00:00Let's go!
00:02Let's go!
00:06Join us in our discussion on Saksi!
00:13A senator, Bambang Mayor Alice Guo, was mocked and her information about the illegal Pogo was revealed.
00:21According to a congressman, the ones Guo will trust are irreplaceable.
00:26Saksi, Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:31Torture, human trafficking, and more.
00:34Amidst the various crimes committed against the Pogos,
00:38Chinese Ambassador Wan Shilian and Executive Secretary and Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission Chairman Lucas Bersamin
00:47helped in the fight against transnational crime.
00:52According to BAOK, China thanked the Philippine authorities
00:57for their illegal offshore gambling and for helping the Chinese nationals who were victims.
01:03Two Chinese nationals and seven Jandos who were involved in the Pogo raid in Porak, Pampanga, were also accused of human trafficking
01:16by the Pogos in Bambang, Tarlac, including suspended Mayor Alice Guo.
01:24In the middle of the investigation, after the National Bureau of Investigation
01:29investigated the fingerprints of the Mayor and the Chinese national, Guo Huaping,
01:34who is just one person,
01:36the acting mayor of Bambang, Tarlac said that they are just following the Senate's investigation.
01:43Now, all the departments of the National Bureau of Investigation are in the Senate.
01:51They are investigating the Mayor.
01:54So, whatever results we see, we will follow the right process.
02:01Senator Sherwin Gatchalansi-Guo set up to help the authorities
02:06and split the illegal activities of the Pogos in the country
02:11so that he can reduce the responsibility of several people
02:15who were involved in the Pogo operation in Bambang and Porak, which is connected to Manok.
02:22The House Committee on Dangerous Drugs Chair Ace Barbers also mocked Guo for speaking,
02:28but he said that there should be no exchange for his telling the truth.
02:32If he is really a Filipino who loves his country,
02:36and he should help our government,
02:39there should be no accountability because it's just like condoning the crime.
02:44I will say that I will work with him, but I will not block him.
02:47Comelec helped the NBI to gather evidence.
02:52The Comelec Legal Department will also meet with the Office of the Solicitor General
02:57regarding the plan of co-warrantor petition or visa cancellation for his victory as mayor.
03:04For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo is your witness.
03:11Before the witness, the man apologized after getting wet and wet
03:17from a rider in Watawata Festival in San Juan.
03:20Witness, Nico Wahe.
03:25This man has been on social media for several days
03:28because he got wet from a rider using a water gun
03:32that seems to be floating in the middle of the Watawata Festival in San Juan.
03:36Mayor Francis Zamora even asked the captain of their barangay to find him.
03:40Earlier this afternoon, Mayor Zamora himself faced him in the media
03:44and asked to apologize for his behavior.
03:46Not only to the rider, but he also seemed to have no regret.
03:50Everyone, I am asking for your forgiveness for what I have said to you.
03:55Especially to the rider, I am asking for your forgiveness
03:59and I want to see you personally.
04:02I want to ask for your forgiveness.
04:06He said that he received a lot of death threats.
04:09I am also stressed.
04:11What kind of threats are coming out of me?
04:16Especially to my family.
04:19I don't want them to be affected.
04:21If they are angry with me, I will be the one to be affected.
04:25Because my family is also affected.
04:28Fake bookings or those who deliver various items to his address should also be stopped.
04:34The rider and the seller are the ones who are affected.
04:37Mayor Zamora also insisted that if the video will be released,
04:40there will be no violation of the ordinance.
04:42But that does not mean that he is safe from any complaints.
04:45If the rider who was attacked broke his cell phone or laptop,
04:53he can be charged with reckless imprudence resulting to damage to property.
04:58But that depends on whether this rider will go here to file a complaint.
05:05Zamora also called again to all affected by the reading
05:09who went to the City Hall to file a complaint.
05:12The local government will also amend the ordinance related to the Wata Wata Festival.
05:17For GMA Integrated News, Niku Wahe, your witness.
05:22According to the Bureau of Customs, more than 4,000 return boxes have arrived
05:27that have not yet been claimed since the last part of 2023.
