SENATOR ALAN PETER CAYETANO IPINAALALA SA MANONOOD NG CIA WITH BA ANG KAPANGYARIHAN NG MGA SALITA

Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, ipinaalala sa mga manonood ng ‘CIA with BA’ ang kapangyarihan ng mga salita

Sa episode ng ‘CIA with BA’ nitong Nobyembre 17, nagbahagi si Senador Alan Peter Cayetano ng mahalagang pananaw tungkol sa kapangyarihan ng mga salita kasama ang kanyang mga co-host na sina Senador Pia Cayetano at Boy Abunda.

Habang papatapos na ang episode, nagtanong si Kuya Alan sa mga manonood at sa Mariteam: “Naniniwala ba kayong may power sa words?”

Napansin niya kasi kung paano madalas na minamaliit ng mga tao, lalo na ng mga ina, ang kanilang mga tungkulin sa pamamagitan ng pagdaragdag ng salitang “lang” kapag inilalarawan ang kanilang mga responsibilidad sa bahay.

“Kasi napapansin ko ‘pag tinatanong, lalo [‘yung mga nanay], ang sagot, ‘Sa bahay,’ tapos may ‘lang,’” ani Kuya Alan.

Binigyang diin niya na bagama’t maaaring nagtatrabaho ang asawa mula 9 to 5, ang mga nananatili sa bahay ay nagtatrabaho 24/7. Ipinunto rin niya na kinikilala ng batas ang pantay na kahalagahan ng kanilang kontribusyon.

“Yes, nagtatrabaho ‘yung spouse, minsan 9 to 5, minsan longer. Pero ‘pag homemaker ka, 24/7 ka. Even sa batas, kinikilala na equal ang inyong kontribusyon at trabaho,” aniya. “’Pag nila-lang natin [ang] sarili natin, bakit, hindi ba marangal ang trabaho?”

Hinikayat niya ang lahat na kilalanin ang halaga ng kanilang ginagawa, at nagtapos sa pagsasabing, “If there’s power in words, let’s start practicing it.”

Sumang-ayon naman si Boy Abunda sa ganitong pananaw at nagbahagi ng personal na kwento.

“Importante talaga ‘yon,” sabi niya habang inalala ang kanyang pagkabata sa Samar. “Pagka kinukumusta kami, ako nakalakhan ko, [na isinasagot], ‘Ito, Waray.’ It’s a way of humbling ourselves.”

Ang pag-uusap ay nagbigay-diin sa kahalagahan ng wika sa paghubog ng ating pag-iisip at kung paano natin nakikita ang ating mga tungkulin, na nagpapakita ng panawagang pahalagahan ang bawat pagsusumikap at responsibilidad.

Ang ‘CIA with BA’ ay nagpapatuloy sa pamana ng yumaong Senator Rene Cayetano at napapanood tuwing Linggo, 11:00 p.m. sa GMA7, may mga replay sa GTV tuwing Sabado, 10:30 p.m.

SENATOR ALAN PETER CAUETANO REMINDS CIA WITH BA VIEWERS OF THE POWER OF WORDS

Senator Alan Peter Cayetano reminds ‘CIA with BA’ viewers of the power of words

During the November 17 episode of ‘CIA with BA,’ Senator Alan Peter Cayetano shared a valuable insight with his co-hosts, Senator Pia Cayetano and Boy Abunda about the power of words.

As they wrapped up the episode, Kuya Alan posed a thought-provoking question to the audience and the Mariteam: “Naniniwala ba kayong may power sa words?”

He observed how people, especially mothers, often downplay their roles by adding “lang” when describing their responsibilities at home.

“Kasi napapansin ko ‘pag tinatanong, lalo [‘yung mga nanay], ang sagot, ‘Sa bahay,’ tapos may ‘lang,’” he noted.

He stressed that while a spouse might work a 9 to 5 job, homemakers work 24/7. He emphasized that the law acknowledges the equal importance of their contributions.

“Yes, nagtatrabaho ‘yung spouse, minsan 9 to 5, minsan longer. Pero ‘pag homemaker ka, 24/7 ka. Even sa batas, kinikilala na equal ang inyong kontribusyon at trabaho,” he said. “’Pag nila-lang natin [ang] sarili natin, bakit, hindi ba marangal ang trabaho?”

Encouraging everyone to recognize the value in what they do, he concluded, “If there’s power in words, let’s start practicing it.”

