Thank you, Committee Secretary.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000032

Magandang umaga po sa ating lahat.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000033

As we begin our deliberations on the proposed budget or budgets of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000034

the Optical Media Board, the Film Development Council of the Philippines, and the Philippine Racing Commission,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000035

I'd like to emphasize that these agencies may appear to operate in very different fields,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000036

but they share one important responsibility, protecting the public,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000037

interests while supporting industries that contribute to our economy, culture, and livelihood of our people.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000038

Ang budget po ng pamahalaan ay pera po ng taong bayan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000039

We all know that.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000040

Kaya sa bawat pisong ilalaan natin sa mga ahensya ninyo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000041

dapat malinaw kung saan ito gagamitin, ano ang kongkretong resulta, at paano makikinabang ang ating mga kababayan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000042

Let's tackle, first, the budget of the MTRCB.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000043

For MTRCB, we have...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000051

For MTRCB, the agency was given under 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 75.29 million pesos.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000052

For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 49.99 million.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000053

Today, Filipinos are consuming content not only through traditional television and cinema,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000054

but also through streaming platforms and various digital channels.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000055

Our children, in particular, have unprecedented access to content.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000056

We, therefore, need to ask whether a regulatory framework is keeping pace with these changes.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000057

Second, the Optical Media Board.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000058

For OMB, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 47.03 million.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000059

For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 53.462 million.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000060

The media landscape has dramatically changed.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000061

CDs and DVDs...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000062

We have moved into a digital environment where content can be copied, downloaded, distributed, streamed, and reproduced almost instantly.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000063

This raises an important question.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000064

Is the Optical Media Board still operating with the mandate and systems appropriate for today's digital economy?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000065

We need to make sure that public funds are being used efficiently,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000066

that the agency is responding to actual threats to intellectual property and legitimate businesses.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000067

Third, the Film Development Council of the Philippines.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000068

For FDCP, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act, a total budget of 367.35 million pesos.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000069

For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 311.74.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000070

The Philippine film industry is not merely an entertainment industry.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000071

It is part of our cultural identity.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000072

It is also a potential source of jobs, tourism, investment, and international recognition for Filipino talent.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000073

We have Filipino filmmakers, actors, writers, directors, animators, cinematographers, editors, production workers, and other creative professionals

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000074

who have demonstrated that we can compete internationally.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000075

But government support must translate into real opportunities for Filipino workers and filmmakers.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000076

We should therefore examine how FDCP's program are benefiting independent filmmakers,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000077

regional filmmakers, young artists, and emerging talents that only establish names in the industry.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000078

Finally, the Philippine Racing Commission or FILRACOM.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000079

For FILRACOM, the agency was given under the 2026 General Appropriations Act,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000080

a total budget of 199.76 million pesos.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000082

For fiscal year 2027, it is requesting a total budget of 202.85 million pesos.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000083

The horse racing industry is not simply about betting or entertainment.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000084

It involves breeders, trainers, jockeys, veterinarians, farm workers, racetrack employees,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000085

and thousands of families whose livelihoods are connected to the industry.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000086

Ibig sabihin po, nakapagbibigay po siya ng trabaho.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000087

We therefore need to ensure that FILRACOM is effectively regulating the industry,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000088

protecting the integrity of horse racing,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000089

and making sure that the government revenues generated from the sector are properly accounted for and maximized.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000090

I would therefore like to know whether FILRACOM proposed budget is sufficient to strengthen regulation,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000091

improving monitoring, modernize its system,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000092

and ensure transparency in the collection and utilization of racing revenues.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000096

These four agencies operate in different sectors, but they face a common challenge.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000097

The world is changing faster than our regulatory and support systems.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000098

Horse racing is becoming more technologically driven.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000099

Media piracy is becoming increasingly digital.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000100

Television and film consumption are moving toward online platforms.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000101

And the creative economy is becoming increasingly global.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000107

Therefore, our budget deliberation should not simply ask how much money does the agency need.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000108

We should ask more important questions like,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000109

what will the Filipino people get in return for the budget given to you?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000110

Every allocation must have a corresponding public benefit.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000111

We need stronger accountability, measurable outcomes, efficient use of resources,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000112

and programs that directly benefit Filipino workers, consumers, artists, and entrepreneurs.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000113

At the end of the day, ang budget po ay hindi lamang numero sa papel,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000114

buhay, trabaho at serbisyo publiko ang nakasalalay dito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000115

Kaya ngayong deliberasyon, I look forward to hearing from your agencies,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000116

your respective offices, their concrete plans, their accomplishments, their challenges,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000117

and most importantly, how they intend to ensure that every peso entrusted to them

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000118

by the Filipino people will be put to good use.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000119

Maraming salamat po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000120

Okay, on that note, let us proceed with the briefing proper.

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000331

We are open to answering the questions.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000332

Okay. Well, I have

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000333

several questions here for you,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000334

Chairwoman.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000335

First,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000336

on online regulation.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000337

If Congress expands MTRCB's mandate to online platforms, kasi po ngayon parang marami na pong lumalabas pag binuksan mo ang TV, may mga Netflix, et cetera, et cetera, social media and online games, is MTRCB ready technologically, financially and organizationally to assume that responsibility?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000338

First, Mr. Chairman, I would like to emphasize that the MTRCB is not for prohibition but for regulation.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000339

We will accept the challenge if the legislators would include the said online services, streaming platforms,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000340

the subscription video on-demand services in our jurisdiction or our provision.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000341

However, it would entail a lot of coordination with the said stakeholders, such as the OTTs, the over-the-top, and the online streaming services.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000342

Kasi pag minsan, late at night, when I turn my TV, when I get home, I watch some movies.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000343

Nakakagulat na lang, bigla na lang may kubot-kubot na babae dyan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000344

And I didn't know that.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000345

A young man, my son, behind me was like looking also.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000346

So, I don't know.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000347

Kung nangyari nga sa akin, maybe sa ibang mga household na wala naman kasing restriction when you turn on dahil subscription po yun.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000348

So, yun po yung tinatanong natin, can we do something about it?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000349

I mean, kaya nga, if we're given by Congress an expanded mandate, can you do it?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000350

And when can you do that?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000351

Mr. Chairman, if I may, it would be, yes, it would be feasible.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000352

Yes, the MTRCB can do it.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000353

But I would like to reiterate that it is only the regulation that we can do.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000354

I'd like to clarify that the movies that will be exhibited in the online streaming platforms do not need to go through prior constraint,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000355

which is what we are really pushing for, even in the past hearings.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000356

I have observed.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000357

Already mentioned, with regard to the online streaming and the subscription video on-demand services,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000358

what we need from them is to establish a very effective feedback mechanism

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000359

where they will commit to accountability and responsiveness to the MTRCB

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000360

for when complaints are raised and expressed to the said online streaming provider,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000361

their share.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000362

So, there should be an answer.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000363

There should be a commitment that they will work on these concerns

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000364

and that they're very much willing to help the MTRCB.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000365

Currently, we are working with Netflix and HBO and Disney,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000366

and they've been very cooperative.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000367

I'm happy to share, Mr. Chair.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000368

However, with the rampant problems that we are facing today,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000369

I think it is faced globally.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000370

We really need to reiterate that this regulation,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000371

as possible,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000372

but we would need their cooperation and their coordination as well.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000373

All right.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000374

Because my concern, ma'am,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000375

is the growing violence in schools right now

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000376

because kids are watching online games,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000377

yung access po nila sa mga online games.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000378

Do you have any steps to address this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000379

Kaya pa paano?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000380

Though you don't have these powers yet,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000381

which are being linked to violent online games and violent content,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000382

yung nangyari po sa Samwanga,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000383

I mean, isang online game po yun na nire-record pa nung bata yung shootout na yun,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000384

may steps po ba kayo?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000385

Are you already talking about this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000386

How do you, your agency, will control this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000387

And I don't know if OMB can also help us on this matter.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000388

Sure.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000389

Currently, Mr. Chairman,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000390

it is not under the purview of the MTRCB

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000391

with regard to online gaming and video games

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000392

as it is a totally different structure from what we are currently doing.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000393

But we have explored

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000394

and we are continuing the discussions on this exploration.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000395

And I would like to yield to the Executive Director of the MTRCB

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000396

for the reporting of the exploratory researches we've made.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000397

Thank you.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000398

Senator,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000399

as regards violence in social media,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000400

while it is a different area,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000401

because MTRCB, as we are saying,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000402

we are involved only in sa content, no?

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000403

And unfortunately, online contents,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000404

hindi pa rin sa amin.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000405

But there are studies globally

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000406

regarding this violence in media, in social media.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000407

One of them is the,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000408

do not amplify regulatory principle for social media,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000409

which means we can,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000410

as a country,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000411

can create policies that require major platform

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000412

to address algorithmic amplification of violent content,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000413

recommendation of increasingly extreme material,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000414

autoplay of violent videos,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000415

viral circulation of graphic violence,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000416

monetization of violent content,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000417

and recommendation of violent material to minors.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000418

If there will be a law

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000419

na hahawakan ang iyong mga social media na ito,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000420

we can tell them na dapat hindi naka-autoplay ang mga violent content

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000421

sa mga materials natin.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000422

Dapat hindi, kung pwede, hindi ma-monetize.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000423

Because sa totoo lang,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000424

isa sa mga,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000425

sa mga motivation ng mga content creators,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000426

syempre, mamamonetize yung gagawin nilang content.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000427

If these videos, at yung mga violent videos,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000428

sex videos, ay made-demonetize,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000429

I think, mababawasan yung mga ganong materials.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000430

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000438

Yun nga po, as I said, a while ago,

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000439

violent content should not be algorithmically recommended,

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000440

graphic content should be age-gated.

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000441

Autoplay.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000442

violent content should be

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000443

disabled. Accounts should

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000444

have stronger privacy settings.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000445

Live streaming should have enhanced

safeguards. Repeated

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

exposure to violent content should trigger

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

asr-000448

additional safeguards.

Source

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

There are also studies

MTRCB Executive Director Roberto Diciembre

We should treat live streaming

differently from ordinary posts

because

And the Chairperson of the

asr-000513

Committee is with me now.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000514

However, I'd like to answer the question

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000515

first.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000516

The MTRCB has its own monitoring

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000517

inspection unit along with our

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000518

deputies and the board members who go around the different cinemas and we do our monitoring

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000519

inspection consistently. That helps us identify the violations or the violators,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000520

especially in the cinemas. But we also do our own inspections around the country wherein we go

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000521

to the different communities and identify the unregistered cable companies as well.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000522

Okay. Sa non-display or innocent display permit to exhibit,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000523

what are the common violations encountered during monitoring and inspections?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000524

Unregistered cable companies, Mr. Chair, fake, tampered permits to exhibit.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000525

Okay. Isa pa ho yung medyo kontrobersyal na nai-palabas na po sa online. Ito pong

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000526

Lost Sabungeros. Does the MTRCB have the authority to refuse to review a film because

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000527

its subject matter is allegedly subjudice? Or is the board's mandate precisely to review the material,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000528

determine whether it violates the law, and then give it to the appropriate classification?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000529

Because if you refuse to review the film in the first place, aren't you preventing the producer

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000530

from exercising the very appeal process?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000531

So, what are the policies that the MTRCB supposed to provide?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000532

Mr. Chairman, first of all, yes we are in the process of reviewing our reassessing our processes.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000533

However, I just want to clear this up. That regarding the Lost Sabungeros movie,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000534

the board consistently reviews each and every material that is submitted to us carefully.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000535

And it would not be detrimental to...

