00:39 Good morning! Here are the first news of GMA Integrated News.
00:43 El Niño is also experiencing an effect in some places in Pangasinan.
00:47 Some ponds there are no longer being able to release water because it is drying up.
00:51 First news is from Jasmine Gabriel Galvan of GMA Regional TV, One North Central Resort.
00:56 [music]
01:00 Sometimes, this pond is not able to dry up because the family of Carlos in Barangay Maasin, Mangaldan, Pangasinan,
01:07 are using the water from the pond to drink, wash and cook.
01:12 But this month, they were surprised because there is no longer water coming out of their pond.
01:18 Even though their neighbor's pond is dry, they believe that this is the effect of El Niño.
01:24 It is a big privilege for us because we get our water from there.
01:29 Because there is no water in the pond, they are just using the other pond that has a connection to Mangaldan Water District.
01:36 For now, the local government is not seeing any problem.
01:40 Only a small percentage depend on the pond or deep well.
01:43 Most of the households have a connection to water from the water district, while some have their own water source.
01:51 The LGU is also working with the water district to help connect the water to those who are far away.
01:58 Mangaldan Water District said that even though they have El Niño, they will not have a problem with the supply
02:04 because there are additional pumping stations that are being opened.
02:07 If it's not a pumping station, maybe it's a tank.
02:12 Actually, the target of the water district for the next 10 years is all of Mangaldan.
02:17 This is the first news.
02:19 Jasmine Gabriel Galvan of One North Central Luzon for GMA Integrated News.
02:24 There are evidence that former House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez is giving aid in exchange for signatures for the People's Initiative.
02:37 He's also teaching House Speaker Martin Romualdez, who is behind the People's Initiative.
02:44 Romualdez has repeatedly denied the initiative.
02:47 We have first news, Tina Panganiban Perez.
02:50 Martin Romualdez is just giving his initiative.
02:58 Despite his previous denials, House Speaker Martin Romualdez is still being taught by former Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez,
03:07 who is behind the People's Initiative.
03:11 He has already collected evidence on how he's giving aid in exchange for signatures,
03:16 which he will use in his petition against the People's Initiative.
03:21 While they're doing the signatures, I'm also documenting it so that when the time comes,
03:30 I can file a petition in the Supreme Court.
03:35 Even Senator Coco Pimentel, who is convinced that the Speaker has something to do with the PIL,
03:41 called Romualdez's cousin, President Marcos.
03:45 Why would the President allow his administration to be affected by this issue,
03:51 a People's Initiative, which is being used by members of Congress as a mode for the people.
03:59 The President should have nipped this in the bud.
04:02 We are trying to get Romualdez's signature, but he has repeatedly denied the People's Initiative.
04:10 So you didn't give any orders?
04:12 No orders.
04:14 Albay First District Representative Edsel Agman is studying the petition in Comelec.
04:21 He's the one who is being asked to buy the signatures.
04:25 In Bohol, Talibon Bishop Patrick Daniel Parcon and Bilaran Bishop Alberto Uy are trying to convince the public not to deceive the PIL signatories.
04:36 One of the PIL's supporters denied the Speaker had anything to do with their search for signatures.
04:43 The Speaker has no direct involvement.
04:46 As you will recall, he is just allowing this process to go through and let the natural course of it take its course.
05:04 They are also ready to face petitions against the People's Initiative.
05:09 This is the first news. Tina Panganiban Perez for GMA Integrated News.
05:15 In a letter to Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri yesterday,
05:20 House Speaker Martin Romualdez confirmed his support for the constituent assembly or CONAS that the Senate is pursuing.
05:28 Romualdez said they are just waiting for the Senate to approve the resolution on both Houses 6,
05:34 where the economic provision in the Constitution is included and is being amended to be adopted by the House.
05:41 The House is also ready to support the alternative People's Initiative that the Senate will pursue.
05:47 Romualdez gave the importance of cooperation and unity at this time.
05:53 Zubiri is also trying to get the signature in the letter.
05:57 [Music]
06:14 Only three percent of the jeeps in Metro Manila are not consolidated for the PUV modernization program,
06:21 according to the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board.
06:25 It's just more than six hundred thousand for the more than 22,000 registered jeeps in Metro Manila.
06:31 President Bongbong Marcos approved the extension of consolidation until April 30.
06:36 Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista reminded the operators and drivers that the last extension will be the one that will be charged for the construction of cooperatives and corporations.
06:46 [Music]
06:51 The extension will allow them to meet the consolidation requirement.
06:55 This will enable us to fast track implementation of the PUV modernization program.
07:03 We hope LTFRB and other concerned agencies will use the extension period to improve the program's guidelines in line with the race concerns, particularly here in Metro Manila.
