00:01:30And joining us today is the President of the American Chamber, Visayas, Mr. Brian Connolly.
00:01:37And he will share his insights on building public and private partnerships, strengthening business resiliency, and advancing tourism to meet Cebu's emerging opportunities and challenges.
00:01:52Good morning.
00:01:53That was a lot of topics to cover, DJ.
00:01:57That was a lot of topics to cover.
00:01:59So where should we start?
00:02:01I think we'll start with the current state of both domestic and international tourism.
00:02:10So let's start with the good one, which is, how's our domestic tourism?
00:02:15Domestic tourism is strong.
00:02:17I mean, we've seen many more staycations that we hadn't seen before.
00:02:20We have adjusted our rate structure to make it more enticing for our fellow local Cebuanos to come and stay with us.
00:02:28You know, our hotel at Jay Park is a bit of aspirational.
00:02:32You know, people can't wait to come because of the water park.
00:02:35So for us, really to attract the local customers in Cebu in particular and out of Manila as well are very important.
00:02:41And if my numbers are correct, they are 82% of our tourism market.
00:02:50Now.
00:02:50Now.
00:02:51Is that good or bad?
00:02:53It's good and bad.
00:02:54I mean, the international tourism has dropped, in particular the Korean market.
00:02:59We've seen a very strong decrease in that.
00:03:02Domestic market is making some of that up.
00:03:05Not maybe as much as we would like it to make up.
00:03:07The rate's a little bit different.
00:03:09We have a more friendly rate for our locals.
00:03:13Whereas our international are more understanding of paying a higher rate because that's where they come from.
00:03:18So, yeah, I would say that it's getting better.
00:03:21Our mix is changing.
00:03:23We want to find new markets as well.
00:03:25The Japanese market is coming back to a certain degree.
00:03:28China is still a little bit dormant.
00:03:30But we are starting to look at Europe.
00:03:32We're starting to look at Hong Kong again.
00:03:34We're looking at Singapore.
00:03:34Australia now with this flight from Brisbane to Cebu direct is a great step in the right direction.
00:03:42That's a huge market that I've been wanting to bring here for a long time.
00:03:47So, that's good news.
00:03:48Yeah.
00:03:49You mentioned that there was a big drop for the Korean market.
00:03:53What triggers this drop?
00:03:55Is it seasonal?
00:03:56I think it's more than that.
00:03:59I mean, we've always had a seasonality to the Korean market in terms of peaks and valleys.
00:04:03I think in this case, it's the fact that we're not just competing with each other.
00:04:06We're also competing with national nations.
00:04:09Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, other countries of all sense, and even Thailand have seen, wow, the Korean market's very strong.
00:04:16They go together and they don't have a problem with certain rates.
00:04:20So, in this case, let's go after that Korean market and perhaps a bit of complacency on our part, a bit of comfort with the fact that they all love us and it's such an easy flight to Cebu in particular.
00:04:31Maybe we should have kept our eye on the ball a little bit more and that's now time for us to do.
00:04:36Yeah, the last time I was at the airport, the international airport, it's the early morning flight.
00:04:44There's really a lot of Koreans, but that was already a lot for me, but I don't know what was that before.
00:04:52So, how do you think Cebu will compete with other markets out there to capture, even within the Philippines?
00:05:02What are our offerings?
00:05:03Well, I think internationally, we certainly need to continue to develop our infrastructure.
00:05:07I think that's something that's been a challenge for us.
00:05:09I mean, we've got a great example with the airport.
00:05:12Everybody talks about our airport because it is good.
00:05:14It's a wonderful airport, world class.
00:05:17But from there, we need to continue to that growth in terms of the roads, the sewage, the trash.
00:05:22There's a lot of things that we can do better at making our appearance a bit more attractive.
00:05:27We are a resort.
00:05:28People are expecting to have a beautiful experience.
00:05:31Now, once you go past into the resort and you go out into the ocean, we have beautiful water.
00:05:36Within 10 minutes, you can be swimming in some of the most crystal clear water in the world.
00:05:41And so, we need to continue that on land as well.
00:05:44And so, I think infrastructure is important.
00:05:46Domestically, obviously, we have a lot of conversation about the flights, the cost of flights.
00:05:50Whereas people say, Brian, it was cheaper for me to fly to Phuket or to Bangkok than it was to fly to Cebu.
00:05:58And that's a bit disconcerting for us.
00:06:00We believe that the market in Manila is 20, 24 million people.
00:06:04We don't know an exact number.
00:06:05But it's a huge market.
00:06:07And many of the people that I've met there have never been to Cebu.
00:06:09Whoa.
00:06:11They'll be surprised.
00:06:12Yeah, I think so.
00:06:13They'll love it.
00:06:14In a good way.
00:06:15In a good way.
00:06:15In a good way.
00:06:16In a good way.
00:06:16In a good way.
00:06:16So, as of this time, if we are to compare the foreign visitors' arrival, if the numbers are correct,
00:06:23we are still 72% compared to pre-pandemic level.
00:06:27Are we expecting for this to recover anytime sooner, considering that our ASEAN neighbors have already bounced back and even stronger for some?
00:06:40Yeah, that's been a concern on our part.
00:06:41We're not back to even pre-pandemic levels.
00:06:45And I think we can be.
00:06:46It's just a matter of we need to focus back on it.
00:06:48I know that our DOT department is working as hard as they can within the constraints that they have,
00:06:53whether it be budgetary or manning or whatever, to get more tourists.
00:06:56And I know that the expo in Japan, in Osaka, was supposed to help be a generator of tourism.
00:07:03I'm hoping that will come through.
00:07:05I think we need to continue to focus on fishing where the fish are, which means we need to go in person.
00:07:11You've got to go there.
00:07:12You cannot just put a slogan out.
00:07:14You can't just put an ad out.
00:07:16You know, as a hotel, we promote ourselves in Korea considerably.
00:07:20At baseball stadiums, on TV shows, everywhere we can to promote Cebu, as well as ourselves.
00:07:27So, when you said we need infrastructure outside of the airport, outside of the airport, outside of the hotel, outside of the resort,
00:07:39are you talking about roads, are you talking about transportation, sewage, and trash?
00:07:47Yes, yes, yes, yes.
00:07:48So, we've been talking about this for the last month, DJs.
00:07:54And actually, what's interesting, because same observation when it comes to flooding, it has to be interconnected, entire Cebu.
00:08:03Same also with traffic.
00:08:06Interconnected.
00:08:07It appears also that there is a pattern that promotion of tourism is not just per LGU, but it's also integrated.
00:08:15It has to be a whole package.
00:08:17Yes.
00:08:18Because if I want to promote the slope, I have to pass through how many towns?
00:08:23Together.
00:08:24And if the traffic is bad.
00:08:25Which will showcase everything that's there.
00:08:28So, yeah, I think there's a need for one Cebu.
00:08:33No, it's nothing to do with politics.
00:08:35But it's really one Cebu.
00:08:38Integrated.
00:08:39And an integrated tourism promotion.
00:08:43Not just for, okay, visit Cebu City, we have all these heritage sites.
00:08:47But it's really thinking that if you stay three nights, four days in Cebu, this is what you can cover.
00:08:55Because it's always value for money.
00:08:58It's like, you know, when people go vacation and visit places, when they come back to their homes,
00:09:04they take a one-day vacation to rest from vacation.
00:09:07That's right.
00:09:08Because people want to cover as many places they can within the day that they're on the place.
