00:45.0
Yung mga nakahabol dun sa live natin kahapon from airport
00:49.0
Pasensya na if the quality was not good kung saan-saan ko lang ginagawa
00:54.0
Kitang-kitang nyo naman na medyo pagod talaga tayo
00:59.0
Talagang kitang-kitang
01:01.0
Back to back to back
01:03.0
Believe it or not, hindi tapos
01:05.0
Tuloy-tuloy yung mga morning engagements natin
01:08.0
Kanina mga maga rin may mga interviews tayo
01:10.0
Mga 8-9am pa lang
01:14.0
Dyan sa mga kasama natin si DJ Chacha
01:17.0
Tsaka si Parented Filen
01:19.0
Kasi on the break yato siya
01:22.0
Medyo tuloy-tuloy ito
01:24.0
I hope I'm gonna be still
01:29.0
Kanina medyo may mga inaaway naman tayo dyan sa Twitter
01:33.0
But I love Twitter because that's one way for me to
01:37.0
Keep in touch in terms of yung shifting opinions
01:40.0
Especially on the most contentious issues all across the world
01:43.0
At dun sa mga syunga na walang alam sa atin
01:46.0
Just to be clear, I have written books on different parts of the world
01:50.0
As in academically published books
01:52.0
And journal articles
01:54.0
So hindi ako nagmamaganda
01:56.0
Dahil ako po ay presidente o senador ng iba't ibang bansa
01:59.0
Yung nagsasalita tayo
02:01.0
May alam po tayo sa iba't ibang reyon
02:03.0
I mean I can confidently say I'm intimately familiar with at least
02:07.0
Three regions of the world
02:10.0
So just to be clear
02:15.0
Having said that, pag-usapan natin ito
02:17.0
Quite interesting mga kameta
02:19.0
Quite interesting
02:22.0
Dahil ito si Sarah Duterte
02:25.0
Medyo acting president natin
02:27.0
Acting officer in charge
02:29.0
Dahil of course, as usual
02:31.0
I'm sorry, not as usual
02:35.0
Ang ating minamahal na Pangulong Marcos Jr.
02:38.0
Is on international travel
02:40.0
Again, in fairness naman
02:41.0
I mean there's Grand Prix kind of diplomacy and travel
02:44.0
Na medyo kwestionable
02:45.0
Because I haven't seen the actual investments coming in
02:48.0
So sana naman yung mga kaibigan natin sa Department of Trade and Industry
02:51.0
Hindi lang hanggang purong MOU at mga pledges lang
02:54.0
Medyo sana tapos na tayo dyan
02:56.0
May pang-tatay diplomacy na yan
02:59.0
So I have some issues about the Grand Prix diplomacy, etc.
03:03.0
And I had a conversation with friends back in Singapore a few days ago
03:08.0
But there are some big events and summits
03:11.0
That are very timely
03:13.0
And I believe that our president should indeed attend
03:15.0
And attend very proactively
03:17.0
Kasama dyan yung ongoing ASEAN GCC
03:21.0
Gulf Cooperation Council Summit
03:23.0
So yung mga leading Arab countries
03:25.0
At saka ASEAN countries
03:27.0
Ay magkakaroon ng summit
03:29.0
This is fantastic
03:30.0
This is important
03:31.0
And I look forward to very proactive
03:35.0
And very fruitful interventions and discussions by the president
03:40.0
Not only in terms of getting business and investments
03:43.0
But also in terms of making sure na
03:46.0
We are on same board with our fellow global south countries
03:49.0
Who are also extremely troubled
03:51.0
About yung mga development na nangyari ngayon sa Gitnang Silangat
03:55.0
Not too far away from Riyadh in Saudi Arabia
03:59.0
Because after all marami tayong mga
04:01.0
We have thousands
04:02.0
We have thousands and thousands of ating mga kababayan
04:07.0
In Israel, in occupied territories
04:09.0
But we have millions of ating mga kababayan
04:12.0
In the Gulf Cooperation Council nations
04:15.0
From Oman to Bahrain to Emirates
04:18.0
Maratal Arabia to Saudi Arabia
04:22.0
To Bahrain as I said
04:25.0
To all of these countries
04:26.0
So malaki po ang ating interest
04:29.0
Malaki talaga ang ating interest mga kameta
04:31.0
To make sure na maayos po yung ating diplomasya
04:35.0
At proactive po yung ating diplomasya
04:36.0
Now speaking of diplomacy
04:39.0
Yung mga nagreklamo dyan na mahina ng internet
04:41.0
Hindi naman yata diba?
