00:21Witness, Ma'am Gonzales.
00:23In a letter to Senate President Chris Escudero, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin reminded
00:33before the Senate heard about the arrest of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:37Cabinet Members will use their Executive Privilege
00:42as part of the EO464 of the Arroyo Administration.
00:47Under this, the President needs to be allowed to speak in front of officials in Congress.
00:52It was used only once or twice,
00:55depending on the question posed by Senator Aimee Marcos.
00:59In the clout of the Executive Privilege,
01:01all confidential and classified information
01:04that the official knows about his position,
01:06including the senior officials of the Executive,
01:09the generals and flag officers of the AFP,
01:11police generals, and national security officials.
01:15This is not a reason not to go and get involved.
01:18This is the right that is given to them to refuse to answer
01:21if they can invoke the Executive Privilege
01:24in a question that can give details of the conversation of Cabinet Members and the President.
01:31According to Escudero,
01:32Senator Aimee Marcos asked the Chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
01:36if he wanted to attend the hearing.
01:38In the past few days,
01:39it was noticed that President Bongbong Marcos did not mention
01:43his sister, Senator Aimee, in the campaigns.
01:46Let's not make this an alliance of 10 or 11 people,
01:5111 candidates,
01:53who are running as Senators,
01:55who are part of the alliance.
01:57Malacanang asked about this earlier.
01:59What he said to us is clear.
02:04Let's just wait for the next rallies
02:06to find out what he really meant by saying no.
02:09Did Senator Aimee and PBBMP have a chance to talk?
02:15According to Senator Aimee,
02:16the President is not talking to her yet.
02:18This weekend, the media asked the Senator
02:21if he is still part of the alliance.
02:23I don't know. I haven't asked yet.
02:24You have not withdrawn from the alliance?
02:26No, no, no. Action taken.
02:28In the question of whether Senator Marcos will still attend
02:31the campaign rallies of the alliance.
02:33Let me explain.
02:34I went to the hearing
02:36without planning to ruin the administration.
02:41I have no plans.
02:43I really asked.
02:45Honestly, I was investigating.
02:48The rally that I was not mentioned,
02:51it's okay.
02:52Let's just endure. We have nothing to do.
02:55I just told Paul
02:57that he might go home
03:00because of the fight between the two sides.
03:03I don't want to be dragged.
03:04For GMA Integrated News,
03:06I am Mav Gonzalez, your witness.
03:10My fellow countrymen,
03:11be the first to witness.
