00:00Good morning. Here are the first news of Jemai Integrated News.
00:20Cassandra Leong admitted in her face-to-face interview with the camera
00:24her connection to Whirlwind Corporation
00:27and Lucky South 99 Pogo in Porac, Pampanga.
00:32Leong said that she hired the president and finance officer of Lucky South 99, Warren Wu.
00:39He is a member of Whirlwind Corporation that sells houses in Lucky South 99 for his legal Pogo.
00:48As for the corporate secretary of Lucky South 99, Ronilin Baterna,
00:52Leong is her boss and she orders him to issue and sign checks.
00:57Based on the information of another employee of the company, Stephanie Mascareñas,
01:03Warren Wu's personal translator, Ong, she is always with him in meetings.
01:10Ong confirmed what Sheila Guo said in the Senate that she's in love with Wesley Guo,
01:16the brother of dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo.
01:20But they're not close.
01:22Ong said that he left the Philippines because of Wesley.
01:27Ong also said that they met in Malaysia, but Ong was in another country first,
01:32and then he flew to Singapore from the Philippines.
01:35From Singapore, he went to another country, but he refused to meet with the public
01:40and he was just helped by the members of the government.
01:44Before this, Ong refused to speak in public for several times.
01:49Because of this, the Quad Committee approved the camera
01:53to detain Ong in the Women's Correctional in Mandaluyong,
01:57which was later replaced by Ong's initial answer to the questions.
02:04Do you want to avail an executive session?
02:07If you let it go like this, answer it like that, you will be condemned here.
02:12This can be used against you.
02:15Can I think about it?
02:17Okay. But again, we will be warning you.
02:20We will be warning you.
02:44So it's not true that you were born here?
02:47No. Not me.
02:50You came here in 2001 from China.
02:53So you were also born in China?
02:55Yes.
02:57After confessing to the Senate,
02:59the brother of Ms. Bamban Mayor Alice Guo, Sheila Guo,
03:03was convicted by the Department of Justice
03:06for using a false Philippine passport.
03:09The Philippine passport that she got from her father.
03:13My father gave it to me.
03:15He said, that's your passport.
03:18If you go on a trip, that's what you will use.
03:28You admit that your birth certificate is fake?
03:31I don't know because my father gave it to me.
03:34When Sheila was in Indonesia for a week,
03:37she got a Chinese passport named Jiangmir.
03:41She was accompanied by Cassandra Leong,
03:44who was convicted of obstruction of justice
03:46for harboring, concealing,
03:48and facilitating the escape of a criminal offender.
03:51On the part of the prosecutors,
03:53they were able to find sufficient evidence.
03:55Because of our new rules,
03:57the reasonable certainty of conviction,
04:00all elements of the crime must have supporting evidence.
04:04Both of them will face a case of disobedience to summons
04:07for not facing the hearings of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
04:12The investigation of the Department of Justice continues
04:15on how Alice Guo got out
04:17and who helped her siblings.
04:21Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Lumulla
04:24was not convinced by Guo's stories in the Senate.
04:28From what he said, he did not know where he went
04:31and who helped them.
04:32Especially the ride of Sheila, Alice, and Wesley on a boat
04:37until they arrived in Malaysia.
04:40I don't know a lot of things about him.
04:42I can't believe that he doesn't know.
04:45Because he has been in the Philippines for a long time.
04:47He can read the road signs and where they are.
04:51He is used to a good lifestyle.
04:53He can't even go to a fishing boat.
04:56Three days in a fishing boat, where will he sleep?
04:59In the hearing, Senator Risa Ontiveros also said
05:02that she received information
05:04that her siblings are in great danger
05:08and that they can only leave the country.
05:11It is estimated that 200 million pesos were spent by the Guo family
05:16to help Alice escape.
05:19I really don't know how this happened.
05:22But maybe, in order to move that fast
05:25and without being noticed,
05:29these people really did it.
05:35The DOJ is already investigating this.
05:38According to Sheila Guo's lawyer,
05:41they will answer the allegations
05:43when they are called here.
05:45This is the first news in five sentences
05:49for GMA Integrated News.
05:51Two more active cases of MPACs,
05:53or monkey PACs in the country,
05:55according to the Department of Health.
05:57MPACs Case No. 13
05:59is a 26-year-old woman from Metro Manila.
06:03Her symptoms are rashes and fever.
06:06She was first noticed on August 20.
06:08She is in home quarantine now.
06:10In their house, MPACs Case No. 14 is recovering.
06:13A 12-year-old man from Calabarzon
06:17whose symptoms started on August 10.
06:19According to the DOH,
06:21the two have no travel history.
06:23MPACs Case No. 14
06:25has been registered in the country
06:27since July 2022.
06:29According to the DOH,
06:31these people are claimed to be variant 2
06:33and mild version of the virus.
06:35In the markets,
06:37the price of white onions
06:39in Marquina Market has almost doubled.
06:41How much?
06:43Let's find out in the first live news of Bam Alegre.
06:45Bam.
06:50Good morning.
06:51It's hard to cut white onions.
06:53But according to some people we talked to,
06:56even this price is hard to cut.
07:03Nora's business is booming in Reno
07:06so she can't avoid buying white onions
07:08here in Mariquina Public Market.
07:10However, her budget is affected
07:12because the price is expensive now.
07:14Before, it was 60 to 80 pesos
07:16per kilo.
07:18Now, it's 120 pesos.
07:19It's expensive.
07:21It's not like before,
07:23when it was cheap.
07:25According to the Department of Agriculture,
07:27the supply of white onions is a problem
07:29so the price is rising.
07:31According to the agency,
07:33the country's supply of 3,296.50 metric tons
07:36will last until this August.