07:19 [Music]
07:23 Alright guys, for those who missed or want to go back to the concert of Queendom Divas, the wait is over.
07:29 [Music]
07:47 The majestic musical event is coming to our television.
07:50 You can watch it later tonight on Queendom Live, the TV special, 9.35pm on GMA Network.
07:56 Watch the powerful and goosebump performances of the homegrown artists,
08:00 Senarita Daniela, Hannah Presilas, Thea Asley, Marian Osabel, Jessica Villarubin, and Julian San Jose.
08:08 For those who are abroad, you can watch it on January 28 on GMA Pinoy TV.
08:13 Wow, they are all so good. And they were all together.
08:18 I'll watch it later.
08:19 Overloaded.
08:20 For those who are not traveling to the country, the Special Action and Intelligence Committee for Transportation inspected the buses in Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange.
08:31 Live from Makapagal Boulevard, the first news is Bam Alegre.
08:36 Bam?
08:41 Good morning. The authorities are now conducting an operation against the colorum buses here in Paranaque.
08:47 The Special Action and Intelligence Committee for Transportation here in Makapagal Boulevard was dispatched early.
08:59 They are being formed by the Department of Transportation and the Philippine Coast Guard.
09:03 Their mission is to check for colorum buses on the road or those who are traveling with insufficient transportation documents.
09:10 They have stopped several buses to make sure that they are not traveling outside their route and that they have sufficient documents.
09:17 They are also serving as a deterrent for the illegal unloading of passengers in Makapagal Boulevard, especially those who are traveling from Cavite.
09:24 For those who are traveling, only PITX or Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange will go down and only go around Makapagal Boulevard.
09:31 Aside from the buses, they are also stopping several vans that are possibly traveling illegally.
09:38 This is our situation here in Makapagal Boulevard.
09:41 The road is clear because of the presence of traffic and there are still several buses, especially vans, that are trying to make sure that the passengers are not traveling because of the colorum.
09:55 This is the situation here in Makapagal Boulevard.
09:57 Bam Alegre for GMA Integrated News.
10:02 Rice is still expensive for the families in some places in Bicol.
10:06 Its price is now reaching P75 per kilo.
10:09 First news is from Bernadette Reyes.
10:12 Rice is now P67 in Nagas City.
10:17 But according to the Bantay Bigas Group, rice is now reaching P75 per kilo in other places in Bicol.
10:24 P60 is the lowest.
10:26 In Mindoro, a rice producing province, P58 to P60 per kilo of rice.
10:32 The government always says that there is a stock, our production is increasing, but the price of rice is still very high.
10:40 It's still increasing.
10:41 We expect that it will go down because our production is increasing.
10:45 We have importation.
10:47 In this store in Quezon City, P60 is also the highest price of rice.
10:52 It's hard because before, if we buy just P1,000, it becomes P1,300.
11:00 According to the Bantay Bigas, the Department of Agriculture does not feel that the consumers are saying that there are solutions to lower the price of rice.
11:09 When it's built, they will fix the post harvest facilities, they will fix the cold storage.
11:16 They are doing that. They are not rooting out the reason why we are continuously running out of food.
11:25 The Department of Agriculture said that the government is trying to help farmers by providing rice, water and machinery to increase the production of rice.
11:37 Last year, the Philippines recorded more than 20 million metric tons of rice.
11:43 The imported rice is still high, 600 to 700.
11:47 The mandate of the DA is really to have more productivity in our farms, to increase the local production of rice.
11:56 According to the Department of Agriculture, due to the effect of El Niño, the production of rice can go down this year.
12:03 But the government is working on ways to ensure that there is enough rice supply in the country.
12:09 We're talking with Vietnam for the five-year framework agreement.
12:13 But we are also diversifying the sources of rice beyond Vietnam and our neighbors.
12:20 Even canned sardines, which is one of the most affordable foods, is now expensive.
12:25 DTI has already approved two pesos or more for some brands.
12:30 DTI, a well-known canned sardines manufacturer, plans to launch Pinoy sardines or an alternative for those who want to buy.
12:39 At present, there is a bread version, so we have Pinoy Tasty and Pinoy Pandesal.
12:45 But at the expense of the Canned Sardines Association of the Philippines, it will take a few more months before it is launched.
12:51 But now, they are looking for ways to lower the price of the Pinoy sardines that will be launched.
12:58 We may be looking for new sources of tomato paste. We also want to work on vegetables, our spicing and flavoring items from agricultural products like arroz, pepper, etc.
13:16 This is the first news. Bernadette Reyes for GMA Integrated News.
13:24 Some senators have predicted the next victory of the Lotto jackpot in the past weeks.
13:29 Senators want to know if there was manipulation or a trick in the ball.
