00:00Welcome back to a new episode of Pag-a-Tale, where we will be talking about the latest news in the Philippines.
00:07We will be talking about the latest news in the Philippines.
00:09We will be talking about the latest news in the Philippines.
00:11We will be talking about the latest news in the Philippines.
00:31We will be talking about the latest news in the Philippines.
00:36Colonel Fajardo, good morning to you. Welcome to the first news.
00:39Good morning sir. Good morning.
00:44Is the force of the Philippine National Police 100 percent ready for the Zona Salones? How many will we deploy?
00:52That's right sir. Your national police is ready.
00:56As of today, we will send off ceremony to the police that we will deploy.
01:03In total, we will deploy around 22,000 police, including those from different provinces of our government.
01:13Just to be clear Colonel Jean, when will the gun ban be implemented? Will it start here in Metro Manila?
01:22We just clarified sir Ivan that this is not a gun ban.
01:25This is just a suspension of the permit to carry firearms outside the residence.
01:30It will start and it will be implemented here on Saturday, 12-01 of July 20.
01:37It will last until 11-59 of July 22.
01:42It will be suspended for three days.
01:45It will only be here in the National Capital Region.
01:48Will this include all deadly weapons?
01:54That's included sir Ivan.
01:56We will make sure that our Zona Salones will be safe.
02:01Of course, we will also monitor the areas where we expect convergence of people.
02:10What are the expectations of those who will enter Metro Manila?
02:14Even the residents of Metro Manila, will we expect checkpoints and inspection of their belongings?
02:20Yes sir. Because of the Zona Salones, we will activate the so-called Manila Shield,
02:28where the provinces and regions near Metro Manila will establish checkpoints and border control
02:35to make sure that we can monitor the entry and exit of Metro Manila.
02:41In addition to Metro Manila, your PNP will help in managing and controlling the flow of traffic,
02:49especially in the area of Commonwealth and other roads leading to Batasan Complex.
02:55While the day of Zona Salones is approaching, how is our threat assessment Colonel Lapardo?
03:02As of now sir, we are not receiving any serious threat to disrupt our Zona Salones.
03:09We do not have confidence in our coordination with other law enforcement agencies
03:15to make sure that we can preempt and monitor our areas of security.
03:22Yes. As far as security is concerned, of course what we expect are the protests.
03:27Yesterday, a guard was hit on the head in the middle of a rally.
03:31What are the preparations that we are doing as far as the protests?
03:36As of now sir, we are anticipating that there will be protest actions.
03:41They have been doing this for years.
03:43But if they will not be given a permit, we have Freedom Parks and we are allowing them.
03:51But we are anticipating that this is part of our contingency plan.
03:55If there is a decision to march, especially in the area of Commonwealth,
04:00we are preparing security for that.
04:04Did you give a permit sir Lapardo?
04:08As of yesterday sir Ivan, we understand that there are two or three groups that applied for a permit.
04:15But we will ask for an update on the day if there are those who applied for a permit to be given.
04:22How far will they be given?
04:24As far as they can be given, our recommendation to LGUs,
04:30particularly in Quezon City, is that they will be given up to Tandang Soka.
04:34So we can ensure that the roads near Batangasan Complex will not have heavy traffic.
04:43Definitely, Batangasan Complex is off-limits to the protests.
04:47Even the pro-administration, is that so?
04:50That's right sir. There are also people who signify that they will protest against the pro-government.
04:59We will place them in Bandang Soa so that they will be far from each other to avoid tension.
05:08The length of IVP Road is closed to the traffic and MMDA will implement rerouting schemes
05:18so that the main roads to Batasan Complex will be open to the attendees of SONA.
05:28PNP Spokesperson Colonel Jean Fajardo, thank you for your time. Good morning.
05:32Let's update on the fire in Barangay Sangandaan, Quezon City.
05:36We have first news live from James Agustin. James.
05:44Susan, before 6 a.m. this morning, the Bureau of Fire Protection declared that the fire is under control
05:49due to the fire that broke out near the junk shop here in Barangay Sangandaan, Quezon City.
