Super, super salamat sa inyong supporta.
02:36.5
This is really, really
02:38.4
heartening. And of course, naalala nyo naman
02:40.3
dun sa meron din tayong mga reviews
02:42.3
on some of the podcast
02:44.2
international rankings and all, including
02:46.3
reviews from Australia, among
02:48.3
other countries. So, I'm more
02:50.3
than, I feel more than
02:52.5
privileged and humbled to see na
02:54.5
meron tayong reach beyond
02:56.4
our own nation, beyond our own,
02:58.3
ah, horizons na, at ba't yung mga
03:00.3
dayuhan. Mukhang, ah, put, ah, put,
03:02.5
mga Australians, yata, ang, ano eh, hindi, hindi
03:04.5
Pilipina eh, kasi English yung, ano eh,
03:07.1
um, more basis nila
03:08.6
yung ating, um, geopolitical
03:10.6
analysis. So, I'm very, very glad to
03:12.5
see that a, a distinctly Pinoy
03:14.8
perspective, ah, is
03:16.7
gaining traction all around the world.
03:18.5
And yun talagang, guys, hope natin na
03:20.4
maging isa tayo sa mga boses
03:22.4
ng Pilipinas, boses
03:24.6
ng mga Global South at mga
03:26.5
emerging countries sa Asia.
03:28.3
Para hindi lang purong mga alam nyo na mga
03:30.3
Western countries, or hindi lang purong
03:32.1
China, diba, or India, yung mga malaking
03:34.1
bansa. Sana tayo rin, mga
03:36.1
mid, mid, mid, ah, range, mga
03:38.0
mid-sized countries, magkakaroon din tayo
03:40.1
ng boses. So, I'm glad to see na there's appreciation
03:42.3
of our geopolitical analysis.
03:44.3
Obviously, guys, kung you wanna know more
03:46.1
about my geopolitical writings and analysis,
03:48.1
ito, good news today, guys.
03:50.5
Ito na, kakalabas lang sa Nikkei
03:52.1
Asia. Ah, ito yung leading
03:54.0
business, ah, newspaper
03:56.0
sa buong Asia and the biggest in the
03:58.3
world. Lumabas yung article natin.
04:00.3
So, so, siguro, ibang kababayan
04:02.1
natin, based in Indonesia, or
04:03.9
interesado sa politika sa Indonesia, they may
04:06.1
want to take a look at this. Ito po yung
04:08.3
latest article natin ngayon sa Nikkei Asia.
04:10.4
Prabowo, ito yung newly elected
04:13.9
ng Indonesia and the outgoing defense
04:16.2
minister. Ito po yung title
04:18.0
ng article natin. Prabowo
04:20.1
followed Marcos' election playbook
04:22.2
for better or worse. So, tinignan ko
04:24.4
yung similarities, guys.
04:26.4
Similarities between elections,
04:28.3
in, in Indonesia, and
04:30.1
sa elections in, ah, in the
04:32.2
Philippines. So, unang-una,
04:36.2
the Indonesian elections as a TikTok revolution
04:38.3
dahil nakita natin
04:40.4
dyan sa, ah, Indonesian
04:42.2
ah, elections talaga gumamit ng
04:45.9
talagang mala BBM yung ginawa.
04:48.2
Kung si BBM naman ay cool uncle,
04:52.0
cut bomber jacket style na
04:54.1
BTS ganoon, si Prabowo
04:56.1
naman sa TikTok niya, ah, ang ginawa niya
04:58.2
naman, yung parang cutie,
05:00.3
lolo, tatay, ganoon po yung
05:02.1
branding sa kanya, no? So,
05:04.2
so, may mga, may mga chismis
05:05.9
dyan sa Jakarta, galing sa mga kaibigan natin
05:08.1
na mukhang pareho or may
05:09.9
overlap yung PR team ni BBM
05:12.0
at saka yung PR team ni
05:14.1
Prabowo, so, biyanto
05:15.5
ng Indonesia. So, I have to confirm that
05:18.1
myself, but this is very, very interesting.
05:20.4
But the other thing that I found very interesting
05:22.0
is parehong bansa may unit team.
05:24.2
And the composition of the unit team is almost
05:26.1
exactly the same. So, sa Pilipinas,
05:28.2
it was Marcos Jr., anak ng
05:30.2
isang dating strongman, to put it
05:32.2
mildly, at ang anak
05:34.2
ng outgoing authoritarian
05:36.3
populist or populist president, in this case
05:38.3
Sara Duterte. Pagdating naman sa
05:40.3
Indonesia, nangyari mga
05:42.2
kameta is Prabowo, so, biyanto,
05:44.3
yung dating son-in-law ng dating nilang
05:46.3
diktador, si Soharto,
05:49.1
and then ang ka-team niya yung
05:50.2
anak na bata, mas bata pa
05:52.1
kay Sara Duterte, and just like
05:54.1
Sara Duterte, very inexperienced sa
05:55.8
national politics, okay? National
05:58.2
politics. Of course, Sara had a lot
06:00.1
of experience in Davao politics, regional
06:02.0
politics, also, to a certain degree,
06:04.4
yung anak ni Jokowi,
06:05.9
and in both countries,
06:08.0
close to 60%, I think
06:09.8
58% in both countries.
