ang naitalang poor households sa CBMS

**[03:28:36.400] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000364)

**[03:28:40.320] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000366)  
ang 10% above poor

**[03:28:42.040] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000367)

households na dikit sa poor

**[03:28:50.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000371)

mas mataas sa poverty line

**[03:28:54.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000373)

boundary ng kahirapan,

**[03:28:58.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000375)  
kung susumahin po, halos 4.4

**[03:29:00.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000376)  
million households pa rin ang

**[03:29:02.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000377)  
kinalalabasan. Halos kapareho

**[03:29:04.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000378)  
po ito ng dating target ng 4Peace

**[03:29:06.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000379)  
noong nakaraang mga taon.

**[03:29:08.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000380)  
Ibig sabihin po, Mr. Speaker,

**[03:29:10.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000381)  
hindi na wala ang pangangailangan,

**[03:29:38.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000395)  
Mr. Speaker, malinaw rin ang sinasabi ng

**[03:29:40.020] Rep. JC M. Abalos** (asr-000396)  
evidence-based research. Ayon sa

pinakahuling pagsusuri ng World Bank,

Bawat dagdag na 1% ng GDP

Ayon din po sa World Bank,

Mr. Speaker,

Sinasalamin ng pambansang

pinapahalagahan ng gobyerno.

**[03:31:10.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000441)  
At kung bubusisiin po

**[03:31:12.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000442)

**[03:31:14.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000443)  
panukalang budget para sa taong

**[03:31:16.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000444)  
2027, hindi po ang

**[03:31:18.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000445)  
karaniwang Pilipino ang inuuna rito.

**[03:31:20.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000446)  
Una, ang maling

**[03:31:22.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000447)  
prioridad sa pagitan ng utang

**[03:31:24.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000448)  
at serbisyo. Mas mabilis

**[03:31:26.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000449)  
pang lumobo ang otomatik na pambayad

**[03:31:28.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000450)  
utang natin kaysa sa

**[03:31:30.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000451)  
pondong inilalaan para sa mga ospital,

**[03:31:32.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000452)  
paaralan, at pabahay.

**[03:31:34.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000453)  
Hindi makatuwiran na

**[03:31:36.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000454)  
bilombilyon ang otomatikong

**[03:31:38.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000455)  
binabayaran sa mga dayuhang

**[03:31:40.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000456)  
bangko habang kinukulang

**[03:31:42.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000457)

**[03:31:44.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000458)  
ang mga batayang serbisyong

**[03:31:46.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000459)  
pampubliko. Pangalawa,

**[03:31:48.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000460)  
ang kawalan ng sapat na pondo

**[03:31:50.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000461)  
laban sa El Niño. Batid

**[03:31:52.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000462)  
nating lahat na mastitindi ang

**[03:31:54.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000463)  
tagtuyot sa 2027,

**[03:31:56.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000464)  
ngunit hindi ito sinasalamin

**[03:31:58.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000465)  
ng ating budget. Kulang

**[03:32:00.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000466)  
ang inilalaang pondo para sa

**[03:32:02.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000467)  
erigasyon, supply ng tubig,

**[03:32:04.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000468)  
at direktang suporta sa mga

**[03:32:06.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000469)  
magasaka at mangingisda.

**[03:32:08.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000470)  
Kung walang kongkretong pondo para

**[03:32:10.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000471)  
rito, ngayon pa lang,

**[03:32:12.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000472)  
sinusugal na natin ang

**[03:32:14.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000473)  
siguridad sa pagkain ng buong bansa.

**[03:32:16.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000474)  
At pangatlo, ang

**[03:32:18.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000475)  
112 billion

**[03:32:20.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000476)  
pisong unprogrammed appropriations.

**[03:32:22.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000477)  
Ang pondo ng bayan

**[03:32:24.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000478)  
ay dapat tiyak at nakaplano.

**[03:32:26.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000479)  
Ang pagtatabi ng

**[03:32:28.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000480)  
lagpas ng isang daang bilyon

**[03:32:30.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000481)  
na nakalaan sa unprogrammed appropriations

**[03:32:32.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000482)  
ay pondong ipinagkakait

**[03:32:34.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000483)  
natin ngayon sa mga pangunahing

**[03:32:36.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000484)  
pangangailangan ng

**[03:32:38.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000485)  
mamamayan. Ang halagang ito

**[03:32:40.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000486)  
ay sapat na sana para

**[03:32:42.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000487)  
napunan ang kakulangan sa kalusugan

**[03:32:44.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000488)  
at agrikultura.

**[03:32:46.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000489)  
Mr. Speaker, ang budget na ito

**[03:32:48.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000490)  
ay mas pinipiliunahin

**[03:32:50.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000491)  
ang pagbabayad ng utang

**[03:32:52.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000492)  
at mag-imbak ng pondo

**[03:32:54.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000493)  
kaysa sa paghandaan

**[03:32:56.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000494)  
ang krisis sa klima at

**[03:32:58.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000495)  
suportahan ang sektor ng agrikultura.

**[03:33:00.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000496)  
Ang boto kong no

**[03:33:02.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000497)  
ay para sa mga magasakang

**[03:33:04.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000498)  
walang patubig, mangingisdang

**[03:33:06.020] Rep. Arlene "Kaka" J. Bag-ao** (asr-000499)

Pilipinong laging nahuhuli

Mr. Speaker, mga kasama.

Majority Leader.

**[03:33:16.020] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000504)  
Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize

Maraming salamat

Mr. Speaker.

ang magiging kwento ng

**[03:33:38.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000515)  
budget na ito?

**[03:33:40.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000516)  
Will this finally be the budget that

**[03:33:42.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000517)  
ensures ordinary Filipinos

**[03:33:44.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000518)  
have access to basic services,

**[03:33:46.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000519)  
affordable

**[03:33:48.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000520)  
transportation, and decent

living conditions?

**[03:33:52.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000522)  
Or will this be a budget that will

once again fail to deliver

**[03:33:56.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000524)

lives for every Filipino

**[03:34:00.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000526)  
family? Unfortunately,

**[03:34:02.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000527)  
the answer is

**[03:34:04.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000528)  
glaringly obvious.

**[03:34:06.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000529)  
The story of this budget

**[03:34:08.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000530)  
is one of compromise and

**[03:34:10.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000531)  
broken commitments.

**[03:34:12.020] Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña** (asr-000532)  
Mr. Speaker, my dear

The least amount of

At least.

Sa pagbabantay natin at pagpapanday

naging malinaw sa publiko

**[03:37:32.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000632)  
na wala sa prioridad ng gobyerno

Ang palusot,

**[03:38:22.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000657)  
walang fiscal space.

**[03:38:24.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000658)  
Ano ba ang kanilang mga dinaranas?

**[03:38:26.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000659)  
Sa UP Diliman,

**[03:38:28.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000660)  
sampung taon nang under construction

**[03:38:30.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000661)  
ang faculty center na nasunog

**[03:38:32.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000662)  
noong April 2016,

**[03:38:34.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000663)  
noong sophomore pa lang po ako sa kolehyo.

**[03:38:36.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000664)  
Sa PUP Manila,

**[03:38:38.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000665)  
apat na taon na rin

pagpapagawa ng gusali.

