00:00A driver was injured after he hit a concrete barrier on the EDSA busway.
00:07The driver had to break the window of the vehicle to get out.
00:11Watch Oscar Oida.
00:13He hit a concrete barrier on the EDSA busway near White Plains in Quezon City.
00:22That SUV passed by at 8 in the morning earlier.
00:25And based on the CCTV footage of the MMDA,
00:28we can see that the vehicle's running was a bit slow.
00:32The driver did not get out of the vehicle even though he was close to the authorities.
00:38But when they looked inside the SUV, they noticed that the driver was not moving.
00:45So they had to break the window of the vehicle.
00:49Our action should be quick because a minute or a second really counts.
00:53So when they saw that the driver was not moving,
00:56they were forced to do the action of breaking the glass of the vehicle.
01:00Apparently, this driver had a severe impact.
01:03And there is a complaint that his neck is a bit painful.
01:07The victim was taken to the hospital, but only one foreign national was informed.
01:12Based on the reports that we have gathered,
01:15he was confused and made a mistake when he entered the EDSA busway.
01:21Apparently, when he entered White Plains, northbound towards Antolan,
01:26he was a bit confused and was surprised that there was a barrier.
01:30So he was able to park his vehicle.
01:32That's the reason why we ramped our barriers.
01:38Because of the incident, the traffic in the area slowed down.
01:42Until the victim got out of the SUV, he left early in the morning.
01:47The driver is facing a complaint that he was not allowed to talk about the incident.
01:52For GMA Integrated News, I am Oscar Oid, your witness.
01:58The brother of Alice Guo, Wesley Guo, has confessed.
02:02According to the lawyer of the dismissed mayor of Bamban,
02:05in the hearing of the Senate earlier.
02:07The witness is Sandra Aguinaldo.
02:12While Alice Guo was holding the authorities in Indonesia,
02:16her brother, Sheila Guo, was forced by the Senate
02:19on how they were able to get out by the dismissed mayor of the Philippines.
02:23Sheila insisted that they went to the sea
02:26about Sabang, Malaysia before going to Indonesia.
02:29Where did you go?
02:31I can't believe that you don't remember the basic details.
02:35What I know is that we went to...
02:41We went through the wrong tollgate and went to Skyway.
02:45Where did you go?
02:47To the wrong tollgate.
02:49Wrong tollgate?
02:50We went to Skyway.
02:53And then?
02:54It was straight ahead. I don't know where it was.
02:57So you went south.
02:58I don't know.
02:59We already know that.
03:00It's hard to believe that you three, Alice,
03:04spent billions of your money,
03:07looking for the entire country of the Philippines,
03:10to expose yourself to such a dangerous trip to the sea.
03:15Because Sheila was accused of money laundering,
03:18a senator has a reminder.
03:21We just want to remind you that the 87 counts
03:25is just one of your cases.
03:27There are so many more to come.
03:31We don't believe in the stories you're selling to us.
03:35We won't buy what you're saying.
03:40The Anti-Money Laundering Council says
03:42most of the transactions in Alice's accounts
03:45are hundreds of millions of pesos in cash
03:47that doesn't match her earnings.
03:49This is the bigger crime.
03:51Putting up a building that we don't know how the money came in.
03:55That's my point.
03:57And I'll show that the same phenomena in Bora.
04:03That's my point.
04:05We're going to go beyond money laundering that we don't know about.
04:09Senators are also accusing the law enforcement agencies
04:13about how Alice got caught
04:16and if it's possible that the group used a private plane.
04:19According to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines,
04:22the names of Alice and her accomplices
04:24were not on the manifesto of private planes.
04:27The PNP, Bureau of Immigration, and Bureau of Customs
04:31and the Bureau of Quarantine
04:33are all passengers of the private plane that landed on the manifesto.
04:37The Emon Pulo Beach Resort in Zambales
04:39was also found in front of the Senate.
04:42Alice was seen there this July.
04:45She was our front desk in Emon Pulo.
04:49So maybe she was the star that went to Emon Pulo.
04:53But last year,
04:55they visited Alice's group
04:57even though she had nothing to do there.
05:00They went swimming,
05:02and their helicopter landed there.
05:05I think there were 2 or 3 helicopters that came back.
05:09I think there were 20 or more.