Boy Abunda agreed with this perspective, sharing a personal anecdote.

“Importante talaga ‘yon,” he said, recalling his upbringing in Samar. “Pagka kinukumusta kami, ako nakalakhan ko, [na isinasagot], ‘Ito, Waray.’ It’s a way of humbling ourselves.”

The conversation underscored the significance of language in shaping one’s mindset and the way we perceive our own roles, highlighting a call to value every effort and responsibility.

‘CIA with BA’ continues the legacy of the late Senator Rene Cayetano and airs every Sunday at 11:00 p.m. on GMA7, with replays on GTV the following Saturday at 10:30 p.m.

KARAPATAN NG KABABAIHAN AT MGA BATA MULING ITINAMPOK SA CIA WITH BA PARA SA AWARENESS MONTH

Karapatan ng Kababaihan at Mga Bata, muling itinampok sa ‘CIA with BA’ para sa Awareness Month

Sa pagdiriwang ng Awareness Month for Violence Against Women and Children, na kasabay ng National Children’s Month, ang ‘Yes or No’ segment ng CIA with BA ay tumutok sa mga karapatan ng mga babae at mga bata.

Sa episode na ito, nagtanong si Jabo ng Mariteam: “’Yung kaibigan ko po, naghiwalay sila ng kanyang asawa. Ngayon po, masama ang loob nung kanyang dating asawa kaya po pinagbantaan niya ‘yung kaibigan ko na hindi po niya bibigyan ng sustento at sasaktan niya po. Pwede niya po bang kasuhan ‘yong lalake kahit ‘di niya na po ‘to asawa?”

Diretso itong sinagot ni Senator Pia Cayetano: “Yes, pwede niyang kasuhan.”

Paalala ni Ate Pia, hindi lamang pisikal na pang-aabuso ang maaaring kasuhan kundi pati na rin ang economic abuse. Ibinigay niyang halimbawa na sa relasyon ng mag-asawa, madalas ang mga lalaki ang nag-aambag sa gastusin, tapos bigla na lang sasabihin na hindi na siya magbibigay. “‘Yung hindi pagbibigay o maging pananakot na hindi magbibigay ay may kaakibat na parusa.”

Samantala, iba naman ang tanong mula kay Tim: “Legal po bang magtrabaho ang bata below 15 years old sa kanilang family business?”

Si Senator Alan Peter Cayetano naman ang sumagot: “Yes. That’s very relevant sa Asians.”

Ayon aniya sa Republic Act 9231, na inamyendahan ng R.A. 11996, pinapayagan ito basta’t walang pinsalang idudulot sa mga bata at hindi maaapektuhan ang kanilang pag-unlad at pag-aaral.

Sa pagtatapos ng episode, pinaalala ni Kuya Alan sa viewers, “Let’s find ways na palakasin ang mga pamilyang Pilipino, and one way to do that is to stop any abuse against women and children.”

Dagdag ni Ate Pia, “Let’s make this a better place for women and children, at maging partners ang women and men sa pagpapalaki ng pamilya at pagpapaganda ng inyong mga komunidad.”

Patuloy na itinataguyod ng 'CIA with BA' ang legacy ng yumaong Senador Rene Cayetano at napapanood ito tuwing Linggo ng 11:00 p.m. sa GMA7, na may replays sa GTV tuwing Sabado ng 10:30 p.m.

UES OR NO? CIA WITH BA SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS WOMENS AND CHILDREN'S RIGHTS AMID AWARENESA MONTH

‘Yes or No?’: ‘CIA with BA’ segment highlights women’s and children’s rights amid awareness month”

In light of the Awareness Month for Violence Against Women and Children, which coincides with National Children’s Month, the popular “Yes or No” segment of CIA with BA turned its focus on the rights of women and children.

In this episode, Jabo of the Mariteam asked a pressing question: “’Yung kaibigan ko po, naghiwalay sila ng kanyang asawa. Ngayon po, masama ang loob nung kanyang dating asawa kaya po pinagbantaan niya ‘yung kaibigan ko na hindi po niya bibigyan ng sustento at sasaktan niya po. Pwede niya po bang kasuhan ‘yong lalake kahit ‘di niya na po ‘to asawa?”

Senator Pia Cayetano responded without hesitation: “Yes, pwede niyang kasuhan.”