**[03:38:48.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000670)  
Kaya ang tanong ng mga eskolar ng bayan,

**[03:38:50.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000671)  
ano na?

**[03:38:52.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000672)  
Dalawa pa lang ito sa daan-daang halimbawa

**[03:38:54.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000673)  
kung gaano kalala ang pagkakait

**[03:38:56.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000674)

**[03:38:58.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000675)

**[03:39:00.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000676)  
maunawaan, Mr. Speaker, last

**[03:39:02.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000677)  
year, nakita natin pwede palang

**[03:39:04.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000678)  
maglaan ng mas malaking budget

**[03:39:06.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000679)  
sa edukasyon. Kayang

**[03:39:08.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000680)  
sagutin ang free higher education

**[03:39:10.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000681)  
deficiency, kayang sagutin

**[03:39:12.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000682)  
ang mga classroom at pangailangan ng

**[03:39:14.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000683)  
pamantasan. Pero ngayong

**[03:39:16.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000684)  
taon, scaled down ulit,

**[03:39:18.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000685)  
napatunay ang peak performative

**[03:39:20.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000686)  
ang budget this year.

**[03:39:22.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000687)  
The education budget must

**[03:39:24.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000688)  
never go lower. It can

**[03:39:26.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000689)  
and should only go higher.

**[03:39:28.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000690)  
And so, Mr. Speaker, this begs

**[03:39:30.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000691)  
the question, what is taking

**[03:39:32.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000692)  
up all that fiscal space?

**[03:39:34.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000693)  
Year in, year out, the national budget

**[03:39:36.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000694)  
is overflowing with pork.

**[03:39:38.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000695)  
Sa taong ito mismo,

**[03:39:40.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000696)  
ang sumusunod ay ang mga pambababoy

**[03:39:42.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000697)

**[03:39:44.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000698)  
Una, may

Pangalawa,

**[03:40:40.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000726)  
In total, Mr. Speaker,

**[03:40:42.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000727)  
that's 1.15 trillion pesos

**[03:40:44.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000728)  
for corruption and

**[03:40:46.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000729)  
fascism, while the budget for education

**[03:40:48.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000730)  
and social services are

**[03:40:50.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000731)  
yearly and severely gutted.

**[03:40:52.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000732)  
And to remind this

**[03:40:54.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000733)  
August Chamber, marami pong kailangan

**[03:40:56.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000734)  
para tuloy-tuloy ang

**[03:40:58.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000735)  
budget ng kabataan at edukasyon.

**[03:41:00.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000736)  
Pero ang klaro po, inaabandonan

**[03:41:02.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000737)  
ng gobyerno ang mga kabataan at maralit

**[03:41:04.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000738)

**[03:41:06.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000739)  
my last paragraph. Ang kita po,

**[03:41:08.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000740)  
ang klaro po sa kabataang

**[03:41:10.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000741)

**[03:41:12.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000742)  
Pilipinas, BBM

**[03:41:14.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000743)  
ang bawat budget, Mina Marcos.

**[03:41:16.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000744)  
Dahil BBM,

**[03:41:18.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000745)  
binababoy ang buwis ng mamamayan.

**[03:41:20.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000746)  
Kaya BBM,

**[03:41:22.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000747)  
babawi ang bayang makikibaka.

**[03:41:24.020] Rep. Renee Louise M. Co** (asr-000748)  
Kaya muli, no ang

Mr. Speaker, I move

**[03:41:40.020] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000756)  
to recognize the distinguished lady

**[03:41:42.020] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000757)  
from Party List ML,

**[03:41:44.020] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000758)  
Hon. Layla M. de Lima, to explain

**[03:41:45.820] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000759)  
her vote.

**[03:41:46.500] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-000759-insert-01)  
The Honorable Leila M. de Lima, you have three minutes.

**[03:41:48.860] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000760)  
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

**[03:41:50.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000761)  
Thank you, Majority Leader.

**[03:41:52.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000762)  
Mr. Speaker, I vote no

**[03:41:54.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000763)  
to the General

**[03:41:56.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000764)  
Appropriations Bill. Let me be fair.

**[03:41:58.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000765)  
The amendments added

**[03:42:00.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000766)  
funds for classrooms, school safety,

**[03:42:02.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000767)  
commuters, patients, and families.

**[03:42:04.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000768)  
I acknowledge that.

**[03:42:06.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000769)  
As stewards of taxpayers' money,

**[03:42:08.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000770)  
we must ensure that ordinary

**[03:42:10.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000771)  
people benefit from our collective

**[03:42:12.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000772)  
choices. This budget has

**[03:42:14.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000773)  
only 1.15 trillion

**[03:42:16.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000774)  
in real fiscal space.

**[03:42:18.000] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000775)  
and after amendments, P541.5 billion, or nearly half of it, went to pork.

**[03:42:25.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000776)  
AICS, MAIPF, Tupad, and cash aid nearly doubled from NEP levels,

**[03:42:30.460] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000777)  
with P67.5 billion added at the BARSC.

**[03:42:34.300] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000778)  
Hard pork rose by P48.2 billion.

**[03:42:38.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000779)  
The DPWH convergence program alone gained P74.1 billion,

**[03:42:44.140] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000780)  
while flood management was cut by P16.3 billion.

**[03:42:48.420] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000781)  
The LGSF, already the largest in history,

**[03:42:51.780] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000782)  
rose to P62.6 billion on the year before the 2028 elections.

**[03:42:57.400] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000783)  
What remains for initiatives that could propel our country

**[03:42:59.980] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000784)  
is just 8.5% of the proposed 2027 budget.

**[03:43:04.880] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000785)  
Paano natin naayusin ang kalidad ng serbisyo

**[03:43:07.980] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000786)  
kung kinakainan ng patronage ang pondo?

**[03:43:11.840] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000787)  
Patronage is not only about how much,

**[03:43:14.520] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000788)  
it is also about how funds are distributed,

**[03:43:17.220] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000789)  
where they go.

**[03:43:18.000] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000790)  
When they are given,

**[03:43:19.780] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000791)  
who benefits,

**[03:43:20.900] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000792)  
and ultimately,

**[03:43:22.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000793)  
who decides.

**[03:43:23.320] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000794)  
Falgo was written into the 2027 NEP

**[03:43:25.980] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000795)  
at P37.49 billion,

**[03:43:29.020] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000796)  
exactly the same amount

**[03:43:30.700] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000797)  
that the BICAM ballooned it to in the 2026 GAA.

**[03:43:34.660] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000798)  
Last year's insertion is this year's baseline.

