Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000001Meron din pong mga public markets na nalalagay sa panganib na tuluyang magsara
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000002dahil sa mga hindi nagtagumpay ng mga privatization o joint venture agreements.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000003May mga panahon din po na kinakain ng mga malalaking retailers
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000004ang negosyo ng mga maliliit na mga vendors sa ating mga pampublikong palengke.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000005May panahon din po na lagi pong nalalagay sa question
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000006ang security of tenure ng mga market vendors,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000007yung participation mismo nila sa policy sa loob ng mga palengke.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000008Dahil po sa maraming concerns na yan,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000009hindi po ba panahon na para magkaroon halimbawa ng regional consultation
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000010o kung ano man sa tingin ng DILG na mainam po na mekanismo
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000011para marinig yung boses din ng mga market vendors?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000012Actually, Mr. Speaker, there's always a consultation.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000013And just for the information of our good colleague,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000014there was a DILG.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000015It's Joint Memorandum Circular No. 2019-01.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000016It guides local government units, LGUs,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000017in setting just, reasonable, and standardized regulatory fees and service charges.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000018Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Sponsor,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000019at mangingi po tayo ng pinakahuling ulat ng DILG tungkol dito.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000020Nakita rin po kasi natin na sa kapangyarihan ng DILG,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000021pwede naman po siyang mag-initiate ng iba't ibang program.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000022Halimbawa po, di ba, meron po kayong paleng QRPH program
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000023na tumutulong po kayo sa ating mga public markets
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000024na magkaroon ng mas maraming opsyon for cashless payments.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000025Kung nagawa po ito ng DILG na mag-initiate ng ganito mga programa
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000026para tulungan ang ating mga public markets,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000027sana po magkaroon din po tayo ng inisyatiba na nakalapat sa kalagayan ng mga vendors.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000028At sana po kung wala pang konsultasyon,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000029magkaroon na ng national consultation sa mga LGU, sa ating mga public markets
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000030para po madinig din natin yung boses ng mga market vendors
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000031na ngayon po ay naghihingalo na ang kanila mga public markets
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000032at nananawagan po sila na sana may dagdag na suporta ang pambansang pamahalaan
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000033para palakasin ang mga pampublikong merkado sa buong bansa.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000034Totally agree, Madam Speaker.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000035Maraming salamat.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000036Maraming salamat.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000037At bilang panghuli, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000038tungkol po sa BJMP cashless system
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000039na ipatupad sa pangmagitan ng Memorandum Circular No. 110.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000040Narisk ko po ito, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Sponsor,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000041dahil meron po tayong mga ulat,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000042halimbawa na sa ngayon po ba aamiyandahan na po itong cashless system na ito?
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000043Magkakaiba po kasi yung...
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000044mga policies, no, kada institution
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000045na kung paano po natin maipapatupad ng maayos ang cashless system.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000046Natanong ko lang po ito dahil sa Bucor, sa CIW,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000047nagkaroon po ng issue ng nawawalang 6...
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000048nasa 6 million pesos, 5 to 6 million pesos.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000049At dahil po dito, nais po natin sanang bantayan ng Kongreso
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000050na ang mga cashless system na ito,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000051hindi magkakaroon ng issue ng nawawalang pondo,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000052magkakaroon ng issue ng korupsyon,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000053at hindi po magkakaroon ng issue kung saan napapahirapan po
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000054o lalong nahihirapan yung mga PDLs na ma-access,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000055yung mga pondo na nararapat lang po ay magamit nila.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000056Dahil napakababa na nga po ng ating overhead na expense ng cost,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000057kada PDL, at mahirap po kung yung mga pondo na pumapasok,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000058kung sa kanila through the cashless system,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000059ay hindi maayos na ipapatupad at nabibigay sa kanila.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000060Yes, we totally agree with you, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000061Actually, now may TWG na po na ginagawa,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000062Technical Working Group, para maisaayos po ito.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000063At hindi lang po yan, nag-uusap na rin po ang BJMP,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000064even ang Bucor, and even po ang Provincial Jail.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000065Dapat po.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000066Nasa isang umbrella na lang para hindi po iba-iba
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000067yung ating pinapatupad na mga alituntunin para po sa ating jail system.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000068Mr. Speaker, bilang huling katanungan,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000069kailan po matatapos itong pag-amienda,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000070itong proseso po ng pagtawag natin ng Technical Working Group,
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000071ang consultation para po mas mapalakas ang ating safeguards
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000072sa paggamit ng cashless system?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000073Madam Speaker, may consultative meeting pa kasing ginagawa.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000074But as far as I know, we have to create a law regarding this,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000075kung paano mo pag-iisahin.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000076So it's not only we know the problem, we understand it,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000077and we have to do something about it.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000078With the advice also of BGMP, even ng Bucor,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000079and ng ating mga Provincial Jails.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000080Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000081Patuloy nating babantayan ang pagre-repaso ng cashless system na ito
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000082para sa interest ng transparency ng accountability.
Rep. Sarah Jane I. Elago
asr-000083Maraming maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000084Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000085Mr. Speaker, can I ask for a two-minute suspension?
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong
asr-000086Session is suspended.
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong
asr-000091Session is resumed. Majority Leader.
Floor Speaker
asr-000092Mr. Speaker, next to interpellate, I move to recognize Representative Antonio Tinio of ACT Teachers Party-list.
Deputy Speaker Yasser Alonto Balindong
asr-000093Honorable Antonio Tinio is recognized. You may proceed, sir.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000094Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Meron po tayong presentation para mapabilis.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000095Ang unang set of questions natin kaugnay pa rin dito sa Local Government Support Fund.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000096Ang particular na papel ng DILG,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000097DILG dito, essentially, monitoring.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000098Tama po ba? Monitoring and...
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000099Monitoring, evaluation.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000100Monitoring and evaluation of the programs and projects under LGSF.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000101So, hindi kayo yung nag-approve.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000102Hindi DILG yung nag-approve.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000103Hindi po.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000104Hindi.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000105DBM po ang nag-approve. Parang gano'n, ano?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000106As far as I know, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000107Yes. Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000108So...
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000109Especially Falgo.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000110Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000111Special Purpose Fund.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000112Correct?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000113Falgo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000114Sorry?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000115Falgo.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000116Financial assistance to LGUs.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000117Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000118So, ito lang po.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000119So, we have an idea kung paano yung tinakbo ng LGSF over the past decade from 2016.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0001202016, nasa mga 18.4 billion or 19 billion ng level, GAA.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000121So, yung...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000122So, yung blue, NEP, yung orange, GAA.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000123So, we note, particularly in 2026.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000124Kaya naman po na-focus ang attention dito dahil in 2026 ay relatively mababa yung proposal for LGSF
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000125at 16.0.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000126Pero sa GAA, after dumaan sa Kongreso, BICAM, naging 57 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000127No?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000128Bumukol talaga.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000129And you can see that, yung orange na lumaki.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000130Tapos, for 2027, imemaintain yung level na yun.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000131At least in the proposed budget.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000132You can also see, for example, in 2022, malaki yung NEP.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000133Malaki yung NEP proposal, 2022, 51 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000134Pero actual na in-approve ng Kongreso, 17.9 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000135So, it works both ways, no?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000136In the past, malaki yung proposal ng Malacanang, binawasan ng Kongreso.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000137Pero the past, for 2026, maliitang proposal, tin-replay or more, ng Kongreso.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000138Tapos, sa susunod na taon...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000139Ganun, mas malaki na rin naman, no?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000140Slightly higher than the current at 58 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000141Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000142Ngayon,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000143isa sa mga pinakalaking, malaking dinagdagan, yung financial assistance to LGUs.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000144Falgo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000145Diba?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000146So, again, ayun yung data.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000147Let's not...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000148Hindi na masyadong palalaking pa.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000149Original proposal dyan, 5 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000150Naging 37 billion sa GAA for 2026.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000151Tapos, 2027, same level ang proposal, 37.49 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000152Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000153So, malinaw yung pinalobong Local Government Support Fund.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000154And the next...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000155Para lang makita natin yung iba't-ibang components ng Local Government Support Fund,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000156bukod sa Falgo, yun yung pinakamalaki,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000157nandyan din yung Barangay Development Program ng NTFL-CAC.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000158So, it's at 9.7 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000159And then, such things as the Growth Equity Fund and a few others.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000160Pero yun yung po yung mga pinakamalaki.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000161Now,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000162ang naging kontrobersyal po dito sa...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000163ah...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000164particularly financial assistance...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000165to LGUs,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000166yung allocation.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000167So, we have...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000168for...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000169for 2025,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000170ang financial assistance to LGUs
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000171was 5 billion lang.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000172Sorry.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00017318.9 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00017418.9 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000175So, malaki na rin yun.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00017618.9 billion
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000177for 2025.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0001782025.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000179And then, doubled.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000180In 2026, 37 billion.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000181Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000182So, ang question dito,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000183paano yung allocation yan?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000184No?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000185At...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000186ah...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000187lumabas na nga na may mga questions
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000188regarding the allocation.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000189Because,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000190on average,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000191if we will summarize,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000192ay...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000193ah...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000194on average,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000195yung mga projected jobs,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000196dyan,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000197for the most part,

