGU. 2825 03:13:49,060 --> 03:13:58,060 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kasi ang LGU po ang Local Government Unit sila hamak ang nakakaalam nung mga area na dine-ide, indevelop. 2826 03:13:58,060 --> 03:14:05,140 Rep. Joseph S.

Tan: Sa dulo, pag bumaha, nagkaroon ng problema, ang sinisisi po lagi LGO. 2830 03:14:23,840 --> 03:14:39,680 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya dapat to talaga magsama-sama na ho yung nabanggit nating ahensya na iyo pong mabuti, paigtingin mabuti at ipataw or implement ang law para sa bagay na napag-usapan po natin, Mr. Speaker of the District College. 2831 03:14:40,470 --> 03:15:00,000 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mahalaga po ito, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor, dahil marami na dito sa kapulungan natin sa 20th Congress na mga panukalang batas para proteksyonan at mapreserba at yung kinakailangan ng mga support services sa agrikultura na kaugnay ng... 2832 03:15:00,000 --> 03:15:03,560 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: proteksyon ng ating mga prime agricultural lands 2833 03:15:03,560 --> 03:15:06,660 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: at paghihigpit pagdating sa mga land use conversion. 2834 03:15:07,220 --> 03:15:13,520 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil kung gano'n po kabilis yung expansion halimbawa ng mga industrial projects, 2835 03:15:13,520 --> 03:15:20,200 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: gayon naman po kabagal at sobrang lumiliit pa yung mga sakop ng ating mga lupain 2836 03:15:20,200 --> 03:15:22,840 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Maari po bang malaman magkano po yung nadagdag sa ating budget as proposed for 2027 compared po to 2026? 2927 03:23:22,800 --> 03:23:23,560 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: ... 2928 03:23:26,280 --> 03:23:32,680 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleagues, ang tinitok po po natin ay yung karagdagan. 2929 03:23:33,220 --> 03:23:43,960 Rep. Joseph S.

Tan: Pero lumabas lang po na NEP ay nasa P46 billion something. 2931 03:23:49,520 --> 03:23:52,680 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Plus yung hong local source po. 2932 03:23:52,800 --> 03:23:59,540 Rep.

Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Maraming salamat, Distinguished Colleagues, Mr. Speaker. 2934 03:24:03,820 --> 03:24:09,560 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Mabilis lamang po ang ilang mga tanong. Una po ay, pausapan po natin ang 2026 budget po natin. 2935 03:24:10,060 --> 03:24:16,140 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Magkano na po ang obligated at disbursed ating 2026 budget ginaong sponsor, Mr. Speaker? 2936 03:24:16,140 --> 03:24:34,600 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Sa 2026 po, ang utilization rate po natin ay more or less 49% at ang disbursement rate po natin ay 28%. 2937 03:24:34,600 --> 03:24:45,880 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: So, nangyari po ito kasi kung babalikan po natin ang datos, kasi po yung lumabas po na, 2938 03:24:46,140 --> 03:24:54,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: advice o saraw from DBM ay medyo late po siya, middle of the year more or less, 2939 03:24:54,140 --> 03:24:57,720 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: na siguro sometime May or April of May. 2940 03:24:58,340 --> 03:25:00,840 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: So, pag lumabas po kasi yun, dumating ang pondo, 2941 03:25:01,660 --> 03:25:04,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: tempre, magkakaroon pa rin po ng procurement. 2942 03:25:05,300 --> 03:25:10,780 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: So, it takes time. Siguro more or less po, mga two months ang procurement plus post-evaluation. 2943 03:25:11,560 --> 03:25:12,600 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: So, tatlong buwan po yun. 2944 03:25:12,600 --> 03:25:16,100 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya, pagkamat lumabas na yung kabuuan na pondo, 2945 03:25:16,140 --> 03:25:19,720 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: eh hindi agad ma-obligate lahat yung buong pera. 2946 03:25:20,420 --> 03:25:26,000 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya, lumalabas ito pala, based on sa allotment versus doon sa obligation, 2947 03:25:26,740 --> 03:25:28,400 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: meron hong discrepancy malaki. 2948 03:25:28,580 --> 03:25:33,800 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Sapagkat una, yung timing ho ng pondong dumating, eh medyo sa tag-ulan na. 2949 03:25:34,520 --> 03:25:37,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Pangalawa, yung pondo na sa middle of the year, 2950 03:25:38,040 --> 03:25:41,200 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: so yun nga, katotong sinabi ho natin, yung procurement process pa, 2951 03:25:41,660 --> 03:25:45,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: eh talagang kumakain ho ng oras siya. 2952 03:25:45,560 --> 03:25:47,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At doon sa disbursement naman, 2953 03:25:47,560 --> 03:25:51,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sempre po, pag mababa ang patrabaho, 2954 03:25:51,560 --> 03:25:53,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: mababa ang accomplishment, 2955 03:25:53,560 --> 03:25:56,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: mababa rin ang collections. 2956 03:25:56,560 --> 03:26:03,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At sadyang causes ho na lahat ng mga delay na yan ay dahil sa nakaharap na ho tayo sa ulan. 2957 03:26:03,560 --> 03:26:09,560 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya, kaliwakanan, ngayon uulan, bukas, aaraw, sa susunod na panahon ay uulan na naman. 2958 03:26:09,560 --> 03:26:15,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Hindi na na ho natin maintindihan kung eh ang, kung kailan talaga tunay na aaraw, 2959 03:26:15,040 --> 03:26:20,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sapagkat kung titignan ho natin, no, base po sa, yan nga, 2960 03:26:20,040 --> 03:26:29,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: pag ganitong pumasok ang panahon ng June, July, August, September, October, habagat, 2961 03:26:29,040 --> 03:26:34,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: lagi ho yang may daladalang pabugso-bugsong ulan na may bagyo pa. 2962 03:26:34,040 --> 03:26:38,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya ang pagkakataon, ang timing ho talaga yan, pagdating sa amihan, 2963 03:26:38,040 --> 03:26:44,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: yung itong pagdating na November, December, January, February, March, yung medyo tagtuyot ng konti, doon ho natin hinahabol. 2964 03:26:44,040 --> 03:26:49,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Eh nangyari ho yung panahon na yun, wala doon ho yung release, 2965 03:26:49,040 --> 03:26:54,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sapagkat alam naman din natin ang kadahilanan, medyo na late lang ho, pero ngayon hinahabol naman na ho, 2966 03:26:54,040 --> 03:27:00,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: para at least lumaki ang obligations, makapag-bid out, makapag-obligate, 2967 03:27:00,040 --> 03:27:07,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: magkaroon ng malaking physical accomplishment at lumaki rin ang disbursement, Mr. Speaker Distinguished Colleagues. 2968 03:27:07,040 --> 03:27:11,040 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Mr. Speaker Distinguished Colleagues, nakababahala po iyong sitwasyon, 2969 03:27:11,040 --> 03:27:13,040 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: ah, natin pagdating sa obligations. 2970 03:27:14,040 --> 03:27:19,040 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: So, kung ganito po, ilan po ang mga irrigation projects natin ang delayed? 2971 03:27:19,040 --> 03:27:28,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Actually, may bilang din ho tayo, hindi lang, pwede yung humbig na lang namin kay Mr. Speaker Distinguished Colleagues 2972 03:27:28,040 --> 03:27:33,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ng kopyan ng bilang ng delay, at alam naman ho natin kasi ang mga causes ng delay, 2973 03:27:33,040 --> 03:27:42,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: katulad na sabi nga natin, ah, kapag ganito na ho ang panahon, talaga ho, gustuhin man ng mga nananalong bidder, 2974 03:27:42,040 --> 03:27:53,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: na mag-mobilize, dahil yung area po ay sadyang maputik na, hindi na ho yung, hindi na makagalaw totally, 2975 03:27:53,040 --> 03:28:03,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: at kaliwakanan pa ang problema sa pag-increase ng mga fuel, scarcity ng mga gamit, 2976 03:28:03,040 --> 03:28:11,040 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: ah, mga construction materials, equipment hindi ma-mobilize, kaya maraming hong causes ng delay talaga. 2977 03:28:12,040 --> 03:28:20,040 Rep. Joseph S.

Tan: It so happen po na talaga ho dahil sa tao ng pagpupondo, eh hindi naman ho pwedeng akuin na lahat doon. 3842 04:26:44,400 --> 04:26:49,640 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Ilagay ho natin sa isang area yung pondo na NIA na kakarampot na ganyan. 3843 04:26:49,860 --> 04:26:58,740 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Eh, yung iba namang ho mga region, no, ibang mga area ay siyempre po, ay lahat may pangangailangan. 3844 04:26:59,520 --> 04:27:04,600 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Bagamat, sabi nga ho natin kanina, mas nanaisin ho natin sana ma-focus doon sa malalaki 3845 04:27:04,600 --> 04:27:09,820 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: sapagkat katulad ng HALAOR, kundi ako ba-ba-ba, ay mayroon 40, ilang tausan yan? 3846 04:27:11,020 --> 04:27:11,820 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: 40,000? 3847 04:27:11,820 --> 04:27:12,300 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: More or less? 3848 04:27:15,680 --> 04:27:19,120 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ganito kasi, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor. 3849 04:27:19,200 --> 04:27:19,380 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Apa? 3850 04:27:19,380 --> 04:27:38,460 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Nakita ko kasi sa record na may saraw tong programa na to na 14.3 billion, 20-25, pero ang obligated lang is 4.1 billion. 3851 04:27:39,200 --> 04:27:44,440 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ang utilization rate niya, 28.6% lang. 3852 04:27:44,440 --> 04:27:48,780 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, ano po yung nag-prevent sa agency? 3853 04:27:49,380 --> 04:27:55,200 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: From utilizing yung pondo na nasa saraw, bakit po hindi nagamit? 3854 04:27:55,780 --> 04:28:09,600 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Actually, actually, kung Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague, no, ang pondo, usually po ay, yun nga, sinasabi natin, pag dumating ang pondo, hindi ma-obligate. 3855 04:28:11,400 --> 04:28:14,280 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Dahil sa hindi pa na-procure, maaring ganun. 3856 04:28:15,700 --> 04:28:15,980 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: At, 3857 04:28:16,040 --> 04:28:18,600 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: at, 3858 04:28:19,380 --> 04:28:28,440 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: yung iba naman ho ay, kung sakali man na-procure na po siya, for awarding na siya, for notice to proceed na, makapag-umpisa na rin po sila. 3859 04:28:29,420 --> 04:28:36,860 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya hindi, kasi ganun ho talaga minsan, katulad ho nung ibang pondo natin sa last year, 3860 04:28:36,860 --> 04:28:45,660 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: eh dumating na ho yung saraw, isa ho, malaking project din ho yun, pet project, big tickets, 3861 04:28:46,420 --> 04:28:49,260 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: hindi rin ma-iaward agad, hindi ma-iobligate. 3862 04:28:49,380 --> 04:28:59,120 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Obligate ka agad, although dyan na saraw, kapagkat dahil ho yung laki nung project, kailangan ho nating may kapartner sa labas ng bansa. 3863 04:28:59,920 --> 04:29:11,380 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: So, series of bidding na kinandak, at nagkaroon ho rin ng problema, until now, meron pa rin mga, wala pa rin pumapas ang contractor. 3864 04:29:12,300 --> 04:29:16,380 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kasi kung local contractor po kasi ang sasali, hindi ho sila makakwalified. 3865 04:29:16,380 --> 04:29:19,220 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: Kaya minsan, pag may pondo ho nandyan, 3866 04:29:19,380 --> 04:29:28,720 Rep. Joseph S. Tan: hindi ma-obligate, kaya nakikita ho natin na talagang, maski nandunay saraw, ay hindi pa ma-100% yung obligation, Mr. Chair. 3867 04:29:28,900 --> 04:29:43,300 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Yan po yung concern ko, Distinguished Sponsor, kasi naghahanap tayo ng pondo para sa pangangailangan ng erigasyon. 3868 04:29:43,300 --> 04:29:49,260 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Tama naman po yung sponsorship speech mo, tama po lahat yun, I agree. 3869 04:29:49,380 --> 04:29:54,220 Rep. Sergio C.

Dagooc: Kagaya nung 2025, ang target po natin na service areas ay... 3871 04:30:00,000 --> 04:30:07,800 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: 8,692 hektars. Pero yung actual lang po natin na na-accomplish, 3,162. 3872 04:30:08,520 --> 04:30:19,940 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ang nakita ko lang na problema, sa 2027, bumaba yung budget natin, yung sabi mo, mga 19%, 3873 04:30:19,940 --> 04:30:32,800 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: pero nilakihan pa natin yung target area, ginawa natin from 8,620 to 11,153. 3874 04:30:33,220 --> 04:30:44,740 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Huwag nyo na pong sagutin, Distinguished Sponsor, inano ko lang yung atensyon ni Admin Guillen, 3875 04:30:44,740 --> 04:30:48,600 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: na sana, I hope, and pray, 3876 04:30:48,600 --> 04:30:55,620 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: na kahit man lang sa 11,000, maabot natin yung 10,000. 3877 04:30:56,200 --> 04:31:01,580 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Kasi sa experience natin, halos kalahati lang sa target ang na-accomplish. 3878 04:31:02,140 --> 04:31:08,980 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Nakita ko naman yung sipag. I don't know with the other areas, pero yung nasayan ngayon sa Surigao, 3879 04:31:10,140 --> 04:31:14,580 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: medyo masipag ho talaga sila ni Yamis. 3880 04:31:14,580 --> 04:31:17,580 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, ang... 3881 04:31:17,580 --> 04:31:23,160 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: pinapaabot ko lang, Distinguished Sponsor, Mr. Speaker, ay... 3882 04:31:23,160 --> 04:31:26,100 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: dahil tinaasan pa natin lalo yung target, 3883 04:31:26,100 --> 04:31:33,980 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: sana ho ay pagpalain tayo na makuha natin kahit man lang 10,000 doon sa 11,000. 3884 04:31:33,980 --> 04:31:42,300 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, dahil ayaw na po natin may makarating na kasamahan ako at madagdagan yung mga katanungan, 3885 04:31:42,300 --> 04:31:47,040 Rep. Sergio C.

Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 3932 04:36:59,540 --> 04:37:08,480 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: the 2027 budget of the Department of Agriculture. 3934 04:37:12,360 --> 04:37:14,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 3935 04:37:14,940 --> 04:37:22,580 Rep.

