Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I reaffirm our commitment to sustaining the AFP's modernization

161
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,900
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: with our fiscal constraints.

162
00:31:27,420 --> 00:31:35,000
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Kapag hinahamak ang ating bandila at kinigipit ang ating mga kababayan sa sarili nating mga karagatan,

163
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,460
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: dapat malinaw ang ating prinsipyo at matatag ang ating tugon.

164
00:31:40,300 --> 00:31:43,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Sa gitna ng maraming mga hamon at kinakaharap ng ating bansa,

165
00:31:43,620 --> 00:31:51,780
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: kailangan buo ang ating loob at nagkakaisang ating pagtindig na mapagtatanggol ng pambansang interes.

166
00:31:52,580 --> 00:31:53,600
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Ito ang diwa ng pambansang interes.

167
00:31:53,740 --> 00:31:57,900
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Ito ang pangakong ating binibigas sa tuwing inaawit ang lupang hinirang,

168
00:31:58,340 --> 00:32:02,180
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: na sa harap ng sino mang manlulupig kailanman ay hindi tayo pasisiil.

169
00:32:02,900 --> 00:32:07,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I remain steadfast in my belief that defending our nation's honor and sovereignty

170
00:32:07,380 --> 00:32:13,040
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: through the attainment of a credible defense posture must transcend partisan loyalties,

171
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,100
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: political considerations, and personal interests.

172
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:20,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: The defense of our nation must always rise above politics

173
00:32:20,420 --> 00:32:23,580
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: and remain firmly anchored in our shared commitment

174
00:32:23,580 --> 00:32:27,280
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: to national security, sovereignty, and the Filipino people.

175
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:28,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Maraming salamat po.

176
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,720
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: At this juncture, also, the Chair would like to acknowledge the presence of our Senate President,

177
00:32:33,420 --> 00:32:34,500
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Senator Win Gatchalian.

178
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,660
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So I'd like to ask my colleagues if they have any opening statement.

179
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,660
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Let me start with our Senate President.

180
00:32:42,980 --> 00:32:44,480
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Magandang hapon, Mr. Chairman.

181
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:49,960
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Magandang hapon, Secretary Teodoro, sa lahat po ng ating kasama sa Armed Forces of the Philippines.

182
00:32:51,700 --> 00:32:53,460
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Talaga pong mabilis pong nagbabalik.

183
00:32:53,580 --> 00:32:58,820
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Pabago ang geopolitical situation dito sa ating region at sa buong mundo na rin.

184
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:05,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Nakikita po natin yung iba't ibang mga conflict na nangyari sa Middle East,

185
00:33:05,700 --> 00:33:10,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: sa Eastern Europe, at sa iba pang parte ng buong mundo.

186
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:15,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: At sa ganitong punto, importante po na maging handa tayo

187
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: at patuloy po natin minomodernize at pinapalakas po ang ating Armed Forces.

188
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Kasama na rin po dito yung pagdating po sa cyber warfare.

189
00:33:23,580 --> 00:33:28,720
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Marami rin po akong pabalitaan at napapanood po sa balita

190
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:39,680
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: na ang cyber warfare ay isa po sa mga bagay na nagiging realidad na sa mga ganito pong sitwasyon.

191
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,620
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Alam ko, komplikado po itong cyberspace pero ganun pa man,

192
00:33:44,620 --> 00:33:53,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: importante na nakakabili [unclear] po tayo ng mga

193
00:33:53,580 --> 00:34:02,780
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: kagamitan na makakatulong po tayo sa pagprepara sa mga ganitong conflicts at warfare.

194
00:34:03,740 --> 00:34:13,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: At sa kabilang punto, ang Armed Forces of the Philippines ay hindi lang tag-defend ng ating bansa

195
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:18,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: kung hindi rin rin meresponder ito sa mga kalamidad na nangyayari po sa ating bansa.

196
00:34:18,940 --> 00:34:23,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: At isa rin po sa mga bagay na dapat po natin tignan,

197
00:34:23,580 --> 00:34:31,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: multi-role capability ng ating armed forces, lalo na pag tumatama sa ating malaking bagyo

198
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,600
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: o mayroong mga malalaking kalamidad na nararanasan natin.

199
00:34:36,220 --> 00:34:44,120
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So kami po ay sumusuporta sa pagbibigay ng dagdag kapasidad ng ating armed forces

200
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:49,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: at importante rin po na tuloy-tuloy yung supporta, sustainable yung pagsusuporta natin

201
00:34:49,540 --> 00:34:53,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: hanggat umabot tayo sa kakayahan na gusto natin makita.

202
00:34:53,580 --> 00:34:54,960
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So maraming salamat, Mr. Chairman.

203
00:34:55,820 --> 00:35:02,600
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, our Senate President. Maraming salamat din sa supporta mo nung isang taon sa ating armed forces.

204
00:35:02,820 --> 00:35:06,240
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: The biggest ever, probably, budget for the AFP modernization.

205
00:35:06,860 --> 00:35:08,820
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Our colleague, Senator Panfilo Lacson.

206
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:16,420
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: None from this representation. I'll just listen to the presentation and seek clarification if I need to. Thank you.

207
00:35:16,780 --> 00:35:18,520
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, Senator Lacson, Senator Tulfo.

208
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,340
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Thank you, Mr. Chair. Magandang araw po sa ating lahat.

209
00:35:22,340 --> 00:35:28,760
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Today, as we deliberate the proposed 2027 budget of the Department of National Defense,

210
00:35:29,180 --> 00:35:37,480
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: let us be guided by our commitment to protect our sovereignty, uphold our territorial integrity,

211
00:35:38,460 --> 00:35:41,220
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: and ensure the safety and security of every Filipinos.

212
00:35:42,940 --> 00:35:48,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: But how can we do that if the budget of the National Defense is cut down,

213
00:35:48,300 --> 00:35:52,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: if I'm not mistaken, about 43.01%?

214
00:35:52,340 --> 00:35:57,620
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Bapano po natin mapoprotektahan ang ating soberenya,

215
00:35:58,780 --> 00:36:01,020
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: pagtatanggol po ang ating teritoryo,

216
00:36:01,740 --> 00:36:07,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: at masiguro ang siguridad at kapakanan ng bawat Pilipino kung binawasan po ng budget?

217
00:36:09,100 --> 00:36:11,340
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Ang budget na ito ay hindi lamang tungkol sa numbers and allocations.

218
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:18,280
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: It represents our investment in stronger, more capable, and more modern armed forces of the Philippines.

219
00:36:19,020 --> 00:36:22,280
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Ang bawat pisong inilalaan sa pambansang depensa ay dapat,

220
00:36:22,340 --> 00:36:24,420
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: magsilbi sa kapakanan ng sambayan ng Pilipino.

221
00:36:25,260 --> 00:36:31,160
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Every allocation must translate into tangible improvements in our country's defense, posture,

222
00:36:31,780 --> 00:36:37,940
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: operational readiness, and ability to respond to both traditional emerging security challenges.

223
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,120
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Nabawasan nga po ang external threat.

224
00:36:42,220 --> 00:36:49,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Ang ating internal threat, tumaas naman po ang external threat, meaning kalaban galing sa labas.

225
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: How do we address that kung mas maliit po na budget?

226
00:36:53,060 --> 00:36:57,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: We also recognize that national defense goes beyond preparedness.

227
00:36:58,240 --> 00:37:01,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: It encompasses our commitment to our soldiers and their families,

228
00:37:01,740 --> 00:37:05,140
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: our support for communities affected by conflict and disasters,

229
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,800
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: and our contribution to a peaceful, secure, and resilient Philippines.

230
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,540
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: We look forward to a constructive discussion of DND's 2027 proposed budget

231
00:37:14,540 --> 00:37:19,700
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: to ensure that every peso strategically allocated, responsibly spent,

232
00:37:19,700 --> 00:37:22,200
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: and aligned with our national defense priorities.

233
00:37:22,340 --> 00:37:24,400
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Maraming salamat po, Gen. Chairman.

234
00:37:26,300 --> 00:37:27,860
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, Senator Tulfo.

235
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:34,820
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Before we ask the Department of National Defense and the AFP for the presentation,

236
00:37:34,980 --> 00:37:38,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I seek the indulgence of our colleagues to allow the department and the touch agency

237
00:37:38,420 --> 00:37:41,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: to conclude their presentation before asking questions.

238
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,900
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Each center will be allowed later with about 10 minutes for questions.

239
00:37:46,420 --> 00:37:50,980
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: In keeping tradition, of course, we will give priority to the officials of the Senate,

240
00:37:50,980 --> 00:37:51,960
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: followed by the centers.

241
00:37:52,340 --> 00:37:53,500
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: In the order of the arrival.

242
00:37:54,140 --> 00:38:00,000
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So at this point, at this juncture, I would like now to call to our Secretary of National Defense,

243
00:38:00,100 --> 00:38:05,440
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Gilbert Teodoro, Jr., to deliver his opening statement and the presentation of the department

244
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:06,980
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: and its attached agencies thereafter.

245
00:38:07,240 --> 00:38:07,560
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you.

246
00:38:08,100 --> 00:38:10,320
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Secretary Teodoro, you now have the floor.

247
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:16,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thank you very much, Mr. Chairperson, and to our Senate President and our sponsor last year,

248
00:38:16,980 --> 00:38:22,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to our Senator Lacson, Vice Chairman, and Senator Tulfo, Vice Chairman, likewise.

249
00:38:22,340 --> 00:38:30,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is indeed an honor to present our budget request once again to this honorable chamber.

250
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:41,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And might I just give a short preface and then if with the indulgence of the senators,

251
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:52,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: go straight to page 15 of the presentation, which is the highlights of the proposed budget per NET.

252
00:38:52,340 --> 00:39:22,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Firstly, we, the Armed Forces of the Philippines, at the forefront together with the Department of National Defense in cooperation with other agencies, have been at the forefront of external defense operations in order to deter further aggression in the West Philippine Sea and other areas now not traditionally encompassed.

253
00:39:22,340 --> 00:39:32,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secondly, there still is robust presence to preserve the gains of internal security

254
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:38,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in areas which have been cleared of the CPP, NPA, and DF threat.

255
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:47,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Nonetheless, we estimate that robust presence of the Armed Forces of the Philippines,

256
00:39:47,420 --> 00:39:52,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: considering that the coverage of the Armed Forces of the Philippines,

257
00:39:52,340 --> 00:39:58,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: not only for operational purposes, but also for administrative and logistical purposes,

258
00:39:59,060 --> 00:40:04,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is not as robust within the 7,600 islands as we want.

259
00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:14,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For this reason, the Philippine Army has been tasked to scope its areas of operations

260
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:19,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and also to determine for logistical and staging purposes

261
00:40:19,980 --> 00:40:22,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and support purposes for our military.

262
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For our strategic basing, which we have proposed,

263
00:40:26,540 --> 00:40:33,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is necessary to establish new presence, whether these be brigades or divisions.

264
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:39,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secondly, these areas will serve as nodes for our critical infrastructure,

265
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:43,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which has to be, as we determined, stand-alone.

266
00:40:44,300 --> 00:40:49,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: You mentioned earlier our cyber systems.

267
00:40:50,140 --> 00:40:51,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We do have capabilities.

268
00:40:52,160 --> 00:41:02,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, these rely on the, shall we say,

269
00:41:02,460 --> 00:41:07,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: sterile nature of critical basic infrastructure,

270
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:12,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which we have had to remediate and deal with.

271
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:19,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: As you know, in terms of IT, you start with IT and then you progress to cyber

272
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because your IT foundation is...

273
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:26,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the basis of your resilience and stability.

274
00:41:26,900 --> 00:41:32,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And one compromise in any area can lead to systemic compromises in others.

275
00:41:33,100 --> 00:41:36,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This we had to continue to remediate.

276
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And as we construct our new infrastructure,

277
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:47,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we will incorporate the resilience necessary in these areas.

278
00:41:48,460 --> 00:41:50,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For our Navy,

279
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:57,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the major thrust once again is not only for the new platforms

280
00:41:57,900 --> 00:42:04,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to complement with the Coast Guard our presence in the 360-degree area,

281
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:13,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but we have a big gap which we are starting to fill hopefully by the end of this year

282
00:42:14,060 --> 00:42:18,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in our dockyards and our berthing facilities.

283
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our naval bases,

284
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our design,

285
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:28,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: except for a few,

286
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: very few,

287
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are not deep nor big enough

288
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:36,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to support the type of operations that we will need.

289
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:40,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thirdly, our Philippine Air Force continues.

290
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:49,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's the sustainment of the systems already ordered

291
00:42:49,060 --> 00:42:51,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and the upgrade of those systems.

292
00:42:52,920 --> 00:43:00,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because we have to upgrade these systems while we try to segue,

293
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: or to not segue,

294
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:11,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to complement this with platforms that we can afford in the meantime,

295
00:43:12,500 --> 00:43:16,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which provide a sufficient deterrence for us.

296
00:43:19,100 --> 00:43:20,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The Philippine Marine Corps,

297
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:34,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have a new commandant here, Brigadier General Apostol, who was tasked to scope the areas which need marine operations,

298
00:43:34,820 --> 00:43:40,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: knowing very well that the Philippine Marine Corps is a maneuver corps.

299
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is not a territorial corps.

300
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:57,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And with three marine brigades and one support brigade, no, four infantry brigades and one support brigade for 7,600 islands,

301
00:43:57,540 --> 00:44:02,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think just the math alone shows that it is too small.

302
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:12,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secondly, the Air Force or the Navy or them must ensure their mobility and must ensure their firepower.

303
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:17,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because a fixed marine unit is not a marine unit.

304
00:44:18,460 --> 00:44:24,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Its essence is its deployability and mobility.

305
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:35,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, Brigadier General Apostol, once he is confirmed, Your Honors, hopefully soon,

306
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:41,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: will devote his time to the...

307
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:47,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ...growth plan of the Philippine Marine Corps that includes equipment.

308
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have talked about the internal security dimension,

309
00:44:53,940 --> 00:45:00,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but a lot of operations right now have seen the connection between territorial...

310
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:24,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: defense and internal security. That is in the front of illegal, FIMI and other illegal activities by undesirable state adversaries that have been proliferating, as the Senate President knows, in our space.

311
00:45:24,780 --> 00:45:54,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Which serve to weaken economic resilience, connectivity, and basic infrastructure, and perhaps other forms of malign activity, which we continued in coordination with other, with the law enforcement agencies to disrupt and to discuss.

312
00:45:54,780 --> 00:46:12,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think that is a major issue right now on internal security of which we devote a lot of cooperative time with the lead agencies, namely the PAO, the NBI.

313
00:46:15,720 --> 00:46:20,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In HADR, of course, it is a constant threat.

314
00:46:20,580 --> 00:46:24,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, we have refined our deliverables now.

315
00:46:24,780 --> 00:46:29,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To a coordinated response as quick as possible.

316
00:46:29,980 --> 00:46:40,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we concentrate on that in the OCD so that we do not lose focus on what people need immediately.

317
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:50,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because feeling that need alone for those who may be displaced is already a very, very tall task.

318
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:54,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And to exceed that will eat into the competence.

319
00:46:54,780 --> 00:47:06,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of the other agencies, which should be doing resilience and other foundational efforts.

320
00:47:06,500 --> 00:47:23,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we try to balance the need to focus, the need to coordinate with the ability also to coordinate international cooperation.

321
00:47:24,780 --> 00:47:30,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For collective resilience on the veteran side.

322
00:47:31,620 --> 00:47:34,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We continue to innovate.

323
00:47:35,740 --> 00:47:49,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Services to our veterans, which not only will be in terms of payment, but in terms of giving them.

324
00:47:49,240 --> 00:47:52,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Wellness and dignity.

325
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:54,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So that they can continue.

326
00:47:54,780 --> 00:48:01,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To continue their lives after they have served in a manner which fits their service.

327
00:48:01,780 --> 00:48:23,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The Veterans Memorial Medical Center, as we said, your honors, now has what we call the Valor Clinics to disaggregate basic medical services throughout the country.

328
00:48:23,060 --> 00:48:24,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So that the veterans.

329
00:48:24,780 --> 00:48:29,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Do not need to come to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center.

330
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:45,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They have a scope that before the spread of the veteran services through the Valor Clinics, only 6% of the veterans were able to avail of medical treatment.

331
00:48:46,460 --> 00:48:54,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we have reported to the president that the structure itself of the medical center is a cause for high infection rates.

332
00:48:54,780 --> 00:48:58,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because of its age and because of its design.

333
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:23,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So it has to be turned down and rebuilt because it is it was made right after liberation, your honors, and it was a dormitory type of hospital, just like the case on Institute before and with today's day and age with the with the strength of viruses that and bacteria.

334
00:49:23,300 --> 00:49:24,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That have.

335
00:49:24,780 --> 00:49:54,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Mutated over time, we cannot tolerate a structure of that kind, therefore, I believe the president has approved phase one where we will be constructing an annex where we transfer the patients while the major reconstruction work is done and there will be a big outpatient service.

336
00:49:54,260 --> 00:49:54,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To.

337
00:49:54,780 --> 00:50:23,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Collocate with the subway exit that is being constructed for the convenience of veterans and the end goal is for it to become a specialized hospital where the outreach clinics cannot handle anymore likewise to be a specialized hospital for cases where the AFP Medical Center cannot handle the case anymore.

338
00:50:24,780 --> 00:50:30,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have instructed them.

339
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To.

340
00:50:33,420 --> 00:50:44,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Free focus their efforts on higher technological munitions and other implements.

341
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:54,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For so long, the government arsenal has not operated as an arsenal, but as a factory.

342
00:50:54,780 --> 00:51:19,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it and and we cannot have it continue that way because at the end of the day, higher technological transfer will only happen on a government to government secret basis with our preferred like minded partners and.

343
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:24,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The government arsenal will be the.

344
00:51:24,780 --> 00:51:35,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Foundation for these venues of joint cooperation on highly potentially.

345
00:51:35,180 --> 00:51:42,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Highly highly confidential platforms and mechanisms and the evolution of the same.

346
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:51,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So their their concentration on small arms munition ammunition shall shift.

347
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:53,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To.

348
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:54,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Indirect.

349
00:51:54,060 --> 00:51:54,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Fired.

350
00:51:54,520 --> 00:52:01,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Weapons cruiser weaponry, which are in demand throughout the world and as a.

351
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:09,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Forum for government to government cooperation with our like minded and.

352
00:52:09,780 --> 00:52:15,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Shall we say comprehensive strategic partner countries?

353
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I gave a brief backdrop.

354
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:19,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your honor.

355
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:21,880

DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Uh.

00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:24,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Uh.

00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:25,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Uh.

00:52:25,900 --> 00:52:26,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Uh.

361
00:52:26,900 --> 00:52:27,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of the agency.

362
00:52:27,900 --> 00:52:35,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of course, as the Senate very well knows, we're also very busy in building up our like minded alliances and we thank the Senate.

363
00:52:35,820 --> 00:52:43,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For recently ratifying our status of visiting forces agreement with France.

364
00:52:43,420 --> 00:52:51,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And I believe there are two more under negotiation to this day with like minded partners and

365
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:52,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we await the.

366
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:53,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Culminate.

367
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:54,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Shot of the.

368
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: those processes so we can

369
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: have a

370
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: greater synergy with them as soon as

371
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:00,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: possible.

372
00:53:02,500 --> 00:53:04,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With that, Your Honors, I will

373
00:53:04,460 --> 00:53:06,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: move to the highlights of

374
00:53:06,420 --> 00:53:07,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the proposed

375
00:53:07,140 --> 00:53:10,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: budget per the

376
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:11,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: National Expenditure Plan.

377
00:53:12,660 --> 00:53:14,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have a regular fund

378
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: allocation, Your Honors, of

379
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: P324.6

380
00:53:19,100 --> 00:53:20,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: billion

381
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:21,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pesos.

382
00:53:21,380 --> 00:53:23,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's 10% growth.

383
00:53:23,500 --> 00:53:24,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And

384
00:53:24,980 --> 00:53:31,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 10% year-on-year

385
00:53:31,620 --> 00:53:33,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: growth. But that's year-on-year, Your Honor,

386
00:53:33,620 --> 00:53:34,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: not from last year.

387
00:53:35,700 --> 00:53:37,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So the annual growth

388
00:53:37,100 --> 00:53:42,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: will come

389
00:53:42,780 --> 00:53:45,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: from

390
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: come on the later slides, but

391
00:53:47,500 --> 00:53:49,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: year-on-year is based on

392
00:53:49,460 --> 00:53:51,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: fiscal year

393
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:51,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 2020.

394
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:59,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 2021, that is the base year.

395
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:01,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So it's

396
00:54:01,740 --> 00:54:03,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 10% year-on-year from

397
00:54:03,340 --> 00:54:04,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 2021.

398
00:54:06,860 --> 00:54:07,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

399
00:54:08,220 --> 00:54:09,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It shows the percentage

400
00:54:09,580 --> 00:54:11,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: share of the OSEC,

401
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:13,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is the whole

402
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:14,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: department proper.

403
00:54:15,820 --> 00:54:17,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The AFP, civilian

404
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: bureaus from the regular

405
00:54:19,340 --> 00:54:21,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: agency funds, Your Honor.

406
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:22,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Wait.

407
00:54:23,500 --> 00:54:26,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Bumilis.

DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Lumundag eh.

DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Lumundag ito, sir.

00:54:31,100 --> 00:54:33,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: previous slide, please.

413
00:54:33,060 --> 00:54:35,060
DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Sir.

DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ikaw lumundag.

DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Ito sa lumundag ito.

416
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:41,040
DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Yung tama.

417
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:42,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ikaw wala lumulundag eh.

418
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:45,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

419
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: May indulgence, Your Honor.

420
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Air Force kasi po ito, kaya

421
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: lumundag na lumundag eh.

422
00:54:53,500 --> 00:54:59,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Okay. So, okay na yan. Habulin na lang natin. Sige. Kumabul ka na. Okay na yan.

423
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:18,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Alright. The Office of the Secretary, which is the whole DND, has 0.49 share percent and it was reduced by 31 percent from year 2021,

424
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:24,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which means to say we have to work more and hire less for less.

425
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:36,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To date, Your Honor, the DND proper has a fill-up of only 268 warm bodies to include myself.

426
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:44,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we have to handle all of these systems. So, it is unsustainable in the long run.

427
00:55:44,380 --> 00:55:48,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we have already pending in the House, DND rego-organization.

428
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:58,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Rego-organization bill, which, I mean, for 260 fill-up, 324 approved plantilla personnel.

