Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000249
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:32.240
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So my follow-up question, without

asr-000250
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:34.560
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: disclosing sensitive coverage

asr-000251
00:14:34.560 --> 00:14:36.440
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: or deployment details, what

asr-000252
00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:38.320
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: limits the department's

asr-000253
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:40.720
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: ability to verify significant

asr-000254
00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:42.060
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: maritime developments

asr-000255
00:14:42.060 --> 00:14:42.880
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: promptly?

asr-000257
00:15:04.800 --> 00:15:10.600
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, there are several factors to be considered, but mainly it's the accuracy of the information.

asr-000258
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:12.540
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What's that again?

asr-000259
00:15:12.820 --> 00:15:15.740
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The accuracy of the information, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000260
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:18.800
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000261
00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:26.540
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: My next question, does the proposed budget address those constraints through better information sharing,

asr-000262
00:15:26.540 --> 00:15:32.860
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: additional operating resources, or new surveillance capabilities?

asr-000263
00:15:32.860 --> 00:15:33.700
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Capabilities.

asr-000264
00:15:53.320 --> 00:15:54.720
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000265
00:15:55.180 --> 00:15:56.520
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The idea is that...

asr-000266
00:15:56.540 --> 00:15:58.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: It's a stepping stone.

asr-000267
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:06.900
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: We want a gradual increase in operations as well.

asr-000268
00:16:08.020 --> 00:16:10.780
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: As far as your surveillance capabilities, Mr. Speaker?

asr-000269
00:16:10.980 --> 00:16:11.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000270
00:16:11.800 --> 00:16:20.100
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: How are the information expenditure requirements coordinated with the Philippine Coast Guard and other relevant agencies?

asr-000271
00:16:24.100 --> 00:16:26.100
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: There is real-time coordination information.

asr-000272
00:16:26.540 --> 00:16:39.380
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, you mean the coordination between the Philippine Coast Guard and other relevant agencies required expenditure and sharing of information.

asr-000273
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:41.900
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, paano nyo ginagawa yun?

asr-000274
00:16:44.760 --> 00:16:47.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The department has fusion centers.

asr-000275
00:16:48.620 --> 00:16:49.180
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What's that?

asr-000276
00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:51.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Fusion centers, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000277
00:16:51.300 --> 00:16:51.380
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000278
00:16:51.380 --> 00:16:53.700
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Then, my follow-up question.

asr-000279
00:16:54.380 --> 00:16:56.380
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What improvements should Filipino fishermen...

asr-000280
00:16:56.540 --> 00:17:01.680
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: and civilian maritime personnel expect in case of emergency?

asr-000281
00:17:03.260 --> 00:17:07.300
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Communication assistance and coordination during incidents at sea?

asr-000282
00:17:09.260 --> 00:17:13.640
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, ano pong inaasaan ng ating mga fishermen in case na, as we know,

asr-000283
00:17:14.040 --> 00:17:17.140
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: lagi natin napapanood, laging may aksidente niyan?

asr-000284
00:17:17.140 --> 00:17:17.360
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000285
00:17:24.900 --> 00:17:37.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The Coast Guard is increasing its fleet. It is also coordinating with the Philippines with regard to increasing the fleet capacity.

asr-000286
00:17:37.620 --> 00:17:46.600
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, does the fisherman, inaalalayan ba sila ng ating mga Coast Guard pag sila'y nasa laot?

asr-000364
00:17:46.600 --> 00:17:54.020
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Are they being given instruction or advice where to go, where to do their fishing?

asr-000365
00:17:55.680 --> 00:18:04.400
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Pag nangingisda sila, mayroon ba tayong sinusunod na or area kung saan sila pwede maghanap buhay?

asr-000366
00:18:05.180 --> 00:18:05.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000367
00:18:06.460 --> 00:18:11.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The Coast Guard and the BFAR, there is also assistance for fuel.

asr-000368
00:18:12.840 --> 00:18:16.340
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Then, my next question, balikatan exercises.

asr-000369
00:18:16.600 --> 00:18:20.760
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Defense benefits, costs, and management of regional tension.

asr-000370
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:26.900
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: The Philippines has broadened its joint military activities with defense partners,

asr-000371
00:18:27.080 --> 00:18:30.240
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: including the United States, Japan, France.

asr-000372
00:18:30.900 --> 00:18:39.100
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Balikatan 2026 included activities in Itbayat, Batanes, near Taiwan, and drew criticism from China.

asr-000373
00:18:39.100 --> 00:18:48.030
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Question: What specific defense objectives do these exercises seek to achieve?

asr-000382
00:19:16.600 --> 00:19:17.620
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000383
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:20.360
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The objective really is terrain awareness.

asr-000384
00:19:21.540 --> 00:19:25.980
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The idea of the department is a whole 360 terrain awareness.

asr-000385
00:19:27.180 --> 00:19:34.900
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, all of the exercises, air exercises, land exercises, are in pursuit of that objective of terrain awareness.

asr-000386
00:19:35.140 --> 00:19:41.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, it's basically acclimatizing our troops towards the terrain.

asr-000387
00:19:42.060 --> 00:19:46.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Another objective also is to introduce our troops to new types of defense.

asr-000388
00:19:46.060 --> 00:19:47.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Types of weaponry and machinery.

asr-000389
00:19:48.120 --> 00:19:55.720
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, in short, we do this exercise through awareness.

asr-000390
00:19:55.980 --> 00:19:57.160
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Ito yung gusto natin malaman.

asr-000391
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:03.980
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: At the same time, siguro para matrain din ang ating mga sandatang lakas.

asr-000392
00:20:03.980 --> 00:20:12.400
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: My question, do China think this balikatan exercise as an aggressive toward them?

asr-000393
00:20:40.740 --> 00:20:42.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000417
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Given the scale of the operations, there won't be any reason for it to be treated as aggression.

asr-000418
00:20:52.760 --> 00:20:55.340
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: At least that is the stance of the department.

asr-000419
00:20:56.660 --> 00:21:06.180
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Then again, all of these joint activities are somewhat construed as provocative given its objective.

asr-000420
00:21:06.840 --> 00:21:09.800
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor.

asr-000421
00:21:09.800 --> 00:21:18.000
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What measurable improvements in the armed forces' capabilities have resulted from previous exercises?

asr-000422
00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:24.780
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Did we gain anything from the Balikatan exercises as far as our armed forces is concerned?

asr-000423
00:21:39.800 --> 00:21:47.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000424
00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:59.800
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Actually, one of the successes of the Balikatan exercises is that the experience of those exercises enabled the Philippines to lead a 40-fighter strike in Australia.

asr-000425
00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:06.000
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, it just shows the increase in the capabilities of our troops because of these Balikatan exercises.

asr-000426
00:22:06.660 --> 00:22:06.840
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000427
00:22:07.300 --> 00:22:09.780
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Last question for this particular department.

asr-000428
00:22:09.800 --> 00:22:12.420
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Balikatan exercises, and I move to the other topic.

asr-000429
00:22:12.420 --> 00:22:25.540
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What measures are in place to prevent miscalculation and manage regional tensions while preserving the Philippines' independent defense decision?

asr-000430
00:22:32.560 --> 00:22:37.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, it's strict adherence to UNCLOS and international law.

asr-000431
00:22:37.360 --> 00:22:37.900
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: UNCLOS.

asr-000432
00:22:39.800 --> 00:22:42.480
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: And I'll move to my next topic, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000433
00:22:43.100 --> 00:22:48.720
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: This regards the drone expansion, artificial intelligence, and secure systems.

asr-000434
00:22:50.060 --> 00:22:59.620
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: August 25, 2026, Budget Hearing Secretary Teodoro discussed expanding the military's unmanned capabilities.

asr-000435
00:22:59.620 --> 00:23:09.080
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: He emphasized that effective use requires operational integration, secure communication, and supporting networks,

asr-000436
00:23:09.080 --> 00:23:12.720
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: not simply the acquisition of more drones.

asr-000437
00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:13.660
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Question.

asr-000438
00:23:14.380 --> 00:23:26.920
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: How does proposed 2027 budget ensure that drone acquisitions are accompanied by the systems and trained personnel needed to use them effectively?

asr-000441
00:23:47.320 --> 00:23:48.260
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000442
00:23:48.500 --> 00:23:54.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, these integration systems are being introduced in this particular budget.

asr-000443
00:23:55.380 --> 00:24:04.800
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: This would be under C4ISTAR, so Command, Control, Communication, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance,

asr-000444
00:24:04.800 --> 00:24:08.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: which is one of the core pillars of the comprehensive archipelagic defense concept.

asr-000445
00:24:09.080 --> 00:24:17.140
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Do you know how, Mr. Speaker, do you know how, and District Sponsor, do you know how much the budget for these drones?

asr-000446
00:24:34.540 --> 00:24:39.000
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: For the fiscal year 2027 proposed budget,

asr-000447
00:24:39.080 --> 00:24:42.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, it's the funding of the governance systems first before,

asr-000448
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:46.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the governance systems for the drones before we actually use the drones.

asr-000449
00:24:47.360 --> 00:24:50.480
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, we need to fund the governance systems first.

asr-000450
00:24:52.140 --> 00:25:00.580
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Does the department use artificial intelligence models to process imagery,

asr-000451
00:25:00.580 --> 00:25:07.920
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: identify unusual activity, or prioritize information for human analysts?

asr-000452
00:25:24.780 --> 00:25:27.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The department cannot disclose.

asr-000453
00:25:29.020 --> 00:25:30.120
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Come again?

asr-000454
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:31.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The department cannot disclose.

asr-000455
00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:32.700
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Cannot?

asr-000456
00:25:33.100 --> 00:25:33.700
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Disclose.

asr-000457
00:25:33.700 --> 00:25:34.300
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay.

asr-000458
00:25:35.900 --> 00:25:36.900
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Fair enough.

asr-000459
00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:38.980
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Next question.

asr-000460
00:25:39.080 --> 00:25:50.760
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Would additional funding produce greater benefits if directed toward analytical personnel, communications, and maintenance rather than additional equipment alone?

asr-000461
00:25:52.360 --> 00:25:53.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000462
00:25:53.620 --> 00:25:54.320
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay. Thank you.

asr-000463
00:25:54.800 --> 00:25:56.320
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Now, I move to another topic.

asr-000464
00:25:56.760 --> 00:26:01.160
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Expanded defense partnerships and their budgetary requirements.

asr-000465
00:26:01.980 --> 00:26:07.020
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: The Philippines and France signed a visiting forces agreement in March 2026.

asr-000466
00:26:07.020 --> 00:26:09.020
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: The proposed performance documents,

asr-000467
00:26:09.080 --> 00:26:19.180
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: the target for bilateral and multilateral engagement also rises from 159 in 2026 to 242 in 2027.

asr-000468
00:26:19.180 --> 00:26:20.060
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Question.

asr-000469
00:26:20.820 --> 00:26:29.360
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: What capability gains justify the proposed increase in bilateral and multilateral engagement?

asr-000485
00:27:47.080 --> 00:28:14.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker. There are classified capability changes that the department is already observing with regard to our capabilities and defense posture. That would justify the increase of the targets of our bilateral and multilateral partnerships with other government partners.

asr-000486
00:28:14.040 --> 00:28:28.700
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Thank you. Next, I have only three last questions, three questions. What arrangements determine which costs are borne by the Philippines and which are borne by partner countries?

asr-000489
00:29:08.940 --> 00:29:17.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The general rule is, if it's an expense incurred of our troops, of our machinery, then that's our counterpart cost.

asr-000490
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:25.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Whereas, those that involve the troops and the machinery of counterparts, then the counterparts bear that cost.

asr-000491
00:29:27.580 --> 00:29:30.080
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: So, in short, what's the proposition? Kanya-kanya sila?

asr-000492
00:29:30.260 --> 00:29:30.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes.

asr-000493
00:29:30.980 --> 00:29:35.040
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Most likely, it's a 50-50 proposition. Fair enough. Thank you.

asr-000494
00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:37.980
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Next, how does the department assess?

asr-000495
00:29:37.980 --> 00:29:44.880
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Whether participation improves operational proficiency or interoperability?

asr-000496
00:29:50.020 --> 00:29:58.620
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, every exercise, Mr. Speaker, is scored. There is an assessment with regards to indicators.

asr-000497
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:17.940
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: For my last question, which recently completed defense initiative has produced the clearest measurable improvement relative to its cost and what made it successful?

asr-000498
00:30:45.300 --> 00:30:54.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, the department says it's Exercise Pitch Black, which was conducted in Australia.

asr-000498-split-2
00:30:54.780 --> 00:30:55.600
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Exercise what?

asr-000498-split-3
00:30:55.600 --> 00:30:59.440
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Pitch Black. Pitch Black.

asr-000499
00:31:01.260 --> 00:31:01.840
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: In Australia.

asr-000500
00:31:02.580 --> 00:31:16.760
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus: Okay. Again, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor, I support the budget of Department of National Defense and to the ND family, thank you for your service. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000501
00:31:17.740 --> 00:31:18.260
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong: Leader.

asr-000502
00:31:19.560 --> 00:31:28.340
Rep. Arnan C. Panaligan: Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize the Honorable Sarah Jane Elago of Partylist Gabriela Women's Party for her interpellation.

asr-000503
00:31:28.340 --> 00:31:29.900
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong: Honorable Sarah Jane.