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000536

nor a disservice to the Filipino viewers to ask for additional requirements consistent with our subjudice rule

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000537

because this is only an exercise of prudence for an administrative agency that is a regulatory body as well.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000538

Okay. Dito naman po tayo moving sa live television shows.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000539

Following the recent It's Showtime controversy yung memory mar segment,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000540

what concrete measures po is MTRCB implementing to prevent violations during live broadcast para hindi na po maulit din ito sa ibang mga program

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000541

rather than simply penalizing programs after the fact?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000542

With regard to Showtime and this question, Mr. Chairman, I would yield to the Chairman of the Committee on Adjudication, Attorney Jojo Salomon.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000543

Good morning, Senator.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000544

As regards to the memory mar segment,

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000545

we called the production for an adjugatory hearing.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000546

And in that hearing, we discussed how they can prevent this from happening again.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000547

And in so doing, we required them to assign a compliance officer who would monitor their program as it airs.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000548

So this compliance officer will be the one responsible to the MTRCB.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000549

In case of live violations.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000550

And also, we required them to undergo a compliance seminar,

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000551

which we do to all violators of MTRCB rules.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000552

We conduct compliance seminars and we teach them how to avoid violating the rules of the MTRCB.

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000553

And we inculcate in their minds that the importance of following the rules is not really to avoid penalties,

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000554

but to ensure that we...

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000555

protect viewers from

Source

MTRCB Board Member Antonio Ricardo ?Jojo? Salomon Jr.

asr-000556

inappropriate materials.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000557

If I may recall, when I was

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000558

still on TV, when we had

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000559

a program before,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000560

may plan ng

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000561

MTRCB, I know it's not during

Makita na maiwasan kung nagmura,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000569

kung ano, parang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000570

Tape Us Live. Natuloy ba? Whatever happened to that?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000571

There was a plan. I think several years

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000572

ago na, okay, entire

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000573

program, one-hour program,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

15-minute segment, unahin na

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000575

Tape Us Live para mapanood

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000576

din ang MTRCB and then go. I think

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000577

nagawa din dati yun. Pero whatever happened

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000578

to that? Mr. Chairman,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000579

that's something that I did not

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000580

encounter during my term

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000581

in the MTRCB.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000582

However, these

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000583

are suggested

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000584

as well to

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000585

the live shows. But it's not up

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000586

to the MTRCB. We cannot

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000587

impose on the producers

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000588

and the shows on the

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000589

type of permit that they want, whether it be

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000590

taped or lived or Tape Us Live.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000591

It would be on them.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000592

Do you have control o meron po ba kayong policy na for example, bisita, guest or viewer doon sa studio, nakita ng host, lalaitin, pangit, bungi, duling, etc., pagtatawanan pero bibigyan ng premyo? Is that proper?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000593

I mean, yung tao, siyempre, nakikisama, natutuwa din pero nagiging tuksuhan, finufocus, pilay, bulag, duling, bingi, itim, etc., etc. Parang nilalait yung tao. What is your take on that?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000594

The MTRCB disapproves of such behavior and they are consistently reminded. We have compliance seminars for the shows and the hosts as well.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000595

Taken care of by their own production, their respective productions, Mr. Chairman. However, it is already in the process with the MTRCB that they have their own continuing workshops with, no, we have our continuing workshops with them so that they are reminded.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000596

Because we also cannot take it away from them, in fairness to the live television programs, that this is something...

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000597

that they are used to because they do it every day.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000598

But as a chairperson, maybe it's okay with that person na tinutukso. But for others, na viewer, na baka may anak siyang gano'n, may asawa siya, may kapamilya siyang gano'n na offend.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000599

So how do you balance that?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000600

O, nakikisama yung audience, di ba? Kakatuwaan. But then again, pag yung nanunood sa bahay, meron siyang...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000601

Anak na kapareho, nilalait, tinutukso, putot, itim, bungi, buduling. How is that?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000602

We call their attention, Mr. Chair. And then, yes, perform the workshop, perform the compliance with them. They are reminded as well.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000603

And these are, I'd like to reiterate that we do not tolerate, the MTRCB does not tolerate. We are trying very hard, Mr. Chairman, to preserve our Filipino cultural family values.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000604

I understand sa overseas, yung mga stand-up comedy, masking yung viewer, nilalait. Pero when it comes to these shows na general patronage, mga bata, nakikita, di ba?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000605

So it's really different. Sa mga stand-up comedy shows, hindi naman po, may rating po yata. Pag may mga stand-up comedy shows tayo, may mga rating po yan. Unlike sa mga live shows na ito, wala po yata.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000606

So kaya nga yung dapat yung...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000607

So kaya nga yung dapat yung mga host will be reminded to watch out na may mga children po nanonood during the live show.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000608

Anyway, moving forward, I have a few more questions, Chairperson Antonio.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000609

How much is the current balance of this sinking fund? At paano po ito nagagamit ng MTRCB kung hindi po ito tineturn over sa Treasury?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000610

Currently, Mr. Chairman, I'm happy to share that we have reached 641 million in our sinking fund.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000611

This is from our own revenue, and it just stays there. This is a special fund in the general appropriations, in the general fund, in the National Treasury.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000612

To be able to access...

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000614

To be able to access or utilize the sinking fund for the MTRCB, to access or utilize the sinking fund, it is subject to the approval of the Department of DBM.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000615

Okay. Isa pa po napansin ko kanina during your presentation na you said you exceeded your target revenues. What years that was? 2025 going to 2026?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000616

Every year, Mr. Chairman.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000617

Every year.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000618

You exceed our target.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000619

You exceed.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000620

Who sets the target for revenues?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000621

The DBM sets the target.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000622

The DBM.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000623

Well, that's very good. Very good answer.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000624

Lastly po, lastly, what are the budget wish lists of the MTRCB that this committee may prioritize?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000625

First of all, Mr. Chairman, I would like to request for the increase in the board compensation.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000626

As you know, the board reviews hundreds.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000627

And thousands of materials every year on a daily basis.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000628

I have consistently made both active and documented efforts, Mr. Chair, in my four years of being a chairperson of the agency, to request for the increase in their board compensation.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000629

However, the reason that we got from the DBM is that we would need a legal or a statutory basis.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000630

For this to happen.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000631

Well, we'll see about that.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000632

What about the expansion of office?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000633

Yes, you would need an extension of the MTRCB office.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000634

My staff already in the office.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000635

Lahat po ba? Sorry, Mama.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000636

Lahat po ba kayo nag-office doon sa Timog, Quezon City?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000637

Sa maliit na three floors na building.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000638

In fact, my staff are already in the hallway.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000639

We came up with desks, makeshift desks, outside my office in the hallway just to make everybody fit.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000640

Okay. Is that all?

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000641

Yes, Mr. Chairman.

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000642

In preparation for if ever there will be an expansion, we would need an advancement in technology or the AI equipment,

Source

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

asr-000643

which we could further study after research.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-000644

Thank you.

MTRCB Chairperson Diorella Maria ?Lala? Sotto-Antonio

[unclear] We will be presenting a short briefing on what transpired during the Optical Media Board. Okay, first slide please. As we all know, the Optical Media Board was created under Republic Act 9239, in which the OMB is mandated to promote the protection of intellectual property rights, specifically copyright, by regulating the mastering, manufacturing, importing, exporting, distribution and selling of optical and magnetic media.

OMB OIC Chairperson Dennis Lorenzo B. Pinlac

asr-000688

When we say magnetic media, ito rin po yung mga, ano, yung mga hard disk drive na nasa computer natin, as well as its technical variations thereof. Okay. The vision of the Optical Media Board is an economy which is free from optical media piracy, wherein there is a level playing field for all legitimate players. Of course, our mission is to promote and protect intellectual property in digital form.

At present, the OMB?s mandate is sixfold. First is the permits and licenses. Second, we are also empowered to conduct proactive inspections, and to act as complainant, and to hear and resolve administrative cases, and create and maintain a database of licensed media and establishments, as well as establish support offices when necessary. For our fiscal performance as of last year,

asr-001173

filmmakers for the production of their

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001174

films. And then

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001175

for the capital outlay from the continuing

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001176

fund, we were able to

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001177

obligate 10 million out

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001178

of the 11 million that was

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001179

allotted to us already

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001180

leaving us a 90.4

asr-001181

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001184

And then for the 2027

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001185

NEP approved budget,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001186

we were given

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001187

314 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001188

This has a 15% decrease

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001189

from the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001190

GAAT 2026 that

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001191

FDCP has received

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001192

which is

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001193

amounting to 55%

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001194

around 55 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001195

We would also like to note that there is

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001196

no

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001197

allocation for capital outlay

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001198

for the agency for this year.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001199

Last year we had 4.7

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001200

million which was allocated for our

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001201

ICT

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001202

equipment and requirements.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001203

Next slide

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001204

please. Just

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001205

for the breakdown of the 2027

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001206

NEP approved budget,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001207

so for that, for

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001208

the 314 million,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001209

so 61 million of that

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001210

is allocated for

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001211

our

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001212

general administration and support

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001213

covering the OOE and the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001214

personal services. So basically

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001215

that's for the maintenance of the building, supplies

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001216

and other operating expenses.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001217

And then for the operations of the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001218

programs and projects,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001219

we have a total of 250

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001220

and out of that

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001221

amount, 20 million,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001222

20.1 million is allocated

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001223

for the personal services.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001224

And 230 million,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001225

0.4 is allocated for the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001226

MOE, which covers

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001227

for the incentives that we are providing

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001228

for our filmmakers, capacity building

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001229

initiatives such as training labs,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001230

and then other assistance and support,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001231

as well as the salary of our

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001232

COS personnel. We would like to note also that

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001233

we have 146 personnel right now

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001234

and 97 personnel of that are under the contract of service or

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001235

JO status.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001236

And the next

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001237

is for the Film Heritage Preservation

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001238

and program, which is basically

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001239

for the archiving.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001240

We have a total budget of 8.4

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001241

million and

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001242

2.2 of that amount is

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001243

for the personal services. And the MOE

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001244

is 6.2 million. The 6.2

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001245

is just allocated for

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001246

maintenance of vaults and of

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001247

our presentation equipment.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001248

It does not include a budget

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001249

for restoration of films, which cost 2 to 5 million per film,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001250

depending on the status of the reels or the films that will be restored.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001251

And then for the RLEAP or the automatic appropriations,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001252

we have 2.6 million budget for next year.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001253

Next slide, please.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001254

This is just the breakdown of the budget per division or per section of our program.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001255

Again, for the personnel services, we have 38.3 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001256

That's across from general administration, the FIPDP,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001257

or the Film Industry Promotion Development Program,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001258

and the Film Heritage Preservation Program.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001259

And then we also have a budget of 45.6 million for GAS.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001260

And again, 37.3 million for the salary of...

