00:00The Major Opposition Party has no plan to ally with the Marcos Administration, according to former Senator Laila de Lima.
00:09This position is the same as the one of Sandra Aguinaldo, who has been involved in several issues in the country.
00:20Even if her criminal cases are trashed under the Marcos Administration,
00:25former Senator Laila de Lima is still one of the opposition's opponents.
00:29As a speaker of the Liberal Party, she said that the party has no plans to ally with the current administration.
00:39Since you were free during the time of President Marcos, are you willing to ally with the administration?
00:50As part of the Liberal Party, we don't have such a plan.
00:53We don't talk about it.
00:56Even if we talk about it, our position is that no, we will not ally because we are an opposition.
01:06So the Liberal Party has no plans as a party to coalesce with the BBM administration for purposes of the 2025 elections.
01:20That is the position of the Liberal Party at the moment.
01:23I cannot say whether that position can change.
01:28According to de Lima, they have positions that are in line with the position of the Marcos Administration,
01:34such as the pursuit of protection of the territory of the Philippines.
01:38But they will continue to meddle if necessary.
01:42We support the position of the BBM administration, asserting all the way our sovereign rights.
01:51They have a good transparency strategy.
01:55If there are issues that are in line with the BBM Administration, why not?
02:01That's why we don't just pick and choose.
02:06We don't want to choose between the Marcos bloc or the Duterte's bloc.
02:13Again, we want to be engaged in the issues.
02:19Under the Marcos Administration, de Lima hopes that the case of Duterte in the International Criminal Court will continue,
02:28and that he can go home after his imprisonment.
02:31We hope that the process in the ICC will result in the correct outcome.
02:40And the correct outcome, of course, will be the issuance of the warrant of arrest,
02:44eventual prosecution, and ultimately imprisonment.
02:49De Lima is still fighting.
02:51But he admitted to seven years in prison.
02:54Sometimes, he also felt weak inside.
02:57He told that he was hostaged by a member of a terrorist group in 2022.
03:03According to the PNP, three men escaped from the Custodial Center.
03:09When the authorities heard about it, one of them ran to where de Lima was being held.
03:14I stood my ground. I didn't show that I was afraid.
03:18Because I had to be mentally alert.
03:21Because if you're afraid, you won't be able to think properly.
03:28I was trying to appease him.
03:30But he was also suicidal.
03:36I told him, Lord, I'll leave it up to you.
03:39I'll leave it up to you.
03:41I'll leave it up to my family if something happens.
03:45But there was a point where I said, Lord, why is this happening?
03:48That I committed suicide, that I sacrificed for so long,
03:51that was already more than six years.
03:55And then, this is what will happen to me.
03:59I'll just die here from a hostage-taking incident.
04:03In his desperation, he said he was saddened by friends who seemed to have left him.
04:10He also shared some bad news in his desperation.
04:15Even when he was separated from his family.
04:18When I heard about the deaths of relatives, friends,
04:26and then the death of Pinoy, and then of Sex Dinky, Soliman,
04:33I was really sad.
04:37When my son graduated from law school, when he was already married,
04:41he didn't let me go to his off-taking, he didn't let me go.
04:46He organized the gatherings to write and publish some books from the prison.
04:52He also had time for prayer and meditation.
04:56He also followed his schedule,
04:58and he followed it so that there would be no negative thoughts.
05:03And one thing that helped him,
05:06was taking care of stray cats that reached the age of 20.
05:11There were two or three of them,
05:13one of them would stay with me in my very small bed, a single bed.
05:18My favorite of the five, I brought them home.
05:21It's a good thing that there are cats,
05:23because it's a big thing.
05:25They helped me to overcome my sadness.
05:31The day came when he could say that he was truly free.
05:36But was he ready to ask for forgiveness from Atty. Delima?
05:40I already asked for forgiveness from those witnesses,
05:45from those who worked with those witnesses.
05:48But when it came to President Duterte,
05:53I wasn't ready.
05:54At first, did he ask for forgiveness?
05:58He didn't do that.
06:00But I didn't know.
06:01So I've been praying for the grace
06:04that I can ask for forgiveness from him.
06:09But for now, not yet.
06:11For GMA Integrated News,
06:14Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tutok, 24 hours.