06:12.0
So, the numbers are almost exactly the same,
06:14.2
right? Now, ibang usapan niyo
06:16.0
yung mga SD cards discussion and all, I'm not
06:18.0
gonna get into it, manood na lang kayo ng Buljak TV,
06:20.3
baka may makita kayo yung mga information
06:21.8
dyan, alright? But so, yun ang inaanalyze
06:24.3
natin, guys, sa Nikkei Asia, so please check
06:26.1
it out. I look at the
06:28.2
very interesting similarities between
06:30.2
Indonesia and the Philippines
06:32.1
in their latest elections on
06:34.4
on Valentine's Day, February
06:36.0
13 bang Valentine's Day? 12? Whatever.
06:42.2
look at the possibility that Prabowo,
06:44.1
just like BBM, may turn out
06:48.2
pleasant surprise, or
06:49.7
not as scary, but I think
06:52.1
I'm a little bit more skeptical even in
06:54.2
the case of Indonesia. My sense is si Prabowo,
06:56.1
mas malaki yung kanyang tendency is to push
06:58.2
for a more authoritarian system, even more
06:59.9
authoritarian than Jokowi, right?
07:02.2
So, please check this out. Kanina lang sinend
07:04.1
natin ito dun sa mga advisors na mga
07:06.0
alam nyo natin yung mga top
07:08.1
politicians sa Indonesia and all. So,
07:10.3
guys, please check this out. So,
07:12.2
yun po yung ginagawa natin dito sa
07:13.6
ating podcast, We Just Don't Discuss
07:16.0
Local Issues. As yun na naman, guys, primarily
07:18.2
ang aking expertise ay international affairs,
07:21.0
global geopolitics,
07:22.3
at economic issues. So, yun po yung
07:24.6
talagang cover natin sa
07:26.2
international news.
07:28.2
Newspapers, international publications. So,
07:30.0
pakicheck dyan yung mga interviews din natin.
07:33.6
leading media outlets. Of course,
07:36.3
hinintay ko pa rin yung link para i-share ko sa inyo.
07:38.6
Marami sa nga, especially dun sa mga YouTubers
07:40.0

07:41.9
Kasi alanganin yung internet natin. Di ko kaya nasabay

08:42.1
past in order to get inspiration
08:43.6
for a brighter future. Speaking of brighter
08:46.1
future, guys, bago natin pag-usapan
08:48.1
ng Kiboloy at Duterte
08:50.1
Sagan, ako po, ang dami naman nito.
08:54.0
kanina umaga, nakita natin na
08:56.1

tuloy-tuloy na etong subway,
09:16.0
subway project ng Japan.
09:19.9
Pilipinas, Japan, Japan, sagot sa
09:26.1
Alright, eto guys,
09:28.2
come on, tuloy-tuloy, yung ginagamit na na yan,
09:30.0
parang worm ba yan, yung parang worm sa dun,
09:32.0
ganon, yung gumaganan.
09:34.6
Ano pangalan yung technical pangalan nun?
09:36.6
O, yun, yung gumagawa ng
09:38.0
underground, diba, yung you have to
09:40.1
make a hole in the underground, diba, parang
09:41.8

09:44.1
ETSA, so maging grabing traffic.
09:46.3
So, sinabi ko nga kanina,
09:48.2
hindi ko alam ba't ginawa pa sa Friday, but
09:50.0
at least, it's a good news, guys.
09:52.1
At least, it's a good news, guys.
09:54.6
It's a good news na may gumagalaw.
09:56.4
May gumagalaw na, may gumagalaw na,
10:02.7
pangalan ko, ma'am, hindi Christian.
10:05.3
Si Christian din,
10:06.3
dinatawag na Richard minsan. Ako, dinatawag ako
10:08.4
ni Christian. Since
10:10.3
kailan kami naging interchangeable
10:12.1
ni Lodi? O, kaya talaga,
10:14.5
o. Sinisutil nyo ba kami, or ano yan?
10:16.6
Honest mistake. But anyway, balikan natin.
10:18.8
Yeah, yeah, yan. Tunnel
10:20.1
boring machine, eh. Boring kasi.
10:22.6
Uh, eto, eto, yun ang gagamitin nila
10:24.2
para gumawa ng tunnel dyan. Yeah, yeah. Tunnel
10:26.1
boring machine. Maraming salamat, guys, dun sa mga nagsabi
10:28.2
Um, yeah, so, so,
10:30.6
things are moving. I mean,
10:40.2
frustrating things sa ating bansa,
10:43.3
backwardness and katrapuhan,
10:46.3
which we're gonna discuss later on,
10:48.3
in spite of all of that, guys,
10:54.5
umaabante na tayo, guys.
10:56.5
Umaabante na tayo. Kung pumunta ka sa,
11:00.2
mega, sa Mall of Asia area,
11:02.1
makikita mo, may new completely
11:03.8
expansion area na reclaimed and all
11:06.1
na napakaganda. Yun lang, purong Pogo
11:07.9
lang kasi dyan. But hopefully one day, hindi lang parang
11:09.8
Pogo ang mga dodgy na dyan. Hopefully one day,
11:12.1
more of the Filipino middle class and new middle class
11:16.1
a place there to go. Although,
11:18.1
purong mga Chinese company nag-reclaim dyan.
11:20.4
Um, and then, of course,
11:22.0
sa infrastructure, guys, mukhang tuloy-tuloy na eto.
11:24.3
May news kanina, guys, ng
11:25.6
Lufthansa ng Alemania.
11:27.9
Ay, salamat sa pagbisita
11:29.5
ni PBM sa Germany.
11:32.2
Ay nag-agree na gagawa
11:35.5
dun sa ginagawang
11:37.4
higante, world-class,
11:39.8
multi-billion dollar airport.
