00:13 Good morning. Here are the first news updates of GMA Integrated News.
00:18 Today, the resolution of both Houses 7, which is a long-term amendment, will be sent to the plenary of the Camera.
00:25 The economic provisions of the 1987 Constitution will be discussed.
00:30 I will now ask Representative Jefferson Kong who will not be absent from discussing any political amendments.
00:37 The discussion will be about the expansion of foreign ownership in the advertising, education, and public utility sector.
00:45 According to House Senior Deputy Speaker Aurelio Gonzalez Jr., the target of approving the RBH 7 is to be read on Wednesday.
00:54 He is a counterpart whose resolution of both Houses 6 is still being heard by the Senate Committee.
00:59 It is a big challenge to get a sufficient vote for this, especially since there are four senators who are against the charter change.
01:08 [Music]
01:12 The National Foreign Affairs Office, which is a member of the oil tanker's crew, has returned home.
01:17 It was formed by an armed group in Oman last January.
01:20 According to one of them, they left eight of their companions and they are in good condition.
01:26 On January 11, the oil tanker St. Nicholas in the Gulf of Oman, which is an individual armed group from Iran,
01:34 was in the process of negotiating until the OFWs were released in February.
01:39 Meanwhile, President Bombom Marcos called for respect to the freedom of navigation.
01:45 This was followed by the attack of the Houthi group on a ship in the Gulf of Aden,
01:50 where two Filipinos were injured and two others were wounded.
01:54 Since November, the Houthi group has continued to attack ships in the Red Sea.
02:00 The President said that the government will continue its actions to ensure the safety of the Filipino seafarers.
02:09 A colorful and beautiful work was presented at the Pistang Sinig Art Fair in Antipolo.
02:15 It aims to promote the work of local artists in the city.
02:19 We have first news from Vua Nakino.
02:21 [Music]
02:28 Music and Sinig at Antipolo.
02:31 It was presented at the Pistang Sinig, an art fair that aims to promote the local artists and artisans of the city.
02:38 We're just here to jive and just to collaborate and to come together celebrating art.
02:45 Visual arts made by Artipolo Group, Inc. was displayed.
02:49 Bags made by Antipolo inmates, Pinoy Pasalubong, and sustainable and organic products.
02:56 A photographer was also using an old street box camera.
03:00 Antipolo City LGU also wanted to promote their city as a wedding destination.
03:05 That's why this Florist Garden is their venue for the Pistang Sinig.
03:09 There are so many beautiful churches in Antipolo City.
03:14 This is also where you can find the first international shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage.
03:22 We want to pay tribute to the artists who are here.
03:25 Florist Garden started last year and this year we are very happy that Antipolo accepted us.
03:34 We are promoting the Filipino, Antipolo artists.
03:38 Florist Garden in Antipolo, now an events destination, especially for weddings.
03:43 And when it comes to weddings, of course, they can find delicious food.
03:48 We continue to promote Philippine products like vegetables, fruit trees, and this is what Antipolo after all is known for.
04:01 Nice nature and surroundings and it's great to see all the arts and crafts that are here today.
04:09 Everyone also enjoyed the OPM hits played by the Antipolo City Band.
04:14 Carolina Bamboo Garden was also open to the public from 1pm to 3pm.
04:19 This is the first news. Vonna Kino for GMA Integrated News.
04:25 The Ramadan or the month of Muslims' gathering has started tomorrow according to the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos.
04:31 In Quiapo, Manila, they already cleaned up the Golden Mosque and around it, they are preparing for Ramadan.
04:37 The same is also in Zamboanga City.
04:39 They are also preparing for Iftar or the celebration at night or at sunset.
04:46 President Bumbong Marcos is also involved in the celebration of Ramadan.
04:50 For now, there is no declaration of holiday yet for this to start.
04:54 The most worrying is that the effects of El Niño will be more severe in the coming months.
05:02 According to the Task Force El Niño, only a small percentage of the country will be saved from the severe effects of the drought.
05:10 That is the first news of Darlene Kay.
05:20 Only four provinces in the Philippines will be saved from the effects of El Niño according to the Task Force El Niño.
05:29 In the coming months, it is expected that the effects of El Niño will be more severe in the country.
05:36 We will still feel the heat until March, April and May.
05:40 So, based on the projections, it will affect around 78 provinces.
05:47 According to the latest forecast, 50 provinces will experience the effects of El Niño,
05:53 particularly those that are a few months below normal rainfall.
05:57 24 provinces will experience drought.
06:01 These are the places that experienced more than 60% reduction in average rainfall in the last three months.
06:07 In fact, El Niño is already weakening according to the forecast.
06:12 But that does not mean that its effects will be reduced in our country.
06:16 The temperature of the sea is already dropping.
06:19 So, that is also what we are saying about weakening El Niño.
06:22 But despite the weakening of El Niño, the hot temperature of the sea is still there.
06:28 So, there is a high possibility that more places will experience drought.
06:34 The forecast also said that April is the most hot season in the country, especially in Northern Luzon.
06:42 According to NDRRMC, last week, El Niño is already spending more than P1 billion in the agriculture sector.