asr-000204merong mga bumubukol
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000205na allocations.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio

asr-000281or hospital equipment.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000282Okay. So,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000283yan yung mga
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000284pinakatampok.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000285Top three single biggest
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000286items sa Falgo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000287Tapos,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000288below that, pag titignan mo yung listahan,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000289there is a
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000290a cliff.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000291No? Biglang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000292tiga, 50 million na lang,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000293tigta 30 million, so on.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000294Mas maliliit na po. For all the other
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000295LGUs. So, kaya nga po yung question,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000296who decides?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000297At sinong nagsasabi
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000298na ang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000299pinagpala
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000300sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000301dinabi namin ng mga LGU
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000302ay ang mga bayang ito.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000303Lahat naman nangangailangan.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000304So, anong basis?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000305Yun po ang tanong.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000306Ano po ang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000307sagot ng DILG
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000308dito?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000309I think it's more appropriate if
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000310DBM answers,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000311Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000312O, sige. Naintindihan natin,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000313pero nilalatag na rin natin
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000314dito. Tila, ang question
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000315talaga, well, bakit
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000316yung iba nakakuha ng ganito kalaki?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000317Sila lang ba
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000318ang may kailangan ng
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000319building
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000320para sa kanilang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000321building?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000322Local university?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000323O kaya para sa kanilang hospital?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000324O yung multi-purpose building
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000325na kalahating bilyong piso?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000326Bakit napunta sa lipa? Sino bang nasa lipa?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000327Hindi ko alam. Okay.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000328Just to be fair, Mr. Speaker, I think we have to be
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000329more detailed rin.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000330Like even Sulu, kung saan
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000331napunta yung 800 million.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000332Because I believe in the
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000333LGSF, it's empowering
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000334the LGUs. I've been a
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000335mayor, Mr. Speaker, talagang maraming
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000336LGUs po na nangangailangan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000337But I truly understand
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000338our colleague, where he's coming from.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000339Kung paano mas maging transparent,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000340paano mas maging equitable.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000341I truly understand that, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000342Well, yes, very detailed po
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000343yung presentation natin. Bin-rake down natin
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000344lahat ng mga proyekto na napunta sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000345Sulu. And they are
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000346essentially road
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000347and multi-purpose building projects.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000348Okay. Now,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000349okay, naintindihan natin
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000350and maybe mas DBM talaga
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000351natin itatanong to.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000352No?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000353Who decides?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000354DBM decides.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000355And yun mismo, question.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000356DBM ba ang tamang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000357autoridad para makapagpa siya
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000358na makakatanggap
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000359ang isang LGU ng 500 million
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000360at hindi yung iba pa?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000361So what gives DBM
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000362that power?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000363Ilerace po natin yung question na yan.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000364And of course,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000365ang concern na ng iba, kung dito
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000366mapapaliwanag, this is patronage.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000367This is presidential pork barrel.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000368Bakit napunta sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000369Maynila? Bakit napunta sa Naga?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000370Bakit napunta sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000371Sulu? Bakit hindi napunta
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000372sa mga distrito ng mga
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000373sa mga LGU, ng mga maraming
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000374mga kasamahan natin dito?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000375So, yun po ang question.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000376Is this not
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000377presidential pork?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000378Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000379can I just reply?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000380For
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000381spirit of fairness, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000382I don't think
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000383na we can just mention it is the
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000384President who decides.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000385Because there is also a portal.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000386May guidelines din po yan
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000387kung paano tayo makakakuha.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000388But if you want to know
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000389further, we can always use
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000390the oversight function of Congress.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000391Ako.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000392Tanungin po natin talaga sa DBM
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000393kung paano
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000394ang pagbigay ng pondo?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000395Kung equitable ba ito?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000396Marami po.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000397Tayong katanungan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000398But in the spirit of fairness,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000399I'm not trying to defend the President.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000400But it is also fair
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000401na wala naman po si President
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000402yung pinipirban siguro po dyan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000403Okay.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000404Hindi nating sa portal.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000405So, let's be fair, Mr. President.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000406Point well taken na may portal.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000407Pero may question din po tayo dyan.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000408Because,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000409well, since the point was made,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000410because in the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000411administrative code,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000412book 5,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000413section 35,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000414regarding lump sum appropriations,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000415malinaw po, lump sum appropriations
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000416and
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000417LGSF is among the lump sum
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000418appropriations. Special budget
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000419for lump sum appropriations.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000420Expenditures from lump sum
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000421appropriations authorized
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000422for any purpose, for any
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000423department, office, or agency
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000424in any annual
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000425general appropriations act.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000426Or other act,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000427and from any fund of the national government,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000428shall be made in accordance
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000429with the special budget
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000430to be approved by the President.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000431So, malinaw po
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000432sa batas, sa ating admin code,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000433which guides
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000434the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000435preparation of the budget.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000436Malinaw po na pag lump sum
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000437FAD at pagre-release ka ron,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000438kailangan may approval ng Presidente
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000439because that is the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000440final,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000441safeguard on
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000442the use of lump sum funds.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000443Katulad nga nito,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000444magbibigay ng 500 million
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000445para sa isang proyekto,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000446kailangan Presidente nakapirma dun.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000447So, yun po ang point.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000448Anyway, we will take this up with
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000449DBM. However,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000450the sponsor, well taken, sabi nga may
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000451portal, DBM to, ano kinalaman
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000452ng Presidente. But the SBDP,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000453Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000454wala pong
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000455kinalaman dun. Walang kinalaman
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000456ng DBM.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000457Wala pong detalye po yun sa SBDP.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000458Walang kinalaman ng Presidente sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000459approval. However,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000460the President himself took it upon himself
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000461to hand over
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000462the sarok
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000463for the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000464500 million Naga project
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000465to the Mayor of Naga.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000466That is well covered.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000467Diba? We are very much thankful
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000468to the President for loving
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000469Naga.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000469-split-2So, in other
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000470words, nasa isip din ito
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000471ng Presidente. At personal
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000472panyang iniabot
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000473ang sarok.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000474And Mr. Speaker, I think that's a good gesture.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000475Kapo nagkalaban sa politika,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000476ang ating Presidente ay tumutulong
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000477lalo na sa improvement
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000478ng Naga.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000479Okay. Now, let me
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000480dahil nga yung approval
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000481DBM to,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000482nasa DILG tayo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000483So, let's talk then about
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000484something within the purview
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000485of the DILG. This is
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000486utilization. Kasi nga monitoring
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000487and evaluation kayo eh.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000488The DILG was
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000489kind enough
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000490to provide us
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000491with information on
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000492utilization. Hiningi natin ito eh.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000493So, ito yung
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000494batay sa sulat
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000495na binigay sa atin,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000496yan po yung mga datos
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000497for the use
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000498of LGSF
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000499broken down into the different
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000500component programs

asr-000501for 2025 and
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005022026.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000503And what?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000504Nagulat tayo. Medyo nagulat tayo
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000505sa datos, no? Because
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000506what we can see is the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000507abysmal
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000508utilization rate.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000509Yun po ang kinagulat natin.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000510Yes. No?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000511For FALGU 2025,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00051211.5
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000513billion,