Bondoc, M.D.: May we give our sponsorship speech first, which is what I asked the Chair. 3944 04:38:07,220 --> 04:38:09,760 Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Please proceed, Honorable Anna York Bondoc. 3945 04:38:09,760 --> 04:38:10,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much. 3946 04:38:10,760 --> 04:38:15,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: With the indulgence po of the Honorable Speaker, 3947 04:38:16,020 --> 04:38:19,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker and distinguished colleagues in this August Chamber, 3948 04:38:20,260 --> 04:38:26,480 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: I rise today and it is a distinct honor for me to sponsor the proposed fiscal year 2027 budget 3949 04:38:26,480 --> 04:38:32,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: of the Department of Agriculture, including its attached agencies and government corporations 3950 04:38:32,280 --> 04:38:35,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: as contained in the National Expenditure Program. 3951 04:38:35,600 --> 04:38:38,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the proposed budget of the Department stands at 3952 04:38:38,300 --> 04:38:41,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: 198.45 billion, 3953 04:38:41,320 --> 04:38:43,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: or about 17.25 3954 04:38:43,880 --> 04:38:51,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: billion, or 8% lower than the 215.69 billion appropriated last year. 3955 04:38:51,460 --> 04:38:58,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, we enter this budget year with encouraging evidence that our investments are beginning to bear fruit. 3956 04:38:58,660 --> 04:39:07,940 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: In 2025, the Philippine Statistics Authority reported that the agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector grew by 3.1%, 3957 04:39:07,940 --> 04:39:09,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: reversing the 1.5% 3958 04:39:09,860 --> 04:39:12,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: contraction recorded in 2024. 3959 04:39:13,340 --> 04:39:14,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the momentum 3960 04:39:14,800 --> 04:39:16,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: continues to this current year. 3961 04:39:16,900 --> 04:39:24,620 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: In the second quarter alone, the value of agriculture and fisheries production increased by 2.9% year-on-year, 3962 04:39:24,740 --> 04:39:32,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: reaching 452.22 billion at constant 2018 prices. 3963 04:39:32,540 --> 04:39:37,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Crops, livestock, poultry, and fisheries all reported increases in the value of production. 3964 04:39:37,400 --> 04:39:42,710 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We have also seen concrete progress on the ground. 3965 04:39:42,720 --> 04:40:02,030 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Through programs such as Rice for All, 20 Pesos Rice, Kadiwa, enhanced buffer stocking and support provided under the Rice Tariffication Law, the government has continued to address the twin objectives of keeping food accessible to consumers while providing better support to our producers. 3966 04:40:02,040 --> 04:40:14,830 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: However, Mr. Speaker, these gains should not make us rest. This reminds us that growth in value does not automatically mean that physical production is secure. 3967 04:40:14,830 --> 04:40:25,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: This is a central challenge before us. How do we keep food affordable for Filipino families while making farming and fishing profitable enough for Filipino producers to remain in the sector? 3968 04:40:25,740 --> 04:40:30,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The answer cannot be found in one commodity, one agency, or one program. 3969 04:40:30,560 --> 04:40:33,840 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And it requires a complete value chain approach. 3970 04:40:34,480 --> 04:40:47,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And this is why the 2027 budget must continue to protect the gains that we have now reached and must focus on investments that raise productivity, reduce cost, improve farm and fishery infrastructure, 3971 04:40:47,520 --> 04:40:58,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: minimize our post-harvest losses, strengthen our cold chain and logistics systems, expand market access, improve irrigation, modernize our fisheries, 3972 04:40:58,880 --> 04:41:00,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: strengthen animal health and biosecurity, 3973 04:41:00,560 --> 04:41:10,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: reduce smuggling, and make climate change resilience and disaster management and preparation part of every agricultural investment. 3974 04:41:11,520 --> 04:41:21,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, the proposed DA budget is smaller than last year's allocation, but the responsibilities before the department have not decreased. 3975 04:41:21,380 --> 04:41:29,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The department itself has emphasized that the 2027 budget must prioritize productivity, infrastructure, 3976 04:41:29,520 --> 04:41:43,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: post-harvest systems, market access, technology, climate change, adaptation and mitigation, disaster preparedness, and stronger agricultural and fisheries value chains. 3977 04:41:44,020 --> 04:41:48,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The challenge before us, therefore, is not simply how much we appropriate. 3978 04:41:48,620 --> 04:41:53,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: It is how much value we create from every peso that we appropriated. 3979 04:41:53,800 --> 04:41:58,950 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So every peso must translate into a hectare made more productive, 3980 04:41:58,960 --> 04:42:03,230 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: a fisherfolk family made more resilient, 3981 04:42:03,240 --> 04:42:08,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Farmers and fisher folks' children able to go to school, a road that actually connects a farm to a market, 3982 04:42:09,380 --> 04:42:16,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: a crop saved from post-harvest loss, animals protected from disease, smugglers caught and prosecuted, 3983 04:42:16,640 --> 04:42:26,780 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: a farmer protected from disaster, and a Filipino family able to buy safe and nutritious food at a reasonable price. 3984 04:42:27,080 --> 04:42:29,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So let us not go backwards. 3985 04:42:29,520 --> 04:42:38,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: From the gains of last year, instead, let us make the 2027 agricultural investment a forward-looking investment, 3986 04:42:38,120 --> 04:42:45,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: not merely in production, but in productivity, profitability, resilience, and food security. 3987 04:42:46,540 --> 04:42:55,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And again, let us make our 2027 agriculture budget one that truly addresses poverty in the agricultural sector. 3988 04:42:55,760 --> 04:42:59,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And let us make our budget able to entice younger people. 3989 04:42:59,520 --> 04:43:11,020 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We wish to build an agricultural sector where fisher folks and farmers are not simply benefiting from government programs, 3990 04:43:11,480 --> 04:43:18,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: but competitive participants and self-investors in a modern and growing economy. 3991 04:43:18,720 --> 04:43:29,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And ultimately, let us ensure that the measures of this budget will not just be an amount today, but an investment into the future. 3992 04:43:29,520 --> 04:43:38,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So that we may have better harvests, higher income, lower losses, stronger rural communities, and more profitable farmers. 3993 04:43:38,720 --> 04:43:46,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And may that we secure food supply that all Filipinos will be able to experience today and in the future. 3994 04:43:46,920 --> 04:43:57,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And for these reasons, Mr. Speaker, I respectfully urge this honorable house to support the proposed 2027 budget of the Department of Agriculture 3995 04:43:58,520 --> 04:44:02,310 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and its attached agencies and corporations. 3996 04:44:02,320 --> 04:44:09,550 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker, at mabuhay po ang mga magsasakang Pilipino. 3997 04:44:09,560 --> 04:44:11,550 Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Thank you, Honorable Bondoc. Majority Leader. 3998 04:44:13,020 --> 04:44:25,120 Rep. Eduardo R. Rama Jr.: Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize Representative Renee Co of Kabataan Partylist to interpellate the sponsor of the proposed budget of the Department of Agriculture. 3999 04:44:25,120 --> 04:44:29,140 Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: The Honorable Renee Co is recognized. Please proceed. 4000 04:44:29,520 --> 04:44:33,820 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker. Magandang hapon po sa ating distinguished sponsor. 4001 04:44:34,660 --> 04:44:42,400 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Bago po pumasok sa usaping 2027 budget, gusto po muna natin tanungin ang DA at ang attached agencies nito 4002 04:44:42,400 --> 04:44:46,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin naibibigay o naisusumite sa komite 4003 04:44:46,980 --> 04:44:54,760 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang mga formal na dokumento at ulat na ipinangakong maibibigay po sa kinatawa na ito. 4004 04:44:54,760 --> 04:44:59,220 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: In particular po, yun po yung kopya din ng research. 4005 04:44:59,520 --> 04:45:00,000 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Investigation. 4006 04:45:00,000 --> 04:45:07,000 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: report on Pax Silica's impact on farmers at data report po sa anti-rabies program ng 4007 04:45:07,000 --> 04:45:09,260 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Bureau of Animal Industry. 4008 04:45:13,000 --> 04:45:19,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: I'm sorry to hear na hindi po nila natanggap, Mr. Speaker, ang request po nilang further 4009 04:45:19,860 --> 04:45:25,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: information. Would you please repeat po kung ano pong topics ang gusto nyo malaman po, 4010 04:45:25,680 --> 04:45:26,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker? 4011 04:45:26,300 --> 04:45:33,360 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ito po yung research or investigation report on Pax Silica's impact on farmers. And 4012 04:45:33,360 --> 04:45:38,440 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: I'd like to correct myself po, dumating na po yung report tungkol sa anti-rabies program 4013 04:45:38,440 --> 04:45:42,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: from the Bureau of Animal Industry. So yung research and investigation report na lang 4014 04:45:42,980 --> 04:45:52,240 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: po on Pax Silica's impact on farmers na nirequest din po ng kinatawan ng Gabriela Women's 4015 04:45:52,240 --> 04:45:55,740 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Party at nagre-request din po ng kopya itong representasyon nito. 4016 04:45:55,740 --> 04:45:56,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much. 4017 04:45:56,300 --> 04:46:02,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker, Madam, for this question, which I'm sure concerns every 4018 04:46:02,760 --> 04:46:08,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: single Filipino, mas lalo na po kami who live in Central Luzon where the Pax Silica is 4019 04:46:08,980 --> 04:46:15,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: supposed to be located. Unfortunately, I myself wrote the Department of National Defense 4020 04:46:15,800 --> 04:46:22,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: not only asking about why did I write the DND, because it's not only the DA, but it's 4021 04:46:22,740 --> 04:46:25,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: National Defense, which includes food security. 4022 04:46:26,300 --> 04:46:31,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So basically, hindi rin ho sila nakasagot. And their answer to me was, it's the problem 4023 04:46:31,280 --> 04:46:37,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: daw of the BCDA, Mr. Speaker. But I think this is not only the problem of a single agency, 4024 04:46:37,760 --> 04:46:43,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: but a problem of multiple agencies working together. So I have conferred with my colleagues 4025 04:46:43,460 --> 04:46:50,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and most especially, Honorable Secretary Tiu Laurel. And what I was informed is, this 4026 04:46:50,060 --> 04:46:55,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: is an all-encompassing report, so they need time. And end of September is the deadline 4027 04:46:55,500 --> 04:46:56,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: that they gave. 4028 04:46:56,300 --> 04:47:06,680 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: So, Mr. Speaker, inaasahan po na ang agricultural aspect ng Pax Silica, na bahagi po nito ay 4029 04:47:06,680 --> 04:47:11,960 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ano yung mangyayari sa mga magsasakang na roon po ngayon sa site, yung claims nila sa 4030 04:47:11,960 --> 04:47:20,440 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: lands. Ito po ay maisasaklaw ng BCDA report. Ito po ba ay gagawin in collaboration with 4031 04:47:20,440 --> 04:47:25,160 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: DA? So may bahagi rin po yung DA sa paggawa at pagsumite? 4032 04:47:26,300 --> 04:47:30,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: This question again, ano, Mr. Speaker? And this question doesn't only merely include 4033 04:47:30,900 --> 04:47:36,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: the farmers who are located in the land of the Pax Silica itself, but this includes also 4034 04:47:36,880 --> 04:47:43,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: we will be discussing power supply and water supply. Because as we know po, malaki na po 4035 04:47:43,080 --> 04:47:49,600 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: ang pag-aagawan po ng mga magsasaka and Metro Manila regarding the water supply. So 4036 04:47:49,600 --> 04:47:55,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: if we put the water supply needs of Pax Silica, then this becomes an even greater issue. So 4037 04:47:56,300 --> 04:48:02,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: we will not only study those farmers in that area of the Pax Silica, but all farmers within 4038 04:48:02,760 --> 04:48:09,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: a wide radius because of the various resources that are Pax Silica is going to need. So rest 4039 04:48:09,860 --> 04:48:14,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: assured that the Department of Agriculture will be one of the lead agencies in formulating 4040 04:48:14,720 --> 04:48:24,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: this position paper and impact assessment. So siguro I am envisioning DNR, DA, DND, and 4041 04:48:24,880 --> 04:48:26,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: numerous other agencies. 4042 04:48:26,300 --> 04:48:31,840 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: That would come up with a comprehensive report. And as our good secretary has said, the DA 4043 04:48:31,840 --> 04:48:34,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: will comply with their portion by the end of September. 4044 04:48:35,680 --> 04:48:41,400 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker. Magre-request po ang kinatawa na ito ng kopya ng report 4045 04:48:41,400 --> 04:48:47,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: once available pag ito po ay naitapos na by end of September. Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, 4046 04:48:47,980 --> 04:48:55,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang sunod na lang po nating tanong ay tungkol po sa mga datos na binahagi ng DA nung nakaraang 4047 04:48:56,300 --> 04:49:03,340 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na budget briefing. Kung saan nakita din po dito na sa ilalim ng Magna Carta for Agricultural 4048 04:49:03,340 --> 04:49:10,880 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Workers at ng RA 8435, obligado rin ang gobyerno na protektahan ng prime agricultural lands. 4049 04:49:10,880 --> 04:49:19,620 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At magsasagawa ayon sa pangako ng DA na magpapatupad ng geofencing policy upang ihinto ang encroachment 4050 04:49:19,620 --> 04:49:26,060 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ng mga solar power infrastructures sa 3 million hectares ng prime agricultural lands. Mr. 4051 04:49:26,300 --> 04:49:32,740 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Speaker, good sponsor, ano na po na yung legal status ng nasabing gagawing geofencing policy guidelines? 4052 04:49:32,740 --> 04:49:50,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Rest assured that upon conferring with the secretary, geofencing will be completed by the end of December. 4053 04:49:51,340 --> 04:49:54,200 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: End of December po, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4054 04:49:54,200 --> 04:49:56,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, Mr. Speaker. 4055 04:49:56,300 --> 04:50:07,860 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At maaari po bang mapaliwanag kung bakit po up to December pa yung pagsagawa ng geofencing policy guidelines? 4056 04:50:08,420 --> 04:50:17,700 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Meron po bang pagtukoy ng mga prime agricultural lands kung bakit ito po ay magtatagal all the way to 3 months from now? 4057 04:50:20,740 --> 04:50:26,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: First of all, we can't just, Mr. Speaker, we need to give you validated data. 4058 04:50:26,300 --> 04:50:30,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And it will take us time to validate. 4059 04:50:30,760 --> 04:50:37,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Actually, yung ibang prime agricultural lands ay underwater pa due to the massive flooding. 4060 04:50:38,020 --> 04:50:44,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, there's actually a lot of validation that cannot go on at this point because of natural disasters. 4061 04:50:44,260 --> 04:50:48,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, we're waiting for things to settle down upon which we will validate ASAP. 4062 04:50:49,800 --> 04:50:51,940 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4063 04:50:51,940 --> 04:50:56,140 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: As a final confirmation, para po. 4064 04:50:56,300 --> 04:51:01,620 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Sa pagtukoy kung paano nakakatuwang ang DA sa usaping land reform, 4065 04:51:01,620 --> 04:51:11,420 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ano po ba ang strategy o legal framework ng DA upang tiyakin na hindi mailalabas sa agricultural classification ang mga natitirang sakahan? 4066 04:51:11,880 --> 04:51:24,060 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ito po ay pagkatapos ibahagi yung data point last budget briefing na ang average farm size in the Philippines is only around 3.59 to 2.03 hectares. 4067 04:51:24,060 --> 04:51:26,180 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: So, given na nga na kakaunti sila. 4068 04:51:26,300 --> 04:51:33,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At syempre kakaunti pa yung may ganitong democratic na paghatian ng mga agricultural lands, 4069 04:51:34,160 --> 04:51:40,620 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: paano po natin may ensure na hindi mailalabas sa agricultural classification ang mga natitirang sakahan? 4070 04:51:41,180 --> 04:51:47,980 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Lalo na, kinikilala po ba ng DA na mismong kawalan ng land security ng ating mga magsasaka 4071 04:51:47,980 --> 04:51:54,420 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang pangunahing dahilan ng kawalan ng pambansang agricultural productivity and food security? 4072 04:51:54,420 --> 04:51:55,940 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4073 04:51:56,300 --> 04:51:57,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 4074 04:51:58,700 --> 04:52:05,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And that is really a major concern of the Department of Agriculture, is how to preserve the remaining agricultural lands. 4075 04:52:05,640 --> 04:52:09,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And as we know, there are a lot of areas that are rapidly industrializing. 4076 04:52:10,680 --> 04:52:14,580 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: One of the things that we need to do is, there are actually a two-pronged approach. 4077 04:52:14,960 --> 04:52:17,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: One is to provide value to agricultural lands. 4078 04:52:18,020 --> 04:52:26,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the way to do this is to make them more productive, and not only to increase production, but to increase profitability. 4079 04:52:26,300 --> 04:52:34,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Because if all farmers are making a profit from their land, then they would not be so quick to sell them to other persons. 4080 04:52:35,220 --> 04:52:37,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So number one is production and profitability. 4081 04:52:38,460 --> 04:52:46,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So the DA is trying to increase its production, and hopefully also through reduction of post-harvest losses, 4082 04:52:46,460 --> 04:52:55,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: proper irrigation, support for fertilizers and pesticides, and the proper prices, farm gate prices, 4083 04:52:56,300 --> 04:53:03,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: then farmers will be able to make a living, and will not be tempted to sell their lots to speculators and developers. 4084 04:53:04,460 --> 04:53:06,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Secondly, that's the approach towards the farmer. 4085 04:53:07,180 --> 04:53:09,540 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: There also needs to be an approach towards developers. 4086 04:53:10,120 --> 04:53:15,660 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And one of the ways that the DA can do this is to work with the LGUs to discuss conversion. 4087 04:53:15,660 --> 04:53:23,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: There should be strict rules and guidelines, and if necessary, to even put conversion moratoriums, 4088 04:53:23,880 --> 04:53:25,660 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: so that developers will not be able to just... 4089 04:53:26,300 --> 04:53:26,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Convert. 4090 04:53:27,340 --> 04:53:32,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And destroy, unfortunately, irrigated land, which has happened very frequently. 4091 04:53:33,160 --> 04:53:35,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So I would say, there would be a two-pronged approach. 4092 04:53:35,160 --> 04:53:43,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: To raise value for the farmers, so that they won't sell their land, and number two, is to put a stop to conversion, 4093 04:53:43,260 --> 04:53:47,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and unfortunately, destroying irrigated land. 4094 04:53:48,060 --> 04:53:55,160 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Touching on doon po sa nabukas na isang prong, and subprong neto, no, 4095 04:53:55,160 --> 04:53:55,660 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: No. 4096 04:53:55,660 --> 04:53:56,160 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: No. 4097 04:53:56,160 --> 04:54:03,660 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: naaalagaan yung kapakanan ng ating mga magsasaka at yung usaping profitability na ang reality, 4098 04:54:04,040 --> 04:54:13,520 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: tama nga po ang narinig natin sa ating good sponsor, marami pong mga magsasaka natin ang napapwersa na ibenta yung kanilang lupa 4099 04:54:13,520 --> 04:54:20,360 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: dahil hindi profitable generally yung kanilang pagsasaka for many reasons. 4100 04:54:20,360 --> 04:54:31,580 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: To the point nga po na batay din po sa nakaraang hearing, ang agricultural sector ay may 10.44 million registered workers na lang sa RSVSA 4101 04:54:31,580 --> 04:54:41,080 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na sa 20% ng kabuo ang lakas paggawa ng bansa pero 7.9% lang ang ambag sa GDP at mababa ang youth participation rate. 4102 04:54:41,080 --> 04:54:50,080 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Hindi po mataas yung bilang ng mga tuloy-tuloy na nakakapag-replenish ng mga participants in the agricultural sector 4103 04:54:50,360 --> 04:54:55,460 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: at mga mga cultural industry with an average age of 56 years old. 4104 04:54:56,240 --> 04:55:02,620 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Isang bahagi po niyan yung framework by which paano po natin naaabot yung assistance. 4105 04:55:03,080 --> 04:55:12,360 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung saan, more often than not, it would be loan assistance instead na magkaroon ng direct non-collateral production subsidies. 4106 04:55:12,620 --> 04:55:18,020 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ang tanong po natin, Mr. Speaker Good Sponsor, naiintindihan naman natin na merong mga subsidies 4107 04:55:18,020 --> 04:55:30,000 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Pero may kadalasan na one-time labas lang po ito versus yung mas available at unfortunately mas nakakalubog na loan assistance. 4108 04:55:30,340 --> 04:55:34,740 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Bakit po nananatili na ganito ang framework ng DA? 4109 04:55:35,360 --> 04:55:41,300 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Higher dependence on loan assistance instead of direct non-collateral production subsidies. 4110 04:55:41,520 --> 04:55:42,480 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4111 04:55:48,020 --> 04:55:57,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you for that inquiry, Mr. Speaker. 4112 04:55:57,300 --> 04:56:04,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And it does not necessarily mean that if you give credit, then credit is worse than giving direct assistance. 4113 04:56:06,020 --> 04:56:17,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So the DA continues, especially for the rice program, the DA continues to give assistance in terms of seeds, hybrid seeds and inbred seeds through the National Rice Program. 4114 04:56:18,020 --> 04:56:19,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the RCEP program. 4115 04:56:19,800 --> 04:56:22,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA also continues to support with fertilizers. 4116 04:56:22,960 --> 04:56:30,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA has also given diesel assistance, especially nung tumaas po ang presyo ng diesel. 4117 04:56:30,980 --> 04:56:34,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the DA has also continued to give marketing assistance. 4118 04:56:35,780 --> 04:56:41,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So the DA continues to give assistance, direct assistance to farmers. 4119 04:56:41,760 --> 04:56:47,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But again, there is nothing wrong also with giving access to credit. 4120 04:56:48,020 --> 04:56:54,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We also want people to become enterprises and not to become dependent on the government alone. 4121 04:56:54,260 --> 04:57:18,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we want them to be able to graduate actually from assistance, hopefully, and eventually establish themselves as strong, independent, financially stable cooperatives and irrigators associations who are with the proper farm gate prices, very profitable, and able to enter into contracts with the government. 4122 04:57:18,000 --> 04:57:19,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And non-government entities. 4123 04:57:20,460 --> 04:57:23,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And to be able to be strong and stable businesses. 4124 04:57:24,380 --> 04:57:27,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So it's not that we're going to support them forever. 4125 04:57:27,600 --> 04:57:36,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But the DA also has a framework upon which they get those cooperatives and irrigators associations which are not yet mature. 4126 04:57:36,760 --> 04:57:47,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They educate them, give them trainings, give them assistance in terms of mechanization, seeds, fertilizers, until such point that they become matured. 4127 04:57:48,000 --> 04:57:54,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They become profitable, hopefully, with the proper farm gate prices and able to stand on their own, able to take on loans. 4128 04:57:54,860 --> 04:58:11,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: There's nothing wrong with taking on a loan, especially if you know that your cooperative or that your irrigators association will be able to project a good income for the next 5, 3, 5, 8, 10 years and be able to support the loan that you have taken. 4129 04:58:11,740 --> 04:58:17,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, yes, it's good that the DA is giving us subsidies and credit. 4130 04:58:17,000 --> 04:58:17,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And together. 4131 04:58:18,000 --> 04:58:27,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They will help us build strong, mature, and financially capable farmers who are working together to become profitable and to produce adequate food supply. 4132 04:58:28,280 --> 04:58:29,540 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4133 04:58:30,260 --> 04:58:43,860 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Sa dulo naman po nito, ang pinangahawakan po nating mga accounts, kung bakit natin binubukas ito, ay sa pagkukonsulta sa mga magsasaka, ang kalimitan na inuulat nila dalawa po. 4134 04:58:43,860 --> 04:58:47,920 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung usapin po na kung sila po ay maaaring. 4135 04:58:48,000 --> 04:59:01,160 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung makapagkuha ng mga direct subsidies, kalimitan kung may listahan yan, nahihirapan sila o magugulat na lang sila na hindi po sila maka-include dito sa listahan na ito. 4136 04:59:01,160 --> 04:59:17,160 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And syempre, ang mas available na method na assistance kung hindi po maka-avail ng gano'n ay yung sa loan na yun nga po, sa puno't dulo po nito, kung dito po nakakapag-default na paano ma... 4137 04:59:18,000 --> 04:59:38,360 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: i-uplift ng mga magsasaka ang kanilang kahirapan sa ngayon at ito po ay sisingilin pa ng mas malaki sa mga susunod na mga taon, ay hindi rin po nakakapag-encourage na magpanatili sa agricultural industry now that we've seen that mga ilang taon po ang ganitong nagawa. 4138 04:59:38,360 --> 04:59:47,480 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And unfortunately, hindi po siya naka-entice sa mga kabataan o kaya naman sa mga tagamana ng mga sakahan. 4139 04:59:48,000 --> 04:59:52,940 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kaya magpanatili ng ganitong klaseng pag-participasyon sa industriya. 4140 04:59:53,100 --> 05:00:00,000 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ang huling tanong na lang po siguro, Madam Speaker, ay Mr. Speaker, Gunsponsor, paano po ba natin may imbitahan ang mga may... 4141 05:00:00,000 --> 05:00:02,080 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na pumasok sa agricultural sector. 4142 05:00:02,800 --> 05:00:04,280 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung may ganitong mga policies, 4143 05:00:04,720 --> 05:00:05,860 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: nasa punot-dulo po nito, 4144 05:00:06,420 --> 05:00:12,600 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang pinaka-question ay hindi po sa kanila, 4145 05:00:13,400 --> 05:00:14,500 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: hindi nila pagmamayari. 4146 05:00:14,680 --> 05:00:17,140 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Yung sariling lupa, kalimitan, ay kailangan pong upahan. 4147 05:00:17,140 --> 05:00:22,260 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And of course, may limitation yung makikita at maaasaan 4148 05:00:22,260 --> 05:00:24,380 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: sa direct financial and production shields. 4149 05:00:24,380 --> 05:00:38,760 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Paano na lang po may imbitahan ng mga mamamayan 4150 05:00:38,760 --> 05:00:41,900 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na pumasok sa agriculture or bumalik sa agricultural industry 4151 05:00:41,900 --> 05:00:45,200 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: given po yung mga iba't-ibang mga issues na na-raise, Mr. Speaker? 4152 05:00:45,260 --> 05:00:46,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 4153 05:00:46,260 --> 05:00:47,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: There is only one answer to this. 4154 05:00:48,760 --> 05:00:51,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Pag kumikita po, dudumugin po yan ang mga tao. 4155 05:00:52,460 --> 05:00:54,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Di ba, there is a saying na, 4156 05:00:54,680 --> 05:00:57,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: pag nagtayo ka na isang business at kumita si business, 4157 05:00:58,420 --> 05:01:01,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: the next day, parang kabuti na yung mga kapitbahay mo, 4158 05:01:01,680 --> 05:01:03,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: pareho na yung business nyo. 4159 05:01:03,300 --> 05:01:05,620 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So there's only one answer actually to that. 4160 05:01:05,700 --> 05:01:07,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And if it is profitable, 4161 05:01:07,180 --> 05:01:11,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: then therefore, so many people will rush there and start farming. 4162 05:01:12,080 --> 05:01:15,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But while it continues to be unprofitable with low farmgate prices, 4163 05:01:16,120 --> 05:01:17,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: difficult access to market, 4164 05:01:18,300 --> 05:01:20,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: difficult access to direct buyers, 4165 05:01:20,840 --> 05:01:23,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: then there will not be enough persons 4166 05:01:23,140 --> 05:01:24,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: who want to enter, 4167 05:01:24,380 --> 05:01:25,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: who want to enter agriculture. 4168 05:01:25,780 --> 05:01:26,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And secondly, 4169 05:01:26,800 --> 05:01:29,840 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: though I would say that profitability is the number one reason 4170 05:01:29,840 --> 05:01:31,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: that people would enter agriculture, 4171 05:01:32,140 --> 05:01:34,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and there are so many ways to make this profitable. 4172 05:01:34,760 --> 05:01:37,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: One of these is through proper irrigation. 4173 05:01:38,620 --> 05:01:41,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Dati po sa amin, we only used to have one cropping. 4174 05:01:41,520 --> 05:01:42,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: With the coming of the UPRIS, 4175 05:01:42,980 --> 05:01:45,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: the Upper Pampanga River Irrigation System, 4176 05:01:45,740 --> 05:01:49,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: they went from one cropping to three croppings. 4177 05:01:50,200 --> 05:01:53,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So after that, so many people started to plant again. 4178 05:01:53,320 --> 05:01:54,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So profitability, 4179 05:01:54,920 --> 05:01:57,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: but another reason that I would like to give you is culture. 4180 05:01:58,260 --> 05:02:01,660 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We need to change the culture of Filipinos. 4181 05:02:02,180 --> 05:02:03,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Farming is honorable, 4182 05:02:03,420 --> 05:02:04,420 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: farming is profitable, 4183 05:02:04,960 --> 05:02:07,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: at nakita po natin noong COVID-19, 4184 05:02:07,440 --> 05:02:10,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: sino ho ba ang sumikat kung hindi po mga magsasaka? 4185 05:02:10,760 --> 05:02:12,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And there was even a saying on FB na, 4186 05:02:13,440 --> 05:02:17,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: eto po yung dumating na araw na mas mahalaga pala ang bukid kesa sa mall. 4187 05:02:17,740 --> 05:02:19,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we need also to change the culture. 4188 05:02:19,840 --> 05:02:24,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Farming is not for persons who have not gone to school, 4189 05:02:24,640 --> 05:02:27,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: who are, that is the last option in their life. 4190 05:02:28,100 --> 05:02:31,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Farming should be a first option of persons who own land. 4191 05:02:31,540 --> 05:02:33,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: To own land is to be a wealthy person 4192 05:02:33,700 --> 05:02:36,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: because you have collateral in whatever you do. 4193 05:02:37,280 --> 05:02:40,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But if you don't have land, you are not a wealthy person. 4194 05:02:40,340 --> 05:02:43,780 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasi po, wala po kayong maipreprenda pag meron nung may sakit. 4195 05:02:44,500 --> 05:02:50,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: At wala po kayong, that farming in your land is an extra backup po sa pamilya. 4196 05:02:51,180 --> 05:02:54,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So again, make it profitable. 4197 05:02:54,380 --> 05:02:56,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And number two, make it honorable. 4198 05:02:57,280 --> 05:03:00,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And you will have, do dumugin po tayo ng mga magsasaka. 4199 05:03:00,920 --> 05:03:02,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: All below the age of 30. 4200 05:03:03,780 --> 05:03:04,920 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. 4201 05:03:05,100 --> 05:03:09,020 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: I'd love to buy in to the vision of the distinguished sponsor here. 4202 05:03:09,580 --> 05:03:15,340 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Unfortunately, yung nakikita po natin na issue ng profitability ay napakahirap 4203 05:03:15,340 --> 05:03:23,440 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: dahil po hindi nga po makasurvive ang isang farmer given yung state of the market ngayon. 4204 05:03:23,440 --> 05:03:24,220 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Hindi lang po. 4205 05:03:24,380 --> 05:03:33,180 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ito issue siyempre ng paano po nakakapagset ng prices dito sa mga produce na ginagawa ng ating mga farmers. 4206 05:03:33,180 --> 05:03:40,280 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Pero napapwersa silang makipagkumpetensya sa iba't ibang mga imports na pumapasok at pinaflood yung markets natin. 4207 05:03:40,620 --> 05:03:49,260 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At ngayon po may mga batas po tayo na rather than mas protektahan kung paano makakapagbigay ng pagkain at ng input 4208 05:03:49,260 --> 05:03:53,560 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ng galing sa farmers natin sa iba't ibang merkado dito sa ating bansa. 4209 05:03:54,020 --> 05:03:54,180 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Na may... 4210 05:03:54,380 --> 05:03:55,560 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: May goal for export, diba? 4211 05:03:55,940 --> 05:04:02,260 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ang mas na-encourage po ay paano mag-import at paano mas ma-welcome yung mas mababang presyo ng import dito sa ating bansa. 4212 05:04:02,260 --> 05:04:06,540 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Yun naman po yung nakita natin, narinig din natin from the Department of Agriculture before 4213 05:04:06,540 --> 05:04:13,620 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and compounding issues po ito kung bakit mas nahihirapan ang mga magsasaka natin at nahihirapan silang mag-maintain sa industriya. 4214 05:04:13,940 --> 05:04:19,220 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Nonetheless, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, ang ending naman po nito ay kailangan po may pagbabago sa ating batas. 4215 05:04:19,640 --> 05:04:24,180 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung saan yung rice importation and dependence po. 4216 05:04:24,380 --> 05:04:31,280 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Sa ating agricultural imports, bayak, ng iba't ibang produce ay kailangan na pong matanggal. 4217 05:04:31,740 --> 05:04:37,660 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At syempre, yung genuine agrarian land reform ay kailangan na rin pong matrabaho, hindi lang sa batas, 4218 05:04:37,800 --> 05:04:43,680 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: pero paano po ito mabibigyan ng pangil ang Department of Agriculture and Department of Agrarian Reform na gawin. 4219 05:04:44,100 --> 05:04:46,660 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: For now, Mr. Speaker, I no longer have any further questions. 4220 05:04:46,880 --> 05:04:47,780 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Thank you for the time. 4221 05:04:48,180 --> 05:04:49,320 Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: To the distinguished sponsor. 4222 05:04:49,760 --> 05:04:50,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much, po. 4223 05:04:54,380 --> 05:05:03,140 Deputy Speaker Jefferson F. Khonghun: Majority Leader. 4224 05:05:04,300 --> 05:05:15,860 Rep. Eduardo R. Rama Jr.: Mr. Speaker, next to interpellate the sponsor, I move to recognize Representative Sergio Dagooc of APEC Partylist. 4225 05:05:16,600 --> 05:05:18,620 Deputy Speaker Jefferson F. Khonghun: The Honorable Sergio Dagooc is now recognized. 4226 05:05:24,380 --> 05:05:31,140 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 4227 05:05:31,320 --> 05:05:32,360 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Majority Leader. 4228 05:05:34,300 --> 05:05:38,240 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Magandang hapon po sa ating kagalang-galang na sponsor. 4229 05:05:39,320 --> 05:05:44,980 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Would the distinguished sponsor yield to a few clarificatory questions? 4230 05:05:45,900 --> 05:05:53,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: It would be our pleasure, Mr. Speaker, to be able to answer the interpolation po of our Honorable Colleague. 4231 05:05:54,380 --> 05:05:56,480 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Distinguished Sponsor. 4232 05:05:57,660 --> 05:06:00,360 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor, 4233 05:06:02,260 --> 05:06:10,900 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: mayroon po tayong registry system for basic sectors in agriculture or RSBSA. Tama po ba? 4234 05:06:14,900 --> 05:06:21,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, we have, Mr. Speaker and Distinguished Colleague, we have the RSBSA. 4235 05:06:22,300 --> 05:06:23,900 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ito po ba ay... 4236 05:06:24,380 --> 05:06:33,300 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ginagamit natin ngayon, gumagana po ba ang registry system na ito, Distinguished Sponsor? 4237 05:06:33,920 --> 05:06:39,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, po. And we use it as a... We are using it, Mr. Speaker. 4238 05:06:41,720 --> 05:06:54,060 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Gano po kahalaga ang registry system na ito sa lahat ng ginagawa ng ating Department of Agriculture, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague? 4239 05:06:54,380 --> 05:06:57,020 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mahalaga po ito. 4240 05:06:58,960 --> 05:07:01,920 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Bakit po, Distinguished Colleague? 4241 05:07:02,780 --> 05:07:16,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Well, we use it po as the basis for determining po yung mga tulong po natin sa seeds, fertilizers, our gas and diesel allowances. 4242 05:07:17,300 --> 05:07:21,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, it is the basic registry that makes sure that you are a farmer. 4243 05:07:22,660 --> 05:07:24,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And nakababa po yan sa bawat area. 4244 05:07:24,380 --> 05:07:30,940 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They are aware kung sino po yung mga magsasaka nila at kung ano po, gano kalaki ho yung sinaka nila. 4245 05:07:31,660 --> 05:07:37,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And they also provide data po who is planting during the wet season, dry season. 4246 05:07:37,300 --> 05:07:41,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, there's a lot of information contained in the RSBSA. 4247 05:07:42,040 --> 05:07:43,960 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Distinguished Sponsor. 4248 05:07:43,960 --> 05:07:45,960 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Tama po ba yung... 4249 05:07:48,460 --> 05:07:53,740 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: sa panalileksiko na in 2025, 4250 05:07:54,380 --> 05:07:58,380 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: yung failed validation activities natin 4251 05:07:58,380 --> 05:08:04,960 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: to update personal and farm parser information 4252 05:08:04,960 --> 05:08:10,560 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: were inadequately conducted in nine regions. 4253 05:08:11,480 --> 05:08:12,200 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Tama po ba yun? 4254 05:08:21,220 --> 05:08:24,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Unfortunately, tama po kayo that the RSBSA does not? 4255 05:08:24,460 --> 05:08:38,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: It's actually an undercount at hindi po lahat ng mga farmers ay nakaka-capture po ng RSBSA because we are relying a lot on the LGU and the MAO or the Municipal Agricultural Workers. 4256 05:08:38,920 --> 05:08:50,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But again, limited din po sila. So we do not have direct access to the barangay level, from the municipal to the barangay level because it was devolved. 4257 05:08:50,140 --> 05:08:53,940 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But it would be very good if there were extension workers. 4258 05:08:57,220 --> 05:09:17,300 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Naitama na po ba ito? Kasi kaya po, kaya ko po naitanong ito dahil marami po tayong mga farmers na nagre-reklamo na hindi nakarating sa kanila yung mga tulong galing sa ating pamahalaan 4259 05:09:17,300 --> 05:09:19,300 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: through the Department of... 4260 05:09:20,140 --> 05:09:21,040 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ...agriculture. 4261 05:09:22,240 --> 05:09:30,180 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Personally, alam ko naman po na maganda po yung pamamalakad ngayon ng Department of Agriculture. 4262 05:09:31,080 --> 05:09:47,040 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Kaya ko lang inano tong issue na to dahil may mga nagsasabi sa akin na medyo may problema yung pagkaano natin sa registry system na to na siyang nagiging dahilan. 4263 05:09:47,760 --> 05:09:50,020 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Doon sa problema na yun. 4264 05:09:50,140 --> 05:10:06,800 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, can the Distinguished Sponsor commit na maitama po natin yung kung ano man yung mga kamalian 4265 05:10:06,800 --> 05:10:12,940 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ng mga nagdaang taon, mga nagdaang administration sa Department of Agriculture? 4266 05:10:12,940 --> 05:10:19,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Tama po kayo. Tama po kayo that that all, in fact, 4267 05:10:20,140 --> 05:10:24,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: not all farmers are covered or registered. 4268 05:10:25,140 --> 05:10:32,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: In fact, a large, I would say, 40% po are not captured by the RSBSA. 4269 05:10:32,580 --> 05:10:36,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, pag nagbibigayan po ng mga tulong, pag wala po kayo sa RSBSA, 4270 05:10:38,000 --> 05:10:39,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: hindi po kayo matutulungan. 4271 05:10:40,160 --> 05:10:43,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, actually, to let you know, 4272 05:10:45,380 --> 05:10:47,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: distinguished speaker and honorable, 4273 05:10:47,980 --> 05:10:51,540 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker and Distinguished Colleague, 4274 05:10:51,740 --> 05:10:53,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: we continue every day. 4275 05:10:54,060 --> 05:11:00,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: You can go to the MAO or the Municipality and register yourself as a farmer every day. 4276 05:11:01,420 --> 05:11:03,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: I-share ko lang po yung nangyari sa amin. 4277 05:11:04,900 --> 05:11:06,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasi fisher folks po kami. 4278 05:11:06,840 --> 05:11:08,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And nobody registered themselves kasi malayo. 4279 05:11:10,360 --> 05:11:11,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And what's the point? 4280 05:11:12,000 --> 05:11:13,660 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: On the day na nagbigay po ng ayuda, 4281 05:11:13,660 --> 05:11:17,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and they only received, those who received were those registered. 4282 05:11:17,980 --> 05:11:20,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The next day, everybody registered. 4283 05:11:22,680 --> 05:11:26,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, what we need po are more people. 4284 05:11:26,580 --> 05:11:31,420 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But again, we cannot wait for the farmers to go to the municipio or to the DA. 4285 05:11:32,180 --> 05:11:36,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Tayo mismo, we have to go down and find the farmers and register them. 4286 05:11:37,140 --> 05:11:40,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, it would help a lot if there were extension workers. 4287 05:11:41,080 --> 05:11:46,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And the DA is strongly pushing for extension workers down to the barangay level, 4288 05:11:46,240 --> 05:11:47,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: down to the purok level. 4289 05:11:47,980 --> 05:11:49,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Who will go around. 4290 05:11:49,400 --> 05:11:50,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Hindi po kaya talaga ng MAO ito. 4291 05:11:51,600 --> 05:11:55,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And again, mas maganda po talaga sana kung may extension workers. 4292 05:11:57,140 --> 05:11:58,860 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Distinguished Sponsor. 4293 05:11:59,080 --> 05:12:01,200 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ang hinahanap po lang is, 4294 05:12:02,040 --> 05:12:06,060 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ano po yung ginagawa natin ngayon? 4295 05:12:07,320 --> 05:12:14,980 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: What concrete steps that the Department of Agriculture is doing at present 4296 05:12:14,980 --> 05:12:17,980 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: para lang ma-resolve itong issue sa region? 4297 05:12:17,980 --> 05:12:20,860 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ang mag-registration natin ng ating mga farmers. 4298 05:12:21,060 --> 05:12:29,760 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Kasi papalpak po ang lahat ng programa ng ating gobyerno na pinupunduhan natin 4299 05:12:29,760 --> 05:12:34,660 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: kung mayroon pong magre-reklamo na hindi sila napasama. 4300 05:12:34,800 --> 05:12:35,740 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ano po yung ginagawa? 4301 05:12:36,320 --> 05:12:39,140 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: To be specific, ano po yung ginagawa natin ngayon? 4302 05:12:39,280 --> 05:12:42,100 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: To correct yung problema dati. 4303 05:12:44,520 --> 05:12:47,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Definitely po, I strongly agree with you, Mr. Speaker. 4304 05:12:47,980 --> 05:12:49,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And Distinguished Colleague. 4305 05:12:49,520 --> 05:12:52,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: However, the DA's staff is only up to the region. 4306 05:12:53,200 --> 05:12:56,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And we need people down to the barangay talaga. 4307 05:12:56,400 --> 05:12:57,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So mayroon na tayong mga tao. 4308 05:12:57,280 --> 05:13:00,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And what we would need is 23,000 extension workers. 4309 05:13:00,220 --> 05:13:05,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: More than that, the DA is also conducting an information drive. 4310 05:13:06,500 --> 05:13:12,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, using media, social media, traditional media, 4311 05:13:13,040 --> 05:13:16,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and also spreading the word against different farmers. 4312 05:13:16,700 --> 05:13:17,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We encourage persons. 4313 05:13:17,980 --> 05:13:20,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasi hindi po natin sila kayang puntahan lahat eh. 4314 05:13:20,440 --> 05:13:21,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kulang ng tao. 4315 05:13:21,620 --> 05:13:25,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we're hoping that they would also realize that they need to be registered. 4316 05:13:25,900 --> 05:13:28,940 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So hoping na sila naman ho ang magpaparegister din. 4317 05:13:29,320 --> 05:13:34,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Lalo na po kung nagbigay ng ayuda and then they did not receive due to their non-registration. 4318 05:13:34,480 --> 05:13:36,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Hopefully, sila na rin po ang pupunta. 4319 05:13:37,240 --> 05:13:40,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But again, we cannot rely on the farmer to go to us. 4320 05:13:40,280 --> 05:13:42,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We should go down to them. 4321 05:13:43,320 --> 05:13:44,420 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Distinguished Sponsor, 4322 05:13:45,420 --> 05:13:47,360 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: di ba mayroon naman po tayong mga... 4323 05:13:47,980 --> 05:13:52,600 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: municipal agriculturist, city agriculturist, 4324 05:13:52,600 --> 05:13:57,920 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: hindi po ba natin pwedeng itap yung kanilang mga opisina 4325 05:13:57,920 --> 05:14:07,160 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: para lang maitama natin yung pagkukulang dito sa registry na ito? 4326 05:14:07,240 --> 05:14:09,520 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Kasi napakahalaga po ito. 4327 05:14:09,660 --> 05:14:14,260 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ako mismo, maraming mga membro ng pamilya ko, 4328 05:14:14,700 --> 05:14:16,260 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: kasi we are farmers, 4329 05:14:17,980 --> 05:14:25,420 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: hindi nga napasama doon sa listahan. 4330 05:14:26,940 --> 05:14:28,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Tama po kayo dyan. 4331 05:14:28,980 --> 05:14:34,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA and the League of Municipalities, League of Presidents, League of Barangays, 4332 05:14:34,840 --> 05:14:36,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: dapat ho magtulungan sila. 4333 05:14:36,960 --> 05:14:41,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasi kawawa rin ho yung mga tao nila pag hindi po nakaregister. 4334 05:14:41,580 --> 05:14:45,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we need the cooperation po of every LGU. 4335 05:14:45,280 --> 05:14:47,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasi sila po yung may municipal agriculturist, 4336 05:14:47,980 --> 05:14:49,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: city agriculturist. 4337 05:14:49,620 --> 05:14:54,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So the DA has mentioned to me that they are rolling out self-registration. 4338 05:14:55,100 --> 05:14:58,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Dapat ho, siguro dapat online na ho yung registration. 4339 05:14:58,420 --> 05:14:58,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Ano po? 4340 05:14:59,280 --> 05:14:59,940 Rep. Anna York P.

