00:00On the lighter side, based on your father and your impeachment, how are you managing everything or how do you plan for now?

00:13Yes, the impeachment is okay because before the extraordinary rendition happened, the impeachment team was already formed.

00:26On that point, they are okay and they are preparing for trial.

00:31But here in the ICC, the team is not yet formed because we're waiting for papers from other lawyers.

00:38So that's what I need to finish.

00:42And then I need to introduce the lawyer in charge for CID inside and the outside world to my siblings and to Shelly Tok

00:55so that I can go back to the Philippines and come here when I need to.

01:02VP?

01:03None ma'am. There are no Filipino lawyers yet.

01:08They are still working on the shortlist.
