00:30Batid daw ng Pangulo na umaabot na sa kanyang mga kaalyado ang imbisigasyon sa Umanoy-Anumalia sa mga flood control project.
00:38Pero anya patunay ito ng imbisigasyon na hindi para isulo ang interes sa pampulitika kundi para tuldukan ang katiwalian.
01:00Hindi rin daw porke nagbitiw ay abswelto na sa pananagutan ng opisyal.
01:08That's not enough. That's not enough.
01:11There is a great deal of damage, economic damage, actual damage to people's lives.
01:16I mean, very simple.
01:18A lousy flood control project that collapsed during the flood that killed a family.
01:24I mean, how can you live with that?
01:25I can't live with it, so I won't live with it, so I will keep pushing.
01:29Para may iwasan ang ghost at substandard na proyekto, dapat din daw ibalik ang acceptance requirement kung saan kailangan munang inspeksyonin ng lokal na pamahalaan ng proyekto bago mabayaran ng kontraktor.
01:42Batid din ang Pangulo ang galit ng mga nagprotesta sa September 21 Trillion Peso March na posibleng masundan ng isa pang malawakang protesta sa Nobyembre.
01:51Pero ayon sa Pangulo, ang pananagutan ng pagpaparusa, hindi pwedeng madaliin at idaan sa gigil.
01:59The sins they committed, it's hard to swallow. I understand that. But if we are a nation, a people of laws, we have to follow the law. Otherwise, whatever we do is not legitimate.
02:13We know many of these people are not innocent. But if you're going to bring them to court, you must have a very strong case.
02:21Sa pagpapatuloy naman ang investigasyon ng Independent Commission for Infrastructure o ICI, nagkumpirma ng dadalo sa pagdinig si Sen. Mark Villar na naging DPWH Secretary noong 2016 hanggang 2021, panahon ni dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.
02:36As former DPWH Secretary, probably he can share with us any information that he has with regard to the source of funding, planning, and implementation of the projects when he was Secretary.
02:53Muli rin nga harap sa ICI, ang mga asawang Curly at Sara Descaya. Ipatatawag din sila dating House Speaker Martin Romualdez.
03:00At nagbitiw na ako, Bicol Partylist Representative Zaldico, na dating Chairman ng House Appropriations Committee.
03:06Dumarami rin ang nananawagan na gawing publiko ang mga pagdinig ng ICI, lalot itinigil pa ang samantala ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee ang kanilang mga pagdinig.
03:15Open sa publiko, para at least ang makaalam ng publiko, ano ba talaga nangyayari, pati nga daw po yung mga executive-executive session na yan, dapat nalalaman din ang publiko yan, para maiwasan natin yung mga pagdududa.
03:28Yun nga nung sinasabi natin yung whitewash.
03:29Hopefully, the ICI can open to the public its deliberations.
03:35Para kay Retard Supreme Court Chief Justice Artemio Panganiban, hindi katanggap-tanggap na dahilan ang sinabi noon ng ICI na ayaw nila ng trial by publicity, kaya privado ang mga hearing.
03:47Ang mga improper o dinararapat na mga tanong, pwede naman daw salagin ng mga abogado na mga iniimbitehang personalidad.
03:54The commission is very much aware of the request and or the position of some people asking for more transparency, but the position or the policy of the commission still remains the same.
04:09Ayon sa ICI, isinapubliko naman nilang naunang findings na inihain sa ombudsman.
04:15So no change?
04:16Right now, there's not.
04:18Ito ang unang balita, Ivan Merina para sa GMA Integrated News.
04:22Kapuso, huwag magpapahuli sa latest news and updates.
04:27Mag-iuna ka sa balita at mag-subscribe sa YouTube channel ng GMA Integrated News.