asr-000514yung allocation dyan,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000515and you have a
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000516disbursement of 811
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000517million. Yes.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000518For a fund,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000519the fund utilization rate of
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005207.05%,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000521Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005227.05%,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000523FALGU, no?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000524For programs like
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000525the Barangay Development
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000526Program, 24.92%,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000527for the other programs dito,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000528yung bottom-up budgeting,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000529zero, zero pa.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005302025 yun, eh.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005312025. Now, for
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0005322026,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000533eh, lalong mabaga, lalong
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000534zero pa. Diba?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000535FALGU,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00053633 billion ang binadjet.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00053733.4 billion. Nilakihan nga
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000538for this year. And you have
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000539a disbursement
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000540of 221 million
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000541or 0.66%
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000542and so on.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000543Ayan po, Mr.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000544Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000545ginaong sponsor.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000546Ay, pambihira naman po.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000547Alam nyo, galing lang tayo
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000548sa pre-plan ng mga SUCs
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000549tsaka DepEd.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000550Ang DBM, napakahigpit
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000551maningil, no? Bibigyan sila
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000552yung MOE nila, babawasan pa.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000553Sasabihin, eh yung utilization nyo, eh.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000554Hindi nyo mang ginagamit.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000555Yet here we have
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000556a lump sum fund
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000557with an abysmal
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000558utilization rate
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000559na sa halip na binawasan,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000560ay tinriple pa.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000561Tinriple pa.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000562How is this justified?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000563Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000564ginaong sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000565Yes, I totally agree, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000566with our colleague.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000567But if I may suggest, lagyan natin
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000568ng column na isa pa,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000569kailan po ba binaba yung
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000570pondo? Kasi minsan po
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000571sa utilization, no, this happens
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000572sa Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000573even like classrooms.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000574Sabihin natin na
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-0005758% lang.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000576Pero narilis pala yung
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000577pondo,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000578October, November.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000579Kaya yung resulta, ang baba
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000580ng utilization rate for the year.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000581So just to be more prudent also,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000582we just need another table
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000583para po masagutin po natin na maayos.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000584Opo. Well, of course,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000585naggaling po ang data na yan from the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000586DILG. So, tama po. Maganda rin
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000587ilabas nila. Hopefully, makapag-resubmit
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000588ang DILG
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000589nung hinihinging
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000590additional column.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000591Yes.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000592Which is the...
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000593Obligation. Essentially, it's obligation rate.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000594Yes.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000595It's what we're also looking for apart from the disbursement rate.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000596Disbursement, ibig sabihin n'yong binayara na.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000597Di ba? Kahit partial.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000598Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000599So, pero, the point remains,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000600humihingi muli
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000601ng
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000602humihingi muli ng
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-00060338 billion
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000604for 27.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000605Just for Falgo,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000606eh hindi pang ha-utilized yung
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000607yung 2026, the current fund.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000611So, I am flagging this
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000612na baka naman merong
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000613ibang mga ahensya dyan
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000614na magagamit na kagad yung pondo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000616So, hindi automatic na dahil
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000617ganun ang level for 2026
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000618ay kailangang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000619i-appropriate ulit for 2027.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000620So, that's the point. Okay, next topic na po tayo.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000622For now. So, dalawa po yung punto natin.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000624Basis ng award pero sa DBM na natin tatanong
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000626di ba ito presidential pork barrel?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000627Parang may mga clear favorites.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000629Second, the abysmally low utilization rate.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000631And therefore, bakit tumihingi ng mas malaki ulit?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000633Next, kaugnay naman po sa
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000635para sa BFP na po ito.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000636Alam nyo, matagal ng kontrobersyal itong
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000637fire truck procurement
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000638in the previous congress.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000639Alam ko, even though wala ako dito,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000640alam ko, this was subject of congressional
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000641investigation
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000642and
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000643bilang tugon and tacit
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000644acknowledgement of such
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000645by the DILG, sabi nyo nga, okay,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000646para wala nang
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000647wala nang kontrobersya,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000648G2G na po.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000649So, hindi na yung local procurement, G2G
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000650with Korea.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000651Again, the BFP
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000652provided us with a document
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000653regarding this.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000654So, I have some questions.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000655Sabi po, ang plano ay
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000656G2G Philippines
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000657Republic of Korea, and the
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000658coverage would be firefighting
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000659vehicles and related equipment.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000660But also,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000661tama po ba, so in other
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000662words, may tawagin nating hard
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000663component, pero may meron ding soft
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000664component, technical assistance,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000665capacity building, training,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000666knowledge, technology transfer,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000667et cetera, et cetera. Tama po ba?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000668Yes, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000668-split-2Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000669Magkano po
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000670yung
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000671projected
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000672budget or
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000673proposed
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000674budget, and how many
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000675vehicles are to be
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000676procured?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000677How many fire trucks and equipment?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000678For the fire trucks, we need
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000679100
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000680We need 1,500
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000681for 5 years.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-0006821,500
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000683over 5 years po yan?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000684Yes, so 300 per year.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000685Or 300 per year.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000686Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000687Bukod sa fire trucks,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000688meron pa po bang iba? Ano yung kasama
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000689dun sa package?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000690Kung baga, ano po?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000691So, are you asking
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000692regarding sa Korea lang?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000693Yes, ano yung covered nung
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000694agreement? Fire trucks?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000695Tools and accessories.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000696Okay, tools and accessories.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000697Meron pa po ba?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000698How about the maintenance, etc?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000699Sa Korea pa rin yan?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000700So, local na yun?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000701May preventive maintenance yun po.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000702Preventive maintenance. Korea din po.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000703Kasama po yun sa kontrata.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000704Okay. Magiging kontrata if ever.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000705Kasama sa kontrata?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000706Magiging kontrata.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000707Magiging kontrata.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000708But who will be the provider for the maintenance?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000709Local partner na po ba?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000710Or straight from Korea pa yan?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000711Straight from Korea, but
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000712we need a local partner.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000713Korea with local partner.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000714Noted.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000715Okay. Now, as to the legal basis,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000716sabi po,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000717dito rin, pin-provide sa dokumento,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000718Republic Act
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000719number 12009,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000720the New Procurement Act.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000721Sabi po rito,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000722it provides that where a
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000723treaty international agreement or
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000724executive agreement expressly
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000725provides for a different rule,
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000726the terms of
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000727such agreement shall prevail.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000728Okay. So, parang therefore, hindi mag-a-apply
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000729yung normal procurement rules and procedures
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000730if there is an international treaty or executive agreement.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000731So, in this case, ano po ang nag-a-apply?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000732What would justify the exemption from the normal procurement rules?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000733If I may read it, Executive Order No. 459,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000734Series of 1997,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000735requires that the negotiation of treaties and procedures
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

asr-000738and coordination of
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000739the Department of Foreign Affairs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000740Prior authorization
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000741from the President through DFA
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000742is required before negotiations.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000743Okay.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000744Okay.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000744-split-2Pumunta ka kayo sa...
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000745Kasta Korea Trade Investment Promotion Agency,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000746Cotra Act.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000747This provides the purpose of
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000748Cotra in its role in
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000749negotiating export contracts between
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000750the Republic of Korea,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000751and foreign governments.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000752Said role is likewise reiterated
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000753in the Republic of Korea's
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000754Foreign Trade Act,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000755which specifically designated
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000756the Cotra as the agency
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000757exclusively responsible
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000758for export contracts
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000759between governments.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000760Okay. Thank you po. I also have the same document.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000761Well, so, in other words, yung
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000762executive agreement
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000763that will justify
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000764exemption from
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000765procurement rules will be the one
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000766that will be signed. Ganun po ba?
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000767Is that correct?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-000768Yes, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Antonio L. Tinio
asr-000768-split-2Okay.

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001190para mapunan ang mga nabakanting mga posisyon
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001191na ilan pong ahensya na ang nagsabi
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001192noong naproblema po sa sangguniang kabataan.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001193And Mr. Speaker, Good Sponsor,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001194final po na question tungkol sa sponsorship speech niyo pa lang.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001195Tungkol po sa PNP Counterterrorism Center na nabanggit.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001196Meron po bang dokumento o memo
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001197na nagtatatag ng PNP Counterterrorism Center?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001198Maari po ba itong masumite?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001199Pero ang paunan na pong tanong,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001200ano po ba ang scope ng duties and responsibilities
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001201ng itatayong center?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001202Well, this center na itatayo po,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001203this is the, how do you explain it?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001204Data banking.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001205So hindi lang anti-terrorism nandyan,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001206cyber security nandyan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001207Even we need data-driven para po makapagplano
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001208ang ating pong PNP.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001209But pinaka-nakasentro po siya
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001210dahil mahirap po paghiwahiwalay ang building.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001211Regarding operations also ng police.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001212So, it's an anti-terrorism center
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001213na nakapaloob na po dyan ang lahat
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001214regarding data and even lalo na operational system
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001215ng ating pong kapulisan.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001216May memo po ba o dokumento na nagtatatag?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001217This is part of the plan of the PNP.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001218There are no memos but we have the design already
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001219of the building na ating itatatag.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001220Dahil mas madali po na gumawa ng plano
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001221lalo na kung may data banking ka.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001222Mas madali pong operation na gawin
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001223lalo na kung nandoon na po lahat.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001224So, it's a center, data banking
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001225and also paano po pag-operate
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001226ng ating mga kapulisan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001227So, parang all in one.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001228Hingi na lang din po tayo ng ulat tungkol sa disenyo
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001229pati po yung konsepto
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001230dahil po beyond the building
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001231mukhang may pinaplano rin po na
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001232dita-bank, cyber security nga po.

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001244Hingi na lang po tayo ng ulat kung maaari
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001245at ang konsepto rin po nang naibahagi.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001249Maraming salamat, Mr. Sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001250Ang sunod po nating mga tanong ay tungkol po sa body-worn cameras.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001251Ito po ay mga naitanong na natin
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001252at nagpapahayag mo ng pasasalamat
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001253ang representasyon na ito
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001254sa pagbigay po ng ulat na hiningi po natin
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001255at gusto rin po nating mag-follow up.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001256Gaya po, for example,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001257ina-outline po ng body-worn camera guidelines
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001258ang paggamit nito during police operations.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001259Pwede po ba nating matanong,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001260kasama po ba ang mga mobilisasyon
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001261na police operations na gagamitan ng body-worn cameras?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001262Kung ganun po,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001263roughly how many officers po ang
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001264magsusot ng body-worn cameras
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001265tuwing may mobilisasyon?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001266Actually, sad to say, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001267ang body-worn cameras natin ay 2,600 lamang.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001268So, sobra pong kulang.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001269Pero ang kinaganda po,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001270dati ay nabibili natin yung body camera ng 60,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001271nababa na po ng mga nasa 20 to 30.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001272But because of budget constraint,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001273so as of now, we only have 2,600.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001274At ginagamit po ito
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001275during police operations,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001276as stated nga po.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001277At kasama po dito ang mga,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001278for example, mobilisasyons or rallies
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001279kung saan may mga nakadeploy din pong police.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001280To confirm, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001281I cannot be specific,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001282but they use it for operations, Madam Speaker.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001283Gusto rin po natin kasing ikumpirma.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001284For example, may recent lang po na mobilisasyon
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001285the September 21, kahapon po.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001286Pwede po bang may kumpirma
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001287kung ginamit po ang mga body-worn cameras?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001288During yung deployment ng officers doon?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001289Can you repeat the sample?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001290Sa deployment of police officers po,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001291yesterday, sa September 21 mobilisasyon,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001292nagamit po ba ang mga body-worn cameras?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001293Yes, Madam Speaker.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001294Ah, sige.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001295Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001296Ukol nga rin po sa specifications and standards
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001297ng mga body-worn cameras,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001298nagsumite ang ahensya ng kopya ng Memorandum Circular No.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-0012992024-58, na naglalahad ng technical specifications.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001300Nabanggit din po ng ahensya sa committee hearing
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001301na magpaprocure po ito ng mga bagong AI-capable BWCs
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001302na magagamit ng mga polis.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001303Applicable pa ba ang mga technical specs
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001304na nakalagay sa memo two years ago
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001305bilang standard ng PNP?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001306Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001307Actually, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001312na kaya rin po natin yung presyo.