Ate Pia reminded everyone that it’s not only physical abuse that can be grounds for charges, but also economic abuse. She gave an example: “Sa relasyon ng mag-asawa, madalas ang mga lalake ang nag-aambag sa gastusin, tapos biglang sasabihin na hindi na siya magbibigay? ‘Yung hindi pagbibigay o maging pananakot na hindi magbibigay ay may kaakibat na parusa.”

Meanwhile, Tim raised a different question: “Legal po bang magtrabaho ang bata below 15 years old sa kanilang family business?”

This time, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano answered: “Yes. That’s very relevant to Asians.”

Citing Republic Act 9231, as amended by R.A. 11996, he noted that minors can work in their family business as long as it does not pose harm to the child or affect their development and schooling.

As the episode concluded, Kuya Alan reminded viewers, “Let’s find ways na palakasin ang mga pamilyang Pilipino, and one way to do that is to stop any abuse against women and children.”

“Let’s make this a better place for women and children, at maging partners ang women and men sa pagpapalaki ng pamilya at pagpapaganda ng inyong mga komunidad,” added Ate Pia.

CIA WITH BA: PIA CAYETANO TINALAKAY ANG ROOMING-IN LAW PARA SA MGA BAGONG INA

CIA with BA’: Pia Cayetano tinalakay ang Rooming-In Law para sa mga bagong ina

Pinaliwanag ni Senator Pia Cayetano sa mga bagong ina na may batas na nag-uutos sa mga ospital na isama agad sa kanila ang sanggol matapos manganak.

Sa "Yes or No" na segment ng CIA with BA noong Nobyembre 3, ikinuwento ni Annika mula sa Mariteam ang kanyang karanasan sa panganganak. Ayon sa kanya, ang kanyang sanggol ay sandaling dinala sa nursery at agad ding ibinalik sa kanya.

Sa kanyang pag-usisa, tinanong ni Annika kung may batas bang nag-uutos sa mga ospital na sundin ang ganitong sistema.

“‘Yung mom ko po napansin niya kasi ‘yon and sabi niya, hindi naman daw gano’n dati,” sabi niya.

Diretsahang sumagot si Senator Pia Cayetano ng “yes,” at ipinaliwanag na ang ganitong sistema ay bahagi ng "Rooming-In Law" na isinulong ng yumaong dating Senador Edgardo Angara.

Ibinahagi ni Ate Pia na si Senador Angara, na naging kasama niya sa Senado, ang nagturo sa kanya kung paano amyendahan ang kanyang panukalang batas na nagpo-promote ng pagpapasuso.

“Sabi niya sa’kin, ‘Pia, may batas ako — rooming-in; they are related, so ia-amend mo ngayon ‘yung batas ko,’” kwento niya.

“Sa Rooming-In Law, automatic ‘yan na ibigay ang baby sa nanay. Why? Because ‘yon ‘yung natural bonding na nagpo-promote ng breastfeeding,” paliwanag ni Ate Pia.

“According to studies, ang baby malabo pa ang paningin niyan for months pero gagapangin niya ang dede ng mommy niya,” dagdag niya.

Patuloy na itinataguyod ng 'CIA with BA' ang legacy ng yumaong Senador Rene Cayetano at napapanood ito tuwing Linggo ng 11:00 p.m. sa GMA7, na may replays sa GTV tuwing Sabado ng 10:30 p.m.

‘CIA with BA’: Pia Cayetano discusses Rooming-In Law for new moms

Senator Pia Cayetano enlightened new mothers and confirmed that hospitals are required to let them and their newborn babies stay together immediately after birth.

In the "Yes or No" segment of the November 3 episode of CIA with BA, Annika of the Mariteam shared her experience of giving birth. She said her baby was only briefly taken to the nursery and was quickly brought back to her.

Out of curiosity, Annika asked if there is a law requiring hospitals to follow that practice.

“‘Yung mom ko po napansin niya kasi ‘yon and sabi niya, hindi naman daw gano’n dati,” she shared.

Senator Pia Cayetano answered directly with a “yes,” explaining that this practice is part of the "Rooming-In Law" authored by the late Senator Edgardo Angara.

Ate Pia shared that being colleagues in the Senate, Angara taught her how to amend the law when she introduced legislation to promote breastfeeding.

“Sabi niya sa’kin, ‘Pia, may batas ako — rooming-in. They are related, so ia-amend mo ngayon ‘yung batas ko,’” she narrated.

“Sa Rooming-In Law, automatic ‘yan na ibigay ang baby sa nanay. Why? Because ‘yon ‘yung natural bonding na nagpo-promote ng breastfeeding,” she explained.