asr-000504
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:32.320
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong: Elago is recognized. Please proceed.

asr-000505
00:31:34.940 --> 00:31:37.160
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker.

asr-000506
00:31:38.540 --> 00:31:46.520
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Una tungkol sa tatag ng infrastruktura para sa kapayapaan at siguridad projects o mga tikas projects.

asr-000507
00:31:47.420 --> 00:31:59.640
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mula taong 2019 hanggang 2025, may total budget ang tikas program, ang convergence program ng DND at DPWH na P38.03 billion.

asr-000508
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:09.160
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mula 2019 hanggang end of 2025, ilan na nga ba talaga ang total approved tikas projects?

asr-000509
00:32:09.740 --> 00:32:17.660
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ilan dito ang complete, ongoing, delayed, unusable, suspended, at magsisimula pa lang?

asr-000510
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:29.660
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang mga katanungan po na ito ay naitanong na rin natin noong budget briefing, ngunit hindi po tayo nakakuha noong detalyado na status report na kada proyekto.

asr-000511
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:40.000
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At medyo nalito pa po tayo dahil magkakaiba po yung bilang ng proyekto na naibigay po sa representasyon na ito.

asr-000512
00:32:41.540 --> 00:33:02.640
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Una, noong October 8, 2025, sang-ayon po kay DND Secretary Chodoro sa isang news report, sinabi na may 944 approved projects mula 2019 at 648 projects dito ang kumpleto na.

asr-000513
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:28.840
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngunit sa pareho, ayon naman kay AFP Chief of Staff Brawner, from 2019 to 2025, ang TIKAS po ay may 927 approved infrastructure projects, samantalang 663 ang completed at meron pang 139 na ongoing.

asr-000514
00:33:28.840 --> 00:33:57.700
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nakuha natin na submission mula sa Department of National Defense. Mula 2021 hanggang 2026, ang Philippine Army may 472 TICAS projects worth 14.496 billion. At para naman sa Philippine Air Force, mula taong 2019 hanggang 2025, meron pong 159 projects worth 4.806 billion.

asr-000515
00:33:57.700 --> 00:34:16.940
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Yung bilang po na nakuha natin mula sa 2021 hanggang 2026 sa Philippine Army at mula sa 2019 hanggang 2025 ay hindi po nagtutugma dun sa 900 plus approved projects na unang nabalita mula noong nakaraang taon.

asr-000516
00:34:17.380 --> 00:34:26.340
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maari po ba itong maipaliwanag ng ating distinguished sponsor? At kung maaari po makapagbigay kayo ng ano po ba talaga yung datos?

asr-000517
00:34:26.340 --> 00:34:29.960
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pagdating sa mga proyektong ito.

asr-000518
00:34:29.960 --> 00:35:23.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. For the TIKAS program, if I may enumerate: for the Philippine Army from 2021 to 2026, the number of projects is 413. That is the total number of projects, 413. For the Philippine Air Force from 2019 to 2025, it is 159 projects. For the Philippine Navy from 2019 to 2025, it is 117 projects. And then the GHQ proper from 2020 to 2026 is 233 projects. So that totals to 922 total projects.

asr-000519
00:35:23.880 --> 00:35:26.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: With regards to completion,

asr-000520
00:35:26.340 --> 00:35:35.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: For those that have been completed, for the Philippine Army, it's 273 completed projects.

asr-000521
00:35:36.200 --> 00:35:42.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: For the Philippine Air Force, it's 133 completed projects.

asr-000522
00:35:43.040 --> 00:35:47.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The Philippine Navy, 91 completed projects.

asr-000523
00:35:48.260 --> 00:35:51.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: GHQ proper, 12 completed.

asr-000524
00:35:51.040 --> 00:35:56.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So that's a total of 509 projects.

asr-000525
00:35:56.340 --> 00:36:08.000
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mr. Speaker, saan po nanggagaling yung nasa 400 plus na unaccounted dun po sa naiulat ninyo?

asr-000526
00:36:08.120 --> 00:36:16.800
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kasi ang sabi po noong October 2025, 944 po yung total na bilang ng approved projects.

asr-000527
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:20.660
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At mangingila lang po ako ng detalya nito.

asr-000528
00:36:21.320 --> 00:36:26.200
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pwede po ba natin kunin ang commitment ng ating distinguished sponsor, ang DND, pagdating po?

asr-000529
00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:28.420
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa report mismo.

asr-000530
00:36:28.580 --> 00:36:33.460
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kasi gusto po natin makita saan ba yung lakasyon, saan ba napunta yung pondo,

asr-000531
00:36:33.940 --> 00:36:36.980
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: natapos na ba talaga ang mga infrastruktura,

asr-000532
00:36:37.900 --> 00:36:47.960
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: upang matiyak natin na ang pondo po ng ating bayan ay napupunta talaga sa kung saan ito layon na magasta.

asr-000533
00:36:48.780 --> 00:36:52.880
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngayon po, yung nabanggit nyo ng mga completed na mga projects,

asr-000534
00:36:53.140 --> 00:36:55.800
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: lahat ba ito may turnover documents na?

asr-000535
00:36:56.340 --> 00:37:00.420
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At lahat ba ito ay natayo sa mga lupa na meron ng titulo?

asr-000536
00:37:00.420 --> 00:37:01.420
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Thank you.

asr-000537
00:37:49.350 --> 00:37:56.320
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mr. Speaker, tumatakbo ang aking oras. May I pause habang naghihintay sa ating distinguished sponsor?

asr-000538
00:37:56.320 --> 00:37:57.360
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At yung ating distinguished sponsor.

asr-000539
00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:11.340
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, well, first, just to address the number.

asr-000540
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:16.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Ito po kasing number 922, ito po yung completed.

asr-000541
00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:25.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But meron kasi tayo ng mga projects na designed.

asr-000542
00:38:26.320 --> 00:38:28.200
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Depende kasi yun dun sa design.

asr-000543
00:38:28.380 --> 00:38:30.220
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So minsan nagkakaproblema po tayo dun.

asr-000544
00:38:30.860 --> 00:38:34.640
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Kaya po, hindi po siya nako-complete.

asr-000545
00:38:34.940 --> 00:38:40.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Kasi besides na iba yung disenyo, minsan po yung lupa may dispute.

asr-000546
00:38:40.700 --> 00:38:42.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Minsan din po may facing.

asr-000547
00:38:42.560 --> 00:38:47.600
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So yung binention ko po na 509 na completed projects,

asr-000548
00:38:48.420 --> 00:38:55.520
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: completed po siya kasi yun po talaga yung na-turnover na proper documentation and all that.

asr-000549
00:38:55.520 --> 00:38:55.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But,

asr-000550
00:38:56.320 --> 00:39:00.980
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: yung rest po, yung differential na yung 122 at saka ng 509,

asr-000551
00:39:01.620 --> 00:39:03.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: may facing po kasi talaga siya.

asr-000552
00:39:04.860 --> 00:39:07.720
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Gusto rin pong sabihin ng departamento na

asr-000553
00:39:07.720 --> 00:39:12.240
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ang implementing agency po ng TCAS ay ang DPWH.

asr-000554
00:39:13.260 --> 00:39:18.440
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, kung may mga ganito pong mga katanungan in terms of

asr-000555
00:39:18.440 --> 00:39:21.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ano yung rason for the delays,

asr-000556
00:39:22.740 --> 00:39:26.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: DPWH po ang mapapagtanungan natin ng mga konserwasyon.

asr-000557
00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:26.680
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Or na yun.

asr-000558
00:39:28.080 --> 00:39:35.520
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mister Speaker, hindi po ba kasaba ang DND sa nag-issue ng Joint Memorandum Circular No. 44,

asr-000559
00:39:36.060 --> 00:39:37.320
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: series of 2024?

asr-000560
00:39:38.080 --> 00:39:41.940
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maari po ba itong balikan ng ating Distinguished Sponsor at ng ating departamento?

asr-000561
00:39:43.600 --> 00:39:50.400
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Anong sinasabi dyan na obligation po ng DND pagdating sa monitoring at evaluation

asr-000562
00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:54.520
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng mga proyekto sa ilalim ng TCAS program?

asr-000564
00:40:26.320 --> 00:40:49.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker. As of now, with regards to those that have been the ongoing projects from the time before 2025, continuing pa po yung validation of these projects.

asr-000565
00:40:51.380 --> 00:40:56.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Nag-conduct po ng validation and assessment din ang Department of National Defense.

asr-000566
00:40:56.320 --> 00:40:58.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: In terms of kamusta yung mga structure.

asr-000567
00:40:59.700 --> 00:41:04.400
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But yung implementing agency po talaga kasi ay DPWH.

asr-000568
00:41:05.040 --> 00:41:20.600
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, pero on the part of the DND, we are assured na kung meron mang delays po doon sa implementation ng itong mga TICAS projects, ay nag-a-assess din po on-site ang DND.

asr-000569
00:41:21.320 --> 00:41:25.600
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Meron na po bang risulta ang inyong mga initial assessment?

asr-000570
00:41:26.320 --> 00:41:26.700
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: May ginawa?

asr-000571
00:41:27.180 --> 00:41:44.540
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Halimbawa, Mr. Speaker, nabanggit din po noong budget briefing na meron po for 2026, 27 non-implementable at may 51 na implementable pa na proyekto sa ilalim ng TICAS program.

asr-000572
00:41:46.900 --> 00:41:52.700
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ano po ba ang ibig sabihin ng binanggit na non-implementable?

asr-000573
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:55.700
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ibig sabihin po ba may mga limitations?

asr-000574
00:41:56.320 --> 00:42:04.760
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa paggamit ng budget? May mga, meron ba ang factor ng impossibility

asr-000575
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:08.840
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: dahil sa mga problema halimbawa sa lupa na katulad ng nabanggit

asr-000576
00:42:08.840 --> 00:42:13.460
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng ating distinguished sponsor? May update po ba kayo kung nagbago na

asr-000577
00:42:13.460 --> 00:42:17.000
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ang mga bilang na ito ng mga implementable at non-implementable?

asr-000578
00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:26.280
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker. Based on official data, ang terminated or suspended

asr-000579
00:42:26.280 --> 00:42:35.340
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: po na projects, one of the factors being may problema sa lupa, is 43.

asr-000580
00:42:36.040 --> 00:42:44.220
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: 43 projects. With regards to updates as to even those ongoing projects

asr-000581
00:42:44.220 --> 00:42:46.980
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: na might be terminated because of disputes in land

asr-000582
00:42:46.980 --> 00:42:49.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and other problems with implementation.

asr-000583
00:42:49.960 --> 00:42:56.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: implementation. Again, the DND cannot give information on it given that

asr-000584
00:42:56.880 --> 00:42:59.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the implementing agency would be the DPWH.

asr-000585
00:43:00.600 --> 00:43:04.460
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mr. Speaker, mahirap po na ganyan po ang kasagutan sa atin.

asr-000586
00:43:04.600 --> 00:43:10.920
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Dahil malinaw po sa DND-DPWH Joint Memorandum Circular No. 44,

asr-000587
00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:16.920
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Series of 2024, na may tatlo pong mahalaga na obligation dito ang DND.

asr-000588
00:43:16.980 --> 00:43:23.240
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Unang-una, lahat ng potential military infrastructure projects ay magmumula

asr-000589
00:43:23.240 --> 00:43:30.860
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa DND AFP units. Pangalawa, DND Secretary ang mag-e-endorse ng validated,

asr-000590
00:43:31.400 --> 00:43:36.800
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: evaluated, at prioritized list ng TICAS projects sa DPWH Secretary.

asr-000591
00:43:37.540 --> 00:43:44.420
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At pangatlo, at pinakamahalaga, Mr. Speaker, may obligasyon ang DND representative

asr-000592
00:43:44.420 --> 00:43:47.680
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa Joint Project Monitoring and

asr-000593
00:43:47.680 --> 00:44:08.720
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Supervising Team na mag-observe ng conduct ng procurement activities, mag-monitor ng project progress, mag-resolve ng issues habang ini-implement ang projects at magsumite ng monthly accomplishment reports.

asr-000594
00:44:08.720 --> 00:44:46.960
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ito po yung dahilan kung bakit hinihingi natin sa DND mismo yung lagay, yung status ng mga proyektong ito, dahil hindi naman po biro yung ₱38 billion. Mas mataas pa po yan sa buong budget ng DOST para sa susunod na taon. Kaya napakahalaga ng bawat piso na ginagastos sa mga proyektong ito. Ngayon naman, hihintayin po natin yung detalyadong status report na may kinalaman dito sa TIKAS program.

asr-000595
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:53.880
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngunit hayaan niyo po akong dumiretso sa naging sagot sa atin para sa TIKAS sa susunod na taon, for fiscal year 2027.

asr-000596
00:44:53.880 --> 00:45:04.830
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang sinasabi po ay walang TIKAS project para sa 2027. Tama po ba?

asr-000597
00:45:07.870 --> 00:45:12.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Wala na po. Wala na pong TIKAS projects for 2027 as per the DND. Opo.

asr-000598
00:45:12.080 --> 00:45:18.260
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngunit napansin din po ng representasyon na ito na may mga proyekto po sa ilalim ng DPWH,

asr-000599
00:45:19.800 --> 00:45:29.600
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa ilalim po ng Basic Infrastructure Program o BIP na nakalista sa ilalim ng TICAS program noong taong 2024 at 2025.