Dagooc: Can the good sponsor 4421 05:17:46,460 --> 05:17:49,140 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: explain why 4422 05:17:49,140 --> 05:17:50,280 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: are we transferring 4423 05:17:50,280 --> 05:17:53,040 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: 10 billion in a lump sum 4424 05:17:53,040 --> 05:17:54,960 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: directly to 4425 05:17:54,960 --> 05:17:57,220 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: FTI for the 4426 05:17:57,220 --> 05:17:58,660 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Rice for All program? 4427 05:18:06,920 --> 05:18:23,870 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, Mr. Speaker and Honorable Distinguished Colleague. It says here, for the expansion in 2026, a total of 10 billion has been released directly to Food Terminal Incorporated, the DA?s partner in implementing the Rice for All program. 4428 05:18:23,880 --> 05:18:27,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And sila po ang magbabayad po nung rice. 4429 05:18:27,220 --> 05:18:29,020 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So ito ay 4430 05:18:29,020 --> 05:18:32,430 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: nangyari naman. 4431 05:18:32,440 --> 05:18:39,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: During the first half of 2026, the program achieved 33.2% of its annual operational target, 4432 05:18:40,360 --> 05:18:48,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: generating P586.16 million in total revenue against the funds allocated for procurement and distribution. 4433 05:18:49,060 --> 05:18:50,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, nangyari naman po yun. 4434 05:18:50,400 --> 05:19:00,780 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, we understand that the entire, the whole 10 billion budget for affordable rice, logistics, 4435 05:19:01,500 --> 05:19:09,420 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: warehouse leasing is mandated to be released directly to FTI, which is a government corporation. 4436 05:19:10,040 --> 05:19:14,920 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: However, sa tingin ba ng kagalang-galang butihing sponsor, 4437 05:19:14,920 --> 05:19:20,380 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: why are we handing over a massive pile of cash? 4438 05:19:20,400 --> 05:19:28,700 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: directly to a corporate entity instead of having the Department of Agriculture manage it 4439 05:19:28,700 --> 05:19:33,220 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: through normal and highly regulated channels? 4440 05:19:36,060 --> 05:19:41,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Unfortunately po, thank you for pointing that out, Honorable Colleague, Mr. Speaker. 4441 05:19:42,180 --> 05:19:44,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The NFA has no mandate to sell rice. 4442 05:19:44,500 --> 05:19:46,940 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, that's why it has to be through the food terminal. 4443 05:19:48,940 --> 05:19:49,580 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, 4444 05:19:50,400 --> 05:19:52,540 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Distinguished Sponsor, 4445 05:19:53,380 --> 05:19:57,840 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: okay lang po ba sa Department of Agriculture yung ganitong arrangement 4446 05:19:57,840 --> 05:20:07,780 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: na sa kanila nailagak yung pundo pero ibibigay nila sa other entity in lump sum? 4447 05:20:16,080 --> 05:20:19,580 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Distinguished Colleague, Mr. Speaker, 4448 05:20:20,400 --> 05:20:25,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: so far we've been doing, the D.I. has been doing this and have not encountered any major problems. 4449 05:20:27,120 --> 05:20:35,820 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, what particular safeguards do we have in place to guarantee that this amount, no, 4450 05:20:36,720 --> 05:20:42,160 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ay nagagamit po ng tama, no? 4451 05:20:44,480 --> 05:20:48,200 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Nakailang, nakailang taon na po ba tayo na ginagawa natin to? 4452 05:20:50,400 --> 05:20:57,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: This is only the first year, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague. 4453 05:20:57,360 --> 05:21:03,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, makikita po natin, so far, in the first year, eight months, it's going well. 4454 05:21:04,440 --> 05:21:12,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But, we are open to discussing other safeguards po just to make sure na 4455 05:21:12,240 --> 05:21:16,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: they will be faithfuls towards po ng ating 10B. 4456 05:21:16,120 --> 05:21:18,480 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Distinguished Sponsor. 4457 05:21:18,960 --> 05:21:20,240 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Hindi ko na po i- 4458 05:21:20,240 --> 05:21:26,400 Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: i-tanong tong iba, no, for the interest of time. 4459 05:21:26,840 --> 05:21:30,560 Rep. Sergio C.

