00:00In my recent State of the Nation I address, I reaffirm that our duty to the people extends to protecting
00:07the country's interests,
00:09upholding the rule of law, and securing the resources upon which our communities depend.
00:15This is timely, as 2026 marks a decade since the 2016 Arbitral Award affirmed the Philippines' maritime entitlements under the
00:25UNCLOS.
00:26I-paglalaban natin ang ating mga karapatan sa paraang mapayapa, naaayon sa batas, at naaayon sa ating mga prinsipyo.
00:36But defending our territory is a responsibility shared by the entire nation.
00:42It calls on each of us to understand our history, to know our rights, and to take part in protecting
00:50the national interest.
00:51We begin by educating the youth where our maritime rights come from and why they matter.
00:57Across every platform available to us, we shall champion truth, counter disinformation, and encourage responsible discourse.
01:07Our fisherfolk, too, deserve our unconditional support.
01:11Their continued presence in our waters strengthens our connection to our maritime territory.
01:17Above all, we have a duty to uphold the integrity of our institutions by demanding transparency, accountability, and a standard
01:27of service worthy of the Filipino people.
01:31Sa pagkatangtibay ng ating panindigan bilang bansa,
01:36ay nagsisimula sa lalim ng ating kaalaman at lakas ng ating pagkakabuklud bilang isang bayan.
01:44Magkakaiba man ang ating pamamaraan, iisa, ang mensahe ng mga ito.
01:50Ang Pilipinas ay karapat dapat na ipaglaban.
01:54Ang bawat Pilipino ay karapat dapat na paglingkuran.
01:58Ang ating soberanya ay karapat dapat na ipagtanggol.
02:03Ganito natin binibigyan ng muka ang kabayanihan sa ating panahon.
02:08Sa pagkikilala sa ating bayan, sa pagtataguyod sa mga karapatan nito,
02:13at sa paggawa ng ating responsibilidad upang manatiling matatag, malaya, at nagkakaisa ang Pilipinas.
02:32Pagkika masi ng mga eryo, sa pagkikahajar da pagkakureo na ipgamWay.
02:35You
