00:00So, what I want to say to my manifestation is why I need to be Vice President here?
00:11I know, Madam Chair and my dear colleagues,
00:19it's hard for us, if ordinary people are arrested again,
00:27but if billions of people are talking about it,
00:33it's suddenly confidential or busy at work.
00:39I believe that when serious allegations are raised,
00:47Congress has only one responsibility,
00:50to act, to examine, to let the process move forward.
01:01Ako po, I am disappointed na walang ating Vice President.
01:06But I'm not surprised, Madam Chair.
01:09I'm not surprised.
01:11Pero mas maganda sana kung nandito siya sapagkat palagay ko nagikinig siya.
01:17Alam niya lahat na pinag-uusapan dito.
01:19Now, the Vice President has shown a pattern.
01:28Matapang sa salita, pero umiiwas sa tanong.
01:34She is tough when speaking to media,
01:38when issuing statements,
01:40Pero kapag haharap sa proseso, biglang nawawala.
01:46Madam Chair, this is not only about attendance.
01:54This is a preview of leadership.
02:00Sabihin ko ulit, a preview of leadership.
02:05Binanggit niya na na gusto niya maging Pangulo ng Pilipinas.
02:10So ibig sabihin,
02:12pag siya Pangulo ng Pilipinas,
02:14ahayaan niya na pumunta lang sa media
02:18ang isang leader ng bansa
02:20upang sabihin ang mga bagay na ito
02:23kaysa siya ay humarap
02:26sa committee na siya nag-iimbisiga.
02:30A leader, Madam Chair,
02:33who avoids questions,
02:37sends a dangerous message.
02:40That power is above accountability.
02:45Hindi pwedeng piliin lang kung kailang kasasagot.
02:51Public office demands transparency
02:55because, as the Constitution says,
02:59public office is a public trust,
03:03especially when the questions are quite serious.
03:09Now, we have seen this before.
03:13Toughness directed at those who cannot fight back.
03:19Remember the sheriff, she punts.
03:24Matapang sa mga taong walang laban.
03:29Real leadership is tested when you face scrutiny,
03:35not when you avoid it.
03:38So, batay po, sa affidavit
03:42ni Sen. Trillanes, Madam Chair,
03:46Mahigit 111 million ang pumasok sa mga accounts
03:51ni BP Sara as of April 2016 pa lamang.
03:56May mga summary of deposits din
03:59na nagpapakita ng mahigit na 2.4 billion pesos
04:04na dumaloy sa account nila,
04:07silang dalawa ni dating Pangulong Duterte.
04:11Now, this is not political harassment.
04:16O, Madam Vice President,
04:19hindi po ito chismis.
04:22Ito ay mga bank records
04:24na sinasabing similar
04:26sa hawak ng AMLC.
04:30Kapag mali ang computation
04:32ng Sen. Trillanes,
04:35sana pumunta po kayo rito,
04:38Madam Vice President,
04:39upang i-correct niyo kami.
04:43The simple life image,
04:46Madam Chair,
04:48sinasabi ninyo,
04:51Madam Vice President,
04:54na simple lamang ang buhay niyo,
04:56pero ang dami niyong abugado.
04:59Oo.
05:00Pero paano naging simple ang buhay
05:02kung may daang-daang million pisong payout
05:06mula sa isang tao
05:08na iniuugnay sa droga
05:12at sa pogo.
05:14Transparency is a must,
05:16Madam Chair.
05:17Ang sabi nga po,
05:19na sinabi ko na,
05:20nung una kong manifestation dito,
05:23dalawang constitution na pinapaniwalaan ko,
05:26ang constitution na Republika ng Pilipinas
05:28at ang biblical constitution na ang sabi,
05:32the truth shall set you free.
05:35Pero sa Kongreso,
05:38ang truth ay makikita lamang kung sasagot ka sa tanong,
05:42Oo.
05:44You are the second official of this land.
05:49Hindi pwedeng sa video ka lamang sumasagot
05:53habang kami rito ay nagahanap ng karatohanan.
05:58Madam Chairwoman,
06:00it is high time for Vice President Sarah
06:04to face these allegations of ill-gotten and hidden wealth.
06:11Ill-gotten and hidden wealth.
06:15Ayokong maniwala sana rito.
06:18But if the Vice President will appear here
06:20and explain all of these allegations,
06:23then we will be able to find out the real truth of the matter.
06:26Show us your Salen.
06:30Explain the Sami Uy checks.
06:34And prove to the Filipino people
06:37na ang yaman ninyo,
06:39Madam President,
06:40Madam Vice President,
06:42ay galing sa pawis,
06:44hindi sa payout.
06:46Huwag po tayong magtago
06:49sa sayaw
06:51ng tinatawag nating confidentiality.
06:55Yan lamang po ang aking manifestation.
