President Marcos bared that the ongoing issue on the immigration of Filipinos in the United States was not discussed during his official trip in Washington.
Marcos said in an interview that his three-day visit in the US was not the forum for the issue to be raised.
00:00Sir, if a different topic lang po, make me know if the topic of the immigration, particularly on the undocumented Filipinos, has been raised or talked?
00:10It's not been raised. It was not in this forum.
00:16But we are, of course, well aware of the situation.
00:19And thus far, I think, in our estimation, what the United States is doing now is not anything different than they've been doing before.
00:31Ito yung mga may record, o yung mga wanted, o yung mga convicted, lalong-lalong na kung sila ay illegal, TNT sila, yun ang mga pinapauwi nila.
00:42Sa ngayon, yung mga pinapauwi nila, ganun pa rin yung mga naging, those that have been convicted of committing crimes, that are also, in fact, illegal.
00:53So that's the situation with the immigration so far.
