00:53He's unfit now.
00:54That's why we kept on asking,
00:55how is he really the former president?
00:57Because, you know,
00:58that's why he's supposed to defer to his confirmation of charges
01:02because of his health and medical condition.

01:08there's a hearing in the competency.
01:11So, let's try the experts.
01:14Both sides,
01:15the ICC, the prosecution,
01:16the defense side.

01:31hindi ako expert
01:32sa kung anong,
01:34ano dapat ang kapasidad ng isang witness
01:37or ng isang accused.
01:39Pero, ma'am,
01:40sa conversation niya,
01:41sharp pa rin po bang mag-unfor sa pag-isip si former president?
01:44Hmm...
01:45Sige,
01:46antayin na lang siguro natin yung hearing sa competency kung meron man.
01:51I'm sure,
01:52masasabi ng mga experts kung ano yung nakikita nila.
