00:00 The last DA of some senators was given the reason why the fund of the defense sector should be increased.
00:07 Some young people also want to speed up the procurement process of defense equipment of the country.
00:13 Daniel Madalasta is in the center of the news, live.
00:17 The Senators are encouraging the increase of the budget for the defense sector.
00:24 Meanwhile, Senator Ronald De La Rosa clarified his position regarding the debt of the Philippines.
00:31 There is a saying that if a stone is thrown, the bread will be thrown.
00:37 But in the situation in the West Philippine Sea,
00:39 Senator Ronald De La Rosa said that the armed attack will not be considered
00:44 if the Philippines is hit by a water cannon.
00:47 It's time for the Philippine Coast Guard to bomb the water again.
00:51 We will know when the water is gone. We are pitiful.
00:54 We will just go ahead so we can avoid it.
01:01 We will bomb the water. We will eliminate the armed attack.
01:06 That's why MDT cannot be activated, the mutual defense treaty,
01:11 because water cannon splashing does not constitute an armed attack.
01:22 So it's not an armed attack.
01:24 We will hit the water so we will not be pitiful.
01:27 Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri wants to speed up the procurement process for defense equipment of the country.
01:33 It's fast but it should be guaranteed to be good and not just cheap to use.
01:40 He says that the reforms in the procurement process in the government
01:44 should speed up the purchase of defense equipment
01:48 that the country needs to protect our territories, especially in the West Philippine Sea.
01:54 According to Senator Grace, it's important to defend the territory of the Philippines.
01:59 But for the Senator,
02:01 We cannot trust the public in many of the talks.
02:06 For example, what will be the most important steps is our loyalty to our country.
02:15 Dela Rosa said that she will fight in the plenary to add funds for the defense sector.
02:21 She also clarified that there was a viral rumor that the Philippines' debt is not included.
02:27 Sir, that doesn't mean that many people should have children.
02:32 No. I said that I heard the talk of the poor people that there is a possibility that there will be a solution.
02:42 I didn't say that that's my solution.
02:46 Let's think about it. It's a bad thing to look at us like that.
02:52 Meanwhile, Aljo, in the next few days,
02:56 the various government agencies and departments will be included in the budget hearings in the Senate.
03:03 Aljo?
03:04 Thank you very much, Daniel Manalastas.