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001314na nandun yung technical specifications,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001315outdated na po ba ito?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001316Dahil nga po, as mentioned,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001317nag-evolve na yung teknolohiya
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001318in relation sa paano maging AI-capable ang BWCs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001319Yes, May 2024 po tayo,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001320pero ina-update po natin ito
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001321para maging responsive sa pangangailangan ng ating pong kapulisan, especially on operations.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001322May bagong memo na po ba na naglalahad ng mga bagong technical specifications?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001323As of now, ina-update pa po ng ating kapulisan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001324So, we are still following yung 2024
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001326nasa TWG na po ito

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001330Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001331Pwede po bang mabahagi din ng DILG
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001332ang procurement plan
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001333para sa mga AI-capable body-worn cameras
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001334gaya po ng ilang units
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001335ang balak na bilhin?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001336Saan at kanino bibilhin?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001337At magkano ang gagastusin nito?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001338Kung maaari po ay pwedeng isumite na lang po ito.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001339Yes, we will submit
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001340but I will ask the DILG kung meron po sila
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001347Okay.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001348Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001349Ipinagpapatuloy ng kinatawang ito
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001351dahil siyempre,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001352nag-aalala kami sa integridad
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001353ng pagtakpo ng mga operasyon ng PNP.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001354Naniniwala kami na ang body-worn cameras
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001355ay isang paraan para sa publiko
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001356at para sa aming mga mambabatas
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001357na masubaybayan kung paano isinasagawa
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001358ng PNP ang kanilang mga operasyon.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001359Ang paglalagay ng dekalidad
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001360na body-worn cameras,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001361sa mga polis ay nagbibigaydaan sa amin
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001367kung saan ang polis mismo
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001368ang may paglabag sa ganitong patakaran.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001369Gustong linawin ng representasyong ito
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001370na hindi para sa modernisasyon
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co

Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001449ang praktika na ito.

Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001472But what I can say is never po tayo na nilalabag yung karapatang batao,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001473lalo na marinig ang boses ng ating mga mamamayan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001474Hindi po nagtotolerate ang ating chief PNP, lalo na sa mga abusadong polis.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001475Marami na pong rally na nangyari.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001476Pero nakita naman po natin na nagiging peaceful.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001477Because pag may nag-rally, hindi lang po yung anti or pro.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001478Ang importante po ay nasa batas, may permit.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001479Tumusunod tayo sa rule of law.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001480At sinisiguro ng kapulisan ang safety ng bawat Pilipino.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001481Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001482Ininstruct ko na po ang staff na dalhin the rest of the document
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001483para po ma-insure na magkaroon ng kapulisan.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001484Ito ang time para mag-peruse ang ating representasyon.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001485If you may, since we have this, we can reply also in writing, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001486para po masatisfy ang ating colleague.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001487Maari po bang makita ulit, dahil nakita po natin yung ibang mga pages neto.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001488Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001489Dahil limited yung ating oras, I'll proceed to the next line of questioning po muna.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001490Yes, thank you.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001491Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001492As a final manifestation, bago po mag-move on tayo sa next line of questioning,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001493na alam po natin na sa isang demokrasya, dapat may kalayaan ang mga individual
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001494na hindi lang mag-organisa ng kanilang sarili,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001495kung hindi punahin din po ang gobyerno.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001496Ito po ay constitutionally protected right.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001497At mas lalong nakakalungkot na tinitignan ng PNP ang praktikang ito
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001498bilang bagay na positibo.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001499At ito mismo ang nagpapakita kung gaano hinaharap ng administrasyon ng criticism.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001500But Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, we will follow up with the rest of the pages.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001501For now, Mr. Speaker, because the sponsor shared their concerns about school shooting
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001502and ang role ng ECCD sa pagtaguyod na ang ating kabataan or ang mga bata
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001503ay safe.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001504and secure. Gusto rin po nating i-confront sila sa isang napakita natin
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001505sa budget briefings noong ng Department of National Defense.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001506I'm holding up a picture right now po, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001507Papakita ko po sa camera saglit bago po sa ating distinguished sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001508Ito po ay educational tour for 150 students of a child development center
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001509ng Barangay.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001510Barangay North Poblasyon, Maramag, Bukidnon.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001511At nakuha po natin itong picture na ito from the 89th Infantry Battalion Facebook page.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001512Binapakita po nito ang picture na may mga bata in the tender ages of younger than six
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001513na may hawak po at pinapahawak po ng mga long firearms.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001514And this is a tour of a child development center, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001515Ang tanong po natin, katanggap-nanggap po ba ito?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001516May ensure po ba ng DILG na makakatuwang ang ECCD sa pagsigurado na walang ganitong educational tours
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001517na gagawin ang child development centers?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001518Moving forward, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001519Can you repeat that question again?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001520Yes, we will give the plenary page the copy of the photo.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001521Okay, so sometimes a picture says a thousand words.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001522Okay, so hindi ko pa talaga mayasagot.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001523But the advocacy is the safety of our kids.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001524So kasi kung tingnan niyo po talaga medyo hindi maganda.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001525Pero sa mga bata, baka pwedeng sinasabi rin na paano humawag.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001526Huwag nang kagamitan na safe.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001527But I totally agree with you.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001528We have to call the attention of the agency regarding this picture.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001529So I think sa cabinet naman po, pwede pong pag-usapan po ito.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001530Thank you for calling the attention of the DILG.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001531Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001532Ang pinapakita ng scientific studies ay gun exposure at a young age increases instantaneously.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001533This is the result of the advances of accidental shootings and even perpetration of violence.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001534And nabanggit na rin naman po na mahalaga ang early childhood care and development.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001535Gaya rin po nang sinabi ng sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001536So may commitment po ba na hindi na po ito mauulit.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001537Walang Child Development Center educational tour.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001538At makakatawang yung ECCD to ensure na ang pagpapatakbo ng mga CDC ay para po sa paglinang ng kabataan.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001539Hindi po sa mga...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001540Ganitong kinds of gun exposure, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001541Yes, we will commit to that.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001542We will investigate and we will commit na hindi na po ito mauulit.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001543Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001544Unfortunately, this just happened this year.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001545So sana po magkaroon ng kaagarang...
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001546If you can give me the date siguro, I can also...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001547Yes po, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001548And just like in the past po, we express our deep concern in responding to the crisis of school shooting.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001549And psychology experts and various scientific papers already proved that the approach to this topic must be centered on a child's mental health.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001550And so it concerns us that with the most recent school shooting, not only is social media and the dark web blanketly blamed for it,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001551although kailangan din investigahan yun, pero may mga iniisip na solusyon gaya po ng mga warrantless searches in the homes of gun owners.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001552So as a lawyer, I'd like to make it clear.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001553The violation of...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001554The violation of a person's rights will not solve school violence.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001555This representation can think of action steps it must first prioritize to ensure children do not commit school violence.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001556Gaya po ng better guidance of psychologists for mentors and parents to mitigate bullying and its effects on children.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001557Digital literacy lessons for children so that they may taught at a young age to be critical of things they interact with online.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001558Stricter gun policies and monitoring for government employees with guns.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001559Given that the recent school shootings...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001560Result of children na may access po sa guns ng parents and guardians na sila po ay members ng state forces or government employees.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001561So, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, sa mga huli po natin sigurong tanong, pero ang una nating gustong i-raise ay na-raise po natin sa Dangerous Drugs Board.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001562This will be the final leg of questioning in relation po ito sa supposedly...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001563DILG Memorandum Circular No. 2022-118, which makes anti-illegal drugs the mandatory peace and order and public safety or POPS focus area for every LGU.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001564So, nakita po natin na marami pong mga issues on peace and order, pero yung anti-illegal drugs yung center.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001565Pwede po bang ma-enlighten kung ano pong...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001566Yung assessment yung nagawa that singled out drugs as the mandatory category.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001567And given po yung Dangerous Drugs Board's claimed shift to health and rights, yung circular po na ito na 2022 pa, under review po ba ito?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001568Meron po bang magiging amendment dito? Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001569It's very hard to answer since it's a DDB.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001570And it's DILG also. DILG, Supervisionary Power over LGUs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001571But, well, ang ating pong kapulisan ay nagtatrabaho rin po talaga para po sugpuin ng illegal drugs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001572And as I've mentioned, yung accomplishment report po nila.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001573But, is it enough? I don't think so.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001574We have to do more.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001575So, we have to think of more ways.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001576Especially kung paano...
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001577Kung paano natin na protektahan ang ating pong mga kabataan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001578But, this regarding drugs is an issue between DDB and PDEA, ang head agency po dyan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001579And bago po gumalaw ang kapulisan, dapat po ay deputize po sila ng PDEA.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001580Or else, I know you're a lawyer, technically, madidismiss po yung ating kaso.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001581We raised this question, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, dahil may sinabi nga pong shift.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001582In health and rights.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001583Pero kung papansinin din po natin sa paggasta ng gobyerno, kung paano harapin yung anti-illegal drug operations,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001584kalakhan po ng focus neto ay nasa criminalization aspect pa rin po.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001585Ibig sabihin po, sa implementation ng POPs plans ng mga local government units natin,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001586center pa rin po neto yung, well, intelligence, kung sino po ang mga drug users,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001587kung sino po ang mga suppliers, etc.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001588At gusto natin makita kung dahil may claimed shift yung Dangerous Drugs Board na dapat pong may coordination with the ILG,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001589paano po neto na-actualize away from a criminalization framework?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001590Yes, actually, Madam, Mr. Speaker, it's a continuing effort.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001591So, hindi po, porket ito na po yung ating palisya ngayon, ini-improve po po yan.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001592So, depende po yan sa sitwasyon rin.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001593So, continuing po siya, hindi po yan nakakalimutan ng DILG family.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001594Tumutulong po tayo dyan, tumutugon tayo dyan, lalo na meron po tayong mga officers din sa bawat LGUs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001595So, it will serve as a reminder na yung anong obligasyon ng buong sangay ng gobyerno, lalo na ng local government unit.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001596Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001597Ang update natin ng Dangerous Drugs Board ay this year daw po ay may i-release silang,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001598enhanced Philippine, well, pads, na ito po yung pagharap sa anti-drug strategy nila,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001599na implemented na raw po de facto, even though ay i-release pa lang po yung e-pads.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001600May update po ba, or pwede po bang malaman kung may nagbago na po ba sa LGU level plans, monitoring, and indicators?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001601As of now, Mr. Speaker, wala pa pong update from DDB.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001602Papunta po sa DILG.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001603Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, ang punto po naman nito ay may mukhang disconnect sa paano po gusto ng Dangerous Drugs Board
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001604na ituloy-tuloy ang anti-drug, anti-legal drug strategy, at paano po ito na i-implement sa ating LGUs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001605Yes, thank you for that question.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001606Actually, somehow I know about DDB and PIDEA.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001607I handled the budget three years in the 19th Congress.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001608DDB is policy, PIDEA is implementation.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001609But the problem is PIDEA, do they have sufficient men? No.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001610So, minsan nga po, kailangan po deputize.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001611May mga operational na ginagawa na po ang PIDEA.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001612Paano po padaliin ang pag-operate rin ng ating kapulisan?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001613Dahil very frustrating rin po sa ating kapulisan, lalo na pag may nahuli regarding drugs,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001614because of certain technicalities,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001615na hindi po nabigay ang papel ng PIDEA, etc.,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001616nadidismiss po yung ating kaso.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001617So, we recognize the problem, but the DILG is committed na mas maganda po sigurong pag-usapan pa lalo ng DDB,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001618although wala po talagang directang mandato ang DILG doon,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001619but since they are handling the police, so tama po kayo na dapat mas maganda yung pag-uusap at continuing on how to improve,
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001620lalo na ang ating operation regarding illegal drugs.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001621But one thing is for sure, hindi po natin kailangan na pumatay ng tao para po masugpo ang problema sa droga ng ating pong bansa.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001622Ang huling tanong na lang po natin, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001623Kapansin-pansin sa mga POPs ng mga LGU, yung pinupondohang Barangay Intelligence Networks.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001624Ito po yung isa sa mga POPs ng mga LGU, yung pinupondohang Barangay Intelligence Networks.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001625Ito po yung isa sa mga POPs ng mga LGU, yung pinupondohang Barangay Intelligence Networks.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001626Ito po yung isa sa mga pinaka-heavily-funded items under anti-drugs POPs plans.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001627At kasama po dito ang mga aktividad gaya ng recruiting informants, maintaining safe houses, identifying high-value and street-level individuals.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001628Ngunit wala pa tayong nakikitang specific issuance na nag-establish o nagbibigay ng regulasyon tungkol po sa pagkakaroon ng Barangay Intelligence Networks.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001629Line item lang po siya sa mga LGU POPs plans.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001630So ang tanong po natin, Mr. Speaker, dahil napupondohan na ang Barangay Intelligence Networks for years now, at scale, meron po bang specific DILG or national issuance na may numero na maaari pong makahingi ang representasyon ng kopya na ito that authorizes and governs these Barangay Intelligence Networks?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001631At sa anong otoridad po ba ito?
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001632Now oversee yung informant recruitment, safe house use.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001633Kapag...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001634Nag-gather po ito, chinecheck kung effective yung paglabas po ng pondo, etc.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001635Thank you for that question, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001636That's between the PNP and the LGU.
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001637So on DILG po, has nothing to do about it.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001638So wala pong DILG issuance or national issuance na nag-govern po?
Rep. Arnie B. Fuentebella
asr-001639I would like to remind, honorable ko, none, it's okay ha, none, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001640Madam, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor, just to wrap it up.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001641Dahil napansin natin na...
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001642Napakat laki ng pondo.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001643Sa Barangay Intelligence Networks, under POP's plans,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001644na kahit sinasabi natin nagbabago or nag-evolve continuously,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001645pero ang DDB na mismo yung nagsabi na inaabandonan na ito dati
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001646at ginagawa na yung bago, may malaking mismatch po talaga
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001647doon sa paano nabibitbit sa baba ang mga ibang-ibang plano
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001648na gustong i-implementa sa taas, na nakakadulot ng totoong harm,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001649lalo na sa mga biktima ng gera kontra droga,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001650ng kanilang mga pamilya na hanggang ngayon di pa rin po nakaka-recover
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001651totally, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001652I have many other questions but I have run out of time, Mr. Speaker, good sponsor.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001653I will just simply conduct other questions via dialogue,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001654but for now, there being no other questions,
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001655from the minority, I move to terminate the deliberation of the budget of the DILG
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001656and other attached agencies and corporations.
Rep. Renee Louise M. Co
asr-001657So move, Mr. Chair.

