00:00 Good morning. Here are the first news updates of GMA Integrated News.
00:11 The prices of sugar in the markets are now reaching P100 or more per kilo.
00:16 That's why the Sugar Regulatory Administration wants to increase the suggested retail price.
00:22 Here are the first news updates of Bernadette Reyes.
00:29 This Christmas, the Philippines' diet is expected to be sweeter
00:34 from the long-awaited bibingka and puto bumbong every Christmas Eve
00:38 to the sweet snacks like noche buena.
00:44 The demand for breakfasts like cake, leche flan, and rice cakes is increasing.
00:53 The main ingredient of these is sugar.
00:56 The farm gate price of sugar is expected to drop by P10.
01:01 But when it comes to some markets and supermarkets,
01:04 the price is still low, reaching P100 per kilo or more.
01:10 Marites is still having a hard time pricing her food.
01:15 When the sugar price increases, we will increase it by P20.
01:19 That's why the Sugar Regulatory Administration wants to increase the suggested retail price.
01:25 We've been pushing for an P85 SRP.
01:28 The only hang-up I know is how will it be enforced.
01:34 So what others are saying is that SRP is only suggested.
01:38 So what do we do if it's not enforced?
01:40 In case it's implemented, the Department of Food and Industry is ready to monitor if it's implemented.
01:46 Even if the retail price is suggested, there's still a chance that we will implement it
01:52 because all of the manufacturers and retailers, that's the price in the market that they suggested.
02:01 Some retailers are favoring it so that the buyers will not be confused.
02:06 This is the first news. Bernadette Reyes for GMA Integrated News.
02:11 December 1, first Friday of the month, and it's the "Kiapo Day."
02:15 Let's look at the situation in the Kiapo Church.
02:17 We have the first live news.
02:19 See, darling, cry. Darling.
02:22 Good morning, Igan.
02:27 Until the last first Friday of 2023, the devotees of the whole Church Of Christ of Nazareth will not forgive their devotional service.
02:35 That's why, early in the morning, the people who came here to worship are already here.
02:43 This is how many devotees are here in Kiapo, Manila, even before the first mass at 4 a.m.
02:49 It's the first Friday of the month, that's why the devotees of the whole Church Of Christ of Nazareth are here.
02:54 They only heard the mass outside because the church is already full.
02:58 The couple Wilma and Anthony brought their own seats because they were expecting more worshippers.
03:05 Because it's the first Friday, there are a lot of people.
03:08 That's why we will prepare our seats to make sure.
03:12 Because when we arrived, there were already a lot of people inside.
03:16 Joel, who is a devotee of the Church Of Christ of Nazareth for more than 30 years,
03:19 will only go out first.
03:21 It's a big thing for him to be able to worship every Friday.
03:26 I feel good.
03:28 And, you know, he always listens to my prayers.
03:33 The family is always strong, if not for me, that's all.
03:38 I always pray for him.
03:40 Marie Luna and her neighbors brought their new replica of the whole Church Of Christ of Nazareth
03:45 to be worshipped here in the church.
03:47 Every Friday, she also worships, whether it's raining or sunny.
03:51 We feel good.
03:53 And the blessings that came to us are good.
03:57 And she is good to us.
03:59 All our wishes are being fulfilled.
04:02 Even though the first mass is not yet over, the line of people who will attend the next mass is already long.
04:07 [indistinct chatter]
04:12 Even though the line of devotees to the Church Of Christ of Nazareth is still long,
04:18 but for now, only those who are in line to attend the next mass, the 7 a.m. mass, will be allowed in.
04:24 There are also people from the Church Of Christ of Nazareth who are watching over here and ensuring the order.
04:30 That's the first news here in Manila.
04:32 I am Darlene Kai for GMA Integrated News.
04:35 This is the first news this Friday morning.
04:39 The much-awaited Queendom Live Concert is tomorrow.
04:44 The club is ready at the Newport Performing Arts Theater.
04:48 Rita Daniela, Jessica Villarubin, Marian Osabel, Hannah Preselias, Thea Asley, and Julian San Jose.
04:58 Aside from the level-up blending, they also prepared a powerful solo act.
05:02 Let's see who are their surprise guests.
05:05 Who could it be? It's so exciting.
05:08 The discussion of the Bicameral Conference Committee on the 2024 Proposed National Budget has started
05:14 with the decision of the Bicameral Confidential Funds of several civilian agencies.
05:20 We have first news from Ma'am Gonzales.
