English: Senator Win Gatchalian maintained that discontinuing mother tongue use as medium of instruction from Kindergarten to Grade 3 will serve the best interest of the country's learners and teachers. He pointed to the gaps in the implementation of the mother tongue-based multilingual education (MTB-MLE), which has been in place for over a decade, as a significant factor driving the need for this policy shift.

Dahil sa mga nakitang kakulangan sa pagpapatupad ng mother tongue-based multilingual education (MTB-MLE) sa nakaraang sampung taon, binigyang diin ni Gatchalian na kinakailangan na ang pagpapalit ng polisiya.
