00:00Senator Risa Ontiveros was only asking for a brief description of the book on which the

00:05government was being asked to spend 10 million pesos.

00:08But instead of a direct answer, Vice President Sara Duterte accuses Ontiveros of politicizing

00:13the hearing for the proposed 2025 national budget.

00:17This is an example of politicizing the budget hearing through the questions of a senator.

00:24Budget hearing po ito, di po lahat about you, pero po ito ng taong baya.

00:29When Ontiveros insisted on her question, Duterte talked about how Ontiveros sought her help

00:34to win votes in Mindanao when she ran for senator in 2016.

00:38To rein in the proceedings, Panel Chief Senator Grace Poe urged Duterte to answer Ontiveros'

00:42question.

00:43Duterte then said the book's title was self-explanatory.

00:47Titled Isang Kaibigan, the children's book tells the story of an owl who lost his friends

00:51when a storm damaged his home.

00:54The author of the book is Duterte.

At OVP budget hearing, Hontiveros reminds Sara: ‘Not everything’s about you’
