00:00 [Police sirens]
00:06 Join us in the "Sasakini" (Sasakini is a Filipino word for "Sasakini" means "to be" in Filipino)
00:08 [Music]
00:16 It looks like tea, but it's actually a drug.
00:20 4 million pesos worth of tea was sold to a police station in Cotabato City.
00:26 The arrested police staff sergeant Mujib Betayo-Sepi is considered a high-value target.
00:31 He was also arrested by his partner, who was 63 years old.
00:35 They were charged with 4 million pesos worth of illegal shabu that was sold in a tea bag.
00:41 The two were now in jail at the Pidea Barm Jail Facility,
00:45 which was illegally owned by a group of people who operate in the vicinity of Monsitio and other parts of the region.
00:51 They are still not released, and the police has been in jail for more than a year.
00:58 [Music]
01:00 If not taken into account, the tonnette of vegetables from Benguet is being sold in Metro Manila.
01:06 It is being sold by traders, but the LGU in La Trinidad, Benguet is wondering,
01:11 "There is no over-supply of vegetables."
01:13 Mark Salazar is the witness.
01:15 [Music]
01:18 It is not an over-supply of vegetables.
01:21 It is located on the side of Kilometer 21 in Tublay, Benguet,
01:24 where many cabbages have been planted.
01:27 Anyone can pass through and get free vegetables as much as they want.
01:31 The farmers are also being given free vegetables from the truck.
01:35 Five tons of vegetables from Benguet are also in Linet Bernardo's house in Marikina.
01:43 He rescued these vegetables from a farmer who sold them to Metro Manila
01:50 because the traders in Benguet refused to take them.
01:53 I can't bear it. They haven't eaten yet.
01:57 There's no toll gate. I'm crying. There's no gas and no toll for the truck.
02:03 Many cabbages have been sold.
02:06 They were denied in Balintawak and Divisoria.
02:09 I was denied in Taguig and Pasig. I was denied again but I was denied in Tarlac and Mangasinan.
02:15 Before this, they approached me.
02:17 The first time they approached me, they threw it away.
02:20 I felt like I was denied the second time.
02:23 I felt like I was consensual.
02:26 Linet only has three to four days before the rescued vegetables are rotten and wasted.
02:32 That's why he posted the story that some of them were read.
02:36 Our vegetables are oversupplied.
02:39 This will be a big help if we can buy just a few and it will really help them.
02:45 We will try to encourage our community.
02:49 But the LGU of La Trinidad said that there is no oversupply of vegetables from Benguet.
02:55 What they noticed is the decrease of buyers from Manila and other places.
03:01 This is also affected by the importation of vegetables, especially carrots and other vegetables that are imported to our country.
03:13 Because the buyers here in Benguet will not go to Akyat because they have a supply in Manila.
03:22 The Provincial Board of Benguet is discussing if there is anything wrong with the estimated amount of vegetables planted and harvested during Christmas.
03:30 The GMA Integrated News is contacting the Department of Agriculture to answer questions about what is happening to the supply chain of vegetables.
03:40 In Dalaguete, Cebu, these vegetables are also given for free.
03:45 According to the uploader, a message reached him who is behind the delivery of vegetables and clarified that there is no oversupply.
03:52 These are rejected vegetables and cannot be brought to other places because they will just rot.
03:59 They bought these vegetables from the farmers as a help.
04:03 For GMA Integrated News, I am Mark Salazar, your witness.
04:24 More than 2 million devotees will be able to attend the Translation of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo tomorrow.
04:32 According to PNP, but before that, the devotees have been praying for three days for the kiss or the kiss of the Nazarene
04:39 that continues until this time in the Carino Grandstand.
04:42 May the hearts be well, healthy, protected and guided every day are some of the wishes of those who are praying for the kiss.
04:52 From the Carino Grandstand, witness, Katrina Song. Katrina?
04:58 Pia, it's 5 in the afternoon when the crowd started to increase here in the Carino Grandstand in Manila.
05:07 Earlier, the line for the kiss is only here in the Carino Grandstand.
05:11 Tonight, it reached P. Burgos in Rojas Boulevard.
05:19 Mothers are praying and kissing their children.
05:24 Some of them are among those who kissed the Black Nazarene here in the Carino Grandstand in Manila.