asr-000600
00:45:30.100 --> 00:45:34.280
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ibig sabihin po, project na po siya sa 2024 at 2025.

asr-000601
00:45:34.280 --> 00:45:40.280
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pero nagulat po kami na nalista po ulit sa BIP para sa taong 2027.

asr-000602
00:45:42.040 --> 00:45:50.780
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Noong tinignan po namin yung mga projects na ito sa DPWH website, napansin po namin na meron po dito expired na ang contracts.

asr-000603
00:45:51.760 --> 00:45:55.400
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pero hindi pa nagsisimula o ongoing pa lang ang proyekto.

asr-000604
00:45:56.040 --> 00:45:59.300
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: May mga proyekto din po na lagpas na sa project costs.

asr-000605
00:45:59.300 --> 00:46:00.880
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang nailaan na budget.

asr-000606
00:46:01.820 --> 00:46:05.560
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Halimbawa na lang, Mr. Speaker, sa Region 3 po.

asr-000607
00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:14.360
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Construction ng multi-purpose building, two-story unit barracks at boot camp, two area sa San Antonio, Zambales.

asr-000608
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:18.280
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang contract cost po ay 56.91 million.

asr-000609
00:46:18.780 --> 00:46:25.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Habang 60 million pesos ang nakalaan sa ilalim ng 2024 GAA.

asr-000610
00:46:26.280 --> 00:46:28.120
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: O baga may sobra pa pong konting million.

asr-000611
00:46:28.120 --> 00:46:29.120
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At may daan.

asr-000612
00:46:29.300 --> 00:46:34.340
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: May dagdag na 6.5 million pesos sa ilalim ng 2027 NEP.

asr-000613
00:46:35.820 --> 00:46:44.400
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ibig sabihin po, nalista na sa 2024 tapos may dagdag po na 6.5 million pesos sa 2027 NEP.

asr-000614
00:46:45.520 --> 00:46:52.580
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nagsimula po ang proyekto noong September 2024 at ang kontrata expired na ng July 2025.

asr-000615
00:46:53.280 --> 00:46:59.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Gayunman, ang sabi po dito sa DPWH website tungkol sa project,

asr-000616
00:46:59.140 --> 00:47:04.520
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: na ito, 66.81% pa lang po ang physical accomplishment.

asr-000617
00:47:05.460 --> 00:47:12.320
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Gayun din, tungkol naman po sa rehabilitation ng multi-purpose building,

asr-000618
00:47:12.460 --> 00:47:18.320
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: two units, six-door, married personal quarters, flat house, sa parehong lugar po.

asr-000619
00:47:18.680 --> 00:47:27.040
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ang contract cost ay 28.67 million pesos, habang 30 million pesos ang nasa 2025 na manag-AA.

asr-000620
00:47:27.040 --> 00:47:28.440
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At may dagdag po itong

asr-000621
00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:34.240
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: 25 million sa 2027 NEP.

asr-000622
00:47:34.240 --> 00:47:41.200
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hanggang ngayon po, 0% po ang nakareflex sa DPWH website na accomplishment ng proyekto na ito.

asr-000623
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:46.880
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Bakit po ba hindi natatapos ang mga proyekto sa loob ng naitakda na contract period?

asr-000624
00:47:47.600 --> 00:47:50.960
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At bakit po ba kailangan magkaroon ng dagdag na budget?

asr-000625
00:47:51.160 --> 00:47:52.500
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sino po ba yung nag-assess?

asr-000626
00:47:52.620 --> 00:47:57.120
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sino po yung nag-submit sa DPWH ng mga proyekto na ito?

asr-000627
00:47:57.120 --> 00:47:59.120
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Na napondohan na dati sa ilalim ng 2027 NEP.

asr-000628
00:47:59.140 --> 00:48:06.560
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Na napondohan na dati sa ilalim ng TICAS, hindi natapos, may dagdag na naman po tayo para sa 2027,

asr-000629
00:48:07.220 --> 00:48:10.400
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: na malinaw po sa item na TICAS pa rin.

asr-000630
00:48:10.680 --> 00:48:18.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: So hindi po totoo na wala pong TICAS program, maaari po hindi na TICAS po yung tawag,

asr-000631
00:48:18.340 --> 00:48:24.820
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: dahil ang sabi nga sa atin ng DPWH, nagkaroon na po sila ng consolidation ng mga infrastructure program.

asr-000632
00:48:25.180 --> 00:48:28.820
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: So hindi man ito TICAS, pero nakita po natin na pareho,

asr-000633
00:48:29.140 --> 00:48:33.620
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: yung line item na nakasulat po sa mga taon na ito.

asr-000634
00:48:37.860 --> 00:48:46.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, the Department takes note of these concerns and will review.

asr-000635
00:48:48.100 --> 00:48:55.000
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: If the distinguished colleague can also furnish us a copy of these details so we can review.

asr-000636
00:48:55.000 --> 00:49:02.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But for fiscal year 2027, the Department confirms that no TICAS projects have been submitted.

asr-000637
00:49:03.160 --> 00:49:05.940
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: There's no list of any projects under the TICAS program.

asr-000638
00:49:07.600 --> 00:49:08.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ay, sige po.

asr-000639
00:49:09.600 --> 00:49:16.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Ngayon, Mr. Speaker, ang nakakabahala po dito, kasi po ang sagot po sa atin ng DND noong budget briefing,

asr-000640
00:49:16.260 --> 00:49:17.980
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ay magtanong po tayo sa DPWH.

asr-000641
00:49:18.380 --> 00:49:20.680
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nung nagtanong po tayo sa DPWH,

asr-000642
00:49:22.080 --> 00:49:22.360
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ah,

asr-000643
00:49:23.680 --> 00:49:24.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: gusto ko pa,

asr-000644
00:49:24.340 --> 00:49:24.980
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sanang sabihin,

asr-000645
00:49:25.000 --> 00:49:26.140
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: na nagulat po ako,

asr-000646
00:49:26.340 --> 00:49:31.760
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: pero medyo hindi po ako nagulat doon sa sagot sa akin na wala rin pong update

asr-000647
00:49:31.760 --> 00:49:36.220
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: tungkol dito sa monitoring, evaluation,

asr-000648
00:49:36.680 --> 00:49:43.380
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: at pagchecheck ng bilyon-bilyon na pondo para po sa TICAS program.

asr-000649
00:49:44.240 --> 00:49:46.920
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At ang banggit po noon ni Secretary Dizon,

asr-000650
00:49:47.080 --> 00:49:51.240
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ay nung panahon na yun na chinecheck po natin itong TICAS program,

asr-000651
00:49:51.240 --> 00:49:53.620
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ay kakalagay niya lang din po sa DPWH.

asr-000652
00:49:53.980 --> 00:49:54.980
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At nagbigay naman po,

asr-000653
00:49:55.000 --> 00:49:59.660
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ng commitment na iimbestigahan at titignan ang proyekto na ito.

asr-000654
00:49:59.880 --> 00:50:05.480
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At yan din po ang aasahan natin na maitanong pagbalik ng DPWH dito sa plenaryo.

asr-000655
00:50:06.120 --> 00:50:12.900
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Pero dahil inunote na rin po ng ating distinguished sponsor at ng DND ang ating concern tungkol dito,

asr-000656
00:50:13.360 --> 00:50:18.880
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: napansin po namin na ang T2B3 Builders and Supplies Corporation

asr-000657
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:23.760
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: ay kabilang po sa contractors na nakuha sa mga TICAS projects.

asr-000658
00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:28.200
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Nakakuha rin po ito ng maraming government, infrastructure contracts,

asr-000659
00:50:28.800 --> 00:50:33.420
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: kabilang na po ang mga flood control projects.

asr-000660
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:37.620
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Sa TICAS project, halimbawa po,

asr-000661
00:50:38.380 --> 00:50:43.680
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa isa pong proyekto na T2B3 Builders and Supplies Corporation ang contractor,

asr-000662
00:50:44.520 --> 00:50:49.740
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: meron po silang isang proyekto na 66.81% lang po ang accomplishment

asr-000663
00:50:49.740 --> 00:50:53.740
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: kahit nag-expire na ang kontrata noong July 17, 2020.

asr-000664
00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:57.580
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: At hanggang ngayon, nakalista pa rin ang ongoing project.

asr-000665
00:50:58.300 --> 00:51:02.800
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Hindi po ba ito malinaw na red flag sa tingin po ng ating distinguished sponsor?

asr-000666
00:51:03.180 --> 00:51:11.180

asr-000695
00:53:53.760 --> 00:54:14.340
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Ang nakalagay lang po din sa budget for fiscal year 2027 would be yung regular camp expenses.

asr-000696
00:54:14.340 --> 00:54:22.180
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But, particularly for EDCA, wala po under the fiscal year 2027 proposed budget.

asr-000697
00:54:23.760 --> 00:54:25.540

asr-000701
00:54:41.300 --> 00:54:45.060

00:54:45.360 --> 00:54:49.800
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: nadamang-daman ng Pilipinas ngayon, sumirit na naman yung presyo ng langis,

asr-000703
00:54:49.800 --> 00:54:53.300
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: nararapat lang talaga na ang pamahalaan natin,

asr-000708
00:55:19.120 --> 00:55:21.840

00:55:23.300 --> 00:55:29.120
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: sa mga fisherfolk na affected ng fishing ban dahil sa balikatang exercises,

00:55:29.580 --> 00:55:37.320
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: nagtanong po ako sa BIFAR kung meron po silang specific line item para po sa pantulong sa ating affected fisherfolk.

00:55:37.780 --> 00:55:39.020

00:55:40.060 --> 00:55:43.740
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Maari po bang magbigay dito ng paglilinaw ang D&D?

00:55:43.740 --> 00:55:52.740
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kung paano po natin, kumbaga, hindi lang tinutulungan eh, pero dapat nga po natin iwasan yung na maapektuhan,

Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Mr. Speaker, for the interest of time, mahingina lang po tayo ng plano tungkol dito.

asr-000717
00:56:32.640 --> 00:56:40.240
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago: Kasi po, sa tingin ko po, ang hindi biro yung mga 3 to 5 days na hindi po nakakapangisda yung ating mga fisherfolk.

asr-000718
00:56:40.360 --> 00:56:42.440

01:11:18.780 --> 01:11:20.280
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: the current use of drones

01:11:28.700 --> 01:11:30.340
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: all for surveillance use

asr-001009
01:11:30.340 --> 01:11:32.340

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor?

asr-001012
01:11:39.100 --> 01:11:42.700
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, that's accurate, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001013
01:11:42.700 --> 01:11:43.670
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And drones are primarily

asr-001014
01:11:43.670 --> 01:11:44.740
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: used for surveillance and not

asr-001015
01:11:44.740 --> 01:11:46.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: for combat because of the lack of specific

asr-001016
01:11:46.720 --> 01:11:49.000
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: guidelines as alleged

asr-001017
01:11:49.000 --> 01:11:50.800
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: in our budget briefing. Is this

asr-001018
01:11:50.800 --> 01:11:52.160
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: correct, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor?

asr-001019

asr-001022
01:11:58.620 --> 01:12:00.660
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: militar, that the military is not

asr-001023
01:12:00.660 --> 01:12:02.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: capable of drone combat as of now

asr-001024
01:12:02.720 --> 01:12:04.840
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and there are no specific guidelines

asr-001025
01:12:04.840 --> 01:12:07.080
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: regarding its use, can the agency

asr-001026

asr-001029
01:12:12.760 --> 01:12:15.020

asr-001036
01:12:43.190 --> 01:12:45.040

Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: is tracing

asr-001038

asr-001039
01:12:48.740 --> 01:12:50.640
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: because as of now, the AFP

asr-001040
01:12:50.640 --> 01:12:52.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: does not possess the capability to

asr-001041

01:13:38.120 --> 01:13:39.480
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: mortar rounds?

asr-001064
01:13:42.320 --> 01:13:43.760
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, the AFP

asr-001065
01:13:43.760 --> 01:13:45.360
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: denies ownership

asr-001066
01:13:45.360 --> 01:13:47.760
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: of the drone operations.

asr-001067
01:13:48.400 --> 01:13:50.120
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: So the AFP

asr-001068
01:13:50.120 --> 01:13:51.820
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: is denying that this

asr-001069

01:14:03.140 --> 01:14:04.440
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: that happens

asr-001076
01:14:04.440 --> 01:14:06.100
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: because of the

asr-001077
01:14:06.100 --> 01:14:08.960
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: operation. So the AFP is denying

asr-001078

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: this, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.