**[03:43:38.400] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000799)  
It has no cap per LGU

**[03:43:40.520] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000800)  
and no objective basis for who gets what.

**[03:43:43.260] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000801)  
Kapag palakasan ng basehan,

**[03:43:46.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000802)  
ang pondo ay nagiging kasangkapan

**[03:43:48.000] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000803)  
sa politika,

**[03:43:49.240] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000804)  
hindi sa pagunlad.

**[03:43:51.000] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000805)  
Naninindigan pa rin tayo

**[03:43:52.440] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000806)  
na walang tuwang ang UA

**[03:43:53.860] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000807)  
or unprogrammed appropriation

**[03:43:56.000] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000808)  
sa pambansang budget.

**[03:43:57.700] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000809)  
Some will say,

**[03:43:58.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000810)  
UA is not bloated this time.

**[03:44:01.420] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000811)  
But discretion did not disappear.

**[03:44:03.860] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000812)  
Lumipat lang ang dagdag sa LGSF.

**[03:44:06.760] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000813)  
Iba lang ang pangalan,

**[03:44:08.220] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000814)  
pareho pa rin ang pakay.

**[03:44:10.080] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000815)  
Ang nakakadismaya sa lahat,

**[03:44:12.760] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000816)  
saan kinuha ang pondo?

**[03:44:14.740] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000817)  
Reallocation is a zero-sum game.

**[03:44:17.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000818)  
130 billion was cut

**[03:44:19.400] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000819)  
from the foreign-assisted projects

**[03:44:21.480] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000820)  
or FAPs of DOTR,

**[03:44:23.720] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000821)  
DPWH,

**[03:44:24.980] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000822)  
and other agencies.

**[03:44:26.520] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000823)  
How will this be implemented

**[03:44:27.840] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000824)  
when their line items are gone?

**[03:44:30.540] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000825)  
Our loan commitments remain.

**[03:44:33.340] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000826)  
Excuse me.

**[03:44:34.440] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000827)  
Pahalala lang po.

**[03:44:36.400] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000828)  
Pumabot na sa 1 billion

**[03:44:37.820] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000829)  
ang commitment fees dahil sa delays

**[03:44:39.860] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000830)  
because this chamber keeps defunding FAPs

**[03:44:42.920] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000831)  
and parking them in the UA.

**[03:44:44.920] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000832)  
These are fiscally

**[03:44:47.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000833)  
irresponsible choices.

**[03:44:49.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000834)  
The Constitution makes the President's budget

**[03:44:51.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000835)  
of expenditures and sources of financing

**[03:44:53.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000836)  
quote-unquote,

**[03:44:55.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000837)  
the basis of the General Appropriations Bill.

**[03:44:57.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000838)  
When we carve FAPs out of that program

**[03:45:01.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000839)  
to make room for pork,

**[03:45:03.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000840)  
we pass a ga'a that no longer matches

**[03:45:05.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000841)  
its own financing plan.

**[03:45:07.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000842)  
At hindi lang FAPs ang tinamaan.

**[03:45:09.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000843)  
Mas malaki ang kaltas sa health promotion,

**[03:45:12.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000844)  
immunization and family planning commodities,

**[03:45:15.120] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000845)  
classrooms against the

**[03:45:16.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000846)  
166,000 classroom backlog,

**[03:45:19.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000847)  
consumer or consular services for OFWs,

**[03:45:23.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000848)  
the NDRMM fund kung kailan may Super El Niño.

**[03:45:27.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000849)  
The national budget is a moral document,

**[03:45:30.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000850)  
our social contract with every Filipino taxpayer.

**[03:45:34.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000851)  
Dapat itaguyod ng budget na ito ang dignidad

**[03:45:37.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000852)  
at kinabukasan ng Pilipino at ng ating bansa.

**[03:45:41.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000853)  
Instead, this budget tells our children,

**[03:45:44.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000854)  
our sick, our OFWs, our commuters,

**[03:45:47.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000855)  
and our marginalized to suffer,

**[03:45:49.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000856)  
while it tells the politically useful

**[03:45:51.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000857)  
to come and collect.

**[03:45:53.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000858)  
Ang budget na ito ay hindi people-centered.

**[03:45:57.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000859)  
Ito ay election-centered.

**[03:45:59.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000860)  
For these reasons, Mr. Speaker,

**[03:46:01.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000861)  
Mamamayang Liberal or ML Party List votes no.

**[03:46:05.960] Rep. Leila M. de Lima** (asr-000862)  
Maraming salamat po.

**[03:46:07.960] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-000863)  
Majority Leader?

**[03:46:09.960] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000864)  
Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize

**[03:46:11.960] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000865)  
Rachel Cutie Del Mar, 1st District, Cebu City,

**[03:46:13.960] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-000866)  
to explain her vote.

**[03:46:15.960] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-000867)  
Honorable Rachel Marguerite Del Mar,

**[03:46:18.960] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-000868)  
it's recognized you have three minutes.

**[03:46:21.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000869)  
Mr. Speaker, I vote no

**[03:46:23.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000870)  
because I cannot support a budget

**[03:46:25.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000871)  
that raises serious concerns about fairness,

**[03:46:27.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000872)  
accountability, and the urgent infrastructure needs

**[03:46:30.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000873)  
of the highly urbanized city I represent,

**[03:46:33.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000874)  
particularly my flood-stricken district.

**[03:46:37.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000875)  
I vote no because our allocation

**[03:46:39.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000876)  
has been declined dramatically

**[03:46:41.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000877)  
from 1.774

**[03:46:44.800] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000878)  
billion under the 2025

**[03:46:47.060] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000879)  
General Appropriations Act,

**[03:46:49.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000880)  
to 1.306 billion in 2026,

**[03:46:53.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000881)  
and now to only 492.250 million

**[03:46:58.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000882)  
under the proposed 2027

**[03:47:01.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000883)  
National Expenditure Program, the NEP.

**[03:47:04.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000884)  
This represents a reduction of approximately

**[03:47:07.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000885)  
62.33% from our 2026 allocations

**[03:47:11.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000886)  
and 72.25% from our 2025 allocation.

**[03:47:20.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000887)  
I vote no because 280 million

**[03:47:23.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000888)  
in 2025 infrastructure funding

**[03:47:26.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000889)  
that was awaiting the release

**[03:47:28.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000890)  
of the Special Allotment Release Order ,

**[03:47:31.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000891)  
will reportedly no longer be released,

**[03:47:34.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000892)  
despite my efforts to approach

**[03:47:36.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000893)  
various individuals and offices

**[03:47:38.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000894)  
to seek assistance.

**[03:47:40.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000895)  
After exhausting these efforts,

**[03:47:42.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000896)  
I was informed that the funding

**[03:47:44.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000897)  
will no longer materialize.

**[03:47:48.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000898)  
This raises a serious question.

**[03:47:50.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000899)  
What happens to the projects

**[03:47:52.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000900)  
that were supposed to be implemented,

**[03:47:54.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000901)  
and more importantly,

**[03:47:56.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000902)  
to the constituents who were supposed

**[03:47:58.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000903)  
to benefit from them?

**[03:48:00.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000904)  
I vote no because another 642.958 million

**[03:48:05.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000905)  
from our 2026 allocation remains unreleased.

**[03:48:09.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000906)  
Our city deserves a clear accounting

**[03:48:12.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000907)  
of these funds and an explanation

**[03:48:14.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000908)  
for the delays.

**[03:48:16.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000909)  
We need concrete answers regarding

**[03:48:18.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000910)  
the status of the projects

**[03:48:20.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000911)  
for which they were appropriated.

**[03:48:22.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000912)  
I vote no because my district continues

**[03:48:25.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000913)  
to suffer from recurring floods

**[03:48:27.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000914)  
and our people urgently need

**[03:48:29.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000915)  
efficient drainage systems,

**[03:48:31.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000916)  
flood control infrastructures,

**[03:48:33.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000917)  
improved waterways,

**[03:48:35.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000918)  
and resilient public works.

**[03:48:37.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000919)  
Flooding threatens homes,

**[03:48:40.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000920)  
disrupts livelihoods,

**[03:48:42.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000921)  
damages properties,

**[03:48:44.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000922)  
and puts lives at risk.

**[03:48:46.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000923)  
These are not optional projects.

**[03:48:49.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000924)  
They are essential investments

**[03:48:51.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000925)  
in public safety, economic security,

**[03:48:54.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000926)  
and human dignity.

**[03:48:56.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000927)  
How can we adequately protect

**[03:48:58.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000928)  
our constituents from recurring floods

**[03:49:01.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000929)  
when funding for critical infrastructure

**[03:49:03.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000930)  
remains uncertain

**[03:49:05.220] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000931)  
and our proposed allocation continues to shrink?

**[03:49:09.940] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000932)  
I vote no because a substantial

**[03:49:12.200] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000933)  
reduction in our district's

**[03:49:14.020] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000934)  
infrastructure allocation

**[03:49:15.740] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000935)  
raises serious questions

**[03:49:17.480] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000936)  
about whether the proposed budget

**[03:49:19.320] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000937)  
adequately addresses the needs

**[03:49:21.040] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000938)  
of our people.

**[03:49:21.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000939)  
As a highly urbanized city

**[03:49:23.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000940)  
facing recurring and severe flooding,

**[03:49:25.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000941)  
we require sustained investments

**[03:49:27.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000942)  
in drainage systems,

**[03:49:29.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000943)  
flood control facilities,

**[03:49:31.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000944)  
waterways,

**[03:49:32.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000945)  
and other critical infrastructure.

**[03:49:34.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000946)  
Budgetary investments

**[03:49:36.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000947)  
must be guided

**[03:49:38.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000948)  
by objective considerations,

**[03:49:40.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000949)  
including population infrastructure deficiencies,

