00:00Yes, ma'am. The lawyers presented me with options, and I asked them if I needed to go to the MDI for the subpoena in the case that I have options not to go.
00:20I can send a letter, I can send a position paper, I can send an affidavit. And so we decided that a letter will be sent through the MDI.
00:33And then, with regard to patas, I don't think that this investigation will be considered as patas because if you saw the message of the President,
00:53he said that this type of criminal, I don't remember the exact words he said, but he said that this type of criminal injustice, he said that this type of criminal act that I will not overlook.
01:13So as we can see, the pronouncements of the President, there is bias there. And if you saw the interview of a USEC of the Department of Justice, he said that a threat is a threat.
01:33But if you're a lawyer, you would argue that there are several kinds of threats, but you can see that he said what his position is. And as a USEC of DOJ, we expect that that is the position of the Department of Justice.
01:54So even if I go there, even if I don't go there, we believe and I believe that we will, the lawyers and I, believe that cases will be filed. So even if they say that there is an investigation, they have already decided that they will file cases.
02:17No, I'm at peace. I'm at peace with whatever happens to me. I have already accepted that whatever happens to me, that will be God's purpose for my life.
02:32So I am at peace staying and finishing my term because that is my contract with the Filipino people. And I am at peace going if I will be removed from office.
03:02I am at peace.
