That's not an event Uh my dear senator
10:49.7
when Uh the governor is inviting people
10:54.1
Uh the DNR cannot stop the govern No but
10:58.3

11:19.7
may call kung sino yung mga guest na
11:21.6

11:27.8
may mga pa siya o EA na magsasabi sa
11:29.9
kanya sorry po go Hwag muna natin siya
11:32.0

11:40.7
when you're government Well I'm also a
11:42.4
politician but but I have the right
11:45.4
What's What's good is that the rapid
11:51.8
cancelled because it's inside a
11:54.0
protected area I know lital was not
11:57.2
canceled Because it's operating outside
12:00.1
the protected area Madam sponsor Mr
12:05.4

DNR project transform now Before I
12:18.3

12:59.7
kasi event ito gagalangin ko request mo
13:03.5
i don't think the govern said no Hindi
13:05.8
pwede bisita ko to eh i don't think the
13:08.4
governor will say
13:10.6
that don't think the governor will say
13:13.3
that but in his mind he cannot say like
13:17.8
if you're a constituent in the province
13:21.6
you cannot say it directly to your
13:23.7
constituent Oo kahit na gusto niyang
13:27.1
sabihin hindi niya means the governor
13:30.1
has a on environmental regulations
13:33.6
necessarily therefore meron kayong may
13:37.4
karapatan ng DNR na tumangi kung sino
13:39.2
yung mga bisitang ayaw papasukin diyan
13:41.3
sa event nila because that was an a d
13:50.2
event now sasabihin k reason kung bakit

So but hindi man lang nila kinonsider
19:10.1
itong Awards na natanggap Na masungi
19:13.3
therefore They're more than
19:17.5
na But there It's the the land is a
19:22.0
protected area owned by the government
19:24.7
it cannot be given to any private entity
19:28.4
how How about a project transform would
19:31.1
it project transform would benefit from
19:34.1
the knowledge and experience of masungi
19:35.8

19:39.4
can property I know po madam sponsor Mr
19:42.4

19:54.2
transform itong experience at itong mag
20:03.1
masungi Kayo po madam negosyante po kayo
20:06.0
Madam sponsor But it doesn't solve the
20:09.4
the legal problem of mas I'm not talking
20:12.4
about Madam SP I'm not talking about the

20:16.5
be legally correct I know you are a
20:20.2
businessman everything should be legally
20:22.8
correct well some sh businessman maybe
20:26.0
yung mga yung mga tusong businessman
20:28.2
maybe hindi hindi
20:31.3
kasi on the history of masungi they They
20:35.1
were granted that to build socialized
20:37.7
housing during the old the old times you
20:41.7
You have to go back to the history They
20:45.0
did not build socialized housing they
20:48.2
built Uh uh what do you call this a
20:52.3
Resort and that is not the original Uh

27:51.6

27:55.4
certain mining companies Hindi po
27:58.3
information ng DNR at ang ginagamit ay
28:02.8
yun ah the data exempted for disclosure
28:07.6
in the foi is any data in the course of

applicants must comply with the data
28:32.2
2012 So yung methodological reports

Kasama rin po sa Exception na sa foi act
28:38.8

28:44.3
information ang DNR doon po sa mga
28:48.4
gustong mag-inquire especially
28:53.1
NGOs espcially environmental about the

29:01.2
now does it involve National Security
29:04.3

29:08.1
minerals Anong grade mga minerals o or
29:13.2
minimina National Security ho
29:23.3
paan is that personal privacy personal
29:26.7
communication It's It's not really about
29:29.9
security National Security It's that the
29:33.9
DNR can practice the based on the data
29:38.0
privacy Act of 2012 not for security why
29:42.0
bakit nga po Bakit in exempt Ah siguro
29:46.3

30:24.3
doctrine p regalian doct all lsang
30:30.4
all land that's the region all lands
30:34.4
owned by the state exactly shortcut so
30:39.3
therefore kung iun ay pag-aaari ng state
30:42.5
ng estado may karapatan ang lahat ng
30:45.2
pilipino na malaman magkaroon ng
30:47.6
impormasyon tungkol sa mga bagay-bagay
30:49.8
na kung saan ay may nakikinabang diyan o
30:52.9
may nag-explore diyan o merong mga
31:00.7
pagkakitaan So bakit yan sinama
31:10.6
foi kaya daw nila hindi binibigay lahat
31:13.5
ang data kasi yung mga applicant nila
31:15.9
may mga trade secret din and May mga
31:18.3
personal data na ayaw nilang malaman
31:25.5
have have to consent of the applicants
31:29.7
Kasi hindi nila pwedeng ilabas yung mga
31:35.8
important things that they don't want to
31:42.9
public gentlemen if the gentleman can
31:45.4

bayan na compliant ito nagaapply ng ECC
32:12.0

32:16.4
EC can the sponsor answer the
32:19.7
question the data exempted for
32:22.4
disclosure in the foi is any data in the
32:25.8
course of applying for an ECC puru one
32:30.9
1586 This does not include the list of

applicants for ECC provided however that
32:37.6
such a list of applicants must comply
32:40.4
with the data privacy Act of

So yung list of applicants for EC
32:53.9

33:13.0
mga taong karapatdapat na mabigyan ng
33:16.0
approval paano k ito yung mga terrorista
33:18.7
Paano kung ito'y mga masasamang elemento
33:20.8
na naga-apply na pala the
33:23.2
document the public available during
33:26.6
public hearing for
33:28.6
the general public and com so during
33:31.0
public Hearings binibigay ang pangalan
33:33.9
nito I don't think
33:44.0
in an gagawi during the public hearing
33:47.6
they are given but not in
33:57.9
know about the applicants then they
33:59.8
should attend the public
34:02.8
hearing if they want to know about the
34:05.3
applicants they should attend the public
34:07.8
Hearings but during public Hearings are
34:10.2
the names of the applicants being
34:11.5
disclosed yes yes and all the
34:15.2
information pertaining
34:18.0
to the project details during public
34:21.6
hearing including the kind of minerals

that they will be mining what kind of
34:28.0
minerals are there and the grade of the
34:32.7
minerals is that Yes it's open during
34:42.7
hearing but but during Uh public
34:46.5

35:10.1
longstanding complaints of some NGOs but
35:12.9

the public hearing nobody is not
35:19.9
allowed is forbidden to attend it's not
35:24.0

35:53.4

38:16.4
regional office What kind of monitoring
38:19.1
do ah the Regional offices of DNR are

38:29.7
areas the record Okay
38:33.9
um Alam niyo po siguro yung tinatawag na
38:39.1

39:44.4
intensyon kailangan po ng DPWH plan

40:35.8
gentleman is If there is a regulatory
40:38.7
framework Yeah there is moratorium on
40:42.3
this since 2014 from the point of view
40:48.1
DNR and if it will be used for