13:34 Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office of PCSO has an explanation and we have the first news from Map Gonzales.
13:41 A lucky winner was the winner of the winning combination of Mega Lotto 645.
13:48 The jackpot is worth more than 45 million pesos.
13:52 But when the Senate Committees on Games and Amusement and Ways and Means heard about the PCSO Lotto Games,
13:59 some senators asked why the jackpots in the Lotto Games are so consistent.
14:04 In less than one month, five games were hit simultaneously.
14:09 Yes, in less than a month. That's questionable.
14:11 We will have to look at this. Without augmentation, this is the natural accumulation of the jackpot from the bets.
14:18 The theory is that the betors have already attracted the jackpot.
14:24 Then, let's look at this. It's months before the jackpot was hit.
14:28 So what happened last December is really an anomaly.
14:32 Not just one game, but five games.
14:34 The Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center will investigate this.
14:39 The committee also subpoenaed the records of the Bureau of Internal Revenue
14:43 to see if this is true as a lucky and won jackpot.
14:47 In the GMA Integrated News, the Lotto Results website of PCSO
14:52 11 jackpots were hit in different Lotto Games.
14:57 The total of 11 jackpot prizes is more than 2 billion pesos.
15:02 The Grand Lotto 655 jackpot is the largest, worth more than 698 million pesos.
15:09 Super Lotto 649 jackpot is worth more than 640 million pesos.
15:14 Ultra Lotto 658 jackpot is worth more than 571 million pesos.
15:19 Super Lotto 649 jackpot is worth more than 310 million pesos.
15:24 The jackpot is for loan betors.
15:27 The chance of winning in betting in different Lotto Games is 1 in more than 5 million pesos
15:33 up to 1 in more than 40 million pesos.
15:36 So there's a better chance of winning the jackpot, 1 in 15,000, than the jackpot.
15:41 Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office or PCSO is guessing the jackpots that they manipulate the results.
15:48 Particularly, the controversial 649 Grand Lotto,
15:51 where more than 640 million pesos was won by one person who participated online.
15:57 There are those who reported to Senator Rafi Tulfo that PCSO is a possible jackpot.
16:02 Some are saying that you have a plenum to bet all possible combinations.
16:17 And you did that.
16:22 You spent 280 million pesos.
16:26 Minus 640 million pesos, 649 Grand Lotto was won online.
16:33 You can manipulate the machine to have automatic sequence betting.
16:45 In a matter of minutes or hours, all numbers can be bet.
16:54 We would like to assure you that you can never, never manipulate it.
17:00 That's why we are allowed to bet, Mr. Chair.
17:02 Even I can bet because it's beyond me.
17:05 Betting on all combinations is the right of anybody.
17:09 It doesn't guarantee anything.
17:12 Assuming somebody betted on all the combinations, which is allowed,
17:18 if you can, it doesn't even guarantee that you will get the jackpot by yourself.
17:25 Assuming you are two, three, four, that's number one.
17:29 Number two, our record shows that all combinations were not bet on the day of the bet.
17:36 Tulfo also asked if it's possible for the participants to be in a dispute if the jackpot was won.
17:41 PCSO said that there is a commission on audit that is included in the winning.
17:46 There is also a CCTV in the room where it's being done.
17:49 But Tulfo said...
17:51 Now, for example, this is wild imagination.
17:55 All of them bet.
17:58 For example, those who have root access can still manipulate it.
18:06 I talked to the platform.
18:08 Chiefs, bosses, friendships, be quiet.
18:13 We will replace this one with the one with root access.
18:19 We will replace it. We will show that there is a winner.
18:23 It's possible.
18:25 It's possible.
18:28 GM Robles said that the betting will be cut off at 8.30 p.m. before the draw at 9 p.m.
18:34 The bets are already divided so it cannot be changed or added.
18:39 The ball will be in the stand alone almost in real time.
18:43 I don't think it's possible because it's not online anymore. It's in the drive.
18:48 Right now, we don't have any evidence of fraud.
18:51 The Senate will continue their investigation.
18:54 This is the first news.
18:55 Mav Gonzales for GMA Integrated News.
18:58 After the Sinolog and Ati-Atihan, the festival was held this weekend.
19:03 Security is tight for the celebration.
19:06 Live from Iloilo City, we have first news.
19:09 Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV, One Western Visayas.
19:13 Kim?
19:15 I can feel it.
19:21 The city of love, Iloilo City, is feeling the fever.
19:26 The people of Iloilo, including the visitors, started to march and enjoy the delicious food that is called "Tatak Ilongo".
19:34 Two days before the Tribes Competition,
19:42 the rehearsals and blockings of the competing tribes were already underway to distribute the different lessons in the city.
19:49 Their supporters did not miss the chance to watch their delicious performance in the judging area.