429
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That's way, way too small for the amount of work that we do.

430
00:56:04,540 --> 00:56:09,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hence, my shiny forehead, which progresses, Your Honor.

431
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:17,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the Armed Forces of the Philippines, it has 312 billion, Your Honor, 313.

432
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Which is 96 percent of the budget.

433
00:56:24,260 --> 00:56:35,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the civilian bureaus, Your Honor, it has a 3 percent share in the national expenditure plan.

434
00:56:37,580 --> 00:56:38,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

435
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:43,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The breakdown, Your Honor,

436
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: shows that the DND,

437
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:50,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the DND proper received a decrease.

438
00:56:50,860 --> 00:56:53,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The government arsenal decreased.

439
00:56:55,100 --> 00:56:56,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: NDCP decreased.

440
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:00,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: OCD decreased.

441
00:57:01,140 --> 00:57:03,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And PBAO decreased, Your Honor.

442
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:09,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I believe these also require some examination.

443
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:10,660
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Excuse me, Secretary Guibok.

444
00:57:10,660 --> 00:57:11,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

445
00:57:11,540 --> 00:57:14,340
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I ask permission to interject.

446
00:57:14,620 --> 00:57:14,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Apo.

447
00:57:14,860 --> 00:57:18,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi wala ba kayo updated na briefing?

448
00:57:18,380 --> 00:57:18,920
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi

449
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:23,660
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I understand the House has already augmented. Hindi na ito 324.

450
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,720
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yung house version, it's already at 329.

451
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have not received, Sir.

452
00:57:29,860 --> 00:57:31,700
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Ah, wala pa kayong kopya ng gabi.

453
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:33,020
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Anyway, sige, please continue.

454
00:57:33,460 --> 00:57:35,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Wala pa po kaming official sa house.

455
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:38,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Manghingi kayo siya, Chairman, meron na kami.

456
00:57:39,780 --> 00:57:40,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Opo.

457
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:40,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Opo.

458
00:57:41,140 --> 00:57:42,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Para mapasalamatan din po namin.

459
00:57:43,220 --> 00:57:46,840
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Para na ma-update kasi out of date na rin yung 324.

460
00:57:47,340 --> 00:57:47,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Sir.

461
00:57:47,700 --> 00:57:48,740
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Thank you.

462
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:50,280
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Sorry for interjecting.

463
00:57:50,780 --> 00:57:58,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi po, Sir, pag hindi na, di ba, we cannot present the house version hanggat hindi nyo ma-aprubahan kasi ano eh.

464
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero that's good news, Sir.

465
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:03,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thank you very much for the good news.

466
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:12,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, Sir, may I proceed to the next slide already?

467
00:58:16,180 --> 00:58:17,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide already.

468
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:25,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The automatic appropriations, the regular fund, Sir, is 324.63.

469
00:58:26,540 --> 00:58:33,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The automatic appropriations for personnel is 4.1 billion.

470
00:58:33,700 --> 00:58:44,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And the special purpose fund, which is composed of the pensions, is 132 billion.

471
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:54,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The modernization program is included here with 50 billion.

472
00:58:57,380 --> 00:58:58,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On the next slide.

473
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:08,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Personal services.

474
00:59:08,660 --> 00:59:17,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have a slight increase of 179 in line with our...

475
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ...goal to increase our footprint.

476
00:59:24,700 --> 00:59:33,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On MOU, Sir, which is quite important for us because of the tempo of operations right now,

477
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:41,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I can say, Your Honors, that our tempo now is beyond 100%.

478
00:59:41,700 --> 00:59:48,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meaning to say, it's beyond design because of the number of

479
00:59:48,500 --> 00:59:53,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: personnel we have to sustain the number of activities we do.

480
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:59,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That takes into account internal security, HADR...

481
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and for joint exercises, retraining.

482
01:00:03,220 --> 01:00:14,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: What suffers here is the amount of rest and retraining time that our men and women have.

483
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:27,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Right now, we do not have enough forces, both on the operational side to have adequate R&R for them.

484
01:00:27,500 --> 01:00:32,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And secondly, we lack personnel on the support side.

485
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:41,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The ratio of operating to support personnel is 80-20, more or less, which is unsustainable

486
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:53,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because logistics, intelligence, planning, we need a robust infrastructure in order to sustain the operations.

487
01:00:57,500 --> 01:01:08,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, the MOOE increase is much, much welcome, particularly, Your Honor, with the cost of fuel right now.

488
01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:15,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Last year, it is good that we were able to hedge the cost of fuel and assume that they would rise.

489
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:23,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, this year, the increase is relevant.

490
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With capital outlay...

491
01:01:27,500 --> 01:01:31,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With capital outlay, this is where our biggest gap is.

492
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:37,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We need a lot of infrastructure right now, particularly, Your Honors, on the eastern seaboard,

493
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:42,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where we do not have naval presence.

494
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:55,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We do not have substantial infrastructure also in Palawan, not for the naval purposes, but for the army purposes,

495
01:01:55,420 --> 01:01:57,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which will serve...

496
01:01:57,500 --> 01:02:01,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which will serve as hubs for supporting our strategic bases.

497
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:02,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Mindoro.

498
01:02:03,260 --> 01:02:08,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our presence, too, in Mindoro is only one brigade.

499
01:02:09,420 --> 01:02:16,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And with the size of Mindoro, Your Honor, that is not sufficient.

500
01:02:16,820 --> 01:02:21,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In northern Luzon, we have only one division for how many provinces?

501
01:02:21,940 --> 01:02:25,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we only have one naval force.

502
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:27,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In that...

503
01:02:27,500 --> 01:02:31,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In that area, which spans the South China Sea to the Pacific Ocean.

504
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:41,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we really need to refocus our strategic positioning in these areas, Your Honor.

505
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:43,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we cannot do that until...

506
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:50,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: sustainably, until the army solidifies its footprint in the Philippines.

507
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:56,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, capital outlay, Your Honor, is extremely important.

508
01:02:57,500 --> 01:03:07,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Also, for building critical infrastructure facilities for security of our platforms and security of our operations.

509
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:22,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I believe the capital outlay gap has been one of the major gaps that we have found out right now we have to catch up badly with.

510
01:03:23,020 --> 01:03:27,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it includes also access to our bases.

511
01:03:27,500 --> 01:03:33,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In terms of the durability of the infrastructure.

512
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:37,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, the roads and bridges that will link our bases.

513
01:03:37,860 --> 01:03:46,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have found that normal roads and bridges will not be able to support some of the platforms that we have currently because of the weight.

514
01:03:48,340 --> 01:03:51,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, our mobility is a sacrifice.

515
01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We cannot really bridge the whole of the Philippines.

516
01:03:56,500 --> 01:03:56,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes.

517
01:03:57,500 --> 01:04:10,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, the best that we can do is to provide hubs, as many hubs as possible, which will support sustained operations.

518
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:20,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secondly, Your Honor, just like any other entity in the world right now, it's not a matter of just in time, but a matter of reserves and stores.

519
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:26,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that we are busy building up our reserve and stores.

520
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:26,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Not only in...

521
01:04:27,500 --> 01:04:35,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In terms of munitions, but we need it also in terms of petroleum, oil, and lubricants.

522
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:57,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have big notional amounts of petroleum ready, but if we do not have physical custody of this, we will be relying on private gas stations to serve our needs, which is a vulnerability of our operating troops.

523
01:04:57,580 --> 01:05:11,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it poses difficulties for the troops rather than have them serviced in a durable basis, perhaps up to the battalion level.

524
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:16,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

525
01:05:21,580 --> 01:05:26,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The breakdown of regular fund versus...

526
01:05:27,500 --> 01:05:33,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The 2026 and 2027 comparatives, Your Honor.

527
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:47,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we have a slight increase of 6.13% versus last year of 18 billion.

528
01:05:49,540 --> 01:05:56,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But I believe the increase is reflected more in MOOE.

529
01:05:57,500 --> 01:06:01,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Than any other item.

530
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:02,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

531
01:06:10,380 --> 01:06:12,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Modernization, Your Honor.

532
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:20,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 2026 was 90 with the programmed of 40 and unprogrammed of 50.

533
01:06:21,260 --> 01:06:24,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This year, 50-50.

534
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:24,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thank you.

535
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:27,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pensions.

536
01:06:27,500 --> 01:06:34,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pensions have increased by 13.15%.

537
01:06:34,540 --> 01:06:40,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Total.

538
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

539
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For proposals, Your Honor.

540
01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:53,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor.

541
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:56,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our proposals are...

542
01:06:57,500 --> 01:07:07,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Based on our approximation of threats and costs and sustainability of activities as we plan them based on threats.

543
01:07:10,380 --> 01:07:21,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's lower by 248 billion compared to the original proposal we made.

544
01:07:21,980 --> 01:07:26,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But this does not include one-time enhancements of...

545
01:07:27,500 --> 01:07:34,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But this does not include one-time enhancements of equipment and capabilities which will balloon the figure to very very high amounts.

546
01:07:34,140 --> 01:07:38,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we just included our basic requirements, Your Honor.

547
01:07:44,540 --> 01:07:47,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

548
01:07:50,460 --> 01:07:53,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our breakdown shows as follows, Your Honor.

549
01:07:53,780 --> 01:07:55,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of course, from the Office of the Secretary...

550
01:07:57,500 --> 01:08:02,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secretary, it's less 16% from what was asked.

551
01:08:02,780 --> 01:08:07,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: From the Army, it's less by 23%.

552
01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:10,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Air Force, 24%.

553
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Navy, 30%.

554
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And GHQ, 82%.

555
01:08:15,260 --> 01:08:16,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And why GHQ?

556
01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:21,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: GHQ, Your Honor, includes the area commands,

557
01:08:21,700 --> 01:08:24,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which are the principal operating commands.

558
01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are five area commands.

559
01:08:27,500 --> 01:08:32,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And the budget of the area commands come from the GHQ.

560
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:36,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our intelligence command, our sustainment command,

561
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and importantly, our strategic command,

562
01:08:38,940 --> 01:08:43,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: from which our deterrent capabilities will flow,

563
01:08:44,420 --> 01:08:47,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are sourced from the GHQ budget.

564
01:08:48,140 --> 01:08:53,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So this does not mean to say that it is GHQ itself.

565
01:08:53,060 --> 01:08:57,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But the budgets of...

566
01:08:57,500 --> 01:09:02,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: NOLCOM, SOLCOM, WESCOM, BISCOM,

567
01:09:03,260 --> 01:09:06,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: EASTMINCOM, and WESTMINCOM.

568
01:09:07,180 --> 01:09:12,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: These are the operating budgets that come out of the GHQ budget.

569
01:09:13,420 --> 01:09:16,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So the reduction in GHQ

570
01:09:16,440 --> 01:09:23,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: will result in a gap of operations

571
01:09:23,700 --> 01:09:26,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: by the area commands,

572
01:09:26,180 --> 01:09:27,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which are the principal operations,

573
01:09:27,500 --> 01:09:28,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: operating commands.

574
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And therefore, if that is the case,

575
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: then we will have to concentrate the budget

576
01:09:35,300 --> 01:09:39,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: on the areas where there is a biggest threat possible.

577
01:09:39,980 --> 01:09:43,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that will open us to gaps in the other areas.

578
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In the government arsenal,

579
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:54,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: there's a reduction of 11%.

580
01:09:54,340 --> 01:09:54,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pag muna.

581
01:09:56,180 --> 01:09:57,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: NDCP,

582
01:09:57,500 --> 01:09:58,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 6%.

583
01:09:58,420 --> 01:10:00,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Office of Civil Defense,

584
01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:01,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 53%.

585
01:10:01,820 --> 01:10:05,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Philippine Veterans Affairs Office,

586
01:10:05,580 --> 01:10:06,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 23%.

587
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:07,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And Veterans Memorial,

588
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:11,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it's 61%.

589
01:10:11,020 --> 01:10:14,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But this does not reflect the

590
01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:20,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: infrastructure that is going to be sourced

591
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:21,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: from the Office of the President.

592
01:10:23,300 --> 01:10:25,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And for these agencies,

593
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they have one-time items.

594
01:10:27,500 --> 01:10:31,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Which for 2025,

595
01:10:31,820 --> 01:10:34,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which increase their budgets,

596
01:10:34,540 --> 01:10:35,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: thus the reductions,

597
01:10:35,940 --> 01:10:36,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor.

598
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And with the Veterans Memorial Medical Center,

599
01:10:39,980 --> 01:10:42,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they have trust receipts from the DOTR

600
01:10:42,180 --> 01:10:44,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of the subway.

601
01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:53,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The AFP modernization,

602
01:10:53,260 --> 01:10:53,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor,

603
01:10:53,820 --> 01:10:55,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the proposal was 133.

604
01:10:57,500 --> 01:11:07,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Based on the re-Horizon 3 of the modernization program,

605
01:11:09,260 --> 01:11:11,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which has already,

606
01:11:11,700 --> 01:11:14,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it's in the process of being revised again

607
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:18,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of increased threats and increased costs.

608
01:11:19,220 --> 01:11:23,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we once again will appeal,

609
01:11:23,100 --> 01:11:25,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and I think it's pending on the House

610
01:11:25,260 --> 01:11:27,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to already abolish the modernization,

611
01:11:27,500 --> 01:11:28,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: modernization law.

612
01:11:28,620 --> 01:11:31,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because we cannot work on 15-year horizons,

613
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:32,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor,

614
01:11:32,300 --> 01:11:35,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which the modernization law provides.

615
01:11:36,460 --> 01:11:40,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is not a sustainable way

616
01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:45,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of planning your modernization anymore.

617
01:11:46,100 --> 01:11:46,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In a more,

618
01:11:48,380 --> 01:11:50,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for lack of a better term,

619
01:11:50,420 --> 01:11:52,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but to use an economic term,

620
01:11:52,420 --> 01:11:57,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: an opportunistic defense market.

621
01:11:57,500 --> 01:12:00,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is a responsible protected environment.

622
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We propose, Your Honor,

623
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:04,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 134 billion,

624
01:12:05,140 --> 01:12:07,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but only 50 billion was included.

625
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:10,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think the 50 billion,

626
01:12:10,220 --> 01:12:10,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor,

627
01:12:10,580 --> 01:12:16,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: there is a sort of attachment

628
01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:20,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the 50 billion amount

629
01:12:20,100 --> 01:12:23,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for the past how many years already?

630
01:12:24,460 --> 01:12:27,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it was also due to the alignment,

631
01:12:27,500 --> 01:12:38,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: perhaps of the revised AFP modernization to the basis conversion law and dividends from that.

632
01:12:38,620 --> 01:12:49,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But we know that the basis conversion BCDA has only remitted a total of 26 billion pesos

633
01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:57,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the AFP for the past, no, I'm sorry, 45 billion for the past 26 years.

634
01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:02,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So it is not a sustainable way of going forward.

635
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:09,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And yet it has taken away from us assets which cannot be replicated

636
01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:13,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of their strategic location and strategic makeup.

637
01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:18,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So I believe that the,

638
01:13:19,440 --> 01:13:27,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the situation cannot be allowed to continue that more military reservations

639
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:38,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which have to be devoted to national defense are thought of as commercial endeavors.

640
01:13:39,380 --> 01:13:47,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because at the end of the day, it will not fund your modernization in any significant way at all.

641
01:13:48,300 --> 01:13:49,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: As history has...

642
01:13:49,440 --> 01:13:49,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: As history has proven.

643
01:13:54,340 --> 01:14:03,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So there are relatively few changes, Your Honor, for the rest of the items.

644
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:05,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

645
01:14:08,440 --> 01:14:15,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the physical accomplishments, Your Honor, we accomplished 100 percent.

646
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:17,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

647
01:14:18,300 --> 01:14:19,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of...

648
01:14:19,440 --> 01:14:23,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of D&D OSEC policies.

649
01:14:24,500 --> 01:14:25,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And I...

650
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:34,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I also have to beg the indulgence of everybody here under our department

651
01:14:34,460 --> 01:14:37,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because any new policy causes a headache to them

652
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:42,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and they would wish that I would not be churning out more and more policies anymore.

653
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:44,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sorry.

654
01:14:46,420 --> 01:14:49,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So 80 percent of those policies...

655
01:14:49,440 --> 01:14:54,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 80 percent of those policies and strategies were accepted by the President and the Cabinet, Your Honor.

656
01:14:58,360 --> 01:14:59,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

657
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:10,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the AFP, 81% of the tactical units provided force employers.

658
01:15:14,300 --> 01:15:22,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the Philippine Army, Philippine Air Force 100%, and for the Philippine Navy, 100%, Your Honor.

659
01:15:22,140 --> 01:15:46,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, I would like to point out that in the case of the Air Force and the Navy, the 100% is not a figure that, of course, for this year and last year, we should be very proud of, but we should be worried if it continues in the future because 100% is unsustainable.

660
01:15:46,140 --> 01:15:51,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That means to say, we are already at max capacity, if not less.

661
01:15:52,140 --> 01:16:07,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, that means to say that the capacity of the agencies are not enough to sustain the needs of the environment, Your Honor, that we work in.

662
01:16:12,780 --> 01:16:14,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Continue, please.

663
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:17,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

664
01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:21,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On the Joint Force Planning Program.

665
01:16:22,140 --> 01:16:35,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, 234 plans and programs were accomplished, and for the first semester of this year, there were 117 already accomplished.

666
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:51,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Most of these, Your Honor, are for joint and combined anticipative actions, training exercises, scenario building, and scoping exercises.

667
01:16:52,140 --> 01:17:07,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On operations, Your Honor, the Joint Force Operations Program for operations, 159 were complied with last year out of 182.

668
01:17:07,980 --> 01:17:20,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And most of these plans were not, the unfulfilled portion was due to natural calamities.

669
01:17:20,980 --> 01:17:21,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Natural calamities.

670
01:17:22,140 --> 01:17:33,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That would, of course, necessitate the diversion of the resources to humanitarian assistance and disaster response.

671
01:17:36,340 --> 01:17:43,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This year, Your Honor, we have already completed 54% of our targets as of the first semester.

672
01:17:44,380 --> 01:17:48,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, at the end of the year, we expect to complete 100%.

673
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:50,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Okay.

674
01:17:52,140 --> 01:18:13,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For security operations, of course, Your Honor, in connection with and in cooperation with our civilian law enforcement agencies, there are about 5,900 activities that were covered last year and this year, 3,000, the most important of which are the ASEAN series of engagements.

675
01:18:13,220 --> 01:18:28,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For capability programs, Your Honor, the patients treated by the AFP Medical Center and other station hospitals were 12,000.

676
01:18:29,100 --> 01:18:42,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Accomplishment was 11,000 as of 2025 with 12,000 targets while this year, Your Honor,

677
01:18:42,260 --> 01:18:43,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the

678
01:18:43,220 --> 01:18:51,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: since there was a gap last year, we reduced the target level to 10,000.

679
01:18:52,340 --> 01:18:58,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have already had an accomplishment of more than 50%.

680
01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:12,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ten signed AFP modernization projects are being implemented, so we have 60%, six have already been accomplished for this year.

681
01:19:12,260 --> 01:19:13,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Last year,

682
01:19:13,220 --> 01:19:27,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: last year, there were 10 targets, Your Honor, we accomplished 17 because of the previous year's unfulfilled targets.

683
01:19:29,540 --> 01:19:32,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

684
01:19:34,340 --> 01:19:35,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Matumal yung atin.

685
01:19:38,500 --> 01:19:39,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Natutulog yung atin.

686
01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:40,940
DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Actually,

687
01:19:41,180 --> 01:19:41,800
DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: I want to...

688
01:19:42,340 --> 01:19:42,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I...

689
01:19:43,220 --> 01:19:44,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Naghang pala yung iyo.

690
01:19:44,540 --> 01:19:45,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hindi ko mabasa yun.

691
01:19:47,620 --> 01:19:48,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Naghang yung iyo.

692
01:19:50,380 --> 01:19:51,840
DND Assistant Secretary Romeo N. Dela Cruz: Yes, sir.

693
01:19:55,840 --> 01:20:01,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the government arsenal, Your Honor, 98% is the target this year.

694
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:10,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Last year, we accomplished only 63% of the target because of the unavailability of propellants,

695
01:20:10,220 --> 01:20:12,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the shortage of propellants,

696
01:20:12,380 --> 01:20:16,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and other critical components in the international market.

697
01:20:17,460 --> 01:20:22,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The situation, Your Honor, in the international market now, it is a seller's market.

698
01:20:22,260 --> 01:20:41,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And even though you have fixed contracts, they will willingly pay the liquidated damages and other punitive amounts because of the amounts being offered by other users.

699
01:20:41,700 --> 01:20:46,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Given the several conflicts that are occurring now, both in the Middle East and in Ukraine.

700
01:20:50,040 --> 01:21:02,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Defense and security leaders capacity, Your Honor, 100% of our research papers have been accepted in the same target this year.

701
01:21:02,620 --> 01:21:11,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 33% of 53 senior leaders.

702
01:21:11,700 --> 01:21:15,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This is from the DND and AAP.

703
01:21:15,860 --> 01:21:17,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And may I correct this too?

704
01:21:17,460 --> 01:21:18,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's not only senior leaders.

705
01:21:20,140 --> 01:21:29,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Well, we can say senior leaders too because we opened up the MNSA program to enlisted personnel on the NCO level

706
01:21:29,380 --> 01:21:38,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because their leadership and their critical skills and critical knowledge is just as important as our officer corps.

707
01:21:41,700 --> 01:21:48,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And, Your Honor, there is a growth challenge with the NDCP now

708
01:21:48,260 --> 01:21:59,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because we are in the process of reshaping the curriculum.

709
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:04,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Knowing fully well that the national security is multidimensional.

710
01:22:05,860 --> 01:22:11,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, a fixed paradigm of national security as an academic.

711
01:22:11,700 --> 01:22:13,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And therefore, will not help.

712
01:22:15,260 --> 01:22:27,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Therefore, we continue with faculty development, advancing coordination and cooperation with other high-level research agencies, security agencies.

713
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:34,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Probably, the national security paradigm before worked in an internal security environment.

714
01:22:34,700 --> 01:22:41,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But nowadays, with the different dimensions of conflict.

715
01:22:41,700 --> 01:22:47,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To include cyber conflict and cognitive warfare and who knows what will happen in the future.

716
01:22:47,500 --> 01:22:50,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is not anticipative enough.

717
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:56,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The academic output of the NDCP.

718
01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:03,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The teacher to student ratio is still 1 is to 10.