11:42.4
Uh, I think this is the one in Bulacan,
11:44.0
no? If I'm not mistaken, yan. So,
11:45.8
um, so, things are moving, guys.
11:48.1
Things are moving, guys. Next thing you know,
11:49.9
pag-ising mo, maraming,
11:51.7
may bago na tayong airport, God willing,
11:53.8
na maganda, na world-class.
11:56.0
Um, mamaya, pag-tignan mo,
11:57.9
magkakalang tayo ng subway na world-class
12:00.0
among the best in the world.
12:02.1
Build by Japan to, guys.
12:04.0
Build by Japan to, yung ano naman,
12:06.3
yung design naman, at saka yung mga
12:08.2
hangers na ginagawa naman dyan
12:10.4
sa new airport natin, Germany,
12:12.1
at saka Korea naman yan.
12:13.9
So, medyo bigatin ito, mga to.
12:15.7
Hindi yung mga beshin ni Tatay Digong.
12:18.4
At speaking of which, guys,
12:20.2
bago tayo pumunta kay Kiboloy,
12:21.8
at yung impending arrest
12:24.4
ni Kiboloy, right?
12:28.6
We have to talk about China.
12:29.7
Importante ang China.
12:33.9
No, no, no, guys.
12:34.4
We have to talk about China.
12:35.3
But, I wanna say this, guys.
12:37.1
I wanna say this, okay?
12:40.0
Siyempre, bilang isang Pinoy na,
12:43.5
alam naman, I mean,
12:46.2
siyempre nakaka-frustrate
12:47.2
kung nag-abroad ka,
12:48.9
nakikita mo na talagang grabe yung
12:50.8
pag-angat ng mga kapitbahay natin
12:54.6
Grabe, over the past 5 to 10 years,
12:56.3
grabe yung growth.
12:58.6
Dati, purong motorcycle lang
12:59.9
nanikita ko sa Vietnam.
13:01.0
Ngayon, Diyos ko, purong mga,
13:02.6
I see a lot of German cars,
13:06.8
but more importantly,
13:07.7
I saw more VinFast,
13:08.9
their own national cars, no?
13:12.6
sobrang ahead na sa atin,
13:13.7
yung infrastructure nila,
13:14.7
parang Tokyo-style na double deck,
13:17.5
Of course, Japan,
13:18.1
di na-build sa kanila,
13:20.0
At yung per capita income nila
13:21.2
is almost $10,000 na,
13:22.7
so more than twice the Philippines.
13:24.7
Given na yung Malaysia-Singapore,
13:25.8
sobrang ahead na sa atin,
13:26.8
there's no point in even
13:29.0
and then Indonesia rin,
13:30.1
sobrang laki ng improvement nila.
13:33.7
in spite of lahat ng kapalpakan
13:35.3
ng mga gobyerno natin,
13:36.4
in spite of all the Tatay legacy,
13:38.1
in spite of all of that,
13:39.4
dahil sa pag-iirap natin lahat,
13:41.4
yung mga OFWs natin na Bayani,
13:43.5
yung mga middle class natin
13:44.5
dito sa Pilipinas,
13:45.5
yung ating mga minamahal na
13:48.8
lahat tayo nag-contribute dito.
13:50.2
Kasi yung ginagamit, guys,
13:51.3
yung subway na ginagawa ng Japan dito
13:55.4
Galing sa ano yan?
13:56.2
Ang kaba ng bayan
13:57.0
yung pagbayad natin dyan
13:58.1
at babayaran natin yan
13:59.4
dekada at dekada.
14:01.3
thanks naman sa Japan,
14:02.6
hindi mataas yung interest rate nila.
14:06.6
yung interest rate nila.
14:09.2
yung interest rate nila.
14:10.0
So this is a strategic agreement
14:15.1
a memorandum of agreement
14:22.1
God bless both of them.
14:23.4
Both of them have
14:25.9
both President Aquino
14:28.0
and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
14:29.4
They signed this in 2015
14:31.9
in fairness naman,
14:32.8
I'll give credit to the
14:33.6
both the Duterte administration
14:35.2
and now the BBM administration.
14:37.5
They're continuing
14:38.1
that subway project.
14:40.8
sa Department of Transportation.
14:43.0
bigyan tayo ng turo dyan
14:44.1
because I want to do some videos,
14:48.5
mga subway infrastructure projects
14:50.7
But this is not to promote
14:53.0
This is about us,
14:54.0
the Filipino people.
14:54.9
We contributed to this.
14:56.4
Now, may mga nagsabi dyan,
14:58.0
hindi mga gandang idea
14:59.4
I don't know, guys.
15:01.0
You go to any modern country,
15:03.9
may isa silang syudad
15:08.6
wala pang isang syudad,
15:09.5
wala pang subway.
15:14.3
proper feasibility studies
15:17.4
proper geological studies.
15:19.7
proper flood control studies.
15:21.7
So, hindi ito basta-basta.
15:23.9
pag Japan ang gumagawa,
15:27.4
dahil pinag-aralan talaga nila
15:30.7
At pinag-aralan talaga nila
15:31.9
ano yung pinaka-modern
15:36.2
lalabas itong subway na to,
15:37.5
baka mas maganda pa
15:38.6
yung subway natin
15:40.8
ng mga kapitbahay natin.
15:42.6
Because ours will be
15:43.4
the latest edition
15:44.6
of the Japanese subway.