00:09:13Because you don't know when you're coming back or if you're coming back, right?
00:09:17So, what's your take that if we're going to look at the numbers now, Cambodia is even generating more visitors now compared to the Philippines.
00:09:29So, personally, it looks like Vietnam all over again.
00:09:33So, what's driving that?
00:09:36Yes.
00:09:36Well, I think, you know, we humans are the same.
00:09:40We all like a variety.
00:09:41So, if we've been going to Cebu or to the Philippines for a long time, it's maybe time to look at other locations.
00:09:46So, people are looking at places.
00:09:48And it usually starts with the backpackers.
00:09:50They're the front liners who go to these places.
00:09:53Yes.
00:09:53They're the word of mouth.
00:09:54Absolutely.
00:09:55And they start to talk about it.
00:09:56And the drum beats get louder and louder.
00:09:58And then, suddenly, then we get what I call the rich backpackers.
00:10:01Then you get the singles and couples.
00:10:04And then you get the families.
00:10:05And it happens in every place.
00:10:07The question is, how do you reinvent yourself after you've reached that peak with the families?
00:10:12You can't.
00:10:13There's nobody else to go to.
00:10:14Me too.
00:10:14So, we need to be able to reinvent ourselves as it's being done in Bali and Phuket and other islands that are having the same challenge.
00:10:22Everybody's moving on to the next new island.
00:10:24So, how is Phuket, for example, managing that?
00:10:28Yeah, because Phuket has been there for a very long time.
00:10:32I've never been there.
00:10:33But it's like I've heard Phuket a lot of time.
00:10:36But it keeps on attracting tourists.
00:10:38Well, that would be the first thing I would recommend that our officials do is go visit your competitor.
00:10:43We do that in our business.
00:10:45We go to other restaurants and hotels to see how they're doing.
00:10:47Go see how Bali does it.
00:10:49Go see how Phuket does it.
00:10:51Phuket has always reinvented itself through a variety of different ways.
00:10:55Now, they're really focusing on real estate.
00:10:56You'll see there's a lot more branded residences being built.
00:11:00So, they're trying to build a base of people to live there, to continue.
00:11:04They also have a lot of things that we could easily copy.
00:11:07And I don't think there's any shame in looking at how other people are doing things and adapting it to the way we want to implement it.
00:11:14It doesn't have to be exactly the same.
00:11:16It has to be the Philippine way of taking what they do well and adapting it.
00:11:20And there's a lot of things that we could easily do and help.
00:11:23But, you know, it's true.
00:11:25Right now, what I see is we're doing things on an individual initiative.
00:11:31If we can, like, recently I've noticed there's a hill in Bohol that's been recently, Ilihan Hill.
00:11:38So, you know, these new sites, if we can put them all together into one brochure, and, you know, like, it's really more on value for money that if you come visit Cebu and see the rest of the Philippines.
00:11:55Like, something like that.
00:11:57I mean, no matter how bottomless your pocket is, you may have enough finances, but you don't have enough time.
00:12:06That's a good point.
00:12:08Let's look at Vietnam.
00:12:09I think right now they're offering, you can fly to Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, and you get free flights around the country.
00:12:16They're offering free flights.
00:12:18So who's absorbing the cost?
00:12:20Because the government is.
00:12:21Or they're asking the airline to say, build that into the package that some of your people may take a free flight and go to another city.
00:12:28So, again, we want to say, come to Cebu, make this your epicenter for your Philippine exploration.
00:12:33And from here, it's very easy because we're central in the whole country.
00:12:37North and south, east and west, we're in the middle.
00:12:39We're almost the middle of the middle.
00:12:41Perfect location to use it as your jumping off spot to see the country.
00:12:45Speaking of money, the numbers would also say that even if we have fewer international arrivals, but they are spending more compared to before.
00:12:59What are your thoughts about this?
00:13:02And what are also the factors that are contributing to these numbers?
00:13:09Well, I think, you know, the backpackers are moving on.
00:13:12So the people that didn't spend a lot are not here.
00:13:14So the people that are coming are spending like families.
00:13:18We have a lot of families.
00:13:19And I believe that the family market does spend more.
00:13:22Two to three kids.
00:13:23They want to go out and see things.
00:13:24They want to have meals.
00:13:25And you're talking about more people.
00:13:27So, yes, I think the average spend per visit group has increased.
00:13:32But we need to also have more arrivals to supplement the ones that have left us.
00:13:36Yeah, because I think with the pattern that you just shared a while ago that backpackers reach backpackers and then eventually the singles and the families.
00:13:44It appears like we are already in the family phase.
00:13:48How are we going to reinvent ourselves?
00:13:50For us to attract the backpackers again.
00:13:53And this time it's not just the families, but now we're bringing the extended, the whole gang.
00:13:58Yes, correct.
00:13:58The entire subdivision.
00:14:02Like, you know, groups.
00:14:06Correct.
00:14:06There's a lot of people who now travel in groups like as organizations, associations.
00:14:11I mean, they have the money.
00:14:13So, like because we have heritage, we have culture, we have the beaches.
00:14:19The food.
00:14:21Don't forget the food.
00:14:21Which among this should we prioritize in terms of how they appeal to international market?
00:14:31Well, I think the appeal now needs to be the what market are we going to attract?
00:14:35In my opinion, the market that we have the most potential for because of the infrastructure of the hotels we have.
00:14:41And now with the SM Seasides Arena and the one over at Macta Newtown is the mice market.
00:14:48Yes.
00:14:48Meaning incentive convention exhibition.
00:14:50We have the direct flights, we have the airport, we have the hotels, we have the meeting space.
00:14:56We have to start planning now.
00:14:57We should be on the road.
00:14:59No more talking about DNA and mission, vision statements.
00:15:02We need to be active.
00:15:03We should have talked about that yesterday.
00:15:05Yes.
00:15:05That's old news.
00:15:07You need to be on a plane to Vegas to all these trade shows because we have the facilities to handle large mice groups.
00:15:15And we're getting them.
00:15:16We just had a fairly large one.
00:15:17In inter-country, within the country, we have some very big groups coming down.
00:15:22Century Tuna.
00:15:24I don't have the slim body that the Century Tuna advertises yet.
00:15:28I keep eating their tuna.
00:15:30But, you know, they came down and they had 150 people.
00:15:33And so we need to explore all of our mice within the country and also within the region.
00:15:39And there's no reason why we can't.
00:15:40We had a French group in Phuket, 300 people for four nights.
00:15:45They want to come to our locations.
00:15:48They want to get out of their countries and see beautiful beaches and weather and waters and all that.
00:15:53So, okay, we have the facilities.
00:15:56We have what it takes to invite people.
00:15:59So what is missing?
00:16:01We've got to go there.
00:16:03We need to go out and take our hoteliers and go to these locations, set up a very large booth.
00:16:09Every country has a booth.
00:16:10Just like the one in Japan.
00:16:10So it's kind of a road show.
00:16:12It's a road show.
00:16:13We go to a convention center.
00:16:14It takes over the entire Vegas convention center.
00:16:17Everybody has a booth.
00:16:18Every country, including cities.
00:16:20London has one.
00:16:21Scotland has one.
00:16:22Cambodia.
00:16:23They're all there.
00:16:25And you get these visitors that come to your booth and they say, ah, we want to have a meeting.
