00:00If Vice President Sara Duterte is no longer interested in her job as Vice President,
00:06some lawmakers may ask her to step down from her position.
00:10Congressman Jill Bongalon said that in the middle of several times when Vice President Sara Duterte
00:16did not attend the budget hearing for the Office of the Vice President.
00:19Yesterday, the OVP budget should have been included in the plenary but VP Sara Duterte did not include it
00:25because she has already passed it to the lawmakers.
00:29According to the congressmen, this is the first time that the head of agency or authorized representative
00:35did not attend the budget deliberation.
00:37It is not enough for the OVP to send a letter because there should be an answer to the questions of the congressmen.
00:44Although the OVP sent a letter, they were not authorized to speak for the visa.
00:50For Congressman Raul Manuel and Ramon Gutierrez,
00:53betrayal of public trust is the reason why VP Sara did not attend the budget hearings.
00:59But Gutierrez said that this is not enough evidence for impeachment.
01:04The OVP will give another chance to VP Sara Duterte to face the deliberation tomorrow.
01:12Duterte has not yet made a statement regarding the possible request that she should resign
01:17and that she is no longer interested in her job.