04:42.0
Okay naman yung internet natin
04:43.0
Baka kayo po yung mahina ng internet
04:47.0
Okay naman yung internet natin
04:52.0
Bumalik lang tayo sa Pilipinas
04:54.0
Third world na kaagad ang infrastructure
04:57.0
Hindi naman sa ganoon
04:58.0
Laki nga ng bayad natin sa broadband
05:00.0
Ay nakong Pilipinas
05:02.0
Ay nakong ayokong magsalita
05:05.0
Mahirap na magsalita
05:08.0
Balikan natin ito
05:16.0
In fairness to acting president
05:18.0
Essentially natin
05:19.0
Yung office na in charge natin
05:20.0
Of course vice president is in charge
05:22.0
When the president is abroad
05:24.0
In fairness naman to Sara Duterte
05:26.0
Bago tayo pumunta
05:27.0
Doon sa mga ibang statements niya
05:30.0
Hindi pa rin tapos yung whole
05:32.0
The whole yung mga
05:34.0
Mga bardagulan na nangyayari
05:35.0
Sa loob ng ruling coalition
05:36.0
Pag-usapan natin yan
05:37.0
Kasi may statement din si
05:39.0
Vice president Sara Duterte
05:41.0
Na know your true friends
05:43.0
Know who you are true friends
05:45.0
May inimply na may mga
05:47.0
May mga ahas dyan
05:52.0
Mga may pag-usapan natin yan
05:54.0
Pero dito sa kanyang payag
05:56.0
Dito sa kanyang payag
05:59.0
Vice president Sara Duterte
06:02.0
If you are competent
06:03.0
If you're doing the right thing
06:06.0
I'm more than happy to support you
06:07.0
I don't care who you are
06:09.0
I don't care what's your background
06:13.0
I don't care what's your color
06:15.0
I'm gonna care for your life
06:17.0
Every child's life matter
06:19.0
I was very clear about that
06:20.0
I was a bit emotional about that
06:23.0
I have to control
06:24.0
The airport and all of that
06:26.0
Let's talk about this
06:29.0
Vice president Sara Duterte
06:33.0
Not only constructive
06:34.0
But a very important intervention
06:37.0
The idea of a ceasefire
06:44.0
This is quite actually sensitive
06:48.0
The United States position
06:50.0
Is quite different
06:52.0
The United States
06:54.0
A United Nations Security Council
06:56.0
Let's show it here
07:00.0
A United Nations Security Council
07:01.0
That essentially was calling for a ceasefire
07:03.0
Because the US position
07:04.0
They have a special ally there
07:06.0
That has a right to self-defense
07:07.0
And has to deal with
07:10.0
That's the position of the United States
07:13.0
Which many other countries don't share
07:14.0
Not only the Arab world
07:15.0
But also many countries like Indonesia
07:17.0
Many countries like Malaysia
07:18.0
Many countries like Turkey
07:19.0
Which is the NATO ally
07:21.0
And many countries in Latin America
07:23.0
Like Brazil for instance
07:24.0
Brazil is now the president
07:26.0
Of the United Nations Security Council
07:27.0
So we posted a video there
07:30.0
On the United Nations Security Council
07:31.0
Everyone raised their hands
07:33.0
Only two abstained
07:34.0
Only the US said no
07:35.0
So that was the resolution
07:36.0
Essentially calling for a ceasefire
07:38.0
Just the usage of the term ceasefire
07:42.0
That's very sensitive
07:45.0
The position of the US
07:46.0
Is that they have to 100% stand
07:48.0
By their special ally
