00:00Good morning. Here are the first news brought to you by GMA Integrated News.
00:18The Anti-Money Laundering Council submitted additional evidence for the complaint of money laundering against Dismissed Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo.
00:29Qualified Human Trafficking was complained by Cassandra Lee Ong and other officials of Lucky South 99 Pogo Hub in Purak, Pampanga.
00:37Among the witnesses of the complaint filed by the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission and Philippine National Police,
00:43the four Philippine staff of Pogo and 10 foreigners were rescued from there.
00:48Here are the first news in Salima, Reforand.
00:51Ten foreign victims of human trafficking by Lucky South 99 Pogo in Purak, Pampanga were brought before the Justice Department.
01:02All of them look fine and their faces are clear.
01:07They are far from their condition when they were first rescued from the Pogo raid in June.
01:14The four Philippine staff of Pogo are witnesses of the qualified human trafficking complaint filed by PAOK and PNP-CIDG
01:22against Cassandra Lee Ong, who was rescued by Lucky South 99,
01:27Ronaldin Baterna, the corporate secretary,
01:30former Technology and Livelihood Resource Center official Dennis Cunanan,
01:34and the two big bosses of Pogo, Aduan Renwu and Zhang Jie.
01:3950 Filipinos and foreign incorporators, officers, and managers of Lucky South 99 and the Whirlwind Corporation
01:47are the companies that bought land and facilities in Lucky South.
01:51Lucky South 99 is notorious within the Pogo community because they are the biggest buyers of people.
02:00They buy people from the casinos.
02:04One of the Chinese, who was owed P450,000,
02:10gambled for three nights and lost.
02:12When he lost, he couldn't pay, he was sent straight to Lucky South.
02:16The union of Lucky South 99 and the Whirlwind Corporation is not a business for the cabinet.
02:24It's a criminal enterprise.
02:26It's a criminal enterprise through and through.
02:28Nothing good was done.
02:30From the start, what he did was illegal.
02:35Wu, who is Chinese, and Zhang, who is Singaporean,
02:38were the ones who got help from Wu and Ong's brothers in Singapore and Indonesia.
02:44Alice Wu was not included in the complaint.
02:47But the authorities did not ignore the possibility that she might be included in another complaint of Lucky South 99.
02:56Meanwhile, 32 boxes of documents were added by the Anti-Money Laundering Council
03:02to the evidence in the money laundering cases against Wu.
03:06These were sent to the Justice Department.
03:09Aside from the 87 counts of money laundering,
03:11Wu is also facing complaints of qualified human trafficking and tax evasion here in the Department of Justice.
03:17This is different from the cases facing Tarlac RTC, Manila RTC, and Comele.
03:24The Tarlac RTC Branch 109, where the former mayor's graft cases are heard,
03:30was written by Senator Risa Ontiveros.
03:32She will definitely send Wu to the hearings of the Senate,
03:36as long as she will not attend the hearings of the court.
03:40This is the first news in five sentences for GMA Integrated News.
03:46The Commission on Elections dismissed Mayor Alice Wu until September 12
03:51to file a counter-affidavit in the complaint of material misrepresentation.
03:56This was confirmed by Wu's accusation in her Certificate of Candidacy
04:00when she ran for mayor in Bantarlac in 2022.
04:06On August 13, Comele filed a complaint with Wu
04:09and she was given her counter-affidavit several times by the deadline.
04:14Comele now said that the September 12 deadline is no longer extended.
04:19Pastora Polo Q. Buloy and four other accused remain in Camp Cramez
04:24under the orders of the Quezon City Regional Trial Court.
04:28They were transferred to Quezon City Jail.
04:31According to PNP Spokesperson, Police Colonel Gene Fajardo,
04:34the first order of the Pasig Regional Trial Court
04:37to remain in the PNP Custodial Center are the five accused.
04:41In Pasig RTC, the case of Qualified Human Trafficking was filed.
04:46In QCRTC, the case of Child and Sexual Abuse was held.
04:50According to PNP, the two courts' orders need to be unified.
04:55On Friday, September 13, the arraignment of the accused was held.
05:00According to the Police Regional Office 11,
05:03who visited the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound in Davao City to look for Kim Buloy,
05:08they are ready to investigate if the courts will call them.
05:11It is also possible for the KOJC to file a complaint.
05:15The KOJC has yet to file a complaint.
05:17In a resolution called by the Davao City Council
05:20to the Department of the Interior and Local Government,
05:22the police investigated the violations against the rights of KOJC members.
05:28GMA Integrated News is working hard to get the statement of DILG and PRO11
05:34regarding the resolution.
05:36We are still here at Naia Terminal 1.
05:39The official turnover of the new operator of Naia will be held on Saturday.
05:44This is the new Naia Infrastructure Corporation.
05:48The new operator will carry out the terminal reassignments.
05:53According to NNIC, General Manager Angelito Alvarez,
05:58the terminal will be decongested and the passenger experience will be better
06:03and the flights will be better.
06:05Alvarez said that the terminal reassignments will be held within two years
06:10after the Terminal 2 extension.
06:13Under the terminal reassignments,
06:16the Philippine Airlines will go to Terminal 1.
06:20Domestic flights will go to Terminal 2,
06:23while foreign flights to Cebu Pacific will go to Terminal 3.
06:28AirAsia flights will go to Terminal 4.
06:32NNIC also targets that within five years,
06:36the passenger capacity of Naia will increase from 35 million passengers
06:40to accommodate 62 million passengers.
06:45NNIC also hopes that new toilets, air conditioning units will be added
06:50and the internet connection will be faster.
06:54A lot of people are asking,
06:55will there be a higher fare for Naia?
06:58NNIC said that there will be no increase in passenger fees within a year.
07:04Let's find out the reaction of our fellow Filipinos
07:09regarding the Terminal reassignments.

