Thus, said Speaker Faustino "Bojie" Dy II, who on Monday, Sept. 22 ensured that the leadership would respond accordingly to the issue involving the controversial congressman.

"Wala pa [response] sa ngayon, but siguro antayin natin. Tutal binigyan naman natin siya ng sampung araw para malaman natin kung ano yung magiging kasagutan ni Congressman Zaldy Co," Dy said in a chance interview.

(So far he has no response, but let's wait for it. Anyway, we gave Congressman Zaldy Co 10 days to give an answer.)
