00:00Thank you, Mr. Senate President. Thank you, Distinguished Majority Floor Leader.

00:05I rise to make a brief manifestation in response to the events of recent days.

00:14Ginong Pangulo,

00:17Meron po tayong kasabihan sa wikang Pilipino.

00:22Kapag nagturo ka ng daliri sa iba,

00:25may tatlong daliri na nakaturo palagi.

00:30Pabalik sa iyo.

00:32Sa mga nakarang linggo,

00:34malinaw na nililihis ang galit ng taong bayan

00:37tungkol sa mga ghost at substandard flood control projects

00:42mula sa mga totoong may kasalanan

00:45patungo sa Senado at sa ilang mga miyembro nito.

00:50Tila pilit na ginagawang panakibutas,

00:53ika nga at folgay,

00:55at dibersyon ang mga senador

00:58palayo sa kamara

01:00at sa mga tunay na may sala.

01:03Klarong-klaro po ang script nito.

01:06Ipitin ang tatlong dating DPWH officials

01:10pakantahin sa kanila

01:12mema,

01:13mema bangit lang na senador

01:15habang pinagtatakpan ang mga congressman

01:18na tunay

01:19nakasabwat nila sa mga lugar

01:22na ginagalawa nila.

01:23Simple ang patunay dito.

01:27Kapanipaniwala ba

01:28na wala silang kinausap

01:31na kahit isang congress mang nakaupo

01:34na totoong may hawak na mga distrito

01:36sa lugar na ginalawa nila

01:39sa hinabahaba

01:41ng testimonya nila dito

01:43o sa kamara.

01:45Banggit sila ng banggit.

01:47Name-draft sila ng name-draft