**[03:49:43.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000950)  
disaster vulnerability,

**[03:49:45.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000951)  
and the urgency of public needs.

**[03:49:47.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000952)  
Our constituents deserve

**[03:49:49.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000953)  
a clear explanation of these priorities

**[03:49:51.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000954)  
when evaluated

**[03:49:53.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000955)  
and why the funding has been reduced

**[03:49:55.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000956)  
despite the continuing need

**[03:49:57.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000957)  
for these essential projects.

**[03:49:59.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000958)  
I vote no because our constituents

**[03:50:01.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000959)  
deserve more than appropriations

**[03:50:03.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000960)  
on paper and assurances

**[03:50:05.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000961)  
that never translate

**[03:50:07.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000962)  
into completed projects.

**[03:50:09.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000963)  
They deserve transparency,

**[03:50:11.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000964)  
timely fund releases,

**[03:50:13.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000965)  
functioning infrastructure,

**[03:50:15.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000966)  
and meaningful protection

**[03:50:16.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000967)  
against disasters.

**[03:50:18.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000968)  
My position is grounded

**[03:50:19.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000969)  
in my responsibility

**[03:50:21.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000970)  
to the people I represent.

**[03:50:24.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000971)  
I seek a fair and needs-based

**[03:50:25.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000972)  
allocation of public funds,

**[03:50:27.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000973)  
a full accounting of previously

**[03:50:28.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000974)  
approved appropriations,

**[03:50:30.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000975)  
and the timely implementation

**[03:50:31.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000976)  
of projects essential to the safety

**[03:50:33.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000977)  
and welfare of my constituents.

**[03:50:35.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000978)  
These are reasonable expectations

**[03:50:37.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000979)  
and every community should be entitled

**[03:50:39.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000980)  
to demand from the national government.

**[03:50:41.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000981)  
My position is simple.

**[03:50:42.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000982)  
The city district I represent

**[03:50:44.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000983)  
deserves a fair consideration

**[03:50:46.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000984)  
in the allocation of public funds,

**[03:50:48.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000985)  
particularly in addressing

**[03:50:50.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000986)  
urgent flood control

**[03:50:51.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000987)  
and infrastructure projects.

**[03:50:53.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000988)  
Equally important,

**[03:50:54.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000989)  
funds already appropriated

**[03:50:56.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000990)  
for our constituents

**[03:50:57.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000991)  
must be fully accounted for

**[03:50:59.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000992)  
and the delays or failures

**[03:51:01.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000993)  
in their release must be examined.

**[03:51:04.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000994)  
I vote no because I cannot ask

**[03:51:06.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000995)  
my constituents to accept

**[03:51:08.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000996)  
a drastically reduced allocation

**[03:51:10.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000997)  
while their infrastructure needs

**[03:51:13.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000998)  
remain unmet.

**[03:51:14.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-000999)  
Their communities continue

**[03:51:15.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001000)  
to endure flooding

**[03:51:16.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001001)  
and hundreds of millions of pesos

**[03:51:18.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001002)  
in previous allocations

**[03:51:19.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001003)  
remain unreleased

**[03:51:21.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001004)  
or reportedly will no longer be released.

**[03:51:23.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001005)  
I vote no because a national budget

**[03:51:25.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001006)  
must be measured

**[03:51:26.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001007)  
not only by the amount it appropriates

**[03:51:28.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001008)  
but also by the fairness

**[03:51:30.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001009)  
of its distribution.

**[03:51:31.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001010)  
The accountability of its implementation

**[03:51:33.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001011)  
and the lives it improves

**[03:51:35.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001012)  
and protects.

**[03:51:36.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001013)  
I vote no because my responsibility

**[03:51:38.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001014)  
is to stand up

**[03:51:39.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001015)  
for the people I represent

**[03:51:40.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001016)  
to demand fairness,

**[03:51:42.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001017)  
insist on accountability

**[03:51:43.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001018)  
and ensure that the needs

**[03:51:44.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001019)  
of our flood-stricken communities

**[03:51:46.960] Rep. Rachel Marguerite B. Del Mar** (asr-001020)  
are not overlooked.

Dahil sa mga kadahilanang ito, ang

boto ng Gabriela Women's Party ay

**[03:55:51.960] Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago** (asr-001145)  
no sa House Bill No. 10858.

**[03:55:55.400] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001146)

R. Irice, 2nd District,

**[03:56:01.960] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001150)  
Caloocan City, to explain his vote.

**[03:56:03.960] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001151)  
Honorable Edgar Irice is

**[03:56:05.960] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001152)  
recognized. You have 3 minutes, sir.

**[03:56:07.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001153)  
Yun ang speaker,

**[03:56:09.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001154)  
mga kagalang-galang,

**[03:56:11.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001155)  
mga kasamahan.

**[03:56:13.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001156)  
Mahiya naman kayo.

**[03:56:15.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001157)  
Yan ang matinding

**[03:56:17.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001158)  
sinabi ng ating Pangulo

**[03:56:19.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001159)  
noong 2025.

**[03:56:21.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001160)  
So na. Ngayon,

**[03:56:23.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001161)  
matapos nating ipasa ang

**[03:56:25.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001162)  
2027 General Appropriations

**[03:56:27.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001163)  
Bill, nais kong

**[03:56:29.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001164)  
sabihin, ako po ang

**[03:56:31.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001165)  
nahihiya sa sambayan ng Pilipino.

**[03:56:33.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001166)  
Hindi pa rin tayo natuto.

**[03:56:35.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001167)  
Sa kabila ng kahirapan at

**[03:56:37.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001168)  
pagdarahop ng mga mamamayan,

**[03:56:39.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001169)  
tuloy pa rin ang ligaya.

**[03:56:41.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001170)  
Yun ang speaker, sa aking pananaw, ang

**[03:56:43.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001171)  
budget na ito ay hindi pangunahing budget

**[03:56:45.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001172)  
para sa pagpapaunlad ng

**[03:56:47.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001173)  
Pilipinas. Ito ay budget na labis

**[03:56:49.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001174)  
nabahiran ng interest

**[03:56:51.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001175)  
ng mga politiko, ng mga dinastiyang

**[03:56:53.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001176)  
ayaw ng bumitaw sa kapangyarihan

**[03:56:55.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001177)  
at ng sistema ang nagbibigay ng timpala

**[03:56:57.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001178)  
sa mga kaalyado

**[03:56:59.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001179)  
at nagpaparusa sa mga

**[03:57:01.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001180)  
nangangahas tumutol. Ito ang

**[03:57:03.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001181)  
dahilan kung bakit ang boto ko ay hindi.

**[03:57:05.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001182)  
Una, hindi ito

**[03:57:07.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001183)  
budgeting by need. Ito ay budgeting

**[03:57:09.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001184)  
by political influence.

**[03:57:11.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001185)  
Ang malalaki na ang alokasyon, lalo pang

**[03:57:13.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001186)  
pinalaki. Ang maliliit na nga ang

**[03:57:15.960] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001187)  
alokasyon, lalo pang pinaliit.

**[03:57:18.000] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001188)  
Nasaan ang equity? Nasaan ang katarungan? Nasaan ang objective criteria?

**[03:57:23.840] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001189)  
Sa aking paunang pagsusuri, kapansin, malalaking alokasyon ng ilang distritong kinakatawan ng mga liderato,

**[03:57:30.560] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001190)  
ng mga kalyado, ng mga kongresistang sumuporta sa impeachment laban kay Vice President Sara Duterte.

**[03:57:37.000] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001191)  
May mga distrito naman na bumoto ng no na napakaliit ng alokasyon.

**[03:57:41.360] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001192)  
Lalo rin kailangang suriin ang malalaking alokasyon sa ilang mga naging prosecutors sa impeachment.

**[03:57:48.000] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001193)  
Nagkataon lamang na ba na ang ganitong pagkakaiba o may political reward and punishment system sa pambansang budget.

**[03:57:56.880] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001194)  
Hindi ako humihingi ng special na pabor para sa aking distrito.

**[03:58:00.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001195)  
Ang hinihingi ko ay pantay na pagtrato sa ating mga mamamayan na siyang makikinabang ng mga alokasyon na ito.

