00:00President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. led the distribution of more than P178 million pesos worth of frozen mackerels to residents of Tondo, Manila.

00:12Kenneth Paciente will be back.

00:17In the pursuit of food security,

00:22President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. led the distribution of more than P178 million pesos worth of frozen mackerels to residents of Tondo, Manila.

00:31Hundreds of families in Baseco Compounds, Manila received two kilograms of mackerels.

00:37According to the Department of Agriculture and our customs,

00:42they saw that the documents were incomplete and the payment was incomplete.

00:47That's why the government started it.

00:52That's how it happened.

00:55But, as you can see, it's still in the freezer.

01:00It's a waste. It's a terrible waste.

01:06There's a lot of food that can be eaten.

01:09We can eat a lot of food.

01:14That's why we're distributing it to you,

01:19so that you can help, so that you can sell fish.

01:23This is a big help to my family, sir.

01:26We're thankful that if not for this fish, my children wouldn't be happy.

01:35It's a big help. It's important.

01:37Because it's hard to make money.

01:41The President insisted that the government should tighten the security

01:45to prevent smuggling of any product.

01:48And if such incidents happen again,

01:51that can produce any product and agricultural products,

01:55he will definitely send them to the people.

01:58Because of the Anti-Agricultural Economic Sabotage Act.

02:01What they do is, they smuggle it in,

02:05then they'll close it.

02:06They won't let it out.

02:08They'll wait until the price goes up.

02:10If the price goes up, they'll buy it.

02:13That's why we're avoiding it.

02:16Because the victims are the people,

02:18the common people.

02:20That's why we won't allow such a system to continue.

02:26Before the distribution, the Executive Board

02:29inspected the container vans that contained the smuggled fish.

02:34Here, the President gave a directive to the government agencies

02:38to tighten the Anti-Agricultural Economic Sabotage Act.

02:43Especially the smugglers that smuggle in the market in the Philippines.

02:47This is the chain that we need to break.

02:54This is the first case under the new law

02:59of the Anti-Agricultural Economic Sabotage Act.

03:04So, I've spoken to our Bureau of Customs,

03:11I've spoken to the Department of Agriculture,

03:13and we have to keep going.

03:14We need to strengthen this.

03:16The smugglers from the 21 containers

03:20that were smuggled in the country,

03:22but were stopped by the Bureau of Customs

03:24because of the lack of documents.

03:26In particular, the sanitary and phytosanitary import clearance

03:29from the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources.

03:32Aside from the distribution today,

03:34the smugglers were also allowed to be distributed

03:36to other parts of the NCR,

03:38as well as to Regions 3 and 4A,

03:40where 150,000 families are expected to benefit from the whole.

03:45In September, the frozen smugglers were in Wata,

03:47and in October, they passed the inspection,

03:50and it was discovered that they were safe

03:52for human consumption.

03:55Kenneth Paciente,

03:57for Pambansang TV in Bago, Philippines.
