00:00A few days after the urgent certification, President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.,
00:04a five-month postponement of BARMM Parliamentary Elections was approved in the Senate.
00:11Several important bills were also approved.
00:13These are in the center of the news of Daniel Manalastas.
00:19Several important bills were approved in the Senate,
00:23such as the Barm Elections Proposal.
00:26Eighteen senators were in favor of the proposal,
00:28while one voted no and no one abstained.
00:32Under the approved version of the Senate,
00:34the elections will be held in Barm on October 13, 2025,
00:38instead of the original plan to hold the 2025 national and local elections at the same time.
00:44That's why I'm just agreeing now
00:47so that we can talk about the proposal
00:52that will give a plebiscite in Sulu
00:55so that they can be reunited in Barm.
00:58Give them a chance, one last chance,
01:01to make that self-determination if they really want to be reunited in Barm.
01:07The passage of this bill once again demonstrates
01:10the Senate's commitment to establishing a final and enduring peace in Mindanao.
01:14The bill passed by the Virology Institute of the Philippines Act.
01:19Nineteen senators voted in favor of the proposal
01:22by the Virology Institute of the Philippines
01:25that was noticed in its research and development.
01:28The bill also aims to address the possible diseases in the future.
01:33Meanwhile, the Magna Carta of Barangay Health Workers was also passed by the Senate.
01:38It hopes to strengthen the benefits and incentives for BHWs.
01:44From vaccines to a bad feeling,
01:48Barangay Health Workers or BHWs are the first to approach the people.
