00:00 Live from the GeoMay Network Center, this is "24 Horas."
00:06 Good evening, John Visayas and Minga Now.
00:21 The former Senator Laila Delima was sentenced to more than six years in prison after she allowed the third and final case.
00:34 The court said that the allegation that Delima was involved in a drug trafficking in the Philippines has not been proven.
00:42 The court also called for a hearsay or a statement from witness Herbert Colanco, who had saved funds for his senatorial bid because he did not hear it from Delima, but from JV Sebastian's inmate, who was arrested by Chino Gaston.
01:04 Former Senator Laila Delima was so emotional and raised her hand when she was allowed to plead guilty to the third and final case,
01:12 which was the case of the woman who was charged with drug trafficking in the Philippines when she was a justice secretary.
01:19 According to the decision of Montinlupa RTC Judge Henner Hito, the charge is more than companionship or being together, and not because there is a charge in the scene of the crime.
01:32 Delima and other accused should be allowed to plead guilty because the prosecution said that the accused should be proven guilty.
01:43 They were allowed to plead guilty for P300,000.
01:48 Finally, I am free. For years, my whole being has been crying out for justice and freedom.
02:05 Two RTC judges held the case before going to Hito. Judge Romeo Buenaventura was inhibited by Delima's camp after he just helped his brother.
02:17 He was the former driver who helped Delima in the case.
02:20 Judge Abraham Alcantara was inhibited so that the decision would not be doubted because he handled a former case of Delima.
02:29 I also thank Judge, Honorable Judge Henner Hito for his loyalty to the law and justice.
02:40 Delima also thanked the Marcos administration for their excellence in judicial independence.
02:47 Delima was first brought back to the Camp Crummy Detention Center for medical check-up and other procedures before he was released.
02:55 Delima's former drivers, Ronnie Dayan, Junel Sanchez, Jose Adriandera and former Bucor Chief Franklin Bocayo, were also allowed to plead guilty.
03:07 Sir, you are granted bail.
03:09 Ronnie, what do you say?
03:11 Sir, what do you say?
03:14 You are granted.
03:16 For the GMA Integrated News, who was sentenced? 24 hours.
03:21 Former Senator Laila Delima went deep into the physical and medical examination at Camp Crummy while waiting for her release order.
03:32 She was sentenced live.
03:33 Junel Sanchez.
03:40 Mel, when the process and all the requirements are completed, former Senator Laila Delima will be released from the PNP Custodial Center after more than 6 years.
03:55 We are now here at the release of the court.
03:58 Finally, I will be free after 6 years, 8 months, 21 days.
04:05 Of 2424 days, I am now free.
04:11 Free, free, free.
04:14 It was 4 p.m. when former Senator Laila Delima was able to return to Camp Crummy from Montinlupa City.
04:22 She just needs to process some documents, including the official copy of the release order from the court that the PNP should get,
04:29 as well as the physical and medical examination before she is released.
04:33 Once we receive the official copy of the release order and the medical and physical examination of ma'am is completed,
04:43 the doctors will be able to return to the court. Once we receive the official copy, for all intents and purposes,
04:50 she will be released from the PNP Custodial Center in compliance with the court order.
04:55 Until now, Delima was guarded by police escorts.
04:59 Despite the fact that Delima was forced to host an inmate while she was in the PNP Custodial Center last year,
05:10 Delima was saved when a police colonel killed the hostage taker who was a member of the Abu Sayyaf group.
05:16 There was a man holding an improvised knife.
05:20 It was pointed at his chest.
05:24 After that, he had a hematoma in his chest.
05:36 Mel, we have seen the items that were taken out from the PNP Custodial Center.
05:41 Delima was being helped by her staff to pack her belongings.
05:46 Once all of this is done, police will escort Delima to her next destination.
05:52 Thank you very much, Jun Veneracion.
05:56 Delima's relatives in Irigal, Camarines Sur were deeply emotional.
06:05 They couldn't watch the live broadcast of the hearing.