00:16:29We'd like to find out what you have to offer in Cebu.
00:16:31So we'd say, okay, Jay Park has outdoor spaces, indoor spaces, restaurants, banquets, ballrooms.
00:16:38That, to me, is the next market for us to really explore.
00:16:41That is, I think, a sweet spot that we have that not many others are ready for yet.
00:16:47But this initiative should be done integrated as well.
00:16:52Yes.
00:16:52Not just for a resort initiative.
00:16:55No, we should go as a good.
00:16:56It's both private and public collaboration.
00:16:59If you know HRAC, the Hotel, Resort, and Restaurant Association of Cebu, recently went to Taipei.
00:17:04They took, I think, 42 or 45 hotels there to do a sales trip.
00:17:08And that's what we have to do.
00:17:09We've got to go.
00:17:10We have to fish where the fish are.
00:17:11We've got to go where the customers are.
00:17:14But I read somewhere that the budget of the OT was even cut.
00:17:20That's concerning because, you know, what I always feel is that we're not taking very seriously as an industry.
00:17:29BPO's and mining and this and that.
00:17:31But tourism tends to not take a front seat.
00:17:34We need to have the right people running and leading the department and making sure they have the right budget.
00:17:38So, speaking of BPO or the ITBPM, there is a multiplier that we associate for every headcount that's employed.
00:17:51So, that's for every one ITBPM person employed, it translates to 2.9 indirect employment.
00:18:00How is this number or how does this look like in the tourism industry?
00:18:04Tourism, we normally use a multiplier effect based on the number of rooms you built.
00:18:08And based on the number of rooms, we affect people, five people per room.
00:18:14So, whether that's a direct hire, an agency hire, a supplier, a provider, whatever it is, we can touch five people with every hotel room that we have.
00:18:24So, that's a pretty good multiplier.
00:18:26And we're 24-7, 365.
00:18:29We're busy all the time.
00:18:30And a lot of the owners are Filipino, so the money stays in the Philippines.
00:18:35That's correct, that's right.
00:18:37We are locally owned.
00:18:38We are a local brand and locally owned.
00:18:42And I know that many of our, even the new international brands that are coming to Cebu and to the Philippines are locally owned.
00:18:48That's really important, so the money stays in the country.
00:18:51Yes.
00:18:52So, the challenge, okay.
00:18:55Seek.
00:18:55The right people and the right budget.
00:18:58Do we have the right people, do you think?
00:19:00I think, you know, the people that I've met in DOT are very committed and they want to do the right thing.
00:19:05But if they don't have the tools that they need to be able to do the right thing, then I can't really hold them to account.
00:19:11And that's only fair.
00:19:13Charity begins at home.
00:19:14And speaking of home, how competitive Cebu is right now as a destination in the Philippines compared to, let's say, Bohol and Siargao?
00:19:26Well, to be honest, I mean, Bohol can be a bit expensive in terms of the food because the cost of food flies from Manila to Cebu, Cebu to Bohol.
00:19:35So, we find that many of our ingredients there are more expensive.
00:19:38But because of the nature of the island and the whole is so comfortable and Panglao with the wide roads.
00:19:44It's so cozy, so homey, so relaxing, you know.
00:19:48It's like the beach vibe.
00:19:50We have our new property there right on Alona Beach.
00:19:53And you sit in your room and you step outside and there's the water 25 feet away.
00:19:57It's lovely.
00:19:58You can hear the splashing of the water at night.
00:20:00And so it's a very different feel than what we have here.
00:20:03And that's what's making it attractive.
00:20:04And I think it's a, you know, for the local government of Bohol and Cebu, it's really a good, this is a perfect time to collaborate.
00:20:12Yes, I agree.
00:20:13So that you keep visitors in the region.
00:20:18Yes.
00:20:19That just by visiting Cebu, you have so many things to discover and so many things to do.
00:20:26And in our conversation earlier, I was even surprised that there's already a fast craft that travel from Cebu, Bohol to Sargao and back.
00:20:38Oh, that's new.
00:20:39Yes.
00:20:39I was surprised when I found out about it.
00:20:42Yes, because what I've heard, there's Cebu, I'm not sure if it's Bohol or Domaguete, to Siquijor.
00:20:50Dipolog.
00:20:51Ah, Dipolog.
00:20:51Okay.
00:20:52So, you know, yeah, it's true.
00:20:55We're at the center.
00:20:56We either get connected via air or by sea.
00:21:00So very strategic.
00:21:02I just have to ask this because if we look at Bohol and Ceargao, it looks like the arrival is increasing.
00:21:12While for Cebu, it's unfortunately declining.
00:21:16So how can we get back to where we were before?
00:21:21Okay.
00:21:22I would like to follow the pattern mentioned by Brian.
00:21:25Okay.
00:21:25I think, I would like to believe that Chagao now is on the backpackers.
00:21:31And the rich and the young.
00:21:33The little richer backpackers are going.
00:21:35So that's why there's still so much noise and more people are coming there.
00:21:38Yeah, without a doubt.
00:21:40It's very exciting.
00:21:40So how can we reinvent ourselves?
00:21:45Well, can I also mention another thing that's important is safety and security.
00:21:49Recently, we've had a couple of incidences with tourists from Korea and Japan.
00:21:54Oh.
00:21:54And there's been some bad news.
00:21:57And I think that is something that's...
00:21:58That's in Cebu?
00:21:59No.
00:21:59That's the problem is that people don't realize that it's happening in Manila.
00:22:03And they think the whole Philippines is unsafe, which is very dangerous for us.
00:22:10So they don't know that it's in a city where we don't know why they were there or why they
00:22:16were shot.
00:22:16But the fact is, we had nothing to do with that.
00:22:20In Cebu, we're safe.
00:22:22We are...
00:22:22I walk around personally.
00:22:23I live here.
00:22:24I walk around.
00:22:25I walk my dog.
00:22:26I take my daughter to school.
00:22:28I feel very safe.
00:22:29Sometimes more safe here than I do back in the States.
00:22:30So I think that's something that we have to address as a nation.
00:22:34Yes.
00:22:35I think the reporting as well, that if a person is being shot somewhere in the distant province
00:22:44in Luzon, it has to be stated that it's how many kilometers away from the city or from
00:22:52Cebu so that people will have an idea, oh, this is how far and this is how secluded the
00:22:57place is.
00:22:58Yeah.
00:22:58Situate things.
00:22:59Yes, I think that's a better reporting.
00:23:02Yeah, it's true.
00:23:04Okay.
00:23:04Cebu was recently nominated as the most desirable region in the world by the, I think, 24th Wanderlust
00:23:12Reader Travel Awards.
00:23:15Does this resonate with your perception of Cebu's appeal as a travel destination?
00:23:20I think Cebu has the ocean.
00:23:22We have the mountains.
00:23:23We have culture.
00:23:24We have religion.
00:23:25We have history.
00:23:26We have great food.
00:23:28I think there's so much going for us.
00:23:29We just need to package all that together, not by LGU, not by put it all together and
00:23:35say, look what you can do on this island.
00:23:37What we have to offer is incredible.
00:23:39And I think if we were to really package it well, I think we could do almost like Bali
00:23:44does and Phuket.
00:23:46They package themselves almost a bit separately from the nation.
00:23:50They try to create their own identity.
00:23:52It's an initiative by the private sector or both collaboration of the public and the private
00:23:59sector?
00:24:00A lot of that is from the private sector, from Cebu Chamber of Commerce and I think it's industry.
00:24:07They're doing stuff.
00:24:08A lot of the private organizations are actively doing things.
00:24:11It's just we need to make sure we coordinate them all together.
00:24:13Yeah, so I think if the private sector is doing that, it's faster than wait for the government