719
01:23:03,340 --> 01:23:08,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But I still want to know the research output of the institution.

720
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:11,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that is what I keep on putting.

721
01:23:11,700 --> 01:23:12,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that is what I keep on pushing them to be doing.

722
01:23:13,580 --> 01:23:23,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because if they do not publish, they do not produce peer-reviewed publications,

723
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:27,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: then we are not passing our job.

724
01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:32,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We don't pass the test.

725
01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:35,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, next slide.

726
01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:41,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On OCD, Your Honor.

727
01:23:41,700 --> 01:23:55,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: As we said, that 65% of the, we are concentrating right now on response.

728
01:23:57,180 --> 01:24:07,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we also had to change the view of the minimum required standards for local governments.

729
01:24:07,260 --> 01:24:10,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, the Gawad Kalinga Awards.

730
01:24:11,700 --> 01:24:17,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They were even awarding before, awards for more than compliant.

731
01:24:19,460 --> 01:24:26,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But how can you say you're more than compliant when disaster risk reduction is a continuing endeavor?

732
01:24:26,500 --> 01:24:34,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And actually, how can you be more compliant with, for example, an earthquake scenario which nobody knows the outcome?

733
01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:40,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, a more than compliant rating to me is impossible.

734
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:52,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we abolished that standard and asked them to refocus on the ability to coordinate,

735
01:24:53,400 --> 01:25:00,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to exercise leadership in coordination with the different departments and the local government units.

736
01:25:01,980 --> 01:25:09,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, even the training for first responders, Your Honor,

737
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:10,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it should be on a classroom.

738
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:14,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It should be on a clustered basis as we see the disasters now.

739
01:25:14,620 --> 01:25:21,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because the paradigm of first responder coming from the affected community,

740
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:25,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it does not hold water right now.

741
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:34,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because how can they respond when two or three municipalities are subject to stress at the same time?

742
01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:38,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, it needs a different approach.

743
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:39,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And I give an example.

744
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:45,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, for the Ligtas Pinoy Act, where each town should have an evacuation center.

745
01:25:46,580 --> 01:25:53,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We had a very difficult time right now identifying if that is feasible or not.

746
01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:57,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Each town should have an evacuation center.

747
01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:04,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But in an area, perhaps even outside the physical boundaries of that town,

748
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:08,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which can support the evacuees.

749
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:17,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we had the first list of approved areas for the Ligtas Pinoy centers.

750
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:30,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But it will be a continuing challenge for us to identify suitable areas that can accept the quantity of evacuees

751
01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:36,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: should a disaster affect one area.

752
01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:39,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: An example would be in the Negros area.

753
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:41,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ashfall, Your Honor.

754
01:26:42,180 --> 01:26:45,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: About four or five municipalities were affected.

755
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:52,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But the only safe evacuation center would be in another distant municipality.

756
01:26:52,940 --> 01:26:59,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The same area, the same situation with Bicol, when you have a six-kilometer exclusion zone.

757
01:27:00,820 --> 01:27:05,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, that is a dimension which we are working with.

758
01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:09,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we will also report the results to Congress.

759
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:13,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: To refine whatever modifications are needed, Your Honor.

760
01:27:17,860 --> 01:27:23,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The rest of the accomplishments, Your Honor, we met 100% of the targets.

761
01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:28,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

762
01:27:30,820 --> 01:27:36,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For PIVAW, Your Honor, on the veterans' welfare and benefits.

763
01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:37,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I'll take that, yeah.

764
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:39,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 100%.

765
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:46,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 100% of the target was accomplished because these are regular pensions.

766
01:27:47,740 --> 01:27:53,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it is only in the efficiency of the payment.

767
01:27:53,040 --> 01:28:08,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On the veterans' affairs management programs,

768
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:18,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: still, it is a question, Your Honor, of getting the number of bona fide accredited veterans

769
01:28:18,340 --> 01:28:21,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: or their dependents.

770
01:28:22,060 --> 01:28:30,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, 57% of the target was accomplished.

771
01:28:31,060 --> 01:28:33,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This is of particular importance, Your Honor,

772
01:28:33,480 --> 01:28:37,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of a recent phenomenon that,

773
01:28:37,740 --> 01:28:42,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we worked with, with the U.S. government.

774
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:48,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The U.S. government recently gave a grant to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center

775
01:28:48,020 --> 01:28:55,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of the prevalence yet of,

776
01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:58,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: no, the presence, not prevalence,

777
01:28:58,560 --> 01:29:03,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the presence of tuberculosis among our veterans.

778
01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:06,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We are able only to track,

779
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 600,

780
01:29:09,540 --> 01:29:10,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: six per,

781
01:29:10,440 --> 01:29:12,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: how many,

782
01:29:13,420 --> 01:29:18,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: there is a gap of 2,000, I believe,

783
01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:20,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that we need to track.

784
01:29:21,100 --> 01:29:24,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And this will only happen, Your Honor,

785
01:29:24,720 --> 01:29:30,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: if the PIVAW is adequately tracking our veterans.

786
01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:33,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, this PIVAW,

787
01:29:34,180 --> 01:29:35,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: rather than have,

788
01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:39,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: recognition, ceremonies,

789
01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:41,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which are also important,

790
01:29:41,820 --> 01:29:44,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they need to go out in the field right now

791
01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:46,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to scope the number of veterans

792
01:29:46,020 --> 01:29:50,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and to bring them within the VMMC environment

793
01:29:50,780 --> 01:29:55,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so we can adequately track their wellness and their health care.

794
01:29:56,660 --> 01:30:00,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And they have also been tasked to work with

795
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:01,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the VMMC to

796
01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:04,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: build hospices, Your Honor,

797
01:30:04,220 --> 01:30:06,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where our veterans can

798
01:30:06,020 --> 01:30:07,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: retire with dignity.

799
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:09,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: A lot of them,

800
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:11,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: as Senator

801
01:30:11,620 --> 01:30:12,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Lacson knows,

802
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:15,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: have been

803
01:30:15,680 --> 01:30:17,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: constrained

804
01:30:17,340 --> 01:30:19,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to have an extended

805
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:21,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: period of stay in the hospitals,

806
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:23,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: although

807
01:30:23,480 --> 01:30:25,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they do not need medical

808
01:30:25,580 --> 01:30:26,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: care, but they need

809
01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:33,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: geriatric

810
01:30:33,380 --> 01:30:35,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: care. Why? Because

811
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:37,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they have no families and nobody to take

812
01:30:37,620 --> 01:30:39,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: care of them. And

813
01:30:39,440 --> 01:30:41,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it will be heartless for

814
01:30:41,260 --> 01:30:43,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the doctors in the

815
01:30:43,620 --> 01:30:45,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: VMMC to discharge

816
01:30:45,420 --> 01:30:45,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: them.

817
01:30:47,580 --> 01:30:48,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So the

818
01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:51,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: PIVA was tasked to make this

819
01:30:51,660 --> 01:30:52,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a priority.

820
01:30:53,800 --> 01:30:55,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have also

821
01:30:55,260 --> 01:30:56,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: seen

822
01:30:56,720 --> 01:30:58,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and I have witnessed

823
01:30:58,740 --> 01:31:01,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: personally retired

824
01:31:01,440 --> 01:31:02,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: officers

825
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:05,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: who, because of

826
01:31:05,140 --> 01:31:07,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the detachment from military

827
01:31:07,140 --> 01:31:09,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: life, have

828
01:31:09,180 --> 01:31:10,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: lost their

829
01:31:10,380 --> 01:31:12,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: social circle.

830
01:31:13,700 --> 01:31:15,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And a lot of them who

831
01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:16,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: have been afflicted by

832
01:31:16,440 --> 01:31:19,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: age-related diseases

833
01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:21,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: withdraw and

834
01:31:21,140 --> 01:31:21,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: become

835
01:31:21,660 --> 01:31:24,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: you know

836
01:31:24,340 --> 01:31:25,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a

837
01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:28,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are affected and afflicted

838
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:29,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: with self-pity,

839
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:31,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: loss of morale.

840
01:31:32,540 --> 01:31:33,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So they also need

841
01:31:33,700 --> 01:31:36,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: their social

842
01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:36,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: environment

843
01:31:36,900 --> 01:31:40,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to be able to mingle

844
01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:42,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and to keep their mental

845
01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:43,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: wellness intact.

846
01:31:44,480 --> 01:31:46,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So this in

847
01:31:46,140 --> 01:31:47,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: connection with the hospices

848
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:50,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so that we can also support

849
01:31:50,340 --> 01:31:51,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: them that

850
01:31:51,700 --> 01:31:53,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in the

851
01:31:53,940 --> 01:31:56,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: most vulnerable period of their

852
01:31:56,300 --> 01:31:58,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: time when they need us

853
01:31:58,300 --> 01:32:00,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: most, we can preserve their

854
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:02,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: dignity, your honor, just like

855
01:32:02,340 --> 01:32:04,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: they do in Korea for that matter.

856
01:32:08,560 --> 01:32:09,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

857
01:32:12,340 --> 01:32:14,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So for veterans, your honor,

858
01:32:14,720 --> 01:32:16,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the accomplishment

859
01:32:16,880 --> 01:32:19,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: as you see is 9,000 patients

860
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: treated, but this is only 6%

861
01:32:21,200 --> 01:32:22,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because it is in Manila.

862
01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:26,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And the design now,

863
01:32:26,300 --> 01:32:28,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: there is a veterans health service

864
01:32:28,260 --> 01:32:29,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that's being

865
01:32:29,140 --> 01:32:32,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: before it was

866
01:32:32,540 --> 01:32:34,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: solely the veterans memorial

867
01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:36,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: medical center as

868
01:32:36,500 --> 01:32:37,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the sole

869
01:32:37,700 --> 01:32:40,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: focus of medical

870
01:32:40,460 --> 01:32:41,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: care for veterans.

871
01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:44,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That situation is untenable

872
01:32:44,220 --> 01:32:46,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because rather than

873
01:32:46,240 --> 01:32:48,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: prioritizing

874
01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: veterans wellness,

875
01:32:50,480 --> 01:32:52,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: you prioritize a physical

876
01:32:52,140 --> 01:32:53,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hospital.

877
01:32:53,580 --> 01:32:56,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So it does not serve the

878
01:32:56,220 --> 01:32:57,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: purpose, your honor.

879
01:32:57,460 --> 01:32:59,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we refocus

880
01:32:59,900 --> 01:33:02,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the programs and plans

881
01:33:02,020 --> 01:33:04,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to have

882
01:33:04,700 --> 01:33:06,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the welfare of the veteran

883
01:33:06,420 --> 01:33:08,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: first and how we can

884
01:33:08,240 --> 01:33:10,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: service that need rather than

885
01:33:10,420 --> 01:33:12,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to maintain a hospital

886
01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:14,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: alone, which

887
01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:16,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was the focus of the VMMC.

888
01:33:17,100 --> 01:33:18,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So these targets

889
01:33:18,480 --> 01:33:20,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we hope to increase with

890
01:33:20,380 --> 01:33:22,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the number, your honor, of outpatients

891
01:33:22,900 --> 01:33:24,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: treated

892
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:26,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and with the

893
01:33:26,220 --> 01:33:30,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: establishment

894
01:33:30,660 --> 01:33:33,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of new

895
01:33:33,060 --> 01:33:34,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: clinics where we can

896
01:33:34,740 --> 01:33:36,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: diagnose and treat

897
01:33:36,500 --> 01:33:39,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our veterans throughout the Philippines.

898
01:33:39,940 --> 01:33:41,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are three already

899
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:43,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in existence now.

900
01:33:45,380 --> 01:33:47,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So that they do not need

901
01:33:47,060 --> 01:33:49,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to come to Manila anymore.

902
01:33:50,320 --> 01:33:52,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Or to go to private medical centers

903
01:33:52,900 --> 01:33:54,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of which the government

904
01:33:54,660 --> 01:33:56,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: has to reimburse.

905
01:33:56,220 --> 01:33:58,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If the public hospitals

906
01:33:58,420 --> 01:33:59,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: cannot take care of them.

907
01:34:00,680 --> 01:34:02,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have three and the reason

908
01:34:02,380 --> 01:34:04,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for three alone, your honor,

909
01:34:04,380 --> 01:34:06,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is hard to find people

910
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:08,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to staff the centers.

911
01:34:09,900 --> 01:34:11,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we continue

912
01:34:11,300 --> 01:34:12,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the recruitment drive

913
01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:15,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and to establish them

914
01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:16,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where we can

915
01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:18,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in collocated with

916
01:34:18,900 --> 01:34:20,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our station hospitals

917
01:34:20,460 --> 01:34:23,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and we want

918
01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:25,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to build an ecosystem on that

919
01:34:25,220 --> 01:34:26,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: also for the veterans.

920
01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:27,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The hospice, somewhere else,

921
01:34:27,860 --> 01:34:29,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and then the social homes

922
01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:30,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for our veterans.

923
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:35,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Eighty-three percent

924
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:36,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are the target, your honor,

925
01:34:36,400 --> 01:34:37,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of discharges.

926
01:34:37,560 --> 01:34:38,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Once again, your honor,

927
01:34:38,560 --> 01:34:40,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I have to point out

928
01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:42,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that the last time I reviewed

929
01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:45,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the average hospitalization

930
01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:46,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was 16 days.

931
01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:49,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because of the fact

932
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:55,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that there are extended stay veterans

933
01:34:55,200 --> 01:34:56,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: who do not have

934
01:34:56,160 --> 01:34:58,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: any where else to go.

935
01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:05,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Financial accomplishments, next slide.

936
01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:22,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For 2025, your honor,

937
01:35:22,320 --> 01:35:25,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the appropriations were 448.

938
01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:29,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Allotment was 443.

939
01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:32,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 414 was obligated.

940
01:35:32,200 --> 01:35:36,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 330 were disbursed.

941
01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:40,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 29 was unobligated

942
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:43,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and 83 unpaid.

943
01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:46,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So obligation versus allotment

944
01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:48,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was 93 percent

945
01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:51,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and payment versus obligation

946
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:55,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was 79 percent.

947
01:35:55,760 --> 01:35:56,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

948
01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:01,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For 2026,

949
01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:06,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the first semester, your honor,

950
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:09,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the appropriation for this year

951
01:36:09,700 --> 01:36:12,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was 489.

952
01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:14,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Allotment, 406.

953
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:17,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Obligated is 191 billion.

954
01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:20,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Disbursements, 163

955
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:21,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for the first semester.

956
01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Unobligated was 214.

957
01:36:25,760 --> 01:36:28,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and unpaid was 28.

958
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:34,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, obligation versus allotment, 47% for the first semester,

959
01:36:35,980 --> 01:36:40,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and disbursement versus obligation, around 85% from last year's 70.

960
01:36:42,440 --> 01:36:43,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

961
01:36:48,340 --> 01:36:50,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For comparatives, Your Honor,

962
01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:54,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is the source also of the year-on-year,

963
01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:58,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which probably does not reflect current needs.

964
01:37:01,260 --> 01:37:05,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: What is important here is we will see, Your Honor,

965
01:37:05,660 --> 01:37:15,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that there is an increasing trend of both obligations and allotments.

966
01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:19,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Our challenge during the start, Your Honor,

967
01:37:19,880 --> 01:37:23,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was the low approved budget system

968
01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:33,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and the feelings for items that we needed to acquire.

969
01:37:34,320 --> 01:37:39,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And with the inflation catching up, particularly for defense material,

970
01:37:40,300 --> 01:37:44,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we could not obligate the amounts.

971
01:37:45,780 --> 01:37:49,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it would have been a waste of taxpayers' money to do so.

972
01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:53,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And I discourage the practice of...

973
01:37:54,080 --> 01:38:02,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: rushing to obligate just to satisfy the 100% obligation rate.

974
01:38:02,260 --> 01:38:09,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I felt that, you know, let's just give a good reason why it was not obligated.

975
01:38:11,020 --> 01:38:13,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we refuse to obligate.

976
01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:21,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I particularly refuse to obligate if we're just going to end up with something that is...

977
01:38:21,260 --> 01:38:22,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is...

978
01:38:22,260 --> 01:38:23,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is...

979
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:28,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: something not optimal for us.

980
01:38:29,320 --> 01:38:31,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But it has...

981
01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:38,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: particularly for the 2024 and 2025,

982
01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:48,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: when there have been very major changes in the nature of the equipment that we need.

983
01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:53,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we had significant lessons learned...

984
01:38:54,080 --> 01:39:00,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for the supportability and integration and interoperability of platforms.

985
01:39:00,840 --> 01:39:09,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we required full sustainment to come with acquisitions.

986
01:39:09,940 --> 01:39:16,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And most importantly, guaranteed supply chains and guaranteed interoperability and upgrades.

987
01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:23,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Plus, we required a reserve of at least 30 days of munitions.

988
01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:23,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We...

989
01:39:24,620 --> 01:39:25,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and every platform that...

990
01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:29,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we notionally will acquire.

991
01:39:32,100 --> 01:39:41,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We also had the experience or honor of purchasing bare platforms and the weaponry to follow.

992
01:39:42,440 --> 01:39:47,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I do not think that is a proper way to go, which was why we stopped the practice.

993
01:39:47,900 --> 01:39:52,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, this results in increased acquisition costs.

994
01:39:54,080 --> 01:40:02,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: beforehand because as we know prices just keep on going up so you might as well lock it in

995
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:07,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at one time and get the whole package guaranteed

996
01:40:10,880 --> 01:40:23,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: this also has resulted in the abc's being and being too low for us so it is a continuing

997
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:32,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: challenge your honor with the uh with the greater costs of uh the essential platforms we need

998
01:40:32,880 --> 01:40:40,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of course we have also been investing in mitigation hybrids and you know evolutionary

999
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:48,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: uh platforms however this is part and parcel of a mix that you will need to have

1000
01:40:49,680 --> 01:40:53,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: once again i reiterate our gaps are infrastructure

1001
01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:57,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: basic platforms and

1002
01:41:00,960 --> 01:41:07,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: logistics facilities and support facilities that we will need on a resilient basis

1003
01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:09,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: next slide

1004
01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:15,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: issues and concerns your honor uh next slide

1005
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:23,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: uh the uh 21 line items we

1006
01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:28,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we submitted just to complete programs only three have been approved

1007
01:41:31,680 --> 01:41:35,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but this is reflective your honor of the

1008
01:41:43,120 --> 01:41:50,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: consideration of infrastructure that we need to underscore given the fact that

1009
01:41:50,480 --> 01:41:54,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: uh we were deprived of

1010
01:41:58,160 --> 01:42:04,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: infrastructure that were designed really for military use that have been converted

1011
01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:27,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, the unfunded, Your Honor, comes out to about 87, but I do not know after the House, Your Honor, would have submitted to the Senate their version, how much of this would have been answered for.

1012
01:42:30,140 --> 01:42:31,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide.

1013
01:42:31,060 --> 01:43:01,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the modernization, Your Honor, minimum of 70 just for re-Horizon 3, but we should see there is still Horizon 2 projects that need to be completed, but we also scrapped, repurposed some of them because a lot of Horizon 2 projects are already obsolete.

1014
01:43:01,060 --> 01:43:17,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But this does not include, we have not yet come out, Your Honor, with the recalibration of Horizon 3, which we need to submit to the Senate for the President for approval.

1015
01:43:17,100 --> 01:43:30,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The program of 50 billion, Your Honor.

1016
01:43:31,060 --> 01:44:00,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If we obligate and contract out all of these, we will need 20 billion more from the current 50 billion that is being proposed just to pay for the continuing multi-year continuing obligational authority, which is why also our obligation rate is low.

1017
01:44:01,060 --> 01:44:11,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If we obligate for that year, our payments would balloon and it will be beyond the modernization.

1018
01:44:31,060 --> 01:44:41,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, Your Honor.

1019
01:44:41,380 --> 01:44:45,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With the indulgence of the Committee, I will move to the next slide, Your Honor.

1020
01:44:56,580 --> 01:44:59,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This one, Your Honor, we already included it last year.

1021
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:17,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In the absence of the amendatory law for the presidential decree, Your Honor, limiting foreign borrowings for defense to 300 million U.S. dollars.

1022
01:45:18,940 --> 01:45:25,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We have a bill already pending, Your Honor, to take that limitation out.

1023
01:45:25,600 --> 01:45:36,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It allows contracting for foreign loans, grants, and other credit facilities.

1024
01:45:37,380 --> 01:45:48,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, under the control of the Secretary of Finance, Your Honor, we fully understand that this has to be subject to fiscal space limitations.

1025
01:45:48,780 --> 01:45:54,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we fully accept the

1026
01:45:55,600 --> 01:45:59,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: seniority and the primacy of the Secretary of Finance in these matters.

1027
01:46:01,060 --> 01:46:04,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So it has been enacted last year.

1028
01:46:04,420 --> 01:46:09,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We did not avail of it, Your Honor, because of the mechanism with the Secretary of Finance.

1029
01:46:12,920 --> 01:46:20,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we appeal for the same flexibility to be enacted this year.

1030
01:46:23,300 --> 01:46:25,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In anticipation also, Your Honor.

1031
01:46:25,600 --> 01:46:31,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In anticipation also, Your Honor, of the repeal of the 300 million dollar limitation.

1032
01:46:34,060 --> 01:46:36,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is a continuing provision, Your Honor.

1033
01:46:38,420 --> 01:46:46,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we have not availed of it because knowing fiscal space limitations.

1034
01:46:49,640 --> 01:46:50,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Next slide, please.

1035
01:46:52,260 --> 01:46:53,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: This is the last slide, Your Honor.

1036
01:46:53,840 --> 01:46:55,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We shall be open to questions.

1037
01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:58,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: From Your Honors.

1038
01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:03,580
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, Secretary Teodoro.

1039
01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:09,040
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: But I will ask my colleagues to go and propound questions first.

1040
01:47:09,120 --> 01:47:14,740
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: But before them, meron lang ano, may patanong lang yung ano, naghahabol kasi mag-media natin.

1041
01:47:14,820 --> 01:47:15,320
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Deadline, no?

1042
01:47:15,860 --> 01:47:17,200
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Singit lang ako ng dalawa.

1043
01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:21,660
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Sec, habang nagpe-present kayo ng budget kanina, lumabas sa balita.

1044
01:47:21,660 --> 01:47:24,640
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Now, allow me to quote the statement of the DFA Secretary,

1045
01:47:24,640 --> 01:47:26,020
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: the Department of Foreign Affairs.

1046
01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:32,120
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Summoned Chinese Ambassador Jing Kuan on October 19 to convey the Philippine serious concern and strong objection.

