00:00The VALG is still waiting for the response of the local officials who left the country during typhoon.

00:06But what was the reaction of the President when he learned about it?

00:30The President and President John Vickrey Munya told him why they didn't go back to the country.

00:43If they were reasonable, they would be able to look at it.

00:48But if this will not be reasonable, and will not be able to give action to those who are in their own place,

00:58for those who are in the U.S. and Tino,

01:02then we will know what will be the decision of the VIH.

01:05Although the investigation is still ongoing,

01:09for the President, is it morally acceptable for these local officials to leave

01:14despite the challenges that they experienced in their constituents,

01:19and when will we expect the decision of the VIH?

01:24One-one sa Pangulo, hindi niya gusto.

01:26Hindi niya gusto na ang mga liderato ay chill-chill lang.

01:33So, ang trabaho ay para sa taong bayan.

01:38Kasi ang taong bayan umakasap ko sa gobyerno, lalo na sa mga rin itong tasing sitwasyon at tunisyon.

01:44So, hindi pwede sabihin lang na chill-chill lang palagi,

01:47dahil dapat trabaho-trabaho, hindi bakasyon.

01:51Although hindi ko sinasabi nagbabakasyon sila.

01:53Still, sabi ko lang natin,

01:55iwasan natin na umalis ng bansa, tumugon sa kalagay ng ating mga kababayan,

02:00lalo lang na kapag mayroon sa kona o dilugun.

02:30Kasi ang tega.

02:36Kasi ang tega.

02:40Kasi ang tega.

02:47Kasi ang tega.