“According to studies, ang baby malabo pa ang paningin niyan for months pero gagapangin niya ang dede ng mommy niya,” she added.

ALAN PETER CAYETANO NAGDIWANG NG KAARAWAN SA CIA WITH BA SINAGOT ANG HARD QUESTIONS

Alan Peter Cayetano, nagdiwang ng kaarawan sa ‘CIA with BA,’ sinagot ang ‘hard’ questions

“Debate sa Senate o debate kay misis?”

Isa ito sa mga tanong na sinagot ni Alan Peter Cayetano sa episode ng CIA with BA noong Oktubre 27, sa isang espesyal na edisyon ng segment na Payong Kapatid bilang selebrasyon ng kanyang kaarawan.

Ang tanong ay mula kay Angelo Borlongan, isang pulis na minsang itinampok sa segment na Salamat.

“Mas madali sa Senate. Kahit papano may panalo ako do’n sa debate. Kay misis, kahit panalo, talo pa rin. Kay misis, pakiusap, hindi debate,” biro ni Kuya Alan.

Isa pang tanong ang nagmula kay Mocha Uson: “Paano ba maging feeling young forever? Anong sikreto mo?”

Sa pagkakataong ito, seryosong sinagot ni Kuya Alan ang tanong: “Ang dami kong gustong sabihin pero bottomline [is] tiwala lang sa Panginoon. Live by faith, not by sight.”

Nagbigay naman ng mas seryosong tanong ang musikero na si Jimmy Bondoc: “Is being a Christian an asset or a liability in the political world? I really want to know.”

“It’s not about being an asset or a liability. It’s really what you value. So to me, seeking God’s kingdom, being a Christian, is everything. If you go into public service and you have to give that up, public service is not worth it,” sagot ng Senador.

Bilang pagtatapos, sinabi ni Cayetano, “This birthday, I know it’s special, but there are so many people struggling din so I hope Ate [Pia], Kuya Boy, myself, the show, our family can also be a gift to you. We hope to continue to do more through ‘CIA with BA.’”

Nagpahayag naman ng pasasalamat si Boy Abunda kay Kuya Alan habang binabati ito: “Nais kong magpasalamat kay Kuya Alan for all the things you do for us, this country at higit sa lahat, for showing us that you can be a Senator and be childlike at the same time.”

“Continue to be an inspiration to many people,” dagdag ni Pia, kapatid ni Alan at co-host ng programa.

ALAN PETER CAYETANO CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY ON CIA WITH BA ANSWERS HARD QUESTIONS

Alan Peter Cayetano celebrates birthday on ‘CIA with BA,’ answers ‘hard’ questions

“Debate sa Senate o debate kay misis?”

This was one of the questions answered by Alan Peter Cayetano in the October 27 episode of CIA with BA, featuring a special edition of the segment Payong Kapatid to celebrate his birthday.

The question came from Angelo Borlongan, a policeman previously featured in the segment Salamat.

“Mas madali sa Senate. Kahit papano may panalo ako do’n sa debate. Kay misis, kahit panalo, talo pa rin. Kay misis, pakiusap, hindi debate,” Kuya Alan joked.

Another question came from Mocha Uson: “Paano ba maging feeling young forever? Anong sikreto mo?”

This time, Kuya Alan answered more seriously: “Ang dami kong gustong sabihin pero bottomline [is] tiwala lang sa Panginoon. Live by faith, not by sight.”

Musician Jimmy Bondoc, meanwhile, asked a more serious question: “Is being a Christian an asset or a liability in the political world? I really want to know.”

“It’s not about being an asset or a liability. It’s really what you value. So to me, seeking God’s kingdom, being a Christian, is everything. If you go into public service and you have to give that up, public service is not worth it,” said the Senator.

As he concluded, Cayetano shared, “This birthday, I know it’s special, but there are so many people struggling, so I hope Ate [Pia], Kuya Boy, myself, the show, and our family can also be a gift to you. We hope to continue to do more through ‘CIA with BA.’”

Boy Abunda then expressed his gratitude to Kuya Alan, saying, “Nais kong magpasalamat kay Kuya Alan for all the things you do for us, this country, at higit sa lahat, for showing us that you can be a Senator and be childlike at the same time.”

“Continue to be an inspiration to many people,” added Alan’s sister and co-host, Pia.
