01:13.1
Napak-unfair sa mga eskwelahan who worked so hard to achieve what credibility they have now.
01:20.5
We are very, very disappointed by what has come out.
01:24.1
Kasi we've been fighting so hard.
01:25.8
Now it's being eroded, now it's being questioned, now there is a cloud hanging over us.
01:33.2
That's painful and hurtful to us.
01:35.4
We denounce what happened over at the West Philippine Sea.
01:39.3
Pero let us also remain calm and be very careful of our pronouncements on social media.
01:47.4
Kaya also slams Cagayan representative Joseph Lara, who first flagged the increasing presence of Chinese students in the province,
01:55.8

02:03.7
Wala man lang intergovernmental intra or intergovernmental courtesy na ginawa itong congressman na ito.
02:10.7

03:10.1
Kaya tayo na-focus dito sa isyo kasi ginamit yung salitang marami.
03:14.8
Kaya nga sabi ko sa aking opinion kasi yung salitang marami, subjective yun.
03:20.1
Meron lang siguro word of caution.
03:22.3
Mainit masyado ang local politics kasi sa probinsya ng Kagayan.
03:25.8
Kaya tingnan na rin natin kung yung gamit ng mga loaded na salita o subjective na salita,
03:34.9
baka naman konektado ito sa local politics po dyan sa probinsya ng Kagayan.
03:40.1

I sense that this is probably some kind of a demonstration, again, a reminder to the Philippines that China will remain.
04:55.8
It will remain aggressive even though the Philippines is in the middle of its big exercise.
04:59.3
Maybe that China figures during Balikatan is the time to do this to make sure that the Philippines knows
05:05.8
that once the Americans go home from their exercise that China will very much still be here.
05:15.8

Last week, due to forced outages and weak capacity of power plants.
05:31.5
But the DOE says the incidents were mainly due to the high electricity demand in the country amid the extreme heat.
05:41.1
Mataas lang po talaga yung demand natin kung kaya't nakaka-stress din po yung sa system natin
05:46.5
or nakakapilit po ba na mag-produce tayo ng lahat ng kaya ng mga planta kung kaya't sa sobrang inig din,
05:53.8
eh hindi natin inaasahan.

06:56.1
Kasi sabi kong gano'n kung nasufukin sila pati yung dalawang lalaki,
07:00.4
sufukin din din. Kaya nag-iisip kami na parang may foul play na nangyari sa kanila.
07:05.1