**[03:58:07.420] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001196)  
At higit na nakakabahala, may mga proyektong nakapaloob sa National Expenditures Program na binawasan o tuluyang inalis.

**[03:58:17.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001197)  
Mga proyektong pinag-aralan, sinuri at dumaan sa regular na proseso ng pagbabudget.

**[03:58:22.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001198)  
Pinalitan ng mga proyektong hindi natin malaman kung sino ang nagpaano kala at kung paano pinili.

**[03:58:28.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001199)  
Hindi mo malaman kung saang kamay ng demonyo hinugon ang mga proyektong biglang sumulpot.

**[03:58:34.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001200)  
Samantala ang mga orinal na proyektong binawasan ay maaaring maging unimplementable.

**[03:58:40.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001201)  
Kulang na ang pondo upang matapos ang proyekto.

**[03:58:44.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001202)  
Hindi ba ito kahawig ng pamamaraan?

**[03:58:47.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001203)  
Nung 19th Congress, kung talagang nagbago na tayo, bakit parang bumabalik ang parehong sistema?

**[03:58:55.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001204)  
Ikalawang dahilan, bakit ayaw natin nagganap na transparency sa budget?

**[03:58:59.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001205)  
Hindi tinanggap ang panukala ni Cong. Toby Chanko

**[03:59:03.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001206)  
naglalayong gawing mas malinaw at bukas sa publiko ang detalye ng budget ng House of Representatives.

**[03:59:09.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001207)  
May tinatago ba?

**[03:59:11.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001208)  
Totoo ba ang nababalita na bawat congressman na bumoto ng yes may tig-20 million?

**[03:59:16.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001209)  
At yung nag-no at nag-abstain ay wala?

**[03:59:19.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001210)  
Hindi ko sinasabing totoo, pero dapat linawin nito ng lederato.

**[03:59:24.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001211)  
Dapat ipaliwanagan nito ng mga mamamayang Pilipino,

**[03:59:29.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001212)  
ng mga kinakatawa natin sa mga distrito.

**[03:59:32.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001213)  
Ang pondo ng kongresto, hindi loyalty bonus.

**[03:59:37.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001214)  
Pag pinagkakaitang makatarungang suporta sa isang distrito dahil sa boto ng kinatawa nito,

**[03:59:45.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001215)  
ang tunay na napaparusaan ay hindi ang congressman, kundi ang mga mamamayan.

**[03:59:52.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001216)  
Ikatlo, ang Presidential Port Barrel ng Local Government Support Fund.

**[03:59:56.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001217)  
Kinuong speaker, kinutulan ko ang 62 billion Local Government Support Fund.

**[04:00:01.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001218)  
Sangayon ako sa pagtulong sa mga lokal na pamahalaan.

**[04:00:04.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001219)  
Ngunit hindi ako sangayon na napakalawak na kapangyarihang magpasya kung sino ang bibigyan,

**[04:00:09.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001220)  
magkano ang matatanggap, at kung kailan ilalabas ang pondo.

**[04:00:13.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001221)  
Ito ay tila blank check na binigay ng kongreso sa Pangulo.

**[04:00:17.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001222)  
Nasaan ang malinaw na scorecard?

**[04:00:19.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001223)  
Nasaan ang pamantayan upang matiyak na ang pinakamahirap na bayan ang mabibigyan?

**[04:00:23.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001224)  
Sa aking pananaw, ito ay isang seryosong kaso ng undue delegation of legislative authority

**[04:00:29.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001225)  
na maaaring sumalungat sa Article 6 ng ating konstitusyon.

**[04:00:34.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001226)  
Hindi dapat basta isuko ng kongreso ang kapangyarihan ito sa paglalaan ng pondo.

**[04:00:40.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001227)  
Ano ang garantiyang hindi gagamitin?

**[04:00:43.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001228)  
Sa mga kandidato ng administrasyon sa susunod na hahahalalan.

**[04:00:50.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001229)  
Yun ang speaker.

**[04:00:51.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001230)  
Umikit kumulang 160,000 na silideralan ang kulang hindi inigyan ng malaking pondo.

**[04:00:58.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001231)  
Nagtitipid sa edukasyon.

**[04:01:00.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001232)  
Nagtitipid yung zero billing para sa private hospital.

**[04:01:03.120] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001233)  
Zero allocation.

**[04:01:06.310] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001234)  
Bakit binabawasan ang mga proyektong nagpapangulad ng bansa tulad ng mga foreign assisted

**[04:01:12.760] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001235)  
at flagship program?

**[04:01:15.090] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001236)  
Hindi ba ito rin ang parehong budget manipulation

**[04:01:17.640] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001237)  
na inuugnay kay Saldiko. Hindi naman tayo nadala.

**[04:01:22.260] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001238)  
At ikalima, hindi makatotohanan ang ating revenue projections. [unclear] Saan ang galing ang buong pag-angat? Nakukwenta ba nating lahat ito?

**[04:01:36.420] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001239)  
Honorable Irize, your time is up.

**[04:01:38.880] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001240)  
Hindi po ako nahihiyang

**[04:01:40.240] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001241)  
bumoto ng hindi.

**[04:01:42.680] Rep. Edgar R. Erice** (asr-001242)  
Dahil mas nakakaya ang manahimik sa harap ng mali kaysa tumindig ng mag-isa para sa tama. Maraming salamat po.

**[04:01:51.480] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001242-insert-01)  
Majority Leader.

**[04:01:52.260] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001242-insert-02)  
Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize our distinguished colleague from Kamanggagawa Partylist, good friend, Representative Elijah Rumbawa San Fernando to explain his vote.

**[04:02:04.900] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001242-insert-03)  
The Honorable Elijah San Fernando, you are recognized. You have three minutes, sir.

**[04:02:10.380] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001243)  
Mr. Speaker, no ang boto ng mga manggagawa sa 2027 General Appropriations Bill.

**[04:02:17.640] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001244)  
Ang pambansang budget ay hindi lang basta dokumento o listahan ng mga programa at proyekto.

**[04:02:23.920] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001245)  
Sinasagot nito ang mga tanong na ano ba ang prioridad ng gobyerno?

**[04:02:28.940] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001246)  
Ano ba ang mga solusyon ng pamahalaan sa sangkaterbang problema at pangangailangan ng ating bansa?

**[04:02:35.120] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001247)  
At kasali ba ang taong bayan sa pagdedesisyon kung paano?

**[04:02:41.120] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001248)  
Paano gagastahin ang pera ng bayan?

**[04:02:44.640] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001249)  
Mr. Speaker, mga kasama, pinangakuan tayo ng reforma.

**[04:02:48.980] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001250)  
Pinagmamalaking tinanggal na ang small committee.

**[04:02:52.460] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001251)  
May barsi na, may konsultasyon na sa civil society at ordinaryong tao.

**[04:02:58.360] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001252)  
At meron pa nga ang live stream.

**[04:03:00.140] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001253)  
Pero Mr. Speaker, ang transparency ay hindi lang naman tungkol sa pag-live sa YouTube at Facebook.

**[04:03:08.880] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001254)  
Alam naman ng lahat na bago pa magbibigay,

**[04:03:11.120] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001255)  
nag-live stream ang barsi, nagkaroon na ng executive session.

**[04:03:16.040] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001256)  
Sa likod ng kamera, naplansya na ang gusot, naluto na ang putahe,

**[04:03:21.220] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001257)  
nahilot na ang mga pakisuyo at pakiusap,

**[04:03:24.760] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001258)  
naiayos na ang script, sino ang magsasabi at ano ang sasabihin.

**[04:03:31.000] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001259)  
At nang okay na, lights, camera, action!

**[04:03:35.280] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001260)  
Perfect! Praktisadong praktisado.

**[04:03:38.280] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001261)  
Walang actual deliberation.

**[04:03:41.120] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001262)  
Walang paliwanag ano ba ang mga dinagdagan, ano at saan ang mga nabawasan.