05:30 Yolanda Villaluna and her 13-year-old daughter, Rainier,
05:35 are praying for the kiss because of the feeling of the child who has hydrocephalus.
05:40 Because her illness is inborn, it's only Nazarene.
05:44 She can't walk before, her head is big, it's only Nazarene.
05:49 Rainier is also awake from the prayer in the Grandstand.
05:53 She is praying.
05:54 I hope I will be healed.
05:56 The missing child is the one who can go home,
05:59 the 87-year-old Katalina Gabayne.
06:03 Even though she was missing in the 1960s, she did not stop praying for the Black Nazarene.
06:09 I hope I can see my missing child.
06:12 I am also looking for him. I hope we can meet.
06:15 I am always praying for the Black Nazarene.
06:17 I pray every night. I am praying.
06:20 Marites D. Pasupil is praying for the protection for the missing child in the Black Nazarene.
06:27 Before, it used to hurt when it was falling and convulsing.
06:32 I am praying for this. I hope my child will not get sick.
06:38 Some are asking for guidance, like Lita Sedeno,
06:42 who is 75 years old and still having a hard time in life.
06:46 She is here now to ask for guidance.
06:48 If my child had a feeling, he was wrong.
06:54 If he gives me strength to continue praying, I will not have any hope.
07:02 This is a prayer for a happy family and for the well-being of the people who are here.
07:09 Those who are here tonight are waiting for the next transportation.
07:14 They have food and drinks and they are even offering a replica of the priest.
07:20 It only happens once a year and it is said that the Black Nazarene was a big part of their lives.
07:27 That is why they will bring her here.
07:30 Rescue groups are still on standby for those who need assistance.
07:35 Since January 6, we have been able to cater for around 39 medical cases.
07:42 These are the ones who only had a blood pressure check-up,
07:46 those who had chest pain, and those who were dizzy.
07:51 They were only staying here for a while.
07:55 At this time, devotees are still arriving here.
08:01 People are also gathering here at Quirino Grandstand.
08:04 The queue for the wedding was 3 hours earlier.
08:07 It is now 3 to 4 hours.
08:10 Those who are here are waiting for the mass that will be held later at 12 midnight.
08:15 After that, there will be a vigil before the transportation.
08:20 And live from Quirino Grandstand in Manila for Jimmy Integrated News,
08:25 I am Katrina Soin, your witness.
08:28 How about the situation in Manila where some roads are not accessible due to the preparation for the transportation?
08:37 From Quiapo, Saksi Live, Nico Wahe.
08:40 Nico?
08:46 That's why many roads are closed around Quiapo Church and Quirino Grandstand.
08:51 There are commuters who don't know that the roads will be closed,
08:54 so there are no vehicles and they are forced to walk.
08:57 Since 9 o'clock at night, the roads around Quiapo Church and Quirino Grandstand were closed as preparation for the transportation.
09:07 The canton of Cipalanga Street and Arlegui Street is now blocked.
09:10 Police are also stationed here to guard the transportation.
09:14 Ayala Avenue is also closed. City Hall of Manila will enter.
09:17 Some commuters seem to be waiting for nothing because they don't know that the roads will be closed at 9 o'clock at night.
09:23 They will just walk to where there is a vehicle.
09:27 Quezon Boulevard and Westbound Lane of Espana Boulevard will not pass.
09:31 The length of Bonifacio Drive from Anda Circle to P. Burgos Avenue is also closed.
09:36 Even Katigbak Drive and South Road will be entered by Quirino Grandstand.
09:40 The length of Ross Boulevard from Katigbak Drive to U.N. Avenue is also closed.
09:45 The roads passing Jones Bridge, MacArthur Bridge and Quezon Bridge are also closed.
09:50 The Finance Road from P. Burgos to Taft Avenue is also closed.
09:54 Even Maria Orosa Street from Calau to P. Burgos is also closed.
09:58 The length of Taft Avenue is also closed.
10:00 Just last night, the police chief, Major General Jose Melencio Nartates, was inspecting the area around the Church of Quiapo.
10:11 The number of devotees here in the Church of Quiapo is decreasing.
10:16 They are pushing each other to Quirino Grandstand.
10:20 And he has now postponed the last mass here in the Church of Quiapo before continuing it in Quirino Grandstand at 12 o'clock in the evening.