1047
01:47:33,140 --> 01:47:37,060
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: This October 15 public statement which conveyed the threat to use of force.

1048
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:42,800
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So ano ba ang treatment ng DND sa mga ganitong statement ng isang foreign diplomat?

1049
01:47:42,980 --> 01:47:47,220
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I know that both of us are subject to ano now, no?

1050
01:47:47,420 --> 01:47:53,200
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Being attacked by, I don't know kung itong mga ito, mga tools to.

1051
01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:53,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I don't know.

1052
01:47:53,980 --> 01:47:54,140
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: But.

1053
01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:57,960
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: We are both, we just want to make, we just want to make it clear.

1054
01:47:58,100 --> 01:48:05,400
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: But that both of us, me and myself and my, the Secretary [unclear], we both studied in Xavier School, both studied Chinese.

1055
01:48:05,960 --> 01:48:10,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And I'm sure that he, we love our Chinese schoolmates and classmates.

1056
01:48:11,660 --> 01:48:18,040
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So it is not the Chinese people just to be straight at the, to set the record straight.

1057
01:48:18,040 --> 01:48:20,000
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: It's the expansionist.

1058
01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:27,520
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: It's the stock of Xi Jinping's government.

1059
01:48:27,720 --> 01:48:38,800
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So probably, I'm sure just quickly, Secretary Guibo, how does the DND treat this kind of public statement that convey a threat of use of force from the Chinese ambassador?

1060
01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:52,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, consistent with our earlier pronouncements, number one, we refute all allegations made by the ambassador that we are troublemakers and are provoking.

1061
01:48:53,560 --> 01:48:54,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We rate.

1062
01:48:54,640 --> 01:49:07,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We reiterate, nulit namin, Your Honor, ang aming pag-suporta at pag-taguyod sa UNCLOS and the UN Charter.

1063
01:49:09,680 --> 01:49:18,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pangalawa, pinahiwatig na po natin ang ating pag-object sa kanyang pananalita.

1064
01:49:18,660 --> 01:49:22,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi hindi lang naman isang beses sinabi niyang you lose.

1065
01:49:23,020 --> 01:49:24,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yung pinoportray po ngayon.

1066
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:31,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ay yung we can use force if we want, but we may win easily.

1067
01:49:32,100 --> 01:49:40,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meron pong isa na sinabi siya na okay, you cut military communications, but you lose.

1068
01:49:42,700 --> 01:49:48,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So ibig po sabihin, may pagbabantana po doon.

1069
01:49:48,660 --> 01:49:52,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Dalawang beses po niyang sinabi po yan.

1070
01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:54,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ngayon po.

1071
01:49:54,640 --> 01:50:14,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pinatawag na po siya ng DFA, we have to wait, Your Honor, for developments which, of course, the President or the DFA will message to the public at an appropriate time.

1072
01:50:14,780 --> 01:50:24,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero maliwanag po ang ating pagtutol, hindi lang dito sa statement niya, kung hindi, the more important thing, yung kanilang false narrative.

1073
01:50:24,640 --> 01:50:39,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: May nine-dash line, may meron silang jurisdiction, pangatlo, yung kanila pong latest narrative na ang Batanes ay part ng China.

1074
01:50:39,940 --> 01:50:49,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi meron na daw silang karapatan na mag-operate sa mga karagatan na nagpapalibot sa Batanes.

1075
01:50:49,100 --> 01:50:54,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yan po ay matinding tinututulan at aming pong sinusubukan.

1076
01:50:54,640 --> 01:50:57,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Na i-deter yung ganyang klaseng mga behavior.

1077
01:50:58,460 --> 01:50:58,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Salamat po.

1078
01:51:00,440 --> 01:51:01,920
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, Secretary.

1079
01:51:02,660 --> 01:51:07,740
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Much has been said over the weekend, and I think this is an opportunity to clarify where we stand.

1080
01:51:08,460 --> 01:51:13,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we believe in diplomacy, but we also believe in developing good relations with our neighbors.

1081
01:51:13,360 --> 01:51:16,920
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Pero siyempre, dapat may respeto sa isa't isa.

1082
01:51:17,180 --> 01:51:24,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Medyo hindi na maganda ang kanyang mga aksyon at mga pananalita

1083
01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:29,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: na may halong pananakot.

1084
01:51:30,020 --> 01:51:33,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Very hostile and very undiplomatic.

1085
01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:38,220
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we would like to support our Secretary also.

1086
01:51:38,220 --> 01:51:42,220
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Your stand also when you were in Singapore.

1087
01:51:42,940 --> 01:51:48,840
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I'd like to commend you for that, for being firm and steadfast in saying that we will protect.

1088
01:51:48,960 --> 01:51:52,940
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we are just protecting our sovereignty and our territorial integrity.

1089
01:51:53,760 --> 01:51:54,260
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So...

1090
01:51:54,260 --> 01:51:55,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you, Secretary.

1091
01:51:55,640 --> 01:51:56,180
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Thank you for that.

1092
01:51:56,520 --> 01:52:00,220
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Probably our Senate President would like to ask questions.

1093
01:52:01,480 --> 01:52:05,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Mr. President, I was watching the hearing.

1094
01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:09,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I was waiting actually in my room.

1095
01:52:09,100 --> 01:52:14,680
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And I saw Senator Lacson was waiting here way, way advanced than both of us.

1096
01:52:14,920 --> 01:52:21,020
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So I will yield to Senator Lacson who came in first before we both came in.

1097
01:52:21,700 --> 01:52:24,200
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yes, Senator Lacson will now propound.

1098
01:52:24,260 --> 01:52:25,640
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: His questions and concerns.

1099
01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:26,120
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yeah.

1100
01:52:26,240 --> 01:52:28,060
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Thank you, Mr. President and Mr. Chairman.

1101
01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:32,340
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yung isang item dito, yung unused appropriations.

1102
01:52:32,340 --> 01:52:39,540
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Of course, when we speak of unused appropriations, it is the total of unobligated at saka unreleased.

1103
01:52:40,020 --> 01:52:47,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: For 2024, pag pinagsama yung dalawa, nasa mga 32 billion.

1104
01:52:49,140 --> 01:52:50,160
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 32 million.

1105
01:52:50,780 --> 01:52:50,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Yeah.

1106
01:52:51,420 --> 01:52:51,700
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Billion.

1107
01:52:51,880 --> 01:52:53,060
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: 32 billion.

1108
01:52:53,580 --> 01:52:54,100
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: 2022.

1109
01:52:54,260 --> 01:52:58,240
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Wala na ito kasi under the continuing appropriations, 2 years lang eh.

1110
01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:02,020
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: In 2025, nasa mga 31 billion.

1111
01:53:03,140 --> 01:53:05,900
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Again, unobligated and unreleased.

1112
01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:10,260
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So what would account for the...

1113
01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:19,080
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I think this is huge numbers, 31 billion in unused appropriations for 2025.

1114
01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:21,940
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: What would account, sir,

1115
01:53:21,940 --> 01:53:22,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are the

1116
01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:28,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: inflationary pressures dun sa mga kinakailangan po natin i-acquire.

1117
01:53:28,760 --> 01:53:41,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At dun naman po sa limited na capital outlay, dahil po sa costings ng materials, umaakyat po yung halaga.

1118
01:53:41,740 --> 01:53:42,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kaya po, kung...

1119
01:53:43,860 --> 01:53:52,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pangantlo po, yung pag ginamit yung ibang items po dun sa unobligated,

1120
01:53:52,100 --> 01:53:54,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pag inobligate po, tataas.

1121
01:53:54,260 --> 01:53:57,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Tapos pa po yung MICA natin sa amount ng modernization.

1122
01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:06,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, yung fiscal constraints po, and yung pag-costing po ng mga horizons,

1123
01:54:08,120 --> 01:54:11,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: gumagapang po yung presyo halos araw-araw.

1124
01:54:11,940 --> 01:54:15,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, pag may nakita...

1125
01:54:15,000 --> 01:54:18,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Unang-una po, baka dun po sa approved bid ceiling kasi,

1126
01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:21,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: doon po sa mga reglamento natin,

1127
01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:23,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi na po...

1128
01:54:24,260 --> 01:54:27,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ayun sa presyo na gusto natin.

1129
01:54:30,240 --> 01:54:40,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pangalawa po, yung ating pong patakaran na kailangan po yung platforms are fully weaponized

1130
01:54:40,220 --> 01:54:44,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and provided with reserves kasi yun po ang nakikita.

1131
01:54:45,660 --> 01:54:51,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Actually, very, very conservative yung reserves natin na 30 days na munitions per platform.

1132
01:54:51,720 --> 01:54:53,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero alam po natin na humahaba.

1133
01:54:54,260 --> 01:54:57,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At hindi na po yung panahon na kailangan po natin na reserba.

1134
01:54:58,100 --> 01:55:02,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yun po ang primary reason po from 2024.

1135
01:55:02,980 --> 01:55:06,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because I remember, at the end of 2023 po,

1136
01:55:06,560 --> 01:55:08,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: doon pumasok ang ReHorizon 3.

1137
01:55:08,900 --> 01:55:12,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi nag-revisa po kami ng kinakailangan, kaya nagbago po ito.

1138
01:55:14,300 --> 01:55:17,780
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, the next relevant question would be,

1139
01:55:18,100 --> 01:55:19,700
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: how do we resolve this issue?

1140
01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:21,600
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi year in, year out,

1141
01:55:21,600 --> 01:55:23,640
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: ito lagi yung nagiging problem.

1142
01:55:24,260 --> 01:55:27,640
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: We're trying to catch up, but it seems that we are not catching up.

1143
01:55:28,660 --> 01:55:36,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sir, there should really be a determination to have continuous defense spending increases

1144
01:55:36,020 --> 01:55:42,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which will impact the total fiscal picture of the government.

1145
01:55:43,100 --> 01:55:45,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I will give an example, Your Honor.

1146
01:55:45,100 --> 01:55:53,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang Singapore from day one ng panganak niya in 1965 or 66,

1147
01:55:53,540 --> 01:55:54,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 6%.

1148
01:55:54,260 --> 01:55:59,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ng GDP at the minimum ang ginagastos po nila.

1149
01:55:59,700 --> 01:56:04,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Tayo po ay sa core defense spending, wala pa po sa dos.

1150
01:56:05,160 --> 01:56:07,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Nasasakal na po yung budget natin.

1151
01:56:08,200 --> 01:56:14,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think it should be a determination, Your Honor,

1152
01:56:14,480 --> 01:56:18,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na we raise the amount through financing

1153
01:56:18,760 --> 01:56:21,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because if we make a determination,

1154
01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:23,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: nagagastusin lang talaga ito.

1155
01:56:23,380 --> 01:56:24,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: On the future,

1156
01:56:24,260 --> 01:56:25,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for generations,

1157
01:56:25,940 --> 01:56:26,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: mabuti pa,

1158
01:56:27,400 --> 01:56:30,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: umpisahan na natin ang tama sa ngayon

1159
01:56:30,180 --> 01:56:33,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kesa sa pamahal ng pamahal o pasikip ng pasikip ito.

1160
01:56:34,700 --> 01:56:38,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, I think it is a macroeconomic problem

1161
01:56:38,960 --> 01:56:41,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that has to be solved macroeconomically.

1162
01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:43,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pangalawa naman po,

1163
01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: nile-leverage din po natin ang alliances natin

1164
01:56:47,900 --> 01:56:51,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: katulad ng official security assistance ng Japan

1165
01:56:51,020 --> 01:56:54,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na 200 million kada taon na US dollars.

1166
01:56:54,260 --> 01:56:57,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At FMF financing sa US

1167
01:56:57,700 --> 01:57:03,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at sa iba pa pong partners sa Australia at sa Canada in the future.

1168
01:57:03,700 --> 01:57:08,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero hindi ito substitute po talaga.

1169
01:57:08,360 --> 01:57:10,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And I see your point, Your Honor.

1170
01:57:10,900 --> 01:57:15,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think it will go beyond my mandate

1171
01:57:15,500 --> 01:57:21,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to view a solution to this problem.

1172
01:57:21,940 --> 01:57:24,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The acquisition,

1173
01:57:24,140 --> 01:57:28,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the avenues of getting the funds,

1174
01:57:29,580 --> 01:57:31,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we can probably remediate,

1175
01:57:32,060 --> 01:57:35,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but the repayment is the problem

1176
01:57:35,460 --> 01:57:37,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which transcends the D&D.

1177
01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:44,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We are really reflecting the realities

1178
01:57:44,420 --> 01:57:48,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the costs that we need.

1179
01:57:49,120 --> 01:57:50,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At the end of the day,

1180
01:57:50,180 --> 01:57:51,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it's a political decision

1181
01:57:51,400 --> 01:57:53,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: whether you fund this

1182
01:57:53,060 --> 01:57:53,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: versus,

1183
01:57:53,580 --> 01:57:55,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: versus something else.

1184
01:57:55,020 --> 01:57:56,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because it's really a zero-sum game.

1185
01:57:57,540 --> 01:57:59,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There's no denying it.

1186
01:58:03,580 --> 01:58:05,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That's as best as I can answer

1187
01:58:05,940 --> 01:58:07,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our Vice Chairperson.

1188
01:58:08,720 --> 01:58:10,300
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

1189
01:58:10,560 --> 01:58:12,180
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Before I move on to another topic,

1190
01:58:12,300 --> 01:58:13,520
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I'd like to find out from COA,

1191
01:58:14,060 --> 01:58:17,280
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: are there major procurement issues

1192
01:58:17,280 --> 01:58:20,520
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: that should merit our attention

1193
01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:22,160
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: regarding the D&D?

1194
01:58:23,580 --> 01:58:26,540
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

1195
01:58:26,540 --> 01:58:27,460
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: Thank you.

1196
01:58:27,460 --> 01:58:28,560
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: Good afternoon, Sir, Your Honor.

1197
01:58:29,260 --> 01:58:31,720
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: For the D&D OSEC, Sir,

1198
01:58:31,880 --> 01:58:33,060
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: in which I am the supervising...

1199
01:58:33,060 --> 01:58:33,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Not just the OSEC,

1200
01:58:34,020 --> 01:58:35,620
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: the establishment.

1201
01:58:37,140 --> 01:58:38,800
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: May I call on the other

1202
01:58:38,800 --> 01:58:40,140
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: supervising auditor, Sir?

1203
01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:41,160
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yeah, please.

1204
01:58:42,300 --> 01:58:45,140
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: For the Armed Forces of the Philippines,

1205
01:58:46,220 --> 01:58:47,700
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: the General Headquarters.

1206
01:58:49,340 --> 01:58:49,660
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: May I?

1207
01:58:49,660 --> 01:58:50,980
COA Supervising Auditor Rosana A. Alconcel: Thank you.

1208
01:58:53,580 --> 01:59:09,600
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kaya lang ako concerned kasi so many years ago, same budget deliberation sa DND, meron kami nakitang COA issue na 10 years na hindi pa na-deliver, laging in transit.

1209
01:59:09,600 --> 01:59:36,920
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So ang tanong ni Senator Enrile noon, ang tagal naman mag-deliver yan, 10 years pa. Every year, recurring yung issue being raised by COA. So hindi na na-deliver sa end user. So these are the issues that I'm talking about. Kung meron mga parallel or similar issues na dapat i-attend or maybe pwede nang burahin sa libro nyo kasi 10 years, hindi pa dumarating eh.

1210
01:59:39,600 --> 01:59:59,860
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: Good afternoon everyone, Your Honor. Regarding po dun sa deliveries, wala naman po tayong question about po dun sa actual delivery but more on documentation. And ongoing naman po yung retrieval ng mga documents. Yun nga po nandun po tayo sa 10 years.

1211
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:05,640
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: But, however, yung ongoing coordination naman po is currently conducted po.

1212
02:00:05,880 --> 02:00:08,940
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Any other specific issues that you can share with us, with the committee?

1213
02:00:09,640 --> 02:00:09,980
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: Ano naman?

1214
02:00:10,540 --> 02:00:11,140
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: Ano po.

1215
02:00:11,860 --> 02:00:12,720
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, totoo yan ah?

1216
02:00:12,860 --> 02:00:13,360
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: Yes po.

1217
02:00:13,740 --> 02:00:13,980
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Okay.

1218
02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:14,820
COA Supervising Auditor Norina Rose L. Yao: Thank you.

1219
02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:28,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Doon sa malay na foreign influence and interference, yung security sector, meron ba tayong data and substantiated reports?

1220
02:00:28,040 --> 02:00:35,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Of actual malign interference by foreign jurisdictions against our country?

1221
02:00:35,680 --> 02:00:42,700
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Considering na hindi pa natin ipasa yung amendment ng decades-old anti-espionage law?

1222
02:00:43,480 --> 02:00:46,860
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, how do we confront this kind of a situation?

1223
02:00:47,860 --> 02:00:57,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sir, we can only confront it now if there is a predicate crime that has been committed.

1224
02:00:57,740 --> 02:00:57,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Or is...

1225
02:00:58,040 --> 02:00:59,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's in the process of being committed.

1226
02:01:00,580 --> 02:01:14,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And what we have seen so far is on the economic sabotage aspect, like money laundering, human trafficking aspect also, Your Honor.

1227
02:01:14,400 --> 02:01:25,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And environmental standards plus fake citizenships.

1228
02:01:26,980 --> 02:01:27,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, on the...

1229
02:01:28,040 --> 02:01:37,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Activities, actually, sir, that will be maligned, we have information.

1230
02:01:37,860 --> 02:01:46,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, substantiated information is quite difficult given the constraints that we have.

1231
02:01:47,000 --> 02:01:57,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Particularly for the connections between influencer and influence.

1232
02:01:58,040 --> 02:01:59,840
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Political influence, ano?

1233
02:02:00,180 --> 02:02:01,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Political, sir, and others.

1234
02:02:01,740 --> 02:02:03,580
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: That's part of the malign interference, eh?

1235
02:02:03,620 --> 02:02:04,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1236
02:02:04,300 --> 02:02:13,320
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yung covert operations na influencing, you know, even the mga GNC, hindi ba?

1237
02:02:13,560 --> 02:02:13,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1238
02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:15,460
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Through social media and all.

1239
02:02:15,460 --> 02:02:21,800
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Now, what has happened to the arrests conducted by, I think, the NBI, you know?

1240
02:02:22,980 --> 02:02:27,460
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: By foreign agents conducting surveillance?

1241
02:02:28,040 --> 02:02:32,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Surveillance operations sa near Camp Aguinaldo, and then also sa Comelec.

1242
02:02:32,620 --> 02:02:38,320
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: We asked this during the first committee hearing of the anti-espionage law, yung bill.

1243
02:02:38,560 --> 02:02:38,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1244
02:02:39,620 --> 02:02:41,440
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, walang feedback, eh?

1245
02:02:41,900 --> 02:02:49,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sir, on the recent disruption operation, it was a Pogo operation.

1246
02:02:50,820 --> 02:02:53,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We are still exploiting the recovery.

1247
02:02:53,800 --> 02:02:56,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But the important thing is that the...

1248
02:02:58,040 --> 02:03:00,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hub was closed down.

1249
02:03:01,320 --> 02:03:08,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And about more or less a hundred were taken by the BI.

1250
02:03:08,700 --> 02:03:16,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, they are awaiting deportation proceedings.

1251
02:03:16,700 --> 02:03:26,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think deportation proceedings now are the most effective way of dealing with the persons apprehended.

1252
02:03:27,460 --> 02:03:27,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Unless...

1253
02:03:28,040 --> 02:03:29,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, they are principals.

1254
02:03:30,120 --> 02:03:33,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because if they are subjected to judicial processes,

1255
02:03:35,500 --> 02:03:42,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: somehow, sometimes, they are able to continue the activities.

1256
02:03:43,920 --> 02:03:48,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's better that they are gone unless they are principals.

1257
02:03:48,240 --> 02:03:50,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, Your Honor Alice Go,

1258
02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:55,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which was a cut-and-dried case insofar as we're concerned.

1259
02:03:55,320 --> 02:03:58,000
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: It had nothing to do with the malign interference or...

1260
02:03:58,120 --> 02:03:58,940
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Espionage operations.

1261
02:03:59,160 --> 02:04:01,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We are still in the process, sir, of...

1262
02:04:01,860 --> 02:04:03,000
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Hindi pa na-validate.

1263
02:04:03,260 --> 02:04:03,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hindi pa sir na-validate.

1264
02:04:03,620 --> 02:04:05,820
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So far, Pogo yung nakita niyong motive.

1265
02:04:05,820 --> 02:04:06,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So far, Pogo, sir.

1266
02:04:07,280 --> 02:04:09,660
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Pero ang location niya nakakapagtaka.

1267
02:04:10,600 --> 02:04:19,520
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Katulad, parang yung Pogo na na-disrupt sa likod ng DFA noong 2023 or 2024.

1268
02:04:21,640 --> 02:04:26,240
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: May analysis na doon sa equipment, surveillance equipment that were confiscated.

1269
02:04:26,240 --> 02:04:27,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ginagawa pa sa kasuluku yan, sir.

1270
02:04:28,040 --> 02:04:28,960
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Matagal na yun, ah.

1271
02:04:29,660 --> 02:04:31,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Last week lang yata, sir.

1272
02:04:31,180 --> 02:04:35,220
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: No, no. Recent. I think this was one or two years ago.

1273
02:04:35,540 --> 02:04:41,780
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I was referring to the arrests made by, I think, NBI yata or PNP.

1274
02:04:42,840 --> 02:04:45,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I'm not sure about that, Your Honor.

1275
02:04:45,440 --> 02:04:49,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I think close coordination should be made with the Armed Forces Intelligence.

1276
02:04:49,620 --> 02:04:50,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1277
02:04:50,420 --> 02:04:53,280
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: This could involve national security.

1278
02:04:53,280 --> 02:04:55,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, Your Honor, one constraint.

1279
02:04:56,020 --> 02:04:57,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Assuming that there is...

1280
02:04:58,040 --> 02:05:20,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sometimes, what we have encountered in cases that we want to follow up is that to disrupt, to exploit a computer or a device would need a data warrant, another legal proceeding.

1281
02:05:20,580 --> 02:05:26,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, I will find out, Your Honor, about the status kasi marami na po eh.

1282
02:05:26,780 --> 02:05:27,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang interesting...

1283
02:05:28,040 --> 02:05:30,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang interesting thing po namin ay tumigil yung operation.

1284
02:05:31,560 --> 02:05:40,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Katulad po nung ibang mga na-disrupt natin, hindi naman lang yung fake na or substandard na ginagawa.