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001261

of our COS personnel and other mandatory expenses.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001262

So it's taking a lot of our budget in terms of implementing of our programs.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001263

And then for the Education Division, we are allocating 21.2 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001264

For Festivals Division, this includes our support for our regional film festivals

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001265

and participation of Filipino filmmakers and FDCP for international film festivals.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001266

And then for the Exhibition Division, we have 12.2 million budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001267

Basically, this is for the operation of our four Cinematheques and the OneFlix application, streaming platform.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001268

And then for the Film Philippines Office, we have allocated 58.3 million budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001269

This is the biggest chunk among the budget because this is the incentive programs that we provide

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001270

in promoting the Philippines as a filming location for foreign production.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001271

And then for the Production Support Unit, we are allocating 51.6 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001272

This is also...

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001273

This is the second highest for the budget allocation that we have for all the programs of FDCP.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001274

Again, this is a production incentive.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001275

And then these two programs, the Film Philippines Office and the Production Support Unit,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001276

given that they have the biggest chunk of the budget,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001277

they are also giving us the most economic return ratio,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001278

ratio meaning that...

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001279

for the incentives that we are providing for the Film Location Incentive Program,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001280

there is a 1 is to 13 economic return ratio,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001281

which means for every 1 peso grant that we are providing, 13 pesos goes back to the economy.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001282

Those projects are purely foreign projects that are shooting here in the Philippines.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001283

And then for the projects that are co-produced by Filipino producers,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001284

the economic return ratio is 1 is to 16, meaning for every 1 peso that we provide as grant,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001285

16 pesos goes back to the economy.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001286

And then for the local production grant that we are providing,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001287

there is a 1 is to 6 economic return ratio,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001288

meaning 1 peso grant, 6 pesos goes back to the economy.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001289

So the local film production really has benefits in terms of our economic growth.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001290

And then other divisions, the Office of the Chairman and the OED,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001291

as well as the Special Projects Unit,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001292

we have a budget of 6.5 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001293

And then for the Policy and Planning Division,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001294

we have 6.5 million budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001295

For the Communications Unit,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001296

we have 1.8 million budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001297

And again, for the Philippine Film Archives,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001298

you only have 6.2 million budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001299

And a total of 276.94 million budget for the MOOE of the agency.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001300

So that's it for the breakdown of our 2027-F approved budget.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001301

And of course, we have a wish list.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001302

So basically, we have cut down some of our programs

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001303

that are already growing.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001304

And hopefully, we could be able to have some of these be granted.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001305

On the list is the film incentives.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001306

We have a request of 109.8 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001307

That's for the backlogs because the incentives that we are providing to our grantees are in tranches.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001308

So the 109 million accounts to the second and third tranches of the grants.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001309

And then for the 2027 Film Location Incentive Programs,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001310

we would like to request additional 120 million

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001311

because it's expected that we will be releasing around 120 million for five projects,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001312

which could bring in half a billion pesos in the country for their shooting here.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001313

And

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001314

next is for the film licensing for Interagency Program and Philippine Embassies Program.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001315

We are requesting 1.1 million because we are also supporting our posts abroad

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001316

when they conduct Filipino film festivals or other cultural activities that are related to film.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001317

And of course, purchase of production equipment accessories for our Cinemathèque amounting to 1.1 million,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001318

as well as projectors for our Cinemathèque amounting to 1.1 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001319

And then we have quite a lot of requests.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001320

So we also have requested 895,000 for our Cinemathèque Center Programming,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001321

World Day for Audiovisual Heritage and Pelikula ng Bayan Caravan,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001322

documentado in Asian cinema.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001323

So we would like to highlight that the Pelikula ng Bayan activity is basically,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001324

we are going around different towns.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001325

and cities in the country to showcase various films,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001326

particularly classic films that we have restored.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001327

And then the Cine 50, we are requesting additional 1.5 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001328

This is showcasing various films at a lower price of ticket amounting to only 50 pesos.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001329

And then additional value of 11 million for features,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001330

film love, documentary love,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001331

bring in here Filipino,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001332

and festival town hall meeting and engagements amounting to 1.7 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001333

And OneFlix Cinemathèque Integrated Marketing Promotions, 2 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001334

OneFlix Anniversary and Films for Peace Short Film Competition, 1 million again.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001335

And then for the Group 2 list of our wish list.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001336

So the first request is amounting to 451,000

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001337

for the procurement of preservation supplies

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001338

and 551,000 for the procurement of digitization equipment and photo scanner

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001339

because with the advent of continuous growing of technology,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001340

we really have to update and upgrade the equipment that we have

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001341

for the preservation and archiving facilities that we have.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001342

And another 50 million for the restoration of 59 titles

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001343

for 2027.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001344

So we have already identified films that we can restore in 2027.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001345

So these are of historical importance to the country

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001346

and some of it really necessitates or time of the essence

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001347

because the film is already deteriorating.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001348

So the total amount request for the Film Heritage Preservation Program is 51 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001349

And then lastly for the General Management Services,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001350

we are also requesting additional 2 million

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001351

for the distributed antenna system for Philippine Film Heritage Building

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001352

because as it is right now, there is no signal in the building.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001353

And we usually have events because we have a Cinemathèque in the building

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001354

so we are bringing in a lot of people, students in the area

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001355

and we don't have signal because it's a dead spot.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001356

And another 2 million for the quality ISO certification

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001357

because we are hoping that the agency would be ISO certified as well.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001358

And then hopefully we could also come up with another behind the reel

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001359

CISO next year amounting to 3.2 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001360

It's important because it allows the young generation of filmmakers

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001361

to have access to discussions among key personalities in the industry

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001362

or pillars of the industry.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001363

Next is a 1.5 million request for the procurement of the humidifiers

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001364

for Cinemathèque centers.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001365

It's because the building design requires us to have the humidifiers

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001366

because right now because of its design,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001367

it grows a lot of molds whenever we have this rainy season.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001368

So we are also requesting additional 1.5 million for that.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001369

So a total of 8.7 million for the GMS or the General Management Service.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001370

Total breakdown for the wishlist that we have is 311 million pesos.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001371

And I would like to pass on the floor to our chairman.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001372

Just some points of clarification why the Cinemathèque

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001373

Oh, I'm sorry.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001374

Just a point of clarification why the Cinemathèque.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001375

The Cinemathèque are micro cinemas which are located in various provinces.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001376

There is one in Bacolo, there is one in Iloilo, and there is one in Davao.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001377

But then we hopefully will be able to build more Cinemathèque before 2028

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001378

when this administration would have to step down

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001379

being coterminous with the present administration.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001380

Why the Cinemathèque?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001381

Because these are not only venues for showing films

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001382

but it has become also a cultural hub

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001383

for regional filmmakers to get together

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001384

and have their activities in these various venues.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001385

So it's almost an imperative, it's almost a need

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001386

for, you know, to provide the venue for regional filmmakers

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001387

as well as cinemathèque

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001388

to see the problem

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001389

to see the problem of digitalization.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001390

I've done over 100 films as a director

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001391

and I've come to realize that maybe 80% of them are already dead films.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001392

Because if you allow these, especially those shot in cells as negatives

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001393

the level of deterioration is very quick.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001394

Now, unless we are able to preserve these, to digitize these

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001395

and preserve these immediately

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001396

we might even lose more films.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001397

What is so sad is some of the masterpieces we have restored

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001398

were not recovered here in our country but abroad.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001399

So these are some major priorities.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001400

We also have a priority, Mr. Chairman, in terms of incentives.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001401

Mapakatotoo na tayo na hindi natin kayang pantayan ang incentives

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001402

na binibigay ng ibang bansa dahil sila ay mas mayaman

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001403

at ang gobyerno nila ay mas may maluwag na magbigay ng pera

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001404

para mahingkayat ang mga tao na mag-shoot sa kanila.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001405

Ang ating tanging panlawan lamang ay magagaling ang mga Pilipino

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001406

sa kanilang ginagawa at tayo ay nagsasalita ng wikang Ingles.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001407

Kaya mas madali para sa foreigners na pumunta dito.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001408

Ang laki-laking economic benefit kapag nagsushoot dito ang mga foreigners.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001409

Why? Number one, hindi lamang yung mga tao sa pelikula ang kumikita.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001410

May exchange of technology.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001411

At ikalawa, ang daming ancillary businesses na nakikinabang

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001412

tuwing may nagsushooting dito.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001413

Wishful thinking ito na sana mas matulungan at sana mas madagdagan

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001414

ang incentives na magbibigay natin.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001415

But we're also being very realistic in terms of the priorities of the government

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001416

as to where they would put the tax pay.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001417

Mr. Chairman, let me cut in.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001418

Could it be?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001419

Could it be na incentives lang kaya hindi tayo makapaghikay?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001420

Or there may be other reasons.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001421

Are you also looking to the fact na maaring peace and order

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001422

kaya ayaw pumunta dito ng mga artista or political turmoil

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001423

na medyo turn off para sa kanila, na medyo magulo tayo dito,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001424

nag-aaway, may mga kinasuhan ng mga opisyal ng gobyerno.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001425

Couldn't be some of those are some of the reasons kung bakit

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001426

na turn off sila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001427

Bakit ako magsushoot dyan?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001428

Rally dito, rally doon, sigawan dito, yung vicepresidente nila nandoon,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001429

kinakasuhan, yung mga opisyal nila nakakulong, ilang mga miyembro na senado,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001430

et cetera, or I would siguro prefer a place na kamukha na Pilipinas pero tahimik,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001431

like Thailand, tahimik siya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001432

E dito lang tayo kaysa baka mapunta tayo, madamay tayo sa gulo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001433

Hindi niyo ba naisip yan na maaring hindi lang doon sa incentive?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001434

Ano?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001435

Naka-factor in na rin po yun.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001436

Naka-factor in po yun dahil ang perception ng mundo sa Pilipinas,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001437

lalo-lalo na sa ngayon at kung ano-ano ang lumalabas sa balita

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001438

at hinahighlight ng balita ay isang factor yan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001439

Pero ang napaka katakataka, hindi naman katakataka,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001440

ang lalo nakakalakas ng loob, Mr. Chair,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001441

is na dito pa rin sila pumupunta.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001442

Okay, in spite and despite, dito pa rin sila pumupunta.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001443

Pero hindi po natin mapapagkaila na ang perception nila ng Pilipinas

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001444

ay a very big factor in not only in the movie industry

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001445

but the entire business setup.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001446

Okay, naka-factor in po yan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001447

Okay.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001448

Okay, my next question will be

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001449

yung hinihingi po ninyong proposed budget na 425 million, ano po,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001450

pero 314 million lamang nasa NEP.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001451

At meron pa kayong 311 million na sa wish list.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001452

Alright, so,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001453

if kukumputin ho ninyo yan,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001454

parang bakit po umahabot sa 625 million

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001455

ang inyong total funding requirement

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001456

kung 425 million lamang ang inyong original proposal, Ms. Rachel?

