00:00In the middle of the discussion on the importance of the newly built Senate building, Senator Nancy Binay can't help but remember the issue between Makati City and Taguig.
00:10We have the first news, Mav Gonzales.
00:14It seems that Senator Nancy Binay flashed back the Senate's investigation on the overpriced Makati City Hall 2 parking building.
00:22Now, they will investigate the newly built Senate building.
00:26Both will go first, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano.
00:29The local politics in Makati was highlighted by Senator Nancy Binay and Senator Alan Peter Cayetano.
00:36It was only when the Supreme Court decided to move to Taguig the former Embobarangay of Makati.
00:42At first, I didn't want to think that there would be such a mess.
00:47But as time went by, we were still returning to the Taguig-Makati issue.
00:55Especially now that we know that we are thinking of running locally.
01:02What is the real intention?
01:04Is the intention to finish the building?
01:07To find out the truth about the building?
01:10Or is it all about politics like 2016?
01:14Senator Cayetano replaced Senator Nancy Binay as chairman of the Senate Committee on Accounts, which is leading the construction of the new Senate building.
01:21The Senate President said that Senator Binay can text Senator Cayetano if they want to talk.
01:26Senator Binay said that Senator Cayetano is not talking to him yet.
01:29But the documents that Senator Cayetano is looking for in the DPWH are already in the custody of the Senate.
01:35He already has access to those documents.
01:39He didn't ask me.
01:40I am also waiting because there are other data in the cloud.
01:43I need to wait for him.
01:45When does he want to talk to me?
01:48I will just tell him that he is the new chairperson.
01:53Who am I to insist on him to talk to me if he doesn't want to talk to me?
01:59Senator Binay has no irregularities when it comes to the construction of the building.
02:03He held several briefings with senators including Senate President Chis Escudero.
02:08But Senator Cayetano did not attend the briefing.
02:11Binay added that some people are spreading rumors about their group, former Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri,
02:18but he refused to mention his name.
02:20The painful thing is that he is behind us.
02:25Senator.
02:26Just think about who is behind them.
02:29He said that the delay of the completion of the new Senate building will be delayed
02:33because of the things that Senator Cayetano is not yet deciding.
02:36There are things that need to be resolved in the building that will not be able to be fully blasted in the construction
02:44because there are issues that need to be resolved by the new chairperson.
02:50But he doesn't know what it is.
02:56So it will really be delayed.
02:58Senator Cayetano is still getting a lot of statements but he still has no answer.
03:02This is the first news.
