00:00House Speaker Martin Romualdez called for the full support of the Camera to irrigators and farmers in the country
00:07so that the agriculture sector can grow stronger.
00:11If the House Leader denies it, food security also means national security.
00:17So it should be put into practice.
00:19We have news from PTV's Melalese Moras.
00:24In response to President Ferdinand R. Marquez Jr.'s call for the agriculture sector to grow stronger in the Philippines,
00:33House Speaker Martin Romualdez called for the full support of the Camera to irrigators and farmers in the country.
00:41This was said by the House Leader in the 2025 Nationwide NIA-IA Congress in Laurel, Batangas
00:48led by the National Irrigation Administration or NIA Administrator Eduardo Guillen.
00:54In his response, Speaker Romualdez emphasized the importance of water in agriculture
01:00so he said that he will personally discuss the proposed law on this issue.
01:05You, the members of the Integrated Irrigators Association,
01:10are our allies in defending the food security of our country.
01:16And food security equals national security.
01:21That's why in Congress, we consider you as the frontliners of the food supply chain.
01:28Aside from the Presidential Presidency of the Prosecutors League of the Philippines in Pasay City,
01:33Speaker Romualdez also assured that the National Prosecution Service will continue to support and strengthen the Camera.
01:41This is so that it can strengthen the justice system in the country.
01:45I feel a kinship with all of you.
01:49I may not have chosen the courtroom's path that many of you walk every day,
01:56but I understand and deeply respect the discipline and sacrifice
02:03and the silent courage it takes to pursue justice case after case, day after day.