1285
02:05:40,180 --> 02:05:43,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kung hindi may [unclear] ito eh, nalabas-pasok ang...

1286
02:05:44,380 --> 02:05:45,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Matigil lang po yun.

1287
02:05:47,280 --> 02:05:51,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Initially, ay one half of the problem solved.

1288
02:05:51,480 --> 02:05:57,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi hindi na pwedeng gamitin yung lugar nalabas-pasok ang kung sino.

1289
02:05:58,040 --> 02:06:02,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, about the devices, Your Honor, I will find out, Your Honor.

1290
02:06:03,860 --> 02:06:11,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Those arrests that I was referring to, nangyari last year eh, near Comelec and in the vicinity of Camp Aguinaldo.

1291
02:06:11,860 --> 02:06:13,800
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: And that should tell us a lot, ano?

1292
02:06:13,940 --> 02:06:21,060
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi kung Camp Aguinaldo and these are supposed to be foreign agents, then that should be a major concern.

1293
02:06:21,560 --> 02:06:23,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Threat sa national security.

1294
02:06:24,020 --> 02:06:24,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We'll find out, Your Honor.

1295
02:06:25,260 --> 02:06:26,120
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yeah, please.

1296
02:06:26,580 --> 02:06:28,020
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: And please do something about it.

1297
02:06:28,040 --> 02:06:33,580
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Because baka mamaya, may mga reports din tayo, may mga sleeper na, di ba?

1298
02:06:34,140 --> 02:06:34,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1299
02:06:34,740 --> 02:06:35,680
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: In the country.

1300
02:06:36,340 --> 02:06:42,320
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: And this could be tied to the reports of late registration of birth.

1301
02:06:42,920 --> 02:06:43,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1302
02:06:43,520 --> 02:06:46,660
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Ang last count yata, nasa mga 3,000 ba o 5,000?

1303
02:06:47,300 --> 02:06:48,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sir, I'm not sure of the amount.

1304
02:06:48,700 --> 02:06:49,480
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Identified, yeah.

1305
02:06:49,520 --> 02:06:50,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, sir.

1306
02:06:51,320 --> 02:06:55,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Identified the personalities na late registration.

1307
02:06:55,880 --> 02:06:57,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I don't know what's the status now.

1308
02:06:58,040 --> 02:07:00,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kung ano na ginawa ng PSA.

1309
02:07:00,720 --> 02:07:03,440
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Tinanong rin namin sa PSA ito during the budget deliberation.

1310
02:07:04,100 --> 02:07:07,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: And they're trying to find some remedial measures.

1311
02:07:08,400 --> 02:07:11,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: But, you know, masyado malalim na pag ganyang karami.

1312
02:07:12,120 --> 02:07:13,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Malalim na po talaga, sir.

1313
02:07:13,460 --> 02:07:15,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At yung iba, second generation na eh.

1314
02:07:16,420 --> 02:07:23,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang pasok dito ng magulang ay talagang, ano, yung anak naman ang pinag-late registration.

1315
02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:25,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Di umano.

1316
02:07:25,940 --> 02:07:27,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Si Alice Gu ay ganun din.

1317
02:07:28,040 --> 02:07:34,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero, meron din nagsasabi na hindi nga ganun ang nangyari sa kanya.

1318
02:07:36,960 --> 02:07:39,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Bagong pasok, bagong register.

1319
02:07:42,100 --> 02:07:45,460
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Anyway, kindly look into it, Mr. Secretary.

1320
02:07:45,600 --> 02:07:46,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Will do, sir.

1321
02:07:46,120 --> 02:07:47,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we'll report to you.

1322
02:07:48,060 --> 02:07:52,440
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: I will yield the floor to Senator Tulfo or the Senate President, Mr. Chairman.

1323
02:07:55,360 --> 02:07:56,580
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Our Senate President.

1324
02:07:56,580 --> 02:07:57,400
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you.

1325
02:07:57,520 --> 02:07:57,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you.

1326
02:07:58,040 --> 02:07:58,700
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

1327
02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:08,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I'll start off, Mr. Chairman, with some budgets, some of the items in the 2026 budget.

1328
02:08:09,600 --> 02:08:14,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Na-discuss ni Secretary ito kanina, yung sa loan.

1329
02:08:15,620 --> 02:08:22,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And I would like to understand how come the special provision wasn't triggered.

1330
02:08:22,940 --> 02:08:23,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I think it was...

1331
02:08:24,760 --> 02:08:27,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Nalagay natin itong special provision in foreign...

1332
02:08:28,040 --> 02:08:29,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and domestic financing arrangements.

1333
02:08:30,700 --> 02:08:34,640
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: This is an offshoot from an information from the Coast Guard.

1334
02:08:35,920 --> 02:08:41,980
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Ang Coast Guard, nakasecure sila ng ODA to buy Coast Guard ships.

1335
02:08:42,720 --> 02:08:46,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, last year, we had a discussion.

1336
02:08:46,260 --> 02:08:49,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Sabi natin bakit hindi natin gawin the same for the defense, no?

1337
02:08:49,320 --> 02:08:51,780
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Whether ODA or other forms of loans.

1338
02:08:52,300 --> 02:08:54,700
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And hence, nalagay natin itong provision.

1339
02:08:54,700 --> 02:08:57,400
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But I want to understand, Secretary, how come hindi siya nagamit?

1340
02:08:57,400 --> 02:08:59,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Is it too tight?

1341
02:08:59,460 --> 02:09:02,700
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Is it not kulang pa sa language?

1342
02:09:03,420 --> 02:09:07,640
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: May we understand kung ano naging result nito, no?

1343
02:09:07,880 --> 02:09:11,580
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: It's an innovation, actually, proposed by the Secretary.

1344
02:09:11,980 --> 02:09:20,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And sabi ko nga, this is a good way of multiplying the financial capacity of the armed forces or the DND.

1345
02:09:20,900 --> 02:09:25,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are basically two reasons, Your Honor.

1346
02:09:25,520 --> 02:09:26,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That there's a tight...

1347
02:09:27,400 --> 02:09:29,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: fiscal space for what we need.

1348
02:09:29,400 --> 02:09:32,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hence, the provision could not be triggered.

1349
02:09:32,680 --> 02:09:38,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And secondly, we were not able, insofar as the proposal sent to us,

1350
02:09:39,260 --> 02:09:43,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to get the financing in the rate that we want.

1351
02:09:44,100 --> 02:09:48,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It was too expensive, Your Honor, for us to trigger.

1352
02:09:48,620 --> 02:09:50,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hence, we did not trigger, Your Honor.

1353
02:09:50,580 --> 02:09:52,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Pero merong sanong opportunity?

1354
02:09:53,220 --> 02:09:55,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meron, pero mataas po ang financing cost.

1355
02:09:55,800 --> 02:09:56,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hindi lang po mataas.

1356
02:09:57,400 --> 02:09:58,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yung cost.

1357
02:09:58,820 --> 02:10:00,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero pati financing cost, mataas.

1358
02:10:01,780 --> 02:10:03,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's a timing issue na rin.

1359
02:10:03,540 --> 02:10:05,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Timing issue, triggering issue, Your Honor.

1360
02:10:06,060 --> 02:10:13,280
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And do you propose to include natin ito ulit sa 2027 budget?

1361
02:10:13,280 --> 02:10:16,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It will provide us with the flexibility, Your Honor,

1362
02:10:16,500 --> 02:10:25,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: until the Presidential Decree limiting the amount of foreign borrowings that we can do for defense

1363
02:10:25,340 --> 02:10:27,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to 300 million pesos a year.

1364
02:10:27,240 --> 02:10:27,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Is that right?

1365
02:10:27,280 --> 02:10:27,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1366
02:10:27,300 --> 02:10:32,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we would request it, very humbly request it again, Your Honor.

1367
02:10:33,260 --> 02:10:35,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With the assurance that we will not trigger, Your Honor,

1368
02:10:36,060 --> 02:10:39,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: unless the Department of Finance is comfortable with it

1369
02:10:39,940 --> 02:10:45,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and we are comfortable also with the item that is being acquired.

1370
02:10:45,840 --> 02:10:48,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: With the terms of the financing, no?

1371
02:10:48,380 --> 02:10:49,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1372
02:10:49,200 --> 02:10:55,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi ngayon, admittedly, because of government bonds, everything is expensive right now.

1373
02:10:55,620 --> 02:10:57,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Even in India, Your Honor?

1374
02:10:57,300 --> 02:11:01,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They increase the yield to 5.13% in government bonds.

1375
02:11:01,720 --> 02:11:06,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, because to defend the Indian currency.

1376
02:11:07,160 --> 02:11:09,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, it's a worldwide phenomenon.

1377
02:11:09,540 --> 02:11:10,020
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Yes, correct.

1378
02:11:10,020 --> 02:11:15,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: That's actually a reason why peso is weakening because of foreign interest rates.

1379
02:11:15,580 --> 02:11:21,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And with critical infrastructure that we need financing to, we understand the mix, Your Honor.

1380
02:11:21,620 --> 02:11:27,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But if we find a need that we can fill with the terms that our...

1381
02:11:27,300 --> 02:11:32,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We feel, Your Honor, will not be replicated any time,

1382
02:11:32,560 --> 02:11:37,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: then we will not hesitate to ask the Secretary of Finance to trigger it.

1383
02:11:37,500 --> 02:11:39,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: How about Secretary ODAs?

1384
02:11:39,160 --> 02:11:40,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Kasi ODAs are more competitive.

1385
02:11:41,260 --> 02:11:45,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But I'm not very sure whether that's available for defense equipment.

1386
02:11:46,040 --> 02:11:50,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I know they're available for PCG, which is a civilian type of operation,

1387
02:11:51,140 --> 02:11:52,660
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: law enforcement type of operation.

1388
02:11:52,780 --> 02:11:56,620
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But for defense, I'm not very sure kung available yung mga ganyan sa defense.

1389
02:11:56,620 --> 02:11:57,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: No, Your Honor.

1390
02:11:57,320 --> 02:11:58,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They're not available normally.

1391
02:11:59,460 --> 02:12:04,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With Japan, as a matter of fact, there's the official security assistance,

1392
02:12:05,040 --> 02:12:07,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is a grant of 200 million.

1393
02:12:07,460 --> 02:12:09,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For the past three years, we were the recipients.

1394
02:12:11,460 --> 02:12:21,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But normal ODA financing, which has to conform to OECD and other requirements,

1395
02:12:22,040 --> 02:12:23,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: still defends.

1396
02:12:23,740 --> 02:12:26,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are some countries that accept it and some none.

1397
02:12:27,300 --> 02:12:32,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So the financing for defense are special purpose credit agencies

1398
02:12:32,840 --> 02:12:38,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: normally tied to exports of the providing country, Your Honor.

1399
02:12:39,080 --> 02:12:40,360
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you for that information.

1400
02:12:40,520 --> 02:12:47,800
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: We'll propose to the Chairman to re-include the special provision for financing

1401
02:12:47,800 --> 02:12:52,400
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and for foreign and domestic financing.

1402
02:12:52,760 --> 02:12:53,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thank you, Your Honor.

1403
02:12:53,500 --> 02:12:56,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: In the same way that we did not trigger this, Your Honor,

1404
02:12:56,380 --> 02:13:03,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we did not obligate the full amount of the 50 billion modernization

1405
02:13:03,340 --> 02:13:10,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because it will result in a payable of more than the 50 billion this year to about 80.

1406
02:13:10,420 --> 02:13:13,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So you're also very conservative in triggering that, Your Honor.

1407
02:13:14,400 --> 02:13:15,240
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Secretary.

1408
02:13:15,580 --> 02:13:17,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And I'm sure kayo, being a finance guy before,

1409
02:13:18,560 --> 02:13:23,500
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: kabisado nyo yung mga ganitong impact to our balance sheet.

1410
02:13:24,200 --> 02:13:24,280
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Yeah.

1411
02:13:24,280 --> 02:13:26,280
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I'll go to...

1412
02:13:26,380 --> 02:13:28,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: A related item.

1413
02:13:28,720 --> 02:13:32,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: This is on modernization, Secretary.

1414
02:13:32,060 --> 02:13:42,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And this has been a really challenging activity of appropriation

1415
02:13:42,780 --> 02:13:44,760
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: because malaking amount siya.

1416
02:13:45,840 --> 02:13:55,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And last year, there was an allocation in the unprogrammed funds of...

1417
02:13:56,380 --> 02:13:57,820
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 50 billion.

1418
02:13:58,840 --> 02:14:03,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And na-trigger ba itong unprogrammed funds?

1419
02:14:03,420 --> 02:14:06,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I just want to understand whether it has been triggered.

1420
02:14:07,020 --> 02:14:09,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Normally yan, nasa dulo na third, fourth quarter.

1421
02:14:10,120 --> 02:14:10,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But I'm not...

1422
02:14:11,500 --> 02:14:18,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: The rationale there is lower down the line items in the unprogrammed

1423
02:14:18,940 --> 02:14:21,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: para ma-prioritize ka agad yung modernization

1424
02:14:21,440 --> 02:14:24,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and ma-trigger at mabigay ka agad sa AFP yung ano.

1425
02:14:24,500 --> 02:14:26,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But I want to get an update whether na-trigger

1426
02:14:26,380 --> 02:14:27,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: ho siya o hindi.

1427
02:14:27,720 --> 02:14:32,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, in the same manner as we did not trigger the other items,

1428
02:14:32,680 --> 02:14:38,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because it would balloon the modernization payables alone for this year,

1429
02:14:38,300 --> 02:14:39,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we did not trigger the unprogrammed.

1430
02:14:39,960 --> 02:14:44,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we could not trigger it because the total of the amount,

1431
02:14:44,980 --> 02:14:45,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: both programmed and unprogrammed,

1432
02:14:47,360 --> 02:14:52,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: probably would be the full amount of regular modernization infra

1433
02:14:52,580 --> 02:14:55,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: just to pay the obligations.

1434
02:14:56,380 --> 02:14:56,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Okay.

1435
02:14:57,240 --> 02:14:59,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, in other words, it's a...

1436
02:14:59,920 --> 02:15:05,820
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: available, but the timing is not favorable?

1437
02:15:06,480 --> 02:15:06,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1438
02:15:07,180 --> 02:15:09,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We obligated 84%.

1439
02:15:09,620 --> 02:15:15,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The 12% trigger would cause us to exceed the 50 billion threshold.

1440
02:15:16,320 --> 02:15:20,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Actually, our payable for MICA this year would be about 70, right?

1441
02:15:22,800 --> 02:15:23,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 50.

1442
02:15:23,560 --> 02:15:26,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But if we trigger the 12%, it will be about 70.

1443
02:15:26,840 --> 02:15:28,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That is the constraint, Your Honor.

1444
02:15:28,500 --> 02:15:28,800
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Okay.

1445
02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:31,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That's why we're not triggering the 12%.

1446
02:15:31,880 --> 02:15:34,520
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And because what you said earlier, it's a seller's market.

1447
02:15:34,900 --> 02:15:35,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1448
02:15:35,580 --> 02:15:37,000
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, mahal ang equipment ngayon?

1449
02:15:38,660 --> 02:15:41,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Mahal po ang equipment at pamahal pa ng pamahal

1450
02:15:41,760 --> 02:15:47,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because even the raw material inputs sa equipment ay umaakyat po.

1451
02:15:47,440 --> 02:15:55,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Critical minerals, semiconductors, electronics, bakal, copper,

1452
02:15:55,480 --> 02:15:58,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: other inputs, lumalaki.

1453
02:15:58,800 --> 02:16:01,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, with what's happening around the world right now,

1454
02:16:01,240 --> 02:16:01,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: yung mga conflicts,

1455
02:16:02,660 --> 02:16:05,740
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: ang impact niyan is yung presyo ng equipment.

1456
02:16:06,640 --> 02:16:08,000
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Tumataas siya at this time.

1457
02:16:08,020 --> 02:16:09,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Opo, at saka yung demand po mataas.

1458
02:16:10,300 --> 02:16:12,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, yung presyo po umaakyat.

1459
02:16:13,080 --> 02:16:18,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi doon lang po sa munitions,

1460
02:16:18,460 --> 02:16:20,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is not an item of modernization.

1461
02:16:20,680 --> 02:16:26,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For 105 and 155 mm ammunition,

1462
02:16:27,920 --> 02:16:28,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: bumibigyan.

1463
02:16:28,800 --> 02:16:31,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Bumibili pa po sa secondary market kung may countries

1464
02:16:31,740 --> 02:16:33,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na pwede magbenta ng stock nila

1465
02:16:33,820 --> 02:16:38,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: para masupply lang doon sa Ukraine or other countries.

1466
02:16:40,180 --> 02:16:42,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Or sa Israel, actually.

1467
02:16:43,240 --> 02:16:44,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Bumibili nung araw po.

1468
02:16:45,440 --> 02:16:50,480
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So, complicated itong situation natin when it comes to defense equipment.

1469
02:16:50,720 --> 02:16:51,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi po...

1470
02:16:51,560 --> 02:16:53,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Interrelated itong mga conflicts to us.

1471
02:16:54,680 --> 02:16:56,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Historically po, after...

1472
02:16:56,860 --> 02:16:57,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: After...

1473
02:16:58,800 --> 02:17:01,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: After the fall of the Berlin Wall,

1474
02:17:03,300 --> 02:17:08,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in-scale down po yung tooling of production for defense equipment worldwide.

1475
02:17:08,900 --> 02:17:09,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Lalo na po sa Europe.

1476
02:17:11,080 --> 02:17:14,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, ngayon, humahabol pa po sila sa capacity

1477
02:17:14,060 --> 02:17:19,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: just to supply Ukraine insofar as the EU is concerned.

1478
02:17:19,180 --> 02:17:22,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, wala pa po sila sa full capacity.

1479
02:17:22,840 --> 02:17:24,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Actually po, ang...

1480
02:17:24,920 --> 02:17:28,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang Germany po ay...

1481
02:17:28,800 --> 02:17:34,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If I'm not mistaken, 500 billion euro ang kanyang modernization.

1482
02:17:34,480 --> 02:17:42,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Hindi pa niya na uubos po kasi wala pong capacity to produce pa ang kanyang bansa.

1483
02:17:43,740 --> 02:17:47,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, it is also a question po of availability

1484
02:17:47,060 --> 02:17:51,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of limited lines of production.

1485
02:17:52,040 --> 02:17:55,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because of the scale down of defense equipment.

1486
02:17:55,680 --> 02:17:57,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The only country, Your Honor,

1487
02:17:58,800 --> 02:18:03,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in our environment,

1488
02:18:04,060 --> 02:18:06,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in our like-minded environment,

1489
02:18:06,700 --> 02:18:11,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that is equipped but not totally equipped

1490
02:18:11,420 --> 02:18:17,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to supply 100% of its clients' demands is Korea.

1491
02:18:17,420 --> 02:18:23,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Which is why we have a comprehensive strategic partnership with them

1492
02:18:23,860 --> 02:18:26,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and joint development with them.

1493
02:18:27,480 --> 02:18:28,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They were the only ones...

1494
02:18:28,640 --> 02:18:28,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They were the only ones...

1495
02:18:28,660 --> 02:18:29,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They were the only ones, Your Honor,

1496
02:18:29,460 --> 02:18:35,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: never to slow down their production and industrial base

1497
02:18:35,060 --> 02:18:37,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for producing defense equipment.

1498
02:18:38,480 --> 02:18:40,260
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Ngayon kasi, ano talaga eh.

1499
02:18:40,380 --> 02:18:42,220
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I mean, you can see it in the news na

1500
02:18:42,220 --> 02:18:46,780
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: parang buong mundo.

1501
02:18:48,400 --> 02:18:50,560
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Something's happening in different parts of the region

1502
02:18:50,560 --> 02:18:55,080
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and definitely a lot of countries now are stocking up,

1503
02:18:55,600 --> 02:18:58,640
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: modernizing, increasing their capabilities,

1504
02:18:58,660 --> 02:19:03,220
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and, of course, for us who are also modernizing,

1505
02:19:03,420 --> 02:19:07,400
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: it's with very, very limited resources,

1506
02:19:08,020 --> 02:19:11,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: impacted tayo with those conflicts.

1507
02:19:11,660 --> 02:19:14,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, may I point out also in ASEAN, for example,

1508
02:19:15,620 --> 02:19:19,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Indonesia has ordered 47 new fighters,

1509
02:19:21,240 --> 02:19:27,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the top-of-the-line Rafales from France.

1510
02:19:27,100 --> 02:19:28,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Malaysia is...

1511
02:19:28,660 --> 02:19:32,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's continuing to expand its capabilities.

1512
02:19:33,260 --> 02:19:35,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Actually, they had the missile defense contract

1513
02:19:35,580 --> 02:19:38,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which was canceled by, I believe, Finland

1514
02:19:38,160 --> 02:19:42,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because they needed to recommit it somewhere else.

1515
02:19:42,720 --> 02:19:43,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I'm not sure...

1516
02:19:43,660 --> 02:19:45,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: No, it's Norway, I think.

1517
02:19:46,020 --> 02:19:50,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Even Brunei is buying what we heard

1518
02:19:50,320 --> 02:19:53,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is that they are acquiring their first F-50s.

1519
02:19:54,580 --> 02:19:58,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So everybody within the region is really building up

1520
02:19:58,120 --> 02:19:58,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: its own...

1521
02:19:58,500 --> 02:19:59,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Its own capabilities.

1522
02:20:00,220 --> 02:20:03,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Of course, the outlier there is Singapore

1523
02:20:03,400 --> 02:20:05,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because it has always done so

1524
02:20:05,060 --> 02:20:09,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: from day one of its creation, Your Honor.

1525
02:20:10,480 --> 02:20:11,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Secretary, is this a...

1526
02:20:11,900 --> 02:20:13,380
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: From a policy point of view,

1527
02:20:13,480 --> 02:20:15,780
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: is this a signal that the whole...

1528
02:20:15,780 --> 02:20:18,460
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: the entire world right now is changing

1529
02:20:18,460 --> 02:20:21,620
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: in terms of their mindset on defense?

1530
02:20:22,300 --> 02:20:22,440
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Yes.

1531
02:20:22,440 --> 02:20:27,360
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Because it's becoming more volatile in our region,

1532
02:20:27,540 --> 02:20:28,360
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: definitely our regions,

1533
02:20:28,500 --> 02:20:29,380
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: becoming more volatile,

1534
02:20:29,600 --> 02:20:32,260
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: as we can see in the West Philippine Sea.