05:55Before 2 a.m. this morning, a fire broke out in a junk shop in Marcel Drive.
06:00It spread quickly to the adjacent junk shops.
06:03The Bureau of Fire Protection raised the first alarm.
06:05There were 11 firetrucks responding as well as fire volunteers.
06:09The fire engulfed the embarked vehicles, including three trucks and a motorcycle.
06:14More than five junk shops were affected.
06:16Some houses adjacent to the junk shops were also affected by the fire.
06:20A fire broke out in a house that is still being investigated by the authorities.
06:24Residents said that they woke up to the fact that the fire was already big.
06:27Some of them were unable to save their belongings, so they called for help.
06:33Our neighbors woke up to the fact that there was a fire.
06:36I saw that the fire was getting bigger.
06:38That's why we all went outside.
06:40I hope that they will help us because we were really burnt.
06:44Even one of our belongings. We really don't have anything to take.
06:48It's really hard.
06:53It's really hard. Even one of our belongings. We really don't have anything to take.
07:02Meanwhile, Susan, as you can see, that's the fourth junk shop that was affected by the fire.
07:07The first three junk shops that we saw earlier,
07:10no one can really help them and their roof has already fallen.
07:13The operation of the Bureau of Fire Protection continues.
07:16We are still investigating the details of the possible cause of the fire
07:20and the overall importance of the situation.
07:23The BFP is still here. They are still conducting the operation.
07:26That's all for the latest from Barangay Sangandaan in Quezon City.
07:29I am James Agustin for JEMAI Integrated News.
07:36Good morning to the latest from Panon and the two low-pressure areas inside the Philippine Air Responsibility.
07:42Good morning to the latest from the Weather Specialist, Ms. Ana Cloren Horda.
07:47Good morning, Ms. Ana.
07:49Good morning to you too, Sir Andrew.
07:51Ms. Ana, let's start with the low-pressure area in Calapan, Oriental Mindoro.
07:55Is it going to be strong and is it possible for it to be a typhoon?
07:58Yes. Last time we saw it, we monitored the LPA
08:02in the 135 kilometers north-south of Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro.
08:08In our estimation, there is a low chance that it will be a typhoon.
08:12We expect that within 24 hours, it will be possible for it to leave our area of responsibility.
08:18What areas will be affected due to the low-pressure area?
08:22The Mindoro provinces will be affected by the LPA and also the area of Palawan.
08:30So be careful to our countrymen there because there is a strong chance that it will be a typhoon.
08:35Ms. Ana, this is our second low-pressure area in Eastern Visayas.
08:40What areas will be affected and is it possible for it to be a typhoon?
08:44Yes. The second LPA that we are monitoring is in the 880 kilometers east of Eastern Visayas.
08:52At the moment, because it is in the ocean,
08:55we are not ruling out the possibility that it will be a typhoon within the next 24 to 48 hours.
09:01That is why we will continue to monitor the updates that are coming out.
09:05And in terms of rain,
09:07at the moment, because it is still in the ocean,
09:11it does not have a direct effect on any part of our country.
09:15But once it gets closer to the Eastern Visayas area,
09:19it is possible that the Eastern section of Visayas-Mindanao will be affected by the rain.
09:24And it depends on where this truck will be.
09:26But most likely, the Eastern section of our country,
09:29it is impossible for the LPA to experience the rain.
09:34Ms. Ana, last question.
09:35Is there a chance that these two low-pressure areas will merge and form a typhoon?
09:41From what we can see,
09:43we don't have a scenario where they will merge and form a typhoon
09:48because the LPA in Micalapan is far away from our country
09:52and the chance of it becoming a typhoon is low.
09:55Eventually, it will become a cloud cluster and possibly the LPA will disappear.
09:59And we will only monitor the LPA in the Eastern Visayas.
10:06Good morning and thank you very much.
10:08This is Weather Specialist Ana Clorin Horda.
10:14The Social Security System or SSS is worried about the spreading of fake text alerts.