15:47.0
So, I'm just saying,
15:51.0
for all of my frustration
15:52.2
about the Philippines
15:55.9
not about our people,
15:56.5
pero yung sa mga politiko natin,
15:57.8
governance natin,
16:00.9
BGC was not there.
16:02.6
matanda akong millennial.
16:07.4
purong parking lot
16:09.2
tapos may kunting mga
16:11.6
Prince of Jaipur,
16:12.2
yung mga galing na bars.
16:15.1
isang syudad na siya,
16:16.0
parang isang Dubai na siya,
16:17.8
Punta ka naman dyan sa
16:19.0
Mall of Asia area,
16:20.4
isang Macau na siya,
16:23.0
ang problema sa atin is,
16:25.6
ang laki ng growth,
16:26.6
we are still the fastest
16:27.5
growing economy na ASEAN,
16:28.8
pero hindi siya inclusive.
16:31.5
kaya dun sa lahat ng podcast,
16:32.7
ang sinasabi ko is,
16:33.6
kailangan mag-step up na si BBM,
16:35.4
kailangan mag-step up
16:36.3
yung mga ekonomista natin,
16:37.5
kailangan natin kumuha
16:38.5
ng mga investments
16:39.3
sa manufacturing,
16:43.3
ng mga trabaho na
16:44.3
nagbibigay ng magandang kabuhayan,
16:46.8
nagbibigay ng kasiguraduhan,
16:48.8
security of tenure,
16:50.0
nagbibigay ng magandang sahot,
16:51.4
para mabuild up din natin,
16:53.0
yung ating middle class.
16:55.9
sabi ni Sir Angel,
17:00.6
Kaya nga may siyensya po eh.
17:03.2
Hindi naman ng Pilipinas
17:04.1
ang tropical country
17:05.1
na may subway eh.
17:06.3
Ginagamang subway na yun
17:07.2
sa maraming tropical countries.
17:08.3
If I'm not mistaken,
17:10.8
I think they have like highways
17:12.0
na may flood control system sila.
17:16.2
kaya ng siyensya yan.
17:17.1
Kaya ng siyensya yan.
17:17.9
As long as it's done properly.
17:19.4
And as far as Japan is concerned,
17:21.7
Japan is concerned,
17:23.0
mas tiwala ako sa Japan
17:24.0
almost over any other country
17:26.3
pagdating sa public infrastructure development.
17:28.8
Because let's not forget,
17:29.7
Japan has an experience
17:31.0
of building infrastructure sa Philippines
17:32.8
more than any other foreign country
17:34.6
na big infrastructure.
17:35.8
Tignan mo sa ETSA.
17:38.1
marami tayong mga major thoroughfare.
17:40.5
Pag tinadaanan mo,
17:41.6
Japan-Philippine project.
17:42.7
Japan-Philippine project.
17:44.1
I have a lot of confidence in Japan,
17:48.6
I'm still waiting for the final project.
17:53.9
by next year, guys,
17:57.0
bubukas na some of the,
17:59.4
stations dyan sa subway,
18:03.6
and some of them will be open.
18:04.8
But if you look at the map of the subway,
18:06.6
it's gonna cover huge parts of Metro Manila.
18:08.9
And it's gonna be a game changer.
18:10.8
It's not gonna make Philippines,
18:12.8
Sweden or Denmark overnight.
18:14.9
let's get realistic about that.
18:16.4
But I think it will make a huge,
18:20.1
I look really forward.
18:22.1
Malaysia's smart,
18:25.7
so you can look at actually other ASEAN
18:27.9
and other tropical countries,
18:31.9
na meron silang mga very smart,
18:33.8
flood control systems,
18:36.2
maganda nga Japan yung gumawa.
18:38.4
hindi yung ibang bansa.
18:44.6
I've been to China.
18:45.5
I've been to China multiple times.
18:47.6
Hindi lang Hong Kong,
18:48.4
as in mainland China,
18:51.6
And I'll tell you what,
18:52.8
China has a lot of impressive things there.
18:55.0
Their infrastructure is impeccable.
18:57.6
everything was QR code nung 2015,
19:00.0
2014 pa lang pumupunta tayo dyan.
19:01.8
Halos lahat ng tao,
19:02.8
digital currency na.
19:05.3
China is a superpower sa automotive and EV industry.
19:09.3
I'll give it to them.
19:16.5
I already had experience of riding China-made subways.
19:20.3
Pero sa ibang riyon ng mundo yan.
19:25.9
may mga kaibigan tayo dyan na,
19:27.9
nung nasa Washington DC ako two weeks ago,
19:29.9
may nakausap tayo mga kaibigan dyan na,
19:32.3
na gumamit ng China-made bullet train dyan sa Laos.
19:37.6
and I'm hearing pretty okay things naman dun sa kinawa ng China
19:41.0
sa Bandung, Jakarta.
19:44.9
let's be absolutely clear.
19:46.1
I think China could be a fantastic partner for the Philippines.
19:50.2
China has a lot to offer.
19:54.4
Yung technology nila sa subway,
19:56.6
sa bullet train nila.
19:58.2
Para mas mabilis yata yung bullet train nila sa Japan pa, no?
20:01.4
my point with Japan is,
20:02.4
they started this.
20:03.4
They were really ahead of everyone else.
20:06.4
bullet trains at Italy and Europe.
20:11.4
railway systems in Germany,
20:13.5
in other countries.
20:14.5
iba pa rin ng Japan.
20:15.9
But having said that,
20:16.9
China has a lot to offer.
20:18.3
I'm all for more cooperation with China.
20:24.2
Maglev sila sa China.
