So, a historic legal debate is about to take place on YouTube, September 17, 5 to 7 p.m.
00:32.0
It will be between Atty. Rani Libayan, a trial lawyer also known as Batas Natin on YouTube
00:39.0
and Public Prosecutor EJ Fabrega from Ormoc, Leyte, also known as Fiscal EJ on YouTube as well
00:48.0
This debate aims to determine once and for all whether the age of sexual consent in the Philippines is set at 16 or 18 years old
00:59.0
Okay, so you might be asking, ano naman ang naging problema at bakit nila pagdedebatehan ito?
01:08.0
Allow me to explain
01:10.0
Several months ago, on a live discussion in his 400,000 subscriber channel
01:18.0
Atty. Libayan boldly proclaimed and continually asserted since
01:24.0
that the age of sexual consent in the Philippines had always been 18, was never 12, and still not 16
01:33.0
The age of sexual consent is always 18, it was never 12, it's not still 16
01:40.0
Even after reading about former President Rodrigo Duterte's signing of RA 11648 that traced the AOSC from 12 years old to 16 years old
01:51.0
Nakakainis kasi, mali-mali kasi itong sinasabi nila eh, itong PNA talaga na ito
01:57.0
Siyempre, madaming depunker sa social media, they started countering his statements saying that his claims are absurd
02:05.0
and the AOSC is indeed 16 and not 18 as indicated in the signed RA
02:13.0
One such content creator used a video of a low-key content creator named Fiscal EJ to support his argument
02:22.0
The said video supports the AOSC being set at 16, katulad din ang sinasabi sa patas na pinirmahan ni Duterte
02:32.0
But Libayan remained adamant on it being 18
02:43.0
As social media habit, a number of content creators have invited Libayan to a friendly debate about the subject
02:51.0
Pero wala siyang tinatanggap dahil ang lagi niyong kondisyon ay kailangang abogado din daw ang makadebate niya
03:00.0
Now, to cut the long story short, upon seeing that Fiscal EJ himself was already sucked in this mess
03:07.0
Meloyap finally got to convince him na tanggapin ang hamon ni Atty. Libayan
03:13.0
at makipagdebate kung ano ba talaga ang tunay na nakalagay sa batas tungkol sa age of sexual consent
03:21.0
I just want to make a stand na tama yung paniniwala ko, 16 talaga yung AOSC, not 18
03:30.0
So Fiscal EJ, with the sole goal of making a stand on what he believes to be right
03:38.0
and challenge what he believes to be wrong information being spread to a wide audience on social media
03:46.0
I will be presenting evidence na sa batas talaga, 16 yung age of sexual consent and not 18
03:52.0
So now, I am inviting everyone in the legal community to participate in this discussion
04:00.0
Check it out, to chime in, in your TikToks, Facebooks, vlogs, kung ano man, YouTube channel
04:08.0
Kung ano ang palagay nyo sa tunay na batas sa Pilipinas tungkol sa age of sexual consent
04:16.0
Just to be clear din, this debate is not about what the participants personally think what the age of sexual consent should be
04:26.0
It is literally ano ba ang batas ngayon sa Pilipinas tungkol dito
04:31.0
Either way, excited na ako na marinig ang mga argumento and I hope this message reaches your community
04:39.0
So the best people who can really speak on this matter could be heard the loudest
04:46.0
and not just the demagogues on social media that support ideas based only in their tribal leanings
04:54.0
I think this is a rare and golden opportunity to get important legal discourse at the center of Pinoy social media
05:04.0
kahit paminsan-minsan lang
05:08.0
Again, you can catch the debate on September 17 at RMN's DZXL News Channel on YouTube and Facebook
05:18.0
So again, to our lawyer friends, I hope you can support this event and don't miss this chance to give your two cents about this issue
05:29.0
to make sure na something productive comes out of it kahit pa paano
05:36.0
