Watch President Benigno Aquino III address the nation on Monday, July 14, 2014, at 6 pm

MANILA, Philippines – President Benigno Aquino III sends a televised address to the nation on Monday, July 14, at 6 pm.

Many expected him to tackle the recent Supreme Court ruling declaring as unconstitutional 3 schemes of his administration’s Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP). The President has insisted his government did no wrong in using DAP, saying it acted in good faith. He has also rejected the resignation of DAP’s chief architect, Budget Secretary Butch Abad

The address comes hours after two survey organizations released Aquino’s latest public satisfaction ratings, which are his lowest since he became president in 2010.

Watch his speech below.