07:32because there will still be rehabilitation.

07:53Because the queue is not that long.
07:55Oh, so that's your experience now?
07:57Yes, that's how it is now.
07:59When I came in, it was just new to me.
08:01That's your experience.
08:03Is it better to have more seats?
08:05Yes, it's better to have more seats.
08:07Because you've been standing for a long time, right?
08:09Okay, so that's our experience, fellow Filipinos.
08:13Meanwhile,
08:15this is Ma'am.
08:17Ma'am, is this your first time traveling?
08:21Yes, this is my first time.
08:23So, in your opinion,
08:25what changes should be made in our surroundings?
08:29Because it's more spacious here, Ma'am.
08:31What should be changed here?

08:47Yes.

09:11So, those are some of the experiences
09:13of our fellow Filipinos.
09:15We are now at Terminal 1.
09:17We are now at Terminal 1.
09:19This is the waiting area.
09:21A lot of people are waiting here.
09:23They are the ones who brought their family
09:25who left the country.
09:27But they are here in the waiting area.
09:29As you can see, this is a bit crowded.
09:31That's why we moved a little bit
09:33because we can read there.
09:35Some of our fellow Filipinos
09:37who brought their loved ones
09:39who are going to other countries
09:41for different reasons.
09:43So, they can see that there should be
09:45a good change
09:47in the way we walk

10:21Silver Star show
10:23of Guts World Tour next month.
10:25Olivia is trending at number one
10:27following the concert announcement.
10:29Some Filipino netizens
10:31are very mindful
10:33and very considerate
10:35about the ticket price.
10:37They said that it's the price of a countrywoman.
10:39The concert proceeds will go to
10:41the Foundation of Fund for Good.
10:45That's exciting!
10:47Meanwhile, get ready to move like Jagger