10:31 Live from the Church of Quiapo for GMA Integrated News, I am Nico Juage, your witness.
10:37 A viral video of a motorcycle entering SLEX was investigated, even though it is prohibited to teach.
10:44 According to the LTO investigation, the rider is a Coast Guard personnel.
10:48 Witness, Chino Gasto.
10:51 This is just a trip. I will enter the expressway.
10:56 I will bring a rider.
10:58 This video is now viral on social media where a rider of a motorcycle that passed under the bone entered the South Luzon Expressway.
11:06 It will be seen passing through the pass-through lane of Tol Plaza.
11:09 Expressway, expressway.
11:12 And the motorcycle was quickly stopped. The traffic enforcers who were driving the motorcycle were stopped instead.
11:19 It avoided the traffic and drove away.
11:22 Even though this rider escaped the enforcers of SLEX, it seems that he has nothing to do with the Land Transportation Office or LTO.
11:37 Based on the investigation of the Intelligence and Investigation Division of the LTO, the rider is a junior officer of the Philippine Coast Guard with rank N-SIN.
11:46 Under the RA-2000 or Limited Access Highway Act, it is strictly prohibited for expressways to have motorcycles that are lower than 400cc because of the number of vehicles passing through and for the safety of the riders.
12:02 The investigation of the PCG is now rolling on the incident and it is expected to face the LTO tomorrow.
12:09 The initial statement is that he's not the one. He said that he reposted the social media post.
12:19 So what we told him is that you have to face the LTO and the investigation that the Coast Guard is doing to clear his name.
12:28 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Chino Gaston, your witness.
12:32 The 11.4 million pesos worth of shabu was found in Illa Terminal 1 yesterday.
12:40 It is being investigated by Manila International Airport Authority or MIAA.
12:44 It was found in a construction in the Paliparan.
12:48 21.6 million pesos worth of shabu was also recovered in the same place last December.
12:53 MIAA thinks that these are related.
12:56 It is similar. They are packing it, including the port and sprinkling of powder.
13:06 The authorities are also investigating how illegal drugs were brought into the Paliparan.
13:11 The bidder for automated counting machines and ballot boxes for the 2025 midterm elections is under the post-qualification process of COMELEC.
13:22 C&D2 will oversee the legal, financial and technical establishment of the joint venture of Mirosystems, Integrated Computer Systems,
13:30 St. Timothy Construction Corporation and Centrepoint Solutions Technologies Inc.
13:35 The group bid for 17.99 billion pesos for the project that has an approved budget of 18.83 billion pesos.
13:43 The bidding was live-streamed and there were also observers, like the Democracy Watch group, who have a view on the capabilities of Mirosystems.
13:50 We asked for the MIRU Systems to be announced, but they did not.
13:55 For GMA Integrated News, I am Marisol Abduraman, your witness.
14:02 Signal jamming will be implemented in some parts of Manila on the day of the translation, according to DILG.
14:09 Inspections will also continue in the church and in the procession route until earlier.
14:14 Witness, Marisio Mal.
14:19 On the eve of the translation of the Black Nazarene, the PNP, BFP, MMDA and the Local Government of Manila,
14:28 together with Interior Secretary Benher Abalos, went around the area of the Church.
14:31 All the items that will be sent to the Church must go through an X-ray machine.
14:36 The devotees will also go through a scanner to make sure that there is no illegal entry.
14:41 We were intercepted and then we were turned over to the PNP.
14:44 They said it was limited and it was very limited.
14:47 More than 15,000 police and 2,000 firefighters will be watching.
14:51 There will also be fire trucks and ambulances.
14:54 Signal jamming will also be implemented in some parts of Manila, according to DILG.
14:59 Yes, there will be a signal jam tomorrow.
15:02 Tell your relatives that if you cannot reach, do not panic.
15:07 Although we are not receiving any threat from terrorist groups and other interest groups,
15:12 but nevertheless, our security preparations are anchored for the worst.
15:17 The devotees are hoping that the translation will be done soon.
15:22 That is why they are hoping that this year, the PNP estimate that 2.3 million devotees will be able to reach.
15:30 There is also a field hospital in Cartilia and the Local Government is ready to give more than 50,000 face masks.
15:37 They will be threatened that they will not wear them.