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001457

Actually po, one is for the film restoration.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001458

The team who's handling the restoration has submitted us their proposal

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001459

which is amounting to 50 million.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001460

Just recently, when they were able to identify,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001461

the titles.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001462

And that was even before the budget call of the DBM

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001463

was conducted early January or January this year.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001464

And then for the additional budget, again,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001465

is from the incentives

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001466

because the cycle 2 opened last September

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001467

and several film productions,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001468

both for foreign and local, have applied.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001469

And they're all good projects.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001470

And based on their application,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001471

again, they are spending a lot here in the country.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001472

So, we're just wondering if we can give more

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001473

or we can accept more applications

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001474

and approve their applications for the incentives

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001475

because they might look for another country

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001476

or alternative country if we don't give that incentives to them.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001477

We just finalized the deliberation last month.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001478

So,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001479

those budgets are factored in in our wish list that was presented earlier.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001480

If I can add to that, Mr. Chair,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001481

kasalanan ko yung isa yun sa preservation

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001482

kasi pinahanap ko kung ano pa yung mga magagandang pelikula

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001483

na maa-access natin na pwedeng ma-restore.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001484

And it takes time to find all these

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001485

until we came up with a list na,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001486

ay, ito pa lang, restorable.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001487

Kaya hindi na-factor in yun sa una.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001488

At sa kakalawa, maganda po yung problema na

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001489

ang dami-dami nag-a-apply

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001490

na kumuha ng mga grants and incentives

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001491

to be able to shoot here in the country

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001492

and at the same time

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001493

to have Philippine film workers

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001494

join in in these productions.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001495

So, it's a good problem

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001496

which eventually became a budgetary problem.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001497

Going back to film restoration,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001498

how does the FDCP ensure

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001499

that restoring a project or a film

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001500

is technically feasible and cost-effective

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001501

before public funds are allocated?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001502

Baka di naman natin mabawi.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001503

Baka wala nang,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001504

yung mga interest,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001505

yung mga black and white,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001506

naging brown and white,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001507

may manunood pa ba noon?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001508

Hindi na kilala ng mga kabataan ngayon,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001509

mga nangamatay na yung mga tao na yun.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001510

And baka boring yung sa inyo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001511

mga film directors, of course.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001512

Meron po kayong keen,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001513

may eye po kayo na maganda ito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001514

Pero sa ordinary viewer,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001515

lalo mga kabataan ngayon,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001516

mga Gen Z, Gen X, Gen Y,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001517

eh, hindi sa kanila ikang kaakit-akit.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001518

I'll answer.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001519

I'll answer that in two points, Mr. Chair.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001520

Firstly, before we restore a film,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001521

we make sure that the film is still restorable.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001522

Okay?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001523

We have technical people assessing

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001524

the state of the negative

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001525

or the state of the print

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001526

if it is still accessible

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001527

or it is still restorable.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001528

There are certain cases in which

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001529

the film is just so damaged

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001530

that we don't pursue it anymore

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001531

because it's going to cause an arm and a leg

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001532

and your next reincarnation

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001533

in order to completely restore it.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001534

Ikalawa,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001535

about the new generation

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001536

appreciating old films.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001537

I will use an example of what happened

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001538

last September 4

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001539

at the opening of the

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001540

Philippine Film Industry Month.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001541

For the first time,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001542

ang mga Gen Z at Gen Y and Gen X

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001543

napanood ang tinimbangka,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001544

ngunit kulang.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001545

At nagulat sila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001546

Pero, Mr. Chairman,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001547

hindi kayo, baka mga yung nanood na yun

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001548

ay mga estudyante

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001549

na mga ang courses nila

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001550

ay nasa film.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001551

Ay, ay, hindi po.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001552

Hindi po.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001553

It was a real cross-section of people.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001554

And as a matter,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001555

a real fact,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001556

may mga request kami

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001557

to show the film commercially.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001558

Okay, to make it more accessible

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001559

in commercial cinemas.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001560

Kaya lang,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001561

ito, ang tragedy niyan,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001562

yung arming agreement

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001563

sa showing ng tinimbang

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001564

has to be non-commercial.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001565

Kasi hindi na pag-aari ng Pilipinas

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001566

ang tinimbang.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001567

Pag-aari na ito

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001568

ng isang French company.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001569

And for order for us

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001570

to be able to show it,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001571

we need permission from them

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001572

and the permission requires

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001573

it's non-commercial.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001574

So we can only show it

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001575

in cinematext

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001576

or special festivals.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001577

Pero meron pong clamor.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001578

Meron pong clamor.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001579

Noong in-announce namin

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001580

na ipapalabas ang relasyon

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001581

ni Vilma Santos

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001582

at ni Christopher De Leon

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001583

by the national artist

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001584

Ismael Bernal,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001585

the excitement was just electric.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001586

Even in cinematext,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001587

I would greatly attribute it

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001588

to the fact that

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001589

sa Intermoros,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001590

we're right in the hub

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001591

of various schools.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001592

Never na bakante ang cinematext

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001593

at ang mga bata ang nanonood.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001594

At ito yung mga bata

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001595

na hindi lamang nag-aaral ng pelikula

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001596

but these are students

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001597

of various disciplines

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001598

who are interested

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001599

in watching a free movie.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001600

Okay?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001601

And we're showing them classics.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001602

Yes.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001603

Right.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001604

Sir, nabanggit po ninyo

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001605

yung cinematext.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001606

How often do we use this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001607

Kasi you're saying na

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001608

we have to construct more.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001609

Eh kung once a year lang po gamitin,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001610

baka masayang naman.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001611

Eh bakit hindi na lang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001612

mag-renta lang tayo

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001613

ng isang sinihan dyan

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001614

sa SM?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001615

O, parintang nga nito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001616

Dito na kami mag-exhibition.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001617

Why?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001618

Okay.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001619

Alam nyo po,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001620

kagagaling ko lamang sa Iloilo.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001621

Okay?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001622

Kung saan tayo may cinematext.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001623

Gamit na gamit

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001624

at bugbog sarado

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001625

ang mga cinematext doon

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001626

dahil hindi lamang yan

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001627

for film showing.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001628

Dyan din nagmi-meeting

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001629

at nagkakaroon ng cultural events.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001630

Okay?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001631

They use it as a kind of hub

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001632

for cultural events.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001633

In cinematext in Manila,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001634

bugbog sarado yan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001635

When we were still in TM Kalaw,

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001636

ang tanging pumigil lang sa amin

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

and more so

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

a knowledge of tradition.

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

Yung ni-restore nila dati

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001677

Gumagana na po ba yun?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001678

Or under you?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Sa inyo po yun

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

We have partnership

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001696

with NCCA

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001697

for screening

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

The Met,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001700

Hiyas ng Sining.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

Most of our classic films

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001704

are being programmed

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001705

at the Met

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001706

aside from the Cinematheque.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001707

I think it's also being used

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001708

by NCCA

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001709

for their other

Walang pumapasok.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

Marami po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001720

Despite na pagpadaan ako

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001721

parang sarado lang.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001722

Despite the parking problem,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001723

ang daming nanonood doon.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001724

Ayun.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001725

Okay.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001726

Dati ko kasi

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001727

nag-aaral pa ako

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001728

sarado it.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001729

Sabi niya

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001730

binahayan na lang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001731

daw ng mga asuwang.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001732

Anyway,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001733

moving forward, sir.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001734

Maybe FDC

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001735

can submit to this committee

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001736

its top three budget

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001737

wish list

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001738

that we may prioritize po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001739

No?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001740

Maybe we can consider

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001741

some of FDCP's request.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001742

Pero masyado pong malaki lang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001743

ang 311.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001744

So kailangan mo siguro

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001745

yung talagang top priority

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001746

lang po ninyo

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001747

para pwede nating ilaban po ito

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001748

dyan sa ikanga plenary.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001749

Because they will be asking me.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001750

Definitely,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001751

they will ask me

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001752

ano ang pinaka-priority

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001753

ng FDCP

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001754

dito sa wish list niya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001755

Anyway,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001756

earlier we discussed

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001757

the budget of OMB

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001758

based on a special provision

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001759

under 2026 GAAR.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001760

FDCP will absorb

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001761

the affected personnel

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001762

of OMB.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001763

May we know

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001764

if this is feasible?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001765

Can FDCP absorb

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001766

the personnel of OMB?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001767

Naawa naman ho

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001768

kasi tayo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001769

Kasi,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001770

pawalan ang trabaho.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001771

Ayaw naman,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001772

pare-pareho tayo sa gobyerno.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001773

Ayaw ko naman

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001774

mawalan ho ng trabaho

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001775

itong mga kasama natin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001776

So,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001777

is it possible?

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001778

In fact,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001779

Mr. Chair,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001780

when the GAAR

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001781

was,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001782

when we received

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001783

the GAAR,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001784

as early as January,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001785

we had a consultation

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001786

meeting with OMB.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001787

We checked on their

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001788

manpower resources

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001789

and how it would be

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001790

aligned to our

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001791

manpower as well.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001792

And,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001793

while there are some

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001794

plantilia positions

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001795

that we can

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001796

accommodate

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001797

and absorb,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001798

there are also

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001799

manpower component

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001800

of them that we cannot,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001801

like the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001802

investigators,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001803

intelligence officers

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001804

that I think

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001805

would not be relevant

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001806

to FDCP.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001807

So,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001808

we also had a meeting

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001809

with DBM

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001810

and CSC.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001811

And,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001812

we were told

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001813

that if ever

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001814

that we will be

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001815

absorbing

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001816

all the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001817

plantilia position

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001818

of OMB,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001819

they have to issue

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001820

an executive order

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001821

and also

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001822

realigning

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001823

or absorbing

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001824

some of their mandates.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001825

So,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001826

that's still

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001827

ongoing with

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001828

DBM

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001829

for the

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-001830

optimization plan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001831

Thank you.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001832

DBM,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001833

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Ito po yung question natin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001837

Alright.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001838

Paano nga ho

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001839

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001841

itong OMB,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001842

syempre,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001843

but then we have to

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001844

absorb some of its personnel.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001845

Do we have enough

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001846

funds for

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001847

kung hindi man sa

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001848

kagaya yung sinasabi nila,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001849

they don't need

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001850

investigators.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001851

Saan ho kaya

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001852

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001853

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Ano hon direction

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001857

We have to absorb

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001859

Ang mga regular

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

and whether it will be placed under the FDCP po or the IPO field po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001953

All right. I have another question for you, DBM.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001954

According to the Statement of Appropriations, Allotment, Obligations, Disbursement and Balances,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001955

posted on the DBM website, as of June 30, 2026, around P127.671 million from the 2025 GAA has not yet been released to FDCP.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001956

What is the reason for the delay?