20:25.4
It's really impressive.
20:26.9
It's really impressive.
20:27.7
It's exactly on time.
20:29.5
It's squeaky clean.
20:33.8
the most amazing thing there,
20:35.5
aside from their fantastic heritage and all,
20:37.9
is the China-made subway.
20:39.6
Having said that,
20:41.5
you cannot just be looking at the shiny surface.
20:47.7
high-speed railway ng Indonesia,
20:49.4
sobrang over-budget,
20:52.7
I remember three years ago,
20:54.2
you can check it on Nikkei Asia,
20:56.9
Indonesia was openly considering
20:58.7
asking Japan back
21:00.2
because binigay yung project sa China
21:04.7
President Xi Jinping,
21:10.1
he made a strategic decision
21:11.5
na yung gagawin nilang project sa Indonesia
21:13.3
ay sobrang ganda ng terms of payment.
21:15.5
I think yung interest rate nun
21:16.5
is like 1 to 2 percent lang.
21:18.5
Because napakamahalaga,
21:20.2
napakamahalaga Indonesia.
21:22.3
levitating magnetic train.
21:24.1
thank you so much,
21:26.0
to put it shortly.
21:28.5
I know how impressive China is
21:30.3
and I have a lot of admiration
21:31.5
for the Chinese civilization and all.
21:33.6
Ang sinasabi ko lang dito,
21:37.5
subway yung sa Laos,
21:40.8
bullet train po siya.
21:42.2
malit lang kasi yung VNC,
21:44.8
but it's a bullet train.
21:45.8
It cuts through their big cities and all.
21:50.3
China makes a lot of fantastic projects,
21:53.6
they're overpriced,
21:55.4
they mostly rely on Chinese technology,
21:58.6
and then you also have cases like
22:00.2
Hambantuta Airport in Sri Lanka,
22:02.2
known as the MTS Airport on,
22:04.4
ang gandang airport,
22:07.2
hindi siya based sa proper economic feasibility study,
22:12.7
what I'm saying is that I'm,
22:13.9
I'm okay with dealing with China,
22:17.5
hindi lang po nung China,
22:21.0
may technology sharing,
22:23.0
technology transfer,
22:24.5
provided may input din ng Philippines sa engineering,
22:29.0
China wants to also,
22:30.0
China has been also trying to build,
22:34.3
i-connect nila sa Thailand,
22:36.4
i-connect nila sa Malaysia,
22:38.3
and then Singapore,
22:41.0
yung Thailand kasi hindi pumapayag,
22:43.0
na punong China lang yung worker,
22:44.7
China yung technology and engineering,
22:46.1
they want also Thai input.
22:48.8
we can learn something,
22:49.5
also from Thailand.
22:50.6
I'm all for cooperating with China to build it,
22:53.3
but it has to make,
22:54.2
we have to make sure it's really mutually beneficial,
22:56.4
hindi lang yung mga Chinese company nagbe-benefit,
22:59.7
it's made under proper,
23:02.4
proper economic assessment,
23:03.9
meaning yung interest rates,
23:05.6
meaning yung terms of payment,
23:07.8
meaning yung terms of contract,
23:10.6
walang wishy-washy,
23:12.3
walang dodgy-dodgy,
23:15.4
yung mga ganyang kalukuan,
23:16.3
Because we had many bad experiences with China and the Philippines,
23:18.7
at kasalanan din ng mga,
23:21.6
kasalanan din ng mga treasonous na tao dyan.
23:25.1
speaking of dealing with China,
23:26.7
speaking of dealing with China,
23:29.9
I was just scrolling through things,
23:33.5
lumalabas na ngayon guys,
23:34.8
before natin pag-usapan si Kibo Lloyd,
23:36.3
because as we talk,
23:37.9
we're waiting for even more updates on this.
23:41.6
Interestingly guys,
23:42.8
very interestingly,
23:44.9
there is now a very,
23:50.5
dito ukol sa umano'y secret deal ni Digong with China sa West Philippine Sea.
24:03.8
Seryoso po ito dahil this has huge implications.
24:07.9
see words like the T word could be used.
24:10.4
And interestingly,
24:11.5
no less than Erwin Tulfo,
24:13.3
who's now number one in service to be the next senator,
24:17.1
the Tulfos are now really in ascendancy.
24:19.5
Meron bang kasunduan?
24:21.7
came out very strongly and said,
24:25.7
dapat magkakaroon ng clarification si Digong,
24:28.7
ano ba talaga itong sinasabi ng China,
24:30.7
dahil may announcement ng China three days ago,
24:32.3
earlier this week na,
24:33.4
meron daw silang kasunduan with Digong,
24:38.5
yung position natin sa Yung Insyol.
24:41.7
alam nyo na this,
24:42.4
alam nyo na this.
24:43.2
so ito yung statement ni,
24:47.1
the Tulfos are very good friend,
24:51.1
Especially Erwin,
24:52.3
he has a very good relationship,
24:53.8
with the Dutertes back in the day.
25:01.0
maging administration po na ito.
25:05.1
maganda po siguro,
25:06.2
the former president will answer that,
25:08.6
kung meron bang kasunduan.
25:14.6
wala din na nila yung Yung Insyol na yan.
25:17.9
it will be better,
25:19.3
the right person to ask the question,
25:20.2
Erwin Tulfo guys to,
25:21.1
hindi Rocky Tulfo.
25:22.4
is yung dating pangunin.
25:31.2
maging administration po na ito.