Iris Marie Demesa Montes: Ilang katanungan lamang po mula sa kababaihan, kabalikatan para sa kapakalan at kaunlaran ng bayan. 4468 05:21:59,640 --> 05:22:18,200 Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes: On importation po, may I ask the DA, given the heavy reliance on imports, what concrete strategies are funded in the 2027 budget to reduce import dependence and achieve measurable self-sufficiency targets? 4469 05:22:18,200 --> 05:22:20,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you for that. 4470 05:22:20,980 --> 05:22:39,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And, um, we'd like to clarify that we are, we are producing, uh, we are, though there are importations, the importations are only meant, Mr. Speaker, to cover the deficit, which happens po sa local production. 4471 05:22:39,120 --> 05:22:47,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And we are, though we are, uh, we are, uh, 70% self-sufficient. 4472 05:22:47,320 --> 05:22:48,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, uh, 4473 05:22:48,200 --> 05:22:48,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: our stocks 4474 05:22:48,800 --> 05:22:50,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: have 12% local production, 4475 05:22:51,400 --> 05:22:52,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: 62% in imports. 4476 05:22:54,340 --> 05:22:58,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We are not, uh, relying on imports alone. 4477 05:22:58,000 --> 05:23:10,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: In fact, we have a very strong rice program, and these are covered po by two main programs, which is the National Rice Program and the RCEF, or, which came about from the rice terrification law. 4478 05:23:10,600 --> 05:23:17,740 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Both of them have seeds distributions with, um, hybrid, hybrid seeds and inbred seeds. 4479 05:23:18,200 --> 05:23:30,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And there's also infrastructures, trainings, fertilizers, pesticides, and marketing, plus, uh, support po of the farm-to-market roads and irrigation projects. 4480 05:23:30,340 --> 05:23:37,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, um, we would definitely like to decrease our, um, need to import. 4481 05:23:38,500 --> 05:23:48,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And hopefully, um, we are, um, actually advocating more tariffs. 4482 05:23:48,200 --> 05:23:51,460 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: for, for importing. 4483 05:23:51,880 --> 05:23:54,100 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, we are not encouraging imports. 4484 05:23:54,580 --> 05:24:02,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We are encouraging and supporting the needs of local farmers so that they may be able to increase our production. 4485 05:24:02,620 --> 05:24:07,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And again, Mr. Speaker, it, why do we need to encourage local production? 4486 05:24:07,920 --> 05:24:10,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Because the world market is volatile. 4487 05:24:10,780 --> 05:24:14,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And there is the strait of form, Iran-Iraq war, increased prices. 4488 05:24:14,800 --> 05:24:17,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: All of which, um, are actually 4489 05:24:18,080 --> 05:24:19,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: actually increasing 4490 05:24:19,880 --> 05:24:22,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: or making it more difficult to import. 4491 05:24:22,560 --> 05:24:24,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we may come to a time that 4492 05:24:24,040 --> 05:24:25,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: we have the money to import but there is nothing 4493 05:24:25,980 --> 05:24:28,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: to import. So it is best, 4494 05:24:28,420 --> 05:24:30,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: the best in which we are 4495 05:24:30,160 --> 05:24:31,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: following our 4496 05:24:31,920 --> 05:24:33,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: policy is to support local 4497 05:24:33,900 --> 05:24:36,020 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: farmers, make it profitable for 4498 05:24:36,020 --> 05:24:38,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: each and every farmer, and to encourage 4499 05:24:38,160 --> 05:24:39,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: more farmers to continue to plant 4500 05:24:39,860 --> 05:24:41,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and to give them value. 4501 05:24:42,160 --> 05:24:43,620 Rep.

Iris Marie Demesa Montes: gains are sustainable? 4551 05:26:45,020 --> 05:26:45,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: One of the 4552 05:26:45,880 --> 05:26:47,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: best way to sustain this is to increase 4553 05:26:47,680 --> 05:26:49,600 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: the budget of the Department of Agriculture. 4554 05:26:50,180 --> 05:26:52,240 Rep. Anna York P.

De Jesus: What happened after the employees 5039 05:44:13,860 --> 05:44:15,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: were separated on August 1, 2016? 5040 05:44:15,860 --> 05:44:17,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Were the 5041 05:44:17,860 --> 05:44:19,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: ERIP benefits immediately 5042 05:44:19,860 --> 05:44:21,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: released? 5043 05:44:21,860 --> 05:44:23,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you for that 5044 05:44:23,860 --> 05:44:25,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: concern for our employees, Mr. Speaker. 5045 05:44:25,860 --> 05:44:27,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And thank you 5046 05:44:27,860 --> 05:44:29,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: for that question, honorable 5047 05:44:29,860 --> 05:44:31,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: colleague. 5048 05:44:35,860 --> 05:44:37,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Rest assured that the DA 5049 05:44:37,860 --> 05:44:39,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: is 5050 05:44:39,860 --> 05:44:41,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: fully compliant with all DOLE 5051 05:44:41,860 --> 05:44:43,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and, sorry, 5052 05:44:43,860 --> 05:44:45,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: with all Civil Service Commission 5053 05:44:45,860 --> 05:44:47,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: requirements. So, 5054 05:44:47,860 --> 05:44:49,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: kung ano po ang dapat sa mga empleyado, 5055 05:44:49,860 --> 05:44:51,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: eh handa po kami silang tulungan. 5056 05:44:51,860 --> 05:44:53,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay. So, 5057 05:44:53,860 --> 05:44:55,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: follow up question, but they were 5058 05:44:55,860 --> 05:44:57,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: already considered separated from 5059 05:44:57,860 --> 05:44:59,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: the service. They were no longer 5060 05:44:59,860 --> 05:45:01,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: included. 5061 05:45:01,860 --> 05:45:12,710 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: beginning August 1, 2016. Is this correct? 5062 05:45:12,710 --> 05:45:23,750 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Ah, that is correct, Mr. Speaker. Rest assured, Mr. Speaker, honorable and esteemed colleagues, that the SRA will be looking into this and kung ano man ang dapat po sa mga empleyado ay ibibigay naman po sa kanila. 5063 05:45:23,750 --> 05:45:27,420 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you very much for that concern. 5064 05:45:27,420 --> 05:45:48,180 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor, let me go straight to the point. On November 26, 2024, the Supreme Court decided Villanueva Jr. v. Sugar Regulatory Administration involving 75 former SRA officials and employees. What did the court rule regarding the entitlement to the ERIP benefits? 5065 05:46:05,160 --> 05:46:19,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And the court held that the petitioners or the 75 former SRA officials and employees became entitled by law and equity to the retirement benefits under the SRA's approved RAT plan. 5066 05:46:19,680 --> 05:46:27,260 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor. And what exactly did the Supreme Court order the government? 5067 05:46:27,420 --> 05:46:48,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Honorable Colleague. The court ordered the SRA, the GCG, and the DBM to determine, process, and facilitate the release of the retirement benefits to which the petitioners are entitled under the SRA's 2015 RAT plan with due and deliberate dispatch. 5068 05:46:50,340 --> 05:46:57,400 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you. I'm done with that line of questioning because the Supreme Court already made a decision. 5069 05:46:57,420 --> 05:47:16,580 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: And you already provided that to GCG. So, moving forward, this is my favorite topic, rice industry import dependence. On rice, the Department of Production target for 2027 is approximately 19 million metric tons. Is this correct? 5070 05:47:17,760 --> 05:47:19,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, Mr. Speaker. 5071 05:47:21,120 --> 05:47:27,400 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: At the same time, the rice imports were projected to exceed 5 million metric tons. 5072 05:47:27,420 --> 05:47:31,980 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: 5 million metric tons by the end of 2026. Is that right, Mr. Speaker? 5073 05:47:32,260 --> 05:47:35,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes, again, Mr. Speaker, that is proper and correct. 5074 05:47:35,980 --> 05:47:46,500 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you. Why does import dependence remain this high despite the substantial public resources being poured into the rice sector? 5075 05:47:46,500 --> 05:47:46,640 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Madam Speaker. 5076 05:47:57,420 --> 05:48:09,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Again, Mr. Speaker, as assured, that it is not the DA's policy to encourage importation. 5077 05:48:09,360 --> 05:48:19,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We have to import due to unexpected developments that happen in the agricultural sector, 5078 05:48:19,280 --> 05:48:26,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: which includes El Nino and various climate change and disasters. 5079 05:48:26,220 --> 05:48:34,840 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Plus, again, we also did not expect the rapid increase in fertilizer. 5080 05:48:36,740 --> 05:48:43,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We also did not anticipate the increase in diesel, which I believe is a worldwide problem 5081 05:48:43,180 --> 05:48:48,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and has affected rice farmers, not only in the Philippines, but including Vietnam, China, etc. 5082 05:48:49,180 --> 05:48:54,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, all of these were unexpected developments that unfortunately forced us to import. 5083 05:48:55,120 --> 05:48:56,200 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 5084 05:48:56,220 --> 05:49:04,640 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Madam Sponsor, as we know, I think I've been asking our good Secretary last year or a year or two, 5085 05:49:05,320 --> 05:49:11,440 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: that, okay pa rin po ba tayo magtanim ng bigas? 5086 05:49:12,020 --> 05:49:16,780 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Because right now, I think 19 million metric tons is a lot, no? 5087 05:49:17,240 --> 05:49:20,060 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Kumpara mo, and we still need to import. 5088 05:49:20,060 --> 05:49:26,060 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, is it high time mag-iba na tayo ng ating production? 5089 05:49:26,220 --> 05:49:28,140 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Ito, do you think is that feasible? 5090 05:49:28,960 --> 05:49:32,080 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: And I think the last time that I spoke with the good Secretary, 5091 05:49:32,860 --> 05:49:37,840 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: we can use the Candaba Swamp, which your area, Madam Sponsor, am I right? 5092 05:49:39,880 --> 05:49:40,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Tama po kayo. 5093 05:49:41,360 --> 05:49:44,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The 4th District of Pampanga covers the Candaba Swamp. 5094 05:49:44,560 --> 05:49:51,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And I would like to share, Mr. Speaker, that the Candaba Swamp is not only in Candaba, 5095 05:49:51,320 --> 05:49:54,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: but includes 4 municipalities in Pampanga, 5096 05:49:54,320 --> 05:50:00,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: which includes San Simon, San Luis, Apalit, and Candaba, 5097 05:50:00,860 --> 05:50:06,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and including municipalities po in Bulacan, that includes San Miguel, San Rafael, and San Ildefonso. 5098 05:50:07,500 --> 05:50:10,700 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Madam, Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor. 5099 05:50:11,240 --> 05:50:13,300 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Let me get to my last 3 questions. 5100 05:50:14,360 --> 05:50:15,900 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor, 5101 05:50:15,900 --> 05:50:21,360 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Congress enacted the Anti-Agricultural Economic Sabotage Act 5102 05:50:21,360 --> 05:50:23,900 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: because it's smuggling directly, 5103 05:50:24,320 --> 05:50:26,880 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: directly hurts Filipino producers. 5104 05:50:27,780 --> 05:50:31,500 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Based on the latest data as of July 7, 2026, 5105 05:50:32,800 --> 05:50:39,780 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: the Bureau of Customs reported 24 criminal cases involving agricultural smuggling, 5106 05:50:40,440 --> 05:50:45,120 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: 15 cases endorsed for prosecution under the new law. 5107 05:50:45,860 --> 05:50:48,980 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Now, my questions to the good Sponsor, Mr. Speaker, 5108 05:50:48,980 --> 05:50:53,960 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: what is DA's specific role in identifying, 5109 05:50:54,320 --> 05:50:56,780 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: and building these cases? 5110 05:51:05,580 --> 05:51:09,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker, distinguished colleague. 5111 05:51:09,880 --> 05:51:16,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA plays a big role in the anti-economic sabotage and anti-smuggling 5112 05:51:16,980 --> 05:51:22,620 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: trusts and policies and activities of this government. 5113 05:51:22,620 --> 05:51:30,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And they collaborate po in intelligence, sino po ang nag-import at kung saan na wala pong tamang mga papeles. 5114 05:51:31,820 --> 05:51:42,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And they cooperate closely po with law enforcement that includes PNP, the Bureau of Customs, 5115 05:51:42,180 --> 05:51:49,580 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: and they also collaborate po with the Department of Justice later on and the NBI for the filing of cases. 5116 05:51:49,580 --> 05:52:04,380 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: However, I would like to point out that the DA, despite having an Inspectorate and Enforcement Division 5117 05:52:04,380 --> 05:52:13,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: headed by very inspired and hardworking persons, they still lack the enforcement capacity. 5118 05:52:13,160 --> 05:52:16,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So hindi po sila yung frontliners. 5119 05:52:16,680 --> 05:52:19,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: I would also like to share that they're putting up 5120 05:52:19,580 --> 05:52:36,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: all around the country. They lack budget, their employees are J.O., and they even lack cars. 5121 05:52:36,660 --> 05:52:39,600 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So what actions are taken to combat smuggling and hoarding? 5122 05:52:40,180 --> 05:52:46,540 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA has sent inspection teams to the ports of Manila, Manila International Container Port, 5123 05:52:47,120 --> 05:52:49,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Naia, Batangas, Subic, Cebu, Davao. 5124 05:52:49,580 --> 05:52:53,900 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Sambuanga, and Cagayan de Oro to monitor and support border inspections. 5125 05:52:54,480 --> 05:52:57,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So despite the limited budget, ginagawa po nila yun. 5126 05:52:57,640 --> 05:53:09,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Meron din po silang DAIE teams to monitor and witness the conduct of the second border inspection and condemnation activities. 5127 05:53:09,660 --> 05:53:14,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Meron din po silang Special Operations Group to serve as the official representative of the office 5128 05:53:14,060 --> 05:53:16,240 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: during high-risk enforcement operations. 5129 05:53:16,240 --> 05:53:19,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And they have an investigation branch to monitor. 5130 05:53:19,500 --> 05:53:21,580 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: To monitor the implementation of banner programs. 5131 05:53:22,580 --> 05:53:28,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And to monitor also illegal smuggling and economic sabotage activities. 5132 05:53:28,840 --> 05:53:36,300 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So despite their limited budget due to limited fiscal space, 5133 05:53:36,680 --> 05:53:44,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: they are doing a variety of activities to be able to support our anti-smuggling and anti-economic sabotage policies. 5134 05:53:44,960 --> 05:53:48,520 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor. 5135 05:53:49,500 --> 05:53:49,900 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Last question. 5136 05:53:50,460 --> 05:53:53,600 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: El Nino, crop insurance after calamities. 5137 05:53:54,000 --> 05:53:57,680 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Mrs. Speaker, good sponsor, DAIE has already stated before 5138 05:53:57,680 --> 05:54:05,900 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: that strong El Nino could have reduced polyproduction by approximately 750,000 metric tons. 5139 05:54:06,200 --> 05:54:06,700 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Is this correct? 5140 05:54:10,700 --> 05:54:15,000 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Nagbigay na po ng assistance po ang DAIE. 5141 05:54:16,880 --> 05:54:18,840 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: Honorable Speaker, a distinguished colleague. 5145 05:54:29,020 --> 05:54:32,580 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: At lahat po yan ay ginagawa po nila. 5148 05:54:36,900 --> 05:54:41,940 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: My question is, ito ba 750,000 because of El Nino effect? 5149 05:54:42,460 --> 05:54:46,600 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Ito ba ay tatamaan tayo around 750,000 metric tons? 5150 05:54:47,160 --> 05:54:48,600 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Pag hindi kayo nag-cloud seeding... 5151 05:54:48,840 --> 05:54:49,600 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Ito yun. 5152 05:54:49,800 --> 05:54:50,280 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Tama to. 5153 05:54:50,960 --> 05:54:53,780 Rep. Anna York P.