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001957

Yes, Mr. Chair. For the unreleased balances, this will be subject to the submission of the special budget request po from the FDCP

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001958

prior to the release of the OMB.

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001959

So, yun pong balance po, out of the P127 po, we received po the request from the FDCP for the release po nung a total of P109.25 million po.

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001960

Out of this po, yun pong P15 million po is already for approval and release na po.

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001961

And then po yun pong P7.9 million po will be subject to...

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001962

further evaluation po and coordination po with the FDCP for the submission po of other supporting documents po to address some inconsistencies in the submitted supporting documents po.

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001963

And then po yun pong P86 million po, we just received the request po last September 3 and we already ongoing evaluation po.

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001964

So, as of this date po, ang remaining balance na lang po na wala pa pong request

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001965

kaming na-receive is 18 million na lang po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001966

18 million for the 2026?

Source

DBM OIC Division Chief Evita D. Fontanilla

asr-001967

For the 2025.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001968

For the 2025?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001969

Hindi ba kailangan ninyo, Chairman Reyes, yung 18 million?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001970

Kailangan, kailangan po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001971

Bakit po marami kayong budget ah?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001972

Hindi po. Bukas sa bukas po, i-request na namin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001973

Panguling katanungan na lang, Sir.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001974

Can you do something about it, about this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001975

May mga ilang po mga kasambahay na sa lubong ko kahapon sa subdivision.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001976

Sabi ko, saan kayo pupunta?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001977

Sa Kuanho, Sir, manunood kami ng sine.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001978

Sabi nung isa, kaso napakamahala ng ticket po ngayon, ng sinihan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001979

Doon lang po kami nagde-date nung driver ng kapitbahay din nila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001980

E paano ito? Can we do something about this?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-001981

Medyo mahalo eh. Medyo pataas ng pataas eh.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001982

Totoo po yun. Dahil kasi ang foreign firms, sumaabot 400.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001983

Pag nasa IMAX ka pa, 4 digits na binabayad nyo.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001984

But we already talked to some of the foreign firms.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001985

We already talked to some of the foreign firms.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001986

We already talked to SEAP, that is the Cinema Exhibitors Association of the Philippines.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001987

Binabaan na nila ang Filipino films.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001988

Ang ginagawa ng producer, kinakausap ang cinema exhibitors at naibababa.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001989

Right now, it's going at around 200 to 220 to 270 as compared to 400 sa foreign firms.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001990

Pero mataas pa rin yun kung tutuusin mo.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001991

Kung sa regular minimum wage earner, hindi po ba?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001992

Pero yun lang ano eh.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001993

May limitasyon yung pwedeng pakialam namin dahil that is a private entity eh.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001994

Hindi kami pwedeng makaka-

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001995

We also asked the DTI to help us with this.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001996

Pero limitado yung powers namin to intervene.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001997

But in fairness to SEAP, they're trying to cooperate.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001998

As a matter of fact, September 12 po, which is tomorrow, lahat ng sinihan 100 pesos.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-001999

Yung Philippine Cinema Day.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002000

Whether it is foreign or local, 100 pesos.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002001

Nag-agree sila.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002002

But these are of course exceptions to the rule.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002003

Kaya rin po may program kami yung Pilikula ng Bayan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002004

Nagpapalabas kami for free sa mga open spaces, sa mga LGU endorsed spaces.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002005

Para makapanood tulad nung kabataan ko, nanonood ako ng sine sa basketball court.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002006

Okay.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002007

Kaya rin po ba yung pag-i-inspect sa mga sinihan na yan or is it MTRCB?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002008

MTRCB po yan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002009

Na ikang conducive pa rin na pag may sunog, maka-exit yung mga tao.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002010

MTRCB yan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002011

Ah, kasi nung bata ako, nakapunta ako, nanonood ako ng pelikula.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002012

Paglabas ko, kamot ako ng kamot, ang dami na palang surot.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002013

Yung iba naman, munti ako nadulas.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002014

Pagpasok ko sa sear, napakadulas dahil yung pelikula po, X-rated, Susmar Yosef.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002015

Kaya mabuti, wala ko nakita mga tiyanak ko doon.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002016

Trabaho nyo ba yung kaninong trabaho yan na yung sinihan maganda pa rin naman?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002017

Na yung worth yung binabayad mo?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002018

Okay.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002019

Kaya lahat po yan, ang City Engineer's Office ang in-charge doon.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002020

Ang sa MTRCB, yung mga himalang nagaganap sa loob ng sinihan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002021

Dati po, may mga raid pa po ganun.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002022

Oo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002023

Yun yung mga...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002024

Dalawang tao, yung isa walang ulo, yung isa...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002025

Yung dami yung nahuhulim na mga players.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002026

Dami rin po yan.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002027

Kamisang po sa comfort room, apat ang paa, hindi ba?

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002028

Kaya lahat po yan, trabaho po yan ng mga deputy ng MTRCB.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002029

At saka yun naman sa structural, sa City Engineer's Office.

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002030

Kung...

Source

FDCP Chairman Jose Javier Reyes

asr-002031

Lalo po yung mga fire exits.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002032

Yeah.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002033

Apo, importante po yan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002034

Alright, okay.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002035

Anyway, sir, last na lang po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002036

Ang absorption po ng FDCP sa OMBI under the special provision po ng GAAP.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002037

Batas na po yan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002038

Hindi ba dapat sundin na?

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-002039

In as much as we want, Mr. Chair, pero we are also bounded by the Optimization Act,

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-002040

Government Optimization Act.

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-002041

So, ang advice din po ng DBM at CSC, we have to go through the submission of...

Source

FDCP Executive Director Rachelle Villaluna

asr-002042

the optimization plan and then they will have a hearing for that and discuss if there's really a need for the FDCP to absorb the personnel of OMBI.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002043

Alright, thank you.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002044

Well, since there are no more questions from this chair, the fiscal year 2027 proposed budget of the Film Development Council of the Philippines now being submitted for plenary consideration subject to the discussions and submission.

Source

asr-002045

of requested documents.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002046

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002047

The FDCP delegation is permitted to leave the room.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002048

Thank you, po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002049

Thank you, po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002050

Hearing suspended.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002088

We now proceed with the presentation of the proposed budget of the Philippine Racing Commission.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002089

Chairman de Leon, please proceed with your presentation and thank you for patiently waiting.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002090

Dr. Edwin, Mr. Chair, salamat sa opportunity for us to present our budget for 2027.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002091

As we all know, Philippine Racing Commission created 52 years ago by Presidential Decree No. 420 by President Marcos Sr.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002092

So, we are mandated to provide employment to the Philippine people and generate taxes for the government.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002093

So far, we are providing more than 5,000 direct and indirect employment to the Philippine people.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002094

And at the same time, we are also producing OFW to Japan, Australia, and other parts of the country.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002095

As of now, there are more than 2,000 OFW in Japan alone.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002096

That came from the Philippine horse racing industry.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002097

So, we are mandated to provide government revenue every year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002098

At the average, for the last five years, we are providing 700 million to 800 million per year to the government.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002099

The budget that is being given to us by the government is only one-fifth of the total revenue that we are giving.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002100

If they give us 200 million, we are returning 800 million to the government.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002101

So,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002102

we are mandated to supervise the horse racing, at the same time, the breeding industry in the Philippines.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002103

Horse racing in the Philippines started 159 years ago.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002104

So, we are ahead of some other nations in Asia and worldwide.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002105

This is the only industry or sports industry that is accepted by more than 140 countries worldwide.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002106

So,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002107

as we observed in the last five years when we traveled to other conferences in the Asian Racing Federation,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002108

International Federation of Horse Racing Authority, and APAR,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002109

we found out that horse racing is really the only sport or one of the very few sports in the Philippines that can be converted to a sports tourism industry.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002110

So, all sectors,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002111

you know,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002112

IPO observed,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002113

from the King of Saudi Arabia to the different royalties in Europe, are all into horse racing.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002114

So, we are left behind, Mr. Chair, for so many years.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002115

Napabayaan po ito ng mga nakalang administrasyon at hindi nakita yung potential nito.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002116

To give you an example,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002117

right now,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002118

Japan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002119

in terms of peso sales per year,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002120

is selling 1.3 trillion pesos per year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002121

1.3 trillion pesos per year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002122

While Korea, right now, is selling 700 billion pesos per year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002123

So, we are of the same number in terms of horses as of Korea.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002124

If they are selling 700 billion pesos a year,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002125

and we are just targeting 10 billion so far,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002126

napakalayo po ng depensya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002127

May I intercut you there, Mr. Chairman?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002128

Could it be the reason why mahina po ang sales natin?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002129

Kasi yung mga off-track betting stations natin ay hindi masyadong kagandahan ng lugar.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002130

Unlike in Japan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002131

I've been there to Japan, talagang malalaking building po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002132

Tama po kayo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002133

Exactly. Air-conditioned.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002134

Ganon din po sa Korea.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002135

Sa atin po dito, yung OTV.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002136

Diyan sa isang karinderiya.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002137

Tama po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002138

Na napaka-init.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002139

Manunod ang TV.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002140

Ganito kalaki lang po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002141

Tama.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002142

Kailangan po mag-television.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002143

Teleskopyo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002144

Para mapanood mo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002145

Tama po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002146

Pagkatapos pagbayaran, nakasimangot pa yung kahera pag nanalo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002147

May tao po ako dati.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002148

Yun ang trabaho.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002149

Nagkakarera tuwing hapon.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002150

Nagrereklamo dahil napakahaba pa ng pila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002151

Doon po, systematic.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002152

Pag saksak mo ng card, pag nanalo, bayad sa iyo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002153

Dito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002154

So I think there's a big difference.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002155

Kaya gusto mo mangarera,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002156

ay ang karinderiya, ang sinaserve lang po, beer.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002157

Eh hindi ko, paano kung hindi umiinom ng beer?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002158

Tama po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002159

Tapos minsan, meron pa ho dyan sa may Quezon City.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002160

Yung sahig ng karinderiya, lupa.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002161

Dahil pag binaha, pagkuhan, maputik.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002162

Tama po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002163

Tama po, Mr. Chair.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002164

I think we have to ikang up naman, upgrade po,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002165

yung mga, paglalagyan natin ang mga off-track betting stations po natin,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002166

yung mga OTDS, Mr. Chairman.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002167

Mr. Chair, tama po lahat ng observation n'yo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002168

Nakataon lang po na ang Philippine Racing Commission

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002169

is not a,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002170

our duty to approve the OTB application

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002171

and the regulations of OTB operations.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002172

It is being, actually, handled by GOV.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002173

GOV, Games and Amusement Board.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002174

Pero for the last five years po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002175

nagpupumilit po kami na itaas ang antas ng OTB.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002176

Nakita po namin yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002177

At ngayon po, unti-unti po nagkakaroon ng improvement.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002178

Meron po kami mga OTB ngayon na umabot ng 100 square meter

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002179

that can accommodate at least 60 to 80 people.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002180

And they are actually equipped with a big TV like what we have today.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002181

And air-conditioned and properly supervised.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002182

Kami na po yung nakikialam ngayon.

