00:00Now, my opinion, I'm sure my colleagues here, my co-chairs,
00:06meron din silang sariling opinion. Ang opinion ko, eh kung meron ang Senate,
00:11meron din ang House, eh bakit di tala natin pag-isahin? Parang bicam.
00:15Ang dating, isang joint committee hearing, nandyan ang Kongreso, nandyan ang Senado,
00:21at nandyan yung ating investigation. I think, mas malawak, mas komprehensibo,
00:29at, siyempre, mas maraming mga intelligent questions na maitatanong
00:35ang mga membro netong committing ito. So it has to be some sort of a joint.
00:42Every time may sona, meron tayong joint session.
00:48Ito, ganun din ang gawin natin. Mas maganda, sa tingin ko.