06:07 But that was the only joy that the former senator was allowed to have.
06:12 Delima's imprisonment was a big challenge for her family.
06:17 I'm very proud.
06:19 She didn't break her promise.
06:21 She didn't cheat.
06:24 She is very, very brave.
06:26 The Lord is always alive with us.
06:29 We're doing this.
06:31 We've been praying for a year.
06:34 I'm very thankful to God for supporting Delima's family.
06:40 [music]
06:47 They are again near the BRP Sierra Madre,
06:51 which is the center of tension in the territory of the West Philippine Sea.
06:55 With us is the GMA Integrated News on the successful ships that were near the ship.
06:59 With us is the Philippine Coast Guard.
07:01 Despite the aggressive attack of the ships of China,
07:04 Joseph Morong was able to stop them.
07:07 [ship horn]
07:09 From the BRP Metsoro Aquino, the largest ship of the Philippine Coast Guard,
07:13 in this resupply mission,
07:15 we were brought down by a Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat.
07:23 Three kilometers from our target destination,
07:30 the ship that was docked at Yungin Shoal.
07:34 We are now going down for the...
07:37 ...ship of the Sierra Madre.
07:41 We are near the BRP Sierra Madre, where the Philippine Coast Guard is doing its mission.
07:51 But as we were still going down,
07:53 we were immediately caught by the inflatable boats of China.
07:57 They were also carrying steel hulled boats.
08:01 This is the one that was accompanied by us, and on the right,
08:04 there is also a rigged one.
08:08 Not far away, the Chinese militia vessel is surrounded.
08:12 Who is that? Is that Chinese?
08:16 Who is this?
08:20 Is it ours?
08:22 So, one, two, three, four, five of us, right?
08:27 Ah, six.
08:30 While we were approaching the BRP Sierra Madre,
08:34 we were surrounded by the Chinese Coast Guard.
08:40 They were killing us so that we won't be able to approach.
08:43 Tell them to go down there.
08:46 Despite the harassment, we were also able to approach the so-called center of tension
08:55 between China and the Philippines in the West Philippine Sea.
08:59 In 1999, the Philippines sent this to Ayungin Shoal and an active naval post.
09:04 It's old because it was a World War II ship.
09:07 Its steel is like a pin.
09:10 We just got closer to the Philippine Coast Guard here in Ayungin Shoal
09:18 where the BRP Sierra Madre is destined to be.
09:21 This is the one that is always doing its supply mission and wants to be removed by China.
09:28 Ayungin Shoal is only 214 kilometers away from the nearest port in Palawan
09:33 because it's only a few minutes away from the Metro Manila in Pangasinan.
09:36 We don't want the Chinese government to still continuously argue that they have the total control of Ayungin Shoal.
09:45 For a maritime law expert, if the Philippines is letting Ayungin Shoal go,
09:49 it's like letting China take our exclusive economic zone
09:55 that it can do to other claimant countries and weaken the 2016 arbitral ruling and international law.
10:01 They must have assigned already some kind of value to this particular reef.
10:06 And they simply want everyone else out of it.
10:13 I mean the entire Spratly Island region.
10:16 We will not let Ayungin Shoal go.
10:19 That is the order of our President.
10:22 We will protect it.
10:24 And we will make sure that the residents there are also well-off.
10:28 For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, for 24 Hours.
10:33 The implementation of higher fines for illegal passengers in EDSA bus lane is already underway.
10:40 More than 100 motorists were sampled.
10:43 And that is what Oscar Oida is talking live.
10:46 Oscar.
10:51 Yes, Vicky, despite the left and right reminders,
10:55 there are still many violators of EDSA bus lane who were caught earlier.
11:00 There is no exception to the laws of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority or MMDA.
11:09 Some motorists are passing through EDSA bus lane.
11:12 There are government employees.
11:14 There are even MMDA officers.
11:17 And even the police.
11:20 The implementation of higher fines for illegal passengers is already underway.