00:24:22to, you know, call everybody.
00:24:25And by the time they call everybody, we'll start talking about the DNA again.
00:24:29I've heard also about visa challenges.
00:24:38How is that?
00:24:39What's the status of that challenge right now?
00:24:44I think China.
00:24:45I think when our interview with Mr. Neri of MCIA said that's one of the challenge.
00:24:52Why we have so many flights from China, but now it's just like Guangzhou is the one.
00:24:59Only one.
00:24:59Just one traffic, so.
00:25:01Yeah, I mean, if you imagine that the Chinese, they have 1.5 billion people, you know, and
00:25:06they, so if 100 million people travel a year, if we could just get a few million, we'd be
00:25:11happy.
00:25:11But I think there's a political issue.
00:25:13Yes.
00:25:13And I respect that.
00:25:14It's not my business.
00:25:15But I also think that the ties are very quick to have visa-free.
00:25:21They started, they were allowed to sell marijuana.
00:25:23If they constantly reinvent themselves, they lower the taxes on alcohol so alcohol was cheaper.
00:25:28They're very creative, and they don't waste any time.
00:25:31And you know what?
00:25:31If they make a mistake, the ties say, oops, we didn't do it right.
00:25:34Let's do it again a different way.
00:25:36So we need to be more aggressive in terms of being creative in terms of creating new
00:25:41things for people to do.
00:25:42And fast turn around when things get wrong.
00:25:44Yes.
00:25:44Right.
00:25:45Yes.
00:25:45And they will.
00:25:47We're not always going to be perfect, but we need to say, okay, that didn't work.
00:25:50Let's turn it around.
00:25:51Yeah.
00:25:51Better do something than do nothing at all.
00:25:54Yeah.
00:25:54Because I've also heard in the past that the Chinese tourists, they also spend more.
00:26:02So it looks like it's a loss.
00:26:04Yes.
00:26:05Not having them.
00:26:06No.
00:26:06Unfortunately.
00:26:07But it's a very tricky times.
00:26:10I know.
00:26:10Yes.
00:26:10Yes.
00:26:10Very tricky times.
00:26:12And we respect that.
00:26:13Yes.
00:26:14For now, while waiting for things to settle, let's develop new markets.
00:26:20Absolutely.
00:26:20I think that's the best way.
00:26:22And there's lots of new markets.
00:26:23Yeah.
00:26:24I think we will not be short with how many countries around the world.
00:26:27Oh, gosh.
00:26:28Just like of that population, how many have just visited Cebu?
00:26:32So visa in general, then, the issue is just limited to Chinese visitors.
00:26:40But other than that, there is…
00:26:41We're pretty good.
00:26:42I mean, we just thought the Indians are visa upon arrival.
00:26:45We should do more of that for nations.
00:26:46Oh, yeah.
00:26:47I've heard about that.
00:26:48Yeah.
00:26:48So that's very good.
00:26:49That was great news.
00:26:50And we have good relationships already with them.
00:26:52Yes.
00:26:52And in the flights.
00:26:54We are an island.
00:26:55If we don't have flights, we don't have people.
00:26:57And this new flight coming from Australia, I know that MCIA helped very much with that.
00:27:03And I'm very happy.
00:27:04They're very aggressive.
00:27:05And now that Aboidus is involved, it's even more aggressive.
00:27:08So we need more help from them to open up to…
00:27:11And make sure that the landing fees are competitive with other countries because that's an expense
00:27:16that airlines look at before they make a decision to fly here.
00:27:20That's true.
00:27:21The visa free is very interesting.
00:27:22Like, I know there are some countries that offer visa free if you stay for five days.
00:27:29If you can be more creative in our visas, I think the money, I think that, I mean, the revenue you can generate from the visa will be,
00:27:38if we're going to just waive that a little, it can be more if we have, for the rest of the tourism industry.
00:27:47And it makes traveling to the Philippines a lot easier.
00:27:50Yes.
00:27:51Like, especially right now when everybody would just have to swipe their passports and you're free to go.
00:27:57It's getting so quick.
00:27:58Wow.
00:27:58Yes.
00:27:59So if you're so into the…
00:28:02It's like, oh, upgrade, upgrade, man.
00:28:08Yeah.
00:28:08Everybody wants easy travel nowadays.
00:28:11Easy travel, yes.
00:28:12Every minute counts because it's very difficult to take a leap of absence in the office.
00:28:17So might as well, you have to make sure that every minute counts.
00:28:22Well, that's why they don't want to go, they want to go direct.
00:28:24Yes.
00:28:24They don't want to change planes.
00:28:25Yes.
00:28:25Because we all know that that adds to the trip.
00:28:28Yes, that cuts your time.
00:28:29That cuts your time.
00:28:30Correct.
00:28:31Much more if you get delayed.
00:28:33Yes, right.
00:28:33That's right.
00:28:34So, you know, I think that having those direct flights is really…
00:28:38I think it's 13 cities in Europe fly directly to Phuket.
00:28:4313 cities.
00:28:44If we can only get half of that.
00:28:46Yep.
00:28:47Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki, London, all fly direct.
00:28:52And to think we have capacity based on our interview.
00:28:56Interview.
00:28:56Yes, our airport actually still has plenty of room.
00:29:00Yes.
00:29:03We just need more room when they go out of the airport.
00:29:06That's right.
00:29:07Smoother road.
00:29:07Because the air traffic maybe is that we have the capacity, but when they go out, they're still in the…
00:29:16They're stuck in traffic.
00:29:17So, I think that it's true, we really need to address that because they may direct flight may cut the trip short, but on the road going to other places is eating up their time.
00:29:31It will take a day.
00:29:33They go to Oslo, they leave at 3 o'clock in the morning.
00:29:36They get in the van with a pillow.
00:29:38Yes, sleep.
00:29:40It's true.
00:29:41So, with that, we hope that, you know, things get better.
00:29:49We hope so too.
00:29:49We're here to help.
00:29:50And, you know, we get to see more collaborations.
00:29:55So, because with tourism going increasing, that means it's also local jobs for the local people.
00:30:05And it's really an industry that's also crucial for our economy to continue to grow.
00:30:15Absolutely.
00:30:16And I think we're about 9% or 10% of the GDP.
00:30:19It used to be 14%.
00:30:20And in Thailand, it's probably closer to 30%.
00:30:23And it's a clean industry.
00:30:25They come in, they spend their money, and they leave.
00:30:28So, yes, there are challenges, but we'd rather look at it more as opportunities.
00:30:32This is okay.
00:30:33No worry.
00:30:34Brian is there.
00:30:35Brian is there.
00:30:37He'll take care of that.
00:30:39No problem.
00:30:39We're on it.
00:30:41Okay.
00:30:42So, you know, if there will also be collaborations needed where we can be of help, then Sansar is open for that matter.
00:30:52Thank you very much.
00:30:53We appreciate that.
00:30:53We appreciate the support.
00:30:55Okay.
00:30:55So, thank you very much, Brian.
00:30:57It's nice talking with you, and hope we can have another chat with more good news this time.
00:31:04I hope so, next time.
00:31:04Okay.
00:31:05Thanks a lot.
00:31:06Thank you for joining us.
00:31:07Thank you for joining us.
00:31:08Okay.
00:31:08When we come back, we'll talk about the problems caused by Azela, where we receive masdaghan patang mga reklamong nagdawat.
00:31:17So, ito niyong i-discuss, hinigbalik na ito mga igala.
00:35:19So,
00:35:49Reneva.
00:36:19So,
00:36:49So,
00:37:19He is Lloyd Perez Adlawan.
00:37:23And since I met him in 2023, so familiar ko sa iyong tingog, but I wanted to be sure kung siya ba niya siya, nakutaan ako kung di niya nakuha akong numero.
00:37:34So, because I have also left a number.
00:37:36So, I have also left a number, so multiple times that I have gone to their office and requested an audience with him, even after the cancellation that we have submitted already.
00:37:48He allegedly said,
00:38:18So,
00:38:48So,
00:38:50So,
00:38:51So,
00:38:53So,
00:38:55So,
00:38:57So,
00:38:58So,
00:38:59So,
00:39:00So,
00:39:01So,