07:49.0
In the Middle East
07:52.0
Of course President Biden
07:53.0
Also emphasized that
08:01.0
It's a very delicate
08:02.0
Very difficult balancing act
08:03.0
Although I'm not very sure
08:04.0
He was seen as balanced
08:05.0
By much of the neighboring countries
08:06.0
Especially in Arab and Muslim countries
08:07.0
And the fact that the US
08:08.0
Vetoed the United Nations Security Council
08:09.0
Of being the lone country
08:11.0
Of course was not necessarily
08:12.0
Positively received
08:15.0
This has given chance to China
08:16.0
To present itself as a global leader
08:19.0
Given that context
08:21.0
This is what we are doing
08:26.0
This is what he said
08:27.0
That until the barangay
08:29.0
We give it a global perspective
08:30.0
And we look at how the Philippines
08:32.0
Within that global perspective
08:34.0
Speaking of that global perspective
08:38.0
For Sarah Duterte
08:39.0
Of course you also know
08:43.0
The Zimmerman heritage
08:46.0
Towards the end of her speech
08:49.0
This is not something
08:50.0
Totally alien to her
08:51.0
She visited also Israel
08:53.0
Together with President Duterte
08:55.0
President Duterte
08:58.0
President Duterte said
09:00.0
About the conflict right now
09:01.0
In the Middle East
09:03.0
It's just so crazy
09:04.0
And out of this world
09:05.0
I'd rather not even talk about it
09:06.0
And it's not like
09:07.0
You separate the water
09:09.0
In the West Philippines
09:12.0
There are levels of
09:20.0
But in fairness to Sarah Duterte
09:21.0
In fairness to her
09:23.0
Literally constructive
09:28.0
Sarah being a mother
09:33.0
She also appreciates
09:36.0
No matter who you are
09:44.0
The love of a mother
09:45.0
Is really different
09:48.0
Let's just look at the video
09:53.0
I'm just trying to bring this out
09:57.0
Because in fairness
09:58.0
The draft is good
10:03.0
Very stateswoman like
10:06.0
That's why I do it
10:08.0
Let's not be haters
10:10.0
Let's not be haters
10:13.0
A Filipino leader
10:15.0
If you didn't vote for him
10:19.0
The election is already over
10:23.0
But he's already there
10:25.0
If she's doing something well
10:26.0
You have to support that
10:27.0
You have to support that
10:28.0
And you have to appreciate the context
10:34.0
Sarcastic comments
10:38.0
I'm being sarcastic
10:40.0
Let's look at this
10:42.0
Please just tell me
10:56.0
This is the other one
00:00.0
11:53.000 --> 12:23.000
00:00.0
12:23.000 --> 12:53.000
00:00.0
12:53.000 --> 13:23.000
00:00.0
13:23.000 --> 13:53.000
00:00.0
13:54.000 --> 13:55.000
13:56.0
This is the side of Sara Duterte
13:58.0
Many people tend to see
13:59.0
When they meet her
14:00.0
Actually behind the scenes
14:03.0
She's very gentle
14:06.0
She's actually very nice
14:09.0
I'm absolutely 100%
14:11.0
You saw everything I said
14:12.0
About the criticism
14:14.0
Througout the months
14:17.0
Sara Duterte also has this side
14:22.0
I don't want to post
14:29.0
I'm the last one you should tell
14:33.0
Very good statement
14:35.0
This is an important
14:36.0
Important statement
14:39.0
How I wish I heard that first
14:40.0
From President Marcos Jr.