11:23 That is P5,000 for the first violation.
11:26 P10,000 for the second violation, which includes a seminar and a month suspension.
11:32 P20,000 for the third violation and a year suspension of the license.
11:37 P30,000 for the fourth violation and the complete repayment of the license.
11:45 Less than half a day has passed since more than 100 motorists were fined with higher penalties for illegal passengers in EDSA bus lane.
11:52 MMDA promises that if motorists are persistent in violating, they will be more persistent in catching.
12:00 Earlier, there were already some who were caught and even tried to escape.
12:05 Just like this motorcycle, which was also blocked by the constables.
12:12 If you just stopped earlier, your ticket is P5,000 for the busway violation.
12:19 Now you ran and caught us, that is an automatic third offense.
12:25 P20,000 and a one-year suspension.
12:29 You are putting other road users' safety at risk.
12:34 And also those who are chasing you and your own safety.
12:38 And if some motorists thought that they were already safe in Asunto, they are wrong.
12:45 From today, adjusted mall hours in Metro Manila will be implemented, which is 11am to 11pm.
12:54 It will last until January 8 of the next year.
12:58 There are some restaurants and groceries that are allowed to open earlier.
13:03 Every weekend, the mall will allow a wide sale.
13:07 We're trying to absorb the shock of the 15% volume, the influx of volume of vehicles.
13:14 Because every per month, leading to the Christmas rush.
13:19 Meanwhile, Vicky, the restrictions in Metro Manila will be lifted,
13:29 thanks to the so-called flagship projects of the government and the companies that are involved in preparing for flooding.
13:37 Thank you very much Oscar Oida.
13:40 Because of the hacking, the dark web is now in control.
13:43 The millions of personal information of those who registered for the COVID-19 vaccine,
13:48 according to an expert, it is very dangerous to use it.
13:52 In the attack of Baki Pulido.
13:58 All those who registered to be vaccinated against COVID-19 were given personal information,
14:03 such as their full name, address, birthday, mobile number and email address,
14:07 as well as blood type and medical history.
14:09 All pictures, government IDs, school ID or birth certificate were also taken.
14:15 The Department of Information and Communications Technology signed that these information were hacked
14:20 by the World Health Organization based on the monitoring of their computer emergency response team.
14:27 The datasets were obtained not only from the Philippines but also from India.
14:30 The case is that they do not have a jurisdiction in the WHO,
14:33 that's why they have not investigated what happened.
14:36 We are waiting for the WHO to announce it, but they have not yet responded.
14:52 According to security analyst Carla Cruz, 180 million datasets were hacked and are now on the dark web.
14:58 Because the information that was hacked is complete, it is very dangerous.
15:18 I am shopping online, they might not know that I am not Baki Pulido.
15:22 I got a new SIM card, OTP.
15:25 To protect themselves, experts are advising to change your PIN and password every 3 months,
15:39 to do multi-factor authentication and to use a strong password.
15:44 For GMA Integrated News, Baki Pulido for 24 Hours.
15:48 Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chu Laurel Jr. did not finish his studies.
15:57 He admitted it himself to correct those who spread false information about him
16:04 as a graduate from the University of Santo Tomas.
16:09 Although he wanted to finish his studies, Chu Laurel Jr. said he did not have the chance
16:14 after becoming a father at the age of 19.
16:18 At a young age, he needed to find a job to support his family.
16:23 He just tried to make his business start in fishing.
16:30 The President appointed the head of the Mga Ngasiwa Corporation in the Maharlika Investment Fund.
16:38 A group is in doubt on the removal of some requirements for the leadership.
16:43 Ivan Mayrina is the one who pointed it out.
16:45 Rafael Consing Jr. was appointed by the President as President and Chief Executive Officer
16:52 of the Maharlika Investment Corporation or MIC, Mga Ngasiwa, in the Maharlika Investment Fund.
16:57 Consing is the Presidential Advisor on Investment and Economic Affairs.