01:16:32.900 --> 01:16:35.000
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: sponsor, on our research, it would

asr-001141
01:16:35.000 --> 01:16:36.740

01:19:53.260 --> 01:19:54.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At ilan po sila, Mr.

asr-001228
01:19:54.680 --> 01:19:55.400
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Speaker, good sponsor?

asr-001253
01:21:01.950 --> 01:21:15.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, there have been previous partnerships, but these relate to R&D projects, research and development, and scholarship programs. Mr. Speaker.

asr-001254
01:21:16.380 --> 01:21:26.740
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ilan po ang active partnerships ng AFP and DND sa mga universidad o mga paaralan na ganun po ang nature, Mr. Speaker? Good sponsor.

asr-001255
01:21:28.720 --> 01:21:53.020
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Because we have noted, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. Other than the University of the Philippines, there is one such agreement as well with Ateneo de Manila University, and to our knowledge, ang Kalinga State University as well. Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.

asr-001256
01:21:56.220 --> 01:21:58.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: For partnerships regarding scholarships.

asr-001257
01:21:58.720 --> 01:22:06.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, as of now, there are 230 active partnerships with the DND.

asr-001258
01:22:07.180 --> 01:22:09.460
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: For research and development, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.

asr-001259
01:22:14.820 --> 01:22:24.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: We're just, the department is trying to find the data, but we will furnish a copy to our distinguished colleague regarding the R&D.

asr-001260
01:22:24.680 --> 01:22:28.060
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. Iintay na lang din po natin yung ulat.

asr-001261
01:22:28.720 --> 01:22:47.020
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Sana po hindi rin po mawala yung content at cover letter lang din yung mabigay sa listahan po ng mga paaralan na meron pong partnerships ang UP and DND, whether that be scholarships or research and development, at yung mga kopya rin po ng mga agreements na ito.

asr-001262
01:22:47.080 --> 01:22:48.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Would that be possible, Mr. Speaker? Good sponsor.

asr-001263
01:22:49.140 --> 01:22:50.860
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, the department will comply, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001264
01:22:50.860 --> 01:22:58.560
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Thank you. May I ask then, do these agreements require personnel to show up on campus?

asr-001265
01:22:58.720 --> 01:23:05.360
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Kung scholarship po ba, oo. Is that the case? How about for research and development?

asr-001266
01:23:24.160 --> 01:23:28.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: That would depend on the particular project, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001267
01:23:28.720 --> 01:23:33.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Whether or not military personnel would be asked to attend.

asr-001268
01:23:34.480 --> 01:23:49.760
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Okay. Kaya kung maaari din po ay ma-flag din po yun doon sa magiging report na magagawa kung alin po doon ang may pangailangan ng continuous or kung hindi man yun regular na presence in campuses.

asr-001269
01:23:49.760 --> 01:23:55.550
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Because we'd like to flag an incident, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor,

asr-001270
01:23:55.550 --> 01:24:01.910
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: an incident involving the Philippine Air Force and student activists

asr-001271
01:24:01.910 --> 01:24:04.480
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of UST, which led to the continuous harassment and red-tagging of student leaders.

asr-001272
01:24:04.480 --> 01:24:16.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Not surprising, Professor Marlion Villarin, which I've brought up earlier when we interpolated the budget of the National Security Council,

asr-001273
01:24:17.260 --> 01:24:21.440
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: as he wrote an article in the NSC Journal on terror grooming.

asr-001274
01:24:22.080 --> 01:24:27.560
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: He issued misogynist and red-tagging statements against student activist Raven Rosales,

asr-001275
01:24:27.560 --> 01:24:42.120
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: who the Secretary of the Department, Chodoro, may be familiar with because in an interview, he himself discredited Ms. Rosales' advocacy.

asr-001276
01:24:43.740 --> 01:24:52.340
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, if I may just quote ang nasabi po ng ating Department Secretary tungkol po doon,

asr-001277
01:24:52.340 --> 01:24:56.300
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ay sinabi po niya na nambabastos lang siya.

asr-001278
01:24:57.060 --> 01:24:57.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At nalaman natin,

asr-001279
01:24:57.560 --> 01:25:01.960
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: walong taon, first-year college daw ang estudyante, palipat-lipat,

asr-001280
01:25:02.460 --> 01:25:06.820
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: which Ms. Rosales has already rebutted publicly.

asr-001281
01:25:07.780 --> 01:25:14.940
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: But we'd like to put forward po that it does not fail to catch our attention, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor,

asr-001282
01:25:15.520 --> 01:25:25.280
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: that an individual like Professor Marlion Villarin has continuously harassed the student leader publicly

asr-001283
01:25:25.280 --> 01:25:25.640
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and,

asr-001284
01:25:25.640 --> 01:25:26.740
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and,

asr-001285
01:25:27.560 --> 01:25:38.200
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: was emboldened by this statement to file a disciplinary case against Ms. Rosales for protesting the presence of military personnel in the university

asr-001286
01:25:38.200 --> 01:25:43.360
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: as their exercise of academic freedom, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.

asr-001287
01:25:43.820 --> 01:25:49.860
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Siguro ang tanong ko na lang po, can the Department and good sponsor shed some light on this incident?

asr-001288
01:25:49.860 --> 01:25:57.160
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And if this is, in fact, an appropriate behavior of a Department Secretary to a scholar,

asr-001289
01:25:57.560 --> 01:26:06.640
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: a student na gusto po natin na hindi na pipigilan sa iba't-ibang mga paraan ng pag-ehersisyo niya ng karapatan, kalayaan,

asr-001290
01:26:06.640 --> 01:26:14.740
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and instead, you know, engaged in, you know, debate and not demeaning behavior.

asr-001296
01:26:45.140 --> 01:26:46.290
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker,

asr-001297
01:26:48.570 --> 01:26:59.640
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The statement of the Secretary of National Defense came from, was resulted from him seeing

asr-001302
01:26:59.640 --> 01:27:00.550
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the footage of

asr-001303
01:27:00.550 --> 01:27:02.990
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Philippine Air Force personnel

asr-001304
01:27:02.990 --> 01:27:04.870
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: being harassed.

asr-001305
01:27:04.870 --> 01:27:05.360
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So,

asr-001306
01:27:05.360 --> 01:27:06.680
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: that is the

asr-001307
01:27:06.680 --> 01:27:09.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: basis

asr-001308
01:27:09.460 --> 01:27:11.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: for the statement that he made.

asr-001309
01:27:11.800 --> 01:27:12.240
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker.

asr-001310
01:27:12.880 --> 01:27:15.640
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor. At the end

asr-001311
01:27:15.640 --> 01:27:16.260
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of the day,

asr-001312
01:27:17.480 --> 01:27:19.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang militansyang

asr-001313
01:27:19.720 --> 01:27:22.000
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: pag-assert ng paniniwala

asr-001314
01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:23.260
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ni Raven Reselis

asr-001315
01:27:23.260 --> 01:27:25.600
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: to my belief, hindi rin po

asr-001316
01:27:25.600 --> 01:27:27.500
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: nakawarant ng ganong klaseng mga

asr-001317
01:27:27.500 --> 01:27:29.520
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: salita na binitawan

asr-001318
01:27:29.520 --> 01:27:31.340
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: sana ng isang department secretary

asr-001319
01:27:31.340 --> 01:27:32.460
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: against a student.

asr-001320
01:27:33.260 --> 01:27:35.640
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Nonetheless, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, we note

asr-001321
01:27:35.640 --> 01:27:37.360
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: the continuing pattern

asr-001322
01:27:37.360 --> 01:27:39.260
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of heightened military

asr-001323
01:27:39.260 --> 01:27:41.280
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: presence in campuses

asr-001324
01:27:41.280 --> 01:27:43.800
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: which creates

asr-001325
01:27:43.800 --> 01:27:45.000
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: a chilling effect

asr-001326
01:27:45.000 --> 01:27:47.360
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: among students who would like

asr-001327
01:27:47.360 --> 01:27:48.420
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: to continuously

asr-001328
01:27:48.420 --> 01:27:51.080
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: exhibit their freedoms

asr-001329
01:27:51.080 --> 01:27:53.260
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of expression, of

asr-001330
01:27:53.260 --> 01:27:54.660
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: assembly, but

asr-001331
01:27:54.660 --> 01:27:55.580
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: amongst

asr-001332
01:27:55.600 --> 01:27:57.700
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: the different forms

asr-001333
01:27:57.700 --> 01:27:59.340
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of harassment and intimidation

asr-001334
01:27:59.340 --> 01:28:01.700
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: that they face in a day inside

asr-001335
01:28:01.700 --> 01:28:03.400
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: universities, which would include

asr-001336
01:28:03.400 --> 01:28:05.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: not only red-tagging by various

asr-001337
01:28:05.540 --> 01:28:07.480
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: forces, included na rin din po

asr-001338
01:28:07.480 --> 01:28:08.960
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: dito yung nakikita sa social media,

asr-001339
01:28:09.480 --> 01:28:11.520
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: and the presence of

asr-001340
01:28:11.520 --> 01:28:13.560
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: state forces, which

asr-001341
01:28:13.560 --> 01:28:15.700
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: is essentially the crystallization

asr-001342
01:28:15.700 --> 01:28:16.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: of

asr-001343
01:28:16.720 --> 01:28:19.640
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: force, actual force

asr-001344
01:28:19.640 --> 01:28:21.620
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na pwedeng ma-implement sa isang

asr-001345
01:28:21.620 --> 01:28:23.040
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: tao, sa isang komunidad.

asr-001346
01:28:23.620 --> 01:28:25.320
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: That creates an

asr-001347
01:28:25.320 --> 01:28:26.940
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: atmosphere of fear, which

asr-001348
01:28:26.940 --> 01:28:29.100
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Ms. Ravis Rosales and other activists

asr-001349
01:28:29.100 --> 01:28:30.900
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: are just pushing back against.

asr-001350
01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:33.500
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Mr. Speaker, good sponsor,

asr-001351
01:28:33.840 --> 01:28:35.200
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: this is just a manifestation

asr-001352
01:28:35.200 --> 01:28:37.240
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: kung paano tuloy-tuloy

asr-001353
01:28:37.240 --> 01:28:39.520
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: na in the

asr-001354
01:28:39.520 --> 01:28:40.420
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: heightened

asr-001355
01:28:40.420 --> 01:28:43.600
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: atmosphere of campus militarization,

asr-001356
01:28:44.240 --> 01:28:45.020
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: nawawala po

asr-001357
01:28:45.020 --> 01:28:47.240
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang kakayahan ng mga

asr-001358
01:28:47.240 --> 01:28:49.220
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ibang-ibang kabataan na

asr-001359
01:28:49.220 --> 01:28:51.080
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: tuloy-tuloy na panghawakan

asr-001360
01:28:51.080 --> 01:28:53.720
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: yung mga ganitong karapatan at kalayaan nila.

asr-001361
01:28:54.280 --> 01:28:55.300
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Nonetheless, Mr. Speaker,

asr-001362
01:28:55.320 --> 01:28:55.980
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: good sponsor,

asr-001363
01:28:56.720 --> 01:28:57.920
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: for now,

asr-001364
01:28:59.320 --> 01:29:01.380
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: we would like to wait for the different

asr-001365
01:29:01.380 --> 01:29:03.480
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: requests that this

asr-001366
01:29:03.480 --> 01:29:05.900
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: representation put forth.

asr-001367
01:29:06.420 --> 01:29:07.240
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: At sa dulo po nito,

asr-001368
01:29:07.700 --> 01:29:09.220
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: gusto natin na

asr-001369
01:29:09.220 --> 01:29:11.180
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ang mga ating

asr-001370
01:29:11.180 --> 01:29:13.200
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: higher educational institutions and even

asr-001371
01:29:13.200 --> 01:29:15.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: schools, zones of peace sila.

asr-001372
01:29:16.300 --> 01:29:17.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: And as according

asr-001373
01:29:17.540 --> 01:29:18.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: to international

asr-001374
01:29:18.540 --> 01:29:20.980
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: agreements,

asr-001375
01:29:21.460 --> 01:29:23.420
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: it is not a place

asr-001376
01:29:23.420 --> 01:29:25.200
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: for the military to serve as security

asr-001377
01:29:25.320 --> 01:29:27.040
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: forces therein. But

asr-001378
01:29:27.040 --> 01:29:29.540
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: sa pinakamaari

asr-001379
01:29:29.540 --> 01:29:31.620
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: ay hindi military and police

asr-001380
01:29:31.620 --> 01:29:33.840
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: free ang mga espasyon na ito.

asr-001381
01:29:34.160 --> 01:29:35.660
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: That's all, Madam Speaker, good sponsor.

asr-001382
01:29:35.800 --> 01:29:37.500
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co: Thank you very much for answering

01:30:08.360 --> 01:30:14.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: May mga ilang topic po tayo, sikapin nating pagkasahin sa imitadong oras ng interpolation.

asr-001397
01:30:14.760 --> 01:30:22.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Una, meron po tayong slide tungkol sa AFP Modernization Program.

asr-001398
01:30:22.640 --> 01:30:32.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ito po yung appropriations for AFP Modernization from 2013 up to the proposed for 2027.

asr-001399
01:30:32.900 --> 01:30:38.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung 2027 proposal ay 50 billion pesos.

asr-001400
01:30:38.140 --> 01:30:50.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, kung susumahin po from 2013 to 2027, total appropriations for AFP Modernization are at

asr-001402
01:30:50.840 --> 01:30:58.960
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 469.393 billion pesos.

asr-001403
01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:06.240
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung isasama pa natin yung for 2027, then it will be 489.5 billion.

asr-001404
01:31:06.800 --> 01:31:11.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ganun po yung halaga ng AFP Modernization.

asr-001405
01:31:13.560 --> 01:31:16.880
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: For 2027, the proposed is 50 billion.

asr-001406
01:31:21.260 --> 01:31:22.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Meron pa po bang...

asr-001407
01:31:22.640 --> 01:31:28.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Para sa DND, ito ba ay sapat na or may hinihingi pa silang dagdag?