00:39:14So,
00:39:15So,
00:39:16So,
00:39:17So,

00:39:44and the same script that all other people have heard
00:39:48all other victims have heard from him for those who have spoken with him
00:39:54on a person on a face-to-face uh level um and mom we are trying to
00:40:05uh we are trying to tell him uh reach out to some star talk to them

00:40:16others um if you want to settle this settle
00:40:18this publicly and share your side you can clear your name
00:40:22and we would also like to remind the viewers know that sunstar has been
00:40:29reaching out no engineer lloyd adlawan
00:40:32to hear his side
00:40:34but to no avail to no avail
00:40:45so i think see we also tried to message sa ilahang facebook page labi na kay ma'am ma'am
00:40:52and that's why they are so important
00:41:04um another thing that's interesting
00:41:06ma'am when i told him that you know to talk to sunstar and the like
00:41:09and then he said i will be able to do it ma'am
00:41:11um
00:41:20we know that this is a corporation we have done
00:41:22our due diligence sa inyong corporation and it's not just you
00:41:26it's a lloyd perez atlawan and the corporation and your board of directors and the like let them
00:41:34face us in a public setting
00:41:37uh
00:41:40because we deserve that and the world deserve that
00:41:43deserve that especially that there are so many others that have come out and have joined this court
00:41:49for justice
00:41:50yes
00:41:54we've been really receiving kanang messages from sa among facebook page sa among whatsapp
00:42:00kanang how how
00:42:04how usama nila pag-reach para mas mudako ang inyong group nga
00:42:07nga maka kanang ano gin mong action call