17:01 But before this, he became the Chief Finance Officer and Treasurer of the International Container Terminal Service
17:07 Inc. or ICTSI, the company that runs the Manila International Container Terminal.
17:12 He also became the Treasurer of Aboitiz Equity Ventures.
17:16 This weekend, changes were issued to the first implementing rules and regulations
17:20 of the Maharlika Investment Fund.
17:22 In the first IRR, the President will only choose those recommended by an advisory board
17:27 to become President and CEO and Board Members and Independent Directors
17:30 of the Maharlika Investment Corporation or MIC.
17:33 In the revised IRR, he can reject those recommended and ask for other names that can be appointed.
17:39 And if in the first IRR, the President and Board Members of the Maharlika Investment Corporation
17:43 have a Master's Degree, in the new IRR, those requirements were removed.
17:48 The Bayan Munap group said that there is a reason for the approval of some of the IRR's amendments
17:54 so that the President can really appoint those who are not qualified in the old IRR.
17:59 The Executive Minister of the Maharlika Investment Corporation said that Konsing does not have a Master's Degree but...
18:03 Joel Konsing has a good performance in the companies but he does not have a Master's Degree.
18:09 I think that he is in the right hands and it's a good choice.
18:13 An economist also respects the prerogative or the power of the President to choose those who will be appointed to MIC.
18:19 When it comes to experience, the fit is there because the fund has a developmental aspect,
18:27 especially the funding of various infrastructure projects.
18:31 So the expertise is there when it comes to the developmental side.
18:35 Through the Department of Finance, according to the new IRR's amendments,
18:40 the Board of Directors assures independence of those who will oversee and will focus on the effective implementation of the fund.
18:46 For GMA Integrated News, Ivan Mejrina, for 24 Hours.

19:00 More than 100 Filipinos have already crossed to Egypt from Gaza but there are still some Filipinos left.
19:07 Raffi Tima is live from Cairo, Egypt.
19:16 ML, when the third batch of Filipinos arrived here in Cairo this morning,
19:21 the total number of Filipinos who were saved and were released from Gaza was already 111.
19:26 Some of the voices and eyes of GMA Integrated News were also present here in Gaza,
19:32 Nadia and Mahmood. After returning to the border four times,
19:36 they were the last ones to be released from the Rafah border crossing last night.
19:45 It's a great feeling when Filipinos meet Nadia and Mahmood when they arrive here in Cairo, Egypt at 6 this morning.
19:51 They are the ones who are seen at the border every time it is opened.
19:54 But Nadia was left behind several times because her Mr. Palestino was not on the list of those who were allowed to cross.
20:00 Last night, they were the last ones to be released by the Egyptian border authorities.
20:04 All the nationalities are already left.
20:08 The Philippines, all the group of Filipinos are waiting for me on the bus.
20:14 I was just staying at the border.
20:17 Nadia and I are the consuls.
20:20 I don't even have 10% that I will be leaving.
20:24 They have been left without food and water for several days, but there is still sadness in their hearts.
20:30 It's like I was drowned by a fish.
20:33 It's a very strange feeling.
20:36 Although there is still guilt because her family is already there.
20:43 I really love them.
20:45 It's so sad that they were left behind.
20:48 Hamza also felt the same way.
20:50 Aside from his Filipino mother, he is the only Filipino who was left behind in Gaza City with his son and Palestinian wife.
20:56 Before leaving the last day, they were told to fight outside the hospital where they were hiding.
21:02 The whole glass of the hospital on the front was broken.
21:05 It came inside. So we went back.
21:07 Then we went to the base, to the second part of the hospital.
21:13 At the end, when they came this much close, we took our choice and we left yesterday.
21:20 We walked all the way.
21:22 There were some tanks of the Israeli army and soldiers, snipers everywhere.
21:29 We could see them.
21:31 We were asked to raise our hands, our passports.
21:34 When they arrived in Cairo, they immediately brought their 5-year-old son to the hospital after he had a stroke.