**[04:03:47.160] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001263)  
Kahit nga nandito na sa plenaryo, wala man lang report na mailabas ang barsi,

**[04:03:52.680] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001264)  
kahit malinaw na sinasabi ng sarili nating rules, dapat meron.

**[04:03:58.280] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001265)  
Mr. Speaker, anlabo rin po ng spending choices natin.

**[04:04:03.340] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001266)  
Bukang bibig ng halos lahat, limited fiscal space.

**[04:04:07.400] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001267)  
Wala daw pagkukunan ng budget.

**[04:04:09.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001268)  
Walang budget para sa dagdag na hospital, doktor, nurse,

**[04:04:13.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001269)  
sa dagdag na gamot at mas maayos na healthcare system,

**[04:04:16.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001270)  
pero may 48.2 bilyon peso sa MAIFIP o guarantee letter.

**[04:04:22.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001271)  
Walang budget para sa dagdag na inspectors,

**[04:04:25.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001272)  
sa mas marami at magagandang trabaho,

**[04:04:28.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001273)  
sa mas malakas at matino na Department of Labor and Employment,

**[04:04:32.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001274)  
pero may 19 bilyon pesos para sa tupad.

**[04:04:35.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001275)  
Walang budget para sa pagpapalakas ng agrikultura,

**[04:04:39.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001276)  
sa bansa, pero may 10 bilyong piso para sa PAF,

**[04:04:43.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001277)  
bilang ayuda sa mga magsasaka.

**[04:04:45.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001278)  
Walang budget sa mga matatanda at may kapansanan,

**[04:04:48.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001279)  
pero may 56 bilyon pesos para sa AICS.

**[04:04:52.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001280)  
Mr. Speaker, mga kasama, may 7.2 trillion piso tayong inaprubahan ngayon,

**[04:04:58.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001281)  
pero pati balde, bilang paghahanda sa Super El Niño, tayo ang pinabibili.

**[04:05:05.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001282)  
Ordinaryong Pilipino ang pinabibili.

**[04:05:07.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001283)  
Hindi tayo tutol sa ayuda.

**[04:05:10.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001284)  
Pero ang malinaw, sa halip na pangmatagalang solusyon,

**[04:05:14.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001285)  
ang alam lang gawin ng gobyerno ay ayuda, ayuda, ayuda.

**[04:05:19.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001286)  
Ginagawa nating parang pulubing namamalimos ang sarili nating kababayan.

**[04:05:24.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001287)  
Pero gano'n na ba tayo, Mr. Speaker?

**[04:05:26.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001288)  
Yes, Mr. Speaker, patapos na po.

**[04:05:29.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001289)  
Pero gano'n na ba tayo?

**[04:05:31.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001290)  
Talaga bang natutuwa tayo kapag tinuturing tayong mga superhero at tagapagligtas,

**[04:05:36.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001291)  
habang miserable ang buhay ng marami sa atin.

**[04:05:40.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001292)  
Hindi dapat utang na loob sa mga politiko ang serbisyong dapat naman na natatanggap ng mga Pilipino.

**[04:05:48.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001293)  
Mr. Speaker, binibigyang diin natin.

**[04:05:51.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001294)  
Hindi sapat na lumalaki ang ayuda kung hindi natin tinutugunan ang mga dahilan

**[04:05:56.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001295)  
kung bakit napakaraming mga Pilipino ang paulit-ulit na nangangailangan nito.

**[04:06:01.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001296)  
Sa mga nabanggit, Mr. Speaker,

**[04:06:04.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001297)  
sa ngalan po ng mga manggagawa at ordinaryong Pilipino,

**[04:06:08.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001298)  
mariin naming inirirehistro ang boto namin ay no.

**[04:06:12.600] Rep. Elijah Rumbaoa San Fernando** (asr-001299)  
Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker.

**[04:06:14.600] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001300)  
Majority Leader.

**[04:06:15.600] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001301)  
Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize our distinguished colleague from the lone district of Nevada City,

**[04:06:19.600] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001302)  
Representative Tobias Tobichanko, to explain his vote.

**[04:06:23.600] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001303)  
The Honorable Tobias Tobichanko is recognized. You have three minutes.

**[04:06:30.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001304)  
Mr. Speaker, I vote no.

**[04:06:32.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001305)  
Sa ilalim ng Article 6, Section 25, Paragraph 3 ng ating konstitusyon,

**[04:06:40.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001306)  
malinaw na nakasaad, and I quote,

**[04:06:43.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001307)  
The procedure in approving appropriations for the Congress

**[04:06:48.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001308)  
shall strictly follow the procedures for approving appropriations for other departments.

**[04:06:54.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001309)  
Maliwanag na hindi natin sinunod ang probisyong ito dahil ang budget ng House of Representatives

**[04:07:00.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001310)  
ay hindi dumaan sa committee deliberation at direktang dinara sa plenaryo.

**[04:07:07.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001311)  
Mas nakakabahala, biglang binago ang schedule ng budget hearing.

**[04:07:11.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001312)  
Sino ba naman ang magbabasa ng e-mail ng 205 ng madaling araw

**[04:07:17.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001313)  
para malaman na tatalakayin na ang budget ng House ng alas 10 ng umaga sa araw ding iyon?

**[04:07:28.820] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001314)  
Hindi rin pinagbigyan ang aking hiling na

**[04:07:31.720] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001315)  
muling buksan ang deliberasyon

**[04:07:33.620] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001316)  
kahit pinayagan nito para sa MMDA.

**[04:07:37.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001317)  
Mr. Speaker, kung hinihingi natin ang transparency at accountability

**[04:07:44.200] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001318)  
mula sa ibang ahensya ng pamalaan,

**[04:07:47.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001319)  
dapat handa rin tayong ipatupad ang parehong pamantayan sa ating sarili.

**[04:07:55.120] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001320)  
Hindi katanggap-tanggap ang double standard.

**[04:07:59.200] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001322)  
sa kabila nito,

**[04:08:00.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001323)  
dinagdagan pa ng BARSI ng 5,000,000,000 piso o 28.37% ang budget ng House of Representatives

**[04:08:11.420] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001324)  
nang walang malinaw na paliwanag kung saan gagamitin ang malaking halagang ito.

**[04:08:18.940] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001325)  
Hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin nabibigay ang kompletong record kung aling mga ahensya ang binawasan ng pondo,

**[04:08:26.060] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001326)  
alin ang dinagdagan, magkano at bakit.

**[04:08:30.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001327)  
Dahil hindi maaaring dagdagan ang kabuwang budget,

**[04:08:35.400] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001328)  
bawat pisong idadagdag sa isang ahensya ay kailangang manggaling sa pondong binawas sa iba.

**[04:08:43.440] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001329)  
Karapatan ng sambayan ng Pilipino na malaman kung saan nanggagaling at saan napupunta ang kanilang pera.

**[04:08:51.500] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001330)  
Noong period of individual amendments, naghahain ako ng dalawang simpleng panukala.

**[04:08:56.560] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001331)  
Una, ang mandatory publication ng House Budget Utilization.

**[04:09:00.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001332)  
Kabilang ang mga halagang inilaan, ibinayad o ginastos para sa bawat membro ng House of Representatives.

**[04:09:10.520] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001333)  
Pangalawa, ang mandatory publication ng DPWH projects sa bawat congressional districts.

**[04:09:16.780] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001334)  
Kabilang ang mga proyektong hiniling o iminungkahi ng district congressman at party list representatives.

**[04:09:23.300] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001335)  
Parehong tinanggihan ang dalawang amyendang ito.

**[04:09:26.480] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001336)  
Ginoong speaker, simple lang ang layunin ng mga panukala.

**[04:09:30.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001337)  
Malaman ng sambayan ng Pilipino kung paano ginagastos ang kanilang pera.

**[04:09:37.880] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001338)  
Kaya nais kong itanong, ano ba ang kinakatakutang isa publiko ng House of Representatives?

**[04:09:45.540] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001339)  
Kung wala tayong itinatago, bakit natin ayaw isa publiko ang mga impormasyong ito?