1535
02:20:32,480 --> 02:20:33,980
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: But in the other parts of the world,

1536
02:20:34,040 --> 02:20:35,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: it's also doing the same.

1537
02:20:35,840 --> 02:20:36,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I think, Your Honor,

1538
02:20:37,180 --> 02:20:39,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it's not only a question of volatility

1539
02:20:39,720 --> 02:20:42,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which you will need to deter and to address,

1540
02:20:42,580 --> 02:20:46,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but a question also of long-term resilience.

1541
02:20:47,200 --> 02:20:50,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Many countries do not want to be faced with a situation

1542
02:20:50,720 --> 02:20:53,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where they will not be able to deter

1543
02:20:53,900 --> 02:20:57,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: with the basic capability and weight,

1544
02:20:58,500 --> 02:21:04,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: or rely totally on an organization

1545
02:21:04,800 --> 02:21:08,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: or a conglomeration of countries to come to your aid.

1546
02:21:09,440 --> 02:21:12,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If at all it comes to that,

1547
02:21:12,260 --> 02:21:16,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: you will still have to wait for some period of time

1548
02:21:16,120 --> 02:21:17,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: before help comes.

1549
02:21:18,300 --> 02:21:21,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That's why you have to build up that basic amount of resilience

1550
02:21:21,460 --> 02:21:24,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to survive in the meantime.

1551
02:21:25,220 --> 02:21:27,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But most importantly, Your Honor,

1552
02:21:27,880 --> 02:21:28,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is also...

1553
02:21:28,500 --> 02:21:36,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is also a reality that a more robust defense setup

1554
02:21:36,680 --> 02:21:40,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: deters aggressive actions against...

1555
02:21:40,800 --> 02:21:44,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it is a deterrent to aggressive actions and to conflict.

1556
02:21:47,440 --> 02:21:50,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: More importantly than the need to use it,

1557
02:21:51,040 --> 02:21:58,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is a warning to make an aggressor have a second thought.

1558
02:21:58,500 --> 02:22:01,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Before it even attempts to do so.

1559
02:22:02,220 --> 02:22:03,840
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Parang yun yung sinasabi ni Trump,

1560
02:22:04,960 --> 02:22:06,800
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: peace through strength.

1561
02:22:07,520 --> 02:22:08,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor.

1562
02:22:08,360 --> 02:22:09,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's just like, you know,

1563
02:22:09,280 --> 02:22:11,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: building a high fence in your house,

1564
02:22:11,100 --> 02:22:15,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it deters people from coming in.

1565
02:22:15,560 --> 02:22:16,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's the same way.

1566
02:22:17,440 --> 02:22:18,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Mr. Secretary.

1567
02:22:18,600 --> 02:22:20,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I'll go to Mr. Chairman.

1568
02:22:20,200 --> 02:22:21,140
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Do you have any...

1569
02:22:21,140 --> 02:22:24,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yes, si Senator Tulfo wants to interject

1570
02:22:24,880 --> 02:22:27,300
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: with your indulgence, Senate President.

1571
02:22:28,500 --> 02:22:30,420
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Yes, Mr. Secretary,

1572
02:22:30,620 --> 02:22:33,240
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: with the indulgence, of course, of our Senate President.

1573
02:22:36,180 --> 02:22:38,980
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Sa arap po ng mga pahayag lately po

1574
02:22:38,980 --> 02:22:41,240
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng ambasador po ng China

1575
02:22:41,240 --> 02:22:44,960
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: at ito patuloy po na tensyon sa West Philippine Sea,

1576
02:22:46,000 --> 02:22:48,920
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ano po ang kongkretong paghanda po

1577
02:22:48,920 --> 02:22:51,400
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: or pwedeng ihanda ng Armed Forces of the Philippines

1578
02:22:51,400 --> 02:22:53,580
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: para maprotektahan po ating teritoryo,

1579
02:22:54,500 --> 02:22:56,020
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: mga sundalo at mga mamayan

1580
02:22:56,020 --> 02:22:57,620
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: sa kabila po ng...

1581
02:22:58,500 --> 02:23:00,160
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: mindset

1582
02:23:00,160 --> 02:23:02,180
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na naitatag

1583
02:23:02,180 --> 02:23:03,540
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng mga dating opisyal

1584
02:23:03,540 --> 02:23:05,980
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na isang nuklear lang

1585
02:23:05,980 --> 02:23:07,580
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: sasabog na tayo,

1586
02:23:08,140 --> 02:23:09,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na lulusubin tayo,

1587
02:23:09,640 --> 02:23:11,040
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na dudurugin tayo.

1588
02:23:11,580 --> 02:23:13,520
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Wala naman po tayong ginagawa, di ba?

1589
02:23:13,740 --> 02:23:15,660
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Na pag-umalma tayo.

1590
02:23:15,960 --> 02:23:17,180
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: So, yung mga tao naman,

1591
02:23:18,140 --> 02:23:19,160
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: kagad sinasabi,

1592
02:23:19,460 --> 02:23:20,320
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: magagawa natin,

1593
02:23:20,600 --> 02:23:21,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: bubombahin tayo,

1594
02:23:21,720 --> 02:23:22,340
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: gegyarahin,

1595
02:23:22,400 --> 02:23:24,960
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: because of these pronouncements before

1596
02:23:24,960 --> 02:23:27,080
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng mga officials natin,

1597
02:23:27,160 --> 02:23:27,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na parang tumatakot,

1598
02:23:28,500 --> 02:23:30,220
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: tatak na sa isipan ng mga kababayan natin,

1599
02:23:30,360 --> 02:23:31,840
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: huwag na lang po tayo magsalita,

1600
02:23:31,940 --> 02:23:33,700
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: nakakatakot, kawawa tayo.

1601
02:23:35,020 --> 02:23:36,700
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Tapos itong recently pa,

1602
02:23:37,760 --> 02:23:39,760
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na pailan daw po sila

1603
02:23:39,760 --> 02:23:42,160
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng persona non grata,

1604
02:23:42,880 --> 02:23:44,260
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: then yung mga opisyal natin,

1605
02:23:44,440 --> 02:23:46,140
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: hindi nila tatanggapin doon.

1606
02:23:46,720 --> 02:23:48,260
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Yung mga opisyal naman siguro na ito,

1607
02:23:48,340 --> 02:23:49,940
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I'm sure, wala naman silang interest

1608
02:23:49,940 --> 02:23:51,680
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: din na pumunta ho doon sa lugar na yun.

1609
02:23:52,240 --> 02:23:54,480
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Pero, what kind of preparations are you doing now

1610
02:23:54,480 --> 02:23:56,100
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: to counter this,

1611
02:23:56,100 --> 02:23:58,240
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: to allay the fears,

1612
02:23:58,500 --> 02:23:59,180
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: of the public,

1613
02:23:59,640 --> 02:24:00,940
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: na bubombahin tayo,

1614
02:24:01,100 --> 02:24:03,940
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: nuklear, dodorogin, etc., etc.?

1615
02:24:03,940 --> 02:24:04,660
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Mr. Secretary?

1616
02:24:05,900 --> 02:24:07,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Unang-una po talagang,

1617
02:24:07,540 --> 02:24:09,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we're trying our best really

1618
02:24:09,740 --> 02:24:12,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to work not only singly,

1619
02:24:13,080 --> 02:24:16,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pero with our other allies

1620
02:24:16,120 --> 02:24:21,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to deter any more aggressive physical actions

1621
02:24:21,320 --> 02:24:24,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: on a military sense by China.

1622
02:24:24,300 --> 02:24:27,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And it is not only a threat to us,

1623
02:24:28,500 --> 02:24:29,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is also a threat to Vietnam,

1624
02:24:30,380 --> 02:24:30,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to Malaysia,

1625
02:24:31,280 --> 02:24:34,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and to Brunei,

1626
02:24:35,100 --> 02:24:37,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and a threat to Japan,

1627
02:24:37,180 --> 02:24:41,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where their actions are equally aggressive,

1628
02:24:41,480 --> 02:24:44,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: not to the extent that we are facing

1629
02:24:44,500 --> 02:24:46,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of the proximity of

1630
02:24:46,900 --> 02:24:51,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 800 kilometers away from China

1631
02:24:51,780 --> 02:24:56,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the shores of Palawan

1632
02:24:56,840 --> 02:24:58,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in the West Philippines,

1633
02:24:58,500 --> 02:25:00,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and South China Sea area,

1634
02:25:00,780 --> 02:25:03,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pero sa haba po ng ating

1635
02:25:03,740 --> 02:25:07,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: boundary sa Pacific Ocean.

1636
02:25:07,180 --> 02:25:09,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, ang kanila pong behavior,

1637
02:25:09,740 --> 02:25:11,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi lang po sa atin,

1638
02:25:11,500 --> 02:25:12,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kahit po sa India,

1639
02:25:12,660 --> 02:25:15,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: may inaakuna naman sila na lupain.

1640
02:25:15,340 --> 02:25:17,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, pati po ang India,

1641
02:25:17,500 --> 02:25:21,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: meron na silang karanasan

1642
02:25:21,500 --> 02:25:25,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na nagka border conflict na ilang beses,

1643
02:25:25,500 --> 02:25:28,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: nagiging mas agresibo po sila.

1644
02:25:28,380 --> 02:25:30,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, it stands to reason

1645
02:25:30,880 --> 02:25:35,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na although may individual response tayo

1646
02:25:35,120 --> 02:25:35,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na dependent,

1647
02:25:36,820 --> 02:25:39,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: actually more than response po,

1648
02:25:39,320 --> 02:25:41,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang ating dapat gawin

1649
02:25:41,500 --> 02:25:42,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is to build deterrence.

1650
02:25:43,840 --> 02:25:45,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Magdalawang isip muna,

1651
02:25:45,500 --> 02:25:46,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kahit sino,

1652
02:25:46,900 --> 02:25:47,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kahit sino,

1653
02:25:48,280 --> 02:25:49,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: bago tayo guluhin.

1654
02:25:50,400 --> 02:25:53,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi maaari nating pasakitin ang ulo nila.

1655
02:25:53,460 --> 02:25:55,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At it's not worth it at the end of the day.

1656
02:25:56,660 --> 02:25:57,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero,

1657
02:25:57,100 --> 02:25:57,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so,

1658
02:25:57,220 --> 02:26:01,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: habang ginagawa po natin yan,

1659
02:26:01,220 --> 02:26:06,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a collective deterrence is necessary po.

1660
02:26:08,220 --> 02:26:11,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Even with Russia po na napakalakas eh,

1661
02:26:11,220 --> 02:26:13,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi niya kinaya yung Ukraine

1662
02:26:13,220 --> 02:26:17,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kung walang tulong ang North Korea at saka China sa kanya.

1663
02:26:17,220 --> 02:26:20,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, ano pa kaya tayo na mas maliit?

1664
02:26:20,220 --> 02:26:24,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kaya nga po ang mga alyansa natin ay

1665
02:26:24,220 --> 02:26:27,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pinagtitibay natin na mabilis.

1666
02:26:27,220 --> 02:26:29,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At yan ay ayaw ng China.

1667
02:26:30,220 --> 02:26:33,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi siya ang outlier dito eh.

1668
02:26:33,220 --> 02:26:34,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang outlier po,

1669
02:26:34,220 --> 02:26:36,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: kasi siyang nagliklaim ng,

1670
02:26:36,220 --> 02:26:38,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: walang ibang nagliklaim sa buong mundo,

1671
02:26:38,220 --> 02:26:40,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: yung nine-dash line po niya.

1672
02:26:40,220 --> 02:26:42,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At hindi lang po yan eh.

1673
02:26:42,220 --> 02:26:45,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kung pumayag tayo ng nine-dash line ngayon,

1674
02:26:46,220 --> 02:26:47,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: eto na nga,

1675
02:26:47,220 --> 02:26:48,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pati Batanes po,

1676
02:26:48,220 --> 02:26:50,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: sinasama na po nila yan.

1677
02:26:50,220 --> 02:26:52,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Baka hanggang,

1678
02:26:52,220 --> 02:26:56,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hanggang kusaan lupalop na umabot ang mga claims nila.

1679
02:26:56,220 --> 02:26:57,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So,

1680
02:26:59,220 --> 02:27:01,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we are trying our best

1681
02:27:01,220 --> 02:27:03,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: given fiscal constraints

1682
02:27:03,220 --> 02:27:05,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at nakikita naman po natin,

1683
02:27:06,220 --> 02:27:07,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Senator,

1684
02:27:07,220 --> 02:27:10,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na 100% ang accomplishment

1685
02:27:10,220 --> 02:27:12,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ng territorial defense.

1686
02:27:12,220 --> 02:27:14,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero sinasabi ko na na

1687
02:27:15,220 --> 02:27:16,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi sustainable to.

1688
02:27:16,220 --> 02:27:18,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi yung 100% accomplishment,

1689
02:27:18,220 --> 02:27:21,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: lagi dapat may gap yan for reserves eh.

1690
02:27:21,220 --> 02:27:23,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kung sagad-sagad po,

1691
02:27:23,220 --> 02:27:25,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: mauubusan po ng gasolina yan.

1692
02:27:25,000 --> 02:27:27,680
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Figuratively, one

1693
02:27:27,680 --> 02:27:28,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: day.

1694
02:27:28,440 --> 02:27:30,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So we have to build that space

1695
02:27:30,220 --> 02:27:31,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: on

1696
02:27:31,220 --> 02:27:33,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the dimensional size

1697
02:27:33,220 --> 02:27:34,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and notional

1698
02:27:34,220 --> 02:27:35,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: size of

1699
02:27:35,220 --> 02:27:37,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our operations. I

1700
02:27:37,220 --> 02:27:38,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: get the point that

1701
02:27:38,220 --> 02:27:39,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the public

1702
02:27:39,220 --> 02:27:41,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is also worried

1703
02:27:41,220 --> 02:27:42,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: as to

1704
02:27:42,220 --> 02:27:54,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the ability of the armed forces to defend and protect them. That is why all our actions are calibrated in a manner which we can sustain and not to

1705
02:27:54,260 --> 02:27:56,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: go beyond an unsustainable

1706
02:27:56,080 --> 02:27:58,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: manner or

1707
02:27:58,100 --> 02:28:00,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: an irresponsible manner for

1708
02:28:00,080 --> 02:28:01,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that matter.

1709
02:28:02,080 --> 02:28:02,710
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Thank you, Your Honor.

1710
02:28:02,710 --> 02:28:04,120
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Kasi, Secretary, the mindset

1711
02:28:04,120 --> 02:28:06,780
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: was, gigirahin tayo.

1712
02:28:06,900 --> 02:28:07,520
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Nauna po eh.

1713
02:28:08,260 --> 02:28:10,320
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Gigirahin tayo, bubombahin tayo.

1714
02:28:11,120 --> 02:28:12,180
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Pag tayo,

1715
02:28:12,320 --> 02:28:14,060
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: we stand up against China.

1716
02:28:14,060 --> 02:28:15,920
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I'm not saying naggirahin natin dahil

1717
02:28:15,920 --> 02:28:18,280
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: truly, wala namang tayong capability

1718
02:28:18,280 --> 02:28:19,720
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: but then standing up,

1719
02:28:20,160 --> 02:28:22,060
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I mean, holding our line,

1720
02:28:22,500 --> 02:28:24,060
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: hindi naman siguro tayo bubombahin

1721
02:28:24,060 --> 02:28:25,800
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: kasi sabi po na iba,

1722
02:28:25,900 --> 02:28:28,200
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: bubombahin tayo. Tapos, would you agree

1723
02:28:28,200 --> 02:28:29,940
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: with me, sir, na nakumukuha

1724
02:28:29,940 --> 02:28:31,660
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng lakas ng loob itong China because

1725
02:28:31,660 --> 02:28:34,020
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: there is some officials in this land

1726
02:28:34,020 --> 02:28:35,860
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: they're saying na tayo, parang tayo pa

1727
02:28:35,860 --> 02:28:38,200
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ang may kasalanan and then supportado

1728
02:28:38,200 --> 02:28:39,740
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: sila ng isang grupo, probably

1729
02:28:39,740 --> 02:28:42,160
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: grupo ng mga trolls. Could that be the reason

1730
02:28:42,160 --> 02:28:43,840
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: kaya lumalakas ang loob po

1731
02:28:43,840 --> 02:28:46,520
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ng Chinese ambassador, Mr. Secretary?

1732
02:28:46,940 --> 02:28:48,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Maari pong isa na sa

1733
02:28:48,080 --> 02:28:50,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: rason yan kasi the best

1734
02:28:50,340 --> 02:28:52,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: way to weaken

1735
02:28:52,360 --> 02:28:53,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: your enemy is to

1736
02:28:53,760 --> 02:28:55,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: foment internal dissension

1737
02:28:55,880 --> 02:28:59,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in an area

1738
02:28:59,120 --> 02:29:00,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which you want to

1739
02:29:00,300 --> 02:29:01,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: compromise

1740
02:29:01,780 --> 02:29:04,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: or to co-opt. Maari pong

1741
02:29:04,320 --> 02:29:06,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: malakas na dahilan yan

1742
02:29:06,060 --> 02:29:08,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at actually

1743
02:29:08,120 --> 02:29:10,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the

1744
02:29:10,100 --> 02:29:12,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: gaslighting

1745
02:29:12,340 --> 02:29:13,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is one of the worst

1746
02:29:13,520 --> 02:29:15,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: things that

1747
02:29:15,080 --> 02:29:16,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we can

1748
02:29:16,660 --> 02:29:20,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: experience at this time.

1749
02:29:21,260 --> 02:29:22,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Lalo-lalo na po

1750
02:29:22,180 --> 02:29:23,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in the face of

1751
02:29:23,760 --> 02:29:25,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a blatant statement

1752
02:29:25,400 --> 02:29:27,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: by the Chinese ambassador, pag may

1753
02:29:27,460 --> 02:29:29,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: nagtatanggol pa dyan, talagang

1754
02:29:29,320 --> 02:29:31,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: halatang-halatana naman ho na

1755
02:29:31,160 --> 02:29:36,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi po

1756
02:29:36,460 --> 02:29:37,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: makatwiran

1757
02:29:37,760 --> 02:29:39,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang kanilang posisyon.

1758
02:29:39,600 --> 02:29:41,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero meron po talaga, we cannot deny it.

1759
02:29:44,480 --> 02:29:45,440
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yes, before

1760
02:29:45,440 --> 02:29:48,160
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Senator Lackson

1761
02:29:48,160 --> 02:29:49,980
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: would like to interject.

1762
02:29:50,220 --> 02:29:51,680
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: With his permission, Mr. Chairman,

1763
02:29:51,680 --> 02:29:53,680
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: there seems to be a glaring discussion

1764
02:29:53,760 --> 02:29:54,760
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: about the disparity

1765
02:29:54,760 --> 02:29:56,440
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: on our defense spending

1766
02:29:56,440 --> 02:29:58,440
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: compared to our regional peers,

1767
02:29:58,440 --> 02:30:00,260
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: particularly China.

1768
02:30:01,120 --> 02:30:06,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi yung kanilang defense expenditure is 52 times ng Pilipinas.

1769
02:30:07,220 --> 02:30:13,100
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Sa kanila, 335 billion US dollars or roughly 2.1 trillion pesos.

1770
02:30:14,560 --> 02:30:20,460
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So how do we compensate? How do we do a David against a Goliath in this regard?

1771
02:30:21,040 --> 02:30:23,540
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi wala naman tayo magagawa except mag-improvise, hindi ba?

1772
02:30:24,300 --> 02:30:27,060
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So meron ba tayong plano man lang?

1773
02:30:27,060 --> 02:30:31,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sir, the best way is to make ourselves an uninviting target.

1774
02:30:32,600 --> 02:30:43,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The hard part there is that an uninviting target would mean only our land domain,

1775
02:30:43,740 --> 02:30:51,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is only 20% of our total territory, 20 to 30%.

1776
02:30:51,440 --> 02:30:56,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, for the land domain to be resilient, we need full expansion.

1777
02:30:57,060 --> 02:31:01,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Exploitation and exploration of the 80% maritime domain.

1778
02:31:02,760 --> 02:31:05,860
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So yun ho ang nagpapakomplicate ng situation.

1779
02:31:06,560 --> 02:31:14,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero I believe ho that with the X billion reported by China,

1780
02:31:14,600 --> 02:31:19,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: this is even understated because a lot of the budget does not go to the PLA

1781
02:31:19,980 --> 02:31:25,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but to the maritime militia, the Coast Guard, which are basically under the PLA.

1782
02:31:25,880 --> 02:31:29,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But not officially reported.

1783
02:31:30,040 --> 02:31:37,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So there is no substitute ho but to build a level of resilience

1784
02:31:37,480 --> 02:31:41,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which will make it very unattractive for them.

1785
02:31:41,120 --> 02:31:48,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are ways ho and we can also in executive sessions share some thoughts on it, Your Honors.

1786
02:31:49,600 --> 02:31:55,180
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Can I see how we can match China, for example, sa mga warships, missiles?

1787
02:31:55,180 --> 02:31:55,760
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Wala tayo.

1788
02:31:55,880 --> 02:31:57,120
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Wala tayong verwidal.

1789
02:31:57,640 --> 02:31:59,260
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Let's accept the fact.

1790
02:31:59,880 --> 02:32:01,160
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So kailan mag-improvise tayo.

1791
02:32:01,800 --> 02:32:06,680
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Like what Ukraine is doing against Russia, for lack of a better analogy,

1792
02:32:07,560 --> 02:32:14,180
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: baka we should also embark on a similar program na less costly pero effective.

1793
02:32:15,180 --> 02:32:15,800
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: And we can match.

1794
02:32:15,860 --> 02:32:22,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Aside from, of course, our alliances, mutual defense treaties, yung ating SOPA,

1795
02:32:22,040 --> 02:32:25,040
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: and sabi nyo nga kanina, yung kapapasalamang na treaties,

1796
02:32:25,880 --> 02:32:27,320
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: treaty with France.

1797
02:32:27,960 --> 02:32:33,000
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So aside from that, but we cannot solely rely on our allies.

1798
02:32:33,280 --> 02:32:37,160
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi they have their own national interests to contend with.

1799
02:32:37,280 --> 02:32:38,820
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: In the first place, yung France, medyo magulo.

1800
02:32:39,800 --> 02:32:46,400
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So kailan mag-improvise tayo and I hope we are on the same page on this.

1801
02:32:46,560 --> 02:32:47,880
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: We cannot just divulge.