25:35.2
maganda po siguro,
25:36.4
the former president will answer that,
25:38.7
kung meron bang kasunduan.
25:44.8
wala din na nila yung Yung Insyol na yan.
25:48.1
it will be better,
25:48.9
and the right person to ask that question and answer it is yung dating pangunin.
25:56.2
wala kami alam dyan,
25:57.5
nag-ugas kamay na sila.
25:59.1
At interesting is sinabi na,
26:00.2
even the current administration,
26:01.8
meaning administration ni BBM,
26:03.9
walang informasyon tukol dito.
26:09.8
this looks like a secret deal,
26:12.2
na hindi na-inform yung incoming administration.
26:15.3
Kasi remember guys,
26:16.8
pag nanalang isang bagong administration,
26:17.9
pag nanalang isang bagong administration,
26:18.9
mayroon transition period.
26:21.2
At doon sa transition period,
26:22.7
dapat binibrief yung incoming administration,
26:25.2
hindi lang incoming president,
26:26.3
doon sa lahat ng mga major deals.
26:28.5
Especially yung mga secret,
26:30.0
not naman secret,
26:30.8
but confidential deals
26:32.4
na ginagawa ng isang,
26:34.4
na ginawa ng isang outgoing president
26:36.0
that will fall within the jurisdiction and mandate of an incoming president.
26:39.9
Especially in matters concerning, guys,
26:42.1
matters concerning national security and foreign policy.
26:46.3
ito yung area kung saan,
26:47.3
ang laki ng purview,
26:48.9
and ang laki ng room for manoeuvre ng presidente.
26:54.0
earlier this week,
26:55.2
finally itong China
26:58.8
na sino ang tinutukoy nila
27:03.2
nung sinabi nila na meron silang agreement
27:05.6
with an ex-Filipino president administration
27:08.6
na dapat ang Pilipinas hindi i-fortify
27:11.6
yung ating position
27:13.1
dyan sa Ayunginsol.
27:16.3
yung BRP siya era madre,
27:19.8
medyo eyesore na,
27:20.7
medyo grabe na yan.
27:21.8
nagfa-fall apart na yan.
27:23.7
nangako ang Marcos administration at ating sandatan lakas
27:28.3
na palakasin nila ang position natin dyan,
27:30.9
pagandahin nila yung base natin dyan,
27:32.6
yung facilities natin dyan.
27:34.0
So, immediately nag-react ng China na bawal po yan
27:36.3
or hindi ito tugma dun sa kanilang kasunduan
27:41.0
sa isang dating administration.
27:43.2
Hindi nila na-clarify.
27:44.7
So, kaya naalala nyo guys,
27:46.0
immediately lumabas si JBRC ito
27:48.9
at lumabas si Jinggoy Estrada
27:52.3
at sinabi nila hindi ito yung tatay nila
27:54.3
because remember it was Erap Estrada.
27:56.7
I mean, for all of his huge faults,
27:58.7
I'm definitely not a fan of Erap.
28:00.7
Erap was the one who decided na
28:03.2
i-ram na natin itong BRP siya era madre,
28:05.2
i-park na natin dyan
28:06.6
para wala na magyabang-yabang dyan.
28:08.2
At least naisip ni Erap yan, diba?
28:10.2
For all of his frailties and shortcomings and all.
28:15.2
so nag-clarify immediately ang mga Estrada brothers,
28:18.7
the good one and the,
28:19.9
well, not the good one,
28:20.9
how should I put it, diba?
28:22.9
Na hindi si Erap Estrada ang nag-agree sa China
28:26.4
na hindi palakasin yung position ng Pilipinas
28:29.2
dyan sa West Philippines,
28:30.2
particularly sa Ayunginsol.
28:31.9
So, immediately nag-fall ang suspicion
28:34.5
who's the next president,
28:35.7
not Aquino, obviously,
28:37.9
kay President Arroyo.
28:39.2
Because kung maalala nyo,
28:40.4
under President Arroyo,
28:41.4
we had a number of big agreements with China,
28:43.9
kasama dyan yung NBNZT na talagang sangkot sa,
28:47.5
yan na right and left corruption cases, no?
28:50.5
Kasama din dyan yung North Railway project na
28:54.5
na deemed unconstitutional by the Philippine Supreme Court later on
28:58.5
dahil ito ay nag-violate ng bidding procedures.
29:02.0
So dodgy, corrupt, problematic.
29:04.5
But, most importantly,
29:06.5
si Arroyo ay nagsign ng Joint Maritime Seismic Undertaking sa West Philippine Sea
29:11.5
kung saan ang Pilipinas, Vietnam, at China
29:14.5
ay nag-agree na jointly mag-explore
29:17.2
sila ng mga oil and gas resources dyan
29:19.2
sa mga parte ng West Philippine Sea.
29:21.2
And that agreement had clauses,
29:24.2
may mga parte dyan, may mga provision dyan,
29:26.2
na confidentiality.
29:27.7
Na dapat hindi ito ma-scrutinize
29:29.7
ng mga ibang stakeholders,
29:31.2
including ibang branches of the Philippine State.
29:33.2
That was highly problematic.
29:34.7
And that's why eventually the JMSU was taken to the Supreme Court
29:37.7
and last year may ruling na unconstitutional yung JMSU na ginawa ni Arroyo.
29:42.7
So immediately, immediately,
29:45.2
that raised suspicion na baka ito nyo,
29:47.2
yung sinasabi ng China na hindi palakasing yung position ng Pilipinas
29:50.2
ay sa ilalim ni Arroyo.