**[04:09:51.140] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001340)  
Please wind up, Honorable Chanko.

**[04:09:52.780] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001341)  
Yes, Mr. Speaker, I'll wind up. Just one more page.

**[04:09:55.580] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001342)  
Kung walang tinatago ang Kamara, ang transparency ay dapat maging

**[04:10:00.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001343)  
pinakamalaking kakampi nito, hindi isang bagay na dapat labanan.

**[04:10:05.760] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001344)  
Ang transparency ay nagsisilbing proteksyon sa integridad ng institusyong ito.

**[04:10:10.920] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001345)  
Binibigyan nito ng pagkakataon ng publiko na makita ang pagkakaiba ng mga lehitimong gastusin at mga gastusin dapat kwestyonin.

**[04:10:20.040] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001346)  
Pinatitibay din ito ang tiwala ng mamamayan sa paggamit ng kanilang pera.

**[04:10:25.460] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001347)  
Ang transparency ay hindi nakadepende sa kagustuhan ng mga may kontrol sa pondo ng bayan.

**[04:10:31.560] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001348)  
Dapat itong maging obligadong pananagutan ng bawat opisyal na pinagkatiwalaang gumamit ng pampublikong pondo.

**[04:10:40.400] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001349)  
Hindi tayo maaaring humingi ng accountability mula sa eksekutibo kung ayaw nating ipatupad ang parehong pamantayan sa sarili natin.

**[04:10:49.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001350)  
Mr. Speaker, ang tunay na usapin ay hindi lamang kung gaano kalaki ang budget.

**[04:10:54.040] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001351)  
Ang usapin ay kung handa ba ang institusyong ito na magbigay ng malinaw

**[04:11:00.860] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001352)  
at kumpletong paliwanag kung papaano ginagamit ang perang ipagpinagkatiwala dito.

**[04:11:09.680] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001353)  
Para patan nilang malaman kung saan napupunta ang kanilang pera, kung paano ito ginagastos at kung sino ang dapat managot sa paggamit nito.

**[04:11:19.120] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001354)  
Public office is a public trust, public funds demand public accountability.

**[04:11:24.800] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001355)  
Dahil sa mga kadahilan ng ito at bilang paninindigan sa aking prinsipyo,

**[04:11:30.600] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001356)  
I vote no to House Bill 10858,

**[04:11:33.740] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001357)  
the General Appropriations Bill

**[04:11:35.100] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001358)  
for Fiscal Year 2027.

**[04:11:37.520] Rep. Tobias "Toby" M. Tiangco** (asr-001359)  
Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker.

**[04:11:39.180] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001360)  
Majority Leader.

**[04:11:40.260] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001361)  
Mr. Speaker, the last to explain this vote

**[04:11:42.180] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001362)  
relative to House Bill No. 10858,

**[04:11:44.680] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001363)  
I move to recognize

**[04:11:46.380] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001364)  
Representative Antonio El Tino,

**[04:11:48.620] Rep. Gil "KabarangayJr" Acosta** (asr-001365)  
Partylist Act Teachers.

**[04:11:50.320] Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong** (asr-001366)  
Honorable Antonio El Tino,

**[04:12:00.600] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001369)  
Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker.

**[04:12:06.220] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001370)  
No, ang boto ng Act Teachers, Partylist

**[04:12:10.140] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001371)  
sa House Bill 10858

**[04:12:12.980] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001372)  
o ang General Appropriations Bill

**[04:12:14.900] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001373)  
para sa 2027.

**[04:12:18.000] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001374)  
Ang bill na ito ay isang pork barrel budget na sinusustentuhan ng utang para sa pakinabang ng mga bilyonaryo at politiko, hindi ng taong bayan.

**[04:12:32.460] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001375)  
Sinusuportahan ng budget na ito ang pagninegosyo ng mga oligarko sa kuryente, langis, tubig, enerhiya, infrastruktura, importasyon ng bigas at iba pang pagkain,

**[04:12:49.040] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001376)  
kasabay ng pagpapalobo sa mga proyekto at ayuda na pinagmumulan ng korupsyon at pamumilitika sa mga serbisyong panlipunan.

**[04:13:01.140] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001377)  
Ano?

**[04:13:02.460] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001378)  
Ang para sa mamamayang nagdurusa, lalo na sa bigat ng 7.2% inflation.

**[04:13:10.440] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001379)  
Walang iba kundi budget cut sa edukasyon, kalusugan, pabahay, kabuhayan, kasabay ng ayuda ng politiko na tinatawag na safety nets at panunupil.

**[04:13:28.420] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001380)  
Bawas na nga sa proposal ng Malacanang,

**[04:13:32.460] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001381)  
Binawasan pang lalo ng Kongreso ang budget ng DOH ng 16.4 billion sa kanyang mga susing programa,

**[04:13:43.620] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001382)  
partikular ang para sa mga pasilidad at kagamitang pangkalusugan, commodities for family health, immunization, nutrition and responsible parenting, health promotion and quick response fund.

**[04:13:59.140] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001383)  
Binawasan ang total budget ng DEPED ng 6.17 billion.

**[04:14:02.460] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001384)  
Partikular ang para sa classroom at para sa computerization.

**[04:14:10.400] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001385)  
Binawasan ang budget para sa public education.

**[04:14:14.620] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001386)  
Wala pang 1% ang pagtaas sa MOOE operations budget ng mga public elementary and high schools.

**[04:14:24.000] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001387)  
Pero lihim ding tinaasan ng 1.93 billion ang private school voucher program.

**[04:14:30.180] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001388)  
Binawasan din ng 9.5 billion ang calamity fund, 10 billion ang pension and gratuity fund at hindi tinaasan ang budget na nakalaan para sa pagtaas ng personnel economic relief allowance ng government employees mula sa 11.7 billion na nasa proposal ng Malacanang.

**[04:15:00.180] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001389)  
Habang binawasan ang pondo para sa serbisyong panlipunan, tinaasan naman ang pondo para sa patronage-based na ayuda program.

**[04:15:09.660] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001390)  
Tinaasan ang para sa medical assistance program sa AICS at sa TUPAD.

**[04:15:14.480] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001391)  
Kailangan dumaang ka sa politiko para ma-access ang mga ito.

**[04:15:19.320] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001392)  
Pinalaki rin ang pondo para sa infrastructure, DPWH budget.

**[04:15:26.340] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001393)  
Nagpasok ang Kongreso ng mahigit 6,212

**[04:15:31.240] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001394)  
na proyekto sa NEP.

**[04:15:34.060] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001395)  
Halos ni-rewrite ang DPWH budget.

**[04:15:39.060] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001396)  
At ang sinusunod na prinsipyo rito ay ang prinsipyo ng carrot and stick o reward and punishment.

**[04:15:46.580] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001397)  
Kung malapit ka sa usina, mas malaki ang alokasyon.

**[04:15:50.040] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001398)  
Kung malayo sa usina, kung hindi ka susunod sa marching orders ng leadership at malakanyANG, mas maliit ang iyong alokasyon.

**[04:15:59.380] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001399)  
Dinagdagan ang kontrobersyal na

**[04:16:04.080] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001401)

At muli, nais nating hindiin.

**[04:16:16.080] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001406)  
Patapos na po tayo, Mr. Speaker.

**[04:16:18.320] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001407)  
Kumusta ang pondo?

**[04:16:20.500] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001408)  
Muli, para sa 2 million

**[04:16:22.060] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001409)  
government employees.

**[04:16:24.500] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001410)  
Binawasan na nga ng 10 billion

**[04:16:26.340] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001411)

Kahit, pero sa kabilang

**[04:16:45.560] Rep. Antonio L. Tinio** (asr-001421)

Sa inyo pong lahat, muli, maraming maraming maraming salamat po.

**[04:23:46.220] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001533)  
When the National Expenditure Program was turned over to the House last August,

**[04:23:53.480] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001534)  
we made a commitment to the Filipino people that every centavo earned through their hard work,

**[04:24:00.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001535)  
and paid it taxes, must be spent wisely, honestly, and on programs that will make a real difference in their lives.

