00:49.4
hindi na niya pinapayagan mag-explain.
00:52.3
And noong nakita ko na he wanted to get an apology,
00:57.7
from USEC sa DAIN, pagdating nga doon sa numero,
01:01.0
eh ang linaw-linaw doon sa presentation ng DPWH na yung amount na sinasabi niya,
01:07.3
eh wala naman din talaga doon sa as per records of the DPWH.
01:13.5
Originally ba, you were not planning to attend this hearing?
01:16.6
Ah, yes. Ang sa akin naman, kasi unang-una, Christian, hindi rin naman ako member na
01:24.4
tinanggal na rin ako as member of the Committee on Accounts.
01:27.7
So, technically, I am not part of the Committee but during the opening statement naman
01:34.1
ng Sen. Allan, to be fair to him, eh sinabi niya na I am most welcome to attend.
01:39.3
So, nagmonit imitate muna tayo
01:41.4
Kasi hoping that he will be fair in his conduct of the hearing.
01:47.1
Eh habang tumatagal yung hearing, reminds me of another hearing way back in 2015.
01:55.4
Na alam naman natin kung ano talaga.
01:57.7
yung purpose and intent
01:59.6
na ginawa nga ang hearing
02:01.7
sa pamilya ko noong 2015.
02:03.9
Sabi ko nga, it's the same senator,
02:06.6
there's a building,
02:08.4
there's hearings,
02:10.0
and there's a coming election.
02:13.6
feeling nyo it was
02:15.7
another repeat or a repeat of the
02:17.6
2015? So ang pinag-uusapan nyo rito
02:19.8
diba investigation na pinagmanuan
02:21.4
ng mga panahon na yun ni Alan Peter
02:23.8
Caetano, tapos dalawang pang senator,
02:25.7
diba? Tama ba? Yes.
02:27.2
Senators Poco Pimentel and
02:28.9
Sonny Trillanes. Pero syempre, isang
02:31.3
lutang na lutang doon si Alan
02:33.3
Peter Caetano. Bakit yung nasabi?
02:35.1
Mukhang binabalik yun.
02:38.3
ako noong umpisa,
02:41.2
ayokong isipin na gano'n eh.
02:42.8
In fact, yung mga initial interviews
02:45.3
sa akin, sinasabi ko na mukhang
02:47.1
hindi naman gano'n. But habang
02:51.9
I can see the same script
02:53.5
lalang-lalo na kahapon.
02:57.0
it's the same template
02:59.4
as what they did,
03:01.2
as what he did noong 2016.
03:07.1
gustong duroging kayo politically?
03:09.6
Ganon ba yung dating?
03:10.4
I guess, para sa kanya.
03:13.5
Hindi ko lang. Baka
03:17.4
yung embo sa kanya.
03:19.2
Baka he wants more. Baka
03:20.5
it's not just the embo. Baka he wants
03:23.4
Makati already. Kasi noong
03:27.0
meron silang pinatakbo
03:29.5
laban sa sister ko
03:31.2
during that time.
03:33.8
So, baka it's a possible
03:35.3
scenario. Pagdating na
03:40.5
Baka pwede nilang patakbuhin ulit.
03:44.9
political calculus dito? Kasi
03:46.7
umukhang bangayan sa local to, no?
03:49.0
Base rin sa mga binabanggit nyo.
03:51.0
Bakit kayo pinatarget sa tingin nyo?
03:54.7
sa iniisip na pagpagtakbo nyo,
03:57.0
sa pagkamingat? Gano'n ba yan?
03:58.4
Well, unang una, patapos na yung
04:01.0
term ng sister ko. So, I guess,
04:03.0
baka that's an opening na
04:04.9
finished term na yung
04:07.6
sister ko. And then,
04:08.9
di ba, hindi ko naman dinidenay na talagang
04:11.0
I am seriously considering running
04:14.6
of Makati. So, siguro
04:16.9
nakakakita din sila ng opportunity
04:18.8
given the local scenario
04:24.3
kung hindi sila nagsucceed
04:27.0
baka during 2025,
04:29.8
pwede na sila mag-succeed
04:31.4
considering na hindi pa tapos
04:33.4
yung away ng Makati
04:35.3
and
Taguig pagdating doon sa EMBO.
