00:00Once again, the Diomonoy Cudeta has become a topic of discussion in the Senate.
00:05But some Senators immediately denied it.
00:08That's what Professor Antonio Contreras will discuss in Punto de Vista, Professor.
00:19Thank you very much, Dian, and good morning to you there, in the studio.
00:24The Senators who have a plan to impeach Senator President Chris Escudero have already denied it.
00:31And this was even denied by the President of the Senate, Senator Escudero.
00:39And even though, according to the rumors, he had plans to replace Senator Gingo Estrada, who is now the Senate President.
00:50If we can remember, four months ago, in May, there was a Cudeta in the Senate,
00:57where they replaced Senator Mig Soliri as President with Senator Chris Escudero.
01:03Even though Senator Gingo Estrada denied that he was with Diomonoy in this plan,
01:10he did not deny it. Instead, he confirmed that he heard that he had plans about two to three months ago.
01:19Let's repeat, the Senate is a collegial body, and they have the right to replace their President.
01:27In fact, because they are only 23 now, because Senator Angarang is now the Deputy Secretary,
01:33they only need 12 Senators.
01:36Because before, they always needed 13, because they are now 24.
01:4023, they only need 12 Senators to replace Senator Escudero.
01:46But what Senator Gingo Estrada said is right.
01:48It is not good to see that they are being replaced by their President,
01:53because this shows instability.
01:55It is like, what is happening here?
01:58If I am one of the Senators, because Senator Gingo Estrada confirmed, according to the rumors,
02:04that he has plans, if I am one of them, they should just fix their jobs.
02:08There are many laws that need to be passed.
02:13In fact, the National Land Use Act, which the House of Representatives repeatedly passed,
02:19which is being passed by them,
02:21the Sustainable Forest Management Act,
02:24which is an act that is close to my heart because I am also in the forestry sector,
02:29well, it has been passed several times already,
02:32several Congresses have passed it,
02:33that as long as you pass it to the House of Representatives,
02:36the Senate will be the one to pass it.
02:39So there are many laws that need to be passed,
02:41like the House passed the divorce bill,
02:44what will the Senate do about that?
02:47That is what they are aiming for.
02:49It is wrong.
02:51They have a lot of work, that is what they are aiming for.
02:53Senator Legarda said, one of the rumors that was repeated,
02:58that Senator Villar brought it and they objected to it,
03:01and that is another thing they are aiming for now.
03:03They will reflect on whether what they are doing in their Senate hearings is right.
03:08I repeated, they have the right to conduct hearings in native legislation
03:12and to cite contempt,
03:14but they should fix what they are doing.
03:17Like, they should avoid the questions that are not very clear
03:22about the purpose of hearing in native legislation.
03:26And we also heard a Senator who said,
03:29that this is, he said to Alice Goyang,
03:32to prove your innocence,
03:33so that you can prove that you were wrong.
03:36Shouldn't what we are proving be a crime
03:39and not the innocence that we are going to prove?
03:41And wait a minute, in native legislation,
03:44you don't need to have lines like innocence, guilty.
03:48What we are looking for here is the truth.
03:50And we are not asking for people to be convicted
03:53or to be declared as guilty or innocent of something.
03:58That is not the intent.
04:00And that is not only in the Senate, that is also in the House.
04:02So, instead of having Senate presidents replace you,
04:09because you are being paid by the State,
04:12you should fix your job,
04:13it's right, it's good,
04:15because you said that you have a lot to do.
04:18And fix your hearings in native legislation,
04:22because I heard complaints,
04:25people are getting annoyed
04:27because of these hearings in native legislation.
04:30Let's not wait for them to lose their trust
04:33and they will not be able to do their job.
04:35That is the process.
04:37That is my point of view this morning.
04:39Thank you very much.
04:40And go back to your studio, Dayan.