05:32Customs and other agencies are studying what can be done
05:36to avoid abandonment of return boxes.
05:39Witness, Darlene Cai.
05:44Delivering return boxes is the way of the OFWs to make the family happy in the Philippines.
05:50Jennifer, who is an OFW in Kuwait, is working hard to fill every box.
05:56That's why she was so excited to send the three return boxes last year.
06:02Because we are far from here, we are far from our family.
06:07That's why we just want to give what we want.
06:11What we want, we can earn here, we can buy, we can send it all to the Philippines.
06:16However, it's been a year since the return boxes she sent arrived.
06:22According to Jennifer, someone approached her to ask for a cheap delivery.
06:27But after she gave the return boxes, she didn't hear from her.
06:32It's really hard, ma'am.
06:34It's really hard.
06:35Until now, it's been 10 months, it's been 11 months.
06:38It's already July, it's been 11 months.
06:42It's been 11 months now.
06:44It's really hard, we can't take it anymore.
06:46What's inside, it's already being destroyed.
06:50Chocolates, food, it's already being destroyed inside.
06:54That's why we are excited.
06:58We already have something to send to our family.
07:00The details of Jennifer's delivery are already in the Bureau of Customs.
07:05But Jennifer is not alone.
07:08Hundreds of OFWs have experienced that the deliveries cannot reach their families.
07:14Here in the warehouse of Portnet Logistics CFS in Old Panadero Street in Santa Ana, Manila,
07:19the unclaimed return boxes are being packed.
07:23According to the Bureau of Customs, more than 770 unclaimed return boxes can be claimed here.
07:30All of them are from Kuwait.
07:32Many have already been obtained after being traced and contacted by the BOC.
07:37Now, only 290 boxes are left.
07:40But there are more than 4,000 unclaimed return boxes
07:45that were processed in the last part of 2023 to be found by the owners.
07:51Why is this happening?
07:53According to the BOC, it is not proper to talk to the consolidator
07:57or the company that receives the boxes abroad and not the consolidator that is received here in the Philippines.
08:03What's happening is, those who are contracted here,
08:06either they don't know that they were contracted,
08:09meaning that they were not formally talked to when they were told to talk to other countries,
08:13or they were not paid.
08:14So what's happening now is, these return boxes are abandoned and are not being delivered to the OFWs.
08:23This is still happening in 2015, but the number of incidents has increased in the past year.
08:28At least in the incidents that we are reporting,
08:31what we see is the contractual relation of the company,
08:36where it is being delivered to the country, or where the OFWs are working.
08:41It is possible to file a complaint against the staff
08:44and violate the Tariff and Customs Code for those who are leaving or abandoning the return boxes.
08:50The BOC, DMW and other government agencies are also studying
08:55the steps that can be taken to avoid abandoning the return boxes.
09:00We will issue a new regulation here.
09:03We're treating this already, this kind of business,
09:08because it is being used by our OFWs.
09:12From 10am to 3pm Monday to Friday,
09:14return boxes can be claimed here in the warehouse in Santa Ana, Manila.
09:19According to the Bureau of Customs,
09:20they have not yet set a deadline on how long the return boxes can be claimed.
09:26According to the BOC,
09:27it is not true that they will sell or auction the return boxes that will not be obtained.
09:33If the owner of the return boxes has refused,
09:36they will only donate it to other government agencies
09:39so that it can be used for the needs of those in need.
09:43For GMA Integrated News, I am Darlene Kaye, your witness.
09:49The Philippines has issued a challenge to ships
09:52that pass through the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines, according to the AFP.
09:57The AFP also monitored the Chinese state media
10:00that a Chinese aircraft carrier passed 200 nautical miles from Luzon.
10:06Witness, Chino Gaston.
10:09The West Philippine Sea and China Coast Guard 3302 passed through several times.
10:14This includes the Chinese ships that carried water cannons
10:17in the humanitarian and support mission in Panatangshol last December.
10:22This ship passed 40 nautical miles west of Palawan,
10:25according to maritime security expert Trey Powell.
10:28It entered the 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines.