asr-001408
01:31:29.920 --> 01:31:34.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Hindi po sapat ang 50 billion, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001409
01:31:34.960 --> 01:31:41.680
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: As a matter of fact, ang kailangan po talaga for the AFP Modernization Program for Fiscal

asr-001410
01:31:41.680 --> 01:31:46.980
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Year 2027 is 126.96 billion.

asr-001411
01:31:47.840 --> 01:31:51.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Kung pwede po ako magbigay ng detalye.

asr-001412
01:31:51.120 --> 01:31:57.280
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: For Horizon 2 and Horizon 3 projects with existing multi-year contracts pa lang,

asr-001465
01:31:57.280 --> 01:32:07.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: plus yung additional MCAs na kailangan nating i-service for 2027, 35 billion na po yung kailangan natin.

asr-001466
01:32:07.080 --> 01:32:13.630
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So nakain na po yung 35 out of the 50 billion na i-allocate for the

asr-001479
01:32:13.630 --> 01:32:17.270
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: modernization program.

asr-001480
01:32:17.270 --> 01:32:19.480
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Plus, yung existing multi-year contracts

asr-001481
01:32:19.500 --> 01:32:22.820
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: due ng 2026 under the GAAA,

asr-001482
01:32:24.280 --> 01:32:27.480
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: 21.2 billion na po yun.

asr-001483
01:32:27.640 --> 01:32:29.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, kung tinatotal nyo po,

asr-001484
01:32:29.780 --> 01:32:32.280
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: 35 plus 21, 56 billion actually,

asr-001485
01:32:33.160 --> 01:32:35.560
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: kulang pa po tayo sa pagsaservice pa lang

asr-001486
01:32:35.560 --> 01:32:39.500
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ng multi-year contracts under the AFP modernization program.

asr-001487
01:32:40.100 --> 01:32:41.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay, noted po.

asr-001488
01:32:41.860 --> 01:32:44.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: My concern in raising this is,

asr-001489
01:32:45.460 --> 01:32:46.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: first of all, transparency.

asr-001490
01:32:47.440 --> 01:32:50.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Or, actually, the lack of public transparency

asr-001491
01:32:50.840 --> 01:32:54.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in the use of AFP modernization funds.

asr-001492
01:32:54.000 --> 01:32:57.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, mahigit kumulang kalahating trilyon

asr-001493
01:32:57.140 --> 01:33:02.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang na-appropriate over more than a decade

asr-001494
01:33:02.740 --> 01:33:04.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: of the AFP modernization program.

asr-001495
01:33:05.500 --> 01:33:08.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pero, wala pong publicly available

asr-001496
01:33:08.600 --> 01:33:11.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: kung sa website, halimbawa,

asr-001497
01:33:11.200 --> 01:33:11.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng AFP organization,

asr-001498
01:33:11.860 --> 01:33:12.320
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: or DND,

asr-001499
01:33:13.080 --> 01:33:17.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: there are no publicly available references

asr-001500
01:33:17.060 --> 01:33:18.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: on how these are used.

asr-001501
01:33:19.340 --> 01:33:20.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, yun ang unang obserbasyon natin.

asr-001502
01:33:20.920 --> 01:33:22.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung itatanong ng ordinaryong Pilipino,

asr-001503
01:33:22.980 --> 01:33:23.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: saan pa ginamit?

asr-001504
01:33:24.420 --> 01:33:28.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung kalahating trilyong piso na yan,

asr-001505
01:33:29.520 --> 01:33:30.540
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: walang madaling reference.

asr-001506
01:33:30.760 --> 01:33:33.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: In fact, the only readily available ones

asr-001507
01:33:33.700 --> 01:33:35.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: are private blogs,

asr-001508
01:33:36.120 --> 01:33:38.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: like probably some of you know,

asr-001509
01:33:38.960 --> 01:33:40.900
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung Max Defense blog.

asr-001510
01:33:40.900 --> 01:33:41.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-001511
01:33:41.860 --> 01:33:44.900
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, yun, kumukuha sila from open source.

asr-001512
01:33:45.180 --> 01:33:47.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung sabihin, mga news articles and so on.

asr-001513
01:33:48.240 --> 01:33:49.440
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Mas importante po, dapat,

asr-001514
01:33:49.600 --> 01:33:51.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: opisyal na galing sa DND.

asr-001515
01:33:51.200 --> 01:33:51.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pero, wala.

asr-001516
01:33:52.540 --> 01:33:53.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, yun yung una.

asr-001517
01:33:53.320 --> 01:33:53.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pangalawa,

asr-001518
01:33:54.820 --> 01:33:59.400
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: even in the GAA,

asr-001519
01:34:00.420 --> 01:34:04.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: there is a reporting requirement.

asr-001520
01:34:04.400 --> 01:34:06.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Very limited na nga yung reporting requirement

asr-001521
01:34:06.360 --> 01:34:10.120
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: with regard to the lump sum fund

asr-001522
01:34:10.120 --> 01:34:11.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: known as the revised AFP

asr-001523
01:34:11.320 --> 01:34:14.400
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: modernization program fund.

asr-001534
01:34:14.420 --> 01:34:17.160
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Nandito yung 50 billion, SPF sya, no?

asr-001535
01:34:17.900 --> 01:34:18.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Special provision.

asr-001536
01:34:18.760 --> 01:34:21.200
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: The AFP shall submit quarterly reports

asr-001537
01:34:21.200 --> 01:34:24.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: on its financial and physical accomplishments

asr-001538
01:34:24.640 --> 01:34:27.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: through the URS or other electronic means

asr-001539
01:34:27.640 --> 01:34:29.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: for reports, etc., etc.

asr-001540
01:34:31.920 --> 01:34:35.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Likewise, the AFP shall post said reports

asr-001541
01:34:35.260 --> 01:34:36.240
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: on its website.

asr-001542
01:34:36.840 --> 01:34:38.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung titignan po natin yung website

asr-001543
01:34:38.500 --> 01:34:41.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay very spotty po

asr-001544
01:34:41.700 --> 01:34:43.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang compliance

asr-001545
01:34:43.360 --> 01:34:45.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa reporting na ito.

asr-001546
01:34:45.940 --> 01:34:47.760
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Physical and financial reports.

asr-001547
01:34:48.720 --> 01:34:49.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Wala ka masyadong makukuha dyan.

asr-001548
01:34:50.060 --> 01:34:51.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Financial reports,

asr-001549
01:34:52.020 --> 01:34:52.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ano lang yun, yung

asr-001550
01:34:52.860 --> 01:34:54.980
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: obligation,

asr-001551
01:34:55.980 --> 01:34:59.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: disbursement, and so on.

asr-001552
01:34:59.780 --> 01:35:00.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Rates.

asr-001553
01:35:01.920 --> 01:35:03.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Accomplishment reports, asabihin lang doon.

asr-001554
01:35:04.380 --> 01:35:05.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Percentage of

asr-001555
01:35:05.560 --> 01:35:07.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: physical

asr-001556
01:35:07.100 --> 01:35:09.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: targets accomplished.

asr-001557
01:35:09.860 --> 01:35:10.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 100%.

asr-001558
01:35:10.580 --> 01:35:13.380
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ganun na yun. Tapos, certified by the

asr-001559
01:35:13.380 --> 01:35:15.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: whoever is the accountable official.

asr-001560
01:35:16.240 --> 01:35:17.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, even this

asr-001561
01:35:17.580 --> 01:35:19.340
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: limited requirement for transparency

asr-001562
01:35:19.340 --> 01:35:21.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay kulang po.

asr-001563
01:35:21.480 --> 01:35:23.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Supposedly, quarterly and posted to the internet.

asr-001564
01:35:23.820 --> 01:35:24.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung titignan natin,

asr-001565
01:35:25.580 --> 01:35:27.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: we have data until

asr-001566
01:35:27.140 --> 01:35:29.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: as far back as 2014,

asr-001567
01:35:29.400 --> 01:35:31.220
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pero kung dito na lang sa 2023,

asr-001568
01:35:31.920 --> 01:35:33.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: dapat quarterly, pero ang

asr-001569
01:35:33.180 --> 01:35:35.440
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nakapost lang, Q4.

asr-001570
01:35:36.380 --> 01:35:36.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2024,

asr-001571
01:35:37.940 --> 01:35:38.820
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Q1, Q2.

asr-001572
01:35:39.180 --> 01:35:40.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2025, Q4.

asr-001573
01:35:40.580 --> 01:35:43.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2026, Q1, Q2.

asr-001574
01:35:43.540 --> 01:35:44.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, kahit po ito,

asr-001575
01:35:45.220 --> 01:35:46.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi nagko-comply

asr-001576
01:35:46.060 --> 01:35:48.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang AFP

asr-001577
01:35:48.500 --> 01:35:49.760
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa posting.

asr-001578
01:35:51.260 --> 01:35:52.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Does the

asr-001579
01:35:52.620 --> 01:35:55.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: DND confirm na hindi kayo nakakapag-comply

asr-001580
01:35:55.420 --> 01:35:56.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa legal requirement?

asr-001581
01:36:10.580 --> 01:36:14.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: We'll address the reports

asr-001582
01:36:14.460 --> 01:36:16.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: first. The DND

asr-001583
01:36:16.460 --> 01:36:18.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: submits reports regarding the

asr-001584
01:36:18.320 --> 01:36:20.220
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: AFP modernization program to the

asr-001585
01:36:20.220 --> 01:36:21.940
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Congress, Senate,

asr-001586
01:36:22.200 --> 01:36:23.580
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and to the President. So,

asr-001587
01:36:24.180 --> 01:36:26.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: at least dun po, the DND continually

asr-001588
01:36:26.420 --> 01:36:28.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: complies with those reportorial requirements.

asr-001589
01:36:28.960 --> 01:36:30.400
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: With regards to

asr-001590
01:36:30.400 --> 01:36:32.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the quarterly reporting,

asr-001591
01:36:33.540 --> 01:36:36.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: hindi po kasi every quarter

asr-001592
01:36:36.380 --> 01:36:37.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: may mga nabibiling bagong

asr-001593
01:36:37.960 --> 01:36:40.560
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: equipment under the AFP modernization program.

asr-001594
01:36:40.580 --> 01:36:41.820
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, that would

asr-001595
01:36:41.820 --> 01:36:44.580
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: be a reason for why

asr-001596
01:36:44.580 --> 01:36:47.000
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: periodic lang po yung

asr-001597
01:36:47.000 --> 01:36:48.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: pag-publish

asr-001598
01:36:48.060 --> 01:36:50.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: dun po sa website, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001599
01:36:51.240 --> 01:36:52.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Well, as I said,

asr-001600
01:36:52.420 --> 01:36:54.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nagsasubmit sa Presidente,

asr-001601
01:36:54.700 --> 01:36:56.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa Kongreso, etc., pero malinaw na

asr-001602
01:36:56.520 --> 01:36:57.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sinasabi rito. Likewise,

asr-001603
01:36:58.520 --> 01:37:00.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the AFP shall post said reports on its

asr-001604
01:37:00.480 --> 01:37:01.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: website. Okay?

asr-001605
01:37:02.340 --> 01:37:02.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So,

asr-001606
01:37:04.060 --> 01:37:06.300
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: can we get a commitment na may

asr-001607
01:37:06.300 --> 01:37:08.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: magkakaroon ng compliance dito?

asr-001608
01:37:10.580 --> 01:37:15.720
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker,

asr-001609
01:37:17.020 --> 01:37:18.260
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: regarding this,

asr-001610
01:37:18.360 --> 01:37:20.480

01:37:22.160 --> 01:37:24.360
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: operational security requirements po kasi.

asr-001613
01:37:24.880 --> 01:37:26.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Also, some of these documents

asr-001614
01:37:26.780 --> 01:37:28.820
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: are classified. It might compromise

asr-001615
01:37:28.820 --> 01:37:30.760
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the security position of the Philippine government.

asr-001616
01:37:30.760 --> 01:37:31.360

01:37:36.880 --> 01:37:38.760
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: classified, confidential, etc.

asr-001620
01:37:39.640 --> 01:37:40.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Hindi po. These are just

asr-001621
01:37:40.580 --> 01:37:42.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: financial and physical reports.

asr-001622
01:37:43.480 --> 01:37:44.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Wala pong detalya yan.

asr-001623
01:37:45.120 --> 01:37:46.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: If you've seen one,

asr-001624
01:37:46.900 --> 01:37:48.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: if you look at it, walang detalya.

asr-001625
01:37:48.760 --> 01:37:50.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: These are just numbers

asr-001626
01:37:50.460 --> 01:37:53.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and obligation rates and so on.

asr-001627
01:37:53.760 --> 01:37:54.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Wala pong,

asr-001628
01:37:54.840 --> 01:37:56.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: you know, knee-jerk na eh,

asr-001629
01:37:56.580 --> 01:37:58.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: na classified.

asr-001630
01:37:59.640 --> 01:38:00.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yun nga ang problema natin,

asr-001631
01:38:00.900 --> 01:38:02.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the lack of transparency.

asr-001632
01:38:04.420 --> 01:38:05.020
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And regardless,

asr-001633
01:38:05.540 --> 01:38:06.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: required siya ng Kongreso.