19:56 Before the Tribes Competition this week,
20:02 the visitors to the food festival also came to taste the "Tatak Ilongo" of the food.
20:08 This proves why UNESCO recognized Iloilo City as the creative city for gastronomy.
20:15 Iloilo City has the best food ever in the Philippines, maybe even the world. It's awesome.
20:22 We eat here at night because the food is delicious.
20:27 The "pantat", "inasal" and "sisig" are delicious.
20:32 While the visitors are enjoying, the authorities are ensuring that the celebration is peaceful.
20:39 In the thousands of security forces, including the police, other law enforcement agencies and force multipliers are spread in different parts of the city.
20:49 Yesterday, the send-off ceremony was held at the Iloilo Freedom Grandstand in the headquarters of the Police Regional Office 6.
20:56 I want to assure everyone that the Philippine National Police,
21:01 along with our counterpart in other law enforcement services, is fully prepared and ready to fulfill our duty in maintaining peace, order and public safety throughout this momentous occasion.
21:20 The security forces are facing a big challenge this year because their signal shutdown was not completed.
21:29 The most important inspection is expected to be carried out, especially at the entrance of the festival sites.
21:35 Backpacks are not allowed to be brought, as well as the things that can be seen.
21:40 There is a gun ban in the entire city that is being implemented from January 19 and will last until Monday, January 29.
21:48 Meanwhile, the replica of the image of Señor Santonio de Cebu was brought to the city on Wednesday, which was immediately surrounded in different parts of the city.
21:57 Later this afternoon, the Flovial and Solemn Foot Procession will be held.
22:02 At 12 noon, the procession of boats will start at Parola Wharf.
22:07 Only 50 percent of the capacity of the fiber boat can be used.
22:11 A ritual will be held when arriving at Mulya Luna Street before the Solemn Foot Procession starts towards Esnart, Jembasa and back to San Jose Parish Placera.
22:21 In Flovial, if you cannot ride, you will not be allowed to ride because it is a limited fiber boat.
22:31 In the entire Coast Guard, there is no ticket, no boarding.
22:41 IGAN, the public is being warned by the PCG and organizers that they are not allowed to ride or join the Flovial procession.
22:53 Later this afternoon, the minors, senior citizens, PWDs and even the pregnant women will be allowed to join.
23:00 IGAN
23:01 Thank you very much, Kim Salinas.
23:05 A few groups will hold a prayer rally in Davao City to support the signing of the People's Initiative to prepare the Constitution.
23:13 Davao City Councilor Conrado Baluran said that 50,000 individuals are expected to attend the prayer rally on January 28.
23:21 Last week, residents said that they were given claim stubs by those who are signing in exchange for assistance.
23:29 Aside from Davao City, the purchase of signatures in various places in the country is also being repeated.
23:34 [Music]
23:40 Meanwhile, today, the Antipolo Cathedral or Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage is officially declared an international shrine.
23:48 Here is the first live news of Ian Cruz.
23:51 [Music]
23:53 Ian, good morning.
23:54 [Music]
23:56 Yes, Ivan, he is expecting more devotees here in Antipolo because of the upcoming solemn declaration as an international shrine of the Antipolo Cathedral.
24:07 Ivan is very happy with what is happening here because of the parade that is being held by various groups,
24:14 including the drum and lyre in various parts of the city.
24:19 Ivan, at 8 p.m., the position of Our Lady of Antipolo is expected to be moved from Sacristinto to the front of the cathedral,
24:28 one of the sides of the cathedral, the coronation rite.
24:31 First, Pope Lucio Charles John Brown will be holding the mass with the Filipino bishops.
24:38 It is normal that the Antipolo Cathedral became an international shrine.
24:41 On March 25 of last year, it is now more known as the International Shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage.
24:47 In an announcement of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines,
24:50 the CBCP will remove a decree from the Vatican that the Antipolo Cathedral will become an international shrine.
24:57 The Antipolo Cathedral is the first international shrine in the country, the 12th in Asia, and the 11th in the world, and in the CBCP.
25:04 On March 25, when the image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage was taken,
25:09 she left Acapulco, Mexico, riding a galleon, almost 400 years ago.
25:15 The galleon was about to be burned by a storm in the Pacific Ocean,
25:21 but the image of the saintly figure in the Philippines arrived in 1626,
25:26 and since then it has been called Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage.
25:31 Some streets around the Antipolo Cathedral are closed due to the parade and ceremony that is taking place here.
25:41 We will continue to follow the events from here.
25:45 This is the first news from Antipolo.
25:47 I am Ian Cruz, reporting for GMA Integrated News. Back to you, Ivan.
25:52 Thank you very much, Ian Cruz.
25:54 Definitely slay!