04:40.3
decided na kayo to run for mayor?
04:43.7
Kasi patapos na rin kayo sa Senate,
04:45.1
graduating na. How decided
04:49.6
Katulad nga doon sa mga
04:51.2
interviews ko, ano na ako?
04:59.0
for mayor of Makati.
05:01.1
Kung baga, ano na lang,
05:03.2
still waiting for a few signs.
05:07.1
Kasi parang ba sa lumutin mo?
05:08.8
Alam mo naman yan, you're very familiar with my
05:11.2
signs, right? Nung tumatakba tayo
05:16.0
Nung, ano, you were
05:17.4
a witness nung pagpasok ko
05:19.6
sa mundo ng politika.
05:23.7
sa mga viewers natin,
05:25.1
kinukurit ko kasi yung unang pagtakbo,
05:28.1
ni Senator Nancy V. Miles.
05:30.0
So yeah, I remember, nababanggit niya yung mga signs
05:32.8
sa yan. Pero kung ang tama kontekst
05:34.6
nung karito, yung local race
05:36.7
sa 2025, edi mas pasalimutin
05:38.8
yung case because may kalaban
05:40.9
kayong kaita, no? Tapos may kalaban
05:43.0
kayong mapamilya. Tama ba?
05:47.1
baka nakikita din yan, ha? There's also
05:51.0
Kung sino man yung
05:51.7
imamanok nila. Kasi nga,
05:54.2
nung 2016, meron silang
05:56.3
pinatakbo against my sister. Siguro nakikita
05:58.6
niya na, baka that is also
06:00.5
an opportunity, considering the
06:06.5
yung, asagay, bago natin pag-usapan
06:08.4
yung mismong sagutan ninyo ni Senator
06:10.1
Alan Peter Caytan, para lang malinaw sa mga
06:12.4
viewers natin, no? Kasi dati
06:14.2
kayo yung namuno ng Committee on Accounts, okay?
06:17.0
Ano ba yung specific role ng
06:18.4
it's a very important committee, definitely.
06:20.5
It has to do with the funds, no?
06:21.8
Ng Senado itself. Ano ba yung role
06:24.3
ng committee na yan, vis-a-vis
06:26.3
kung sa ipinapatay yung bagong
06:28.0
Senate building? Yes. So,
06:30.3
you, actually, let's start
06:32.1
yung history ng Senate building
06:37.6
this project was started by
06:40.3
Senator Ping Lacson
06:42.0
when he was the chairperson
06:43.9
of the Committee on Accounts.
06:46.2
So, yung Committee on Accounts, siya yung
06:49.4
sa Senate relocation.
06:52.8
So, maraming component
06:53.8
itong Senate relocation.
06:56.3
And it's not just the
06:58.1
construction of the building.
07:00.4
Isang component yan, kasi di ba, bahagi
07:02.3
ng Senate relocation, that time
07:04.2
is yung pag-procure
07:06.5
ng land kung saan
07:08.4
lilipat yung Senate. And during
07:10.4
that time, nagbutuhan pa kami
07:12.3
kasi yung mga options then was
07:16.5
I think yung isa ata, somewhere in
07:18.2
Quezon City, and then the other one was in
07:20.2
Antipolo. So, yun yung unang
07:22.6
naging bahagi noong
07:24.3
Senate relocation.
07:28.1
where the Senate will transfer.
07:30.8
So, doon na nga, nag-end up na
07:32.6
naka-procure ng property
07:36.3
Na I think, yun yung 1.6 billion.
07:40.3
next phase naman is building
07:42.2
the actual building
07:44.2
of the new Senate, di ba?
07:46.9
So, ito yung phase 1.
