00:00Attorney Maria Jovena Amelia V. Guanzo, first nominee in the P3-PWD parties.
00:08The meaning of P3-PWD is family, patient, and PWD.
00:20Yeah, because the first nominee was our chair, who was a polio survivor and was a survivor of breastfeeding.
00:27Her daughter had stage 4 breastfeeding, so she couldn't sit.
00:38So she told me, since you have been advocating for PWDs and you're retired now, why don't you just campaign for us?
00:48I said, I'll campaign for you. So I campaigned, right?
00:51And then she decided that she really can't do it because they go to the hospital three times a week.
00:57So, she really can't do it.
01:02But that's a fact. We're not lying.
01:07What is lying in Tagalog?
01:09Huh?
01:10Gusto.
01:11Lie?
01:12That's not a lie.
01:14It's a lie because it's a lie.
01:16It's a lie because it's a lie.
01:18That's a fact.
01:23I was a sidestep so that she can sit.
01:26I really wanted her to sit.
01:28She took off.
01:29Grace Ineza, a PBA, consultant to the ADD.
01:33Brilliant people in P3-PWD.
01:36Brilliant and accomplished people.
01:39We have family, we have family members who have disabilities.
01:44It's true that we are a genuinely marginalized sector.
01:48It's true. We're not contractors like the others.
01:53This contractor is marginalized.
01:56Don't be ashamed.
01:58You have a lot of money.
02:00Do you want to become a congressman so that your money will be more effective?
02:05I hope you give that to us.
02:07Those who are truly marginalized,
02:09we just need a few more votes.
02:11Do you want us to vote for you?
