00:00Is the ICC not a competent authority in Senator Bato's view?

00:07I said that it is normal for Senator Bato to come because he is one of the co-perpetrators.

00:14Is there fear on his part? Maybe. I cannot answer for him.

00:20But let us remember, as far as I know, if I am not mistaken,

00:25he also heard that there will be a warrant of arrest so he did not go to Hong Kong.

00:31If he really knows that there is no warrant of arrest issued by a competent authority,

00:37he is brave to accompany former President Duterte.

00:41And as a matter of fact, he should have gone to the Netherlands first.

00:46Actually, I cannot speak on behalf of the Quadcom,

00:51on behalf of the House of Representatives because it is the arrest warrant of the House that cannot be fulfilled because of the concealment of Tony Harry Roque.

01:04But maybe it is better to challenge him to go home because he brought home FP Duterte.

01:14So maybe it is better to shout, people, bring home Roque.
