00:00Some groups of farmers petitioned to repeal the order of President Bongbong Marcos to lower the tariff on rice.
00:08Mark Salazar witnessed it.
00:13The Supreme Court of the groups of farmers brought their opposition to Executive Order 62 of President Bongbong Marcos.
00:22It was ordered to lower the tariff on imported rice by 15% from 35% in the hope of lowering the price of rice.
00:31This is a violation of Constitutional Provision protecting our farmers against unfair competition
00:38because if imported products go bad, our farmers will really die.
00:44They asked the court to repeal the Executive Order that it did not consult them.
00:51The Senate Committee on Agriculture also agreed to it.
00:56The tariff commission's public hearings did not include in the transcript
01:01the recommendation to lower the tariff on imported rice.
01:05It did not come out in March.
01:07The opposition said it in September.
01:12Where did the 15% come from?
01:14The petitioner is the EDG.
01:16Yes, so it's the EDG.
01:18It means that EDG is not a stakeholder. EDG is a part of...
01:23What is EDG?
01:25Economic Development Group.
01:26A senator said that the tariff on imported rice should be lowered when there is no or low rice instead of the whole year until 2028.
01:35It's variable. It's not fixed.
01:3715% for four years, Madam Chair.
01:40Every four months, there will be a review.
01:42We have Section 1608 of the CMTA that can be petitioned to modify the tariff
01:50because 2024 to 2028 is not the right time.
01:56The Department of Agriculture is concerned about the effect of stopping the EO62 if given.
02:04It will cause delay in the importation of our private importers.
02:10Even if the Supreme Court has not issued a decision against the EO62,
02:15it will have a negative effect on the decision of the importers and on the inventory of rice.
02:22The National Economic Development Authority, or NEDA, said that it is a respondent to the petition.
02:27They will wait for the harvesters even though they are still waiting for a copy of their petition.
02:33But they respect the legal process and will respond to the petition through the Solicitor General.
02:40For GMA Integrated News, I am Mark Salazar, your witness.
02:48Ain't no mountain high enough is the motto of a government worker slash mountaineer in Pampanga.
02:54He achieved climbing mountains even though his feet look different.
03:00Meet Chris Zuniga of GMA Regional TV.
03:31Instead of me getting tired while hiking, I don't want to rest.
03:37It's not just the mountains he climbed that he conquered.
03:41It's also his condition since he was born.
03:44He has clubfoot.
03:46The position of his feet means that he is permanently crippled.
03:50At first, it was hard, sir.
03:52But as time went by,
03:56my body got stronger.
03:58My resistance and stamina got stronger.
04:01Because of his strong mind and strong body, Bob did not give up.
04:07Our guide was very happy because my fighting spirit, even though my feet were shaking,
04:13I was still able to climb.
04:15And in every climb, he formed new companions.
04:19Even though we don't know each other,
04:21we became friends and helped each other.
04:26They say, the best view comes after the hardest climb.
04:31And for Bob, there is no fatigue and it's obvious that in return,
04:36nature is very precious.
04:38You won't go to a beautiful place if you don't climb mountains.
04:43You won't get tired because you need to see the beauty of nature.
04:49For GMA Integrated News, I am Chris Uniga of GMA Regional TV, your witness.