10:32According to the AFP,
10:33the Philippines issued 50,000 challenges to ships that pass through our EEZ this year.
10:42There are many international maritime highways that we call,
10:49that ships pass through, not just maritime and commercial ships, but even warships.
11:00The AFP also monitored the Chinese aircraft carrier
11:04that according to the Chinese state media,
11:06the Global Times, passed 200 nautical miles from Luzon.
11:10However, according to the AFP,
11:12the number of Chinese vessels in the West Philippine Sea
11:15decreased from June 25 to July 1 compared to last week.
11:19We don't want to speculate on the reduction.
11:23Suffice it to say, we have monitored a reduction on a week-to-week basis of our monitoring.
11:30For whatever reason, this will be subject to further assessments.
11:33We will not be deterred.
11:35Secondly, we will continue resupplying and rotating our troops.
11:40Thirdly, this is the mandate of the armed forces.
11:43Guided by higher pronouncements from the government and the Department of National Defense,
11:49Western Command is doing the appropriate planning.
11:52The AFP also denied what the Global Times said in a statement
11:56that the construction materials of the PCG in Skoda Shul are being brought.
12:00According to the Chinese state media,
12:02this is an indication that the Philippines plans to build a maritime base
12:06to support the BNP Sierra Madre in Ayungin Shul.
12:10Knowing the background of the Global Times, be careful.
12:13So just seeking your reaction.
12:16It's the narrative.
12:18The Philippine Navy, the Philippine Coast Guard, BIFAR, and all other government instrumentalities
12:24have to ensure that our territory is intact, our sovereignty and sovereign rights are protected.
12:31This will mean increased presence.
12:33This will mean increased maritime and air patrols.
12:36This will mean stationing ships longer than necessary.
12:40The AFP also denied the rumours that there might be a war if the Philippines
12:45forces the resupply missions in Ayungin.
12:47The AFP will continue resupplying in Ayungin despite what happened
12:52where a soldier was cut in half.
12:55There will be no war.
12:59Because we are using all the instruments of national power.
13:04For now, we can avoid war.
13:07We don't want war.
13:09For GMA Integrated News, I'm Chino Gaston, Saksi.
13:15The Philippine National Police supported the statement of the Duenas Police
13:19that there is no drug use in the Vivas Operation in Duenas, Iloilo.
13:23But according to PNP Spokesperson Police Colonel Gene Fajardo,
13:26they will still investigate the incident and will take action if there is a mistake.
13:31Police Captain Jesus Batilante said that the operation was legitimate
13:35and the viral part of the video was cut.
13:38It was only an accident that the police dropped the item obtained from the suspect.
13:44Three Chinese nationals arrested in the Vivas Operation in Angeles City
13:48will receive 500 grams of shabu, which is worth 3.4 million pesos,
13:53from the suspects.
13:54Aside from illegal drugs, they also obtained various types of mobile phones,
13:58two cars, and the marked money used by the poster buyer.
14:02The suspects will face charges of violation of Republic Act 9165
14:06or Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
14:11Proposed National Budget for 2025 that will be submitted to Congress
14:15has already been approved by President Marcos.
14:18According to the Department of Budget and Management,
14:20the proposed budget is worth 6.352 trillion pesos.
14:23It will receive the largest allocation of education, public works, health,
14:28interior and local government, and national defense.
14:31For GMA Integrated News, I'm Jonathan Andan.
14:34Good luck!
14:37China and the Philippines are working together to ease tensions in the West Philippine Sea.
14:42This is part of the bilateral consultation mechanism or BCM of the two countries.
14:49Pope Francis also calls for peace according to the highest diplomatic official of the Vatican
14:55who is now here in the Philippines.
14:58Witness, J.P. Soriano.
15:07Until the issue of tensions between the Philippines and China in the West Philippine Sea,
15:12Guys, stop! He's an arbitrator!
15:14the Vatican remains for peace, but it has been given a purpose.
15:20For the first time, the issue has been discussed by the highest diplomatic official,
15:26Archbishop Paul R. Gallagher, who is now in the Philippines.
15:30Although Pope Francis has asked for a peaceful discussion on any issue,
15:35the countries should follow his instructions.
