00:00Ms. Diskaya, I don't know you, but I just have a question for you.

00:09Is it common practice joint ventures in construction projects?

00:14Yes, ma'am.

00:16Do you know the project that is just a day that you have joint ventures in CLTG?

00:26In 2017?

00:27I think so, yes, before.

00:30Flood control, ito?

00:31I can't remember.

00:33Did you finish this project?

00:35I know the projects are done.

00:37Did you use it for people?

00:39I think, I should, I would think so, yes, pa.

00:44If there are deficiencies or problems, I would recommend to this committee that you have joint

00:53you, even if I'm with my daughter.

00:56my son.

00:58Not all of the infrastructure projects

01:00have anumaly.

01:02There is no infrastructure in any country

01:04to grow.

01:06Just to do this in the right way,

01:08the perfect project

01:10and ghost projects

01:12that are being made.

01:14Don't be able to keep it.

01:20And I'll repeat

01:22for the ninth time,

01:24I have nothing to do with

01:26the business of my family.

01:28I didn't know

01:30about their business.

01:32I have no involvement in its operations.

01:3424 years

01:36I've been working

01:38with former Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.

01:40My family

01:42didn't come to me

01:44to make a favor

01:46for the government's contract.

01:48That's what I said before.

01:50I will resign

01:52for the city hall

01:54or in Malacanang.

01:56I'll repeat it.

01:58If I'm using my name,

02:00please consider it

02:01denied.

02:02I don't want to join

02:04in my family's business

02:06and I don't want to know

02:07that I also want to know

02:08in my work.

02:09The truth is,

02:10they're closer

02:12to some politicians,

02:14but not to me.

02:16We don't want to choose

02:18who is our children

02:20in this world.

02:24And I'm not

02:26going to intervene

02:27on behalf of any

02:28business entity.

02:30I'm warning.

02:32the name of the name

02:33rapper.

02:34I observe delicadesa.

02:36I'm calling my name

02:38and I'm not

02:40going to love it.

02:42I'm not going to love it.

02:44And I'm not going to love it.

02:46I'm not going to love it.

02:48I'm not going to love it.

02:50If there are deficiencies

02:52and they have

02:54missing,

02:55I'm going to recommend it.

02:57They will be able to

02:58take care of them.

03:00Even if I'm a child,

03:02even if I'm involved

03:04in any other situation,

03:06they will take care of them.

03:08I am for accountability.

03:10I don't want to

03:12take care of them,

03:13even when.

03:14But all of the countries

03:16need infrastructure

03:18for development.

03:19Don't be used

03:20and don't be used

03:22as well.

03:23For example,

03:24ELCA,

03:25they need development

03:26in the country

03:27as former President Duterte.

03:29There are incentives

03:30that the neighborhoods

03:32are going to be

03:33and there are a lot

03:34of insurgency-free

03:36in some regions

03:37due to incentives

03:38in the neighborhoods.

03:39That's good.

03:40But if we have

03:42corruption,

03:43we can't do that.

03:44In the past,

03:45Mr. Duterte

03:46used to say

03:47that he would smell

03:48that there is corruption.

03:57that every one

03:58in the past

03:59people

04:01have been

04:04applied,

04:06that there is

04:07a lot of people

04:08in the past,

04:09and the people

04:10are concerned.

04:11To make it

04:13and ask them

04:14if they're

04:15interested,

04:16it's going to work.

04:17But if they can,

04:18let them know

04:19it's going to be

04:20that the same way,

04:21the same way,

04:22the same way.
