00:00I think the Marcos government has fallen short of the expectations.
00:18I cannot compare because I can say that he is better now than in my time.
00:27I can even concede that that is what is happening.
00:33But it would not be a good reason for you to solve the problem just because you are doing right
00:44more rights than the wrong ones that the other guy had committed in the past.
00:55It means that if you say that Duterte is weak, it's okay.
01:02But it's not me, it's the Filipino people.
01:08Look at the Filipinos, don't teach your enemies, like me, because I am no longer a candidate.