10:59the group's Asia 2025 tour.
11:01Their hit songs are Sugar,
11:03She Will Be Loved, Payphone,
11:05and many more.
11:07Maroon 5 also held a concert in the Philippines
11:09last year.
11:11Move like Jagger!
11:13Next year,
11:15the Philippines will still be the most at-risk
11:17or dangerous country in the world
11:19according to a study.
11:21According to the World Risk Report
11:23of the Institute for International Law of Peace
11:25and Armed Conflict in Denmark,
11:27the Philippines has a World Risk Index
11:29or WRI of 46.91.
11:31This was obtained
11:33through studies on exposure,
11:35vulnerability,
11:37susceptibility,
11:39and the lack of coping and adaptive capacities
11:41of 123 countries
11:43in disasters,
11:45chaos, pandemic,
11:47and war.
11:49Compared to 2022 and 2023,
11:51the Philippines' risk score also increased
11:53in 2024.
11:55According to the list,
11:57Indonesia and India are next in the Philippines this year,
11:59just like in 2023.
12:01The WRI of
12:03Monaco, Andorra,
12:05and San Marino.
12:09Some senators are not convinced
12:11that there is no Filipino help
12:13to get Alice Wu out of the Philippines.
12:15Yesterday, they asked
12:17the Philippine Coast Guard
12:19why Wu's car
12:21was not intercepted
12:23when they fled.
12:25Ian Cruz has the first news.
12:29You're so annoying!
12:31You're so annoying!
12:33Alice Wu still doesn't know
12:35how and who helped
12:37her get out of the country
12:39in mid-July.
12:41In her life,
12:43senators wrote the names
12:45of those who helped her.
12:47The senators did not publish it.
12:49But Senator Arisa Ontiveros said
12:51this person was mentioned
12:53in the first hearings.
12:55It's a Chinese name.
12:57I'm not sure. I might be wrong.
12:59How many names were written?
13:01Senator Jingo Estrada said,
13:03He is a Chinese national
13:05and allegedly,
13:07based on the reports
13:09that I have received,
13:11he fled the country
13:13and he is now in Taiwan.
13:15I heard that he is
13:17the boss of all the bosses
13:19of POGO.
13:21Alice Wu said
13:23she also heard people
13:25who helped her.
13:27I asked her,
13:29why didn't she speak up?
13:31Why did she ask you
13:33to flee the country?
13:35Why did she ask you to borrow money?
13:37My conclusion is,
13:39maybe
13:41Alice Wu was asked
13:43to flee the country
13:45to facilitate
13:47her escape.
13:51Senators believe that
13:53there is a Filipino involvement
13:55in Alice Wu's escape.
13:57The Coast Guard asked
13:59why the yacht
14:01that Alice Wu was in was not intercepted.
14:27before we can anticipate
14:29such a scenario and then cover it.
14:31The regulation
14:33was made in 2009
14:35and I'm taking
14:37my role now to revise it, Your Honor.
14:39The hearing will continue
14:41on September 17,
14:43when Alice Wu was allowed
14:45by the Tarlac Court.
14:47This is the first news.
14:49Ian Cruz for GMA
14:51Integrated News.
14:53The pork vendors
14:55are worried
14:57about the effect of African Swine Fever
14:59on their income.
15:01And live from Valenzuela,
15:03we have the first news,
15:05Bea Pinla.
15:09Ivan, the price of pork
15:11is already low.
15:13The price is still high.
15:15That's what some vendors
15:17in Valenzuela City are saying.
15:19But now that ASF is vaccinated,
15:21they believe that
15:23the pork vendors
15:25are the ones to blame.
15:27From the pork market
15:29to the market,
15:31the spread of African Swine Fever
15:33has a severe effect on the country.
15:35Valenzuela is one of the places
15:37in Metro Manila
15:39where ASF inspection sites
15:41were built to stop
15:43the spread of the disease.
15:45Some pork vendors
15:47in Carujatan Market are coming
15:49because their sales are still low.
15:51In the market,
15:53the price is really low.
15:55Of course, it has a big effect
15:57on us. It's called survival.
15:59As long as it's
16:01for daily expenses.
16:03They think it's painful.
16:05It's easy to buy.
16:07Even if the pork is cheap,
16:09a lot of people will buy it.
16:11But it's not painful when it comes to the market.
16:13They reduced the price
16:15of pork to 20 pesos.
16:17Now, the price of ribs
16:19is 275 pesos
16:21to 280 pesos
16:23per kilo.
16:25Pork is 350 pesos
16:27to 370 pesos.
16:29Porkchop, Kasim, and Pigue
16:31are 320 pesos
16:33per kilo.
16:35Pata and Mascara
16:37are 270 to 280 pesos.
16:39It's good news
16:41for those who started
16:43distributing vaccines against ASF.
16:45According to the Department of Agriculture,
16:47controlled ASF vaccination
16:49will be extended
16:51not only in Luzon,
16:53but also in Visayas and Mindanao.
16:55Pork vendors
16:57believe that
16:59they will have more confidence
17:01in the pork sold in the market
17:03because of the
17:05ASF vaccination in the country.
17:07But what is the effect
17:09of the rollout of ASF vaccine
17:11on the price of pork
17:13in the market?
17:15It depends on the vendors.
17:17There's a tendency to go up.
17:19It depends on the vendors.
17:21They control the price.
17:23If it goes up,
17:25we will also go up.
17:31Ivan, according to some
17:33vendors we talked to,
17:35there's a high possibility
17:37that the price of pork
17:39will go up again because of the ASF
17:41vaccination program.
17:43It's a good news
17:45for those who started
17:47distributing vaccines
17:49against ASF.
17:51According to the Department of Agriculture,
17:53controlled ASF vaccination