1802
02:32:48,360 --> 02:32:50,140
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Yung ongoing programs natin.

1803
02:32:50,240 --> 02:32:53,340
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: But I was told that there is such a program.

1804
02:32:53,640 --> 02:32:54,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meron, sir.

1805
02:32:54,120 --> 02:32:54,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ongoing.

1806
02:32:54,560 --> 02:32:55,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meron po.

1807
02:32:55,600 --> 02:33:11,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At kaya po, mire-focus na natin si Director Amano sa higher capabilities na pwede natin gamitin based on Ukraine.

1808
02:33:11,960 --> 02:33:15,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang maganda din pong halimbawa dito ay yung Vietnamese experience.

1809
02:33:15,940 --> 02:33:25,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Na talagang matatag din ang tayo nila sa China.

1810
02:33:25,600 --> 02:33:29,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At ginera na sila nung araw at hindi umubra.

1811
02:33:29,940 --> 02:33:38,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yun nga lang, iba talaga yung make-up ng Vietnamese society kesa sa atin.

1812
02:33:38,180 --> 02:33:40,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sanay naman talaga sila sa...

1813
02:33:40,740 --> 02:33:42,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yun ang balakid po sa atin.

1814
02:33:42,440 --> 02:33:47,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kaya kailangan ho its deterrence rather than retaliation.

1815
02:33:48,060 --> 02:33:50,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that's why ho in our alliances,

1816
02:33:50,160 --> 02:33:55,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we are focusing on the non-retaliatory features of...

1817
02:33:55,600 --> 02:33:57,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of our defense alliances.

1818
02:33:57,300 --> 02:34:03,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But focusing on the deterrence portion po.

1819
02:34:04,700 --> 02:34:09,040
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We will never match China in terms of pound-for-pound capability.

1820
02:34:09,040 --> 02:34:13,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But we will make the decision calculus as unfavorable to it as possible.

1821
02:34:14,260 --> 02:34:15,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That is the goal, Your Honor.

1822
02:34:16,200 --> 02:34:16,500
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Thank you.

1823
02:34:16,500 --> 02:34:18,920
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Well, my last question, Mr. Secretary.

1824
02:34:18,920 --> 02:34:20,980
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Last year, or just this year po,

1825
02:34:21,380 --> 02:34:23,300
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: when I was the Chairman of the Foreign Relations,

1826
02:34:23,300 --> 02:34:24,480
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I was able to talk to

1827
02:34:24,920 --> 02:34:25,420
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: two or three

1828
02:34:25,420 --> 02:34:25,920
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: ambassadors,

1829
02:34:26,300 --> 02:34:26,760
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: foreign nations.

1830
02:34:26,900 --> 02:34:27,340
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I believe,

1831
02:34:27,440 --> 02:34:27,820
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: yung isa po,

1832
02:34:27,900 --> 02:34:29,420
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: nakausap nyo na yung si Ukraine.

1833
02:34:30,140 --> 02:34:33,340
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: They are willing to put up a factory here,

1834
02:34:33,460 --> 02:34:33,900
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: maintenance,

1835
02:34:34,400 --> 02:34:34,820
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: et cetera.

1836
02:34:35,520 --> 02:34:36,060
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Matter of fact,

1837
02:34:36,080 --> 02:34:38,620
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: they're interested po dyan sa may Cavite

1838
02:34:38,620 --> 02:34:43,900
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: to help us with the drones.

1839
02:34:45,600 --> 02:34:48,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Have you also spoken to those diplomats?

1840
02:34:48,640 --> 02:34:50,640
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Then to other European countries,

1841
02:34:51,340 --> 02:34:54,040
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: very interested and willing to come here,

1842
02:34:54,140 --> 02:34:55,320
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: to invest actually,

1843
02:34:55,420 --> 02:34:58,500
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: provided that we purchase their equipments,

1844
02:34:58,500 --> 02:35:01,380
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: yung mga drones, sea and air.

1845
02:35:01,380 --> 02:35:03,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Marami na po, Your Honor.

1846
02:35:03,720 --> 02:35:12,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we are actually, some of those are in the final stages of scoping the engagement.

1847
02:35:12,960 --> 02:35:16,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Once again, all of these engagements, Your Honor,

1848
02:35:16,420 --> 02:35:24,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: will number one place is access securely and location and supply chains, Your Honor.

1849
02:35:25,420 --> 02:35:28,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We are pursuing, Your Honor,

1850
02:35:28,600 --> 02:35:32,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the best of our ability on a secure basis.

1851
02:35:33,320 --> 02:35:33,720
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Tama po.

1852
02:35:33,820 --> 02:35:34,880
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Kasi kung titusin, sir,

1853
02:35:34,960 --> 02:35:40,100
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: hindi po natin kaya bumili ng mga frigates and aircraft carriers, submarines.

1854
02:35:40,300 --> 02:35:43,660
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Then may options po tayo ng mga ikang mga drones.

1855
02:35:43,880 --> 02:35:45,040
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Sir, one last question.

1856
02:35:45,180 --> 02:35:45,740
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: I was just wondering,

1857
02:35:45,740 --> 02:35:49,760
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: may mga donations po tayo ng mga drones sa America, other countries.

1858
02:35:49,880 --> 02:35:51,280
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Whatever happened to these drones?

1859
02:35:51,380 --> 02:35:52,560
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Nagagamit po ba natin?

1860
02:35:53,540 --> 02:35:54,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Limited po ito. Sa

1861
02:35:54,740 --> 02:35:55,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: lahat po ng

1862
02:35:55,420 --> 02:35:56,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: dinownload nila, nagagamit.

1863
02:35:57,480 --> 02:36:00,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ang iba pong hindi nagagamit, yung nabili nung araw,

1864
02:36:01,860 --> 02:36:13,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na hindi po nag-fifit sa ating bagong C4 Command and Control Secure Communication Structures.

1865
02:36:14,960 --> 02:36:18,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, mula nung nagumpisa po tayong kumuha ng drones,

1866
02:36:19,920 --> 02:36:23,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang environment nun ay purely tactical.

1867
02:36:25,420 --> 02:36:29,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, sa ngayon po, nagiging strategic yung environment.

1868
02:36:29,660 --> 02:36:33,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kaya, kailangan po enhanced ang interoperability po nito.

1869
02:36:34,520 --> 02:36:37,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, that is where we are proceeding right now.

1870
02:36:38,080 --> 02:36:42,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: There are uses, ho, tactically for drones and they are being used.

1871
02:36:43,760 --> 02:36:48,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, for the bigger picture, ho, we need more multi-purpose drones

1872
02:36:48,000 --> 02:36:53,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and we need the facility for quality raw materials

1873
02:36:53,100 --> 02:36:55,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for this and

1874
02:36:55,000 --> 02:36:57,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Actually, precision tooling for it.

1875
02:36:58,060 --> 02:37:00,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It's the precision, ho, na kailangan, eh.

1876
02:37:00,820 --> 02:37:05,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And, when we learn from the Korean experience,

1877
02:37:06,120 --> 02:37:09,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang kanilang modernization started in 1976

1878
02:37:09,620 --> 02:37:16,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: when the United States said, hindi na nila susuportahan.

1879
02:37:16,160 --> 02:37:25,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But, the defense industry was only an offshoot of basic industry.

1880
02:37:25,360 --> 02:37:25,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor.

1881
02:37:26,540 --> 02:37:31,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because they had basic industry already,

1882
02:37:31,740 --> 02:37:39,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which would support the ecosystem for sustainability in the defense industry.

1883
02:37:40,780 --> 02:37:45,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Steel, electronics, and other capabilities.

1884
02:37:45,500 --> 02:37:50,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: If we do not also remediate basic industry, Your Honor,

1885
02:37:50,900 --> 02:37:55,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for example, the raw materials, secondly, power,

1886
02:37:55,280 --> 02:38:02,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we will be constrained to being an assembly location

1887
02:38:02,520 --> 02:38:09,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: also reliant on importation for our outputs.

1888
02:38:11,160 --> 02:38:14,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, we have to really structure it properly, Your Honor.

1889
02:38:16,100 --> 02:38:18,260
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Thank you, Secretary and Mr. Chair. Thank you.

1890
02:38:18,600 --> 02:38:20,100
Senator Erwin T. Tulfo: Thank you, our Senate President.

1891
02:38:20,420 --> 02:38:22,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Senator Erwin, for those interventions.

1892
02:38:22,860 --> 02:38:22,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Mr. President.

1893
02:38:23,500 --> 02:38:24,020
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you.

1894
02:38:24,020 --> 02:38:24,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: I will continue.

1895
02:38:25,280 --> 02:38:27,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Sekretary, yung points ni

1896
02:38:27,200 --> 02:38:29,040
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Senator Erwin at ni Senator Ping.

1897
02:38:29,700 --> 02:38:30,900
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Another way is

1898
02:38:30,900 --> 02:38:33,040
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: forging alliances with like-minded

1899
02:38:33,040 --> 02:38:34,960
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: countries. And this

1900
02:38:34,960 --> 02:38:37,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: last few months, na-approve

1901
02:38:37,100 --> 02:38:38,980
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: dito sa Senado yung treaty

1902
02:38:38,980 --> 02:38:41,220
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: for SOVA

1903
02:38:41,220 --> 02:38:43,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: in State of Visiting Forces

1904
02:38:43,340 --> 02:38:44,840
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Agreement with New Zealand

1905
02:38:44,840 --> 02:38:46,720
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: and also with

1906
02:38:46,720 --> 02:38:49,020
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: France. So dalawa po yung

1907
02:38:49,020 --> 02:38:49,640
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: na-approve.

1908
02:38:51,060 --> 02:38:52,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And Canada pala. And Canada.

1909
02:38:52,540 --> 02:38:54,420
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Tatlo. Are we looking at

1910
02:38:54,420 --> 02:38:56,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: more of these arrangements in the

1911
02:38:56,540 --> 02:38:58,220
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: next coming weeks? Kasi

1912
02:38:58,220 --> 02:39:00,560
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: ano ito eh? Kung hindi

1913
02:39:00,560 --> 02:39:01,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: natin, kung

1914
02:39:01,940 --> 02:39:04,380
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: challenge siya atin

1915
02:39:04,380 --> 02:39:06,480
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: ni modernization, at least in

1916
02:39:06,480 --> 02:39:08,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: training and interoperability

1917
02:39:08,860 --> 02:39:10,580
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: na-enhance with other nations.

1918
02:39:10,700 --> 02:39:12,680
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And this is also a signal

1919
02:39:12,680 --> 02:39:14,620
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: or a message that these

1920
02:39:14,620 --> 02:39:16,660
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: nations agree with our position in

1921
02:39:16,660 --> 02:39:18,540
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: defense and also geopolitics.

1922
02:39:19,980 --> 02:39:20,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor,

1923
02:39:20,560 --> 02:39:22,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: there are two more in the pipeline.

1924
02:39:22,880 --> 02:39:24,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I hope this can be concluded

1925
02:39:24,360 --> 02:39:25,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: as soon as possible.

1926
02:39:27,140 --> 02:39:27,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And

1927
02:39:27,440 --> 02:39:32,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in the other countries

1928
02:39:32,560 --> 02:39:34,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: where we have visiting forces

1929
02:39:34,380 --> 02:39:36,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: with, for purposes

1930
02:39:36,380 --> 02:39:38,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of scoping, we also

1931
02:39:38,400 --> 02:39:40,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: now, that's why we need

1932
02:39:40,440 --> 02:39:42,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the MOE participate

1933
02:39:42,000 --> 02:39:44,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in exercises outside

1934
02:39:44,400 --> 02:39:45,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the Philippines.

1935
02:39:46,260 --> 02:39:48,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, Your Honor, I give

1936
02:39:48,060 --> 02:39:50,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: an example, the Philippine Navy,

1937
02:39:50,400 --> 02:39:51,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the Philippine Army

1938
02:39:51,300 --> 02:39:53,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: participates in

1939
02:39:54,360 --> 02:39:57,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: exercise, I forgot,

1940
02:39:57,680 --> 02:39:59,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I cannot pronounce the name in

1941
02:39:59,300 --> 02:39:59,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Australia.

1942
02:40:02,240 --> 02:40:03,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Karubaru, which

1943
02:40:03,580 --> 02:40:04,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is an army exercise.

1944
02:40:05,760 --> 02:40:07,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The Navy participated

1945
02:40:07,760 --> 02:40:09,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in the U.S. RIMPAC

1946
02:40:09,500 --> 02:40:11,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: exercise for the first time

1947
02:40:11,440 --> 02:40:13,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: together with the Coast Guard.

1948
02:40:13,780 --> 02:40:15,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And the Air Force

1949
02:40:15,160 --> 02:40:17,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: participated in exercise

1950
02:40:17,340 --> 02:40:18,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pitch black in

1951
02:40:18,740 --> 02:40:21,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Australia, Your Honor,

1952
02:40:21,240 --> 02:40:23,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which actually

1953
02:40:23,240 --> 02:40:25,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because of the

1954
02:40:25,380 --> 02:40:26,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: enhancement

1955
02:40:26,840 --> 02:40:29,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the F-A-50

1956
02:40:29,080 --> 02:40:31,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that we made,

1957
02:40:32,580 --> 02:40:33,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the Philippine Air Force

1958
02:40:33,940 --> 02:40:35,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: was able to

1959
02:40:35,400 --> 02:40:37,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: interoperate with

1960
02:40:37,740 --> 02:40:39,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 21 other countries

1961
02:40:39,300 --> 02:40:41,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and for the first time lead

1962
02:40:41,440 --> 02:40:42,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a strike package.

1963
02:40:43,600 --> 02:40:45,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And that needs a different

1964
02:40:45,780 --> 02:40:47,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: level of qualification.

1965
02:40:48,620 --> 02:40:49,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So two of

1966
02:40:49,880 --> 02:40:50,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our

1967
02:40:50,640 --> 02:40:53,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: F-A-50 pilots,

1968
02:40:53,240 --> 02:40:55,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: our strike package

1969
02:40:55,820 --> 02:40:57,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: leaders, and more importantly,

1970
02:40:57,840 --> 02:40:59,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, which is

1971
02:40:59,400 --> 02:40:59,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: why

1972
02:40:59,800 --> 02:41:03,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the ecosystem is important.

1973
02:41:04,380 --> 02:41:05,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Everything was

1974
02:41:05,420 --> 02:41:06,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: controlled from the ground.

1975
02:41:07,340 --> 02:41:09,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: No voice anymore. It was all

1976
02:41:09,480 --> 02:41:11,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: keyboard. So

1977
02:41:11,320 --> 02:41:13,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we have graduated and

1978
02:41:13,560 --> 02:41:15,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: certified our first set

1979
02:41:15,600 --> 02:41:17,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of battle managers that are

1980
02:41:17,520 --> 02:41:19,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: qualified to

1981
02:41:19,120 --> 02:41:20,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: orchestrate

1982
02:41:20,560 --> 02:41:23,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: international air operations.

1983
02:41:23,180 --> 02:41:25,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And the

1984
02:41:25,280 --> 02:41:27,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we will continue to deploy them

1985
02:41:27,320 --> 02:41:28,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: because we cannot allow them to

1986
02:41:28,760 --> 02:41:30,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: lose that proficiency.

1987
02:41:30,800 --> 02:41:33,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is a constant exercise.

1988
02:41:33,640 --> 02:41:34,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So that

1989
02:41:34,800 --> 02:41:36,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that is another dimension,

1990
02:41:36,920 --> 02:41:39,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, our participation

1991
02:41:39,360 --> 02:41:41,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in foreign shores,

1992
02:41:41,180 --> 02:41:43,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which builds us the confidence

1993
02:41:43,300 --> 02:41:45,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: also of operating

1994
02:41:45,620 --> 02:41:48,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in an extended environment,

1995
02:41:48,620 --> 02:41:50,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: stretching also our logistics

1996
02:41:50,660 --> 02:41:52,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: capabilities. For example, Your Honor,

1997
02:41:52,800 --> 02:41:55,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in Australia,

1998
02:41:55,640 --> 02:41:58,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we have to deploy about

1999
02:41:58,300 --> 02:42:00,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: 200 personnel and

2000
02:42:00,880 --> 02:42:03,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: support them.

2001
02:42:05,060 --> 02:42:07,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And we

2002
02:42:07,640 --> 02:42:09,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: continue to gain

2003
02:42:09,280 --> 02:42:13,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: confidence and experience

2004
02:42:13,320 --> 02:42:14,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and knowledge

2005
02:42:14,800 --> 02:42:15,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: also

2006
02:42:15,780 --> 02:42:17,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in these exercises.

2007
02:42:17,300 --> 02:42:19,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So when we operate

2008
02:42:19,520 --> 02:42:22,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: outside, even on VFA,

2009
02:42:22,160 --> 02:42:29,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We get to scope also the fit for a future VFA for us.

2010
02:42:30,020 --> 02:42:37,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: The Philippine Marine Corps also participates also in exercises abroad

2011
02:42:37,480 --> 02:42:46,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and I have been encouraging them to participate elsewhere with like environments

2012
02:42:46,820 --> 02:42:53,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so that they can understand also better the operating environment

2013
02:42:53,340 --> 02:42:55,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and even the equipment, Your Honor.

2014
02:42:56,420 --> 02:43:03,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because we cannot hope to replicate our bigger country partners also in terms of deployment.

2015
02:43:03,460 --> 02:43:09,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: For example, one marine expeditionary unit of the United States for an exercise here,

2016
02:43:10,060 --> 02:43:12,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the pre-deployment is already almost a billion dollars.

2017
02:43:13,300 --> 02:43:16,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We can never hope to approximate that.

2018
02:43:16,160 --> 02:43:24,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But nonetheless, there are partner, the doctrine of, they deploy in force.

2019
02:43:24,820 --> 02:43:31,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: They will never deploy in a force package that is less than their doctrine

2020
02:43:31,460 --> 02:43:34,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and that goes for the U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Navy.

2021
02:43:35,220 --> 02:43:40,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: That's why a carrier, for example, Your Honor, is always a carrier group

2022
02:43:40,340 --> 02:43:46,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which has its own air group, its own small country,

2023
02:43:46,160 --> 02:43:55,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so it's also a question right now of scoping the best fit wherever in the world right now.

2024
02:43:56,220 --> 02:43:58,680
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Secretary, and you mentioned there are three more coming in.

2025
02:43:58,780 --> 02:44:02,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Are you at liberty to share with us kung sino pa yung mga...

2026
02:44:02,920 --> 02:44:06,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Negotiations are going on now, Your Honor, with the U.K.

2027
02:44:09,080 --> 02:44:11,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: With Germany, I think we're going to have one.

2028
02:44:11,540 --> 02:44:14,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But there is another country, Your Honor, where we sent a first draft

2029
02:44:14,900 --> 02:44:15,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and they would rather...

2030
02:44:16,160 --> 02:44:21,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I not disclose publicly until the process.

2031
02:44:21,500 --> 02:44:24,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But that third country is extremely important to us.

2032
02:44:25,320 --> 02:44:29,340
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: So bring us to how many SOVA treaties?

2033
02:44:30,620 --> 02:44:32,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So five plus three, eight, Your Honor.

2034
02:44:32,580 --> 02:44:33,120
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Eight na.

2035
02:44:33,220 --> 02:44:35,160
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Thank you, Secretary.

2036
02:44:36,640 --> 02:44:40,580
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Secretary, I'll go to some items in the 2026 budget

2037
02:44:40,580 --> 02:44:45,840
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: so we'll understand if we will continue this concept

2038
02:44:45,840 --> 02:44:46,140
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: in the 2026 budget.

2039
02:44:46,200 --> 02:44:48,160
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: In the 2027 budget...

2040
02:44:48,160 --> 02:44:52,120
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: In 2026, for locally funded infrastructure,

2041
02:44:52,940 --> 02:44:55,960
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: mayron 6.9 billion pesos.

2042
02:44:56,680 --> 02:44:59,840
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: And if you remember last year, this was from the...

2043
02:44:59,840 --> 02:45:02,000
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: DPWH transfer namin to

2044
02:45:02,000 --> 02:45:06,100
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: to DND, amounting to

2045
02:45:06,100 --> 02:45:07,940
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: 5.4 billion pesos because

2046
02:45:07,940 --> 02:45:09,980
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: nakita natin maraming mga

2047
02:45:09,980 --> 02:45:12,260
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: projects doon, hindi alam nung mga

2048
02:45:12,260 --> 02:45:14,160
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: mga end

2049
02:45:14,160 --> 02:45:15,600
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: users or

2050
02:45:15,600 --> 02:45:17,980
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: nadidelay or kulang yung pondo

2051
02:45:17,980 --> 02:45:19,920
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: hindi nako-coordinate

2052
02:45:19,920 --> 02:45:22,120
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: mabuti so we transferred it to

2053
02:45:22,120 --> 02:45:24,160
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: to

2054
02:45:24,160 --> 02:45:26,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: the DND

2055
02:45:26,200 --> 02:45:29,620
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: How is that experience?

2056
02:45:30,000 --> 02:45:32,300
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: Because that is

2057
02:45:32,300 --> 02:45:34,060
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: again a

2058
02:45:34,060 --> 02:45:36,640
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: reform that we instituted

2059
02:45:36,640 --> 02:45:37,780
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: in 2026

2060
02:45:37,780 --> 02:45:39,880
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: of course with

2061
02:45:39,880 --> 02:45:42,120
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: coordination with the DND

2062
02:45:42,120 --> 02:45:43,960
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: but is that more efficient

2063
02:45:43,960 --> 02:45:46,200
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: in terms of finishing

2064
02:45:46,200 --> 02:45:46,860
Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian: the projects?