07:3816,000 metric tons of white onions
07:41will be exported to the Philippines
07:43so the country won't run out of it.
07:45Now, it's almost time for the vermons.
07:46But there's a limit to importing
07:48until December.
07:50Because white onions will be imported
07:52again in January.
07:54While it's not there yet,
07:56the store owner, Eden Herrero,
07:58is importing supplies.
08:00It's expensive.
08:02Some are delivered to Nueva Ecija
08:04while others are imported.
08:10According to the Department of Agriculture,
08:12the supply of red onions
08:14will last until December.
08:16This is the first news from Marikina,
08:18Bamalagren, for GMA Integrated News.
08:21There was a tension
08:23in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound
08:25in Davao City
08:27after the police entered
08:29a blue box early this morning.
08:38The police did not show
08:40the contents of the box
08:42to the members of KOJC.
08:44It was not passed through an X-ray scanner
08:46to the members of KOJC.
08:48The PNP did not provide
08:50any details about it.
08:52The Davao City Regional Trial Court
08:54clarified that they did not investigate
08:56the process of serving an arrest warrant
08:58against the Kingdom of Jesus Christ founder,
09:00Pastor Apollo Quibuloy.
09:02Next, the court issued
09:04a temporary protection order
09:06regarding the petition of KOJC.
09:08In the supplemental and clarification order
09:10issued by Davao City RTC,
09:12they also issued
09:13an underlying urgency
09:15to protect the rights
09:17and security of the petitioners.
09:19But this does not mean
09:21that they lost their visa,
09:23the arrest warrant.
09:25Again, the KOJC's camp
09:27went to court
09:29to condemn
09:31DILG Secretary Benher Abalos,
09:33PNP Chief Romel Marbil,
09:35and several other officials
09:37because of the choice of the police in the compound.
09:39Abalos' gate will continue
09:41the search of the police
09:43and they will also receive
09:45a motion for clarification
09:47on whether the initial order
09:49issued by Davao RTC is valid.
09:52The essence of it is
09:54that I am condemning them.
09:56Maybe they will not be granted
09:58immediately
10:00but at least
10:02we have grounds
10:04and if we will be able
10:06to present evidences later on,
10:08they might be granted.
10:10This is not a TRO.
10:11We will not be arrested.
10:13It is not in his order
10:15that we will stop the operation
10:17of arresting Kibuloy.
10:19Meaning, the PNP will continue
10:21to arrest and search for Fasor Kibuloy.
10:23That is important.
10:25Following the TPO,
10:27several KOJC members
10:29entered the compound
10:31but the police still kept it closed.
10:33No KOJC members
10:35entered the cathedral.
10:37Some members of the KOJC said
10:39that the PNP started again
10:41penetrating radars
10:43inside the cathedral.
10:45The PNP believed that Kibuloy
10:47is inside an underground bunker
10:49inside the compound.
10:51The Police Regional Office 11
10:53reported that the PNP gave
10:55the KOJC 2 hours
10:57to surrender Kibuloy
10:59before they burst
11:01the KOJC Cathedral.
11:03Another lie
11:05that the KOJC is spreading
11:07is that we will destroy
11:09their compound
11:11with water and electricity.
11:13Last night,
11:15the KOJC's light
11:17was beautiful.
11:25I'll be back.
11:27That was the message
11:29of Pinoy Pole Volter, EJ Obiena
11:31with the early end
11:33of his 2024 campaign.
11:35EJ said that there are
11:37three competitions
11:39before he returns to the Philippines
11:41because of a stress fracture
11:43in his spine.
11:45He needs to recover
11:47and rest.
11:49EJ promised
11:51that he will return
11:53and fulfill his promise
11:55that the Philippine flag
11:57will be raised
11:59on a global scale.
12:01The government has plans
12:03to make the roads safer
12:05for cyclists.
12:07What is the reaction
12:09of the cyclists
12:11to this?
12:13Maris, good morning.
12:15To our cyclists,
12:17the Department of Transportation
12:19has a plan
12:21to add more bike lanes.
12:23The agency is also
12:25suggesting to the camera
12:27the 2.6 billion pesos
12:29added budget
12:31that will be used
12:33in the plan.
12:35Let's find out
12:37what the opinion
12:39of our fellow bikers
12:41is.
13:12It's dangerous for us.
13:14The Department of Transportation
13:16has a plan to add
13:18the 2.6 billion pesos
13:20for the bike lane network
13:22and pedestrian walkways
13:24in the country.
13:26The Department of Budget
13:28and Management
13:30and the agency
13:32has only invested
13:3460 million pesos
13:36for the program
13:38under the 2025 NEP
13:39to add 260 kilometers
13:41of bike lanes in 2025
13:43and extend it to 2,400 kilometers
13:45by 2028.
13:47Some cyclists
13:49hope that the plan
13:51to add bike lanes
13:53will be implemented
13:55and the authorities
13:57will be strict.
13:59It's a struggle.
14:01The four wheels
14:03are surprising.
14:05It's scary and surprising.
14:07Later,
14:09I hope it will be implemented.
14:11It's a good thing
14:13if we have bike lanes.
14:15You can avoid accidents.
14:17Avoid accidents.
14:19Avoid traffic.
14:21We won't be affected.
14:27Currently,
14:29the government
14:31of the bike lanes
14:33in the region
14:35in Metro Manila
14:37can see and pass
14:39the congested roads
14:41in EDSA.
14:43Meanwhile,
14:45you can see behind me
14:47the typical scene
14:49of Marcos Highway
14:51because it's rush hour
14:53and there's a lot of traffic.
14:55The cars are bumper to bumper
14:57and the motorists
14:59have their own businesses.