De Jesus: sinagot mo na because of the cloud seeding. 5156 05:55:02,580 --> 05:55:03,020 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What else? 5157 05:55:04,620 --> 05:55:07,300 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Ano yung cloud seeding to prevent... 5158 05:55:07,300 --> 05:55:10,840 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Our plans for El Nino include cloud seeding, 5159 05:55:12,840 --> 05:55:15,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: small shallow tube wells, 5160 05:55:16,520 --> 05:55:18,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: smaller water retention basins, 5161 05:55:18,840 --> 05:55:19,460 Rep.

Bondoc, M.D.: which could survive with less water. 5165 05:55:34,260 --> 05:55:35,880 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 5166 05:55:36,780 --> 05:55:38,900 Rep. Presley C.

Elago: at malayo doon sa kinakailangan na nasa 15,000 to 30,000 na kailangan ng isang bangka 5235 05:59:43,660 --> 05:59:48,240 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: para matiyak na siya ay makapamalaot at magaroon ng huli. 5236 05:59:48,680 --> 05:59:49,860 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Para sa isang araw. 5237 05:59:50,400 --> 05:59:53,780 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Elago: Ang nangyayari po dyan, natatalo po yung ating layunin na matulak ang mga magsasaka at mangingisda. Sa magsasaka, magpatuloy sa pagtatanim at sa mga mangingisda naman, makapagpatuloy po sa paglaot. 5240 06:00:16,560 --> 06:00:34,620 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngayon, dahil po naglabas na ng certification ang Department of Energy at tungkol po dun sa pag-abot natin dun sa trigger na nasa 80 US dollars per barrel na presyo po ng Dubai crude oil, 5241 06:00:34,620 --> 06:00:46,120 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: meron na po ba tayong maaasahang aksyon mula dito sa uplift at meron po bang rekomendasyon ang Department of Agriculture tungkol sa pagsususpindi at pagbabawasan? 5242 06:00:46,560 --> 06:00:56,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker. Ito po, I would like to share the position of the Department of Agriculture. 5243 06:00:56,180 --> 06:01:11,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA supports in principle the temporary de-implementation or suspension of VAT and excise tax on fuel during periods of exceptionally high fuel prices as a measure to reduce cost pressures across the agricultural and fisheries value chain. 5244 06:01:12,500 --> 06:01:15,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Moreover po, ano pa po ang ginagawa natin? 5245 06:01:15,040 --> 06:01:22,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We are including the fuel assistance po sa ating QRF and we are seeking po more funds for fuel assistance. 5246 06:01:23,380 --> 06:01:29,100 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maraming salamat, Ginong Speaker. Nagagalak po tayong marinig ng posisyon ng Department of Agriculture, 5247 06:01:29,540 --> 06:01:37,900 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: hindi lang bawasan o hindi lang temporarily suspindihin ang excise taxes sa petroleum products, kundi pati na rin ang value-added tax. 5248 06:01:38,320 --> 06:01:44,860 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Napakabigat po ng 12% na VAT sa petroleum products na lalong nagpapasirit ng presyo. 5249 06:01:45,040 --> 06:01:57,220 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nang langis, maaari po ba nating malaman kung ano pa ang hinihintay na desisyon pagdating sa pagsususpindi o pagbabawas o pagsama ng VAT? 5250 06:01:57,480 --> 06:02:02,180 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil ang posisyon ng DA malinaw, pero sino pa po ba ang ating hinihintay sa ngayon? 5251 06:02:02,640 --> 06:02:07,800 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil ang DOE may certification na yung uplift ba, nakapagpulong na po ba? 5252 06:02:09,760 --> 06:02:14,800 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kailan po natin maaasahan na magkaroon ng anunsyo tungkol sa paggamit? 5253 06:02:15,040 --> 06:02:17,340 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At nang emergency powers na ito? 5254 06:02:18,720 --> 06:02:24,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, last week po, there was a high-level cabinet meeting regarding increasing fuel prices. 5255 06:02:25,360 --> 06:02:37,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, rest assured na pinagplaplanuhan na po ang pagtaas, sadly, ang pagtaas ng fuel prices. 5256 06:02:38,780 --> 06:02:43,640 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mr. Speaker, ang panawagan po ng representasyon na ito dapat sa lalong madaling panahon. 5257 06:02:43,640 --> 06:02:59,140 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil yan naman po ang layunin ng pag-grant ng emergency powers na mabilis na magagawa ng aksyon yung dapat pong matugunan na issue ng ating mga kababayan sa pagsirit ng presyo ng lanis. 5258 06:02:59,880 --> 06:03:04,640 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Malinaw po na meron ng trigger, naabot na yan, may certification na rin mula sa DOE. 5259 06:03:04,640 --> 06:03:10,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang kinakailangan po natin, mabilis na aksyon ng pamahalaan tungkol dito. 5260 06:03:10,920 --> 06:03:12,640 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil sa bawat araw na hindi tayo... 5261 06:03:13,640 --> 06:03:25,440 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kumikilos sa bawat araw na naghihintay po tayo ng pag-anunsyo, ay isang araw din na lalong pinapasa ng mga kababayan natin yung mas mataas na presyo ng lanis. 5262 06:03:25,580 --> 06:03:27,920 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hindi lang po yan nakaka-apekto sa agrikultura. 5263 06:03:28,700 --> 06:03:40,420 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Alam po natin kung gano'n rin katindi ang impact sa transport sector, sa logistics, na lubos din po ang effect sa agriculture sector, sa delivery, sa transport ng kanilang mga local produce. 5264 06:03:40,420 --> 06:03:41,940 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kaya muli, dapat po. 5265 06:03:42,360 --> 06:03:43,420 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hindi lang suspindihan. 5266 06:03:43,640 --> 06:03:50,040 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kung pwede nga, pag-aralan na rin po ng kapulungan na ito na ibasura yung excise taxes sa petroleum products. 5267 06:03:50,300 --> 06:04:02,100 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Gayun din, panahon na na ma-review, hindi lang po yung pag-suspindi, pagbabawas, kundi yung pagtatanggal ng 12% na value-added tax sa mga mahalaga lang naman po na pangangailangan. 5268 06:04:02,400 --> 06:04:04,960 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kumbaga yung mga basic needs ng ating mga kababayan. 5269 06:04:05,520 --> 06:04:09,300 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pagkain, kuryente, iba pang utilities at langis. 5270 06:04:09,760 --> 06:04:13,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sunod naman po, anais ko pong magtanong tungkol sa... 5271 06:04:13,640 --> 06:04:25,340 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: 2024 Commission on Audit, Annual Audit Report Observation tungkol po sa pagpapatupad ng RSF at ng Rice Farmers Financial Assistance. 5272 06:04:26,240 --> 06:04:38,060 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sinabi po sa kanilang 2024 AAR na nakapagtala ng total na 58,784 farmer beneficiaries mula po sa mga piling rehyon. 5273 06:04:38,060 --> 06:04:43,060 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At sinabi po dito na hindi po lahat ng nakatanggap ay eligible. 5274 06:04:43,640 --> 06:04:44,680 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Na makatanggap. 5275 06:04:45,220 --> 06:04:50,520 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maari po ba tayong bigyan ng update ng Department of Agriculture tungkol dito? 5276 06:04:50,820 --> 06:05:05,740 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Paano po ba natin natitiyak na lahat ng ating mga financial assistance na binibigay sa Rice Farmers ay napupunta dun sa mga nararapat, nangangailangan at tunay na qualified, batay po sa ating mga pamantayan? 5277 06:05:10,120 --> 06:05:12,420 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker. 5278 06:05:13,640 --> 06:05:17,420 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: The DA goes through each and every complaint po. 5279 06:05:17,880 --> 06:05:27,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And we have a list po of resolved cases by the DA which we are happy to share po with our distinguished colleagues, Mr. Speaker. 5280 06:05:27,820 --> 06:05:30,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, Mr. Speaker, nandito po yung mga na-resolved issues po. 5281 06:05:31,000 --> 06:05:31,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Andami po nito. 5282 06:05:32,160 --> 06:05:35,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And we are happy to share them with our colleague. 5283 06:05:35,120 --> 06:05:43,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And again, ano po, I personally witnessed the DA distribution of assistance. 5284 06:05:43,640 --> 06:05:49,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Napaka-thorough po po nila, including pictures of every single farmer. 5285 06:05:50,240 --> 06:05:55,800 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And when they give assistance, malakihan po yan eh. 5286 06:05:56,140 --> 06:05:57,860 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, it's a small town. 5287 06:05:58,440 --> 06:05:59,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: It's a small barangay. 5288 06:05:59,900 --> 06:06:01,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: People know each other eh. 5289 06:06:01,480 --> 06:06:10,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And we actually say on the mic, and I have to credit the DA po, sinasabi po nila, kung meron pong may reklamo, magreklamo na po on the spot. 5290 06:06:10,700 --> 06:06:13,620 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: If they do feel that an unqualified person. 5291 06:06:13,640 --> 06:06:15,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: was given assistance. 5292 06:06:16,560 --> 06:06:22,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Actually, tying it to our previous distinguished colleagues, Mr. Speaker, question about the RSBSA. 5293 06:06:23,600 --> 06:06:25,020 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Malaking bagay po talaga. 5294 06:06:25,700 --> 06:06:36,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Actually, I would be more concerned about persons not, qualified persons not receiving assistance versus like a syndicate of unqualified persons rushing to receive assistance. 5295 06:06:37,700 --> 06:06:43,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: As we have discussed earlier, there is actually an undercount of the RSBSA. 5296 06:06:43,040 --> 06:06:54,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, ang dami pong, mas marami pong nagre-reklamo po sa amin na hindi po sila nasama doon sa tulong ng DA kesa sa doon sa nagre-reklamo na hindi po qualified yung katabi po nilang kasama. 5297 06:06:54,980 --> 06:07:04,320 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, again, we can only correct all of these and resolve all of these and rest assured that the DA is very open to complaints right there and then on the spot po. 5298 06:07:04,680 --> 06:07:07,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Pwede pong magreklamo at tatanggapin po namin. 5299 06:07:07,700 --> 06:07:12,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Aside from that po, we also need to work po with the LGUs kasi sila po talaga. 5300 06:07:13,040 --> 06:07:22,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: We don't have extension workers and the mouse to make sure po na yung talagang tama ho yung kuhanan po, nabigyan po ng assistance. 5301 06:07:22,920 --> 06:07:35,080 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And rest assured po, if we find anybody or any group that is organizing themselves and falsely misrepresenting themselves to receive assistance from the government, e kakasuhan po yun. 5302 06:07:36,880 --> 06:07:39,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor. 5303 06:07:39,560 --> 06:07:42,880 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dalawang bagay na napakahalaga mula po sa sagot ng ating Distinguished Sponsor. 5304 06:07:43,040 --> 06:08:00,040 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Yung una, dapat naman talaga matiyak natin na kung ano yung observation ng COA magagawa natin ng paraan para mahigpit at kung ano yung dapat na financial assistance sa mga rice farmers na sobrang sobra na apektado ng rice importation ay ating matutulungan. 5305 06:08:01,360 --> 06:08:07,120 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa pangalawang mahalagang bagay na nabanggitin nyo, yung kahirapan din ng ating mga farmers sa pagpaparegister. 5306 06:08:07,120 --> 06:08:12,920 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa totoo lang po, hindi po yan ang unang pagkakataon na narinig ng representasyon na ito. 5307 06:08:13,040 --> 06:08:27,980 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Sarah Jane I. Elago: Abagamat, naiintindihan ko po, kasi nakita rin natin dito, Mr. Speaker, na bagamat gusto pong matulungan lahat ng mga nakaregister, napakaliit na prosyento lang po yung natutulungan kasi napakalimitado lang po ng pondo. 5309 06:08:43,040 --> 06:08:47,040 Rep.

Elago: Dahil po bukod sa langis, yan din po ang isa sa pinakasumirit ang presyo dahil muli nakaasa na naman po tayo sa importation. 5330 06:11:37,780 --> 06:11:52,700 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Samantalang, marami din pong lumapit sa representasyon na ito na marami pong mga locally developed fertilizer na kulang-nakulang po ang suporta pagdating sa pagsiscale ng production para makatulong sa ating local agriculture. 5331 06:11:52,700 --> 06:12:03,460 Rep.

Elago: Ngayon, nais ko naman pong magtanong. Sundan ko lang po yung mga katanungan ng mga nauna. 5333 06:12:07,780 --> 06:12:25,680 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa minority tungkol sa rice importation. Sinabi po ni DA Secretary Chula Aurel nitong September 2026 lang po na 5 million metric tons ang tinatayang rice imports ngayong taong 2026. 5334 06:12:25,680 --> 06:12:37,000 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kung titignan sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, ang ating rice importation mula taong 2000, ito na ang pinakamataas na import ng ating bansa. 5335 06:12:37,780 --> 06:12:44,980 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ano po ba ang magiging epekto nito sa ating rice self-sufficiency at sa kita ng mga local farmers? 5336 06:12:45,940 --> 06:12:58,340 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hindi po ba ito indikasyon na sa halip na mababawasan ang ating dependence sa imported rice, lalo pa nating matataasan yung ating dependence sa imported rice. 5337 06:12:58,340 --> 06:13:07,340 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa katunayan po, mula sa 9% na rice import dependence mula taong 1990, tumaas na ito ng 23%. 5338 06:13:07,780 --> 06:13:16,380 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa taong 2022. So ganun po kabilis, Mr. Speaker, yung pagsirit na nga rice import dependence natin. 5339 06:13:16,800 --> 06:13:26,240 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: From 9% in the year 1990 to 23% in the year 2022. So more than double. 5340 06:13:27,460 --> 06:13:37,240 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kaya po nababahala tayo sa pahayag na ito na buka pong tayo na naman ang magiging isa sa pinakamataas. 5341 06:13:37,780 --> 06:13:42,700 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nangunguna na rice importer dito sa ating bansa sa buong mundo. 5342 06:13:43,000 --> 06:13:56,200 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Samantalang sa ating bansa, marami po tayong very much willing pa rin to be involved, get involved, and actively produce through our local agriculture. 5343 06:13:56,200 --> 06:14:06,920 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pero nabanggit nyo rin po kanina sa isa nating interpellator na hanggat hindi mo sasagutin yung issue ng profits, hanggat hindi mo matitiyak yung maayos na farm gate price, 5344 06:14:07,780 --> 06:14:10,380 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: mamamatay po talaga yung ating local production. 5345 06:14:10,560 --> 06:14:21,460 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: So ang katanungan ko po ay wala po bang ibang plano bukod sa mag-asa na naman po sa rice importation para sa susunod na taon? 5346 06:14:23,580 --> 06:14:35,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, again, we had to import because of the El Nino situation for this year. 5347 06:14:35,680 --> 06:14:36,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: But definitely next year. 5348 06:14:37,780 --> 06:14:45,960 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Last year, there was a large drop in imports because we suspended importation to support farm gate prices. 5349 06:14:46,880 --> 06:14:59,980 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So we are open to various interventions to support our local farmers and to give them prices that are competitive and that will... 5350 06:15:00,000 --> 06:15:02,060 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: support the 5351 06:15:02,060 --> 06:15:03,580 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: cost of the inputs. 5352 06:15:04,540 --> 06:15:06,460 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: And again, 5355 06:15:11,020 --> 06:15:12,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: wala pa bang ibang magagawa? 5356 06:15:13,240 --> 06:15:13,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Well, definitely, 5357 06:15:14,260 --> 06:15:15,680 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: we will continue to support 5358 06:15:15,680 --> 06:15:18,060 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: tataas po yung kanilang production. 5361 06:15:22,380 --> 06:15:23,820 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Hopefully, this will become a trend 5362 06:15:23,820 --> 06:15:26,100 Rep.

Bondoc, M.D.: for farmers, then more will 5367 06:15:33,600 --> 06:15:35,340 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: continue to plant and our 5368 06:15:35,340 --> 06:15:37,820 Rep. Anna York P.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: In our consultations with farmers and fisher folks, 5814 06:32:05,080 --> 06:32:12,140 Rep.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: piloted a weather index-based parametric insurance for registered municipal fisher folk. 5816 06:32:19,400 --> 06:32:25,880 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ito ay isang klase ng insurance that pays a pre-agreed amount to beneficiaries 5817 06:32:25,880 --> 06:32:33,120 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: kagaya ng mga triggers, kagaya ng mga high wind speed or typhoon signal. 5818 06:32:33,760 --> 06:32:36,460 Rep.

