00:00 ... New motorcycle taxi bill natin, first and foremost we very well on development yung prioritization nito. We thank the President, we thank President Pobo Marcos, we thank Speaker Martin Rualdes kasi admittedly parang natinga po ito for quite some time.
00:18 ... We would recall, I think this is already two congresses in the making, and unfortunately with us nandito, may nagbo kasi po namin ito, we were hoping it would be faster. Pero as of last year, nasa TWG pa rin po siya.
00:31 ... Ang nangyari dito admittedly is that although TWG naka 2 or 3 meetings na kami, and I think the last one was last quarter of last year, we were still pending, waiting on the executive.
00:45 ... So I can tell you, nag-extend po ulit yung pilot study by the TWG ng TOTR. So yung original na dapat deadline is before COVID, na na-extend up to this point, naging last year na dapat pero nag-extend sila.
01:00 ... By February magkakaroon na ng final result yung pilot study kahit yung given expansion. Pero with the expansion mukhang it's seen endless. Yan yung issue po namin at TWG.
01:17 ... But with this prioritization, mismo sinabi ng Presidente, sinabi ng Speaker, we are hopeful I think sometime in the next few weeks we'll already be having our 4th TWG meeting perhaps.
01:30 ... And we have good expectation na kahit yung TOTR-TWG will come up with final results na po. So from that point on I think after 1 or 2 more meetings, hopefully, I can't say for sure po kasi different bills have moved at different paces, but hopefully in the next few months yung sa House version will be done.
01:52 ... Definitely I think before if granted tuloy yung priority nito, hopefully before SONA at the very least I would say. But that's based on just our assumption po. Just to be clear, personal assumption po namin based on how bills go.
02:11 ... But this could really change depending rin po on kasi admittedly dun sa TWG there are some differences, but definitely fast-track na po ito given that prioritization by the President and by the Speaker."