05:11The search warrant of Paok,
05:13who arrived at the resort this August,
05:16was also accused of being caught by the resort.
05:18It was also accused of being caught by Alice Saiteng.
05:21Paok explained that they have a mission order from the Bureau of Immigration.
05:25During the last public hearing of the subcommittee,
05:29we already recounted, so to speak, our information.
05:36We do apologize for the inconvenience that they have caused.
05:39But I hope Your Honor, we cannot apologize
05:42that we have to perform legitimate law enforcement functions.
05:46Cassandra Leong, who is confined in the hospital due to low blood sugar,
05:51was also not present at the hearing of the camera yesterday.
05:56Mayor Lizeldo Calugay of Sual, Pangasinan was also not present
05:59due to dengue immune.
06:01Sheila was also asked about the business that was named after her in Sual, Pangasinan.
06:06But she said that it is possible that she just used her name.
06:09In a media interview,
06:11Attorney Stephen David said that
06:13Wesley Guo wanted to give up,
06:15but now Alice was caught.
06:18She also wanted to give up.
06:19I cannot tell you the details.
06:23Of course, the point of a person is that you are discouraged, right?
06:27Because you have everyone with you, right?
06:30For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo is your witness.
06:38After the fast pace of buying from Enero
06:43and the 4.4% inflation of July,
06:47the buying price of 3.3% has already slowed this August.
06:52The slow pace of buying food such as rice
06:56and the drop in the price of vegetables and fish
06:59also helped the drop in the price of oil and ship massages.
07:05However, according to the Philippine Statistics Authority,
07:08it is expected that the price of agricultural products
07:12will be affected in the next few years.
07:15President Bongbong Marcos was pleased
07:17with the drop in inflation
07:19that was a result of the concrete actions of his administration.
07:23Philippine and Chinese officials
07:25agreed to continue the talks
07:27after the next aggressive and dangerous actions
07:31of the China Coast Guard in the West Philippine Sea.
07:34According to DFA Secretary Enrique Manalo,
07:37China will host the next round of the Bicameral Consultations Mechanism.
07:42It will be held in Beijing this month.
07:45Cesar Chavez was appointed
07:47as the new Secretary of the Presidential Communications Office.
07:50Before his appointment,
07:52Chavez served as the Presidential Assistant
07:55for Strategic Communications
07:57under the Office of the President.
07:59Chavez also served as the Undersecretary
08:02of the Department of Transportation.
08:04Chavez replaced Cheloy Garafil
08:06who was appointed as the Head of the Manila Economic and Cultural Office,
08:10which is based in Taiwan.
08:12For GMA Integrated News,
08:14Bernadette Reyes is your eyewitness.
08:18The number of people using rooftop solar energy in the country
08:22is increasing according to the Department of Energy.
08:24The target of the country is to increase the use of renewable energy
08:28up to 50% by the year 2040.
08:31I'm your eyewitness, Vonna Kino.
08:34In front of the Renewable Energy Stakeholders and Investors
08:37at the Clean Energy Philippines Conference and Expo,
08:40the Department of Energy shared the country's plan
08:43for 35% share of renewable energy in power generation by 2030.
08:49To achieve this, the government will give incentives
08:52and 100% foreign ownership of renewable energy projects will be allowed.
08:57Currently, there are actually about
09:00Currently, there are actually about
09:02174 renewable energy projects in operation
09:09and have around 5,000 megawatt installed capacity.
09:17So this is actually a testament that
09:21of all the projects that are being approved and registered with BOI,
09:26there is a more than 95% implementation success rate
09:31in terms of investments in renewable energy.
09:34The government is also encouraging voluntary renewable energy programs
09:38like net metering, green energy option, and expanded rooftop solar program.
09:43Net metering usually installs solar panels on the roof.
09:50If the owner of the house is not using it,
09:54they can sell it to the distribution utility.
09:58We already have a regulatory framework and policies.
10:02You save around 15 to 20% of the cost
10:06if you build your own generating facility.
10:11And if the generating facility is solar powered by battery,
10:17in the long run, it's more competitive
10:21because it's comparable to a diesel generator.
10:26Renewable energy companies were also given the opportunity
10:30to give the opportunity to stakeholders and the government
10:33to collaborate on projects.
