01:30Back then, I declared that it was our time to claim our place among the best, the most progressive, and most livable cities in the country

01:42But we all knew that change could not happen overnight

01:46The reality we were aspiring for required courage of conviction

01:51and a deliberate defiance of inefficiency, indifference, and wasteful spending

01:57We need to be serious because we have to do a lot of things that we have to do

02:03From day one, we made the bold choice to veer away from traditional forms of governments

02:09Tumiwalag tayo sa mga nakagawian na, sa mga makalumang kilos at kaisipan

02:16We broke away from the same cycles and practices that have so long made bureaucracy complacent and detached from the people

02:25Many doubted if change was even possible, telling us that reforms would fail in a system so used to the familiar

02:33But we proved them wrong