00:42:17uh-huh so bro pas gatos mamapit ng uya
00:42:22so karoon mo na do you have a more
00:42:25kanang unified na gud nga
00:42:28yeah we we would like to since this is
00:42:34most of the victims are from cebu province we would like to make a call
00:42:39and we would like to to uh because sir it looks like it looks like from the sound of uh it
00:42:46it looks like we have an earth something that that is deeper than what what means the eye
00:42:54we have there have been some uh people in politics nga nakitan with this uh person and
00:43:02related to uh azela properties and lloyd adlawan himself so it seems like we have an earth something
00:43:09that is so much deeper and this needs uh to be investigated we have submitted our uh complaints
00:43:20to nbi uh i think this is something that we need to prioritize i think this is also something that we
00:43:26would like to call on our local leaders uh both in in the local uh the the province north office of the
00:43:33governor our people's governor we have submitted a letter uh to the office of the governor which the
00:43:40plo um has right now and we are waiting on an audience with um hopefully with our uh governor we've also
00:43:50reached out to our local leaders in the city for the cebu residents um we have also reached out and
00:43:58at our and and if i may name no our mayor is willing to support us uh with this so nag wonder
00:44:08the people have been called out but there hasn't been any response so far so this is something that
00:44:25needs to be dug deeper and investigated and we're looking at our local and national loan uh lawmakers
00:44:33to look into this because there is something underneath this that needs to be unearthed or uncovered
00:44:40so kana mama uh manning kamot said me nga kanang maamong ma-interview si senator lito lapid siya

00:51:12be more aware
00:51:13about this issue
00:51:14so that di na sila
00:51:15mabiktima na saan.
00:51:16So, at least,
00:51:17mo backtrack na lang.
00:51:19Hopefully,
00:51:19wala na'y bago
00:51:20ang mabiktima paani.

00:51:34ang kanang,
00:51:35kanang,
00:51:36ang kung,

00:51:49ilang gibungkag,
00:51:49duhan na,
00:51:50muna lang,

00:51:56ang karing usah,
00:51:57add to kamu,

00:51:59So,
00:52:01naaday separate nga,
00:52:02mag,
00:52:02even that part,
00:52:04nili,
00:52:04klaro sa mga tao.
00:52:06So,
00:52:06asa ka mo add to.
00:52:08Pariyugya po na,
00:52:08asa ka ng mga kondo owners bitaw,
00:52:10na pre-selling na no.
00:52:12So,
00:52:12ano na,
00:52:13after so many long,
00:52:15mong good,
00:52:16napurna na ng building,
00:52:17pero,
00:52:18wala ba,
00:52:18nilaps na bitaw
00:52:19ang time nga dapat
00:52:20i-turn over in Anna?
00:52:22So,
00:52:22even kanisiyan,
00:52:23nani siya yung mga
00:52:24corresponding penalties
00:52:25sa developer.
00:52:27Supposedly.
00:52:28Pero,
00:52:28nga nung wala mani,
00:52:29di ba?
00:52:30Nga nung wala mani,
00:52:31pagpagpamaligya ba nila,
00:52:34ado na ba sila,
00:52:34usap ba yun,
00:52:35ang mga requirements ko,
00:52:36kinahangla na kay
00:52:38proof of ownership
00:52:39or authority
00:52:39to sell the property,
00:52:41na kay development plans,
00:52:43kung subdivision
00:52:44or condominium,
00:52:45engineering,
00:52:46financial
00:52:47and marketing documents,
00:52:49morag na aras,
00:52:49siguro yun sila
00:52:50yung marketing documents
00:52:51na ASP-IPB.
00:52:54Kahit pas-pas man sila
00:52:56dito sa Facebook.
00:52:57But,
00:52:58kanilang siya
00:52:59ang,
00:52:59ang,
00:53:00ang,
00:53:00And I would go for
00:53:01katong sa
00:53:02desudmento
00:53:03ang monitoring,
00:53:04no?
00:53:05So,
00:53:05their part
00:53:06is crucial
00:53:08because nabantayan
00:53:09na onta ni siya
00:53:10nga wala
00:53:11yun yung nahitabo
00:53:12sa property development
00:53:13based on the dates
00:53:15that they committed.
00:53:16Nga nung nagpadayon pa siya.
00:53:18Padayon siya.
00:53:19Yan,
00:53:19yan ay,
00:53:20So,
00:53:21and I think that's a good point
00:53:22because if you look at it,
00:53:23wag gaya nila na deliver pa
00:53:24ang katong deliverable
00:53:26na maligya pagig sila.
00:53:27So,
00:53:28we're not even sure nga
00:53:29ang katong nahali,
00:53:30katong gibayra nagsugod,
00:53:33may,
00:53:33wala nga,
00:53:34this is,
00:53:35ato lang nang panansya,
00:53:36could be the same property nga,
00:53:38ana,
00:53:38bitaw ka nang recycle ba nga,
00:53:40okay,

00:53:41i-refund ta ka nga,
00:53:42ako sa nga baligya,
00:53:43gala ka nga,
00:53:43ano ba?
00:53:44Okay,
00:53:44the common sense
00:53:45on ta nga attack,
00:53:47ana,
00:53:47is,
00:53:48i-deliver sa tong mga deliverables
00:53:50before ta magbaligya
00:53:53o bago.
00:53:54Pero the sad part is,
00:53:55nagsigig baligya,
00:53:56pero wala'y gideliver.
00:53:57Sige pre-sell,
00:53:58sige pre-sell.
00:53:59So,
00:54:00wala pa'y,
00:54:01kuhanin,
00:54:01wala'y nabuhat,
00:54:02wala'y na turn over.

00:54:15kapak-hapak,
00:54:16kapak-hapak ba.
00:54:17And for this one,
00:54:17what's even worse is
00:54:18because nothing is happening here.
00:54:19Yes.
00:54:20Okay raong tao gino,
00:54:22nag-pre-selling ko do'y niya,

00:55:08So,

00:55:10you really need

00:55:12Ania.
00:55:13Kay,
00:55:13puro manog ka nang,
00:55:15di li man siya excuse,

00:55:22we are talking of
00:55:24kinabuhi sa mga tao,
00:55:25kanang yun,
00:55:26ang sakit yun kayo
00:55:27ng kanang hard-earned money.

