00:00 Angelique, if the SCE certificate was chosen for the barangay and SK elections, now the line is now a blockbuster here in the Pomelec offices, because on the last day of the SCE election, the candidates who ran for the election passed.
00:20 One month after the election of BSKE, the election period is now over and at the same time, it is the last day of the SCE passing.
00:30 That's why in the local offices of Pomelec, the people who will submit their requirements are in a rush.
00:36 Like the Pomelec office in Manila, from the entrance of the office to the road, there is a long line.
00:43 Because of this, some of the people who will submit the SCE have complaints about the system.
00:49 There is no one who is signing in. Only acquaintances are signing in.
00:53 There is no priority line. You see, old, young, children, and nursing. There is no priority line here. I am hungry and I am not eating yet.
01:05 There is a push, so it is easy to sign in. It is not convenient. It is not like registration in a mall. Of course, this is the capital of the Philippines, Manila. The system should be fixed.
01:19 Maybe it is not the fault of Pomelec, it is just the coordination. Because it is too big and maybe the last minute of filing the SCE is not anticipated.
01:29 There are also some who will submit their requirements yesterday, but they already got a cut-off.
01:35 That is why now, it is still early. They are already in line to submit their requirements.
01:42 Because they got a cut-off and they were given a stub for now, 29. And they are still being allowed in. They were allowed in at 8 p.m.
01:54 Just have a priority line for seniors because PWDs are also pitiful.
02:01 It is Monday and it is allowed to pass. Everyone knows that it is a holiday. There are not many people who went here last time.
02:10 So if we know that it is a Monday holiday and we cannot let in students, maybe it is better.
02:15 According to the Commission on Elections, there are still more than a million candidates who are expected to file their SCEs today.
02:24 Because even if they already got a cut-off yesterday, there are only 500,000 who submitted their SCEs from more than 1.1 million people who ran.
02:36 That is why Pomelec will not give a cut-off and today, they will finish accepting the SCEs.
02:43 We have no plan to extend the filing of SCEs to the whole country. If they cannot file, we will not accept the SCEs that they will file tomorrow because we have a deadline.
02:55 Again, we should not get used to everyone's thinking that Pomelec will extend. They should know that there is a deadline and therefore, that is the deadline.
03:04 For those who cannot submit today, aside from the penalty, perpetual disqualification is also possible, said Pomelec.
03:12 It means that they cannot run or sit in any elected position in the government.
03:19 If this is their first time, they did not file their SCEs because they ran for the first time, they filed their SCEs last time.
03:27 We have an administrative fine that they will be imposed. They will pay SCEs.
03:34 That can be the ground of perpetual disqualification to hold public office. They cannot run or sit in any elected position in the government.
03:45 Angelic, we are still here in the Pomelec office in Manila.
03:49 If you can see behind me, there are still many people who ran for the candidates in the Barangay and SCE elections.
03:58 Most of them are complaining because there is no priority lane for PWDs, senior citizens and even for the youth.
04:09 The line is continuous. There is only one line because according to Pomelec, all of them ran so their line should be equal.
04:21 As of now, Pomelec has not yet answered if there will be a cutoff today because yesterday in Manila, there was a 3 o'clock cutoff in the line.
04:32 But now, Pomelec said that from 8 to 5, their office is open for those who will run for their candidates.
04:39 That is the latest from Manila. I will go back to you there, Angelic.
04:42 imagining.