**[04:24:13.240] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001536)  
Sinabi natin noon, sa bawat sentimong pinaghirapan ng ating mga kababayan, ay dapat magamit ng tama.

**[04:24:23.220] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001537)  
Dapat bumalik ito sa kanila sa pamamagitan ng mas maayos na edukasyon,

**[04:24:30.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001538)  
serbisyong pangkalusugan, tulong sa mga nangangailangan, at mga programang tunay na makapagpapagaan sa kanilang buhay.

**[04:24:42.380] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001539)  
Ito po ang naging gabay natin sa bawat akbang ng pagbuo ng 2027 National Budget.

**[04:24:51.220] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001540)  
Tinaya natin na ito ay may transparency at itunuloy din natin ang mga reformang sinimulan natin noong nakaraang taon,

**[04:25:00.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001541)  
katulad ng BAR-C.

**[04:25:08.120] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001542)  
Sinigurado natin na ang pinakamahalagang pamantayan ay ang mga pangangailangan ng ating mga kababayan,

**[04:25:17.300] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001543)  
mula sa edukasyon at kalusugan, hanggang sa paghahanda sa mga sakunang dulot ng climate change, katulad ng El Niño.

**[04:25:27.020] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001544)  
An additional of 10.6

**[04:25:30.780] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001545)  
billion in funds were allocated for education programs that support school safety, inclusive learning, academic recovery, and access to quality tertiary education.

**[04:25:45.880] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001546)  
Kasama po dito ang 500 million para sa school safety and security program para mabawasan ang pangamba ng mga magulang at siguraduin natin protektado.

**[04:26:00.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001547)  
Ang ating mga kabataan.

**[04:26:02.360] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001548)  
Kasama rito ang dagdag ng 2.1 billion para sa tertiary education subsidy, 1.9, 1.93 million for the basic education voucher program para matugulan ang mga mag-aaral mula kindergarten hanggang grade 6, at 1.77 billion para sa tulong dunong program.

**[04:26:28.320] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001549)  
Sa bawat kabataan.

**[04:26:30.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001550)  
Ang Pilipino na nagsisikap para maabot ang kanilang mga pangarap, katuwang ninyo po ang Kongreso.

**[04:26:38.080] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001551)  
Hindi dapat maging hadlang ang kahirapan para hindi makapagtapos ng pag-aaral ang kabataang Pilipino.

**[04:26:46.320] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001552)  
Nananatiling prioridad ang kalusugan kaya nagdagdag tayo ng 27.36 billion para dito.

**[04:26:55.520] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001553)  
23.97 billion of this allocated.

**[04:27:00.400] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001554)  
For the medical assistance program as part of the efforts to ensure the implementation of zero balance billing in government hospitals.

**[04:27:13.960] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001555)  
With the amendments made by the House, the total budget for health increase by 12.23 billion.

**[04:27:22.900] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001556)  
Ito po ang hakbang naming ginawa dahil alam naming mabigat ang gastusin

**[04:27:28.880] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001557)  
ng ating mga kababayan sa tuwing may nagkakasakit.

**[04:27:32.520] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001558)  
Kami po ay patuloy nagagawa ng mga paraan

**[04:27:35.980] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001559)  
para maibsan ang pasaning ito.

**[04:27:39.880] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001560)  
Hindi pa man dumarating, maagap din tayong kumilos

**[04:27:43.480] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001561)  
para mabigyan ng karagdagang pondo sa paghahanda laban sa sinasabing super El Niño,

**[04:27:50.220] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001562)  
kung saan tatamaan ang libo-libo nating mga mangingisda at magsasaka.

**[04:27:57.540] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001563)  
To address this threat,

**[04:27:59.280] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001565)  
We allocated an additional of 10 billion for the presidential assistance to farmers and fisher folks, 500 million po for expanded fertilizer assistance, 4.09 billion for irrigation projects nationwide, 150 million for agricultural transports infrastructure, 4.96 billion to farm to market roads, 100 million for high value crops,

**[04:28:27.560] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001566)  
and 331 million for climate resilient farm productivity support.

**[04:28:34.560] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001567)  
Sa ating mga farmers and fisher folk, ito po ang aming panata.

**[04:28:40.820] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001568)  
Huwag po kayong mga mba dahil anumang unos ang dumating, nandito ang buong pamalaan at ang kamera na kasama ninyong naghahanda upang harapin ang mga hamong ito.

**[04:28:53.300] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001569)  
Bukod po dito, may mga dinagdag tayong pondo para mapabuti ang sektor ng transportasyon.

**[04:29:02.140] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001570)  
Nagdagdag po tayo ng 500 million para sa service contracting program at 1 billion para sa fuel subsidies na inaasang mapapakinabangan ng mga PUD driver, operator, tricycle driver, delivery driver, at iba pang mga transport service providers.

**[04:29:23.300] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001571)  
We have also added 75 million for the NCR busway project and 774 million for airports.

**[04:29:36.760] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001572)  
Lahat po ito ay para higit na masubortahan ang sektor ng transportasyon at matugunan ang mga pangangailangan ng mga Pilipinong umaasa sa pampublikong transportasyon araw-araw.

**[04:29:51.420] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001573)  
Ngayon, natapos na po ang [unclear] ng budget. Samahan niyo po kaming bantayan ng implementasyon ng mga ito.

**[04:30:01.040] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001574)  
Gaya po ng sinabi natin sa NEP turnover, ang budget ay pera ng taong bayan. May karapatan silang malaman kung saan ito mapupunta, bakit ito kailangan, at ano ang maaasahang resulta.

**[04:30:18.500] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001575)  
Bukod sa budget, marami pang ibang matitimbang na panukala ang ating tinutukan sa pagpasok natin ng second regular session. Simulan natin ang mga panukala na ating hinain para pangalagaan ang ating mga kabataan. Una, isinulong natin ang mas mahigpit na gun safety at responsible firearm storage upang maiwasan ang mga aksidente at karahasan maaaring ilagay sa panganib ang ating mga anak.

**[04:30:51.980] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001576)  
Pangalawa, sa Children's Social Media Safety Act na pinasa natin sa pangatlong pagbasa, nais natin protektahan ang mga bata laban sa mapanganib na online content sa pamamagitan ng age restriction, parental consent at mas mahigpit na pananagutan ng social media platforms.

**[04:31:14.600] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001577)  
Our children deserve to be safe wherever they are, at home, in school, on the streets, and online, kaya agad tayong kumilos at naghain ng mga panukalang batas.

**[04:31:27.560] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001578)  
Sa katunayan, November pa lamang kinalampag na po natin ang DICT para tugunan ang mga problema nito. Sana hindi na madagdagan pa ang mga kabataang mapapahamak dahil sa maling paggamit ng ilang online sites. Kasabay nito, nananawagan tayo sa DICT na tugunan din ang pinsalang dulot ng online scams at online gambling.

**[04:31:54.140] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001579)  
Hindi natin maaaring hayaang lumaganap ang panlilinlang at panluloko sa ating mga digital at online spaces dahil hindi lamang mga kabataan ang nabibiktima nito kundi maging ang matatanda at ang ating mga OFWs. Batay sa datos, 121.8 billion ang nawala sa mga Pilipino dahil sa iba't ibang klase ng scam noong taong 2025. Kailangan natin gawing

**[04:32:25.960] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001580)  
mas mahigpit ang mga proteksyon laban dito at panagutin ang mga scammers. Hindi na po katanggap-tanggap ito. Kailangan sama-sama tayong kumilos para matigil ang mga gawain

**[04:32:39.300] Speaker Faustino "Bojie" G. Dy III** (asr-001581)  
ito. Bukod sa proteksyon ng ating mga anak, kailangan din natin tiyakin na mayroon silang pagkakataong makapag-aral, makapagtapos, at magkaroon ng magandang kinabukasan.