29:52.2
Dahil si ERAP ay yung medyo siga-siga,
29:55.2
si Arroyo ay napaka-friendly sa China,
29:57.2
so baka si Arroyo yun.
29:58.2
But President Arroyo also made it clear na hindi siya yun.
30:01.2
Yung mga kanyang opisyalis dati nandito pa rin,
30:04.7
nag-clarify na hindi sila yan.
30:06.7
So the suspicion would fall naturally on Digong.
30:11.2
But the Digong camp have been denying this for quite some time
30:14.2
until binooking sila ng China mismo.
30:17.2
So ngayon, ito yung news.
30:18.2
Inis na inis ang Department of Foreign Affairs of Philippines,
30:21.2
inis na inis ang administrasyon natin,
30:25.2
inis na inis na rin ang Kongreso
30:29.2
at ang ating mga otoridad sa iba't ibang branches of the government
30:34.2
dahil mukhang hindi sila informed.
30:37.2
As you could hear from Erwin Tulfo,
30:40.2
they're not privy to the details of this deal, whatever deal,
30:45.2
this secret deal,
30:46.2
that China has been talking about.
30:50.2
Very suspicious too, guys.
30:52.2
What's going on here?
30:53.2
So let me just read itong news and analysis.
31:03.2
So galit na galit ang Department of Foreign Affairs
31:05.2
kasi ang China po ay nagbubuking ng potentially sensitive details
31:10.2
ukol sa mga negosyasyon sila with the Philippines in the past.
31:14.2
Of course, ginagawa ng China yan.
31:15.2
For propaganda reasons,
31:16.2
para maging mukha sila pa yung tama,
31:18.2
sila pang victim.
31:19.2
Gano'n naman parati,
31:20.2
mga kung sinong bully,
31:22.2
siya pang victim.
31:26.2
So ang kiniklaim ng China is wala silang maling ginagawa.
31:28.2
Yung ginagawa lang nila is they're just implementing
31:32.2
yung kanilang kasunduan with the Duterte administration.
31:38.2
Beijing had been operating on a different reality.
31:40.2
Ito yung ukol sa report na ito.
31:41.2
I'll post it later.
31:42.2
Not just on how they see features in the West Philippines,
31:44.2
or the status of relations between the Philippines and not.
31:47.2
Is that Beijing had wanted,
31:49.2
some understanding and acquiescence
31:51.2
in trying to negotiate with the Philippines
31:53.2
under Duterte administration.
31:55.2
Ito ay ayon sa isang report sa Manila Times,
31:57.2
quoting a Chinese official.
32:00.2
Ayon sa report na ito,
32:01.2
China wanted the Philippines to,
32:03.2
commit not to transport large-scale building materials
32:06.2
to reinforce the Sierra Madre.
32:08.2
Ito yung sinasabi ko kanina,
32:09.2
na ayon sa China,
32:10.2
nangako ang Duterte administration,
32:12.2
na hindi nila palakas.
32:13.2
Na hindi nila palakasin yung ating posisyon
32:15.2
dyan sa Ayunginsol,
32:16.2
even if itong BRP Sierra Madre ay bumibigay na.
32:20.2
I mean, tignan na naman ang itsura ng BRP Sierra Madre.
32:23.2
Nagkaroon tayo ng isang malaking vlog dyan
32:25.2
na sobrang nakaka-frustrate na naman.
32:27.2
Ganyan na kalagayan.
32:28.2
In fairness naman,
32:29.2
at least may effort,
32:31.2
at least naman may effort
32:32.2
ng Skaslukwen administration
32:34.2
na medyo ayus-ayusin ito.
32:35.2
At kaya naman gawin yan.
32:37.2
I talk to people who know what they're talking about.
32:40.2
pwede naman ayusin yan
32:41.2
ng maayos-ayos lang.
32:44.2
huwag din tayo maingay.
32:47.2
ang sinasabi ng channel,
32:48.2
ay, wala kayong karapatan mag-ayos yan.
32:50.2
Kasi nangako si Digong eh.
32:51.2
Nangako yung Digong administration
32:53.2
na hindi nyo ayusin yan.
32:56.2
Hintayin nyo lang, gigiba yan.
32:59.2
magbabardagulan na tayo dyan.
33:00.2
Parang crazy, diba?
33:03.2
pakita ko lang sa inyo
33:04.2
yung mga hindi nakakita.
33:05.2
Pwede naman i-google din yan.
33:07.2
Napaka grabe, diba?
33:09.2
yung situation sa BRP Sierra Madre.
33:11.2
Talagang bibigay na yan.
33:12.2
In fact, may mga eksperto nagsabi.
33:14.2
May mga na-interview tayo dati na
33:19.2
shock sila na hanggang ngayon
33:20.2
andun pa rin ito.
33:22.2
So, hindi nila naman ko dahil sa pandemic yan.
33:24.2
So, guys, eto yung itsura, diba?
33:26.2
Eto yung itsura, guys.
33:28.2
Kitang-kita nyo talaga na
33:31.2
hopeless case yan.
33:32.2
If you leave it to the elements,
33:34.2
it will be overtaken by the elements.
33:36.2
Diba? Grabe, diba?
33:37.2
Yan yun naman, guys, diba?
33:38.2
Grabe, grabe yung itsura, diba?
33:39.2
Grabe yung itsura.
33:41.2
actually, the expectation was 2-3 years ago.
33:43.2
Wala na, gigiba na yan.
33:45.2
So, mapipilitan na tayo mag-exit dyan.
