00:00Before I proceed with my presentation, I just would like to clarify the reason why we're so passionate together with my group in Mayors for Good Governance.
00:20Why are we so passionate in this fight for good governance and our fight against corruption?
00:26First, I would like to formally announce and clarify that I'm not running for president.
00:37I'm not running for senator and I'm not also running for congressman.
00:43So, at least we can clarify so that there's no more intrigue.
00:51And the reason for that is because, first of all, we would like to leave a legacy for our young generation.
01:03Because 10 years from now, 20 years from now, if we're not going to address the pervasive corruption that is now happening in this country today,
01:15I don't want our children to be suffering and they will be blaming us and asking me,
01:23Mayor, you were in the position of influence 10 years ago and you did nothing about it.
01:33I don't want to be apologizing to them and experiencing regret by traditional and corrupt politicians.
01:41It is a very common word. Common word.
01:46But, unfortunately, it's still part of our own very justice.
01:52Napakalayo bako ng ating lalak pano.
01:56And that's the reason why I mentioned it as a preach coupon.
02:01But first, let me show you and share with you the words of Albert Einstein when he said,
02:07The world has become a dangerous place.
02:11Not because of evil people, but because good men do nothing about it.
02:18And I see a lot of good people here today.