Last week po, may nadaanan pa nga ako dito sa Maynila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002184

Parang sari-sari store lang.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002185

Nanonood.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002186

Iipon yung mga tao dun sa, nanonood sila sa labas nung tindahan po eh.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002187

Tapos, kaya po, nagkakaproblema tayo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002188

And is it true?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002189

Hanggang ngayon, marami pa rin po yung mga ika nga illegal na mga nag-ooperate pa ng illegal OTB.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002190

Meron mga runner, yung mga bookies kung tawagin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002191

Mukhang kinakain po yata yung sales ng mga bookies sa...

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002192

sales po ng mga OTBs natin,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002193

Mr. Chairman?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002193-split-2

Tama po, Mr.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002194

Tama po, Mr. Chair. Actually, last year,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002195

we have 5.7 billion sales

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002196

last year. This year, we will be having

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002197

6.8 billion sales this year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002198

Ang OTB po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002199

actually, katulad na sinabi ko

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002200

kanina, pinamahalaan po ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002201

GameCenter News Board, more

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002202

GAV. Sa dami po ng trabaho ng GAV

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002203

ngayon, more than 80 na yung NSA

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002204

na hawak nila, hinihingi na nga namin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002205

po yung OTB operations. Sabi ko,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002206

bigay na sa amin para makasikaso namin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002207

At nakikita namin, yung kailangan

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002208

ng industriya, i-upgrade po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002209

What will it take para ibigay na lang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002210

sa inyo dahil yan naman po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002211

yung mga OTBs niyan, under po sa

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002212

Racing Commission, karera po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002213

ng kabayo, di ba?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002214

Hindi naman po boxing yan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002215

Kaya I'm wondering,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002216

bakit po napunta sa kanila yan?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002217

Dapat po dito po sa Phil Racom

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002218

yan, yung karera po, di ba?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002219

Tama po. Pero yan po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002220

pinakailangan ng dating administration.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002221

Kaya nga, what will it take para

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002222

makuha ho ninyo?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002223

The approval of the lawmakers.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002224

Approval of the lawmakers.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002225

Is there a bill pending before

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002226

this, the Senate or

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002227

Congress to request

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002228

a transfer of the operations

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002229

of out-track betting stations?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002230

Kasi kung maganda po ang ating mga

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002231

OTBs yung pwesto, mas marami

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002232

pong mananaya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002233

Kung sino po, executive,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002234

racing aficionado ako,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002235

pupunta ba ako niya sa carinderia,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002236

mga katabi ko, mga tricycle driver,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002237

mga karpintero, ako naka-barong

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002238

o naka-amerikana,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002239

wala pong magandang kustahan,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002240

tayaan, hindi ka magtatambay doon.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002241

So ang gagawin mo, kukuha ka na lang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002242

ng mga bookies.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002243

Doon ka na lang sa bookies.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002244

Tumaya, imbis na income ng gobyerno,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002245

napunta sa bookies.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002246

Tama po. Actually, presently po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002247

mayroong House Bill sa Congress,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002248

9386, creating

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002249

a Philippine Racing Commission

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002250

and a proposal

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002251

na gawing Philippine Racing Corporation.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002252

So pa nangyari po yun,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002253

mapupunta rin po sa amin yung OTB.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002254

Tama po kayo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002255

sasabi nyo na sa Japan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002256

building po ang OTB, hindi po sa carinderia,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002257

building po, at nakakarpeted.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002258

At meron po sila mga automated machines

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002259

na pwede ka tumaya, makubra mo kagad.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002260

Well, aircon, may mga receptionist,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002261

talagang pan-tourist.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002262

Ito nga, ito po ang

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002263

nag-iisang sports, if I may say,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002264

na pwede natin gawing

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002265

sports tourism industry.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002266

Nadarating ang time, parang F1 na ito ng Singapore.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002267

Nadayo rin tayo para

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002268

maulad ng karera.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002269

For the last 3 years po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002270

nagsara po yung Macau

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002271

at yung Singapore, dahil

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002272

yung gobyerno nila, kailangan na nila

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002273

yung lupa para sa karirahan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002274

Malakas po ang karera nila, kaya nang nagsara sila,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002275

wala silang lupa. So,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002276

kinumberte nila sa bahay, kinumberte sa hospital.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002277

Tapos isa pa, Mr. Chairman,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002278

napakalayo ng karirahan natin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002279

Nasa Batangas yung isa,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002280

yung isa nasa Cavite. Sino

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002281

namang tagpulano ang pupunta roon?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002282

Ordinary yung

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002283

vetor na wala naman sa sasakyan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002284

Magkocommute siya, papunta sa Cavite.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002285

Pupunta sa Batangas para

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002286

manood siya live.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002287

Dati po, medyo marami po tayong mga

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002288

manunood dahil nandyan

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002289

lang po sa Santa Ana.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002290

Isa nandun po sa San Lazaro.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002291

Ngayon, doon na sa Cavite,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002292

sasakay ka ng bus.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002293

Yung isa doon sa Batangas,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002294

yung mga may-ari na lang ng kabayo ang manunood.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002295

Kaya po, tinitingnan ko nga sa TV,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002296

parang kukunti na lang.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002297

Big time na lang po pupunta roon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002298

Actually, pag may mga steak race,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002299

maabot pa naman ng 5,000 to 10,000 na nanonood.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002300

Ngayon, pag regularize, tama po kayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002301

Kukunti pa nanonood.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002302

Nakataon po yung mga nakarang may-ari

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002303

nung karirahan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002304

Inisip nila yung realty na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002305

pagkakakitaan. Actually, kasi yung lupa,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002306

tumataas ang value sa Manila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002307

Naibibenta nila ng billion

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002308

yung kanilang property.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002309

At tatayo sila sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002310

Batangas. Kaya naman po sa Batangas

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002311

ginagawa yung karira. Unang-una po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002312

yung climate conducive sa mga kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002313

Kailangan po ng kabayo na at least

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002314

28 degrees centigrade para

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002315

maganda po yung kanilang kalusugan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002316

Yung pinakahuli pong sinara

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002317

na karirahan sa Carmona-Cavite,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002318

ang balita po namin,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002319

nabenta ng 7 billion sa Ayala

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002320

ng mga reyno.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002321

So, yun po yung dahilan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002322

Financial economic reason po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002323

Anyway, tama po yung observation nyo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002324

Dapat po siguro mag-improve talaga

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002325

yung OTB operation.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002326

Kung maaari po mailipat sa amin sa lalang madaling panahon,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002327

yung gab na lang po, kung pwede,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002328

iwan na lang namin sa gab yung

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002329

police matters. Hindi po kami

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002330

tumatanggap ng confidential pan. Sila may

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002331

confidential pan na natin ang gab. Sa kanila

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002332

na lang po yung police matters.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002333

Yung paghuli sa mga bukis,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002334

iwan na lang po namin sa gab yun.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002335

Kung nakain po ng bukis,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002336

ang sales share ng

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002337

mga OTBs, they're cutting up.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002338

Kasi nga po, imbes na

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002339

tumaya po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002340

pupunta doon sa isang karinderiya,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002341

isang sari-sari store,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002342

isang bukis na lang. Pupunta pa sa bahay mo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002343

opisina mo, tayaan mo ako ng ganito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002344

Yung bukis, may dividend daso pa na

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002345

libre. Dito, ito, ito, ito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002346

Tapos pabalik. O sige, sir, nanalo ka.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002347

O sir, natalo ka. Taya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002348

Sa next na, sa race 8 na po tayo.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002349

Ganito.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002350

Saka may porsyente po yung bukis eh.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002351

Pag tumaya ka po ng isang libo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002352

1,100 lang pwede mo itaya.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002353

Ganun po yun eh. Sige po, go ahead. Continue with your

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002354

presentation, sir. I'm sorry for cutting you in.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002355

Kagaya na sinabi namin,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002356

kami po yung member ng Asian Racing Federation

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002357

na meron 28

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002358

prestigious countries all over the world.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002359

Member din po kami ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002360

IPA, na meron 60

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002361

countries na talaga

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002362

ng mataas na quality ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002363

horse racing.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002364

Three years ago, nag-member po kami ng IPAR.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002365

Ito po yung International Forum for the

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002366

After Case of Horse Racing.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002367

So, pagkatapos po ng pagtagbo ng kabayo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002368

karir nila, binibigyan po namin sila ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002369

panibagong buhay.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002370

Hindi po namin pinakakatay. Bawal po magpakatay

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002371

ng kabayo sa amin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002372

Kaya sa mga kabayo na disgrasya,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002373

di ba ginagawang tapa?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002374

May kilala po ko,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002375

kumakain po ng kabayong tapa.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002376

Hindi po namin tinotolerate

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002377

yung pagtatapa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002378

ng kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002379

Ang minumungkain namin sa mga horse

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002380

owners, pag namatay yung kabayo, ay ipalibing

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002381

yung kabayo. Marami namang kasumusunod.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002382

Meron po ako nung may mga,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002383

nagdala pa nga po minsan dito

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002384

ng tapang kabayo eh.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002385

O daba po ng baka,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002386

o yung pala,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002387

kalabaw.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002388

Ano pala, kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002389

Hanapin ko nga ako yung nagdala nun dito.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002390

Anyway, meron din po kami

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002391

ng campaign na, Mr. Chair,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002392

para sa Responsible Gaming Campaign.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002393

Ang unang-una, bawal tumaya

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002394

ang mga bata sa ating mga

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002395

OTB or actual

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002396

na karera.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002397

Yun po ang problema, Sir.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002398

Yung sinasabi ko, yung mga bookies.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002399

Kahit mga bata, binatilyo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002400

tataya po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002401

Karamihan sa kanila, mga llamado

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002402

para madoble. Hindi naman dodoble ang pera

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002403

pero sigurado. Tataya po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002404

ng mga ikang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002405

porcas, trifecta.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002406

Yun ang tinatayaan nila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002407

O dobol

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002408

sa llamado. Nananalo naman

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002409

kasi mas malaki ang chances mo rather

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002410

than sa dihado. Di po ba?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002411

Kaya yun po siguro bantayan natin.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002412

Paano natin

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002413

makawasan na yung mga makabataan,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002414

sa off track,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002415

bawal. Dahil hanapan ng ID.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002416

Pero sa mga bookies,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002417

tanggap po ng tanggap ang bookies. Minsan nga po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002418

yung mga tatay pa po naguutos

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002419

sa mga anak nila, punta mo si

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002420

Cardo doon sa kapitbahay,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002421

magtaya ka doon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002422

Mr. Chair, meron po akong proposal

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002423

para sa mga bookies. Kung mamarapatin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002424

niya po, baka po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002425

pwedeng i-coordinate natin po sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002426

DILG.