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001713and its attached agencies for fiscal year 2027.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001714Tourism is an investment that multiplies.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001715The government may provide the first peso,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001716but tourism allows that peso to move through our economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001717Umiikot mula sa airport, papunta sa hotel, restaurants, tour guides, transport operators,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001718magsasaka, souvenir shops at maliliit na negosyo.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001719And along the way, that one peso becomes income, jobs, and livelihoods for millions of Filipinos.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001720We already see this happening across our economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001721In 2025, tourism directly generated 2.27 trillion in economic value,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001722equivalent to 8.1% of our GDP.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001723Domestic travelers spent 3.26 trillion,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001724while international visitors brought approximately 698 billion into our economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001725Tourism also supported 7.7 million jobs,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001726or 15.7% of total employment in the Philippines.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001727Mr. Speaker, behind those numbers are people,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001728the hotel employee
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001729who depends on a steady flow of guests,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001730the tour guide waiting for the next group of visitors,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001731the restaurant owner, the driver, the souvenir maker,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001732and the small business owner.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001733They tell us something very important.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001734When we invest in tourism,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001735the benefits do not stay within the tourism sector.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001736They spread across our economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001737Mr. Speaker, dear colleagues,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001738at the 2025 World Travel Awards,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001739the Philippines was named Asia's leading beach destination.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001740Asia's leading dive destination.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001741And Asia's leading island destination.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001742It was our seventh consecutive year as Asia's leading dive destination
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001743and our eighth recognition as Asia's leading beach destination.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001744Our appeal also goes beyond leisure travel.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001745The Philippines was recognized as Asia's best retirement destination in 2025.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001746And this year was named world's number one retirement destination
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001747for 2026 in the Retirement Abroad Index.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001748So the challenge is not whether Philippine tourism has value.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001749The challenge is unlocking its full scale.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001750And promotion is central to that effort.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001751Building on the Love the Philippines campaign,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001752the department has introduced Discover More to Love,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001753reinforcing our existing brand while encouraging travelers
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001754to discover more of our destinations,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001755experiences, culture, and people.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001756Mr. Speaker, the objective is conversion.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001757From seeing the Philippines,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001758to wanting to visit the Philippines,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001759to actually booking a trip to the Philippines.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001760This objective requires the resources to reach the markets we are competing for.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001761For fiscal year 2027,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001762the National Expenditure Program proposes approximately 4 billion
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001763of the Department of Tourism and its attached agencies,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001764around 196 million lower than the fiscal year 2026 General Appropriations Act.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001765This includes 1 billion for the Global Branding Campaign
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001766together with approximately 1.37 billion budget
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001767of the Tourism Promotions Board.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001768Our resources for tourism promotions remain far smaller
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001769than those of several of our major ASEAN competitors.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001770Available comparative figures put Philippine tourism marketing spending
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001771at around 86 million U.S. dollars,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001772compared with approximately 499 million U.S. dollars for Thailand,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001773418 million for Singapore,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001774and 331 million U.S. dollars for Malaysia.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001775Mr. Speaker, we are competing for the same international travelers.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001776Every destination is trying to capture their attention,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001777convince them to book, and persuade them to stay and spend.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001778If we want a greater share of that market,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001779we must be prepared to compete for it.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001780Promotion, however, is only one part of the effort.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001781Tourism works best when government works together.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001782We want visitors to arrive easily, move around efficiently,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001783discover more destinations, and leave wanting to come back again.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001784That requires a whole-of-government effort,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001785because visitors do not experience our agencies separately.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001786They simply experience the Philippines.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001787Given limited fiscal space,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001788additional resources must be targeted where they can make the greatest difference.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001789Scuba diving is one clear example.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001790Our dive tourism industry is estimated at 1.3 billion U.S. dollars.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001791We have 29 dive destination clusters, 956 identified dive sites,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001792and we have been recognized as Asia's leading dive destination
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001793for seven consecutive years.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001794An additional 82.49 million for the Philippine Commission on Sports Scuba Diving
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001795would support the development and promotion of dive tourism,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001796improve data monitoring, and strengthen emergency response capabilities.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001797This is the kind of targeted investment that can reach beyond the tourism activity itself
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001798to resorts, dive professionals, transport operators,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001799restaurants, and businesses in our coastal communities.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001800One tourism product can support an entire local economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001801The same principle applies to our cultural heritage.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001802Intramuros is one such opportunity.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001803Next year, the Intramuros Administration intends to advance its effort again
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001804toward UNESCO World Heritage Recognition
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001805and is seeking additional funding support for the work needed
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001806to strengthen the walled city's conservation, management,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001807and readiness for the UNESCO process.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001808Tourism development is not always about building something new.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001809Sometimes it is about protecting what we already have
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001810and allowing the world to experience it.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001811The industry already contributes 2.27 trillion directly to our economy.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001812It already supports 7.7 million Filipino jobs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001813Our tourism products are already receiving international recognition.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001814The case before us is not whether tourism matters.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001815The numbers have already answered that.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001816The question is how much more value we can create from the tourism economy
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001817and how much of that value can reach our people.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001818And that is why I respectfully urge this Chamber
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001819to support the proposed fiscal year 2027 budget
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001820of the Department of Tourism and its attached agencies
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001821and to seriously consider the necessary augmentation for its programs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001822Let us give Philippine tourism the resources to compete.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001823Let us give more travelers a reason to love the Philippines.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001824And when they come, more reasons to discover, more to love.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001825Maraming salamat, Mr. Speaker, esteemed colleagues.
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano
asr-001826Thank you, Vice Chair Escudero, Majority Leader.
Rep. De Carlo L. Uy
asr-001827Mr. Speaker, I move to recognize Representative Iris Marie de Mesa Montes of Partylist 4K to interpolate the sponsor on the proposed budget.
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano
asr-001828The gentlelady from 4K, Partylist Representative Iris Marie de Mesa Montes is recognized. Please proceed.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001829Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001830Mr. Chair, distinguished colleague,
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001831While the Philippines boasts of world-class destinations,
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001832tourism arrivals remain far below potential compared to our ASEAN neighbors.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001833May we ask the department exactly what are the specific challenges that prevent us from maximizing arrivals
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001834and what concrete strategies are funded in the 2027 budget to overcome these bottlenecks?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001835Salamat po sa tanong, distinguished colleague.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001836Before I begin po, let me...
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001837share the numbers, no?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001838From 2023 up to 2025,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001839nag-increase po ng 18.4% ang tourist arrivals natin.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001840From 2023, 5.477 million.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001841Ngayong 2025 ay 6.484 million.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001842So kahit pa pano po, tumaas ng 18.4%.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001843And it is also notable po, no?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001844Distinguished colleague,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001845na from 2023 also,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001846number 6 po tayo in ranking sa ASEAN.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001847At noong 2024, bumaba ng konti, naging number 7.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001848Pero noong 2025, umangat uli tayo sa number 6,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001849na may 6.4 million tourist arrivals.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001850Number 1 po is Thailand, number 2, Malaysia, number 3, Vietnam,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001851number 4, Singapore, number 5, Indonesia.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001852But it is also notable,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001853um,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001854distinguished colleague,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001855na pagdating po sa marketing budget,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001856medyo maliit po talaga yung nabigay sa ating departamento.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001857Ang budget po natin for 2025 ay 86.68 million dollars.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001858As compared po to 499 million for Thailand,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001859418 million for Singapore,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001860and 331 million for Malaysia.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001861So, um, to be blunt po, talagang,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001862medyo nahuhuli po tayo sa ASEAN,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001863kasi tayo din po yung isa sa may pinakamababang budget po for the department.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001864And, um, it is also notable po na kahit mas mababa,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001865mas mababa pa yung budget natin,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001866kinumpute po natin yung arrivals per million, no?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001867Base po dun sa gastos.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001868And, um, based on arrivals per million,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001869makikita po natin na we have 74,758 arrivals
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001870tourist arrivals per 1 million na ginastos.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001871As compared po to Thailand,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001872which has 66,053 arrivals per 1 million na ginastos.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001873So, kaya po ganun kalaki din yung naging tourist arrivals nila
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001874dahil napakalaki din po yung in-invest nila sa promotions.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001875Gagaya nga ng sinabi ko kanina sa sponsorship speech ko,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001876isa lang po yung pinag-aagawan natin ng mga turista.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001877So, kung sino talaga,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001878yung mas may malaking promotion budget,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001879talagang mas nae-engganyo yung mga turista na pumunta sa kanila.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001880Maraming salamat po, Mr. Chair.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001881Tungkol naman po dun sa abolition ng travel tax.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001882Naipasa na po ng Kongreso yung panukalang batas to abolish the travel tax.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001883So, mawawalan po ng funding stream yung TIEZA projects, ano?
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001884Malaki po ba ang epekto nito sa ating tourism?
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001885At kung sakali po, paano po mautugunan ng ahensya kung sakaling mawalan na ng funding stream yung TIEZA