asr-001634
01:38:06.620 --> 01:38:07.900
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, kung may concern ng,

asr-001635
01:38:08.520 --> 01:38:10.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: required siya ng batas, if I may say,

asr-001636
01:38:10.580 --> 01:38:12.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: no, if the DND

asr-001637
01:38:12.740 --> 01:38:14.240
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: has a problem with that, then,

asr-001638
01:38:15.300 --> 01:38:16.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: well, they have to

asr-001639
01:38:16.680 --> 01:38:17.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: comply nevertheless.

asr-001640
01:38:19.340 --> 01:38:20.160
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, Mr. Speaker.

asr-001641
01:38:20.460 --> 01:38:22.200
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: The department will look into

asr-001642
01:38:22.200 --> 01:38:24.540
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: how else we could be more

asr-001643
01:38:24.540 --> 01:38:26.600
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: transparent and divulge more information,

asr-001644
01:38:27.400 --> 01:38:27.840
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker.

asr-001645
01:38:28.280 --> 01:38:29.820
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. Well, yun po.

asr-001646
01:38:30.220 --> 01:38:31.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Very low

asr-001647
01:38:31.060 --> 01:38:34.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: level of transparency.

asr-001648
01:38:35.480 --> 01:38:35.900
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Therefore,

asr-001649
01:38:36.600 --> 01:38:38.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang concern natin, yung issues

asr-001650
01:38:38.280 --> 01:38:39.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng accountability,

asr-001651
01:38:39.360 --> 01:38:40.540
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: you know, especially,

asr-001652
01:38:40.580 --> 01:38:41.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: corruption.

asr-001653
01:38:41.720 --> 01:38:42.980
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung mga public works,

asr-001654
01:38:43.160 --> 01:38:44.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: projects, and contracts

asr-001655
01:38:44.480 --> 01:38:46.020
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: are under,

asr-001656
01:38:46.580 --> 01:38:48.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: you know, a lot of public scrutiny,

asr-001657
01:38:48.880 --> 01:38:49.820
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: rightly so,

asr-001658
01:38:50.540 --> 01:38:52.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: not so for defense contracts.

asr-001659
01:38:53.280 --> 01:38:54.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Partly because of this

asr-001660
01:38:54.800 --> 01:38:57.760
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: lack of transparency

asr-001661
01:38:57.760 --> 01:38:59.400
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: within the DND.

asr-001662
01:39:02.040 --> 01:39:02.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ang

asr-001663
01:39:02.860 --> 01:39:04.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pinakahuling na balita

asr-001664
01:39:04.940 --> 01:39:06.400
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: siguro sa publiko, yung

asr-001665
01:39:06.400 --> 01:39:08.020
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: controversy regarding

asr-001666
01:39:08.020 --> 01:39:10.160
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the Navy frigate procurement,

asr-001667
01:39:10.160 --> 01:39:12.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nung nakarang administration pa yun.

asr-001668
01:39:12.740 --> 01:39:12.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-001669
01:39:13.600 --> 01:39:15.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pero, again, as I said,

asr-001670
01:39:15.860 --> 01:39:17.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: generally, wala, kasi wala masyadong

asr-001671
01:39:17.800 --> 01:39:20.160
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: information. So, anyway, let me move on.

asr-001672
01:39:20.920 --> 01:39:21.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Marami pa pong topics.

asr-001673
01:39:23.780 --> 01:39:24.780

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Military and Uniform Personnel Pensions.

asr-001676
01:39:30.520 --> 01:39:31.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, again, meron tayong

asr-001677
01:39:31.640 --> 01:39:32.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: data.

asr-001678
01:39:36.100 --> 01:39:38.180

01:39:40.160 --> 01:39:41.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2027

asr-001681
01:39:41.140 --> 01:39:43.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: na pondo para sa

asr-001682
01:39:43.860 --> 01:39:45.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: MUP. Pensions.

asr-001683
01:39:47.620 --> 01:39:49.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: For 2026, it's

asr-001684
01:39:49.640 --> 01:39:51.820

asr-001685
01:39:51.820 --> 01:39:52.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: MUP ito, no?

asr-001686
01:39:53.420 --> 01:39:55.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And then, 154B

asr-001687
01:39:55.360 --> 01:39:56.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: for

asr-001688
01:39:56.520 --> 01:39:58.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2027.

asr-001689
01:39:59.820 --> 01:40:01.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung ito total natin yan,

asr-001690
01:40:02.240 --> 01:40:03.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung buo na yan, it's not there,

asr-001691
01:40:04.020 --> 01:40:06.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: but I have totaled it, 1.295

asr-001692
01:40:06.420 --> 01:40:06.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: trillion.

asr-001693
01:40:06.780 --> 01:40:09.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? In the past

asr-001694
01:40:09.000 --> 01:40:09.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: more than one decade,

asr-001695
01:40:10.160 --> 01:40:12.320
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 1.295 trillion.

asr-001696
01:40:12.940 --> 01:40:15.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, if you recall, yung

asr-001697
01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: more or less one decade

asr-001698

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng AFP modernization

asr-001699
01:40:19.000 --> 01:40:20.220
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: is

asr-001700
01:40:20.220 --> 01:40:22.060
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 469 billion.

asr-001701
01:40:22.640 --> 01:40:24.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yung sa pension, MUP,

asr-001702
01:40:24.560 --> 01:40:27.060

asr-001703
01:40:27.900 --> 01:40:27.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-001704
01:40:28.800 --> 01:40:29.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Thus, the

asr-001705
01:40:29.780 --> 01:40:32.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: matagal na pong issue to.

asr-001706
01:40:33.600 --> 01:40:33.760
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-001707
01:40:34.500 --> 01:40:36.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Unang term ko pa lang sa kongreso, way back in

asr-001708
01:40:36.720 --> 01:40:38.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2009, pinag-uusapan na yan.

asr-001709
01:40:38.700 --> 01:40:40.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And even at

asr-001710
01:40:40.160 --> 01:40:42.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the time, sabi na ng economic

asr-001711
01:40:42.280 --> 01:40:44.120
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: managers, the

asr-001712
01:40:44.120 --> 01:40:45.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pension bill

asr-001713
01:40:45.560 --> 01:40:48.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: is

asr-001714
01:40:48.260 --> 01:40:49.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: already becoming an

asr-001715
01:40:49.940 --> 01:40:51.220
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: unsustainable

asr-001716
01:40:51.220 --> 01:40:52.820
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: fiscal

asr-001717
01:40:52.820 --> 01:40:55.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: budgetary burden. No?

asr-001718
01:40:56.620 --> 01:40:58.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Sumasangayon ba ang DND

asr-001719
01:40:58.140 --> 01:41:00.340
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa ganong suri?

asr-001720
01:41:01.100 --> 01:41:02.380
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? Na talagang

asr-001721
01:41:02.380 --> 01:41:03.840
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: napakabigat na ng

asr-001722
01:41:03.840 --> 01:41:06.160
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: budgetary requirement nito para sa GAA.

asr-001723
01:41:07.680 --> 01:41:08.260
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes,

asr-001724
01:41:08.260 --> 01:41:09.160
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker,

asr-001725
01:41:10.160 --> 01:41:11.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the DND

asr-001726
01:41:11.960 --> 01:41:15.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: believes that the proposed pension

asr-001727
01:41:15.060 --> 01:41:16.160
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: reform should be studied.

asr-001728
01:41:16.900 --> 01:41:17.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Should be studied?

asr-001729
01:41:18.460 --> 01:41:19.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yeah, it needs further study.

asr-001730
01:41:20.520 --> 01:41:22.360
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: It needs further study.

asr-001731
01:41:22.800 --> 01:41:23.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: It needs further study.

asr-001732
01:41:24.960 --> 01:41:26.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: And the DND

asr-001733
01:41:26.920 --> 01:41:29.100
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: stance is that the AFP should be segregated

asr-001734
01:41:29.100 --> 01:41:30.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: from civilian

asr-001735
01:41:30.040 --> 01:41:33.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: uniform services in any burden-sharing

asr-001736
01:41:33.120 --> 01:41:35.020
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: scheme. The DND is

asr-001737
01:41:35.020 --> 01:41:37.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: open to reforming the

asr-001738
01:41:37.040 --> 01:41:38.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: current pension scheme.

asr-001739
01:41:39.480 --> 01:41:39.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So,

asr-001740
01:41:40.160 --> 01:41:42.000
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: it really, in terms of

asr-001741
01:41:42.000 --> 01:41:44.700
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the recommendations,

asr-001742
01:41:45.580 --> 01:41:46.820
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: that would really depend

asr-001743
01:41:46.820 --> 01:41:48.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: on what is arrived

asr-001744
01:41:48.300 --> 01:41:50.260
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: in terms of assessments

asr-001745
01:41:50.260 --> 01:41:52.100
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and evaluation of the system.

asr-001746
01:41:52.100 --> 01:41:54.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay, so study and so on.

asr-001747
01:41:55.820 --> 01:41:56.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Bottom line,

asr-001748
01:41:57.260 --> 01:41:58.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: maaasahan ba natin

asr-001749
01:41:58.520 --> 01:42:00.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang pension reform?

asr-001750
01:42:00.920 --> 01:42:02.320
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang pinakakailangan po dito

asr-001751
01:42:02.320 --> 01:42:04.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay magkaroon na ng contribution

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: system ang uniformed personnel.

asr-001753
01:42:06.780 --> 01:42:08.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Katulad ng sa sibil yan, parang yung

01:42:10.160 --> 01:42:11.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Sa ngayon, wala. Absolutely,

asr-001756
01:42:12.120 --> 01:42:13.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 100%

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: falsely, walang basis,

asr-001923
01:46:06.100 --> 01:46:07.500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: na yung Batanes daw

asr-001924
01:46:07.500 --> 01:46:08.940

01:47:19.740 --> 01:47:22.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: overall, sabi niya, sa kanyang

01:47:28.420 --> 01:47:32.420
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: many, and even

asr-001964
01:47:32.420 --> 01:47:34.120
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: many mainstream, hindi lang yung

asr-001965
01:47:34.120 --> 01:47:36.200
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Chinese schools, sabi niya, many mainstream

asr-001966
01:47:36.200 --> 01:47:38.320
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Philippine high

asr-001967
01:47:38.320 --> 01:47:40.460

asr-001969
01:47:42.440 --> 01:47:44.440

asr-001971

asr-001975
01:47:54.460 --> 01:47:55.820

01:48:06.740 --> 01:48:08.560

01:48:08.560 --> 01:48:12.280

asr-001982
01:48:12.280 --> 01:48:13.740

asr-001985
01:48:18.440 --> 01:48:20.380
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: happens, to state the obvious,

asr-001986
01:48:21.140 --> 01:48:22.540
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: si Ray

asr-001987
01:48:22.540 --> 01:48:23.360

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Diba? Next pa.

asr-002239
01:56:54.180 --> 01:56:56.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Next.

asr-002240
01:56:56.180 --> 01:56:58.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Yeah.

asr-002241
01:56:58.180 --> 01:57:00.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Go back. Well, okay.

asr-002242
01:57:00.180 --> 01:57:02.180

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: submitted a report.

asr-002247
01:57:10.180 --> 01:57:12.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: May sinabit po na report

asr-002248

Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: U.S. Congress

asr-002250
01:57:16.180 --> 01:57:18.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: regarding the damage, the military

asr-002251
01:57:18.180 --> 01:57:20.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: damage sustained by the U.S.

asr-002252
01:57:20.180 --> 01:57:22.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in the still ongoing war.

asr-002253
01:57:22.180 --> 01:57:24.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ano ang sabi nila?

asr-002254
01:57:24.180 --> 01:57:26.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Dito.

asr-002255
01:57:26.180 --> 01:57:28.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Sabi po sa report,

asr-002256
01:57:30.180 --> 01:57:32.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: U.S. CENTCOM

asr-002257
01:57:32.180 --> 01:57:34.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: reported that Iranian strikes

asr-002258
01:57:34.180 --> 01:57:36.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: damaged and destroyed hundreds of

asr-002259
01:57:36.180 --> 01:57:38.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: buildings and structures at

asr-002260
01:57:38.180 --> 01:57:40.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: U.S. bases in Kuwait,

asr-002261
01:57:40.180 --> 01:57:42.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Bahrain, Qatar, UAE,

asr-002262
01:57:42.180 --> 01:57:44.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Oman, and Jordan

asr-002263
01:57:44.180 --> 01:57:46.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: during the conflict.

asr-002264
01:57:46.180 --> 01:57:48.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? And,

asr-002265
01:57:48.180 --> 01:57:50.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ito naman, may table of all the

asr-002266
01:57:50.180 --> 01:57:52.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: aircraft, the military aircraft destroyed

asr-002267
01:57:52.180 --> 01:57:54.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: during the conflict

asr-002268
01:57:54.180 --> 01:57:56.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in their bases.

asr-002269
01:57:56.180 --> 01:57:58.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. And then the next slide.