Minsan po, yung mga kagawad natin

Senator Erwin Tulfo

para maiwasan

yung mga minor at government

po yun, di ba, from participating

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002453

or exposed to horse

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

racing gambling. Actually, meron po kaming

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002455

CCTV sa lahat ng karirahan

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002456

at karamihan po sa OTB, meron na rin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002457

CCTV. At so far, wala

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002458

naman pa kami nahuhuli na government

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002459

official na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002460

nagkakarera sa ngayon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002461

So, yun po, yung

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002462

suggestion ko po sana,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002463

kung mapapakiusap po natin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002464

yung DILG na tumulong sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002465

GAB para sa police power

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002466

ng illegal

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002467

betting sa karera. Yun po yung solution dun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002468

Nakita na po namin. Kaya lang, wala po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002469

kami ang police power sa Philippine Racing Commission.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002470

Regulation lang po kami ng karera.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002471

So, sa GAB siguro.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002472

Iwan na po sa GAB yung gano'ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002473

trabaho po. Completely. Pag nalangin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002474

sa amin yung OTB para mapaganda namin yung OTB,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002475

yun po yung recommendation

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002476

namin. Anyway,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002477

as I mentioned,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002478

from 2020

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002479

up to 2025,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002480

we have continuous increase in sales.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002481

Nung pandemic po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002482

nahinto

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002483

ang karera ng 6 months, pero nakapag-revenue

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002484

pa rin kami ng 344 million sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002485

gobyerno. So, up to

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002486

2025, nag-increase po kami

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002487

every year ang aming contribution.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002488

Last year, 837 million

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002489

ang aming contribution.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002490

This year, papalok

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002491

po kami ng 950 to 1 billion

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002492

this year with a very limited budget

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002493

of 199 million.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002494

So,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002495

as I mentioned,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002496

yung House Bill 9386

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002497

baka po pwede niyong silipin na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002498

Mr. Chair at makasakaling

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002499

supportahan natin para mapalagoy

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002500

yung karera. Napakalaki na po nung

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002501

difference between sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002502

Asian horses, horses sa

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002503

Pilipinas. Kung mapaparis tayo

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002504

kahit kalahati lang ng Korea sa ngayon,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002505

pero walang kabahay natin eh. Three times a week

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002506

lang nga karera nila eh. Pero nagbibenta

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002507

silang 700 billion pesos. Kahit

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002508

300 billion lang mabenta natin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002509

So, meron tayo mga 25 to 30

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002510

billion na may bibigay sa gobyerno.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002511

Kaya po yan kasi, mapapansin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002512

niyo po, sa Asia,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002513

sa Pilipinas po ang pinakamaraming

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002514

casino. 75

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002515

kasino rito. Ang Korea

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002516

32 lang kasino ng Korea

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002517

pero bibenta silang. So baka andito na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002518

yung mga magbebet eh. Andito na sa Pilipinas eh.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002519

It's a matter of

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002520

adjusting some taxes

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002521

for the winner.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002522

Tataya na yung mga tao. Andito na po yung mga

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002523

beto sa Pilipinas mismo. So

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002524

kung ma-adjust yung nirequest namin na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002525

ibaba yung tax ng 5%, then

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002526

tataya na lahat yan. At mamamatay

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002527

po yung bukis pag binaba natin yung tax.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002528

Yun po yung logic doon

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002529

kaya nirequest namin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002530

Anyway,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002531

sa financial performance po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002532

last year 93% na namin

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002533

budget utilization. Dahil yung pong

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002534

7% ay binayad namin o the

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002535

first week of January. Dahil yung

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002536

na-trapos po yung karera ng December 31,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002537

hindi na po namin magbibigay. So binigay

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002538

namin ang first or second week of January.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002539

This year, fortunately, we have

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002540

65% of the

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002541

budget utilization.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002542

And lastly,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002543

Mr. Chair, with your permission,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002544

the 202 million allocated

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002545

by BBM for next year

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002546

in the Pilipinas Commission,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002547

we feel that

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002548

it is not enough for us to

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002549

provide the government of 1.2

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002550

billion for next year. That's

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002551

our target. 1.2 billion

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002552

contribution to the government. So

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002553

humingi lang po kami ng 37

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002554

million na increase

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002555

sa binigay po ng BBM this year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002556

Yun po yung kasama po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002557

doon sa operational expenses namin,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002558

62% po ng aming

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002559

budget, total budget,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002560

napupunta po yan sa incentives

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002561

sa mga winning horses.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002562

Pag sinabing pong incentives yan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002563

nakikinabang po ang horse owners,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002564

jockey, trainers, crew,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002565

exercise riders, lahat po yan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002566

So, for 237 million na budget na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002567

hingin namin kasamang additional,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002568

Mr. Chair,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002569

we are committed

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002570

to give 1.2 billion

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002571

for the government

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002572

by year end of next year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002573

So, 1.2 billion

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002574

against 300,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002575

that is times four.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002580

So, that's your

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002581

wish list, sir.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002582

Baka pwede po nyo kami tulungan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002583

Alright, we'll work on that.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002584

Are you done with your presentation?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002585

Yes, sir.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002586

I have a couple of questions for you.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002587

Una po,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002588

have you already addressed ito pong

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002589

tinatawag na mga

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002590

mananaya po mga karirista?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002591

Pag natalo, sasabihin,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002592

dinaya, nag-usap yung dalawang

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002593

jockey, si jockey

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002594

horse number 1 at horse number 2,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002595

liyamadong liyamado si horse number 1,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002596

natalo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002597

banderang kapos,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002598

may mga salitang ganon,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002599

e banderista talaga yung kabayo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002600

biglang,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002601

biglang kinakapos, hindi yung magiging

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002602

sa finish line, natatalo po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002603

Minsan talagang yung payout,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002604

sobra-sobra, 9999,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002605

ibig sabihin parang 1,000 mahigit

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002606

sa bawat piso.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002607

So, na-address po ba ninyo ito?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002608

O kayo ba ito?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002609

O sa GAB ba ito? Kaninong trabaho?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002610

Actually, sa amin po yan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002611

actually, every Monday po, ang karera po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002612

kasi natin, Merkules, Bernays,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002613

Sabado, Linggo. Every Monday po,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002614

meron kami tinatawag na

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002615

Race Review Committee, the whole day po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002616

Lahat ng nakaraang apat na araw na karera,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002617

nire-review po yan ng committee of

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002618

8 people. So, ando po

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002619

yung mga commissioners, ando po yung mga FID

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002620

personnel namin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002621

Lahat po nang hindi tinawagan

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002622

ng steward, kasi may mga steward po ang bawat club eh,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002623

sa bawat karera sila tumatawag

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002624

para suspindihan. Mga hindi nila tinawag

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002625

o malintawag nila,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002626

nire-review namin yan, nagmamotopropyo kami

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002627

para imbestigahan yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002628

So, para, for the last

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002629

5 years,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002630

nakapag-ban na po kami ng hinete,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002631

nakapag-ban na po kami ng trainers,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002632

nakapag-ban na po kami ng handicapper, at marami na po kami

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002633

na suspindi.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002634

1 year, 6 months, so lahat po ng

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002635

violations, may corresponding suspension.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002636

Ito ba ang dahilan kung bakit

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002637

marami tayong mga

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002638

jockeys na nasa abroad na

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002639

sumasakay sa Hong Kong, sumasakay po

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002640

sa Japan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002641

O sa Saudi, dahil suspendido sila dito sa atin?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002642

Or mas malaki ang bayad sa kanila ang riding fee? Magkano na po nga po ang riding fee natin dito?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002643

Nung nagsimula kami magmamuno ng komisyon, wala pong binibigay ang Philippine Racing Commission sa mga inete.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002644

Nagde-depende sila sa mga owner ng kabayo para bigyan sila ng riding fee.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002645

Ngayon po, actually ngayon, presently, nagbibigay kami ng 800 per ride.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002646

Win or lose?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002647

Win or lose.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002648

Ngayon,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002649

Nakaka-apat siya na ride, so 800 times 4.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002650

Apo, ngayon, pagka-stake race po yan, pag 1 million ng premio, 1,000 per riding fee nila. Win or lose?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002651

Meron po kami 15 million race, presidential gold cup, in the name of our president, 15,000 per ride doon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002652

At win or lose din po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002653

Ngayon, with our trust to digitalize our operation,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002654

we ask all the jockeys to have their own,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002655

ATM.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002656

pagkating po ng Friday, nandun po sila sa ATM, kumukubra po sila doon before lunch.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002657

So, the average income of the top 10 jockey today is,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002658

yung 1 to 3 po, ma-average po sila 300 to 350,000 per month.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002659

Yung nandun po sa 7, 8, 9, 10, 150 to 200,000 per month.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002660

So, I think nabibigyan po namin sila ng,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002661

gusto namin po humigis sa inyo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002662

ng audience, Mr. Kirno,

pagka after this, after this ano, after this.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002664

Yung pagiging jockey po, I mean, it's a, ika nga, lucrative,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002665

dahil mataas po yung 300,000, di ba?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002666

Hindi po sila nakatapos ng pag-aaral,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002667

nakapag-train lang sila dahil sa Philippine Racing Commission Academy,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002668

at ngayon po ay nabibigyan sila ng ganyang.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002669

Pero meron naman po yata, ika nga, weight and height standard po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002670

Meron po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002671

Hindi naman po pwedeng maging jockey na, kasi taas ko 5'11,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002672

kailangan mo siguro eh, 5'4 yata pinakamatangkad mo dyan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002673

5'2, 5'3, 5'4, tapos po yung weight kinakailangan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002674

pag mag-uumpisa kang hinete, 52 kilos pababa.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002675

Ah, okay.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002676

So, naintindihan po namin yung kanilang pinagdadaanan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002677

dahil ang kabayo po, 450 kilos to 500 kilos ang kabayo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002678

at kung 52 kilos na sila, sila yung rume-renda rin sa kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002679

Hawak-hawak nila yung renda na nagkakontrol sa bibig ng kabayo

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002680

para patakbo yung kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002681

Tumatakbo ng 70 kilometers per hour sa open air.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002682

Mahirap po yun, mahirap.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002683

Mahirap po yun, nakatapak lang sila sa bakal na maliit.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002684

So, yun po yun, pero nabibiyayaan naman sila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002685

