00:00In relation to what you said, there was a comment that why EJK is the one that is being asked for the time, while we are being asked for the view.
00:11Right? I just want to say to that comment, yesterday, I think it was the other day, our church was given one million.
00:26Where? In Albay. In Camay, Lesotho. Is that my district? No. What else did I do?
00:36I exposed that to Secretary Gatchalian. I told him, can you send a food package to Albay and Camp Sur?
00:48He responded, he said, give me the contact person. I said, where is the contact person? He sent it to me.
00:54So, yesterday, he sent 616 food packages to Camp Sur. So, even though we are busy in the church, we are doing our responsibility to help our fellow countrymen.
01:09I am not the congressman of Bicol, but I am still helping. That's all I can say. I am still helping. It's up to you.
01:19But I know that you are a tentative. You are a tentative. You can do it.
01:24But you know what, we are not hearing it because we gave a chance in helping our fellow countrymen.
01:31Because if we hear it, we will be in trouble. That's why we decided that we will do it in November.
01:39The victims really need to be investigated. And we have the system to investigate that.
01:47And you have to consider that we are not, I mean our Watco, we can accommodate not so much.
01:56We can't investigate all of that. Even when we were discussing about the bypass operation, we can't investigate the whole Philippines.
02:04And that's the reason why there are courts that will cater all these problems. And there are raids, addicts.
02:12That's okay. And as a matter of fact, when there are sensationalized issues, we stop them. Why? Why?
02:20So that we can prevent those kinds of crimes from happening again and again.
02:24But if you investigate all of that, where will we end up? We can't handle it.
02:29And so I think that's the answer that I want to bring to our compatriots in the higher chamber.
02:39I just want to say to Tony Salconello, I'm not a lawyer but I know what I'm talking about.
02:46I don't know what he means by that. I do not know what I'm talking about.
02:54Yes. I think I'm old enough now that I know what I'm talking about.
03:00Well, I'm doing my share in delivering what I can do to the people of Laguna.
03:10And as a matter of fact, the typhoon just passed through here in Prescon and I'm going back again there to deliver.
03:18You know, Laguna now, the whole of Laguna, from San Pedro to Papilac, the tip of the Nalawigan Laguna,
03:27we are near the lake shore. And the majority of our people who live on the lake shore, they are still stranded.
03:35So they need assistance because they are not going to the evacuation center.
03:39We brought gifts and aid to the evacuation center.
03:44But there are those who are stranded, who will not go, who will not be brought.
03:47So later, when we go, I always bring them.
03:51I'm a mayor, I'm a mayor, I'm a congressman.
03:54When we go to Hondoy, I really bring food there to give to the people who are stranded and can't go to the evacuation center.
04:05Now, the question is, will this benefit me if we do this?
04:10Let the people decide.
04:11You know, everything that we do is a destiny because of what we have done right here.
04:20And the people will tell us that we don't need to vote because of what we have done in the former Prescon.
04:25And then the people, other people will tell us also because of what we have done in the province of Laguna.
04:31Then let the people decide.
04:34And for Poco, what's his name?
04:37President Chu.
04:39Okay, if he's from Laguna, he can go to me.
04:42He can talk to me so I can see what he has prepared.
