00:00President Bongbong Marcos accepted Vice President Sara Duterte's invitation as Education Secretary and Vice Chairperson of NTF-LCAT.
00:09The invitation was well-received by everyone. That's what I witnessed.
00:13My resignation is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of real concern for our Filipino teachers and youth.
00:31This is the message of Vice President Sara Duterte after confirming her resignation as Education Secretary.
00:36According to the Vice, she gave a 30-day notice to ensure a proper transition.
00:42Based on her resignation letter, her resignation is revocable as DepEd Secretary and Co-Vice Chairperson of NTF-LCAT.
00:49Although I will not continue to lead the government, we will continue to uphold the quality of education that is proper for Filipinos.
01:04I will continue to be a mother, a mother who cares and supports the well-being of every teacher and every student in the Philippines.
01:17In her statement, Vice President Sara did not mention why she resigned. She also did not give an additional statement regarding her camp.
01:25According to the Presidential Communications Office, President Bongbong Marcos accepted Vice President Sara's resignation.
01:32ACT-Teachers Partylist Representative Franz Castro was happy with Vice President Sara's resignation.
01:37She said it's a good thing that Vice President Sara resigned early so that DepEd Secretary can see that she is from the education sector and knows what she is doing.
01:45According to Teachers Dignity Coalition Chairperson Benjo Basas, I hope the next vice president is not a politician.
01:52Willie Rodriguez, the National President of PTA Philippines, said that there are a lot of wrongdoings and proposals.
02:00A few vice presidents were also elected to the Cabinet, such as former Vice President Salvador Laurel, Joseph Estrada, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Teofisto Gingona Jr., Jejomar Binay, and Lenny Robredo.
02:13The election of VP Sara to the Cabinet is a change in the topic of whether the UNITEAM will be formed.
02:20It was recently answered by VP Sara.
02:23UNITEAM was the tandem during the 2022 elections and then the tandem of Bongbong Sara during the 2022 elections.
02:32And then when the elections were over, we were elected.
02:34Last year, it was the first time that a dispute was noticed between VP Sara and House Speaker Martin Romaldes.
02:40After his close ally, former Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, resigned, VP Sara became a member of the Laka CMD Party in May 2023.
02:51After that, the issue about VP Sara's nickname, Tambaluslos, was raised.
02:56She is a member of Bisaya Parabatikusin, the character of a person.
02:59You are Tambaluslos.
03:01No comment. No comment on Tambaluslos.
03:05VP Sara did not mention who she is.
03:07But when she did not mention the middle name of President Marcos Romaldes, it became a hot topic if the House Speaker is the one she is referring to.
03:16At the end of September, the budget of the Office of the Vice President was announced in Congress.
03:21It is a particular use of P125 million in confidential funds within 11 days, even though the OVP has no allocation for this.
03:30The OVP is asking for P500 million in new confidential funds, including those that were refused by the Camera.
03:38Whoever is against confidential funds is against the peace of the country.
03:48At the end of January this year, the statements of VP Sara's father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, against President Marcos, became controversial.
03:57Bongbong Marcos was the president back then. Now, he is the president. The president is now the president.
04:04The allegations were made by President Marcos.
04:13I think it's the fentanyl. Fentanyl is the strongest painkiller that you can buy. It is highly addictive and it has very serious side effects.
04:28But this was not the first time that the president and VP Sara met.
04:31I would also like to thank Apo BBM for his tolerance to my objections.
04:36I have respect for the views and opinions of former President Rodrigo Duterte, as well as my siblings.
04:45But just like my position on many issues, I do not need to agree with all of these.
04:53But First Lady Liza Marcos did not like what happened.
04:58For me, I was hurt because my husband will do everything to protect you.
05:03You ran together, right? We will get up together again.
05:07You went to the rally and your president called you.
05:12You're going to lack, right? Is that right?
05:16Even Lenny never did that.
05:18VP Sara's resignation will be effective on July 19, three days before the third State of the Nation Address of President Marcos.