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001886galing dito sa travel tax abolition?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001887Madam, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001888for year 2026, existing pa po yung travel tax collections.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001889Dito po sa lower house, napasa na po.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001890On third reading, pero as we speak po, pending pa po ang consideration in the Senate.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001891So, as of now, mapupondahan po yung mga projects natin under TIEZA.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001892To give an idea po, for 2025, 4.4 billion po yung pondo for TIEZA.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001893But, if abolished po yung House Bill po natin na 8464, as approved on third reading,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001894sinabi naman po na kung hindi na po makakakolekta ng travel tax, which will fund TIEZA.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001895Actually, hindi lang po TIEZA, kasama po doon ang CHED and NCCA, pupondohan po ito through the GAA.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001896Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001897Yung susunod naman po tungkol sa Tourism Road Infrastructure Program.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001898Ito po, alam naman natin, ito yung Convergence Program with DPWH,
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001899which is actually cornerstone for access roads and tourism infrastructure.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001900Meron po ba tayong...
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001901Ang alokasyon sa 2027 para dito sa mga proyektong ito?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001902Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague, to be blunt po, zero po.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001903Zero po yung allocation natin for the TRIP program.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001904Base po sa records, no, simula po 2025, hindi na po nagkaroon ng pondo for new TRIP programs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001905Lahat po yung continuing.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001906Ganon din po noong 2026.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001907Continuing.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001908Programs na lang po for the TRIP.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001909Wala din pong new programs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001910And for 2027, both new and continuing po ay zero po ang pondo.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001911Mr. Speaker, again, ano po kaya ang magiging epekto na naman nito sa ating tourism industry?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001912Sa totoo lang po, napakalaki po yung magiging epekto nito.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001913Dahil ang pinorposed po na budget ng DOT ay 28 projects po amounting to 6 billion.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001914For year 2027.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001915So, hindi po talaga alam ng department kung saan kukunin tong pondong ito.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001916Sinubmit po nila ito sa DPWH and also sa DBM.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001917But unfortunately, dahil nga po kulang ng fiscal space, hindi po na provide yung budget na nire-request.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001918Maraming salamat po, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001919Ano naman po ang portion sa 2027 budget natin na allocated for digital tourism, marketing, and online platforms?
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001920Given that global travelers now rely on digital channels for destination choices.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001921Yung bago pong campaign ng DOT, yung Discover More to Love, it is a reinforcement initiative under the Love the Philippines campaign.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001922It is actually an online platform where the government partners with the private sector such as airlines, hotels, and tour operators
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001923to offer travel deals.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001924and discounts, and encourage more people to travel around the country.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001925So, in just a few months po, the website has already sold 203,000 airline seats and 800 room nights.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001926Mr. Speaker, it actually helps bring in travelers, generate bookings, and support our tourism businesses.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001927Especially at this time na tumaas po yung fuel cost, kaya medyo mas bumaba talaga yung turismo sa atin.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001928But beyond this po, the Discover More to Love, expound ko na lang din.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001929Since we're at it, the DOT has also tapped BINI and SB19, creating dedicated microsites for them
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001930where fans can explore Philippine destinations through the artists they follow and admire.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001931Malaki po at maganda po yung response.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001932In just two weeks after the microsites were launched, the DOT website where these microsites are hosted recorded 44,000 new users.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001933So, hopefully, magta-translate din to more visitors.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001934Thank you, Mr. Chair, Distinguished Sponsor.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001935Huling tanong na lamang po, tungkol naman po ito sa tourism workforce training.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001936Ano naman po ang mga programa? What programs are funded in the 2027 budget to upscale tourism workers?
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001937Yung guides, hospitality, staff, and local entrepreneurs.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001938So, service quality matches global standards.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001939So, as mentioned kanina in my sponsorship speech, meron po tayong 7.7 million employed Filipinos na tinutulungan ng Department of Tourism.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001940Under accommodation and food and beverage,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001941ang total employment po natin ay...
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-0019422,907,000.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001943Isa po sa mga programa sa workforce natin ay ang Tourism Industry Training Program.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001944So, it benefits 64,000 direct training beneficiaries that focuses on training courses, digitalization and technology, and certification and ladderization programs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001945Yun po.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001946Yun lamang po, Mr. Speaker, Distinguished Colleague, maraming salamat po to the Department of Tourism.
Rep. Iris Marie Demesa Montes
asr-001947Thank you po.
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano
asr-001948Thank you very much, Majority Leader.
Rep. De Carlo L. Uy
asr-001949Mr. Speaker, next to interpelate the sponsor, I move to recognize Representative Sergio Dago'ok of Partylist APEC.
Deputy Speaker Yevgeny Vincente B. Emano
asr-001950The gentleman from APEC Partylist, Representative Sergio Dago'ok is recognized.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001951Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Majority Leader.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001952Magandang gabi po sa ating sponsor at sa pamilya ng Department of Tourism.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001953Would the Distinguished Sponsor yield to some clarificatory questions regarding the budget of the Department of Tourism?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001954Of course, po. Gladly.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001955Unang-una, Distinguished Sponsor.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001956May nakalaan tayo na 1 billion para sa branding campaign. Tama po ba?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001957Tama po yan.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001958So, ang budget ba na ito, mayroong mga measurable performance indicators?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001959Tama po yan.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001960Kandi, Distinguished Sponsor.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001961Distinguished Sponsor, give some specific measurable performance sa branding.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001962Ano po yung mga key performance indicators na tumalab at nagiging efektibo yung branding strategy natin?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001963Mr. Speaker, as mentioned kanina po, yung ginawa po na Love the Philippines campaign, part po ito ng ating branding campaign,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001964in just 2 months, the website has already sold 203,000 airline seats, 800 room nights,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001965and yung microsites po na nilaunch, recorded 44,000 new users,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001966and also, as mentioned also a while ago po,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001967Mr. Speaker, nag-produce din po ng 7.7 million jobs,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001968and may contribution din po sa ating GDP na 8.1%.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001969So, I think po, Mr. Speaker, more than anything,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001970dun po talaga natin mamimesure na ang contribution po ng Department of Tourism sa ekonomiya ay napakalaki talaga.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001971Ang mga numero po ba na yan ay mas mataas?
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001972Compared doon sa dating branding strategy natin?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001977Mr. Speaker, actually tumaas po yung yield ng campaign from 33 percent
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001978To 35 percent. Tumaas po ng 2 percent.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001979Ano po yung percentage na yan? What specific performance indicator?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001980It is the market and product development program outcome indicator.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001981So, mas efektibo ba? Is it safe to conclude na mas kinagat yung branding style natin ngayon kaysa sa dati? Tama po ba?
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001982Mr. Speaker, this thing is sponsor.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001983Yes, Mr. Speaker, kasi for year 2026 po, ang target po natin na inbound arrivals is 6.67 million.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001984And as of now, at ang target po natin for year 2027 is 7.38 million, which is a 10.64 increase.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001985So, yes, Mr. Speaker, nag-work naman po yung bagong campaign.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001986Ganito na lang, may I just respectfully request the distinct sponsor to submit yung data sa Siargao and Dinagat in terms of arrivals, etc., etc.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001987All data which point to the key performance indicators, yung period lang ng comparison,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001988yung dating branding natin compared sa bagong branding.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001989Yes, Mr. Speaker, we will submit po.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001990Thank you, distinct sponsor.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001991Sir, as of August 31, 2026, dito sa data ko, please correct me if I'm wrong,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001992international visitor arrivals stood at 4,400,000.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001993So, tama ka, no?
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001994This is .78% higher than 4,381,585 during the same period, sa 2025.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001995That is correct, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001996Tama po.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-001997Apo.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001998So, ngayon, sa 2026,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-001999target is 6.7 million visitors.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002000Tama po ba?
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020016.7.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002002Yes, po. Correct, po, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002003However, Mr. Speaker, distinct sponsor,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002004to reach exactly 6.7 million from August level
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002005would require approximately
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020062 million
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002007284,000
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002008additional arrivals
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002009from September
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002010to December
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002011or about
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002012571,000 per month
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002013on average.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002014That calculation is not
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002015Sa tingin nyo ba,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002016makukuha natin
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002017yung remaining
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002018target?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002019Yes, po, Mr. Speaker,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002020kasi papasok na po tayo sa peak season
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002021which is the holidays.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002022Saan na?
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002023Okay.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002024Doon sa promosyon, no,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002025versus infra,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002026mayroon tayong
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020276.02 billion
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002028na funding gap.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002029During the briefing,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002030DOT told us that
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002031it faces
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002032an estimated
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020336.02 billion
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002034financing gap
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002035involving 28 tourism
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002036infrastructure projects
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002037after DPWH
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002038shifted
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002039responsibility for financing
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002040new and continuing
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002041tourism projects
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002042proposed by
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002043DOT. The proposed
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002044amount was not
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002045included in the
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020462027
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002047NEP. Tama po ba iyon?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002048Correct po, Mr. Speaker, zero budget po.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002048-split-2So, this is potentially
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002049one of the most important
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002050issue, no,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002051doon sa budget natin
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002052sa
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-0020532027.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002054For me,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002055spending 1 billion
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002056promoting destinations
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002057has limited
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002058value. I don't know,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002059I am not a tourism expert.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002060Personal na opinion ko lang to.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002061Kasi 1 billion yung sa promosyon
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002062palang natin, no.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002063So,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002064alin kaya ang mas importante
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002065itong mga infra na to
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002066or yung
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002067branding natin.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002068So, no need to answer
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002069kasi hindi rin ako sigurado
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002070kung ano ang tama.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002071Mas kayo yung nakakaalam dyan.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002072Kung alin ba yung
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002073importante, yung ulamba o yung
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002074yung
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc

Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002076rise. Ito yung ano eh,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002077parang nangyayari
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002078dito. Naipromote mo
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc

Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002080doon sa destination, wala
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc

asr-002096mga INPRA to,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002097kung, ah, for me, no,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002098Congress should demand the complete
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002099list of the 28 projects.
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002100Ah, sino ba yung
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc

asr-002130Um, pero ang sabi po ng DPWH,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002131um, hindi na po sila ang hahawak yan.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002208So,
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002209sa sampo po na, in my
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002210experience, pito po
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002211ang nagsasabi na

Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002233consistent po iyon
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002234na karamihan
Rep. Sergio C. Dagooc
asr-002235pumunta sila dahil yung

Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002371Madam Sponsor,
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002372kanina po medyo napapiyawa na itong
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002373puntong ito, pero gusto kong mas diinan pa
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002374ng konti as a part of a continuing
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002375conversation mula po ng ating
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002376budget briefing
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002377sa committee nitong nakaraang linggo.
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002378Madam Sponsor, considering the
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002379disparity in terms of
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002380tourism promotion budget among
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002381ASEAN countries, kanina po nabanggit nyo
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002382talagang medyo kulela tayo.
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002383Sa ASEAN, when it comes to tourism promotion
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002384budget, na pwede rin nating basahin na
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002385kulela tayo when it comes to
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002386tourism investment from
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002387the state,
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002388how will the DOT ensure
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002389that our limited resources,
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002390and I say limited as an understatement,
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002391would generate the maximum
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002392impact in attracting visitors
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002393to the country?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002397Mr. Speaker, esteemed colleague,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002398with the limited fiscal
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002399space, the DOT will
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002400concentrate its resources on
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002401priority source countries
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002402and tourism products with the strongest
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002403potential to generate arrivals,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002404bookings,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002405and visitor spending, rather than
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002406compete with the larger promotional
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002407budgets of its ASEAN neighbors.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002408Mag-focus po tayo sa mga
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002409bansa na South Korea,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002410Japan, the United States,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002411Canada, and Australia.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002412Of course, supported by target campaigns
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002413and partnerships with airlines,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002414tour operators, and
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002415travel platforms.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002416Mag-convert din po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002417itong mga promotions na ito into bookings
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002455Sabi nga po nila, daig po na
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002456maparaan ang mayaman. So hopefully
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002457the plan works and that with the limited
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002458resources, magkaban po natin
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002459ang paraan na ma-maximize yung
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002460impact in terms of
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002461promotion. Punta naman po tayo dun sa
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002462mas domestic na issue.
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002463Ito po yung domestic
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002464tourism. Alam po natin
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002465that domestic tourism is a major
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002466driver of economic activity
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002467in the country. How does the
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002468DOT plan to further strengthen
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002469the domestic market
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002470and encourage more
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002471Filipinos to explore destinations
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002472within the country?
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002473Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002474Mr. Speaker, in
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-0024752025,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002476Filipinos made 140
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002477million domestic trips.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002478An increase of nearly
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-0024795% from the previous
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002480years.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002481Spending from these trips supports
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002482our hotels, restaurants, transport
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002483drivers, and small businesses as well as the
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002484families who depend on them.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002485Sabi ko nga po,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002486dapat pahalagahan po natin
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002487na malakas yung domestic tourism dito sa
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002488ating bansa dahil instead na
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002489gastusin pa po ng mga Pilipino
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002490yung pera nila sa labas ng bansa, they travel within the Philippines at gastusin yung pera dito. Kaya napakalaking contribution din po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002491ng domestic tourism sa
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002492GDP ng bansa.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002493To strengthen this, ang isa po na ginagawa
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002494ng DOT is the
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002495tourism industry training program.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002496It benefits
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-00249764,000 direct training beneficiaries
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002498and focus on training courses,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002499digitalization and technology,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002500and certification and
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002501ladderization programs.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002502Tuloy-tuloy po yung mga training natin
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002503sa ating mga domestic
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002504employees po sa
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002505tourism industry.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002506So dun po tayong malakas talaga eh sa mga tao.
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002507Maraming pong salamat
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002508Madam Sponsor.

Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002519tourists to love the Philippines

Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002521better, especially in terms of
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002522affordability and accessibility.
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002523Let me move on to a point that was
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002524mentioned by the good speaker about our
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002525scuba diving spots
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002526in the Philippines. Nabanggit po ninyo
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002527that given our 29 dive
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002528destinations, there are
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña

asr-002532How big is the economic contribution
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002533of dive tourism to the country?
Rep. Percival "Perci" Cendaña
asr-002534Madam Sponsor, Ginong Speaker.

asr-002703specific programs ang
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002707ang mga kongkretong ginagawa ng
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002708Department para mapalago ang diving
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002709industry?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002710Ah, Mr. Speaker, esteemed colleague,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002715Ang initiative po ng dive
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002716tourism natin for year 2026
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002717um, ay yung mga trade development
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002718and trade support.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002719So sumasali po tayo sa mga dive
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002720expos around the world.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002721Ang investment po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002722ng Departamento ay P3.2
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002724P39.56 million in stakeholder sales leads.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002728Kamali din po tayo sa Salon de Plongés sous-marine 2026.

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002733Thank you, Mrs. Speaker, Madam Sponsor.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002734My next question, with the growing potential and contribution of the Philippine dive tourism,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002735is the proposed 49 million or 50 million budget sufficient for PCSSD to fully deliver its mandate?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002736Para mababa. Sabi nga nila, invest more.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002737Gain more.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002738Eh kung 50 million lang, mababa.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002739And especially, kanina sinabi rin ni Kong Percy na meron tayong 956 dive sites.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002740Napakarami na ito.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002741Eh kung 50 million, divided by mo sa 956, para lang tayo na malimos.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002742We're here not to scold you.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002743Gusto namin talagang palakasin.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002744Kasi at the end of the day, ang makikinabang ang bansang Pilipinas.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002745So kami ay para sa inyo.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002746So kailan natin.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002747With the 50 million, can you justify with the 956 sites, diving sites na sinabi ni Kong Percy?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002748Kaya ba natin?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002749Mr. Speaker, Madam Sponsor.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002750Mr. Speaker, hindi po kaya.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002751Actually, yung budget po na naibigay is actually strictly parang survival budget lang po ng ahensya.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002752Kaya nga po, as mentioned earlier,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002753is po ang ahensya ng additional na 82.49 augmentation to fund standards, research, and safety networks and operations po ng ahensya.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002754Meron ako nakita rin kanina.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002755I'm going back again sa...
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002756diving? Kasi ako, hindi ako
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002757nagda-dive, no? Kasi the last time
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002758I went to,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002759I think that was in Negros,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002761ako napuntang, puro mga foreigner.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002763somewhere, nakalimutan ko sa Negros eh.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002764Pero marami daw
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002767Yung naka-mark doon.

asr-0027772027 po, the DOT
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002782million.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002782-split-2No, what I'm asking, sino may

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002794I just want to know
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002795kung billion yun, Mr. Speaker, o
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002796million lang, magkano?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

asr-002804Million lang pala. Akala ko
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002805billion. Kasi kung billion,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002806sabi mo, LGSF, so
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002807bigay sa local government
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002808the 956 sites, sigurado ko.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

asr-002812abay, magdadatingan
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002813ng mga turista natin.

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002816gusto nila, mga bago.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002818I don't see that we promote
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002819these 956 sites.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002820No? At karamihan na ito
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002821talaga is a

asr-002828Totoo po yan. And actually,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002829yung mga divers po natin, they typically
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002830stay longer and spend more po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002831than our
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002832average tourists.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002833Kasi, remember, no?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002834When you go to Vietnam, mas mura pumunta sa
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002835Vietnam kaysa pumunta ka ng Siargao eh.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002836Diba? Do you agree with me,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002837Mr. Speaker?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002838Minsan po. I agree po.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002839Kasi, murang pagkain
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002840sa Vietnam, mura lalo pag may sale
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002841ang ticket nila. Kaya, doon sila nagpupunta
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002842kaysa Siargao, Boracay.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002843Ang gaganda, ito, diving natin kay Compersey.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus

Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002852Etong Tiesa, eto,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002853paborito na lahat to eh.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002854Mr. Speaker, currently a Filipino
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002855economy class traveler generally pays
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-0028561,620
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002857travel tax. Tama ba ito?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002858Yes, Mr. Speaker.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002859So, ano ang,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002860paano nyo dinidibay itong
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-0028611,620 na ito?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002862Yung travel tax po,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-00286340% goes to
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002864CHED,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-00286510% goes to
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002866NCCA, and 50%
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002867is allocated to Tiesa.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002868Tiesa means sa DOT,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002869under DOT?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002869-split-2Yes, po.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002870And then,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-0028712025, magkano
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002872yung pera na-collecta nyo?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002873For 2025,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002874ang na-collecta po sa travel tax
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002875is
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-0028768,870,000,000.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002877So, 4.4 went to
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002878Tiesa, 3.5 went
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002879to CHED, and 887,000
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002880went to NCCA.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002881That's for 2025?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002881-split-2For 2025.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002882And how about for 2026?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002883For 2026,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002884from January,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002885to July,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002886Mr. Speaker, total of
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-0028874.7 billion, so 2.3
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002888went to Tiesa, 1.8 to
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002889CHED, and 474,000
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002890to NCCA.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002891So, basically, it's average like that,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-0028928 billion pa rin. Kasi half pa lang,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002893naka-4 billion ka na.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002894About 4 billion or less.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002895So, in short, saan na pupunta yan?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002896Who
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002897has the authority
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002898na, you know,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002899does it go back to our treasury,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002900kayo na gumagamit dyan?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002901Again, I'm not trying
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002902to imply anything.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002903Ito, gusto ko lang palakasin ng ating
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002904turismo. Kasi, ako,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002905pag napupunta ako sa ibang lugar,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002906sana sa Pilipinas, kayang-kayang na ito.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002907Kasi, ang gagaling ng mga Pilipinas,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002908very hospitable tayo eh.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002909Yung authority po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002910ng mga funds na
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002911nakokollect through travel tax goes to
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002912the treasury, and then
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002913nagsasubmit po, in the case of Tiesa,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002914nagsasubmit po sila ng...
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002915So, binabalik po ito sa
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002916National Treasury at nagre-request po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002917ang DOT for a special accounts budget.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002918Para po,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002918-split-2abolishing
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002919yung
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002920travel tax na yan, no?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002921So, ano ang
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002922contingency plan nyo in case,
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002923in case lang naman, ma-abolish
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002924ito?
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002925So, speakers, sa ngayon po, pumasa na po
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002926sa Kongreso on third and final reading.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002927Sa Senado, hindi pa po.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero

Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002932sa mga nakollect sa travel tax.
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002933So, pupondohan po through the GAA
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002934ang Tiesa, ang NCCA,
Rep. Marie Bernadette G. Escudero
asr-002935and ang CHED po.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002936Actually, no?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002937It's only 8 billion, no?
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002938A year. So, kayang-kaya naman natin
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002939yan sa GAA.
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
asr-002940So, saving
Rep. Presley C. De Jesus
