00:00 The Philippines has reached every corner to vote.
00:05 This is what the Commission on Elections promised
00:07 following the election of the voters' registration.
00:11 In fact, the Kamelek went to Pag-asa Island yesterday,
00:15 which is a part of our territory in the West Philippine Sea.
00:18 This is Luis Eriz Pesasandro with the news.
00:21 The Commission on Elections delayed the trip to Pag-asa Island
00:27 and will go to Pag-asa Island in the Philippines.
00:30 The Airbus of the Philippine Air Force is flying.
00:32 The Kamelek bravely headed to the so-called area
00:35 behind the rising tension between the Philippines and China.
00:39 The voter registration in the province will just start.
00:42 From Pag-asa Island, in the heart of the West Philippine Sea,
00:48 we can see that the situation of our countrymen is peaceful and good.
00:53 But from there, in the ocean,
00:55 there is still tension between the Philippine ships and the ships of China.
01:00 According to the Kamelek, if there is a chance to fight for our rights,
01:05 there is no other right time but now.
01:08 Because this is our right to fight for our rights
01:12 and the right to vote as a Filipino.
01:15 It's not good that you should go to your own property.
01:20 Number one.
01:20 Number two, we have great trust in our Armed Forces of the Philippines,
01:24 the Philippine Coast Guard and the Philippine National Police.
01:27 They have been here for a long time.
01:29 The Kamelek should prove that we can go to any part of our country.
01:35 Our countrymen should just register.
01:37 Because of the Kamelek's pursuit,
01:39 many registered on the first day.
01:42 James can say that he's already late to register at the age of 23.
01:47 But he believes that this is a way to help the government.
01:50 I'm busy with work.
01:54 That's why I don't have time.
01:59 I don't have time to sit and do other things.
02:08 I don't have time to do other things.
02:15 Georgee registered for freedom.
02:19 He wants to show the strength of the Filipinos on the island.
02:23 It's a waste if I don't vote.
02:25 It's a waste if I don't vote.
02:27 Just like last time, I didn't vote.
02:29 It's a waste.
02:30 This is our freedom.
02:31 This is our vote.
02:32 This is where we live.
02:34 They said that we should build more houses here
02:37 so that our freedom will be stronger.
02:40 We won't be stolen by other countries.
02:42 The number of voters in the municipality of Calayaan is estimated at 500.
02:46 But it is expected that before the national and local elections,
02:49 50 more will be registered on the island.
02:52 The Armed Forces of the Philippines assured that the registration will be safe
02:56 even during the election in Pagasa Island.
03:00 Aside from Pagasa Island,
03:02 Kamelek also enjoyed the warm welcome of the public
03:06 in the voter registration in the whole country.
03:09 There are many people who go to our registration sites
03:13 and to think that our mall registration is not yet there
03:16 because it will start in the next few days.
03:19 But in our registration areas like the gym,
03:22 like the open spaces that our local Kamelek, our fellow Filipinos, are allowed.
03:29 Kamelek encouraged others to register.
03:32 A piece of paper was issued by the Philippine government
03:36 and the Register Anywhere Program was launched.
03:38 Kamelek just wants to remind everyone not to try to double-register
03:42 because it is against the law.