21:40 The new arrivals were greeted by DFA Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega.
21:43 He went to Cairo to see the repatriation effort of the embassy.
21:47 Until now, the Jordan Embassy is still asking the Filipinos who are left behind in Gaza to leave.
21:52 We have 26 Filipinos who have remained in Gaza.
21:56 Of this number, we have a Filipino nun in Gaza City who has decided to stay in order for her to complete her mission.
22:07 As to the other 25 Filipinos who are still in Gaza, many of them have relocated to the southern part of the Bessinche Plate.
22:16 Their reasons for not leaving Gaza are very personal to them.
22:19 We hope in the next few days you will come.
22:23 If not, we respect your decision but we will see what we can do to help you.
22:28 Along with the strong explosion, the Israeli and Hamas groups are also fighting.
22:36 The cry of the people in Al Shifa Hospital, the largest hospital in Gaza, is also loud.
22:41 The civilians there are full of fatigue and their loved ones are injured in the aftermath of the Israeli airstrikes.
22:48 Last week, the hospital was hit by a bomb so the operation was stopped.
22:57 This is a double calvary because only half of the hospitals in Gaza are being affected due to the lack of supplies according to the World Health Organization.
23:05 Because the electricity supply is also running out, only cell phones are being used to provide light to treat some patients.
23:11 Even the newly born babies seem to have their own fight for their lives after being taken out of the incubator and placed in ordinary beds.
23:21 They have to stay in Al Shifa Hospital. They have decided they are dead until they survive this massacre which happened for more than 24 hours now.
23:30 Nothing stopped. It's all from the tanks, from the sheath, from the airstrikes.
23:35 According to Israel, they are getting sick here but they are being refused, according to what the director of the hospital himself said.
23:43 Israel's Gait Pan is the command center of Hamas, the underground and surrounding hospitals in the area which is being refused by the group.
23:50 According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, they will not stop their operation in Gaza until they get full control of the security here.
23:59 That's why others are still waiting in Gaza to be able to leave through the Gaza-Ish border, including some Filipinos.
24:11 This afternoon, 14 Filipinos and their Palestinian relatives arrived in the Philippines.
24:19 They arrived on Saturday and part of the second batch.
24:23 Some of them are calling for help. They are asking for help on where they can temporarily live.
24:31 They don't have any relatives nearby and it's hard for their relatives to live there to accommodate their families who came from Gaza.
24:41 They are saying their house in Gaza is already destroyed.
24:44 They are hoping that they can help them to have a new house even temporarily in the Philippines.
24:49 That's all the latest from Cairo, Egypt.
24:52 Thank you very much. Rafi Thima, Nagulat Live from Cairo, Egypt.
24:57 [Music]
25:06 Good evening, Kapuso!
25:08 Be alert because a storm is approaching the Philippine area of responsibility and it's possible that it will hit some parts of the country in the next few days.
25:18 The last tropical depression in the 1465 kilometers is in the northeastern Mindanao.
25:26 It is characterized by a strong wind of 45 kilometers per hour and a strong storm of 55 kilometers per hour.
25:33 It is moving in the northern part of the country at a speed of 15 kilometers per hour.
25:37 According to the forecast, it is expected to enter the par on Wednesday or Thursday and will call on the local name of Kabayan.
25:44 It's possible that a storm will hit the eastern Visayas in the next few days.
25:48 The possibility that it will become a typhoon is still there.
25:55 At the moment, it has no effect on any part of the country.
25:57 But it's possible that the wind signal of hope will rise on Thursday or Friday in the eastern portions of Visayas and Mindanao.
26:04 In the par, the Amihan and Shirline are continuously moving in the direction of rain in some parts of the country.
26:12 Based on the data of Metro Weather, the chances of rain in Kabayan, Isabela and some parts of the Cordillera Administrative Region are high since the morning.
26:23 It will also rain in Aurora, Quezon and some parts of Mindoro Provinces and Palawan.