Dadah Kiram Ismula: Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor, I will now proceed with my questions na nais ipahatid ng aking colleague na si Representative Laila de Lima. 5838 06:34:32,420 --> 06:34:41,780 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: This is regarding the Fisheries Administrative Order 266, yung Vessel Monitoring System and Electronic Reporting System po. 5839 06:34:41,780 --> 06:34:46,780 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Noong January 21 of 2026, dineklara ng Supreme Court en banc 5840 06:34:46,960 --> 06:34:56,760 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: na unconstitutional ang FAO 266 na nagresulta sa pag-invalidate ng Mandatory Vessel Monitoring System 5841 06:34:56,760 --> 06:35:03,900 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: at Electronic Reporting System requirements para sa mga commercial Philippine flag fishing vessels. 5842 06:35:03,900 --> 06:35:16,900 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ang tanong ko, since ang VMS at ERS ay mahalagang tools para mamonitor ang fishing activities at ma-deter ang illegal, unreported, and unregulated, 5843 06:35:16,960 --> 06:35:27,280 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: fishing, ano po ang naging kongkretong epekto ng Declaration of Unconstitutionality nito sa monitoring at enforcement efforts ng BFAR, 5844 06:35:27,780 --> 06:35:37,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: particularly sa pag-pigil ng illegal fishing at protekta sa marine resources at kabuhayan ng mga munisipal fisherfolk? 5845 06:35:39,000 --> 06:35:46,500 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, despite the nullification of FAO 266, the BFAR continues to implement Vessel Monitoring, 5846 06:35:46,960 --> 06:35:51,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: where it is required under the Philippines' international fisheries obligations, 5847 06:35:51,800 --> 06:36:02,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: including it as a condition for access to the waters of other coastal states and to fishing grounds managed by the regional fishing management organizations. 5848 06:36:02,880 --> 06:36:14,620 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, yes, humina po ang BFAR's enforcement capabilities, but they are still doing their best po. 5849 06:36:16,960 --> 06:36:24,720 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They retain alternative enforcement tools, including vessel inspection, sea patrol, onboard observers, etc. 5850 06:36:24,940 --> 06:36:28,200 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Marami po silang ginagawa, so we are happy to share that with you, Mr. Speaker. 5851 06:36:28,840 --> 06:36:38,620 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Following this ruling po, Madam Sponsor, ano po ang mga alternative systems o mechanisms na ginagamit ngayon ng BFAR to monitor fishing activities 5852 06:36:38,620 --> 06:36:44,920 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: at maisagawa ang mga functions na dating sinasaklaw ng VMS at ERS? 5853 06:36:44,920 --> 06:36:50,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So, the following po, Mr. Speaker, are occurring even as we speak. 5854 06:36:51,100 --> 06:37:04,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mandatory deployment of the MCS patrol boats, physical vessel inspections, sea patrols, onboard observers, logbook audits, port controls, licensing, intelligence gathering, at marami pa pong iba. 5855 06:37:05,160 --> 06:37:06,960 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat, Madam Sponsor. 5856 06:37:07,340 --> 06:37:13,240 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: How many unregistered commercial fishing vessels have you identified in the entire country po? 5857 06:37:14,920 --> 06:37:20,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: They recorded almost 2,500 registered vessels. 5858 06:37:22,080 --> 06:37:23,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: And how many have... 5859 06:37:23,000 --> 06:37:24,400 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yung mga unregistered? 5860 06:37:24,540 --> 06:37:24,900 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Yes po. 5861 06:37:26,380 --> 06:37:32,340 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: How many have been apprehended by BFAR and what's the status of the cases filed against them po? 5862 06:37:32,840 --> 06:37:34,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Ito po, i-share ko na lang po, Mr. Speaker. 5863 06:37:35,440 --> 06:37:39,520 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: 2025, 158, 2026, 76. 5864 06:37:44,080 --> 06:37:44,880 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: And magkano? 5865 06:37:44,920 --> 06:37:54,300 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Magkano naman po ang nagastos ng BFAR para sa VMS at ERS bago ma-declare unconstitutional ang FAO 266? 5866 06:37:56,720 --> 06:38:04,260 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, total 3.440 billion from 2018 to 2026. 5867 06:38:05,460 --> 06:38:12,280 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: At may natitira pa po ba kayang funds ang BFAR para sa mga ito sa ilalim ng inyong 2026 budget? 5868 06:38:12,280 --> 06:38:14,620 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: At meron pa po bang allocation? 5869 06:38:14,920 --> 06:38:18,680 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ang mga ito sa 2027 proposed budget ng BFAR. 5870 06:38:19,200 --> 06:38:27,440 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: As of June 30, 2026, Mr. Speaker, distinguished colleague, the remaining fund for the vessel monitoring system is 40 million. 5871 06:38:28,000 --> 06:38:37,280 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And for 2027, meron po tayong budget of 500 million for its operationalization and sustainability, Mr. Speaker. 5872 06:38:38,240 --> 06:38:39,120 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Maraming salamat po. 5873 06:38:39,120 --> 06:38:44,900 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: On the DA budget and budget for production support services sub-program naman po tayo. 5874 06:38:44,920 --> 06:38:52,620 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Sa fiscal year of 2027 NEP, isa ang DA sa mga department na may malaking budget cuts. 5875 06:38:52,940 --> 06:39:02,920 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: From 186 billion sa 2026 GAA, bumaba ito ng 15 billion at naging 171 billion sa 2027 NEP. 5876 06:39:04,140 --> 06:39:14,120 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Taon-taon sinasabi ng DBM na ang mga budget cuts na ito ay dahil sa poor absorptive capacity ng mga departments katulad ng DA. 5877 06:39:14,120 --> 06:39:22,440 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ang tanong ko po, one of the sub-programs ng DA na may malaking budget cut ang production supportive services sub-program. 5878 06:39:23,160 --> 06:39:30,960 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: From 35.6 billion sa 2026 GAA, bumaba ito ng 29.8 billion sa 2027 NEP. 5879 06:39:31,660 --> 06:39:34,900 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: May 5.8 billion po ang naging cut. 5880 06:39:34,900 --> 06:39:44,020 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Sa aming pagtingin sa NEP, nakikita po natin na ang production supportive services at nakalaan para sa iba. 5881 06:39:44,120 --> 06:39:48,580 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ang ibang uri ng crop production kasama na ang high value crops. 5882 06:39:49,060 --> 06:39:53,480 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Magkano po ang original proposal nito sa DBM para dito? 5883 06:39:55,800 --> 06:40:03,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Totally po, our 2027 proposal was 42B. 5884 06:40:04,420 --> 06:40:10,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Unfortunately, ang nalagay lang po sa 2027 NEP is 29.7B. 5885 06:40:10,900 --> 06:40:12,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Maraming salamat po. 5886 06:40:12,100 --> 06:40:14,000 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ano po ang konkretong implikasyon nito? 5887 06:40:14,120 --> 06:40:19,240 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Sa production capacity ng ating mga magsasaka at sa kanilang kita. 5888 06:40:20,900 --> 06:40:27,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, dahil nabawasan po ang area coverage para sa hybrid seeds, 5889 06:40:31,280 --> 06:40:36,140 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: halos nababalansi ito ng mga malawak sa inbred seed support sa ilalim ng RCEP. 5890 06:40:36,480 --> 06:40:40,640 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Kasabay nito, itinaas natin ang seedling rate support para sa hybrid rice. 5891 06:40:41,280 --> 06:40:43,180 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Gayunman, dahil walang pagpapataas, 5892 06:40:44,120 --> 06:40:47,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: sa kabuwang National Rice Program Budget Sealing, 5893 06:40:48,200 --> 06:40:55,360 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: yung ating nadagdag na seed support ay dapat tumbasan din po ng fertilizer allocation. 5894 06:40:55,940 --> 06:41:02,880 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: So that is why we are requesting po for a larger fertilizer allocation which I read po earlier on. 5895 06:41:03,160 --> 06:41:03,560 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Yes po. 5896 06:41:03,960 --> 06:41:08,480 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: Ano rin po ang nakikita ninyong posibleng impact nito sa presyo ng pagkain, 5897 06:41:08,480 --> 06:41:13,480 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: lalo na at nananatiling na sa 5.2% ang food inflation, 5898 06:41:14,120 --> 06:41:18,080 Rep. Dadah Kiram Ismula: for July 2026, base sa datos ng PSA. 5899 06:41:20,500 --> 06:41:25,760 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: Mr. Speaker, well as we know po, rice plays a big role po sa ating inflation. 5900 06:41:26,300 --> 06:41:32,160 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And lalo na po, it's part of the talagang staple na binibili po ng mga Pilipino. 5901 06:41:32,660 --> 06:41:39,000 Rep. Anna York P.

Bondoc, M.D.: hindi po kami 6768 07:19:58,620 --> 07:19:59,420 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: at least 6769 07:19:59,420 --> 07:20:00,920 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: at least hindi po yung department namin, 6770 07:20:01,540 --> 07:20:03,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: which is the Department of Agriculture, 6771 07:20:03,480 --> 07:20:06,040 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: is responsible for the FLR. 6772 07:20:06,380 --> 07:20:08,700 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: And I think that we need to inquire po 6773 07:20:08,700 --> 07:20:10,220 Rep. Anna York P. Bondoc, M.D.: from the responsible department. 6774 07:20:11,320 --> 07:20:12,080 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Well, Mr. Speaker, 6775 07:20:12,220 --> 07:20:12,460 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: thank you. 6776 07:20:12,520 --> 07:20:13,040 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: To conclude, 6777 07:20:13,980 --> 07:20:14,720 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: actually, 6778 07:20:15,040 --> 07:20:16,140 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: alam na natin yung dahilan. 6779 07:20:16,320 --> 07:20:17,220 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: The DBM will say 6780 07:20:17,220 --> 07:20:18,040 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: it is because 6781 07:20:18,040 --> 07:20:22,440 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: these specific farm-to-market road projects 6782 07:20:22,440 --> 07:20:25,040 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: are congressional amendments or insertions. 6783 07:20:25,180 --> 07:20:25,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yun ang sasabihin nila. 6784 07:20:26,400 --> 07:20:27,060 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And therefore, 6785 07:20:27,680 --> 07:20:29,400 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: bago ma-release yung proyekto, 6786 07:20:29,420 --> 07:20:33,260 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: kailangan mag-submit ng kompletong dokumento 6787 07:20:33,260 --> 07:20:36,240 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and it has to go a whole process of validation. 6788 07:20:37,120 --> 07:20:40,000 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And it takes the better part of the fiscal year. 6789 07:20:40,620 --> 07:20:42,080 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Therefore, we have this situation 6790 07:20:42,080 --> 07:20:46,380 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: where towards the end of the fiscal year, 6791 07:20:47,220 --> 07:20:49,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: saka pa lang marirelease yung SARO. 6792 07:20:50,200 --> 07:20:52,860 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ang gusto ko lang i-point out, Mr. Speaker, dito, 6793 07:20:53,420 --> 07:20:54,780 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay pinapakita, 6794 07:20:55,360 --> 07:20:57,820 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi lang po nangyayari sa DA budget ito. 6795 07:20:57,820 --> 07:20:59,400 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, this happens in the, 6796 07:20:59,420 --> 07:21:03,720 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: this happens in the DPWH budget. 6797 07:21:04,400 --> 07:21:10,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: All programs with capital outlay for the most part, 6798 07:21:11,160 --> 07:21:16,580 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: malaking bahagi nun ay FISARO or FLR for later release. 6799 07:21:17,300 --> 07:21:19,020 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Because, in other words, 6800 07:21:19,120 --> 07:21:20,260 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang tinuturo na po rito, 6801 07:21:20,400 --> 07:21:23,140 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung problema sa system of budgeting, 6802 07:21:23,280 --> 07:21:25,140 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa paraan ng pagbabudget natin, 6803 07:21:25,980 --> 07:21:29,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: particularly the system of congressional insertion or amendment, 6804 07:21:29,420 --> 07:21:32,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: we see how, because of this, 6805 07:21:33,320 --> 07:21:36,080 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay nade-delay po. 6806 07:21:37,560 --> 07:21:41,240 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Minimum two years na po bago makompleto ang proyekto. 6807 07:21:41,800 --> 07:21:42,800 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And even more, 6808 07:21:43,600 --> 07:21:45,180 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: para makompleto ang proyekto, 6809 07:21:45,540 --> 07:21:50,000 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: because of this archaic system 6810 07:21:50,000 --> 07:21:53,560 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: which we call pork barrel system. 6811 07:21:54,260 --> 07:21:56,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung congressional insertions. 6812 07:21:56,680 --> 07:21:58,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang epekto po nito, 6813 07:21:58,160 --> 07:22:00,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: delayed ang delivery 6814 07:22:00,160 --> 07:22:04,420 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nung kinakailangang infrastructure sa mamamayan. 6815 07:22:04,420 --> 07:22:08,660 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kaya, again, tinututulang po natin ito, 6816 07:22:08,660 --> 07:22:10,160 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi lang issue ng corruption. 6817 07:22:10,160 --> 07:22:11,420 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: May issue ng corruption, 6818 07:22:11,420 --> 07:22:13,420 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: iwalay na usapin yan. 6819 07:22:13,420 --> 07:22:15,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ipapang-usapin dito yung actual delay 6820 07:22:15,920 --> 07:22:17,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in the delivery of services 6821 07:22:17,920 --> 07:22:19,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and the tying up of funds 6822 07:22:19,920 --> 07:22:21,920 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: that perhaps could be better 6823 07:22:21,920 --> 07:22:26,380 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: or more urgently used elsewhere. 6824 07:22:26,380 --> 07:22:28,060 Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: In the delivery of services. 6825 07:22:28,060 --> 07:22:30,060 Rep. Antonio L.

Arnie B. Fuentebella: I must emphasize that our country continues to face an increasingly complex and evolving security environment. Among these emerging concerns is the nihilistic violence extremism, which may exploit vulnerable communities and use both physical and digital spaces to spread violent ideologies. 7235 07:45:49,380 --> 07:46:01,660 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We must therefore ensure that our police personnel are adequately equipped, trained, and capacitated to confront these emerging challenges effectively. 7236 07:46:02,380 --> 07:46:07,920 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Mr. Speaker, public safety does not end with the police and the fire service. 7237 07:46:07,920 --> 07:46:18,880 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The Bureau of Jail and Management and Penology has substantially reduced jail congestions and intensified greyhound operations. 7238 07:46:19,380 --> 07:46:27,660 Rep. Arnie B.

Fuentebella: But Mr. Speaker, Madam Speaker, the work of the DILG goes beyond law, enforcement, and public safety. 7240 07:46:36,200 --> 07:46:45,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: It also means strengthening the local government that serves our government's most immediate presence in the lives of our people. 7241 07:46:46,600 --> 07:46:49,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The Department continues to assist and monitor 7242 07:46:49,380 --> 07:46:57,700 Rep. Arnie B.

Fuentebella: Further, our barangay... 7249 07:47:49,380 --> 07:48:01,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Our barangay officials and sangguniang kabataan remain capacitated by the local government academy, while our uniformed personnel continue further learning because of the Philippine Public Safety College. 7250 07:48:01,980 --> 07:48:09,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: This accomplishment reminds us that public safety and good governance are interconnected. 7251 07:48:10,480 --> 07:48:15,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: A community is safer when its local government is capable. 7252 07:48:16,560 --> 07:48:18,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: A disaster response is faster when... 7253 07:48:19,380 --> 07:48:28,360 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Local governments are prepared, and public institutions earn trust when they demonstrate both competence and accountability. 7254 07:48:29,440 --> 07:48:32,480 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Mr. Speaker, we should remember the words of Nelson Mandela. 7255 07:48:33,620 --> 07:48:39,400 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Every community in our country has a fundamental right to be free from fear. 7256 07:48:40,160 --> 07:48:43,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: That principle gives meaning to the DILG's budget. 7257 07:48:43,520 --> 07:48:48,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We are giving our barangays the means to protect our communities. 7258 07:48:49,220 --> 07:48:49,360 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Our... 7259 07:48:49,380 --> 07:49:06,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Our municipalities and cities, that means to coordinate our provinces, that means to integrate their security efforts in our national institution, the resources necessary to make the entire system work together. 7260 07:49:06,140 --> 07:49:19,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The strength of our national security is ultimately measured not only by what government can do at the national level, but by the security experienced by ordinary people. 7261 07:49:20,140 --> 07:49:24,720 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: In their homes, schools, seats, and communities. 7262 07:49:25,280 --> 07:49:32,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The question before us, therefore, is not simply how much we are willing to spend on the DILG, 7263 07:49:32,640 --> 07:49:39,820 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: it is how much we are willing to invest in the capacity of government to protect the Filipino people. 7264 07:49:39,820 --> 07:49:47,920 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: When the answer involves the safety of our children, the security of our communities, 7265 07:49:48,500 --> 07:49:50,500 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: and the ability of our public institutions 7266 07:49:50,500 --> 07:49:52,900 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: to respond when lives are threatened. 7267 07:49:53,580 --> 07:49:54,820 Rep.

De Jesus: That may require strengthening in the prevention of and response to violent incidents in school. 7533 08:00:11,240 --> 08:00:24,720 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Mr. Speaker, as much as I would like to answer, but I cannot divulge any specific because this is an ongoing investigation still. 7534 08:00:24,720 --> 08:00:40,120 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, hindi po nagpapabaya ang ating DILG and in fact, nag-coordinate na po tayo sa DepEd, nag-coordinate rin po tayo sa DICT, and mag-coordinate rin po tayo sa DSWD. 7535 08:00:40,520 --> 08:00:54,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, and punot dulo nito, yung pong sinasabi natin na matagal na natin pinag-uusapan na regulation, lalo na po ng Facebook, lalo na po ng META. 7536 08:00:54,720 --> 08:01:05,820 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Na kailangan din po natin yung tulong po nila na i-take down itong mga sites na kung saan bini-brainwash ang ating pong mga kabataan. 7537 08:01:06,460 --> 08:01:09,640 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, we are talking about the security of our kids now. 7538 08:01:10,600 --> 08:01:14,080 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero, may ginawa na po ang DILG and PNP. 7539 08:01:14,680 --> 08:01:23,080 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Safer school zones beyond the school gate, the DILG issued Memorandum Order Circular 2026.037. 7540 08:01:23,080 --> 08:01:33,460 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: To strengthen safety in roads, sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, waiting areas, transport points, and loading and unloading areas immediately surrounding schools. 7541 08:01:34,400 --> 08:01:36,240 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Clear local accountability. 7542 08:01:36,900 --> 08:01:40,080 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Puno baranggays, lead implementation at barangay level. 7543 08:01:40,680 --> 08:01:44,740 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: May training din po na ginagawa ang ating pong mga kapulisan. 7544 08:01:44,740 --> 08:01:49,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, kailangan din po ang tulong ng DSWD. 7545 08:01:49,660 --> 08:01:52,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Dahil alam po natin na mga minor de edad. 7546 08:01:52,220 --> 08:01:59,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ang mga tina-target na mga black sites operation na nagbi-brainwash po ng ating pong mga kabataan. 7547 08:01:59,540 --> 08:02:01,460 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, we have to be very careful. 7548 08:02:02,220 --> 08:02:04,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And I think this is a social problem. 7549 08:02:05,380 --> 08:02:08,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: This is not only the problem of the DILG. 7550 08:02:08,860 --> 08:02:11,100 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: It is also the problem of the parents. 7551 08:02:11,820 --> 08:02:15,080 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We have to be very much aware of what's happening now. 7552 08:02:15,700 --> 08:02:19,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Especially sa mga sites na wala po tayong control. 7553 08:02:20,000 --> 08:02:22,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: That's why Congress is crying. 7554 08:02:22,220 --> 08:02:26,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Crafting, regulation, lalo na po sa meta. 7555 08:02:27,000 --> 08:02:29,180 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And may ginagawa na rin po ang DICT. 7556 08:02:29,980 --> 08:02:32,500 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, hindi naman po ako nagde-defend sa DICT. 7557 08:02:32,900 --> 08:02:35,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, we are well much versed with the situation. 7558 08:02:36,800 --> 08:02:40,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, ang masasabi po natin, hindi po natin ito pinapabayaan. 7559 08:02:40,160 --> 08:02:48,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ang alam lang po natin, yung tatlo na insidente na nangyari po sa Tacloban, Sambuanga, South Cotabato. 7560 08:02:48,940 --> 08:02:52,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero, hindi nyo po naitatanong kung ilan na po ang nasalba po. 7561 08:02:52,220 --> 08:02:53,600 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Nang ating kapulisan. 7562 08:02:54,300 --> 08:02:57,880 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: More than 40 na mga bata ang naisalba na. 7563 08:02:58,380 --> 08:03:04,000 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Because sa ating mga intelligence reports, na I cannot divulge kung saan po galing. 7564 08:03:04,860 --> 08:03:10,480 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero may mga tumutulong po sa atin, sa ating pong pamilya sa DILG. 7565 08:03:11,080 --> 08:03:14,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And the Secretary, John Vicrimulla, is on top of it. 7566 08:03:16,700 --> 08:03:20,160 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Sponsor. 7567 08:03:20,160 --> 08:03:21,160 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: I agree with you 100%. 7568 08:03:22,220 --> 08:03:24,920 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: That these social platforms, malaking bagay. 7569 08:03:25,240 --> 08:03:32,900 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: In fact, during the budget of the ICT here, I was the one who made the deferment of their budget because of the metas. 7570 08:03:33,500 --> 08:03:37,880 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Meta, social platforms, especially the Facebook, nagkaroon ng problema dyan. 7571 08:03:38,460 --> 08:03:42,920 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, in light of that, Mr. Speaker, I move to my next question. 7572 08:03:42,920 --> 08:03:51,980 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: In the South Cotabato incident reports, indicate that warnings have been communicated to other students before the shooting. 7573 08:03:52,220 --> 08:04:00,000 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What mechanisms currently allow students, parents, and school personnel to report potential threats to the police? 7574 08:04:00,600 --> 08:04:04,660 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: And how are such reports assessed and acted upon? 7575 08:04:05,080 --> 08:04:07,760 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Well, we have the 911, Mr. Speaker. 7576 08:04:08,400 --> 08:04:11,480 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, kung may mga reports po tayo na nalaman, just dial 911. 7577 08:04:12,740 --> 08:04:15,820 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ika nga po, 5 to 7 minutes, nandun na po ang ating kapulisan. 7578 08:04:15,820 --> 08:04:20,820 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But again, mas kailangan pong paigtingin ang ating pangangampanya. 7579 08:04:22,220 --> 08:04:26,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Hindi lang po ng ating kapulisan, lalo na po ng ating komunidad. 7580 08:04:27,160 --> 08:04:34,560 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Even our PTA, dapat imbelto po dyan, our teachers, our barangay officials, our local government officials. 7581 08:04:35,100 --> 08:04:38,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, I've said, tulong-tulong po ang kailangan. 7582 08:04:39,080 --> 08:04:41,480 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Hindi po kakayanin ng ating kapulisan. 7583 08:04:41,800 --> 08:04:52,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Lalo na wala pa po tayong yung iniingi po namin na counter-terrorism building na mag-equip ng ating mga data. 7584 08:04:52,220 --> 08:04:56,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Para po ma-preempt natin itong mga ganitong mga pangyayari. 7585 08:04:57,320 --> 08:04:59,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, we need to equip our police. 7586 08:05:00,560 --> 08:05:07,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We need to equip our DILG family para po matugunan ang safety, lalo na po ng ating mga kabataan. 7587 08:05:07,760 --> 08:05:12,480 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: And just to add, Mr. Speaker, the deferment of DICT is not only about META. 7588 08:05:13,040 --> 08:05:15,500 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: I think it's also the performance of DICT. 7589 08:05:16,680 --> 08:05:18,780 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: It's not only about META. 7590 08:05:18,780 --> 08:05:21,400 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 7591 08:05:22,220 --> 08:05:31,120 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: How is the department coordinating with the Department of Education and local government units 7592 08:05:31,120 --> 08:05:38,620 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: to establish clear protocols for preventing, reporting, and responding to serious threats in school? 7593 08:05:40,180 --> 08:05:44,440 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Do you have a coordination with the Department of Education vis-a-vis to DILG? 7594 08:05:44,440 --> 08:05:51,600 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: As I've mentioned, it's not only DEPED, even DSWD, even barangay officials, barangay TANOD, 7595 08:05:51,600 --> 08:05:52,580 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: even the mayors. 7596 08:05:53,140 --> 08:06:01,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The police is training also the barangay TANODs, but we cannot go directly to the students since minor po sila. 7597 08:06:01,860 --> 08:06:11,180 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, that's why it's an, well, call it interagency, but we need a composite team to address this issue, Mr. Speaker. 7598 08:06:12,460 --> 08:06:13,740 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. 7599 08:06:13,740 --> 08:06:14,760 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, distinguished sponsor. 7600 08:06:15,660 --> 08:06:20,740 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: The proposed local government empowerment program receives 6.494 7601 08:06:21,600 --> 08:06:23,420 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: billion. 7602 08:06:24,040 --> 08:06:35,580 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: However, its 2025 disbursement rate was 69%, making implementation capacity an important consideration alongside the proposed allocation. 7603 08:06:35,580 --> 08:06:46,480 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: My question is, what prevented the local government empowerment program from achieving a higher level of disbursement in 2025, 7604 08:06:47,180 --> 08:06:51,580 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: and what has changed to support timely implementation in 2025? 7605 08:06:51,600 --> 08:06:57,300 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Are we, Mr. Speaker, just for clarification, are we talking about LGSF? 7606 08:06:57,740 --> 08:06:58,800 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Yes, yes, okay. 7607 08:06:59,220 --> 08:07:04,860 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Regarding LGSF, there are several issues. 7608 08:07:05,880 --> 08:07:09,660 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The DBM released additional fund of SARO, it was late, Mr. Speaker. 7609 08:07:10,500 --> 08:07:15,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The program appropriation on November 25 to 27, 2024. 7610 08:07:15,160 --> 08:07:20,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And also, Mr. Speaker, nagkaroon din po tayo ng election ban, 7611 08:07:21,600 --> 08:07:24,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: only allowed ongoing projects to continue implementation. 7612 08:07:25,180 --> 08:07:26,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And plus, Mr. Speaker, 7613 08:07:26,980 --> 08:07:33,880 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: compliances of required certificates from the national government agencies prior to the implementation. 7614 08:07:34,740 --> 08:07:36,640 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, ito po yung nagkakos ng delay. 7615 08:07:36,780 --> 08:07:39,180 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Minsan po, late yung pagbigay ng pondo, 7616 08:07:40,120 --> 08:07:41,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: nagkaroon ng election ban, 7617 08:07:42,040 --> 08:07:46,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: nagkaroon tayo ng bagong officials na kailangan po natin turuan po ulit. 7618 08:07:46,280 --> 08:07:51,020 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, these are the reasons kung ano po yung bakit nandidelay. 7619 08:07:51,140 --> 08:07:51,380 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But, 7620 08:07:51,600 --> 08:07:53,080 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: nangyari ba yung project? 7621 08:07:53,540 --> 08:07:53,860 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Yes. 7622 08:07:56,980 --> 08:07:59,740 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor. 7623 08:07:59,740 --> 08:08:06,620 Rep. Presley C.