14:42.0
President Marcos Jr. was
14:43.0
First in the Belt and Road Initiative
14:45.0
Looks like investments
14:46.0
Putting relations with China
14:51.0
But I wanted to hear
14:52.0
What is the position
14:53.0
Of the Philippines
14:55.0
And our great fantastic folks
14:58.0
Two state solutions
15:02.0
Is the Philippines
15:03.0
Going to be more like US
15:04.0
And stand by one side
15:05.0
Through and through
15:06.0
If there's going to be
15:07.0
Massive humanitarian
15:10.0
Regardless of the effect
15:12.0
And children especially
15:13.0
And Sara Duterte's
15:16.0
Life of the youth
15:19.0
And she specified
15:22.0
It's for all the youth
15:23.0
So in the same way
15:26.0
Not just for our countrymen
15:28.0
Of terror attacks
15:30.0
But for all children
15:31.0
Who are suffering
15:33.0
Round of violence
15:35.0
This is not the first time
15:36.0
You know the conflict
15:40.0
This has been going on
15:41.0
For quite some time
15:43.0
We have to condemn
15:44.0
Any indiscriminate
15:46.0
Against civilians
15:48.0
Unacceptable by anyone
15:49.0
Under any circumstances
15:52.0
This is something
15:54.0
That I appreciate
15:58.0
President Sara Duterte
15:59.0
By Vice President
16:01.0
But I won't be surprised
16:02.0
If Vice President
16:05.0
For the highest office
16:06.0
Which is not impossible
16:07.0
At some point in time
16:11.0
More of this side
16:14.0
She being Duterte
16:23.0
Fantastic statement
16:29.0
With other like-minded
16:30.0
Countries to push for
16:35.0
And protect all lives
16:36.0
All civilian lives
16:37.0
All children's life
16:38.0
That's very very important
16:43.0
Tatay Digong's statements
16:50.0
Six years of someone like that
16:51.0
Sorry to the superfans
16:55.0
Sorry to the others
16:56.0
Who thought about
17:04.0
We have a disagreement
17:05.0
But the other thing is
17:07.0
There's also this
17:18.0
Know who your true friends are
17:20.0
And this is what she posted
17:21.0
In her Facebook account
17:23.0
That was uploaded
17:25.0
This is of course
17:30.0
Removal of her confidential fund
17:32.0
Of the House of Representatives
17:35.0
Under the leadership of
17:38.0
The right-hand man
17:40.0
President Bono Marcos
17:41.0
President Ferdinand Romualdo Marcos
17:44.0
And his right-hand man
17:46.0
The Speaker of the House
17:49.0
In one part of her message
17:51.0
This is what she said
17:53.0
This is in English
17:56.0
Don't take part in any sort of oppression
17:58.0
Instead in times of difficulty
18:00.0
Who your true friends are
18:02.0
Everything in this world
18:03.0
Has its right time
18:07.0
So what's that suppose
18:09.0
Is that an implicit threat
18:10.0
Or anything like that
18:12.0
This is what's interesting
18:17.0
The Vice President
18:20.0
Invoked the Scripture
18:21.0
Speaking of Ecclesiastes
18:29.0
If I'm not mistaken
18:33.0
There is a season
18:34.0
And a time for every matter under heaven
18:39.0
And a time to pluck up what is planted
18:41.0
And a time to heal
18:43.0
A time to break down
18:44.0
And a time to build
18:46.0
And a time to laugh
18:48.0
And a time to dance
18:49.0
A time to throw away stones
18:50.0
And a time to gather stones together
18:52.0
A time to embrace
18:53.0
And a time to refrain from embracing
18:57.0
And a time to lose
18:59.0
And a time to throw away
19:02.0
And a time to sue
19:03.0
A time to keep silence
19:05.0
And a time to speak
19:08.0
And a time to hate
19:11.0
And a time for peace
19:13.0
Actually, if you read our scripture, it's amazing
19:17.0
There's just so much wisdom and poetry there
19:21.0
There's just so much wisdom and poetry
19:23.0
And just yesterday we were talking about it
19:25.0
For a moment, let's park our issues
19:29.0
You know my stance on confidential fun
19:31.0
On the Duterte legacy and all
19:40.0
The good vice president
19:43.0
Is really having this moment of spiritual reflection
19:46.0
Is having this moment of introspection, etc
19:50.0
So even if there's something like that
19:53.0
I don't know, I mean
19:59.0
You know, you rather try to be on the
20:03.0
I mean, one reason why
20:05.0
I correctly predicted that the foreign policy
20:07.0
Would be much better under Marcos than Duterte
20:09.0
Was precisely because
20:11.0
I was open to the possibility that
20:14.0
There are other dimensions to Marcos Jr.
