Sen. Antonio Trillanes: Sir Greg, with all due respect but I would have to disagree kasi yan po ang linya ni VP Binay palagi. Ganito po yan- In my case, ako po ay piangimbistiga. Ako po ay imbistigador. Tiningnan-Nakita ko po yung mga dokumento at sa aking paniniwala, si VP Binay ay nangurakot. Nobody can change that kasi yan po ang aking paniniwala. And I have that right also to say that dahil nakita ko mismo. Nainterview ko mga testigo at nakita ko yung mga dokumento.

Pia Hontiveros: Are you finished Sen. Trillanes?

Sen. AntonioTrillanes: [Nods]

Sen. Gringo Honasan: -Nabangit si VP Binay, pupwede ba siya sumagot?

Pia Hontiveros: Yes- well, I’m sorry but this is not a Presidential debate, we cannot ask the Vice President to respond.

Pia Hontiveros: -Sen. Honasan wil have to respond to him

Pinky Webb: Ito na po, would you like to respond on behalf of theVP because he was-

Sen. Gringo Honasan: No- Pinky, no. Pia. Not on behalf of the VP but  as a matter of principle. In 1986, lumabas ako sa systema dahil hindi sinusunod yung batas. 20 years ago, bumalik ako. So sinasabi natin ngayon, mali ako. Mali na hindi susundin yung batas, hindi na susundin yung rules. So, the prevailing rule is no rules, is this what we’re going to tell the rebels who took up arms and went outside the law?

Pinky Webb: Sen. Honasan maraming salamat po sa inyo. Sen. Trillanes, last because we’re going to have to move the next question.

Sen. Antonio Trillanes: Sir Greg, hindi naman natin na- Ako, hindi ako husgado.  Yung pagsasbai ko na corrupt si VP Binay ang basehan nun ay mga ebidensya dun sa inimbestigahan ko. Nasa karapatan ko rin yun under the Bill of Rights. I can express that. At eto, wala etong- hindi to haka-haka kundu based on evidence. Yun po.

Pinky Webb: OK Sen. Trillanes. Thank you. We’re gonna have to go to our next question. Yung next question isgoing to be coming from a member of our live audience. Let’s Welcome, RJ Nagit. RJ is a medical student and a member of UST’s ActiBoto. RJ’s question is for Sen. Cayetano. RJ, what’s your question?

Cong. Leni Robredo: Yung sakin lang po, binangit kasi ni Sen. Chiz na yung essence ng korupsyon ang diskresyon.  Dapat tinatangal yung diskresyon sa aming mga public officials para hindi- hindi nagkakaruon ng malaking puwang para sa korupsyon. Kaya yung tanong ko po, napakatangal niya nag congressman., napakatagal niya pong nag senador- nakinabang sa PDAF. Yung PDAF po ay diskresyon. Ano po nagawa niya para matangal yung diskresyon?

Pinky Webb: Sen. Chiz Escudero, go ahead Sir.

Sen. Chiz Escudero: Ako po and Finance Committee Chairman ng Senado na nagpatupad ng pasya at desisyon ng Korte Suprema na nag abolish sa PDAF. In fact, sinulat namin sa GAA mismo yung eksaktong mga salita at pangungusap sadesisyon ng korte sa kaunaunahang General Appropriations Act na nagbawal sa PDAF. Chairman po ako ng Committee of Finance sa Senado na gumawa nun.

Pink Webb: O.K Congresswoman, please go ahead.

Cong. Leni Robredo: Kahit kami Congreso pinasa po yung GAA, andun din po yun. Pero hindi po yun yung tanong ko, napaka tagal niyang Congressman, yung PDAF tinangal ngayon lang pong term namin. Ano po yung ginawa niya dati para maiwasan yung diskresyon.

Pinky Webb: Did you do anything in the past, Sir? Yun po ang tanong ni Congresswoman Leni Robredo.

Sen. Chiz Escudero: Did I do anything in the past, Ma’am?

Pinky Webb: Meron po ba kayong ginawa ng nakaraan- [over talk]

Cong. Leni Robredo: -Para maalis ang diskresyon

Pinky Webb: – Noon meron pang PDAF para matangal yung diskresyon-

Sen. Chiz Escudero: Alam niyo po 9 na taon pong walang PDAF sa ilalim ng Administrasyion ni Panguolong Arroyo dahil ang  pinaglaban ko ang katotohanan at ang kalayaan n gating halalan. Ni hindo  siguro  ang PDAF dahil sa mahabang panahon na ako’y Congresista, wala pong narelease sakin na PDAF sa ilalim ng administrasyon ni Pangulong Aroryo.

Pinky Webb: Sen. Honasan, please

Sen. Gringo Honasan: Pinky, mawalang galang na sa ating mga kasamahan- Pinky, can you hear me?

Pinky Webb: I can hear you, Sir