15:40 There are also clearing operations for those who are still selling on the streets of the translation.
15:45 In a country where almost 80% are Catholic,
15:49 a large part of the mistakes of many Filipinos are in the translation.
15:53 Where is the translation being done?
15:55 The translation from the Recollect Church in Intramuros to the Quiapo Church in the 1700s.
16:02 The GMI Integrated News showed the whole process tomorrow.
16:07 The laminated tempered glass was placed around it so that the devotees could not climb.
16:12 On both sides, the wires will be built while the rope will be pulled from below.
16:17 In the past decades, the devotees who are transgressing have changed.
16:22 The CD of devotion has not changed.
16:25 From the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s until the last translation before the pandemic in 2020.
16:36 At that time, more than 3 million were in one and the procession lasted for more than 16 hours.
16:43 The processions of 2012, 2017 and 2018 were longer, lasting for 22 hours.
16:51 But even though the devotees were terribly tired, hot, hungry and thirsty,
16:57 the prayer continued, and others wanted to give thanks to the next generation.
17:02 Her first baby was lost, but her second child survived.
17:10 But was it difficult to deliver?
17:12 Yes, it was difficult. It took almost 50-50.
17:15 What did you pray for the Nazarene?
17:19 I prayed that God would give us our nephew.
17:23 After the delivery, our family was very happy.
17:26 This is a spiritual and cultural celebration because it is also the face of our country.
17:33 So, let's help show that Filipinos have faith, unity and help.
17:41 For GMA Integrated News, Maris Omali, your Saksi.
17:45 It is possible that some parts of the country will be affected by the translation tomorrow.
17:52 The weather forecast is hopeful for Metro Manila.
17:56 It is possible that it will be hot or cloudy, but the chance of rain will not go away in the afternoon or evening.
18:02 It is cloudy and rainy in the Bicol region due to the shear line,
18:05 so be careful of those who will be affected by the translation of the Black Nazarene.
18:09 There is also a high possibility of rain tomorrow in Davao City.
18:13 Meanwhile, in Cagayan de Oro, it will be partly cloudy and there is also a chance of rain.
18:17 Based on the Metro weather, it is also possible that it will be rainy in other parts of the country,
18:22 especially the eastern section of Southern Luzon and some parts of Visayas and Mindanao.
18:26 One hundred pesos in exchange for a signature?
18:32 That is what Representative Ed Salagman promised to pay to sign the People's Initiative and amend the Constitution.
18:40 According to some officials, there was no payment.
18:43 Saksi, Tina Panginiban Perez.
18:46 In the photos posted by former Bicol Representative Alfredo Pido Garbin,
18:52 some may see the Mayor of Albay who was in a meeting on January 5.
18:56 He was invited to speak about the People's Initiative as the former chairperson of the House Committee on Constitutional Amendments.
19:04 In the last meeting, Albay First District Representative Ed Salagman said that he gave money
19:11 to pay P100 for each signature on the People's Initiative.
19:16 In that meeting, 50% of the 100 pesos per voter was given.
19:28 It was said that the balance of 50% will be followed.
19:33 We do not know where the funds came from, but what was shown in the meeting were the ranking members of the Aco Bicol party list,
19:45 along with incumbent Representative Jill Bongalon of the party list and the former congressman of the party list, Pido Garbin.
19:55 The funders were the Aco Bicol Coordinators.
20:04 One mayor received P125,000, while the other mayor received P142,500, which is 50% of the P100 per voter.
20:28 According to Salagman, three of his district mayors received the money.
20:34 The People's Initiative or PI is a way to amend the Constitution.
20:39 Under this, the people can file an amendment if they can get a signature that will not decrease the number of registered voters by 12%,
20:50 as long as each district will not decrease the number by 3%.
20:55 I'm just questioning the process of obtaining the vote or petition.
21:06 That's what I'm questioning.
21:08 Under the Omnibus Election Code, it is prohibited to sell or buy votes.
21:17 This is a criminal offense.
21:20 Senator Aimee Marcos, the chairperson of the Senate Committee on Electoral Reforms, also refused to buy the signature.
21:28 Garbin confirmed that he received a help from the League of Municipalities of the Philippines, ALBAI Chapter, but he was not given any money.