05:25 The confidential funds of the civilian agencies that were left by the Camera in this version of the 2024 National Budget,
05:32 could it be returned this time by the Senate and the Bicameral Conference?
05:37 I don't think so. The only one that was discussed is DICT, to fight cyber for increased cyber security.
05:43 DICT is trying to appeal for at least a portion of their confidential fund.
05:49 Aside from the passing of the confidential fund,
05:51 the Department of Information and Communications Technology was also supported by some Senators.
05:56 DICT is needed because it is fighting now in cyber warfare.
06:00 Many will be victims of cyber crimes.
06:03 The Senators were also asked if the confidential funds of the Office of the Vice President
06:08 and the Department of Education will be returned.
06:11 We fight for gun costs.
06:16 The former confidential funds of the DepEd were now used for other needs of the students.
06:21 It was put in classrooms or other capital outlay.
06:25 Until now, classrooms are still not enough.
06:27 The confidential and intelligence funds of other civilian agencies
06:31 are said to be given to intelligence and security agencies.
06:34 Defense, law enforcement agencies and DOAJ to buy information.
06:42 Army, armed forces and coast guard because of the West Philippine Sea issue.
06:47 We have to beef up and strengthen our naval assets as well.
06:52 The camera will study if the final version of the budget will include the provision put by the Senate
06:58 so that the transfer of P125 million from the contingent fund of the President
07:03 to the confidential funds of the OVP in 2022 will not be repeated.
07:07 The release from the contingent fund cannot be transferred to confidential funds for civilian agencies.
07:19 For now, Senator Sonny Angara and Congressman Zaldy Co. were authorized by both sides
07:24 to talk about the final version of the budget,
07:28 including the so-called...
07:30 Social services, we want to fight the inflation, the inflation in rice, in social services.
07:39 So that the problem of war or inflation will be added later, we need to be prepared.
07:47 They will also look at whether the P31 billion fund for the rehabilitation of the traditional jeepneys
07:54 requested by the Gabriela Women's Party List can be included.

11:55 According to the team leader of the project, Brendan Cabarobias,
11:59 they thought of making the Christmas tree rainbow-themed this year,
12:03 which is more attractive, especially for kids.
12:06 Rainbow design like this, to make the Christmas tree more colorful.
12:12 Not only for the Christmas tree, but also for our life.
12:15 So it's beautiful for kids, because it's not just a theme.
12:20 Under the Christmas tree, you will see the box you have cleaned,
12:24 just like the Santa Claus shop, full of toys.
12:27 The Christmas tree, which is called "Tree of Hope", is also picture-perfect.
12:31 The group is hoping that the Christmas tree will serve as a reminder to the public
12:38 that no matter what trials we face, we will not lose hope.
12:43 The Santo Niño has also been incorporated as a tribute to the birthplace of the miraculous child Jesus,
12:50 which is one of the works of the Church Of Christ.
12:52 The Christmas tree will remain standing until the end of January 2024.
12:58 Igan, it's getting dark here now, but later in the light,
13:07 the nightly activities and night market here in Fuentes Menil Circle will start.

13:35 The Department of Migrant Workers continues to monitor the families of 17 crew members
13:43 who were forced to board a ship that was hijacked by the Houthis in the Red Sea.
13:47 The DMW pointed out to the families of the seafarers while the Department of Foreign Affairs
13:53 was investigating the release of the crew members.
13:55 According to DMW Officer-in-Charge Hans Kakdak,
13:58 they are urging their social partners to take action so that the same thing will not happen to the crew members
14:06 as well as the owners of the ships and the groups of employers and workers.
14:13 What happened here in Galaxy Leader was an event that was outside of the high-risk area and zone.
14:24 So that basically means, if the area is a high-risk area,
14:28 the crew members, the seafarers will be informed in advance if the ship will pass through the high-risk area
14:37 and has the right to refuse.
14:39 In the Philippines, which is also the social media capital of the world,
14:44 it is no longer surprising to know that the country has high cell phone usage based on a study.
14:50 How often do Filipinos use their cell phones?
14:53 Find out on the "Street Hit It Live" of Bam Alegre.
14:57 Bam, how often do you use your cell phone?
15:00 Maris, good morning.
15:03 Looks like we're also here together.
15:05 It's not like we can't stop, we can't work or go to the beach.
15:09 Filipinos are using their phones more and there's a survey data that supports this.
15:14 This is the "Street Hit It".
15:15 After his Miss Universe journey, Michelle Marquez D will be busy with upcoming TV projects and guestings.
15:23 Rihanna is looking forward to her character in "Black Rider".