20:18.0
Now, that doesn't mean we're gonna forget about
20:20.0
The dictatorship's legacy
20:21.0
About a lot of shenanigans
20:23.0
And speaking of Marlica's sovereign dwell fund
20:25.0
Well, maybe it was just a drama
20:28.0
Remember, I gave two possibilities
20:30.0
One is like genuinely reconsidering it
20:32.0
Or second, maybe they just didn't like
20:35.0
What was proposed by the advisory board
20:37.0
So to those who didn't watch the whole thing
20:43.0
Of our vlog the other day
20:45.0
Please check it out
20:46.0
Because I also looked at the glass half empty
20:48.0
And it looks like the glass half empty part
20:50.0
Perhaps was more true
20:52.0
But anyway, we're gonna wait for more updates
20:54.0
On Marlica's sovereign funds
20:56.0
Final version in terms of
20:58.0
Implementing rules and regulation
21:00.0
What tweaks were made by the president potentially
21:02.0
How much power the president
21:06.0
In the review and revision
21:08.0
Let's look at that
21:11.0
My argument still stands
21:12.0
You have to put pressure on the government
21:15.0
Look at the positive direction
21:16.0
In terms of Philippine foreign policy
21:17.0
I'm not saying things are gonna be fantastic forever
21:19.0
Or I'm not gonna say
21:21.0
Things have been 100% the way I want it
21:24.0
But in fairness, things have turned out very well
21:26.0
On some fronts compared to what was expected
21:29.0
And I was not shocked
21:32.0
Not to be arrogant
21:33.0
But I kind of predicted these things
21:35.0
More than a year ago
21:37.0
There's another dimension to Marcos Jr.
21:39.0
He's not just son
21:41.0
He's not a clone of Marcos Sr.
21:43.0
He has his own mind
21:44.0
He has his own reflections and all of that
21:47.0
Part of me is hoping that Sara Duterte
21:49.0
After all of those
21:52.0
And whatever she's going through
21:53.0
That she's indeed having this kind of
21:55.0
Spiritual introspective moment
21:57.0
And we saw her pictures
21:59.0
Mountain climbing
22:04.0
At the end of the day
22:05.0
We're all human, right?
22:06.0
And I believe in redemption
22:08.0
I believe in redemption
22:09.0
Especially redemption that is anchored
22:11.0
In spirituality and scripture
22:12.0
It could be the Old Testament
22:14.0
It could be Bible
22:15.0
It could be Quran
22:16.0
It could be any of the great spiritual scriptures
22:20.0
I do believe in that
22:22.0
At the same time, of course, I'm saying
22:27.0
Actions speak louder
22:31.0
Or supposed introspection
22:32.0
So we're gonna watch out
22:33.0
But I'm just saying
22:34.0
It's interesting to see also
22:35.0
This side of Sara Duterte
22:37.0
Because we usually see
22:40.0
The more, you know
22:42.0
Digong kind of side
22:43.0
But it's good to also see her
22:47.0
For making this very strong position
22:51.0
Let's not be like that
22:58.0
Let's be haters for 6 years?
22:59.0
Let's not be like that
23:00.0
When things are being done well
23:03.0
So that we see more of that
23:04.0
And the next elections
23:07.0
Things will turn out better for you
23:09.0
You'll get the people
23:10.0
That you think really deserve to be there
23:11.0
But in the meantime
23:12.0
While there are still no elections
23:14.0
We're working on what we got
23:16.0
So we call out what's wrong
23:20.0
When things are moving
23:21.0
In the right direction
23:28.0
Speaking of the conflict
23:35.0
A little bit of an overview
23:36.0
Of the bigger geopolitical picture
23:53.0
Now let's look at
23:54.0
The broader geopolitical implications
23:56.0
Of what's happening in the Middle East