Yung mga nag-upload po ng mga hinete.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002686

Sa mga pag nag-na-disgrasya po, nahulog, nagkasakit, nabalian,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002687

who pays for the hospitalization?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002688

Meron po kaming insurance, no? Insurance.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002689

At the same time, may incentive po ang Jockeys Associations of the Philippines.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002690

Through the prices given, the share of prices given by Philippine Racing Commission,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002691

nakaka-accumulate siya ng mga 12 to 14 million per year na kita nila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002692

Kung di sila gumustuhan ng dalawang taon, meron siya mga 25 to 28 million.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002693

Ito po, kunwari na nahulog itong Jockeys, sino pong magsushoulder na yun?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002694

Yung may-ari ng kabayo na sinasakyan niyo or Philracom ipapa-hospital po siya?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002695

Yung pong insurance, meron ko agad 300,000 to 350,000 sa insurance.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002696

Tapos yung pong sinasabi kong budget na nakukuha nila,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002697

doon po rin sila kumukuha ng additional na budget para dyan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002698

Tapos yung mga may-ari po ng kabayo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002699

mga may-ayaman naman na may-ari, karamihan eh.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002700

So nagbibigay din po sila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002701

Have you already addressed, sir, yung doubts ng mga bettors na may game-fixing po?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002702

How do you address that? Aside from mag-iimbestiga kayo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002703

because uso-uso ito, about 10, 15 years ago,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002704

somebody taught me how to bet dito po sa horse racing,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002705

mga kasamahan ko dati sa media.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002706

Alam na alam niya ko eh, ito, denia ito, ito, nag-usap itong dalawang jockey na ito,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002707

kaya ganito, na paano ito?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002708

I mean, nabawasan na ba yan?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002709

Malaki na po ang kabukusan, comparado sa mga naka-down generation.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002710

Dahil nga sa pagigipit ng Philippine Racing Commission,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002711

pagbibigay ng suspension doon sa mga hinete,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002712

na medyo naliligaw ng landas,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002713

at nangihinayin mo po yung mga hinete na mawalan sila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002714

Kasi pag nasuspindi sila ng 6 months,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002715

alam mo, 6 months, they're averaging 100,000 a month.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002716

So, definitely, 600,000 for 6 months is a big loss to them and to their family.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002717

Kasi meron na po tayong, actually, yung law para sa illegal, ano, illegal, no?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002718

Game-fixing.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002719

Game-fixing po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002720

Yun po yung pinaliliwag namin sa mga hinete,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002721

mga trainers,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002722

na pagka nahulihan sila talaga at nakaroon ng valid reason,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002723

we are not just suspending them.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002724

We are willing to elevate the case to the proper authority, the NBI,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002725

for them to be filed a civil case to them.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002726

Kaya doon po sila natatakot.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002727

Naproba na po ng Senado yung game-fixing law, I think, 2 years ago.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002728

So, yun po yung pinanalaban namin sa kanila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002729

Aba kayo magluloko, dahil ito po i-apply namin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002730

Hindi lang namin kayo sususpindi ng 1 year,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002731

but i-elevate namin yung kaso,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002732

doon sa proper government authority.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002733

Nakikita niyo ba kung pinipigilan nung Jackie yung kanyang kabayo?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002734

I mean, instead of largahan niya, pipigilan niya kasi usong-uso dati ang gano'n.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002735

Sasabihin ng mga manunood, pinipigilan o pinipigilan nung Jackie yung kabayo?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002736

Ngayon po, meron na po tayong introduced 3 years ago,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002737

a drone shot, nasa taas po yung camera,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002738

makikita po yung galaw ng siko, nung kabayo, nung hinete.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002739

So, makikita. Kitang-kita po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002740

Nagka-close up po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002741

So, yun po yung implement na isa sa mga ginawa namin, yung drone shot.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002742

So, nahihira pa rin silang pumigit o magpasara o magpaliko na alanganin.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002743

Magnakitaan po yun, pinapatawag sila, motoprope po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002744

Yung mga nasa media po, sad to say,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002745

nag-meeting kami ng mga ibang organizations, ng mga betors,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002746

ang sabi nila sa amin,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002747

Chairman, karamihan dyan, natatalo na ng 20 pesos,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002748

mas maingay pa sa amin na tumataya kami ng 1,000.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002749

E, hindi po natin maiwasan kasi,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002750

nasa democratic country po tayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002751

So, pinapaliwanag nalang namin sa kanila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002752

So, nagiging transparent kami sa kanila.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002753

Yung state world report, pinapost namin sa aming social media.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002754

At yung aming motoprope decision, binibigay din po namin sa kanila.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002755

Sir, may we know the actions taken by Phil Racom on COA's findings,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002756

particularly your underutilization po ng breakage fund.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002757

Nagagamit po ba talaga ito ng Phil Racom?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002758

Ano po itong breakage fund?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002759

Yung breakage fund po, actually,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002760

nama po yung tanong ninyo, napakaganda po yung tanong ninyo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002761

Yung breakage fund po, dapat po yan sa STAD farm eh.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002762

Sa STAD farm allocation.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002763

Ngayon, ah, yung dati po ang Philippine Racing Club doon po sa Santa Ana,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002764

na nalipat po sa NAE,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002765

ah, may utang pa po sa gobyerno yun, ha?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002766

Dapat yun. Hindi naman nila bibigyan sa Philippine Racing Commission po yun eh.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002767

Bibigyan nila kung sino yung may hawak ng STAD farm.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002768

So, yun po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002769

Nasa, pwede lang po yung STAD book, yung STAD farm nasa bayi po ngayon,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002770

sa Department of Agriculture.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002771

Kung kukuha po ng gobyerno yan, malaking bagay po yan,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002772

at may bibigyan doon sa, sa bayi,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002773

or sa sino man namin may hawak ng STAD farm ngayon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002774

Offensive Funding.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002775

Pero yan, dyan sa may UP bandadi po ba?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002776

Opo, nalipat po sa, nalipat po sa LIPA.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002777

Hawak po ngayon ng, ano yan, ng, ah, bayi.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002778

Kaya lang nung nakaraang meeting, ah, the other day po, ando po ko sa Congress,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002779

hinihiling din po namin, kasama doon sa, sa aming, ah, hiling na ilipat sa Philippine Racing Commission,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002780

yung, ah, STAD farm operation.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002781

Dahil meron po tayong binili na kabayo, dalawa pong important na kabayo,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002782

nagkakaralaga po yan ng, ah, 8 million.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002783

I think that was 2015 o 16, ah, nung si Sen. Villar po, Sen. Villar po ay nag-initiate yan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002784

Ah, sad to say po, ah, nung binisita namin doon sa STAD farm,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002785

na pa, na pangasiwa nung, ah, bayi, ay, ah, mukhang napabayaan po yung kabayo, eh.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002786

Hindi po nakakapag-produce ng maximum.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002787

Earnings para sa gobyerno.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002788

Ah, another question po, ah, yung prices po, who determines na ito, is it mat, mathematics?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002789

Is it computed by a machine?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002790

Computed by the people?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002791

Kung magkano yung betors, magkano po yung mananalo?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002792

Ah, for example, sa, ah, ah, double-double, or sa ikang trifecta, pentafecta, ah,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002793

winner-take-all, who determines that, na ito yung premyo?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002794

Magamit po tayo ng, ano, magamit po tayo ng, ah, international totalisator, no?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002795

International totalisator po, ginagamit ng Amerika, ginagamit ng Europe, at lahat ng, ah, bansa sa buong mundo, no?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002796

Ah, United Tote po ang pangalan, United Tote. So, yan po ay, ah, ah, hindi po pwedeng dayain.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002797

So, bawat taya, bawat taya ng mananaya, ay, ah, makikita automatic, ah, competition,

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002798

kung magkano yung ibibigay sa double, sa porca, sa winner-take-all, dun po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002799

Naka, ano po yan, nakaprogram po yan. So, wala po makikita dyan, kahit sinkundaya po, wala po makikita dyan.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002800

Ah, internationally acceptable. Ah, ah, United Tote po, pwede nyo pong i-research, ah, United Tote, ah, totalisator, yun po yung taga-handler niyan.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002801

Bakit po may mga games, minsan may, may race, kunwari race 3, parang tatlong kabayo, apat na kabayo, anong, kung ano doon?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002802

At meron namang karera na, siyempre.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002803

Ano naman tatakbo? O walo? Pero meron ba, apat lang ang tatakbo?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002804

Ah, sa 2-year-old na kabayo po, in the 2-year-old, kasi kukunti lang ang population yan, ah, pinapayagan po namin yung apat na kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002805

Pero yung 4-year-old and above, o 3-year-old and above, maximum, minimum po is 6, 6, yun po yun.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002806

Kasi sa pagkalimbawa, ah, this season of September, lumalabas na yung mga 2-year-old this year.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002807

So, September to December, tumatakba yung mga 2-year-old. Pinapayagan po namin tumakba yung apat na kabayo.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002808

So, pag na-scout yung isa, nagiging tatlo, pero tolerable naman po yun. Base po doon sa aming mandato. Base po doon.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002809

Yung ating mga magagaling na jockeys, how true na napapirate po sa Saudi, ng mga hari, ng mga prinsipe?

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002810

Yung mga magagaling natin, Ray, ang naiiwan, hindi na masyado kagalingan, or mga bagong pasok, mga rookie, pero yung mga magagaling, dahil napakalaki ng sweldo,

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002811

napakalaki.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002812

Ano nga, OFW po sila, may mga bakasyon. Anong ginagawa ng Philracom para, I mean, yung mga magagaling, sasakay pa rin naman dito at hindi na pupupunta sa abroad?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002813

Actually, yung mga hinete na Pilipino ngayon na nag-aabroad, hindi po sila hinete doon. Exercise rider lang po sila doon. Hindi po sila jockey.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002814

Meron po yung jockey siguro mga in the last 5 or 10 years, siguro tatlo lang yung naging hinete doon.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002815

Jockey Bakaykay, jockey Zarate, jockey Abobo, no? Kunti lang po. Pero karamihan po sa kanila, exercise rider.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002816

Pero yun po, since for the last 5 years, tumaas ng tumaas ang, ang ano, ang premium rito because sa power assistance, no?

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002817

Napagbigitan bumalik dito yung mga dating hinete yung naging exercise rider doon, dahil nakita nila, mas malaki pa yung kikitain nila dito compared sa abroad.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002818

Napakalaki ng tax doon sa abroad.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002819

Compared dito. So, bumabalik po. Marami na po bumabalik dito ng mga magaling hinete po.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002820

Saan? Siyempre, iba rin po yung kasama nila, yung pamilya nila dito.

Source

PHILRACOM Chairman Aurelio P. de Leon

asr-002821

Definitely po.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo

asr-002822

Alright. Well, sir, there being, I have no more other questions.

Source

Senator Erwin Tulfo
