00:00 I would just like, I know many people are worried about our people, our Filipino nationals
00:09 in Gaza, in Israel, in the middle of the war.
00:12 Atsaka dumating ang balita sa atin na yung mga nasa Gaza hindi pinapalabas pa sa Rafah
00:20 crossing.
00:21 And nagtatakang iba bakit nga hindi?
00:25 Well it is unfortunately completely out of our hands.
00:28 We have no control over this.
00:30 It is between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
00:34 There is also a complication because some of the Filipino nationals, mga babae na may
00:42 na pangasawanan na Palestinian, hindi pinapalabas yung Palestinian.
00:46 So many of them are undecided kung gusto nilang umalis o hindi.
00:50 Dahil siyempre ayaw naman nilang iwanan ang asawa nila, ayaw nilang iwanan yung kanilang
00:54 anak.
00:55 So these are the problems that we are facing.
00:57 However, we have been, I've asked the Secretary Ricky Manalo to make, well the Ambassador
01:07 Ilan Flus, and of course he has been able to get in touch with the Foreign Minister
01:15 of Israel.
01:17 And our Ambassador, Ambassador Junie Lailo, was able to see the President yesterday, the
01:23 President of Israel yesterday.
01:25 Kumipangako sila sa atin na may papalabas na ang mga Pinoy, ang mga Pilipino, may papalabas
01:32 na by today or tomorrow.
01:34 That is what they promised us.
01:36 Saturday daw at the latest.
01:37 So that is the latest news that I received today, early this morning from our Secretary
01:45 of the DFA.
01:46 Sana naman matutuon na para mailabas na natin lahat ng gustong lumabas and bring them back
01:54 home to safety.
01:56 Thank you.