15:38We would encourage parties in conflict to abide by international law
15:44and to pursue that as a way of resolving difficulties and problems
15:50with the best interests of all involved.
15:53The 2016 arbitral ruling that will destroy China's claim to almost the entire South China Sea,
16:04as well as the West Philippine Sea, is not directly addressed.
16:08Pope Francis and President Bongbong Marcos and Foreign Affairs Secretary Enrique Manalo
16:14were invited to the bilateral consultation mechanism of the Philippines and China
16:19where the incidents in the West Philippine Sea were directly discussed.
16:24According to the DFA, the Philippines gave the Chinese Vice Foreign Minister of China
16:30that the Philippines will not stop protecting its interests and sovereignty in the West Philippine Sea.
16:37Following the incidents in the West Philippine Sea,
16:40both sides agreed that trust and a helpful condition for a productive dialogue should be restored.
16:48Along with the talks, the two countries promised to ease tensions and continue the talks.
16:59The possible forum on Marine Scientific and Technological Cooperation and the expansion of the 10th BCM in China was also discussed.
17:08We noted our shared perspective that amidst the various international challenges and conflicts,
17:14the international community must be united in preserving a world
17:19where differences are resolved peacefully and on the basis of international law.
17:24Since almost 80% of Filipinos are Catholic,
17:28the Archbishop asked if this reached the message in the Philippines,
17:33in accordance with the divorce bill that was passed in the House of Representatives.
17:39For now, the Vatican and the Philippines are the only countries without divorce in the world,
17:44even though the Vatican's position has not changed.
18:01But the Vatican has a message to the Filipino Catholics,
18:05but the politicians are on the other side.
18:24And because the Pope has already approved the amendment in accordance with the absolute divorce bill in the Philippines,
18:29Archbishop Gallagher said that he will hold a plenary meeting of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines in the next few days.
18:39For GMA Integrated News, J.P. Soriano, your Saksi.
18:45It is possible that the rains experienced earlier will happen again in some parts of the country.
18:49According to the data of Metro Weather, there is a high chance of rain tomorrow afternoon in the Northern and Central Zone,
18:55Calabar Zone, Nimaropa and Bicol Region.
18:58Also in the Western and Central Visayas and almost the whole of Milanao.
19:03There will be heavy rains that may flood or cause landslides.
19:07It may continue to rain in some places until the evening, so be extra careful.
19:12Just like earlier, there is a chance of thunderstorms in Metro Manila.
19:16Outgoing Secretary Sara Duterte is about to start a new era of Deaf-Ed, Senator Sunny Angara.
19:23She should pay attention to what Marizo Mali wrote in Barangay Saksi Online.
19:33From the Senate to the Department of Education, Senator Juan Eduardo Mali,
19:40From the Senate to the Department of Education, Senator Juan Eduardo Sunny Angara,
19:47who was chosen to replace the former Deaf-Ed Secretary, Vice President Sara Duterte.
19:52Under the orders of President Bombo Marcos, the international standing of the Philippines
19:58in the Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA,
20:01as well as improving the teaching of history to students.
20:06The focus is not on memorization, but on understanding what really happened,
20:14why it happened, and making history interesting for our young people.
20:19Because Senator Angara will be the new Secretary of Deaf-Ed this month,
20:24it is time for her to open classes again.
20:26This is one of the first priorities she will give at the beginning of her term.
20:32In a GMA Integrated News interview, Angara said that she is already coordinating
20:37with the field of the outgoing Education Secretary Duterte for a proper turnover in the government.
20:42Angara will continue the initial review of the visa for the streamlining of the curriculum.
20:47The Deaf-Ed is also reviewing the K-12 Program, or Enhanced Basic Education Act,
20:53where Angara is one of the beneficiaries.
20:55We will continue whatever review was started.
20:59At the end of the day, the next step will be the Congress.
21:03As the highest policy setting body, we will have to follow whatever the law dictates.
21:10Vice President Sara faced a lot of controversies because she asked for confidential funds for the Deaf-Ed.
21:16I think the Vice President hasn't asked for confidential funds for the last two years.
