00:00It's not a joke and it's also not a bomb threat to claim yourself as a designated survivor to Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:09She said that when she went to the Brigada Eskwela in Carmen, Cebu.
00:14Nico Sereno of GMA Regional TV was there.
00:21In her last days as Education Secretary,
00:24Vice President Sara Duterte is monitoring the Brigada Eskwela.
00:29Teachers, parents and volunteers are helping each other to arrange facilities and equipment in the schools.
00:36It was launched in Carmen National High School in Carmen, Cebu.
00:40The truth is that we cannot be alone.
00:46We need to be together, happy, united, united and united.
00:51That is why we are here today to reaffirm our spirit of community.
00:58In order to be effective in her deployment to the DepEd on Friday,
01:02Duterte assured the incoming Education Secretary, Senator Sonny Angara, a good transition.
01:09Tomorrow, they will help each other during the turnover.
01:13I know Senator Angara, he's been in government for the longest time, longer than me.
01:20So I am very happy with what we are doing to improve the quality of education.
01:30DepEd officials who signed the courtesy resignation agreed to let them stay in their positions.
01:39I invited them for dinner and I asked them,
01:44please stay until the new Secretary will remove you.
01:48Because otherwise, if the Department of Education is affected, it will be detrimental to the Department.
01:59This is her sixth DepEd activity in Cebu.
02:02Although she was not able to attend the opening of the national games,
02:06she was still invited here because she just visited the athletes in the hospital.
02:11In addition to this, she will also serve as a designated survivor in the President's zone.
02:18She said...
02:19I just met the Vice President who is asking her to attend the games.
02:32This is not a joke. This is not a bomb threat.
02:36I think many missed the point.
02:40So for me, if you didn't answer the first time, I don't think you deserve an explanation.