21:39 There was a meeting that transpired, but allegations on low of funds or money, that's a wild and baseless accusation.
21:50 In a statement, Ako Bicol Rep. Raul Angelo Jill Bongalon confirmed that he was in the area.
21:58 They are both resource persons of Garbin.
22:01 He also denied that he was given money.
22:05 Garbin and Bongalon sent a statement by LMP ALBAI Chapter President and Mayor Adrian Salceda,
22:13 where they confirmed that 15 of the 18 mayors who are looking for signatures for the petition were in agreement.
22:21 Mayor Salceda also denied that they were part of the fund.
22:25 The COMELEC said that the issue has not yet reached them.
22:30 The jurisdiction of the COMELEC has not yet entered here because it's not yet election period.
22:35 We have not yet been able to file anything.
22:38 For GMA Integrated News, Tina Panganiban Perez is your witness.
22:43 Those who want to watch MMFF movies can still catch up because the showings in cinemas are extended.
22:57 And American singer-songwriter Ariana Grande is cooking a comeback.
23:02 Here is Nelson Canlas' showbiz sexy.
23:05 Four years after her 2020 studio album "Positions," Ariana Grande is coming back for her latest single.
23:16 This January 12, she will release her new song "Yes" and on her IG, Ariana has a patispa wearing her red lipstick.
23:26 Jennylyn Mercado and Sian Lim are feeling mixed emotions because finally,
23:32 they will release their series "Love Die Repeat" starting January 15.
23:38 Finally, we're done.
23:40 They know what I went through when I was discovered.
23:44 I was pregnant when we were locked in for the first time for that show.
23:48 At least everything's done. We got to take our time and now it's for the audience to enjoy.
23:53 Present in the media conference today are the other cast members of the series.
23:58 Also present is GMA SVP for Entertainment Group Lilibet Razonable.
24:02 This 2024, Jennylyn will be a part of her jam-packed schedule.
24:07 That's why she's grateful that they were able to go on vacation last Christmas.
24:11 Moving forward is Sian after his breakup with Kim Choo.
24:15 Water.
24:17 Why are you drinking water? Is that edible?
24:20 Team Barda goes Barda Gulan for real in Family Feud.
24:24 In Barbie Forteza's team, she's with her daddy Tony.
24:28 David's teammate is with her.
24:32 The game was fun and close but David's team still lost with 378 points.
24:38 David's team is still in the Fast Money.
24:41 One spoon of sugar.
24:43 Their prize money went to GMA Kapuso Foundation.
24:48 Extended until January 14 is the cinema run of the films that were screened at Metro Manila Film Festival 2023.
24:56 MMTA is very grateful for the support received by the Filipino films.
25:01 According to MMTA Acting Chairman and MMFF Overall Concurrent Chairman, Atty. Don Artes,
25:09 the MMFF's profit reached 1 billion pesos this year.
25:15 For GMA Integrated News, Nelson Canlas is your witness.
25:19 Overloaded by the crowds of residents and guests of a resort in Maasim, Sarangani.
25:27 The expert explains why this island suddenly became crowded.
25:31 Let's watch.
25:32 You're on vacation and suddenly, a huge fish is in front of you.
25:42 It's a fish!
25:43 Those are "tamban" or sardinella that were caught by residents and guests in a resort in Maasim, Sarangani.
25:54 According to some fishermen there, they noticed the increase of "tamban" and it increased even more.
26:01 According to the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, this is one of the phenomenon that happened back then.
26:07 Why did it suddenly become crowded?
26:10 One possible reason is that there was upwelling.
26:13 It means that the cold temperature from the bottom of the water went down.
26:20 The possibility of upwelling is high because especially now in the summer,
26:25 the possibility of upwelling in our oceans is really wide.
26:34 It can also be "beaching" where big fish chase small fish and they go together to avoid the big fish.
26:43 In addition to the upwelling, it doesn't mean that there is an over supply.
26:48 In the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources of Penrose, Sarangani,
26:52 it's just a coincidence that it's the peak season of "tamban".
26:56 Thank you for watching.
27:01 For now, I'm Arnold Clavio and I'm Pia Arcangel for a bigger mission and a wider service to the people.
27:09 From GMA Integrated News, the news authority of the Philippines,
27:12 until tomorrow, we will be together.
27:15 Saksi!
