00:00Okay, so muli, magandang araw sa ating mga viewers, tiktokers, facebookers.

00:12Si Kiko pa ngayon nito, we decided na magkaroon ng ganitong tiktok and facebook live.

00:22We decided to go live kasi yung mga issues sa halalan na very concerning.

00:27And sa atin, kapansin-pansin at maliwano na recently, actually hindi recently, but more so viciously,

00:41we have been subjected to trolling, bashing in an organized and orchestrated way.

00:49Na clearly, hindi ito mga online, organic audiences, kung hindi, most likely, daasi sa ating nakikita,

01:03orchestrated, well-funded, whole machinery para sirahan ang ating kapitid.

01:12Ano ang nangyari, one of the latest?

01:16Tayo po ay naroon sa Pampanga, sa San Luis, Pampanga, sa farm ni Idol Romeo Katakutan.

01:27At kami po ay nagkaroon ng food blog.

01:31Sa totoo lang, dalawang taon na po ako nagpo-food blog, muna noong 2022.

01:37Kaya kung dun sa mga matagal na tayong pinapanood, hindi bahago sa atin ang food blog, number one.

01:45Number two, yung ating naging programa, Hello Pagkain.

01:49Kaya pagdating sa usapin ng material at content, talagang hinupangkain ang ating kinapakita.

01:56Kaya hindi na ito bago.

01:58Nagtataka lang kami na biglang dito, para bagang kahapon lang ako nag-food blog,

02:04at kahapon lang ako gumamit ng kamay para kumain.

02:08Sa Pampanga pa, yung nangyari,

02:11pero ang aming kasing nakaugalian ng tatay ko, ang turo sa amin,

02:19na kinuro ko rin sa ating mga anak,

02:21ay kumain ng kanin na may gatas ng kalabaw at may asin.

02:27So yun ang ginawa namin.

02:29Siyempre, nasa Pampanga ka rin.

02:30At ginawa ni Idol Romeo,

02:35ibinigay sa atin yung kaldero dahil,

02:38takip ng kaldero dahil na yung gatas ng kalabaw,

02:41eh pag nilagay mo itong sa banana leaf,

02:45sa dahon ng sabi,

02:46yung tatalat.

02:48So yun,

02:49kumain tayo ng gatas ng kalabaw na may asin at kalin

02:53sa takip ng kalabaw.

02:56And,

02:58ano namin yan?

02:59Core memory namin ng bata kami.

03:02When we were growing up,

03:03kasi Kapampangan ang pagod ko.

03:05And we grew up with Kapampangan delicacies.

03:08Kaya sana,

03:10yung mga nagsasabing hindi authentic,

03:14hello,

03:15pwede ba,

03:17eh,

03:18nagpapatotoko kami,

03:20eh, huwag namang,

03:21huwag namang,

03:23ina-attackin yung aming

03:26culinary culture

03:28nilang mga Kapampangan.

03:30Di ba?

03:31At kita nyo ang nangyari rito.

03:34Alam nyo,

03:34kulay,

03:35kulay puti

03:36yung ating sun.

03:39Pero dito,

03:40makikita mo,

03:40kulay blue na.

03:42Ang ibig sabihin niya,

03:43nilagyan ng,

03:45oh,

03:47filter.

03:48Nilagyan ng filter, oh,

03:50ang tawag daw nila sa mga gelsy,

03:52yasipahin.

03:54O yan, oh,

03:54so nakakaasar eh,

03:56kasi bakit naman ako blue,

03:57hindi naman blue ang kampanya ko,

03:59white,

04:00you know,

04:00white,

04:00diba?

04:01So,

04:02halatang finilter.

04:03Tapos,

04:05lalo akong,

04:06parang ginawa akong mistiso.

04:08Hindi ba yun?

04:09Pinaputay.

04:10Sabi daw ko kasi,

04:11hindi daw ko tunay na farmer.

04:13Well,

04:14hindi ko naman sinasabing farmer ako,

04:16pero ang tawag ko sa sarili ko,

04:18farmer CEO.

04:19Dahil ako naman,

04:21since 2012,

04:23nagpapakakbo ko ng farm enterprise.

04:26So,

04:27pati yung pagiging farmer CEO ko,

04:30ina-question.

04:31Ano nga yan?

04:32Trenvirus na kapag ginawa ito.

04:34Tanong nyo na lang sa mga kababayan namin

04:36sa saan,

04:37punso.

04:38Tama na yung pagsisimangaling.

04:40Ha?

04:41Ito pa,

04:43kinakalat sa social media.

04:45Ha?

04:45Takagang mukhang maliwanag na ito'y orchestrated

04:51at well-funded.

04:52Bakit?

04:53Diba?

04:53Iisa ang video,

04:56pareho ang content,

05:01tapos same time,

05:03parehong oras,

05:05ina-upload,

05:06tapos pareho yung capsule.

05:08O,

05:09hindi ba orchestrated yan?

05:10Diba?

05:11Iba-ibang pages pa,

05:13kinakalat.

05:14Various pages,

05:16same content,

05:17same material,

05:19and,

05:20same time.

05:22So,

05:22this is orchestrated,

05:23well-funded.

05:25Ang information din,

05:27ay boosted

05:29itong mga accounts na ito,

05:32itong mga uploads na ito.

05:34Nung kami nasa Cebu,

05:36doon pa sa Cebu,

05:37dinirekta,

05:38mga Cebu accounts,

05:39dinirekta,

05:40itong mga pages na ito.

05:41So, talagang sinusundan tayo.

05:45Kaya ito'y nakakalungkot.

05:46Dahil,

05:48simpleng,

05:49pagpunta,

05:50gumawa ng food vlog,

05:51dahil ginagawa na natin

05:52ng mahigit dalawang taon,

05:55ay ngayon,

05:55ay ginawang,

05:57paninira.

06:00Sabi ko nga,

06:01eh,

06:01bakit mas important?

06:02Hindi pala ako,

06:03nakita ko.

06:04Sabi niya,

06:04isang nag-comment.

06:05Yung nag-comment,

06:06organic.

06:08Sabi niya,

06:10bakit ganun?

06:11Yung pumatain sa kaldero,

06:13malaking issue.

06:15Pero yung mga kandidatong kurako,

06:17di ba?

06:18Hindi ginagawa ng issue.

06:20Di ba?

06:20Sana naman,

06:22mapag-isip-isip tayo.

06:23At ito pa ang ebidensya,

06:25na maliwanag na ito

06:26ay organized trolling.

06:28Dahil,

06:30saan ka nakakita?

06:31Ang mga pangalan

06:54Bakit mag-interesado

06:56ang mga taga-Bietnam

06:57sa kampanya nato?

06:59Di ba?

07:00So,

07:00maliwanag dito.

07:04at pagsisinungalin.

07:05Pati yung mga accounts,

07:07mga hindi tunay na accounts,