10:20According to the SSS,
10:22it promises to monitor the incentives of those behind the fake text alerts
10:25as long as they click on the link they sent.
10:28The agency is reminding them not to click and not to give any personal information.
10:34The National Telecommunications Commission or NTC already knows about the incident.
10:39Kapuso, if you are a victim of a scam,
10:42report this to the official email or landline number of the Special Investigation Department.
10:48Pag-asa has an abyss regarding the spreading of online posts
10:53that it will be right this July that the typhoon will be far away.
10:57Pag-asa said that this is not true.
10:59There are no active tropical cyclones in the Philippine area of responsibility for now.
11:04The rain in some parts of the country is due to the low-pressure area.
11:08It is also advised to believe and share information from unconfirmed and reliable sources.
11:15Read the official social media accounts of DOST Pag-asa for the legitimate information and weather updates.
11:22OCTA Research released the results of their senatorial preferences survey for the election of 2025.

12:37and an error margin of plus-minus 3%.
12:40We are now monitoring some places in Western Visayas
12:43following the report of illegal activities
12:46by a group of Chinese nationals in Iloilo City.
12:49Live from Iloilo City,
12:51we have Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV.
12:54Kim?
12:59Susan, National Bureau of Investigation 6
13:03is in contact with the Bureau of Immigration
13:05and other agencies of the government
13:08on the monitoring of illegal activities
13:10by some Chinese nationals in Iloilo City.
13:18The National Bureau of Investigation admitted
13:21that they have received a report
13:23that there are groups of Chinese
13:25doing illegal activities in Iloilo City.
13:28Just recently, I received an intelligence report,
13:32but it does not involve FOGO.
13:35Allegedly, certain nationals involved in illegal activities.
13:41Allegedly, these are a group of Chinese nationals.
13:44The report stated by the NBI Region 6 is still being investigated.
13:49According to the NBI,
13:50they are not only monitoring Iloilo City,
13:54but also other places in Western Visayas,
13:56such as Bacolod City and Malaysia,
13:59where Boracay Island is located.
14:01The NBI Region 6 approved the resolution
14:04of the Iloilo City Council
14:06banning the Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator,
14:09or POGO, in Lungsod.
14:11Some residents of Iloilo City
14:13also support the City Council's move.
14:16They believe that there is nothing good
14:18that POGO can do.
14:20In order to protect us and you,
14:24and to monitor the illegal activities of the police.
14:30They are banning us.
14:32They are not letting us go.
14:36I am very angry.
14:43Susan was able to attend the Executive Session
14:46of the Iloilo City Council
14:48to discuss the additional steps
14:51to monitor the illegal activities
14:53of foreign nationals in Lungsod.
14:56Susan?

14:58Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV.
15:03The LGUs were asked to assist
15:05the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission,
15:07or PAOCC,
15:09to speed up the opening
15:11of illegal POGO operations in the country.
15:14According to the camera,
15:15the PAOCC said that
15:17there are more than 400 illegal POGO operations in the country
15:20that need to be investigated.
15:22Most of them are in Metro Manila.
15:25The PAOCC submitted to the Camera Committee
15:28the list of illegal POGO operations in the country.
15:30According to the PAOCC,
15:32each POGO operation is usually related to fraud,
15:36and other crimes such as human trafficking,
15:38prostitution, kidnapping, and abuse.
15:41The Department of Interior and Local Government
15:44issued a Circular Memorandum regarding this.
15:49I order the mayors and the police
15:52to separate all the business establishments
15:56that they are in charge of.
15:58Who knows,
15:59there might be other criminal activities related to this.
16:03It could be drugs and other things.
16:05That is what we will do in the whole Philippines.
16:09The Department of Agriculture
16:11has set a one-year trial period
16:12for the Php 29 Rice Program.
16:15That is to have enough time
16:17to gather information
16:18to form a strategy
16:20to keep the price of rice low
16:23according to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chulaurel, Jr.
16:26Study from buying and planting seeds,
