00:36just like the demolition of the informal settlers where PCUP is working to make sure that everyone's rights are protected.
00:47Before we can give clearance, we have a pre-demolition conference.
00:54And during the demolition conference, the sheriff is there, the local government unit is there, the DILG is there,
01:03and we will talk to them about the rights of the informal settlers who already have orders.
01:13So, we are placing the conditions.
01:16Their agency does not do the same compared to the services provided by DSWD, DOH, and others.
01:22We have assurances that there is no duplication because we are helping.
01:27Their department is making sure that it is being implemented because we are helping.
01:40We are really focused on helping.

01:55In accordance with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s orders,
01:58this year, PCUP will continue to focus on the services of various agencies
02:02to ensure that the assistance to those in need will reach them.
