The video was aired live last night on various major TV networks in the Philippines such as ABS-CBN, GMA 7 and TV5.



Here's some of the key or main points (highlights, Transcript of his speech), the full video replay link below.

He said the DAP contributed to economic growth and the PSF was needed for contingencies.

"Hindi pork barrel ang Disbursement Acceleration Program. Hindi rin po pagnanakaw ang DAP. Ang pagnanakaw, ilegal; ang paggastos gamit ang DAP, malinaw na nakasaad sa Konstitusyon at sa iba pang mga batas," he said, citing a World Bank study that said the DAP contributed 1.3 percentage points to the country's GDP in 2011.

"Kayo nga po ang magsabi: Mali ba ito? Kailan pa naging masama ang paghahanap ng konstitusyonal na paraan para makapaglingkod ng mas epektibo sa taumbayan?" he added, noting his Social Fund was used to assist victims of contingencies, such as the Visayas earthquake, and the Zamboanga standoff.

"Pagnanakaw ang isyu dito. Hindi ako nagnakaw. Pero ang mga di-umano'y nagnakaw ang nagpapasimuno ng kalituhan," he said.

"Sa sobrang hirap nga pong ipaliwanag, tila sinunod na lamang nila ang payo ng isang matandang pulitiko sa kanilang kampo: Kung hindi mo kayang ipaliwanag, palabuin mo na lang lahat; kung hindi mo kayang bumango, pabahuin mo na lang lahat; kung hindi mo kayang gumuwapo, papangitin mo na lang lahat. Narinig naman ninyo ang hirit nila: Pare-pareho lang naman daw kaming lahat. Ang tugon ko po diyan: Hindi tayo pareho. Hindi kami nagnakaw. Hindi kami magnanakaw," he said, noting that politicians allegedly involved in this issue never denied stealing public funds.
