00:00Good morning. Here are the first news of GMA Integrated News.
00:19The former Palawan Governor Joel Reyes has already testified in the National Bureau of Investigation-NBI.
00:26Reyes was wanted for the murder of broadcaster Gerardo Ortega in 2011.
00:33Reyes has previously denied the accusation.
00:36According to the NBI, Reyes was admitted to a hospital where he was confined due to his medical condition.
00:45The connection of Dismissed Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo to the big boss of PONGO in Bamban and Borac, Pampanga is getting clearer
00:53according to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission.
00:56A deportation case has been added to the various complaints and cases against Guo.
01:02The Judge Department believes that the Bureau of Immigration should have custody of the former mayor.
01:08Here are the first news, Salima Refran.
01:15Do you have the right to remain silent? Anything you say, you can...
01:19When he arrived in the country on the early morning of September 6,
01:22Miranda Reyes arrested and arrested the Bureau of Immigration, Dismissed Mayor Alice Guo.
01:31This is for the undesirability and misrepresentation of Guo, who is also known as Guo Huapeng.
01:38The NBI confirmed that Guo is also facing a deportation case.
01:43According to the Justice Secretary, the former mayor has many violations of immigration laws.
01:49Fake passport, her being an alien actually, her being an alien, trying to become or trying to pass herself off as a Filipino.
01:59I think that's a very major, major violation of law within our country. It's really an immigration matter.
02:08That's why when asked if the Senate or the Tarlac RTC should have custody of Guo,
02:13Remulia believes that the Bureau of Immigration should have custody of the former mayor.
02:19It's very clear that we are handling an immigration case here and that's very, very important.
02:25The immigration case has a primacy over all others when it comes to Alice Guo.
02:30An immigration case should take precedence over everything.
02:32In fact, the immigration case is non-bailable, there is no bail.
02:36This immigration case adds to the number of illegal cases that Guo is facing in various courts across the country.
02:44But just like other aliens who have cases,
02:47they need to finish them first and serve their sentence before facing deportation.
02:53Meanwhile, the Justice Department's ombudsman is just waiting for an answer
02:58regarding the Tarlac RTC's jurisdiction over Guo in its two graft cases
03:03that should be heard in the country.
03:06It's commonsensical to think that she would be more influential in that area,
03:13which is within her sphere of influence because she's the mayor of a town in the province where she's being taken as a detainee.
03:22That's why I have a discomfort right from the start regarding this matter.
03:27According to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of PAOC,
03:31Guo's connection with the alien bosses of Pogo, Bamban Tarlac, and Pura Kampanga has become clearer.
03:39The Big Bosses of Lucky South 99 are the ones who helped Guo hide in Singapore and Indonesia.
03:48This is our allegation and it will be proven in our evidence and testimony
03:53that the two of them, Pura Kampanga, belong to one criminal organization.
03:58The PAOC is also asking for a search warrant from the court to investigate
04:02the areas where Lucky South 99 raided the compound in Pura Kampanga.
04:08There are witnesses who came and said that foreign nationals buried bodies in Pura Kampanga in Lucky South 99.
04:20That's why we are now applying for a search warrant so that we can legally investigate the locations
04:30that were taught by witnesses that were not buried by foreign nationals.
04:35This is the first news. Sanny Marefran for GMA Integrated News.
04:41This is the first news that foreign nationals buried bodies in Pogo Hub in Pura Kampanga,
04:47and its connection with Pogo Hub in Bamban Tarlac.
04:50We will now talk to Director Winston Cascio, the spokesperson of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of PAOC.
04:56Good morning.
04:58Good morning Igor and good morning to our viewers.
05:03Have you obtained a warrant to investigate the buried bodies of foreign nationals in Pogo Hub in Pura Kampanga?
05:14Not yet. Last night, we had a meeting with prosecutors and our witnesses.
05:20They will have a meeting today to start drafting the application for a search warrant.
05:29Who is the source of the information Director?
05:32We have local witnesses who used to work in the area and they said that there are buried bodies here.
05:41They were taught about the locations.
05:43But as we said last night, we have to validate the information carefully so that we can apply for a warrant today.
05:52Where is Pogo Hub, the place where foreign nationals were buried?
05:57They were taught about three places where foreign nationals were buried.
06:06So of course, we're not taking it lightly.
06:10But of course, we also have to validate the information.
06:13According to the reports, that's what happened in 1999.
06:17Is this inside Pogo Hub or outside?
06:20It's inside.
06:22Inside Pogo Hub?
06:23Yes.
06:24That's their allegation that it's inside, that's where they were buried.
06:29There are two people who are saying that it's inside where foreign nationals were buried.
06:36So we're taking it seriously.
06:38Based on the information from your witnesses, how many foreign nationals were buried there?
06:45I didn't ask last night because I didn't go with them to the so-called occupant.
06:52Are there only foreign nationals or are there Filipinos with them?
06:56Only foreign nationals.
06:58They usually violate rules, internal rules.
07:04So we'll have to check.
07:07As I said, this is not a simple allegation.
07:10What they said can be true, but it can also be untrue.
07:14But then again, we would like to err on the side of caution because we're talking about the lives of people here.
07:21Yes.
07:22Director, your PORAC and Pogo Hub in Bamban, based on your investigations,
07:30is this connected to one syndicate and one of their so-called big boss?
07:37It's beginning to appear like.
07:40Before, we have already visited Bamban.
