Manila 6th district Rep. Bienvenido "Benny" Abante Jr. believes that lawmakers should start talks on Charter change (Cha-cha) within the first year of the 20th Congress if they are really keen on amending the 1987 Constitution. (Video courtesy of House of Representatives)
02:21But, of course, we cannot, yung binan, hindi rin natin pwedeng tanggalin yung pagkakataon na other congressmen would want some political changes, no?
02:32So, we'll see what will happen pag nagkaroon talaga ng charter change na yan.
02:38Eh, sir, may time pa kaya?
02:40Lalo na kung yun ngayon, may impeachment pa.
02:42Palagay ko, kung ang charter change would happen in the first year of Congress, baka may time pa eh.
02:54Baka may time pa eh.
02:55And I don't know kung ano magiging, kung ano magiging process yan, whether it be constituent assembly,
03:03or whether it be constitutional convention,
03:05or whether it be yung isa pa, yung tinan natin maigay, no?
03:13Pero pag yan, eh, nasa middle na ng aming gawain,
03:22palagay ko wala na masyadong time yan.
03:24Dapat, talagang simulan na yan.
03:27Kaya naman eh.
03:28I mean, kahit may impeachment, kaya pa naman eh.