De Jesus: Question, what explains this reduction and what effect will it have? 7627 08:08:21,600 --> 08:08:25,980 Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: On support for early childhood services delivered through local governments. 7628 08:08:27,080 --> 08:08:30,720 Rep. Arnie B.

Fuentebella: 100% free. 7831 08:19:37,740 --> 08:19:41,680 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Can I also get a report on papano po ito nadi-disperse? 7832 08:19:42,000 --> 08:19:43,400 Rep.

Roberto Nazal: Thank you for that, Distinguished Colleague, Mr. Speaker. 7835 08:19:51,500 --> 08:19:56,140 Rep. Roberto Nazal: May I ask, how many genuine emergencies resulted in an actual dispatch? 7836 08:19:56,580 --> 08:19:58,840 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And what is the average response? 7837 08:19:59,000 --> 08:20:06,400 Rep. Roberto Nazal: From receipt of a 9-1-1 call, not merely until somebody answers this phone, the telephone, 7838 08:20:06,820 --> 08:20:10,740 Rep. Roberto Nazal: but until the appropriate responder physically arrives at the scene? 7839 08:20:11,800 --> 08:20:15,380 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The average response time is 5 to 7 minutes, Mr. Speaker. 7840 08:20:17,960 --> 08:20:22,340 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Do we measure how many patients were successfully assisted or stabilized? 7841 08:20:22,900 --> 08:20:26,780 Rep. Roberto Nazal: How many emergencies were resolved through timely intervention? 7842 08:20:27,900 --> 08:20:28,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, Mr. Speaker. 7843 08:20:28,440 --> 08:20:28,480 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And where? 7844 08:20:29,000 --> 08:20:34,940 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Measurable how many lives were saved because of a timely 9-1-1 response? 7845 08:20:35,280 --> 08:20:36,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, Mr. Speaker. 7846 08:20:36,200 --> 08:20:41,600 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We just have to pull up the data and submit to our colleague, Congressman Robert Nazal. 7847 08:20:41,960 --> 08:20:49,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But definitely, alam po yan ng ating pong 9-1-1 responders. 7848 08:20:49,480 --> 08:20:50,500 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Siyempre po, hindi po. 7849 08:20:50,500 --> 08:20:57,360 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, just for example, ito po. 7850 08:20:57,360 --> 08:21:13,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, from September 11, 2025 to July 31, 2026, the National Call Center recorded 14,461,871 incoming calls. 7851 08:21:17,520 --> 08:21:22,860 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 13,931,388 handled calls. 7852 08:21:23,680 --> 08:21:27,000 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 96.33% handling efficiency. 7853 08:21:27,360 --> 08:21:32,360 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 513,483 abandoned calls. 7854 08:21:33,100 --> 08:21:38,780 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And 17,469 documented prank calls. 7855 08:21:39,520 --> 08:21:44,680 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The volume is approximately 53,000 incoming calls per day. 7856 08:21:45,440 --> 08:21:51,200 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Ilan po yung actual na-save natin dun sa mga totoong may emergency? 7857 08:21:51,200 --> 08:21:57,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yung handled calls is 13,000,000. 7858 08:21:57,360 --> 08:21:59,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 13,931,388. 7859 08:22:00,420 --> 08:22:06,120 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Out of the 14,461,871 incoming calls. 7860 08:22:06,820 --> 08:22:11,100 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, 96.33 handling efficiency po tayo. 7861 08:22:14,100 --> 08:22:22,480 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Can a measurable emergency outcome become an actual performance indicator tied to 9-1-1? 7862 08:22:22,480 --> 08:22:26,640 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kung pwede po na maging KPI, 7863 08:22:27,360 --> 08:22:32,180 Rep. Roberto Nazal: yung Unified 9-1-1, yung measurable emergency outcome? 7864 08:22:32,420 --> 08:22:32,660 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes. 7865 08:22:33,540 --> 08:22:34,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Noted, duly noted. 7866 08:22:34,900 --> 08:22:36,320 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And maganda po yung suggestion yan. 7867 08:22:36,640 --> 08:22:38,340 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Very good suggestion, Mr. Speaker. 7868 08:22:39,680 --> 08:22:43,420 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And can the DILG agree to that? 7869 08:22:43,940 --> 08:22:45,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Na isama po natin yun, sir. 7870 08:22:45,160 --> 08:22:45,660 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Thank you, sir. 7871 08:22:45,940 --> 08:22:46,360 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Thank you, sir. 7872 08:22:48,460 --> 08:22:49,780 Rep. Roberto Nazal: I'll go to my next question. 7873 08:22:49,780 --> 08:22:52,660 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Mr. Speaker, through you, 7874 08:22:53,380 --> 08:22:57,220 Rep. Roberto Nazal: if the real measure of 9-1-1 is timely response and life-saving, 7875 08:22:57,360 --> 08:23:02,000 Rep. Roberto Nazal: then hindi po sapat na mabilis dumating ang ambulansya. 7876 08:23:02,560 --> 08:23:07,880 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Pagdating ng ambulance, may trained person ba na kayang magsimulang magligtas ng buhay? 7877 08:23:08,760 --> 08:23:12,800 Rep. Roberto Nazal: TESDA po already has a specific paramedic training program. 7878 08:23:13,620 --> 08:23:17,940 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So, my question is, Mr. Speaker, distinguished sponsor, 7879 08:23:17,940 --> 08:23:26,060 Rep. Roberto Nazal: can the Unified 9-1-1 budget be used to train LGU personnel as paramedics using these existing TESDA programs? 7880 08:23:26,180 --> 08:23:26,380 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes. 7881 08:23:26,540 --> 08:23:27,340 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Actually, we have one. 7882 08:23:27,340 --> 08:23:32,380 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: We have 5,000 nurses nakasama po dyan under sa BFP. 7883 08:23:32,560 --> 08:23:38,940 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, wala pong aandar na ambulansya, wala pong trained nurses na sumagip ng buhay ng ating mga mamayan. 7884 08:23:39,340 --> 08:23:40,820 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Meron pong nurse, I agree to that. 7885 08:23:41,140 --> 08:23:45,400 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Ang tanong is, is that nurse qualified also as a paramedic? 7886 08:23:45,420 --> 08:23:46,780 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Definitely, yes, Mr. Speaker. 7887 08:23:47,600 --> 08:23:53,880 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So, pwede po ba natin, kasi kaya ako sinasabi, meron nang existing TESDA programs. 7888 08:23:54,160 --> 08:23:55,540 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Can we tie that up? 7889 08:23:55,540 --> 08:23:56,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes. 7890 08:23:57,340 --> 08:24:00,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The DILG is doing that already, Mr. Speaker. 7891 08:24:00,140 --> 08:24:09,900 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So, more importantly, can the DILG establish a national policy or standard that every ambulance operating as part of an LGU emergency response 7892 08:24:09,900 --> 08:24:17,300 Rep. Roberto Nazal: or Unified 9-1-1 system should eventually have at least one properly trained and certified paramedic on board? 7893 08:24:17,880 --> 08:24:22,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Actually, Mr. Speaker, I think that's a very good question. 7894 08:24:22,160 --> 08:24:25,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero lumalabas na po yan sa saklaw ng... 7895 08:24:25,160 --> 08:24:27,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: ng DILG. 7896 08:24:28,460 --> 08:24:30,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: DILG is there to supervise. 7897 08:24:30,720 --> 08:24:41,960 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But if we make a law regarding this, mas lalo po natin mabibigyan ngipin ang DILG and even po na sumunod, lalo na ang ating mga local government units. 7898 08:24:42,540 --> 08:24:52,000 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kaya ako lang po binabanggit kasi, siyempre, under po kasi yung LGU emergency response dun sa mga LGU nga. 7899 08:24:52,000 --> 08:24:55,000 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And in an emergency, siyempre, every minute counts. 7900 08:24:55,160 --> 08:24:59,980 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kung may trained paramedic sa ambulance, hindi kailangang hintayin. 7901 08:25:00,100 --> 08:25:04,100 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Makarating sa ER bago magsimula ang proper intervention. 7902 08:25:04,580 --> 08:25:11,560 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Habang nasa ambulance pa lang, pwede nang ma-assess, ma-stabilize, at mabigyan ng appropriate pre-hospital care ang pasyente. 7903 08:25:11,980 --> 08:25:14,340 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kasi those minutes can save a life. 7904 08:25:14,700 --> 08:25:18,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, Mr. Speaker, ang BFP natin are personally trained. 7905 08:25:18,160 --> 08:25:23,460 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And actually, hindi lang po sila sila yung trained, but they're also extending training. 7906 08:25:24,040 --> 08:25:25,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Lalo na po sa ating mga local. 7907 08:25:25,160 --> 08:25:30,480 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, ang problema nito, hindi lang po ito problema ng DILG o ng BFP. 7908 08:25:31,060 --> 08:25:34,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Problema po ito ng local government units. 7909 08:25:34,280 --> 08:25:35,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, nagtutulungan po sila. 7910 08:25:35,960 --> 08:25:40,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Kaya nga po, kinukompleto natin mga fire trucks, kinukompleto natin ang fire station. 7911 08:25:40,880 --> 08:25:43,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Sana makompleto pa natin yung ambulances. 7912 08:25:43,500 --> 08:25:49,720 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Lalo na pag na-release lang, 80% lang po ang inihingi na naka-earmark po para sa BFP. 7913 08:25:49,980 --> 08:25:55,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Para po, mahintunin yung kaka-hingi po natin na parang nagmamakaawat tayo ng mga ambulanses. 7914 08:25:55,160 --> 08:25:55,800 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: At mga fire trucks. 7915 08:25:56,100 --> 08:26:00,960 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Totoo yun. And I agree to that. And I fully support yung sinasabi mo, distinguished colleague. 7916 08:26:01,520 --> 08:26:06,640 Rep. Roberto Nazal: What I'm asking is tulong naman po ito para sa unified 911 program. 7917 08:26:07,140 --> 08:26:08,440 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kaya po, sinasuggest ko lang. 7918 08:26:08,960 --> 08:26:15,340 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And tinatanong ko, can DILG commit to work with DESDA and DOH on a national standard? 7919 08:26:15,440 --> 08:26:16,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Definitely, yes. 7920 08:26:16,520 --> 08:26:22,620 Rep. Roberto Nazal: With a reasonable transition period that every LGU 911 ambulance should have a trained paramedic on board? 7921 08:26:22,620 --> 08:26:23,940 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, I totally agree. 7922 08:26:23,940 --> 08:26:27,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And DILG is working on it, Mr. Speaker. 7923 08:26:27,520 --> 08:26:32,320 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And can the 2027 911 budget be used to begin training these paramedics? 7924 08:26:33,700 --> 08:26:35,140 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kung po pwede lang po. 7925 08:26:36,160 --> 08:26:43,620 Rep. Roberto Nazal: If not, what specific authority or budget provision does DILG need from Congress para po magawa po natin ito? 7926 08:26:46,060 --> 08:26:50,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, actually po ang mga BFP kasi natin po is NC2 trained po yan. 7927 08:26:51,800 --> 08:26:53,920 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And well, we really need them. 7928 08:26:53,940 --> 08:26:57,740 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Kung hindi lang po yung 911 even sa training. 7929 08:26:58,280 --> 08:27:00,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But we make do of what we have. 7930 08:27:01,040 --> 08:27:04,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: There are no reasons dahil kulang sa pondo, ihinto tayo. 7931 08:27:04,200 --> 08:27:09,340 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Hindi po yan ang patakaran ng ating Secretary Jalvik Rimulya under his leadership. 7932 08:27:10,040 --> 08:27:13,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So nakita naman po natin ang response time ng police. 7933 08:27:13,920 --> 08:27:16,020 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Nakita naman po natin ang galaw ng BFP. 7934 08:27:16,700 --> 08:27:21,460 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So I'm very proud and privileged to defend the DILG family. 7935 08:27:21,720 --> 08:27:23,860 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Because they are really performing well. 7936 08:27:24,600 --> 08:27:27,280 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Lalo na po sa mga nangyari sa ating pong bansa. 7937 08:27:28,180 --> 08:27:29,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero kung kulang man ang pondo, 7938 08:27:30,220 --> 08:27:37,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: dyan po may sinubmit na po ang DILG family na dapat pag-usapan po dito sa plenaryo. 7939 08:27:37,900 --> 08:27:40,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Kung performing, I believe in meritocracy. 7940 08:27:40,840 --> 08:27:44,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Kung performing ang agency, dapat natin pong dagdagan. 7941 08:27:44,580 --> 08:27:47,840 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Dahil safety po ng tao ang pinag-usapan po natin dito. 7942 08:27:48,280 --> 08:27:53,200 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Yes, and I agree to that 101% distinguished sponsor. 7943 08:27:53,200 --> 08:27:56,580 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So ang akin lang naman po ay tulong and suggestions. 7944 08:27:57,060 --> 08:28:00,420 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Because yung current 911 program po sa Amerika, 7945 08:28:00,860 --> 08:28:04,520 Rep. Roberto Nazal: kahit daw yung mga driver ng ambulansya, 7946 08:28:04,760 --> 08:28:06,580 Rep. Roberto Nazal: ay may special training sa paramedic. 7947 08:28:07,780 --> 08:28:12,400 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ah yeah, sana po umabot tayo sa ganong level. 7948 08:28:13,280 --> 08:28:15,720 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Okay, let me proceed to my next question. 7949 08:28:17,560 --> 08:28:22,620 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Mr. Speaker, just one constructive question for the BJMP. 7950 08:28:23,200 --> 08:28:30,560 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Are all eligible PDLs or persons deprived of liberty registered with PhilHealth? 7951 08:28:31,280 --> 08:28:38,780 Rep. Roberto Nazal: And are the BJMP facilities actively linking them to YACAP accredited facilities, 7952 08:28:39,380 --> 08:28:41,160 Rep. Roberto Nazal: yung YACAP program po ng PhilHealth, 7953 08:28:41,380 --> 08:28:44,340 Rep. Roberto Nazal: so that they can access covered medicines through YACAP gamot? 7954 08:28:45,280 --> 08:28:47,900 Rep. Roberto Nazal: If not, what is preventing this? 7955 08:28:49,720 --> 08:28:52,900 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Not all facilities, but nagsisimula na po. 7956 08:28:53,180 --> 08:28:54,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: There are some facilities already. 7957 08:28:54,780 --> 08:28:59,620 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But I will be able to give you the specific number at the proper time, 7958 08:28:59,680 --> 08:29:00,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: maybe by today, Mr. Speaker. 7959 08:29:01,920 --> 08:29:04,400 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So, thank you for that, distinguished sponsor. 7960 08:29:04,640 --> 08:29:07,420 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Can the BJMP coordinate with PhilHealth? 7961 08:29:07,860 --> 08:29:10,420 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Ang akin lang naman po ay para makabawas. 7962 08:29:11,040 --> 08:29:14,580 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Yung BJMP na kung meron silang binibili ng gamot, 7963 08:29:15,680 --> 08:29:19,360 Rep. Roberto Nazal: yung mga kasama na dun sa YACAP gamot at sa YACAP clinics, 7964 08:29:19,560 --> 08:29:21,280 Rep. Roberto Nazal: ay hindi na po nila kailangan i-purchase. 7965 08:29:21,280 --> 08:29:21,840 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes. 7966 08:29:21,840 --> 08:29:23,160 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Pwede na lang bilhin dun sa... 7967 08:29:23,180 --> 08:29:27,700 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Yung mga pera nila, yung mga gamot na lang na kailangan na wala dun sa YACAP gamot. 7968 08:29:27,920 --> 08:29:30,240 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes. Actually, BJMP is doing that already. 7969 08:29:30,800 --> 08:29:33,180 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Pero dapat po sigurong pa-ingtingin pa, 7970 08:29:33,720 --> 08:29:41,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: lalo na ang coordination sa ating mga LGUs na may YACAP and gamot program. 7971 08:29:41,820 --> 08:29:48,180 Rep.