21:21So I don't think it will be necessary.
21:23In a statement by the Deaf-Ed to welcome the next speaker,
21:26they said that they are ready to assist their leader in improving the quality of basic education in the country.
21:33The two groups of teachers were asked what they think should be the priority of the speaker, including for the teachers.
21:40The reduction of administrative work and the payment of overtime pay.
21:46These are very good policies, but this hasn't been implemented yet.
21:51I hope there will be an opportunity for the stakeholders to be a part of the program, especially our teachers.
22:01In our online questions, a lot of people answered that they hope the teachers' salaries will be increased.
22:07Aside from that, one said that the school buildings and training for the teachers should be improved.
22:12Of course, we support any pending measures.
22:16We supported the increase in the teaching allowance.
22:20We are one of the authors of that.
22:23So anything that will help improve the compensation and the benefits of our teachers, we are 100% supportive.
22:30A netizen said that the students' creative thinking and their ability in mathematics should be prioritized.
22:38Two asked for the increase of scholarships and other opportunities for the students to continue their studies.
22:45And one asked for the teachers to stop vlogging during class.
22:50As for the request of private schools to increase their enrollment.
22:54There is a cost to that.
22:56However, the department can help our schools, whether public or private, because that is our mandate under the legal system.
23:06We're constitutionally mandated to support the schools irrespective of whether they're public or private.
23:14For GMA Integrated News, I'm Maris Umali. Saksi!
23:18Saksi!
23:26BTS superstar Jin will be participating in the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics.
23:32And what is the song cover of Gillian Ward that was praised?
23:37Our Saksihan!
23:42Actually, that's what he wants to happen because his attitude is so bad.
23:45But wait, let's take a break with Doc Annalyn from her long-awaited dream.
23:50Because...
24:01The scene on the set will be heavy.
24:03Star of the New Gen, Gillian Ward still managed to flex her singing voice inside a dressing room.
24:11It's just a practice, but the fans are already cheering for the actress because of her voice.
24:18At the same time, the film Kumantong was released on the premiere night.
24:21The couple, Sian Lim and Iris Lee, are still roaming on the red carpet as if they're holding hands.
24:28Sian himself directed the film and he's counting on the support of the viewers.
24:35Jin's event, BTS, has a history in the making.
24:39According to some Korean reports, Jin is expected to hold the torch of South Korea in the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics.
24:49The army is already very excited with the news.
24:52For GMA Integrated News, Nelson Canlas is your Saksi.
25:03The games in England are explosive.
25:07The egg throwing and breaking the egg on the head.
25:19It's called Egg Russian Roulette.
25:21Two contestants will break six eggs on their heads.
25:25The first to get an empty egg will lose.
25:29The main event is the egg throwing where it should not be broken.
25:33Three-time world champions won this year.
25:36The throwing and breaking of the egg reached more than 50 meters when it was not broken.
25:50Maya Massage Day for a fur baby in Antipolo.
25:53In Bukidno, the reaction of the dogs caught in the act is pleasant.
25:57Let's watch.
25:59The dogs were caught but were not imprisoned in Bukidno.
26:03They continued to chase while bringing their fur mom closer.
26:10This is like playing hide-and-seek.
26:18Where are you?
26:19I'm here.
26:21Where are you?
26:22I'm here.
26:25And because it's Bukidno, they got closer and started to fight.
26:29According to the fur mom, Sheena, the dogs are usually inside the house.
26:34But because it's cold, they open the gate to play outside.
26:39That's why whenever Sheena comes home from work,
26:42her dogs greet her even though there's no greeting.
26:46They deserve a round of applause.
26:51It's massage day for one-month-old Chihuahua, Penny.
26:56She cried and couldn't sleep because of Chan's illness, according to the fur mom, Hannah.
27:03But no worries, because there's an effective technique.
27:06She's good at massage oil.
27:14The veterinarian recommended this.
27:16According to Hannah, that's why they also use this for their fur babies.
27:20For GMA Integrated News, Bernadette Reyes is your witness.
27:27It's relaxing.
27:29Yes, I like it too.
27:31There's massage oil there.
