Senator JV Ejercito on Tuesday aired his concern over the country's national security following the power outage that caused flight disruptions at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport on January 1, virtually shutting down Philippine airspace.
"More importantly, ako, 'yung national security. It's a matter of national security. Kumbaga for several hours blind tayo. Hindi natin alam kung may pumapasok na mga eroplano sa atin o hindi. So ito ay hindi dapat nangyayari," he added. "Sabi ko nung una baka sabotahe ito... dahil dapat ito may backup na system , 'yung traffic management system dapat nga may backup kasi safety nga ang concern nito. Ano ang nangyari? Marami ang kinakailangang ipaliwanag ang CAAP officials dito," he said.
"Yun ang pinagtataka ko bakit itong mismong air traffic management system ay napabayaan. Tingin ko may negligence nang kaunti kaya talagang dapat may managot," he said.