Roberto Nazal: And going to the BFP, Mr. Speaker... 7977 08:30:00,440 --> 08:30:04,560 Rep. Roberto Nazal: We already discussed BFP extensively during the committee hearing. 7978 08:30:05,140 --> 08:30:07,740 Rep. Roberto Nazal: So hindi ko na puulitin yung aking detailed questions. 7979 08:30:08,500 --> 08:30:13,320 Rep. Roberto Nazal: But the CPBRD's review of COA findings shows that as of the end of 2025, 7980 08:30:14,680 --> 08:30:19,260 Rep. Roberto Nazal: 100 municipalities still had no activated fire stations. 7981 08:30:19,800 --> 08:30:22,780 Rep. Roberto Nazal: 64 had neither a fire station or a fire truck. 7982 08:30:23,340 --> 08:30:27,780 Rep.

Roberto Nazal: and 36,888 fireman's hoods. 7985 08:30:35,800 --> 08:30:40,880 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Considering that the BFP has its regular appropriations plus fire code earmarked revenues, 7986 08:30:41,700 --> 08:30:44,280 Rep. Roberto Nazal: specifically available for modernization, 7987 08:30:45,740 --> 08:30:48,920 Rep. Roberto Nazal: may we request the BFP to submit to this representation 7988 08:30:48,920 --> 08:30:54,080 Rep. Roberto Nazal: a national master plan for completely closing these gaps. 7989 08:30:54,700 --> 08:30:57,760 Rep. Roberto Nazal: For every LGU still lacking a fire station, 7990 08:30:57,780 --> 08:30:59,400 Rep. Roberto Nazal: or fire truck, 7991 08:30:59,780 --> 08:31:02,100 Rep.

Roberto Nazal: Isa pa pong tanong ko is, 7998 08:31:17,700 --> 08:31:22,780 Rep. Roberto Nazal: meron po ba tayong guideline or a scientific basis 7999 08:31:23,360 --> 08:31:26,360 Rep. Roberto Nazal: on how many fire stations and fire trucks 8000 08:31:26,360 --> 08:31:27,680 Rep. Roberto Nazal: should there be, 8001 08:31:27,680 --> 08:31:28,680 Rep. Roberto Nazal: for example, 8002 08:31:28,680 --> 08:31:32,680 Rep. Roberto Nazal: pagka may one municipality na halimbawa 30 baranggays. 8003 08:31:34,680 --> 08:31:38,000 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Tapos if the units are old na, 8004 08:31:38,280 --> 08:31:40,800 Rep. Roberto Nazal: let's say mga 3 or 4 years old, 8005 08:31:40,900 --> 08:31:43,560 Rep. Roberto Nazal: kailan po ba siya dapat i-replace? 8006 08:31:44,060 --> 08:31:46,660 Rep. Roberto Nazal: Kailan po ba siya nagiging obsolete? 8007 08:31:47,140 --> 08:31:47,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Okay. 8008 08:31:48,280 --> 08:31:49,560 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Sinsay lang po natin, no? 8009 08:31:49,740 --> 08:31:51,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So since marami po yan, 8010 08:31:51,460 --> 08:31:53,560 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: talaga pong maraming challenges ang BFP. 8011 08:31:53,560 --> 08:31:57,620 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And I totally agree with my idol, Congressman Nazal. 8012 08:31:57,680 --> 08:32:01,120 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: That's why we are asking for budget. 8013 08:32:01,740 --> 08:32:04,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Na hindi naman po talaga galing sa ga'a. 8014 08:32:04,580 --> 08:32:08,440 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ang inihingi po natin yung sa fees na para po sa kanila. 8015 08:32:09,040 --> 08:32:10,320 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Because according to our data, 8016 08:32:11,440 --> 08:32:13,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: ang ginawa po natin pala before that, 8017 08:32:13,420 --> 08:32:14,300 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: even last year, 8018 08:32:15,160 --> 08:32:17,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: dapat po data-driven bago po magplano. 8019 08:32:18,080 --> 08:32:21,660 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Because we might be buying a thousand-gallon fire truck 8020 08:32:21,660 --> 08:32:23,580 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: pero hindi makakapasok dahil napakalaki. 8021 08:32:24,280 --> 08:32:27,300 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So ganoon na po yung ginawa ng Bureau of Fire and Protection. 8022 08:32:27,680 --> 08:32:29,340 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So it's not only the cleansing, 8023 08:32:29,880 --> 08:32:31,060 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: but even the planning. 8024 08:32:31,640 --> 08:32:34,620 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But their planning is basing on the data. 8025 08:32:35,360 --> 08:32:36,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And as of now, 8026 08:32:36,840 --> 08:32:39,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 61 po ang kulang pa natin na fire station. 8027 08:32:40,700 --> 08:32:42,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Fire trucks, 106. 8028 08:32:43,280 --> 08:32:45,140 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And kung tatanungin niyo po, ano yung lifespan? 8029 08:32:45,860 --> 08:32:46,800 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Hanggang 20 years. 8030 08:32:47,460 --> 08:32:49,680 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So ang inuna po talaga ng Bureau of Fire ngayon, 8031 08:32:50,220 --> 08:32:52,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: lalo na po yung mga 40-year-old na fire trucks, 8032 08:32:52,540 --> 08:32:54,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: so wala pong politika, 8033 08:32:55,580 --> 08:32:56,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: but depending sa necessity 8034 08:32:56,540 --> 08:32:59,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: ng ating local government units, 8035 08:32:59,900 --> 08:33:01,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: and we want this done. 8036 08:33:02,020 --> 08:33:03,600 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: All we need is the release. 8037 08:33:04,460 --> 08:33:07,720 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And with the supervision of our good secretary 8038 08:33:07,720 --> 08:33:09,580 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: who cleansed the BFP, 8039 08:33:10,420 --> 08:33:12,640 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: and even going to a government-to-government, 8040 08:33:13,000 --> 08:33:14,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: so mas magiging pong madali, 8041 08:33:14,700 --> 08:33:15,680 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: magiging transparent, 8042 08:33:16,300 --> 08:33:17,760 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: and sasabi ko may accountability, 8043 08:33:18,600 --> 08:33:20,780 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: wala pong korupsyon na pwedeng mangyari. 8044 08:33:21,480 --> 08:33:22,760 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Government there now, 8045 08:33:22,940 --> 08:33:24,340 Rep. Arnie B.

Fuentebella: so papunta na po tayo doon. 8048 08:33:29,600 --> 08:33:31,280 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So hindi lang po paglinis na nga hanay 8049 08:33:31,280 --> 08:33:32,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: ng ating personnel, 8050 08:33:32,960 --> 08:33:34,500 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: even po yung ating equipment, 8051 08:33:35,300 --> 08:33:37,220 Rep. Arnie B.

Fuentebella: So we have to think of a lot of ways. 8058 08:33:49,820 --> 08:33:52,280 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So these are, we know the problem, 8059 08:33:52,860 --> 08:33:53,940 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: and we know the solution. 8060 08:33:54,540 --> 08:33:55,540 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: And the solution is, 8061 08:33:55,540 --> 08:33:59,980 Rep. Arnie B.

Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Let me move on to another topic, Mr. Speaker, Ginong Sponsor. 9590 09:18:08,640 --> 09:18:10,920 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Let's talk about the 911 hotline. 9591 09:18:11,580 --> 09:18:20,380 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Ayon po sa DILG, Unified 911 Emergency System officially went live last year in NCR, BARMM, Region 1, and Region 7. 9592 09:18:20,640 --> 09:18:21,740 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Pero sabi na, 9593 09:18:21,740 --> 09:18:25,740 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: sa PNP, nakadepende ang reliability ng hotline sa signal strength. 9594 09:18:27,120 --> 09:18:31,740 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: In areas with weak or no mobile signal, emergency calls may face connectivity issues. 9595 09:18:32,780 --> 09:18:37,840 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Ang tanong po ng ating mga kababayan, ibig sabihin po ba nito kapag walang signal, wala ding response? 9596 09:18:37,940 --> 09:18:41,600 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: May plano po ba ang DILG na magkaroon ng redundancy o offline system? 9597 09:18:42,440 --> 09:18:50,660 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, naandyan po, but we have to coordinate also with DICT since sa mandato rin po nila yan. 9598 09:18:51,740 --> 09:18:59,220 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: May pinamimigay na nga po ng mga Starlink, lalo na sa mga schools, lalo na sa mga walang signal na mga areas. 9599 09:18:59,840 --> 09:19:08,800 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So DILG is already coordinating with DICT para wala pong duplication sa ating pong pagagasahan, lalo na kung walang signal ang lugar. 9600 09:19:10,240 --> 09:19:14,220 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Napakahalaga po, Mr. Speaker, yun na, banggit na ating ginong sponsor, dapat walang duplication. 9601 09:19:14,220 --> 09:19:20,240 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Mr. Speaker, there's a directive ng DICT, may last mile po sila. 9602 09:19:20,400 --> 09:19:21,720 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, last mile. 9603 09:19:21,740 --> 09:19:24,900 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, yung kadulod-duluhan po, kailangan po magkasignal. 9604 09:19:26,060 --> 09:19:28,160 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Maraming salamat, ginong sponsor, Mr. Speaker. 9605 09:19:28,280 --> 09:19:34,640 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Ang tanong lamang po ay, so sa dulo po, kaninong budget kukuhanin yung ating investment for this last mile effort? 9606 09:19:35,540 --> 09:19:39,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: It's with the private sector, actually. 9607 09:19:41,320 --> 09:19:42,420 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Telcos po talaga. 9608 09:19:43,200 --> 09:19:47,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: But since may kakulangan, mapasok po yung nag-intervene ng government. 9609 09:19:47,980 --> 09:19:50,920 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Lalo na sa mga coastal areas. 9610 09:19:51,740 --> 09:19:53,640 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Wala pong telco na nakapasok. 9611 09:19:55,540 --> 09:20:03,240 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Nito pong nakaraang Augusto, may pagkaantala sa emergency response sa isang senior citizen sa Taguig. 9612 09:20:03,340 --> 09:20:07,620 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Ito po'y napabalita at nakalalungkot po dahil namatay siya kinalaunan. 9613 09:20:08,120 --> 09:20:14,620 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Paano po tinitiyak ng DILG na maayos ang coordination between our 911 dispatchers and our medical response units? 9614 09:20:15,300 --> 09:20:18,240 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ma'am, Mr. Speaker, can we get more specific? 9615 09:20:18,240 --> 09:20:21,240 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Since nabanggit ko naman po kanina na... 9616 09:20:21,740 --> 09:20:25,200 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Sa 911, million-million po yung tumatawag. 9617 09:20:25,360 --> 09:20:32,280 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, can you, I'll ask your indulgence to give us more specific data regarding this matter 9618 09:20:32,280 --> 09:20:40,160 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: so that we can answer appropriately and take action appropriately also, Mr. Speaker. 9619 09:20:40,500 --> 09:20:45,120 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Mr. Speaker, ginong sponsor, we will forward to your office the details of this incident in Taguig. 9620 09:20:45,120 --> 09:20:47,480 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: But this was widely reported in media. 9621 09:20:48,160 --> 09:20:50,620 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: Let me go to the more general question of how do we ensure... 9622 09:20:50,940 --> 09:20:55,700 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: yung mabilis na coordination between our dispatchers and our medical response units? 9623 09:20:55,700 --> 09:20:58,620 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, all the 911 are all recorded. 9624 09:20:58,980 --> 09:21:04,980 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: That's why sa data po natin, nakikita natin may prank call, ilan yung totoo, ilan po yung nasagi po natin. 9625 09:21:05,120 --> 09:21:07,560 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, we have these datas, Mr. Speaker. 9626 09:21:08,240 --> 09:21:14,460 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: So, kung meron po tayong naganyang datos, ilan na po ang natanggap na calls at ilan na po ang natugunan nating mga kababayan 9627 09:21:14,460 --> 09:21:17,480 Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña: sa ating 911 service, Mr. Speaker, ginong sponsor? 9628 09:21:17,480 --> 09:21:19,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Yes, I'll just pull up the data again. 9629 09:21:19,520 --> 09:21:34,800 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The calls is about 14,461,871 incoming calls. 9630 09:21:35,900 --> 09:21:40,260 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 13,931,388 handled calls. 9631 09:21:41,400 --> 09:21:44,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 96.33% handling efficiency. 9632 09:21:47,640 --> 09:21:48,700 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 530,483 abandoned. 9633 09:21:49,520 --> 09:21:55,340 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: 17,469 documented prank calls. 9634 09:21:56,040 --> 09:22:01,040 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: The volume is approximately 53,000 incoming calls per day. 9635 09:22:01,720 --> 09:22:05,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: So, if we get the specific, lalo yung sa Taguig, dahil recorded naman po yun, 9636 09:22:06,140 --> 09:22:09,600 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: kaya po natin malaman kung ano po yung nangyari po talaga doon. 9637 09:22:10,440 --> 09:22:12,620 Rep.

Percival "Perci" Cendaña: at infrastructure ng 911 command centers sa iba't-ibang mga regions sa Pilipinas? 9642 09:22:33,080 --> 09:22:38,120 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Mr. Speaker, can I be clarified of funding for this year or for the 2027? 9643 09:22:38,580 --> 09:22:40,040 Rep.

Fuentebella: this is not only the problem of the government. 9731 09:27:54,240 --> 09:27:55,820 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: As I've said a while ago, 9732 09:27:55,940 --> 09:27:58,520 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: I think this is a social problem. 9733 09:27:59,320 --> 09:28:02,780 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Especially with Facebook, 9734 09:28:03,820 --> 09:28:04,460 Rep. Arnie B.

Elago: Yung pagiging number one ng Pilipinas sa parity score sa Asia. 10181 09:46:15,860 --> 09:46:31,140 Rep. Sarah Jane I.

Elago: Dahil napakarami po nating NGAs at GOCCs. 10187 09:47:14,940 --> 09:47:27,380 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang number one po sa mga NGAs pagdating sa total GAD budget allocation, gayon din po sa percentage ng utilization, ay ang Department of Labor and Employment. 10188 09:47:27,820 --> 09:47:37,640 Rep.

Sarah Jane I. Elago: Isang ayon sa advisory ng PCW tungkol sa utilization ng GAD fund. 10215 09:50:01,320 --> 09:50:07,580 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pag sinabi po natin ang gender and development, hindi lang po ito tungkol, siyempre, sa mga kababaihan. 10216 09:50:07,580 --> 09:50:14,160 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pero tungkol po ito sa pagiging pantay ng mga kasarian, babae, lalaki, gender diverse people, 10217 09:50:14,820 --> 09:50:18,680 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: equal rights, equal opportunities, equal access to services. 10218 09:50:19,300 --> 09:50:22,420 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Yun po ang nais natin na magawa. 10219 09:50:23,000 --> 09:50:32,140 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kaya po, asa ngayon po ba hindi ma-confirm ng PCW kung ang particular seminar na ito ay mayroong endorsement mula sa kanila? 10220 09:50:33,080 --> 09:50:37,460 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Can we get the details of when was the seminar? 10221 09:50:37,640 --> 09:50:39,280 Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella: Ano yung particular ng seminar? 10222 09:50:39,860 --> 09:50:41,860 Rep.

Elago: Ang paggamit ng GAD budget para dito. 10229 09:51:11,820 --> 09:51:18,340 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil nag-a-advance yung ganitong tipo ng movement, na hindi ko na po gusto sabihin, 10230 09:51:18,920 --> 09:51:21,660 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng zero-sum agenda. 10231 09:51:22,480 --> 09:51:25,240 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Zero-sum agenda pagdating sa gender equality. 10232 09:51:25,460 --> 09:51:34,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: As if yung gains ng mga kababaihan sa pagtutulak ng pantay na karapatan ay kawalan ng ibang kasarian. 10233 09:51:34,480 --> 09:51:36,260 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Na hindi naman po ganun, diba? 10234 09:51:36,640 --> 09:51:37,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ang tinutulak 10235 09:51:37,580 --> 09:51:39,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: natin pagdating sa gender equality. 10236 09:51:39,860 --> 09:51:43,500 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pag sinabi natin na gender equality, pantay na karapatang pantao. 10237 09:51:44,320 --> 09:51:48,200 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pantay na access, pantay na opportunities. 10238 09:51:49,060 --> 09:51:53,920 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At sa tingin ko po, dapat ma-review ito mabuti ng PCW. 10239 09:51:54,360 --> 09:52:01,440 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Na hindi po natin papayagan ang kahit anong tipo ng amplification, ng backlash sa women's movement. 10240 09:52:01,440 --> 09:52:06,440 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngayon pa lang po, napaka-alaki na ng paniningil. 10241 09:52:07,580 --> 09:52:17,380 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Para bang yung kababaihan pa po ang may kasalanan na kung bakit sinasabi nila na meron pang hindi pantay na mga karapatan. 10242 09:52:17,500 --> 09:52:24,540 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Samantalang, ang dahilan naman po kung bakit may particular attention tayo sa women's rights, 10243 09:52:25,020 --> 09:52:27,160 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa access ng women sa iba't ibang services. 10244 09:52:27,420 --> 09:52:29,980 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil sa karapatan pa lang sa pagboto. 10245 09:52:30,520 --> 09:52:34,300 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: No, 1937 pa lang natin nakuha yung pantay na karapatan. 10246 09:52:34,300 --> 09:52:37,460 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dito sa kapulungan na ito sa kongreso, 1941 lang. 10247 09:52:37,580 --> 09:52:40,480 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Unang nagkaroon na representative na babae. 10248 09:52:40,940 --> 09:52:45,580 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kaya po, ibig sabihin, marami tayong mga batas, marami tayong mga panukala. 10249 09:52:45,900 --> 09:52:50,300 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang wala pong benepisyon ng perspektiba ng mga kababaihan sa pagpapatupad. 10250 09:52:51,240 --> 09:52:59,200 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Yan nga pong dahilan kung bakit ang PCW, meron din silang sinusulong na women's priority legislative agenda. 10251 09:52:59,200 --> 09:53:07,140 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Para po, yung mga nakikita natin, mga discriminatory pa, ng mga probisyon sa ating mga batas, ay tuluyan na natin maibasura. 10252 09:53:07,580 --> 09:53:11,600 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kaya po, nananawagan ako, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Sponsor sa PCW, 10253 09:53:11,740 --> 09:53:17,080 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sana naman po yung ating mga i-endorso ng mga GAD plan and budget. 10254 09:53:17,200 --> 09:53:21,820 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Matiyak po natin na kada seminar, kada activity, kada proyekto dyan, 10255 09:53:21,920 --> 09:53:25,120 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ay tunay na magsusulong po ng pantay na karapatan. 10256 09:53:25,220 --> 09:53:28,260 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hindi lang po ng babae, ng lahat, ng Pilipino. 10257 09:53:29,240 --> 09:53:35,680 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nabanggit ko po ito dahil I'm concerning na maliit na nga po ang budget ng PCW, lalo pang niliitan. 10258 09:53:35,680 --> 09:53:45,180 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Meron pong 13% budget cut ang PCW, lalong-lalo na sa kanilang programa para sa planning, management, and monitoring 10259 09:53:45,280 --> 09:53:49,280 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng gender mainstreaming rules sa ilalim ng Magna Carta of Women. 10260 09:53:49,380 --> 09:53:57,280 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Meron ding malaking kaltas ang provision ng technical assistance, advisory, at capacity building on gender and development. 10261 09:53:57,380 --> 09:54:05,180 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ibig sabihin, yung pinaka ginagawa po ng PCW para matiyak na talagang compliant ang lahat po ng agency 10262 09:54:05,180 --> 09:54:08,080 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa integration, hindi separation ng GAD budget. 10263 09:54:08,180 --> 09:54:14,080 Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Yun po kasing nakita nating trend pa rin ngayon sa mga agencies na parang laging hiwalay yung GAD budget 10264 09:54:14,180 --> 09:54:19,080 Rep. Sarah Jane I.