06:51 The government is also assuring that our food, water and energy supply is sufficient.
06:58 The task force El Niño is also working with various government agencies to monitor the situation and provide assistance to those affected.
07:08 I am not saying that the figures that are entering the market are small.
07:12 I am not saying that the extent of the impact or damage of El Niño is small or lesser.
07:19 But because of the preventive measures, interventions and mitigation measures of the government,
07:25 before we experienced the strong and mature El Niño, we reduced it a bit.
07:31 This is the first news.
07:34 Darlene Cai for GMA Integrated News.
07:38 The Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense of the Armed Forces of the Philippines has already started.
07:43 More than 100 Navy Reservists have joined the Basic Military Training as part of the preparation for any threat to the Philippines.
07:50 We have the first news from Chino Gaston.
07:53 More than 100 Navy Reservists from Batanes joined the Basic Military Training.
08:01 According to the order of the Department of Defense, the protection of the north of Luzon should be strengthened.
08:06 Along with the training of the rifles, combat training and other doctrines of the soldiers.
08:12 But according to the Northern Luzon Command, the reservists and remaining civilians were not armed.
08:18 In compliance with the order of our East Indy that we need to upgrade or intensify our defense posture in the north,
08:27 the training of the reservists is part of the compliance of our Philippine Navy.
08:34 I hope that it will not happen, for example, that there will be a war.
08:37 We will not get a pool of soldiers who are ready to fight.
08:42 Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense is what the Armed Forces of the Philippines calls in preparing for threats from outside.
08:49 Even though it is far from Batanes, in the parts of the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines,
08:54 where China's harassment is repeated, it is said that it is better to be prepared.
09:00 We will deepen our country's defense depth, thus enhancing of course the defense of our archipelagic territory.
09:08 This is of course in line with the realization that number one, we have an external threat in the form of a very expansive and coercive power up there,
09:19 that happens to have the largest navy in the world.
09:22 According to the maritime security expert, Ray Powell,
09:24 this Thursday in Bajo de Masinlok, the two China Coast Guard vessels and four Chinese maritime militia ships in the BRP Malabrigo
09:34 blocked, stuck and chased for 21 hours or almost one day.
09:38 In the automatic identification system data provided by GMA Integrated News,
09:42 the BRP Malabrigo, which is blue in color in the AIS tracking system,
09:47 was stuck several times, was turned upside down and blocked.
09:51 The PCG was sent to the sea to get closer to the Bahura and the Philippine fishermen there.
09:57 But when the BRP Malabrigo was stuck twice, it was also stuck twice and was chased.
10:04 The BRP Malabrigo returned to Manila last Friday, but the PCG has not yet confirmed the incident.
10:12 They certainly came directly at the BRP Malabrigo and challenged its ability to get to Scarborough Shoal.
10:22 And so, you know, I think what was clear from the data was any attempt to get even closer to Scarborough Shoal
10:31 for the BRP Malabrigo would have been extraordinarily difficult.
10:34 The Chinese embassy has not yet announced the incident.
10:37 This is the first news. Chino Gaston for GMA Integrated News.
10:42 In the last chance to say goodbye and say goodbye to the veteran actress Jacqueline Ese,
10:48 her family, friends and colleagues.
10:51 Among them, Gabby Eigenman, who was left with an unforgettable memory of her Aunt Jane.
10:57 Here is the first news of Aubrey Carampel.
11:04 On the last night of the funeral of the actress Jacqueline Jose O'Mary Jane Gok,
11:08 her youngest son Gwen Garimond came from America.
11:12 Her friends and colleagues, including Tom Rodriguez, also came and visited.
11:18 There was also Andy Eigenman's brother, Sid Lucero, and cousins Ryan and Jeff Eigenman.
11:24 Another brother of Andy, Gabby Eigenman, remembered the closeness of the veteran actress.
11:30 I was the one who ran away from Andy. I was the one who borrowed from Andy, Uncle Jane.
11:35 When there is a family gathering of Eigenmans, I would step up and represent that I borrowed Andy.
11:44 Gabby was one of the first ones Andy called about what happened to his mother Jane.
11:50 And he immediately went to the actress' house where he found no life.
11:55 Jacqueline died on March 2, along with Gabby's birthday.
11:59 It was one of the most unforgettable moments for Gabby about her Aunt Jane.
12:04 How she was as a mother. It may not be 100% perfect.
12:10 It was hard because of course Andy wanted to have a life. Gwen also wanted to have a life.
12:18 Isn't that the best gift that Uncle Jane gave? Because they learned how to be independent.
12:24 Gabby confirmed that one of the things she talked about was the transfer of actress' grandchildren to Siargao where Andy lived.
12:32 Andy said, "Let's go home, Mother." That's what I will never forget.
12:36 That hit everyone, especially me. "Let's go home, Mother." It means a lot.
12:42 The inurnment ceremony for the actress. The family asked to be private.
12:48 This is the first news. Aubrey Carampel for GMA Integrated News.
12:54 Definitely a perfect night, Ed Sheeran's Mathematics Tour in the country last Saturday.