00:55:36malusot nga na kay,
00:55:37siya man ang masumbatan sa iyang,
00:55:39ang relationship niya
00:55:41sa iyang sister,
00:55:42kanang murag,
00:55:42gamayang bikil bitaw,
00:55:44kung mag-awais,
00:55:44kung nasa gamayang bikil,
00:55:46ikaw man good,

00:55:48kanang feeling bitaw,
00:55:49DJ nga,
00:55:50inaana ka.
00:55:50Feeling responsible.
00:55:52Yes,
00:55:52hindi ka responsible
00:55:54anak nga problem.
00:55:56Supposedly.
00:55:57I think si Ma'am Beth,
00:55:59ni Paibosa na to,
00:56:00nga gitawgan,
00:56:01san siya,
00:56:01of a number
00:56:03who introduced
00:56:03himself
00:56:05as ka nang engineer
00:56:06at lawan.
00:56:07Actually,
00:56:07it might be good
00:56:08to compare the numbers
00:56:10of the two,
00:56:11kay nanawag man ta
00:56:12sa upat ka numbers.
00:56:13But hinumdumi,
00:56:14karun,
00:56:15they can use multiple lines.
00:56:17Oh, pero,
00:56:18register na ba ya?
00:56:20So, kung nanawag ka,
00:56:22nakaregister,
00:56:23gig ka,
00:56:23imong sim.
00:56:25But I think that's quite.
00:56:26There's a work around?
00:56:28Hindi,
00:56:28ang akaw na ko is,
00:56:29I think,
00:56:29morag malink na to.
00:56:31Sige,
00:56:32itong tanawan,
00:56:33kung the number
00:56:34that they call.
00:56:35Si Ma'am Beth
00:56:36o si Ma'am Annie,
00:56:38itong katong mga numbers
00:56:39ka nanawag ato,
00:56:40itong ihapag to din na mo,
00:56:41ipasa to din na mo,
00:56:42kaya tabangan na itong tawag
00:56:43o verify
00:56:44o mo bagid ni.
00:56:46Atong giling.
00:56:47And I think what would
00:56:48establish it a little bit more
00:56:49is if we call those numbers
00:56:51and di li mo respond.
00:56:53So, morag it's weird nga
00:56:54that same number
00:56:55is calling them.
00:56:56Nanawag,
00:56:56but di,
00:56:56tawagan,
00:56:57di mo tubag.
00:56:58Okay.
00:56:58Then that's another
00:56:59point.
00:56:59And di mo good mo friends,
00:57:00mo nang di katubag go.
00:57:03Hindi ka friends,
00:57:04mo nang di katubag go.
00:57:04So,
00:57:05mo ni ang problema
00:57:06sa kaning
00:57:07Azela Properties
00:57:09di Yasming Lanilia nga,
00:57:10ubay-ubay na in town
00:57:11ang mga nigawas.
00:57:13Pagkadungog nila

00:57:17ka nang
00:57:17dagan dito sa
00:57:18comment section,
00:57:19maka feel good in town ka
00:57:20sa kanabang

00:57:28wakaya kibawa,
00:57:28unsang magid
00:57:29ang padulungan niya.
00:57:31Ikaw,

00:57:33o undam
00:57:34sa imong bayad,
00:57:35kaya ma-default

00:57:39Sige,
00:57:40gsod,
00:57:40sige,
00:57:41gsod.
00:57:41And for those
00:57:43who are yet
00:57:43to come forward ba,
00:57:45kaya it's best
00:57:46that you also join
00:57:47this group.
00:57:49Kaya makita man na to
00:57:50karun nga,
00:57:50the more people
00:57:51are also discussing this,
00:57:53they are going through
00:57:54exactly the same thing.
00:57:57I think,
00:57:58makapaluag
00:58:00bitaw na sa atong dughan nga,
00:58:01kanang shared mo
00:58:03ang inyong giagian.
00:58:04You're not alone.

00:58:05you're not alone.
00:58:06Sagtunggi nga ni Ma'am Annie,
00:58:08in numbers,
00:58:09there is strength.
00:58:10So, mas dakuin yung tingog,
00:58:11mas madunggan mo.
00:58:14I think,
00:58:15ang among microphone
00:58:16ni DJ,
00:58:18di pa enough,
00:58:18kinahanglan na yun tayo,
00:58:20trumpa.
00:58:20Ang inyong gidaganon
00:58:22will now be
00:58:22kanang trumpa
00:58:24para madunggan
00:58:24sa mga hintungdan
00:58:26ng mga ahinsya
00:58:27o mga opisina
00:58:28sa gobyerno.
00:58:29Especially for the
00:58:30local government
00:58:30of Minglanilia,
00:58:31we hope nga
00:58:32si Mayor Rajiv
00:58:35kanang find time
00:58:36to check aning,
00:58:38I know di siya
00:58:39private manguni,
00:58:41wak siya ilabot
00:58:42but
00:58:42hindi nga mangun
00:58:44sa iyahang lungsod.
00:58:46So, I don't know,

01:00:55Correct.
01:00:56Iyah man tong desisyon,
01:00:57nga,
01:00:57itang-tang siya,
01:00:58so,
01:00:58dako,
01:00:59ang value,
01:01:00ang gibugaton sa rason
01:01:02nga nung irilibo siya,
01:01:03which is,
01:01:04ang nasight na to earlier,
01:01:05is,
01:01:06atong nakita,
01:01:06itong sa switching,
01:01:07katong sa reshuffling,
01:01:09the revamp,
01:01:10sa within,

01:01:22DILG, yeah.
01:01:22Now,
01:01:23kung dako kayo na siya,
01:01:25kaya mukos siya siguro,
01:01:26o kanang kagubot,
01:01:28within the organization,
01:01:29which is really very difficult
01:01:30kung ang organization na mismo
01:01:32ang gubot,
01:01:33so,
01:01:33kinsa na may magman
01:01:34sa itong peace and order.
01:01:37But,
01:01:39mas taghan mang pangutan
01:01:40ng nigawas.
01:01:41Number one,
01:01:42kung dako gito nga sa iyo,
01:01:44why wala'y kasong gifayl?
01:01:48Inaanat siya ka,
01:01:49inaanat siya ka valuable,
01:01:51but yet,
01:01:52dako kayo iyang nakumit nga sa iyo.
01:01:54And so is also the silence
01:01:56about the exact
01:01:59circumstance
01:02:00that brought
01:02:01to that decision.
01:02:03Ngaanong dili man
01:02:04transparent
01:02:04o isulting yun
01:02:05sa ang reason.
01:02:06Para nako,
01:02:07unfair to,
01:02:08actually,
01:02:09unfair to Tore.
01:02:10And then,
01:02:11you left the people hanging nga.
01:02:14Ang sumagid,
01:02:14ang sumagid,
01:02:14ang sumagid,
01:02:14ang ibuhat niya,
01:02:15tungod kayo naging boxing siya,
01:02:16pero,
01:02:17personally,
01:02:18katong iyahang pag-accept,
01:02:20openly boxing,
01:02:21na siya,
01:02:22drama din to.
01:02:23For me,
01:02:23that's also conduct
01:02:24and becoming of a
01:02:25police officer.
01:02:26Diba ka nang,
01:02:27And ang nalibugan saan ako,
01:02:29if I remember it correctly,
01:02:30itong statement nga,
01:02:31there was no violation,
01:02:33there's nothing illegal.
01:02:35No charges?
01:02:36Oo.
01:02:37Administrative,
01:02:37but very urgent
01:02:39ang pag-relieve.
01:02:40And then,
01:02:40it was tough
01:02:41and necessary.
01:02:42Oo.
01:02:43So,
01:02:43murag contradicting
01:02:45ang duha.
01:02:46Oo.
01:02:46So,
01:02:47kung if there was nothing illegal,
01:02:48and if there was no violation,
01:02:50why is it tough?
01:02:51No charges.
01:02:51And why is it tough and necessary?
01:02:53and urgent.
01:02:54Correct.
01:02:55Diba?
01:02:55Murabag ka na,
01:02:55kung kinahanglanggin mo siya tangtangon,
01:02:57kay mukos niya,
01:02:58siya mas bigger problem.
01:02:59So,
01:03:00di,
01:03:00di,
01:03:01ang timbangan,
01:03:02wak,

