and naging propisor ng constitutional law, I'm familiar with the rules of the Senate. And the Senate says that in proving facts, the rules of court apply in the suppletory character. I don't need to argue with you about that, Atty.
But you don't need to... Excuse me, excuse me. Sandali po. You don't need to tell the committee what the rules of the Senate are. Well, I'm just citing po.
Please just answer our question. My answer po is, that document... is only evidence of its existence.
Pero para patunayan po yung katotohanan na nakalasaad sa dokumentong yan, dapat meron pong testigo na nakakita na ginawa yung dokumentong yan, o di naman kaya testigo na gumawa ng dokumentong yan, o di naman kaya yung testigo na pumirman. ng dokumentong yan. Actually, as I said earlier, hindi po siya po pwede. Ma'am, excuse me. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Excuse me. Excuse me, Atty. Roque.
I'm sorry, Madam, but I am a resource person invited. Yes, you are. Wait, wait, wait.
Let me finish. I was asked to answer. Yes, you already answered in excess.
Kapag gusto niyo akong tumigil pa, patigil niyo ako kapag ako nag-i-explain. Yes. I thought we were engaged in the search for the truth.
Oh, definitely we are. Atty. Roque, what I am saying, yes, and Sherwin. Atty. Roque, Please be reminded to respect the chairperson.
I'm very respectful, Madam Chair. Paano respectful? Nag-sasalita siya, sinasabayan mo siya. I apologize, Senator Gachalian. One more and I will cite you in contempt.
And if you disrespect the chairperson, we'll be compelled to cite you in contempt. I understand and I apologize. Huwag naman sabayan siya, nagsasalita siya.
Siya ang chairperson. Okay, Your Honor. I understand. I apologize. Salamat.