33:47.2
And then, pwede na pumasok ang China.
33:49.2
So, siguro yun ang calculation ng China
33:52.2
tuterte pa rin yung Presidente natin.
33:54.2
Akala nila si BBM ay
33:56.2
magtututa-tuta lang.
33:58.2
Hindi nangyari yung in-expect nila.
34:01.2
Inis na inis sila ngayon.
34:03.2
So, ang sinasabi nila,
34:04.2
oh, bakit, bakit, bakit?
34:07.2
Hindi kayo katulad na yan.
34:09.2
may nakita na naman silang bakanteng lupa dyan.
34:11.2
Baka naman, pwede natin gawin na nga yan.
34:14.2
Sabi ng China, bakit?
34:16.2
Diba, sabi niya sa amin na hindi nangyarisin yan.
34:19.2
Kinaka-rent tayo ng China ngayon.
34:21.2
Kinaka-rent tayo ng China ngayon.
34:23.2
So, malaking issue yan, guys.
34:24.2
So, kung totoo na talaga may agreement na gano'n ni Duterte
34:29.2
and binubuking na sila ng China ngayon
34:31.2
at base dito sa report ng Manila Times,
34:38.2
kailangan natin tignan na mabuti yan
34:42.2
dodgy, dodgy stuff happen.
34:45.2
Baka naman, may bakanteng gano'n.
34:48.2
Alam nyo na, alam nyo na.
34:50.2
huwag na natin itag.
34:53.2
Department of Foreign Affairs,
34:55.2
nung earlier this week, sinabi nila,
34:58.2
sinabi nila earlier this week na,
35:01.2
eto, eto, eto, hindi maayos yung ganyan start.
35:06.2
DFA wishes to underscore
35:08.2
that the Philippines is approaching this fund,
35:10.2
this confidential negotiations.
35:14.2
So, bakit binubuking ng China yan?
35:16.2
Eh, confidential dapat yan, diba?
35:19.2
And then, para sa akin nga, hindi lang yan.
35:22.2
Wait lang, may ginawa si Digong na hindi niya sinasabi sa susunod na administration.
35:25.2
So, eto sabi nila,
35:27.2
these are confidential negotiations with utmost sincerity and good faith.
35:30.2
We were therefore surprised by China's disclosure
35:33.2
of sensitive details of our bilateral discussions.
35:36.2
One proposal raised by Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Sun Weidong
35:40.2
back in March 2023 meant,
35:43.2
actions that would be deemed as acquiescence
35:45.2
or recognition of China's control and administrative,
35:47.2
administration over the Ayungin Shield as a Chinese,
35:50.2
Chinese territory.
35:52.2
So, meron daw gentleman's agreement.
35:55.2
So, medyo booking na siguro hindi talaga ba ba involved.
35:58.2
As Ayungin Shield is part of the Exclusive Organization of the Philippines,
36:01.2
the proposal of China could not be considered by the Philippines
36:03.2
without violating the Philippine Constitution.
36:04.2
Or international law ayon sa DFA.
36:07.2
So, sabi nila, anong pinagsasabing yung gentleman's agreement?
36:11.2
Hindi naman ito yung mga usapang sa tambay-kanto.
36:14.2
O pare, ako nang bahala dyan sa ano.
36:16.2
O pare, sige ikaw na.
36:17.2
Hindi pwedeng ganon.
36:19.2
Ang pinag-usapan natin dito guys ay national interest.
36:22.2
Teritorya ng bansa natin.
36:24.2
Seryosong bagay po ang pinag-usapan natin.
36:27.2
Hindi pwede gentleman's agreement, gentleman's agreement na yan.
36:30.2
So, ayon sa DFA sa Pilipinas,
36:32.2
while a few proposals were deemed somewhat workable,
36:35.2
many of the remaining Chinese proposals were determined
36:37.2
after careful study, scrutiny, and deliberation within the Philippine government
36:40.2
to be contrary to our national interest.
36:43.2
Meaning, kung nag-agree ka sa mga proposal ng China na yan,
36:47.2
then, essentially, you're violating the Philippine national interest.
36:51.2
May tinatawag dyan, I think, treason, to put it nicely,
36:56.2
if you agree to those kinds of agreements.
37:00.2
we have to still hear from the Duterte camp
37:05.2
kung nag-agree talaga sila dito
37:07.2
or yung China, since nagbu-booking na naman sila
37:09.2
ng mga kalukuan na ginagawa nila dati,
37:12.2
eh di pakita nila ng China kung nag-sign ang mga Duterte administration officials
37:17.2
dito sa agreement na yan.
37:19.2
Basta ang DFA ay naghugas kamay at sinabi nila,
37:21.2
nag-negotiate kami, nag-usap kami,
37:23.2
pero hindi kami nag-agree dun sa mga sinisabi nilang proposal.
37:26.2
Kasi hindi ito tugma sa interest ng ating bayan.
37:29.2
Eto eh, to put it nicely, they should have said it.
37:31.2
This is treasonous, the way if we did that.
37:33.2
Right? You're essentially giving up the Philippine claim in the area.
37:36.2
Remember, ang ngayong insyo po ay hindi teritory.
37:38.2
It's just a low tide elevation that falls within our continental shelf
37:42.2
and exclusive economic zone.
37:43.2
So, parang extension din siya ng ating teritory in that sense.
37:46.2
So, this is a very, very interesting development, mga kameta.
37:49.2
So, that's why I'm saying,
37:52.2
you cannot look at the kibuloy issue,
37:56.2
so now we're transitioning here,