asr-002270
01:57:58.180 --> 01:58:00.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: The

asr-002271
01:58:00.180 --> 01:58:02.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Secretary

asr-002272
01:58:02.180 --> 01:58:04.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: of the Navy,

asr-002273
01:58:04.180 --> 01:58:06.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Hung Cao, yun ang pangalan niya,

asr-002274
01:58:06.180 --> 01:58:08.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Vietnamese-American,

asr-002275
01:58:08.180 --> 01:58:10.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: he candidly admitted

asr-002276
01:58:10.180 --> 01:58:12.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: to media, sabi niya, Iran

asr-002277
01:58:12.180 --> 01:58:14.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: blew the hell out of our base in

asr-002278
01:58:14.180 --> 01:58:16.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Bahrain. So siya mismo

asr-002279
01:58:16.180 --> 01:58:18.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nagsabi, pinasabog ng Iran

asr-002280
01:58:18.180 --> 01:58:20.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung naval base

asr-002281
01:58:20.180 --> 01:58:22.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng U.S. sa Bahrain,

asr-002282
01:58:22.180 --> 01:58:24.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: which happens to be the

asr-002283
01:58:24.180 --> 01:58:26.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: headquarters of the Navy

asr-002284
01:58:26.180 --> 01:58:28.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in that area, CENTCOM,

asr-002285
01:58:28.180 --> 01:58:30.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 5th Fleet. No? So kaya po,

asr-002286
01:58:30.180 --> 01:58:32.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: nawala lang sila ng base

asr-002287
01:58:32.180 --> 01:58:34.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa

asr-002288
01:58:34.180 --> 01:58:36.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: area na yon,

asr-002289
01:58:36.180 --> 01:58:38.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng gitnang silangan,

asr-002290
01:58:38.180 --> 01:58:40.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and they now have to resupply

asr-002291
01:58:40.180 --> 01:58:42.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: all the way as far away as

asr-002292
01:58:42.180 --> 01:58:44.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Diego Garcia. Kaya namumroblema po sila.

asr-002293
01:58:44.180 --> 01:58:46.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay. So ang point, anong point

asr-002294
01:58:46.180 --> 01:58:48.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: dito?

asr-002295
01:58:48.180 --> 01:58:50.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, ang point

asr-002296
01:58:50.180 --> 01:58:52.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: dito, pag nagkaroon ng

asr-002297
01:58:52.180 --> 01:58:54.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: gera, ang U.S.,

asr-002298
01:58:54.180 --> 01:58:56.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa kalaban niya,

asr-002299
01:58:56.180 --> 01:58:58.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: magiging target

asr-002300
01:58:58.180 --> 01:59:00.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung mga

asr-002301
01:59:00.180 --> 01:59:02.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: host countries

asr-002302
01:59:02.180 --> 01:59:04.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: na nag-host ng

asr-002303
01:59:04.180 --> 01:59:06.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: economic infrastructure

asr-002304
01:59:06.180 --> 01:59:08.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: as well as military

asr-002305
01:59:08.180 --> 01:59:10.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: bases ng U.S.

asr-002306
01:59:10.180 --> 01:59:12.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So that is no long

asr-002307
01:59:12.180 --> 01:59:14.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: or hypothetical. It is

asr-002308
01:59:14.180 --> 01:59:16.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: what happened. No? So kaya po,

asr-002309
01:59:16.180 --> 01:59:18.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang tanong ngayon, what about

asr-002310
01:59:18.180 --> 01:59:20.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Pilipinas?

asr-002311
01:59:20.180 --> 01:59:22.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? Ang Marcos Jr. Administration,

asr-002312
01:59:22.180 --> 01:59:24.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: katulad ng sinabi natin,

asr-002313
01:59:24.180 --> 01:59:26.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: talagang todong

asr-002314
01:59:26.180 --> 01:59:28.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pinalawak ang footprint

asr-002315
01:59:28.180 --> 01:59:30.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng U.S. militarily.

asr-002316
01:59:30.180 --> 01:59:32.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So with the EDCA sites

asr-002317
01:59:32.180 --> 01:59:34.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: as well as the non-EDCA sites.

asr-002318
01:59:34.180 --> 01:59:36.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Subic, for example.

asr-002319
01:59:36.180 --> 01:59:38.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Tapos meron pa ngayong

asr-002320
01:59:38.180 --> 01:59:40.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Paxilica. Mag-i-invest

asr-002321
01:59:40.180 --> 01:59:42.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pa raw yung

asr-002322
01:59:42.180 --> 01:59:44.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Subic, yung ating

asr-002323
01:59:44.180 --> 01:59:46.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Luzon Economic Corridor.

asr-002324
01:59:46.180 --> 01:59:48.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So that would be Subic, Clark,

asr-002325
01:59:48.180 --> 01:59:50.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Batangas, Laguna.

asr-002326
01:59:50.180 --> 01:59:52.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: The industrial heart

asr-002327
01:59:52.180 --> 01:59:54.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: of the Philippine economy ay

asr-002328
01:59:54.180 --> 01:59:56.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ibibigay daw sa Paxilica.

asr-002329
01:59:56.180 --> 01:59:58.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No? So,

asr-002330
02:00:00.000 --> 02:00:09.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang tanong dito ngayon, and this is a question that pertains to the primary mandate of the Department of National Defense and the AFP,

asr-002331
02:00:10.940 --> 02:00:18.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: paano didepensahan ang mga ito kung magkaroon ng gera sa pagitan ng US at Pilipinas?

asr-002332
02:00:19.400 --> 02:00:23.440
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Napakita sa Gulf na wasak yan.

asr-002333
02:00:24.500 --> 02:00:27.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Let me, another, one last.

asr-002334
02:00:27.460 --> 02:00:31.920
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Sorry, before you continue, I would like to request the gentleman to wrap up, please.

asr-002335
02:00:31.920 --> 02:00:33.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Opo, we're wrapping up.

asr-002336
02:00:34.500 --> 02:00:37.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: A few other points.

asr-002337
02:00:39.240 --> 02:00:41.200
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, napakita natin.

asr-002338
02:00:42.820 --> 02:00:44.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: One last slide.

asr-002339
02:00:46.080 --> 02:00:49.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Even, so mukhang, dalawa actually.

asr-002340
02:00:50.920 --> 02:00:52.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: One is tidal wave.

asr-002341
02:00:53.160 --> 02:00:54.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Tidal wave.

asr-002342
02:00:55.200 --> 02:00:55.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay.

asr-002343
02:00:55.480 --> 02:00:55.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay.

asr-002344
02:00:55.600 --> 02:00:57.880
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: What is tidal wave?

asr-002345
02:00:57.980 --> 02:01:06.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Tidal wave was a recent major report issued by Heritage, the Washington think tank, the renowned Washington think tank.

asr-002346
02:01:07.660 --> 02:01:10.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Tungkol ito, 400 pages ito.

asr-002347
02:01:10.580 --> 02:01:17.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: This is a study on logistics, China, logistics of China and the US in time of war.

asr-002348
02:01:18.480 --> 02:01:24.320
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung magkaroon daw ng gera, ano mangyayari sa, ano maging risulta from the point of view of logistics?

asr-002349
02:01:24.320 --> 02:01:25.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ano ang sabi?

asr-002350
02:01:25.600 --> 02:01:26.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Dito.

asr-002351
02:01:27.020 --> 02:01:39.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ang sabi dito ay, sabi ng Heritage Foundation, hindi daw tatagal ng isang linggo ang ammunition supplies ng US in an all-out war with China.

asr-002352
02:01:40.180 --> 02:01:40.820
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: One week.

asr-002353
02:01:41.660 --> 02:01:50.960
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And then, hindi tatagal daw ng isang buwan ang kanilang fuel supply in a war with China.

asr-002354
02:01:51.280 --> 02:01:55.160
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: This was issued by Heritage, as you can see, in January.

asr-002355
02:01:55.600 --> 02:01:57.040
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: 2026.

asr-002356
02:02:01.020 --> 02:02:02.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Before the Iran War.

asr-002357
02:02:03.440 --> 02:02:06.120
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So ngayon, mas kinumpirman ng realidad.

asr-002358
02:02:06.860 --> 02:02:16.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung Iran pa lang ang kalaban, medyo naubusan na ng bala at hirap na ng logistics ang US.

asr-002359
02:02:16.800 --> 02:02:19.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Paano pa ngayon sa China?

asr-002360
02:02:19.100 --> 02:02:25.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And then the final study that I would like to present here is one issued by...

asr-002361
02:02:25.600 --> 02:02:28.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: by the Washington think tank, again, Defense Priorities.

asr-002362
02:02:29.660 --> 02:02:37.200
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Itong think tank na ito is funded by the American billionaire Koch, the Koch brothers.

asr-002363
02:02:38.100 --> 02:02:40.020
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: These are right-wing billionaires.

asr-002364
02:02:40.280 --> 02:02:41.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Mas right-wing pa kay Trump.

asr-002365
02:02:42.600 --> 02:02:43.980
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ano ang nilabas nila recently?

asr-002366
02:02:44.200 --> 02:02:50.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Just this September 10, they are proposing a second island chain strategy for Asia.

asr-002367
02:02:51.720 --> 02:02:51.860
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-002368
02:02:51.860 --> 02:02:55.300
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: What do they mean by a second island chain strategy?

asr-002369
02:02:55.600 --> 02:02:56.020
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: For Asia?

asr-002370
02:02:56.620 --> 02:03:05.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Sabi po dito, this is a strategy that shifts US military commitments and presence

asr-002371
02:03:05.600 --> 02:03:12.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: from the vulnerable first island chain toward a more defensible second island chain,

asr-002372
02:03:12.520 --> 02:03:18.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: which would reduce US military requirements and the risk of a war with China

asr-002373
02:03:18.100 --> 02:03:20.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: while still protecting US interests.

asr-002374
02:03:21.480 --> 02:03:25.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And then second, the United States should narrow its defense commitments

asr-002375
02:03:25.600 --> 02:03:31.220
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: in the region, shifting to a clear non-intervention position on Taiwan,

asr-002376
02:03:32.020 --> 02:03:37.960
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ending mutual defense alliances with South Korea, Australia, the Philippines, and Japan,

asr-002377
02:03:38.840 --> 02:03:43.520
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and negotiating narrow and flexible security partnerships in their place.

asr-002378
02:03:44.380 --> 02:03:47.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: US military posture should change accordingly.

asr-002379
02:03:48.480 --> 02:03:49.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, yan na po ang posisyon.

asr-002380
02:03:49.560 --> 02:03:55.260
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kung baga, may pagtanggap na in certain circles in Washington,

asr-002381
02:03:55.600 --> 02:03:57.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the most conservative circles,

asr-002382
02:03:57.520 --> 02:04:00.800
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sabi nila, di na kayang depensahan ng US

asr-002383
02:04:00.800 --> 02:04:04.960
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang first island chain, atras tayo sa second island chain.

asr-002384
02:04:05.620 --> 02:04:07.740
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ibig sabihin nun, as far back as Guam.

asr-002385
02:04:08.600 --> 02:04:08.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: No?

asr-002386
02:04:10.140 --> 02:04:17.340
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: At sabi nga, huwag na, let us leave behind the mutual defense treaties

asr-002387
02:04:17.340 --> 02:04:21.540
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: because hindi na raw kayang ng US ang commitment na to.

asr-002388
02:04:21.540 --> 02:04:25.340
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: So, in favor of more to them,

asr-002389
02:04:25.600 --> 02:04:26.220
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: flexible arrangements.

asr-002390
02:04:26.420 --> 02:04:30.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Ito, hindi mga kaliwa ang nagpo-propose nito,

asr-002391
02:04:30.740 --> 02:04:32.960
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung mga pinakakanan sa US.

asr-002392
02:04:33.620 --> 02:04:36.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Now, my final point and question is,

asr-002393
02:04:36.800 --> 02:04:40.480
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: May may request sa gentleman to wrap up in the last 30 seconds, please.

asr-002394
02:04:40.500 --> 02:04:42.360
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Okay, sa ganitong realidad ngayon,

asr-002395
02:04:43.040 --> 02:04:48.200
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: tama po ba na patuloy na panindigan pa rin

asr-002396
02:04:48.200 --> 02:04:50.280
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ng Marcos Jr. Administration

asr-002397
02:04:50.280 --> 02:04:54.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: at ng Department of National Defense

asr-002398
02:04:54.080 --> 02:04:55.300
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ang kanilang,

asr-002399
02:04:55.600 --> 02:04:59.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: patuloy na pagkapit

asr-002400
02:04:59.460 --> 02:05:03.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa Mutual Defense Treaty with the US,

asr-002401
02:05:04.220 --> 02:05:07.180
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: given that events have shown

asr-002402
02:05:07.180 --> 02:05:11.440
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: that such a close alliance with the US

asr-002403
02:05:11.440 --> 02:05:15.480
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: would mean putting our economic infrastructure at risk

asr-002404
02:05:15.480 --> 02:05:16.460
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: and also,

asr-002405
02:05:17.280 --> 02:05:19.620
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: would also mean that

asr-002406
02:05:19.620 --> 02:05:24.000
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: the US may not be willing or able

asr-002407
02:05:24.000 --> 02:05:25.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: to,

asr-002408
02:05:25.600 --> 02:05:26.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ah,

asr-002409
02:05:26.600 --> 02:05:28.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: live up to its defense commitments.

asr-002410
02:05:28.700 --> 02:05:30.300
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Hindi niya kayang ipagtanggol.

asr-002411
02:05:30.300 --> 02:05:32.300
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Katulad ng nangyari sa Middle East,

asr-002412
02:05:32.300 --> 02:05:33.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi pinagtagol.

