01:53So, kung saan po ito ibebenta, ito po ay ayon na rin po sa guidelines ng local government units.
01:59Siguro po, mas maganda po itanong natin kung sino po yung mga involved ng local government units para maalaman natin kung ano yung mga guidelines po nila.
02:06At sa May 2 naman po, ay sisimulan din po ito sa Visayas Avenue sa Bureau of Animal Industry sa May 2 po.
02:15Ito naman po ay sa Kariwa.
