00:00 The House's version of economic charter change resolution on both houses number seven breezed
00:06 through from first to final reading in less than a month's time. The Senate version is guaranteed to
00:12 be no cakewalk and may take quite a while. And Solons of the House can't help feeling anxious
00:18 and antsy about long drawn-out deliberations and unfair fate of RBH6 after all is said and done.
00:26 Our Daniel Manalastas tells us more.
00:29 The Senator leading the discussions on the proposed economic charter change in the Senate
00:36 or its version of the resolution of both houses number six welcomes the latest development from
00:42 the House of Representatives after transmitting their version of resolution of both houses number
00:48 seven. Well that's good okay that's a good development at least uh may movement on that
00:52 part. We here in the Senate are still challenged to get 18 votes. However Angara admits it won't
01:00 be a cakewalk at all in the Senate. Some senators have expressed their objections on the proposed
01:06 charter but Senator Sonny Angara is seemingly not backing down. Most have spoken already. Senator
01:13 Villar, Senator Pimentel. So I think it's clear that it's going to be an uphill climb.
01:19 Subuk lang tayo. Diba? Sa akin naman kasi educational sa mga kababayan natin yan. Natututunan
01:25 nila. And malay mo magbago yung isip ng mga kasama natin. Baka magbago rin yung isip ng
01:29 publiko. So kami we'll just go through the processes. Senator Bato de la Rosa meanwhile
01:35 maintained that he's agreeable on separate or independent voting. Basta babutay separately
01:41 lang ako. Economic provisions o kaya ko provided voting separately. Kung voting jointly ay magalanganin
01:51 tayo dyan. Kail pagdating sa kung halimbawa mayroong mayroong mga hidden agenda yan na
01:57 sasaksakan ng political provisions at the course of the kunas. Wala na kaming power dyan.
02:05 While Senator Aimee Marcos said the passage of the House's RBH 7 should not affect the pace and
02:12 manner by which the Senate conducts its deliberations on RBH 6. Daniel Manalastas