asr-002413
02:05:33.720 --> 02:05:34.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: And therefore,

asr-002414
02:05:34.940 --> 02:05:39.660
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa halip na patuloy na magpahipit ng relasyon sa US,

asr-002415
02:05:39.660 --> 02:05:43.240
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ay tumindig tayo, no?

asr-002416
02:05:43.240 --> 02:05:44.680
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Labanan natin ng China,

asr-002417
02:05:44.680 --> 02:05:47.720
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pero pangunahing umaasa sa sarili nating lakas

asr-002418
02:05:47.720 --> 02:05:49.140
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: at makipagtulungan,

asr-002419
02:05:49.140 --> 02:05:50.540
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: hindi sa US,

asr-002420
02:05:50.540 --> 02:05:53.920
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: kung hindi sa mga kapitbahay natin, halimbawa,

asr-002421
02:05:53.920 --> 02:05:54.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: ASEAN,

asr-002422
02:05:54.940 --> 02:05:55.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Malaysia,

asr-002423
02:05:55.940 --> 02:05:56.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Indonesia,

asr-002424
02:05:56.940 --> 02:05:57.940
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Vietnam,

asr-002425
02:05:57.940 --> 02:05:59.600
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: at iba pa.

asr-002426
02:05:59.600 --> 02:06:01.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: May I get a,

asr-002427
02:06:01.080 --> 02:06:04.080
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: at least a final response from the sponsor?

asr-002428
02:06:04.080 --> 02:06:06.700
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Kine-question na po natin, basically,

asr-002429
02:06:06.700 --> 02:06:08.100
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: yung, ah,

asr-002430
02:06:08.100 --> 02:06:12.580
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: pagkapit ng Marcos Jr. administration

asr-002431
02:06:12.580 --> 02:06:16.780
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: sa Mutual Defense Treaty at sa mga kano?

asr-002432
02:06:16.780 --> 02:06:17.640
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Opo.

asr-002433
02:06:17.640 --> 02:06:19.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, ah, Mr. Speaker,

asr-002434
02:06:19.040 --> 02:06:21.740
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the Department takes note of the concerns

asr-002435
02:06:21.740 --> 02:06:24.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and the issues raised by our distinguished colleague,

asr-002437
02:06:25.240 --> 02:06:28.740
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ah, this is precisely the reason why we have to support

asr-002438
02:06:28.740 --> 02:06:31.160
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ah, the AFP modernization program

asr-002439
02:06:31.160 --> 02:06:34.840
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and the Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense Concept.

asr-002440
02:06:34.840 --> 02:06:36.400
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: This is what we want to do.

asr-002441
02:06:36.400 --> 02:06:40.560
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: We want to make sure that we protect our territory.

asr-002442
02:06:40.560 --> 02:06:41.560
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Thank you.

asr-002443
02:06:41.560 --> 02:06:42.560
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio: Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker.

asr-002444
02:06:42.560 --> 02:06:43.560
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Thank you.

asr-002445
02:06:43.560 --> 02:06:44.740
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Thank you, sir.

asr-002446
02:06:44.740 --> 02:06:45.740
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Majority Leader.

asr-002447
02:06:45.740 --> 02:06:49.040
Rep. Arnan C. Panaligan: Mr. Speaker, I move that you recognize the honorable

asr-002448
02:06:49.040 --> 02:06:52.900
Rep. Arnan C. Panaligan: Sergio C. Dagooc of Party-list APEC for his interpellation.

asr-002449
02:06:52.920 --> 02:06:54.920
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: The gentleman from Partylist APEC,

asr-002451
02:06:54.920 --> 02:06:56.900
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: Representative Sergio Dagooc,

asr-002452
02:06:56.900 --> 02:06:58.900
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano: is recognized.

asr-002453
02:06:58.900 --> 02:07:01.600
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

asr-002454
02:07:01.600 --> 02:07:02.800
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Thank you, Majority Leader.

asr-002455
02:07:02.800 --> 02:07:05.800
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Magandang umaga po sa ating lahat.

asr-002456
02:07:05.800 --> 02:07:07.000
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Maiksi lang po.

asr-002457
02:07:07.000 --> 02:07:08.040
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ah,

asr-002458
02:07:08.040 --> 02:07:10.300
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: naubos na yung mga tanong ko eh.

asr-002459
02:07:10.300 --> 02:07:11.400
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Tinanong na ni,

asr-002460
02:07:11.400 --> 02:07:14.240
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ng kasabahan ko eh.

asr-002461
02:07:14.240 --> 02:07:14.900
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ah,

asr-002462
02:07:14.900 --> 02:07:17.500
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Distinguished Sponsor,

asr-002463
02:07:17.500 --> 02:07:19.300
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Mr. Speaker,

asr-002464
02:07:19.300 --> 02:07:21.840
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ang number one issue,

asr-002465
02:07:21.840 --> 02:07:24.440
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ah, correct me if I'm wrong, no,

asr-002466
02:07:24.440 --> 02:07:27.280
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ito yung nabasa ko.

asr-002467
02:07:27.280 --> 02:07:33.640
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: May performance report tayo sa Land Forces Defense Program, no.

asr-002468
02:07:33.640 --> 02:07:38.400
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: The performance report shows that the Philippine Army

asr-002469
02:07:38.400 --> 02:07:43.840
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: achieved only 64 percent of its 81 percent target

asr-002470
02:07:43.840 --> 02:07:48.800
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: for tactical units in prescribed readiness condition,

asr-002471
02:07:48.800 --> 02:07:54.080
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: and only 28 percent of its 79 percent target

asr-002472
02:07:54.080 --> 02:07:59.580
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: for ready reserve units in prescribed readiness condition.

asr-002473
02:07:59.580 --> 02:08:02.840
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: The SEAD report states that

asr-002474
02:08:02.840 --> 02:08:10.680
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: the shortfall was partly due to the rebump of the Philippine Army readiness rating system

asr-002475
02:08:10.680 --> 02:08:17.380
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: aimed at determining and resolving the capability shortfalls of existing tactical units.

asr-002476
02:08:17.380 --> 02:08:20.620
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: So, the question, Distinguished Sponsor,

asr-002477
02:08:20.620 --> 02:08:21.940
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: ah, is this.

asr-002478
02:08:21.940 --> 02:08:23.920
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: If the readiness rating system is not suitable,

asr-002480
02:08:23.980 --> 02:08:26.740
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: if the readiness rating system was changed in a way

asr-002481
02:08:26.740 --> 02:08:30.420
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: that lowered the reported accomplishment,

asr-002482
02:08:30.420 --> 02:08:35.440
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: how can we be sure that the Army's actual fighting capability

asr-002483
02:08:35.440 --> 02:08:41.120
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: has not been overstated in the previous years?

asr-002484
02:08:41.120 --> 02:08:52.440
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Importante to sakin, dami kong mga kamag-anak dyan eh.

asr-002485
02:08:52.440 --> 02:08:53.820
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker, ah,

asr-002486
02:08:53.820 --> 02:08:55.520
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the reason that, ah,

asr-002487
02:08:55.520 --> 02:08:58.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: there has to be adjustments with standards,

asr-002488
02:08:58.660 --> 02:09:03.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ah, particularly because, ah, threats are also evolving.

asr-002489
02:09:03.320 --> 02:09:05.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So that is the reason why, ah,

asr-002490
02:09:05.420 --> 02:09:06.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: besides that, ah,

asr-002491
02:09:06.880 --> 02:09:12.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the scope of the mission areas also, ah, change.

asr-002492
02:09:12.420 --> 02:09:16.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So that is the reason for the higher, ah,

asr-002493
02:09:16.120 --> 02:09:19.220
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: well, higher standards, really like the different standards.

asr-002494
02:09:19.220 --> 02:09:22.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Ah, but there is an assurance that, ah,

asr-002495
02:09:22.420 --> 02:09:23.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: hindi naman po na-overstate.

asr-002496
02:09:23.660 --> 02:09:29.860
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yung mga, ah, mga performance, ah, indicators from previous years.

asr-002497
02:09:29.860 --> 02:09:33.920
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: It's more of ngayon lang po talaga kailangan i-adjust yung standards,

asr-002498
02:09:33.920 --> 02:09:36.960
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: ah, given nag-iiba po talaga yung mga threats

asr-002499
02:09:36.960 --> 02:09:41.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and nag-iiba rin po yung scope of, ah, mission areas.

asr-002500
02:09:41.120 --> 02:09:42.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker.

asr-002501
02:09:42.660 --> 02:09:45.320
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ah, naintindihan ko po, no?

asr-002502
02:09:45.320 --> 02:09:53.500
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Ah, however, is there, ah, concrete steps that the Department has taken

asr-002503
02:09:53.500 --> 02:09:59.860
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: to ensure that this revamp will actually improve unit readiness

asr-002504
02:09:59.860 --> 02:10:05.500
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: and not simply change the way readiness is measured on paper?

asr-002505
02:10:13.500 --> 02:10:15.500
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Talagang totohanan po ito.

asr-002518
02:10:50.310 --> 02:10:52.670
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Ah, Mr. Speaker,

asr-002519
02:10:52.670 --> 02:10:54.140
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: This is a continuing process.

asr-002520
02:10:55.300 --> 02:10:56.620
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: May rescoping po talaga

asr-002521
02:10:56.620 --> 02:10:57.120
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: and rescaling.

asr-002522
02:10:59.500 --> 02:11:00.100
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: But

asr-002523
02:11:00.100 --> 02:11:02.620
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the idea is that

asr-002524
02:11:02.620 --> 02:11:04.720
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: we always upgrade.

asr-002525
02:11:05.300 --> 02:11:06.600
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: We adjust based

asr-002526
02:11:06.600 --> 02:11:08.580
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: on the current threats and also we have to

asr-002527
02:11:08.580 --> 02:11:10.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: meet those targets and those standards

asr-002528
02:11:10.320 --> 02:11:10.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: that we set.

asr-002529
02:11:13.780 --> 02:11:14.920
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Lastly na lang,

asr-002530
02:11:15.200 --> 02:11:18.340
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: if the readiness rating

asr-002531
02:11:18.340 --> 02:11:19.780
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: revamp was intended,

asr-002532
02:11:20.660 --> 02:11:22.320
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague,

asr-002533
02:11:22.340 --> 02:11:24.420
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: to determine unresolved

asr-002534
02:11:24.420 --> 02:11:25.900
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: capability shortfalls,

asr-002535
02:11:26.940 --> 02:11:28.420

02:11:48.640 --> 02:11:50.180
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Bakit po ganun ka ano?

asr-002546
02:11:51.560 --> 02:11:52.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Mr. Speaker,

asr-002547
02:11:52.340 --> 02:11:53.620
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the

asr-002548
02:11:53.620 --> 02:11:56.800
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: indicators,

asr-002549
02:11:57.020 --> 02:11:58.300
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: so the actual numbers that our

asr-002550
02:11:58.300 --> 02:11:59.040
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: distinguished colleague

asr-002551
02:11:59.040 --> 02:12:02.140
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: said, was

asr-002552
02:12:02.140 --> 02:12:03.880
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: actually measured po

asr-002553
02:12:03.880 --> 02:12:05.940
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: when we introduced those standards,

asr-002554
02:12:06.580 --> 02:12:07.500
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: the new standards.

asr-002555
02:12:08.320 --> 02:12:10.680
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Kaya po, nagka-shortfall

asr-002556
02:12:10.680 --> 02:12:12.520
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: kasi nag-adjust po yung

asr-002557
02:12:12.520 --> 02:12:14.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: standards natin.

asr-002558
02:12:16.040 --> 02:12:16.780
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, yung actual

asr-002559
02:12:16.780 --> 02:12:18.460
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: number at the time, kung ano po yung

asr-002560
02:12:18.460 --> 02:12:20.380
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: performance indicator, medyo

asr-002561
02:12:20.380 --> 02:12:21.660
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: nagkaroon po na yung gap.

asr-002562
02:12:21.660 --> 02:12:22.320
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, ganun po,

asr-002563
02:12:22.340 --> 02:12:23.020
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: tayo ka,

asr-002564
02:12:23.100 --> 02:12:26.300
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Distinguished Sponsor, ganun po ba tayo

asr-002565
02:12:26.300 --> 02:12:28.580

02:12:28.580 --> 02:12:30.360
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: nung in-adjust natin to?

asr-002567
02:12:30.480 --> 02:12:32.020
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Kaya, biglang nag-ano?

asr-002602
02:12:51.930 --> 02:12:55.680
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: Yes, that would also account for the gap.

asr-002603
02:12:56.380 --> 02:12:59.060
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: At the same time po, medyo dumami daw po yung domains.

asr-002604
02:12:59.840 --> 02:13:01.420
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: May cyber domain na

asr-002605
02:13:01.420 --> 02:13:04.140
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: mag-iba-iba po talaga eh.

asr-002606
02:13:04.360 --> 02:13:06.260
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: So, parang nung in-account po yun dun sa

asr-002607
02:13:06.260 --> 02:13:09.080
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: changing of the standards, talagang lumaki yung gap

asr-002608
02:13:09.080 --> 02:13:10.840
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: dun sa

asr-002609
02:13:10.840 --> 02:13:12.740
Rep. Bella Vanessa B. Suansing: actual versus yung target.

asr-002610
02:13:13.820 --> 02:13:14.340
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc: Anyway,
