00:00speech by saying what what is it in the Philippine context that makes it necessary for us
00:09to consider nuclear power in the first place we have already given close to 40 years since 1986
00:20we turned our back on nuclear and we have given close to 40 years next year 40 years now
00:29uh for the government and society to try everything else and they have tried everything else
00:38and electricity remains expensive and remains unreliable no matter what they try the only thing
00:49left that they have not tried is nuclear power um what's the context of the Philippines needing
00:58nuclear it has no fossil fuels if we had coal in our mountains that we could mine cheaply
01:07we would not need nuclear power so badly uh when Russia attacked Ukraine
01:19Indonesia unilaterally decided we will not export our coal anymore what happened our leaders had to fly
01:30to Indonesia to practically beg the Indonesian president to reverse his policy because the
01:39Philippine economy would collapse we would be a dead end so I don't think it's good for us to be
01:50so dependent
01:51dependent on foreign countries uh and it's an it's it's a positive country no so uh I would not like
02:04to be so dependent on a foreign country
02:08uh I'll give you the example of Vietnam Vietnam Vietnam went through the Vietnam war they were completely bombed and
02:23destroyed
02:24we were way ahead of Vietnam after the Vietnam war 70s
02:33today the Vietnamese population is still slightly smaller than the Philippine population but today they generate three times more electricity
02:47than we do they are at 68,000 megawatts we are at 22,000 megawatts why they have indigenous gold
03:00they don't have to export their wealth to buy their fuel it is in country
03:09it is in country paikot ikot lang ang kayamanda nila ang pera nila
03:14tayo nage export tayo ng kamagana abroad para kumita kumita ng dollars na kailangan natin pambili sa mga materyales na
03:27wala sa Pilipinas
03:30po ay comparison ng coal sa nuclear so pag tinignan nyo this is to run a 620 megawatt power plant
03:44so around the Philippines I think
03:49we need 50 palamak ships of coal
03:51so to run that we need 50 palamak ships of coal around 2.5 million tons
04:03nasusunogin natin
04:05nasusunogin natin para makapag-create tayo ng electricity
04:08samantala kung nuclear
04:10dahil dense siya
04:11ang kailangan na natin 20 tons
04:13so
04:13kasha sa isang jeep
04:15o sabi nga ni Kong Mark
04:17kasha sa isang ano
04:18sa isang Cebu Pacific na flight
04:21ano na yon
04:22good for a year na yon
04:24or 18 months Kong Mark ano
04:25tingnan din natin ang cost
04:27kasi we are adults in the room
04:30kanina sa UP
04:31yung mga kabataan
04:32hindi pa sila affected
04:33so they're focusing on the technology and science
04:37but we're all adults
04:38so we'll look at the cost
04:39so coal one power plant would cost 600 million
04:44while if we are running a nuclear power plant
04:48it's 20 million
04:49so between 600 million and 20 million
04:53kaya ang nuclear
04:55we are very positive that we can
04:58with nuclear