26:28 In the afternoon, it will rain more in the northern and central zone and Bicol Region.
26:34 It is also possible that it will rain heavily so be prepared for possible flooding or landslides.
26:39 The chances of rain in Metro Manila are not going away so always bring an umbrella and monitor the advisories of hope.
26:48 For our fellow Visayas, it will rain almost all day in Aklan, Capiz, Negros Provinces, Cebu Bohol, Samar and Leyte Provinces.
26:58 For Mindanao, the chances of rain in the morning are low.
27:02 But by afternoon, it is expected to rain in Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Caraga and Davao Region.
27:10 That's all for the latest weather updates.
27:12 I am Maureen Shrivers for GMA Integrated News Weather Center.
27:17 You can expect anything, anytime.
27:20 Meanwhile, in the newsroom, former Senator Laila de Lima is making a report. Let's listen.
27:25 Despite the difficulties and hardships of the struggle for the law and the process that we are fighting,
27:33 we are still winning, believing and hoping that the time will come when the truth and the truth will prevail.
27:46 Every moment was a test and every single second was a fight to rise above the sorrow, the fears, the uncertainties of the future
27:57 and even, to be honest, the temptation to be overcome by hate and vindictive thoughts.
28:04 There was always that temptation.
28:06 I fought for all of that.
28:09 I will not give up my humanity and my humanity.
28:15 They may have taken years of my life, but they will never take my humanity.
28:20 The world is full of people who are open-minded and independent in the face of the oppression of the people.
28:29 I will never be one of them.
28:32 Every second, every minute, every hour, every day, every month and every year of the last 2,454 days
28:44 was a struggle, but the one thing I can honestly say is that I never allowed myself to even entertain any regret.
28:54 No regrets.
28:56 Yes, I wish things turned out differently, but these are things that were beyond my control.
29:03 But for the things that were, what I did, how I reacted, and my reasons for fighting for those who were victimized
29:12 and who couldn't speak for themselves, I have no regret.
29:16 As I appear before you today, 6 years, 8 months, 21 days after I peaceably surrendered myself to the authorities,
29:26 it is one of my greatest achievements in my career and in my life to say that not only did I survive
29:33 all these years of persecution and unjust detention, I came out stronger than ever
29:41 with an even stronger commitment to truth, justice, human rights, democracy, and the rule of law.
29:49 These are not just words to me.
29:55 These have been my lifeline.
29:58 These have been my life before, during, and after my unjust detention started.
30:07 You are the ones I fought for, so thank you very much because I too was the one you fought for.
30:14 Thank you very much for your prayers and for your unwavering commitment to truth.
30:21 God bless you.
30:23 That is the part of the full story of former Senator Laila Delida.
30:30 [Music]
30:42 When he was young, but now he's rolling in the international billiard scene,
30:46 the wonder kid from Antipolo, Albert James Manas, is great.
30:50 Let's change the game and have a one-on-one with him in the billiards.
30:55 [Music]
31:01 At 16 years old,
31:03 Albert James Manas is now a pro in the world of billiards.
31:11 Fresh from his 2023 Hanoi Junior Pool Champion win last October,
31:18 let's get to know the wonder kid from Antipolo.
31:23 But we have a twist in our one-on-one.
31:25 Because we will play billiards.
31:29 Of course, I'm the game.
31:32 But before we break, AJ, tell us, how did you get into billiards?
31:37 I started when I was 7 years old.
31:40 My grandfather taught me because we have a billiard room at home.
31:43 Okay, AJ, let's break.
31:45 You know, I feel like I'm just like this the whole game.
31:47 We can't be seen.
31:49 So let's just be ourselves.
31:52 Yes.
31:53 No, he gave me a chance.
31:55 [Music]
32:02 Number 2.
32:04 Number 2.
32:06 He said that.
32:08 He made me jump.
32:10 He made it hard for me.
32:12 I don't know how to shoot.
32:14 This is so confusing.
32:16 Let's do it like before.
32:18 Yay!
