01:07Then comes the milk. Steamed smooth, creamy, and balanced.
01:13The perfect latte is not brushed. It is crafted. One cup at a time.
01:19Your perfect latte is ready. Coffee first, then everything else.
01:25How can we expect people entrusted with public safety to protect us if their own fitness for duty is in
01:33question?
01:34Good afternoon. Welcome to Beyond the Headlines. I'm DJ Moises.
01:38And today's conversation is brought to us by Coffee First.
01:4018 out of 300 Mandawe Traffic Enforcement Agency or team personal tested positive during random drug testing conducted on October
01:5213.
01:53Mandawe City announced their termination, although the initial results were still subject to confirmatory testing.
02:01Let's look deeper and think better. Joining us today is the head of the Traffic Enforcement Agency of Mandawe, our
02:08team, Hill Retouya.
02:10So hello, Hill. Welcome back to Beyond the Headlines.
02:13Yeah. It's good to be back, sir DJ.
02:16It's also good to have you here. You're among the public officials I know who's passionate about the work.
02:24Thank you. Thank you.
02:26Truly passionate about the work.
02:27So let's get into the main topic of today's conversation, which was the drug testing that was conducted on October
02:3813.
02:39So can you walk us through what happened during that day and the results that came out of it?
02:46Okay.
02:49Siguro it came out naman sa news na ito, what happened.
02:53Pero kung alang yun, it was a city initiative under the administration of Mayor Junkie
03:04to send a strong message ba, nga kanang limpihan na ito, ang ito ang kanang ato ang surroundings,
03:15especially like Samoa, I'm speaking Samoa ba, sa team, nga kanang dapat ang ito mga personnel is kanang drug free.
03:24If you remember, mga news previews kanang ko before nga, kanang, there were kanang issues gani about katong mga corruption.
03:38So, I was thinking that when you're in a hospital, you're in a hospital.
03:46They're in a hospital, but they're in a hospital.
03:51They need to be in a hospital.
03:56They need to be in a hospital.
03:58So, I was thinking that they're in a hospital for them to do that.
04:03So, that triggered the mayor's story.
04:13Previously, there were random drug testing.
04:18Actually, last October 13, that came as a surprise.
04:25I was called the day prior.
04:30So, there was a memorandum called all personnel for a General Assembly meeting.
04:40The day after.
04:42So, there was a lot of people who were in a hospital.
04:52All 300.
04:54Yeah, 300 plus actually in a workforce in the team.
04:59So, you complete it all in a day.
05:02That was on a Tuesday.
05:05Motto, but there was no duty to do that.
05:11So, it was not the duty to do that.
05:16It was not the duty to do that.
05:17So, Motto, they were thinking that there was a meeting.
05:22It was a meeting for me.
05:23But, when I was about to do that,
05:25Motto, there were personnel in the SAMSO
05:29that you were conducting for a screening for drug test.
05:35Motto, although, after that,
05:40I realized that maybe there were 18 of them tested positive.
05:48So, but the problem of the people who were doing is there were a few of them that it's either
05:55that there were no subject for this.
05:59And the other thing is that they were doing this.
06:05They were doing this for a long time.
06:07They were doing this for a long time.
06:10They were doing this for a long time.
06:14It's only the other day that I got a complete report from SAMSO.
06:21Right after it was on a Monday,
06:24the meeting of the mayor, the city administrator, the attorney Sally.
06:29Then, Motto, it was the decision.
06:35So, that was right after I got a copy of the report from SAMSO.
06:4118 of those who were tested positive.
06:46Contrary to the fake news.
06:50There were 32.
06:53There were about three other reports and headlines.
06:58So, Motto is the original on Monday,
07:02the city administrator of the city administrator of the home.
07:05It was official.
07:07There were just 18 of those reports.
07:10There were only three other figures of the people who were tested.
07:12But thanks to the other people who were testing positive for this,
07:14no matter what,
07:15no matter what they were testing for.
07:19for this screening,
07:22I called it yesterday.
07:25I was a historian.
07:28I was a reason for this.
07:31Although,
07:32they were a reason for this.
07:34But as a sanction,
07:36I was a drug test
07:40at their own expense.
07:43But that will not stop the city
07:48or SAMUAS or SAMSO
07:50to conduct another surprise drug testing
07:54at Ilaha.
07:56I was a fan of this.
07:59Even if you were 10%
08:03of you were able to get it from random,
08:06who knows?
08:09Their people were positive.
08:14There was no other tagaibaw.
08:15So, maybe,
08:18naapa dyan nga
08:19yung mga law-in nga drug test
08:22nga ipahiga yun.
08:24Moving forward.
08:25Yeah, moving forward.
08:26Pero, siyempre,
08:27surprised na dyan nga nga.
08:28Pero,
08:29as for those nga katong,
08:31wala,
08:32mahugmo dyan dyan sila,
08:34kung technically,
08:35their refusal to
08:36ka nang sakatong sa drug testing,
08:40possibly,
08:41it's tantamount to
08:42them being positive,
08:44siguro,
08:45siguro,
08:45for some reason,
08:46ang uban valid man sa jod kaayo.
08:48Like, for example,
08:49ang usa na asiay,
08:51morag nag-dialysis siya.
08:52Yung nana,
08:53yung usa nanganak.
08:54Yung nana ba?
08:55Pero katong uban nga morag
08:56magbawrasan kaayo,
08:57di lang na ako ma-mention.
09:00So,
09:01mo na,
09:01nga ako silang ipa-drug test
09:03at their own expense.
09:05Reports actually say that
09:06the city of Pandawa
09:08ordered termination
09:11before the completion
09:13of the confirmatory testing.
09:16So,
09:16what is confirmatory testing
09:19and then what's the timeline
09:20around it?
09:21Yes,
09:22that's true,
09:22no?
09:22Kaya sa pagkakaroon
09:24sa katong atuang
09:25sa administration ni mayor,
09:28ka nang,
09:29mo na,
09:29as I've mentioned,
09:30they're sending a strong message
09:32nga,
09:32kung pasitib ka,
09:33you have no,
09:34you have no place
09:35sa dere,
09:36sa nga mo work,
09:38dere ba?
09:38Kaya ikaw lang
09:39magdag-hugaw-hugaw.
09:40So,
09:40mo na,
09:41right there and then,
09:42pag gawa sa official report
09:44nga positive sila,
09:46pag gawa sa dayon
09:46ang memo,
09:47terminating 18 of them.
09:49Kaya,
09:50although sa mga previous years
09:52ang ginahimu ato
09:53was,
09:54kuhan man,
09:55ka nang,
09:56gihuwat ang katong

11:58and that's the risk
11:59also,
12:00and some safety risk