13:10 Cheerio was enjoyed by the award-winning singer-songwriter.
13:15 The sparkle couple of Jerry Gonzalez and Rebia Mateo were also there.
13:20 Even the one-armed dream star, Chucky Dreyfus.
13:23 The opening act was the English singer-songwriter, Callum Scott.
13:28 And the Filipino indie folk band, Ben & Ben.
13:32 In one post, it was like a dream for Ben & Ben to have Ed on one stage.
13:38 Even before the concert, Ed and Callum were jamming Ben & Ben in Filipino style with karaoke.
13:46 That's a win. I saw that video.
13:50 It's on his Instagram, I can't share.
13:53 Yes, it's so fun.
13:54 From Germany, President Bongbong Marcos for a working visit where he is expected to help some high-ranking officials and business leaders.
14:03 Live from Berlin, we have the first news, Rafi Pima. Rafi?
14:06 Susan, last night we were here in Berlin where President Bongbong Marcos is expected to come tomorrow with the first-line government officials and business leaders.
14:22 Later in the afternoon, President Bongbong left for his first state visit or working visit here in Germany with the business leaders.
14:32 On Tuesday in Berlin, he started his activities where he is expected to meet German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and business leaders.
14:40 It is expected that there will be coordination between the Philippines and Germany to improve the cooperation between the two countries when it comes to the maritime sector.
14:49 President's lead in the Filipino community here in Berlin will not be absent.
14:54 According to the ambassador of the Philippines here in Germany, Irene Susan Atividad,
14:58 President Bongbong Marcos' visit here is just right because this year marks the 70th anniversary of the diplomatic relationship between the two countries.
15:07 Almost a decade after World War II, the diplomatic ties between the Philippines and Germany were restored.
15:14 According to Ambassador Atividad, Germany is important for the Philippines, especially because of their support for peace and development in Mindanao.
15:21 Germany is also one of the first countries to condemn the violent and dangerous actions in the West Philippine Sea against the maritime assets of the Philippines.
15:30 Aside from the strengthening relations between the two countries when it comes to climate change and labor,
15:35 more than 35,000 Filipinos are working, studying and training here in Germany.
15:41 Here is a part of the statement of the ambassador of the Philippines here in Germany.
15:46 This is a working visit that's business focused.
15:51 So a big part of the president's program is business oriented.
15:56 He will address the German business community and inform them of all the reforms that the administration has undertaken to attract foreign investments into the country.
16:15 Aside from Berlin, the next visit will be to Prague, Czech Republic, where the Czech President will be visiting,
16:24 as well as his Prime Minister, the President of the Chamber of Deputies and his Senate President for the next visits.
16:33 That's all for now from Berlin, Germany. Susan.
16:36 Thank you very much, Trophy Tima.
16:40 77% of Filipinos are ready to defend the Philippines from any threat from foreign countries, according to a survey.
16:48 Live from Caloocan, we have the first news, James Agustin. James, good morning.
16:54 Maris, good morning. If you ask our fellow Filipinos who are passing by here in Edsa Carousel, in the Monument in Caloocan,
17:04 they are ready to defend our country from any trouble from the Philippines and foreign enemies.
17:12 That's also the result of a survey.
17:15 We need to defend the country of the Philippines because every Filipino has the right to live, not just the way our country is.
17:30 I'm a Filipino. We need to defend our country if something like that happens. As a Filipino.
17:37 I'm willing because this is my country. This is where I was born.
17:41 That's one of the topics we discussed in the question of whether there will be any trouble between the Philippines and foreign enemies.
17:49 Are you ready to fight for your country?
17:51 That's in line with the result of the mass survey of OCTA Research,
17:55 where 77 percent of Filipinos said they are ready to defend our country, while 23 percent said no.
18:04 The majority said yes in Mindanao, while the lowest in Visayas.
18:08 In the age group, many said yes to those aged 45 to 54, while the lowest were those aged 65 to 74.
18:18 The survey was conducted from December 10 to 14.
18:21 The time when the Chinese Coast Guard flooded the ships of our country,
18:26 which were carrying out resupply missions in the West Philippine Sea.
18:29 Armed Forces of the Philippines, or AFP, commissioned a survey,
18:33 where 1,200 respondents joined the face-to-face interview.
18:38 There's a margin of error of plus or minus three percent.
18:41 If the security guard, Jonjon, is asking how he can be used as part of his job,
18:47 he should be ready to defend our country at any time.
18:52 Our job is to protect lives and properties, including the Filipinos, our fellow Filipinos who are defending our country.
19:04 But some are asking the government to be used to it.
19:08 If we are given a chance, a power to fight, for example, if we are given a gun to fight, then we will do it.
19:16 In other countries, they have a little habit. Maybe here, maybe it can be done.
19:22 Meanwhile, Marie, being a citizen is not only measured by our readiness to defend our country.
19:34 And we also have many fellow Filipinos, even in their daily life, in simple ways,
19:40 we can show our love for our country.
19:43 That's the first news from Caloocan. I'm James Agustin for GMA Integrated News.
19:49 Igan, you're up first in the news.