32:21 That's it, man.
32:22 Yes!
32:24 It's okay, I feel like I'm winning.
32:26 Let's go.
32:28 [Music]
32:36 In October last year, AJ participated in his first open professional tournament in Bacolod City.
32:42 There, he faced some veteran cue masters.
32:47 And he even defeated billiard legend Efren Bata Reyes in the semifinals of the 10-ball race to 8.
32:54 How do you feel when you defeated him?
32:57 I'm happy because he's a legend.
33:00 He's just a title to play with once in my life.
33:03 I just said that I'll do my best.
33:06 I'll enjoy it.
33:08 Even if I lose, I'm okay because I'm happy that I was able to fight my idol.
33:10 [Music]
33:16 You competed in the 2023 Hanoi Junior Pool Championships.
33:20 How do you feel about winning a championship in an international tournament?
33:27 I'm so happy because it's my first time competing in an international tournament.
33:31 And it's my first title, my first international title.
33:35 I've been dreaming of winning it.
33:37 In short, he's only 16 years old.
33:39 There's still a lot to learn in billiard.
33:44 Speaking of winning, let me win first.
33:46 [Music]
33:48 It's okay.
33:50 This is the defeat I'm really accepting.
33:52 Did we get a shot?
33:54 That's it. That's what's important.
33:56 [Laughs]
33:58 We met and fought, experienced, and we lost to AJ in billiard.
34:06 He's really good.
34:08 There are still a lot of tournaments to win here in the country and in the international stage.
34:13 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Avier.
34:16 I'm Angie Imanas.
34:18 Changing the Game!
34:20 There are still a few days left for the shooting of the long-awaited comeback on the big screen of Dong Yan, Rewind.
34:29 Aside from that, the TikTok entries of Yan Yan are still a hit.
34:33 Let's talk to Nelson Canlas.
34:35 [Music]
34:41 Capturing the hearts of netizens, the TikTok videos of Capuso Prime Time Queen Marian Rivera
34:46 have already won thousands of netizens in her new TikTok dance challenge.
34:52 With more than 7.6 million views.
34:56 Yan Yan is still fresh and sampling dance moves while cooking.
35:04 And post-it notes featuring her husband, Ding Dong Dantes.
35:10 [Music]
35:14 Speaking of Dong Yan, fans are already looking forward to their comeback project on the big screen
35:20 and Metro Manila Film Festival entry, Rewind.
35:23 Dong Yan is very grateful that their film is included in the official entries.
35:28 We're so thankful.
35:30 When they told us that we were included in the first movies that were released,
35:35 we were so thankful.
35:37 We were like, "Wow, thank you, Lord, we were included."
35:39 The movie reflects the reality of a family life.
35:45 So even though the movie is not yet released, it's already one of her favorites.
35:51 They will be waiting for a lot of movies.
35:53 I said that this is one of my favorite movies because the storyline is really beautiful.
35:58 The movie shooting will last for a few more days,
36:01 where they will also be with some talented artists.
36:06 We're really shooting everything that we can do until the deadline of the Metro Manila Film Festival.
36:12 Nelson Canlas, updated on Shopee's happenings.
36:16 The court's approval for Dalima to appear in court was considered a success for some politicians.
36:24 Even the ambassador of the American and European Union
36:27 was shocked by the news of Dalima's case that they will still be watching.
36:32 And Salima Refran was shocked.
36:34 For Justice Secretary Jesus Crespin Emilia,
36:37 the court's decision to grant the former Senator Laila de Lima the right to live is a proof of the country's democracy.
36:45 It just shows the independence of the judiciary, what I've always been saying from the very beginning.
36:50 It just shows that there is a democracy.
36:52 Democracy is alive and well in our country.
36:55 We respect, respected and respect the findings of the previous administration.
37:03 We respect the previous prosecutors who were tasked to do this job.
37:07 And it is not for me to change their judgment or their point of view with regards to this.