01:03:04di,
01:03:04di,
01:03:04di,
01:03:04di,
01:03:04di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:05di,
01:03:06di,
01:03:06di,
01:03:06di,
01:03:06di,
01:03:07di,
01:03:07di,
01:03:07di,
01:03:07di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:08di,
01:03:10di,
01:03:10the other thing po that I've also read yesterday was wala siya and he accepted the order, pero si Secretary Rimulia could not even reach him on his phone. He just accepted it. No? Pero,
01:03:28but based on Secretary Rimulia's statement, he could not also reach him. No? In terms of,
01:03:40kind of talking about it, ba?
01:03:42Kinsa man suga ganaan mo,
01:03:43kikstory,
01:03:44effective immediately.
01:03:45Na-toe ka pagkagabi,
01:03:47ka-ugma,
01:03:47ina-ana na lang imong.
01:03:49And then, katupong kagahapon,
01:03:50di ba,
01:03:50they said nga,
01:03:51they're looking at the possibility for him to be appointed.
01:03:55Appointed.
01:03:56Pero,
01:03:57unsa man siya,
01:03:58i-appoint siya while active service siya.
01:04:00Kay,
01:04:01na-arabasa na,
01:04:03nga,
01:04:04for,
01:04:05for,
01:04:06for nartates,
01:04:07nga mahimo siya,
01:04:08I think,
01:04:09nga full-fledged,
01:04:10na PNP chief,
01:04:11kinanglan siya,
01:04:11i-promote.
01:04:12Kay,
01:04:13si,
01:04:13si,
01:04:14si,
01:04:15kuwan,
01:04:16si Torre,
01:04:17four-star man.
01:04:18And,
01:04:19and per policy,
01:04:20there should only be one four-star
01:04:23police general.
01:04:25Kay,
01:04:25siya man ang high-ranking,
01:04:27kuwan.
01:04:27So,
01:04:27unsa man na,
01:04:28na-apa man siya.
01:04:29And then,
01:04:31going back to,
01:04:32they're looking at moving him,
01:04:36pero in today's statement,
01:04:38Torre also said that he will be taking a leave of absence,
01:04:42as he needed some time off.
01:04:44So,
01:04:44an appointment?
01:04:46Or,
01:04:46time off?
01:04:47Hindi,
01:04:47muresa ko kay,

01:06:35money ii mong net income,
01:06:35ang kananglan transparent,
01:06:37ipagawas,
01:06:37gidna,
01:06:38namanta na sa statement of assets
01:06:40and liability,
01:06:40sa una,
01:06:41sa yun ra kayo nakuha on DJ,
01:06:42karun,
01:06:43di nakakakuha DJ,
01:06:44o,
01:06:44eh,
01:06:45part of transparency,
01:06:48man,
01:06:48anong dili man na ito ipakita
01:06:49kay Mahad Lok,
01:06:50na ay koan nga,
01:06:51magamit para sa,
01:06:54kanang politika,
01:06:56or what,
01:06:57but if you're not hiding anything
01:06:59sa ii mong income,
01:06:59what's there to be afraid of?
01:07:01And,
01:07:02this is just,
01:07:03for me lang,
01:07:03okay,
01:07:04I'm not an expert,
01:07:05but they can look at it,
01:07:06mangood,
01:07:07with their income generation capability,
01:07:12so maybe their government service,
01:07:13their personal business,
01:07:16so makita naman more or less
01:07:17how much they are earning,
01:07:18kay,
01:07:19they are paying taxes,
01:07:20man.
01:07:20So that means,
01:07:21this can be traced.
01:07:23The fact yun DJ,
01:07:24nga musmo,
01:07:25every year,
01:07:26musubmit na silang statement of assets
01:07:28and liabilities.
01:07:29Ang problema lang ron,
01:07:31kay for ordinary citizens like us,
01:07:33it's very difficult to request that
01:07:35with the office of the ombudsman,
01:07:37when in fact,
01:07:37ang office of the ombudsman unta,
01:07:40dalira untang mo hataganin,
01:07:41because these are public documents,
01:07:43they have 10 days to address these things.
01:07:45Rampay na ako,
01:07:46ito ilang income,
01:07:47kanang generation capability niya,
01:07:49let's look at their fleet of cars.
01:07:52Numero ng malit,
01:07:53o much box.
01:07:54Correct.
01:07:54That in itself is already like,
01:07:56question mark.
01:07:57Hindi ka kinhanglan,
01:07:58mahimong,
01:07:59correct.
01:07:59auditor sa commission on audit
01:08:00to find out nga,
01:08:01there's off,
01:08:02sa ilang lifestyle.
01:08:04Double-double per brand.
01:08:05There's a,
01:08:06kung sa ilang lifestyle,
01:08:07o sa ilang income.
01:08:08Moran ilang sweldo, no?
01:08:10I hope na sila'y mall,
01:08:11siguro para,
01:08:12to justify this fleet.
01:08:14Na sila'y isla.
01:08:16O.
01:08:18Anyway,
01:08:18pero kanat siya,
01:08:19ang pag-monitor sa itong lifestyle check,
01:08:21nililang po na siya.
01:08:23Kaya walay mo,
01:08:23sumbungan na,
01:08:24why ibig din siya,
01:08:25asa ba po na mulihok ng ombudsman,