2065
02:45:47,880 --> 02:45:49,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I believe it is more efficient

2066
02:45:49,900 --> 02:45:51,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: your honor in finishing the projects

2067
02:45:51,800 --> 02:45:53,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but if we will revisit

2068
02:45:53,840 --> 02:45:55,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the whole episode

2069
02:45:55,560 --> 02:45:57,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it is

2070
02:45:57,940 --> 02:45:59,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: also the lack of an

2071
02:45:59,580 --> 02:46:00,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: infrastructure plan

2072
02:46:00,980 --> 02:46:03,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the armed forces

2073
02:46:03,440 --> 02:46:05,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the Philippines and because

2074
02:46:05,500 --> 02:46:07,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the fact your honor that capital

2075
02:46:07,440 --> 02:46:09,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: outlay allocations

2076
02:46:09,020 --> 02:46:11,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: have not been funded

2077
02:46:11,540 --> 02:46:13,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the extent we require

2078
02:46:13,280 --> 02:46:15,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so what happened were

2079
02:46:15,600 --> 02:46:17,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: different units your honor

2080
02:46:17,700 --> 02:46:19,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: had to

2081
02:46:19,320 --> 02:46:22,700
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: had to

2082
02:46:22,700 --> 02:46:24,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: request

2083
02:46:24,760 --> 02:46:27,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for their own peculiar

2084
02:46:27,220 --> 02:46:28,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: infrastructure needs

2085
02:46:28,840 --> 02:46:29,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so

2086
02:46:29,580 --> 02:46:32,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the TICAS experience

2087
02:46:32,320 --> 02:46:33,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are small projects

2088
02:46:33,960 --> 02:46:36,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that are asked for by units

2089
02:46:36,160 --> 02:46:37,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: with

2090
02:46:37,280 --> 02:46:39,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: with

2091
02:46:39,360 --> 02:46:42,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the DPWH

2092
02:46:42,980 --> 02:46:44,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and the

2093
02:46:44,140 --> 02:46:45,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: budget at that time

2094
02:46:45,880 --> 02:46:48,280
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but now your honor I think

2095
02:46:48,280 --> 02:46:50,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the actual remediation

2096
02:46:50,360 --> 02:46:52,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is an infrastructure

2097
02:46:52,440 --> 02:46:54,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: program and plan

2098
02:46:54,360 --> 02:46:56,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so that we have standards

2099
02:46:56,780 --> 02:46:58,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: qualities

2100
02:46:58,080 --> 02:46:58,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and

2101
02:46:58,900 --> 02:46:59,560
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: actual

2102
02:46:59,580 --> 02:47:01,240
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: well thought of

2103
02:47:01,240 --> 02:47:03,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: areas

2104
02:47:03,600 --> 02:47:06,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: up to the battalion level

2105
02:47:06,600 --> 02:47:08,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at least your honor

2106
02:47:08,020 --> 02:47:12,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we had this perennial

2107
02:47:12,220 --> 02:47:13,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: problem really of

2108
02:47:13,980 --> 02:47:16,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: an offshoot

2109
02:47:16,160 --> 02:47:17,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of

2110
02:47:17,060 --> 02:47:22,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a question of

2111
02:47:22,260 --> 02:47:23,840
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: tenure

2112
02:47:23,840 --> 02:47:25,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the areas

2113
02:47:25,480 --> 02:47:27,960
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is why also

2114
02:47:27,960 --> 02:47:29,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: we are busy tightly

2115
02:47:29,520 --> 02:47:30,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: building all the lands

2116
02:47:30,820 --> 02:47:31,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: so we can

2117
02:47:31,520 --> 02:47:37,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: spend properly for quality

2118
02:47:37,820 --> 02:47:40,000
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: infrastructure in areas that we need

2119
02:47:40,000 --> 02:47:42,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and I believe

2120
02:47:42,160 --> 02:47:44,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a lot of the

2121
02:47:44,380 --> 02:47:47,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: TICAS projects

2122
02:47:47,420 --> 02:47:49,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: were offshoots of this

2123
02:47:49,220 --> 02:47:50,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but now we have a more

2124
02:47:50,900 --> 02:47:52,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: disciplined infrastructure

2125
02:47:52,800 --> 02:47:54,300
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: program your honor

2126
02:47:54,300 --> 02:47:57,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that we have minimum standards

2127
02:47:57,100 --> 02:47:58,760
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and locations and areas

2128
02:47:58,760 --> 02:47:59,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and moving forward

2129
02:47:59,520 --> 02:48:00,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: your honor

2130
02:48:00,820 --> 02:48:02,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think that is the greater

2131
02:48:02,820 --> 02:48:04,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: managerial remedy

2132
02:48:04,820 --> 02:48:06,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the phenomenon

2133
02:48:06,820 --> 02:48:10,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: some were really needed

2134
02:48:10,820 --> 02:48:12,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: your honor

2135
02:48:12,820 --> 02:48:14,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for example

2136
02:48:14,820 --> 02:48:16,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which is

2137
02:48:16,820 --> 02:48:18,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: in camps

2138
02:48:18,820 --> 02:48:20,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: that

2139
02:48:20,820 --> 02:48:22,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: have significant presence

2140
02:48:22,820 --> 02:48:24,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I think

2141
02:48:24,820 --> 02:48:26,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the phenomenon is also

2142
02:48:26,820 --> 02:48:28,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a

2143
02:48:28,820 --> 02:48:30,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: not confined

2144
02:48:30,420 --> 02:48:32,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: to the armed forces

2145
02:48:32,140 --> 02:48:33,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but also to the police force

2146
02:48:33,620 --> 02:48:34,200
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for example

2147
02:48:34,200 --> 02:48:36,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: a lot of camps

2148
02:48:36,360 --> 02:48:39,740
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: of the police force

2149
02:48:39,740 --> 02:48:41,620
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: are still AFP

2150
02:48:41,620 --> 02:48:42,900
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: PNP

2151
02:48:42,900 --> 02:48:44,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: joint camps

2152
02:48:44,520 --> 02:48:46,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and that is still an issue

2153
02:48:46,020 --> 02:48:47,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: which we have to resolve

2154

03:04:10,120 --> 03:04:11,600

03:04:11,600 --> 03:04:12,600

03:04:12,600 --> 03:04:15,020

3057
03:05:21,880 --> 03:05:23,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: that we will

3058
03:05:23,880 --> 03:05:25,880

3059
03:05:25,880 --> 03:05:27,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: actually po the

3060
03:05:27,880 --> 03:05:29,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: major issue with the navy

3061
03:05:29,880 --> 03:05:31,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: is not only the MOA but the

3062
03:05:31,880 --> 03:05:33,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: dockyard

3063
03:05:33,880 --> 03:05:35,880

3066
03:05:39,880 --> 03:05:41,880

3067
03:05:41,880 --> 03:05:43,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: it's unusable already

3068
03:05:43,880 --> 03:05:45,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and unsustainable as a dockyard

3069
03:05:45,880 --> 03:05:47,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: masyadong mababaw na po yung

3070
03:05:47,880 --> 03:05:49,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Sangli

3071

3072
03:05:51,880 --> 03:05:53,880

3073
03:05:53,880 --> 03:05:55,880

03:21:40,700 --> 03:21:42,080

03:21:52,420 --> 03:21:54,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: come from countries which

3563
03:21:54,220 --> 03:21:55,480

03:22:33,400 --> 03:22:35,100
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: now in the

3583
03:22:35,100 --> 03:22:36,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: multi-level,

3584
03:22:36,780 --> 03:22:39,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: multi-unit

3585
03:22:39,400 --> 03:22:41,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: depending on the

3586
03:22:41,500 --> 03:22:43,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: use of the

3587
03:22:43,400 --> 03:22:45,600
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: unmanned system

3588
03:22:45,600 --> 03:22:49,320

3590
03:22:52,500 --> 03:22:53,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi

3591
03:22:53,340 --> 03:22:55,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: at one stage, sa Army po,

3592
03:22:55,660 --> 03:22:57,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: sa Navy,

3593
03:22:57,400 --> 03:22:58,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: iba-iba ang gamit.

3594
03:22:59,540 --> 03:23:01,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero at the end of the day, pag nagiging

3595
03:23:01,500 --> 03:23:03,440
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: mas lethal ito or mas may

3596
03:23:03,440 --> 03:23:05,140
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: impact ito, at

3597
03:23:05,140 --> 03:23:07,320

3601
03:23:14,000 --> 03:23:15,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: pag lumalaki, kailangan

3602
03:23:15,500 --> 03:23:16,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: po mas

3603
03:23:16,380 --> 03:23:19,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: maagap

3604
03:23:19,160 --> 03:23:21,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang command and control dito.

3605
03:23:21,880 --> 03:23:22,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Kasi po,

3606
03:23:22,360 --> 03:23:24,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: maaring makumpromiso

3607
03:23:24,340 --> 03:23:25,640
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ang

3608
03:23:25,640 --> 03:23:26,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: system.

3609
03:23:30,080 --> 03:23:53,860
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I was just surprised and also impressed. Ito yung gawa ng, developed here. So probably it's worth exploring kung talagang kinakailangan tulungan. Probably we can also fund it para matulungan natin. Because sabi nga nung camp commander, [unclear], this would be the wave of the future na sa mga battles kasi kasama na rin po talaga yung drone development.

3610
03:23:54,520 --> 03:23:58,420
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Yes, Your Honor. We are taking a serious,

3611
03:23:58,420 --> 03:24:00,060
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and it's not serious.

3612
03:24:00,320 --> 03:24:02,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: We're implementing it

3613
03:24:02,020 --> 03:24:03,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: on a scalable basis.

3614
03:24:05,920 --> 03:24:06,480
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Likewise,

3615
03:24:06,800 --> 03:24:07,120
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Secretary,

3616
03:24:07,540 --> 03:24:09,440
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: naging ano ka rin na subject.

3617
03:24:09,820 --> 03:24:11,780
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I know that you have been very

3618
03:24:11,780 --> 03:24:13,700
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: firm in standing up

3619
03:24:13,700 --> 03:24:15,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: for our sovereignty.

3620
03:24:15,980 --> 03:24:17,940
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Madalas, subject na rin

3621
03:24:17,940 --> 03:24:18,720
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: kayo sa attacks.

3622
03:24:18,800 --> 03:24:20,720
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Ang nakakalungkot lang

3623
03:24:20,720 --> 03:24:21,940
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: na,

3624
03:24:22,360 --> 03:24:27,080
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: May mga lang Pilipino na hindi ko alam bakit ang kalaban naman natin dito,

3625
03:24:27,180 --> 03:24:32,000
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: China, dapat lahat tayo nagkakaisa doon pero meron silang mga kampi dito.

3626
03:24:32,780 --> 03:24:38,660
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Like recently, nung nakasaguta ko yung Chinese ambassador,

3627
03:24:39,020 --> 03:24:40,780
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: actually pinapractice ko lang yung Mandarin natin,

3628
03:24:40,880 --> 03:24:44,340
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: nakalimutan ko na kasi matagal tayong gumraduate galing Saber.

3629
03:24:44,340 --> 03:24:48,080
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Tsaka baka hindi niya naintindihan na yung West Philippine si Ate.

3630
03:24:48,240 --> 03:24:52,260
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Kaya in Chinese, sinabi ko sa kanya na West Philippine si Ate is ours.

3631
03:24:52,860 --> 03:24:57,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And nako, in 7 minutes, 500 comments ka agad.

3632
03:24:57,480 --> 03:25:04,320
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So do you think itong mga ito, Secretary, part of ng China ito,

3633
03:25:04,400 --> 03:25:11,780
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: na meron silang propaganda machine really to create siguro itong disunity among us?

3634
03:25:12,500 --> 03:25:15,020
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Meron po talaga. Meron po talaga.

3635
03:25:15,200 --> 03:25:20,520
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: At admitido naman po sila na part of the United Front Works po nila,

3636
03:25:20,640 --> 03:25:21,780
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: na pilar ng kanilang...

3637
03:25:22,360 --> 03:25:30,260
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ito po ay hindi state activity, kung hindi party activity ito.

3638
03:25:31,040 --> 03:25:33,320
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Katulad po ng People's Liberation Army,

3639
03:25:33,560 --> 03:25:38,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: hindi parehong organization po yan sa armed forces.

3640
03:25:38,340 --> 03:25:43,180
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because the PLA is not a sovereign state arm.

3641
03:25:43,400 --> 03:25:46,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It is a Communist Party of China arm.

3642
03:25:47,700 --> 03:25:48,800
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Separate siya.

3643
03:25:49,440 --> 03:25:52,340
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So talaga po, lahat ng galaw nito,

3644
03:25:52,360 --> 03:25:56,820
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: ay motivated by their central committee or standing committee.

3645
03:25:57,740 --> 03:26:04,660
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So ang propaganda is the reason also for being of the People's Republic of China.

3646
03:26:05,440 --> 03:26:07,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: It was born through subversion.

3647
03:26:09,840 --> 03:26:13,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: When, you know, espionage, subversion.

3648
03:26:14,280 --> 03:26:20,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And as with a lot of communist governments.

3649
03:26:20,160 --> 03:26:20,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Although,

3650
03:26:22,360 --> 03:26:24,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: mga po nagpalit ng anyo.

3651
03:26:24,360 --> 03:26:38,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: What is, what we observe po dito na dito sa China ang pinakamatinding regime legitimacy support operations ang kanilang foreign policy.

3652
03:26:39,120 --> 03:26:43,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So talaga pong part and parcel ng kanilang taktika.

3653
03:26:44,620 --> 03:26:49,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: And makikita naman po natin eh na with a straight face sasabihin that is ours.

3654
03:26:49,940 --> 03:26:51,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Na wala po silang karapatan.

3655
03:26:52,360 --> 03:27:00,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Ngayon, ang pagka ho hindi tayo manindigan laban sa narrative na yan, manonormalize po yan.

3656
03:27:00,360 --> 03:27:04,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Manonormalize yan, sasabihin nila, tinanggap nyo na eh, wala kayong i-make.

3657
03:27:04,360 --> 03:27:10,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, mabuti na ho manindigan tayo kaysa sa mawala pa sa atin by default.

3658
03:27:10,360 --> 03:27:14,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Secretary, we commend you for standing up doon sa Singapore, no?

3659
03:27:14,360 --> 03:27:17,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Nangyayari yun, when you were, sa Seoul ba yun?

3660
03:27:17,360 --> 03:27:17,860
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Singapore.

3661
03:27:17,860 --> 03:27:19,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: No? Singapore and Seoul.

3662
03:27:19,360 --> 03:27:21,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: When you were [unclear] with this

3663
03:27:21,360 --> 03:27:23,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: question, no?

3664
03:27:23,360 --> 03:27:25,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Na talagang obviously it was planted.

3665
03:27:25,360 --> 03:27:28,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So, ah, we commend you for standing up.

3666
03:27:28,360 --> 03:27:30,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Sir Chairman, as an aside, ano?

3667
03:27:30,360 --> 03:27:34,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Ah, kaya siguro subject ng, ah, troll attacks si Secretary Guibo.

3668
03:27:34,360 --> 03:27:38,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Kasi wala pa nakaka-match doon sa, sa mga fora na naatin na niya.

3669
03:27:38,360 --> 03:27:41,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: Wala pa nakaka-match doon sa kanyang brilliance.

3670
03:27:41,360 --> 03:27:44,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, so doon lang sila bumabawi.

3671
03:27:44,360 --> 03:27:47,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: By way of troll attacks, et cetera, et cetera.

3672
03:27:47,360 --> 03:27:50,360
Senator Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson: So, yeah, I second the motion, no?

3673

DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, I mean, the, the expression, ah, in Seoul was instinctive on my part.

3695
03:29:53,360 --> 03:29:59,360
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Pero, you cannot avoid also that it is based on my experience, ah.

3696
03:30:00,000 --> 03:30:11,460
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Taking guidance from the President with our experience with the Senate and with each and everybody.

3697
03:30:11,460 --> 03:30:16,720
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I'm just the expression of the collective voice of the institution, Your Honor.

3698
03:30:17,320 --> 03:30:24,080
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Credit is also due to those individuals and institutions I have mentioned.

3699
03:30:24,080 --> 03:30:30,100
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we commend you again, Secretary, for that, for standing up for our sovereignty.

3700
03:30:30,260 --> 03:30:33,580
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Nakakalungkot lang na may mga ilan dito.

3701
03:30:33,740 --> 03:30:38,700
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Nakakatawa eh, China yung ano natin dito, ang ating katunggali.

3702
03:30:39,300 --> 03:30:43,640
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Pero sandali lang, ang bilis na may ilang Pilipinas rito, mga troll.

3703
03:30:44,560 --> 03:30:47,140
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Dinidepensa pa yung China, tayo pa yung inaano.

3704
03:30:47,860 --> 03:30:52,240
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Itong mga ito, dapat bordering on ano ito, treso na ba ito siguro?

3705
03:30:52,240 --> 03:30:59,240
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Diba? Sabi ko, mas masahol ba ito sa kalaban, yung pagiging trader sa sariling bayan.

3706
03:31:00,800 --> 03:31:04,240
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So again, we commend you for that, Secretary Teodoro.

3707
03:31:05,740 --> 03:31:09,860
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yun na lang po, siguro last before we wrap up,

3708
03:31:10,120 --> 03:31:18,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: we also noticed that may budget na nawala doon sa ating disaster response.

3709
03:31:19,300 --> 03:31:21,360
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Considering that there is a pending El Niño

3710
03:31:22,240 --> 03:31:31,180
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: coming next year, itong Super El Niño, may effect ba yung, tanong ko lang,

3711
03:31:31,240 --> 03:31:35,820
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: 9.4 billion sa Calamity Fund na natanggal po sa inyo.

3712
03:31:35,820 --> 03:31:41,860
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I am just worried that we have to be prepared for this.

3713
03:31:42,240 --> 03:31:43,780
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So ano po maging effect na ito?

3714
03:31:43,880 --> 03:31:45,280
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Hindi ko nga alam kung saan daw nangyari.

3715
03:31:45,900 --> 03:31:50,140
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Whether it was brought to the Department of Agriculture, baka naman diretsyo nila.

3716
03:31:50,680 --> 03:31:51,820
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Pinakita rin kasi kami rin.

3717
03:31:52,240 --> 03:31:55,140
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Direct assistance to farmers and fisher folks.

3718
03:31:55,500 --> 03:31:58,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So, your position, Secretary?

3719
03:31:58,840 --> 03:32:04,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Your Honor, it will not affect because as the Senate President knows,

3720
03:32:04,480 --> 03:32:06,120
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: as far as last year is concerned,

3721
03:32:07,000 --> 03:32:14,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: I said that the Calamity Fund, it's best downloaded to line agencies where we do the coordination.

3722
03:32:15,900 --> 03:32:21,480
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: However, for some projects, for example, the integrated logistics centers,

3723
03:32:22,240 --> 03:32:30,920
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for DSWD, DOH, in select areas where, because right now,

3724
03:32:31,500 --> 03:32:36,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the warehouses, for example, Your Honor, are in Region 3, for example,

3725
03:32:36,640 --> 03:32:43,540
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: the two repacking areas of the DSWD, I was informed, were flooded.

3726
03:32:43,540 --> 03:32:52,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, I talked to Senator Gatchalian and offered an area in Fort Magsaysay,

3727
03:32:52,240 --> 03:32:59,980
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: for the repacking beside the runway, which is an ideal logistics location.

3728
03:33:00,820 --> 03:33:09,880
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, just to fund the ideal logistics locations, whether it be DSWD or OCD,

3729
03:33:10,340 --> 03:33:20,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: since it will be done also in military bases because of the air transport

3730
03:33:20,380 --> 03:33:21,380
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: and sea transport.

3731
03:33:22,240 --> 03:33:27,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: So, that's the only requirement, Your Honor.

3732
03:33:27,280 --> 03:33:32,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Because now, if we have to augment in the Visayas and Mindanao,

3733
03:33:32,700 --> 03:33:40,160
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: but it's good that there is already a supply by Secretary Sherwin,

3734
03:33:41,540 --> 03:33:49,500
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: Secretary Rex Abinicio, so we just have to fill the gap.

3735
03:33:49,500 --> 03:33:52,220
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But normally, before, this used to emanate.

3736
03:33:52,240 --> 03:33:56,400
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: From Metro Manila yet, which is not logistically ideal.

3737
03:33:57,620 --> 03:34:01,580
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: But the downloading to other agencies, that's their function, Your Honor,

3738
03:34:01,700 --> 03:34:02,940
DND Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro Jr.: why we do the coordination.

3739
03:34:06,660 --> 03:34:13,320
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: With that, before we end, liwanagin lang natin, hindi natin ina-attack ang Chinese people.

3740
03:34:13,880 --> 03:34:15,380
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Wala tayong bad blood sa kanila.

3741
03:34:15,940 --> 03:34:19,400
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I came from a Chinese school, sa Saber School, pareho kami ng Secretary.

3742
03:34:19,700 --> 03:34:21,400
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: We both grew up with our...

3743
03:34:22,240 --> 03:34:25,520
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Our Chinoy friends, batchmates and schoolmates.

3744
03:34:25,700 --> 03:34:28,100
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we still love our Chinese friends.

3745
03:34:28,260 --> 03:34:32,520
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And recently, I also became an ambassador of a Chinese tire manufacturing company.

3746
03:34:32,660 --> 03:34:33,840
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I use a Chinese vehicle.

3747
03:34:34,700 --> 03:34:37,560
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: So, katulad nyo, marami rin akong gamit na galing China.

3748
03:34:37,660 --> 03:34:39,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: We welcome the people from all backgrounds.

3749
03:34:40,140 --> 03:34:43,160
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: And we have valued the friendships and relationships we have built over the years.

3750
03:34:43,220 --> 03:34:46,800
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Pero malinaw po ang ating paninindigan, ang ating values.

3751
03:34:46,800 --> 03:34:51,900
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Ang question natin ay ang aksyon ng Chinese government sa ating West Philippine Sea.

3752
03:34:52,240 --> 03:34:56,540
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: I'm sure yan din po ang pinaglalaban ng ating Secretary and the whole DND family.

3753
03:34:57,080 --> 03:34:58,980
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Hindi ang ordinaryong mamamayang Chinese.

3754
03:34:59,620 --> 03:35:04,980
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yes, we can respect the Chinese people without turning a blind eye to the actions of their government.

3755
03:35:05,100 --> 03:35:07,940
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yung gobyerno naman nila po ang ating pong...

3756
03:35:07,940 --> 03:35:13,060
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yung kanilang ginagawa sa ating pong teritoryo, sa ating mangingisda,

3757
03:35:13,160 --> 03:35:15,020
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: at syempre sa ating Coast Guard, sa ating Navy.

3758
03:35:15,260 --> 03:35:17,420
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Yan ang ating hindi po tayo pabor.

3759
03:35:17,420 --> 03:35:21,880
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: We stand for mutual respect, but we will also stand firm in defending our country's

3760
03:35:22,240 --> 03:35:24,920
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: Sovereignty and the dignity of our people.

3761
03:35:25,180 --> 03:35:29,400
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: We also reiterate our staunch support for the DND and the Armed Forces

3762
03:35:29,400 --> 03:35:33,580
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: in fulfilling its sworn mandate to defend our national interests.

3763
03:35:34,200 --> 03:35:36,020
Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito: With the consent of our Senate President,

3764
03:35:36,240 --> 03:35:38,180