37:13 We are also getting panic from the former Justice Secretary Vitalyano Aguirre III,
37:18 who is the Justice Secretary of the drug case in Dalima.
37:22 Senator Bato de la Rosa, a well-known ally of former President Duterte,
37:26 said he respects the court's decisions, but he is wondering.
37:32 I cannot really say with certainty that the case is weak because it withstood the time of President Duterte's term.
37:44 This is the time now.
37:46 It's getting dismissed and the bill is being passed.
37:51 I cannot say.
37:53 For one of the leaders of the opposition, former Vice President Lenny Robredo,
37:58 he has been waiting for this day for a long time, for the victory that the right and the truth always prevail.
38:03 The granting of bail to Dalima is being proven,
38:06 that there is no basis for the usual battles against her.
38:09 In a tweet, US Ambassador Mary Kay Carlson said that they will continue to monitor the case of Dalima until it is resolved.
38:18 European Union Ambassador Luke Varon also posted to X that he is completely anxious about Dalima's release from prison.
38:26 This is a good news for the rule of law in the Philippines.
38:30 This is a positive step in using justice.
38:33 Hopefully, the cases will be resolved soon.
38:37 The European Union is one of the most important parties to call for Dalima's release.
38:42 Former President Rodrigo Duterte has not yet responded.
38:45 For GMA Integrated News, Sanny Marafra, for 24 Hours.
38:54 Good news for the big-time rollback motorists on the price of some oil products starting tomorrow.
39:01 The diesel price is 3 pesos per liter, 70 centimos per liter of gasoline.
39:08 There is also a big discount on the price of kerosene, 2 pesos and 30 centimos per liter.
39:14 A ship sank near the coast of the Misamis Oriental.
39:23 The 448 passengers of the MV Filipinas Cagayan de Oro are on their way to Cebu.
39:28 They returned to the coast of Cagayan de Oro and according to the Maritime Industry Authority or MARINATEN,
39:34 the cargoes were tied loosely and the sides of the ship were sanded.
39:40 Tonight is the night for the great rise of Black Rider.
39:50 We will also get to know the new woman in the life of the character of Ludo Madrid, Elias.
39:55 Let's talk to Nelson Canlas.
39:57 After the long journey of Elias,
40:04 who returned to the redemption of some of his loved ones in life,
40:10 tonight, his rise will begin and justice will be sought for the evil done to him.
40:19 It's exciting because this is the beginning of the fight scenes we did.
40:24 This is the real fight, I think.
40:27 I got cut, all kinds of injuries I got here but I said it's worth it because the program is very good.
40:35 Of course, this is what we promised to the audience.
40:38 We want to give them a good action TV series.
40:43 We will also get to know the people of Bani, played by Yassie Pressman, who is a very brave woman.
40:49 The stories about Black Rider will be even better.
40:53 I'm very excited. I'm always nervous when there are things like this.
40:59 It's just that this is a new project and I hope people will like it.
41:03 I'm also very happy because I saw the comments from those who came out last week.
41:10 Thank you because everyone is happy.
41:13 Of course, there's always pressure but the good thing is there's pressure but there's also a challenge.
41:21 Not only will Black Rider tell the story of love,
41:25 the series will also show the real experience of many Filipinos.
41:30 Is Elias going to fall in love again?
41:32 That's what we should have waited for.
41:34 Let's see how it will start.
41:38 What do you think?
41:40 I also like Bani's character.
41:42 Of course, we saw that he was a thief but there's a reason why he did it.
41:48 And I guess that's the beauty of Black Rider.
41:51 They always tell the story of why they do things like that.
41:55 What's good is that Black Rider also shows the Filipino's survival mode.
42:02 Their fight for their family, their hard work for their work, to earn money.
42:09 It's really amazing.
42:11 Especially the stories of the travelers today.
42:14 It's really guilty when you see that that's what happens to them when they don't pay them.
42:21 Nelson Canlas updated on Shuby's Happenings.
42:25 And that's it for our Buenamanom Chikahan this week.