07:49.2
The budget estimate
07:50.5
for that was 8.9,
07:52.4
but the awarded amount was
07:58.2
go to the second phase
08:03.0
tapos I think nag-end up siya sa
08:07.0
So, at the moment, doon pa lang
08:08.7
tayo, nagtapos tayo
08:14.3
pinagsama yung phases 1 and 2,
08:16.2
magkano yung cost?
08:18.0
Parang almost 11.
08:20.2
Almost 11. Kasi, I'd like to
08:22.4
also clarify yung context nung
08:24.0
tinatawag na paglobo.
08:26.3
Kasi, nagsumula yan dahil nung naupo
08:28.2
si Senator Jesus Codero, pinareview
08:30.1
niya dahil sabi niya, parang ang laki masyado.
08:32.6
From 8.9 billion or
08:34.1
8 billion, bigla naging 23
08:36.1
billion. Yung konsepto
08:38.2
ng paglobo, is that even accurate?
08:42.3
I think, for me, ha?
08:44.1
Ngayong nagkaroon kami ng
08:46.0
ganitong kulong, parang there's
08:49.3
noong pinaputok yung
08:54.1
Kasi, pinaputok yung
08:56.3
Without even talking
08:58.1
to me, or without even talking
09:00.4
to Senator Ping, na
09:02.2
di ba kahapon, sinabi niya,
09:04.6
bakit hindi ko daw, hindi ako nag-text?
09:07.0
You know, I approached
09:08.3
Senator Lacson, and I
09:10.2
asked him, na baka pwede
09:12.2
mag-briefing tayo,
09:14.5
tayang tatlo, mag-usap tayong tatlo.
09:17.0
Kasi, as the former
09:19.9
component doon sa pag-construct
09:22.4
ng building, that
09:24.0
Senator Lacson is the best
09:26.3
to explain. Kasi, that
09:30.3
his term, di ba? And then, yung
09:31.8
part naman sa akin, yun naman na-explain
09:36.1
Allan, parang moving forward as the
09:38.3
new chairperson, alam
09:40.4
niya yung konteksto, and then yung
09:42.2
decision process niya.
09:45.9
consider, ano ba yung naging
09:48.1
history ng building, di ba? But,
09:50.8
sadly, he declined
09:52.3
that offer from Senator
09:54.1
Lacson. So, doon pa lang,
09:56.3
di ba? Alam mo na na,
09:58.1
um, walang, it's not
10:00.3
about finishing the building.
10:02.8
It's something else, di ba?
10:06.4
Okay. So, pero nilino
10:08.3
naman nila na wala namang ina-allege na
10:10.2
anomaly rito. And I think even
10:12.1
sa, si Senate President
10:14.4
Jesus Colero, sinabi niya wala namang daw
10:16.3
bintang. Pero syempre, yung position
10:18.2
na nakikita ko from the end, walang
10:20.1
ina-allege, pero parang ganun yung dating
10:21.9
with the way it was presented. Tama ba?
10:24.3
Yeah, parang, di ba? It's, it's,
10:26.3
it's not, ano nga, eh,
10:29.8
out in the open, but the
10:34.2
there, di ba? And then, mali pa yung
10:36.2
konteksto na pinagagalingan nila.
10:38.2
Because sa pagkoconstruct,
10:42.1
the cost of the building.
10:45.0
Di ba? So, maling-mali na
10:46.3
talaga yung konteksto
10:52.2
when, I think, ha? Because up to
10:54.3
now, I'm still asking where they
10:56.1
got the numbers for the 23.
11:00.1
assume na sinama nila yung
11:02.1
cost nung building dun sa 23.
11:04.5
But, ang premise nila
11:10.2
dapat ang ginawa nila, dapat sinama
11:12.0
na nila yung cost of
11:13.4
the land dun sa 8.9
11:18.7
So, para tama yung
11:21.6
Yung flow nung numbers.
11:26.1
Thank you for watching!