07:43We have seen the documents related to Bamban and PORAC.
07:48After Bamban, we went to this PORAC.
07:51Before, it was just a theory.
07:53But as time went by, based on the documents and testimonies, the truth was proven.
08:00This last escape of Gua Ping, that's the definite evidence that they are really together.
08:07The big boss of Lockist 1999, Jiang Ji and Duan Renwu, helped him.
08:14Yes. But in the Senate hearing, Alice Guo still denied her connection to the Pogos, Director.
08:22She can deny all she wants, but the evidence will speak for itself.
08:30The Chinese name that Alice Guo wrote in the Senate hearing, in the paper,
08:35did you recognize it? Does it have a connection to the illegal Pogos, Director?
08:39Yes. When the Senate hearing was being held, Senator Estrada gave a clue.
08:49He said the person is in Taiwan and the person has five passports.
08:55In our profile of the Pogos' bosses, only one person fits that profile.
09:03The ex-partner of Gua Ping, Wang Jiyang, is the only one who fits that profile.
09:10I also read in an interview, in a report about the interview with Senator Estrada,
09:17after the hearing, he was ambushed and interviewed.
09:22He asked if it was Wang Jiyang. The answer of our senator is most probably.
09:30I strongly believe that Wang Jiyang is the one who wrote in the paper of Gua Ping.
09:36The NBI has a plan to call Alice Guo as a woman.
09:41According to your investigation, is it confirmed that she has a face to make our investigators go crazy?
09:50I'm not sure if the intention is to make them go crazy.
09:55Or maybe these people have been idolizing Gua Ping and following her style, clothes, hair and so on.
10:06But it is within the right of the NBI. That's right.
10:10Investigate it. Maybe later, Gua Ping has doppelgangers.
10:15Good luck to your other operations. Thank you very much.
10:19I'm your host, spokesperson Director Winston Cascio. Be careful.
10:22Thank you Egan.
10:24Cassandra Lee Ong filed a petition for certiorari
10:28and asked for a temporary restraining order from the Supreme Court against the committees of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
10:33Ong is one of those who are involved in the illegal operation of Pogo in Porac, Pampanga,
10:38and is facing a hearing in the Quadcom in the House of Representatives.
10:42Attorney Ferdinand Topacio said that the judges are going too far in forcing Ong to answer.
10:48Ong wants to be jailed more than answering the questions of the judges who are already affected by his mental health.
10:57He's shouting, he's being ridiculed, he's being ridiculed, he's being intimidated, he's being threatened.
11:03There are very insulting words that are being said to him.
11:06You are the witnesses of this.
11:09That's the only thing we want to stop.
11:11Once the right to remain silent is invoked, no further questionings should be made.
11:18Sen. Rizon Tiveros admitted that the Supreme Court will demand the power of the Senate to issue a subpoena and contempt.
11:26Congressman Dan Fernandez said that Ong cannot use the right to remain silent.
11:31He can invoke the right against self-incrimination, depending on the question.
11:36Topacio told Fernandez that he should not comment on the merit of the petition.
11:43If Fernandez will continue, Topacio will be forced to eat motion to have him cite in contempt of the court.
11:51If Fernandez will not comment, he will be fired.
12:01San Sebastian Staggs made a comeback against LPU Pirates in their match in NCAA Season 100 Men's Basketball.
12:08In the last minute of the 4th quarter, Staggs had a 12-0 run to chase the 10-point lead of the Pirates.
12:16The game ended with a final score of 95-93.
12:20Because of that, Staggs had two wins and they still did not lose.
12:24Meanwhile, Mapua Cardinals and EAC Generals also had a close game.
12:29In the end, the Cardinals won the score of 69-66.
12:35They both have a 1-1 standing this season.
12:38You can watch the game of NCAA Season 100 live on JTV at Heart of Asia
12:43and also on the live stream on the social media pages of NCAA Philippines and JMA Sports.
12:50There was a deep discussion between the Philippines and China regarding the next incident of harassment in Escoda Shoal
12:57according to the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
12:59China also reiterated that they have the right to the Escoda Shoal
13:04and urged the Philippines to remove our ships from there.
13:07Moreover, the Philippines and China agreed to maintain diplomacy and communication regarding the issues in the South China Sea.
13:16JMA Integrated News even tried to get a statement from the Department of Foreign Affairs,
13:22before the DFA tested the harassment of China in the Escoda Shoal,
13:28which is part of the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines.
13:32The Philippine Navy also said that they have a plan in case China tries to attack the BRP Teresa Magbanwa
13:38which is anchored in the Escoda Shoal.
13:41The Philippine Navy gave other details but the AFP-Warsan Command already knew about the protocol regarding that.
13:52As of September, the price of rice decreased according to those who sell it in Mega Q Mart.
13:57However, there is a type of rice that is limited in supply now.
14:01Live from Quezon City, we have the first news, James Agustin.
14:04James, what is this type of rice?
14:10Maris, good morning.
14:11Those who sell rice here in Mega Q Mart are hoping that the supply of 45 pesos per kilo of rice will continue.
14:19As of now, Maris, the supply is limited.
14:21But even if it is limited, it is pleasing to those who we talked to, Mami Mili.
14:2845 pesos per kilo is the cheapest weld mill rice that can be bought from Mega Q Mart in Quezon City.
14:35But it is said that the supply is limited according to those who sell it.
14:38That's why they are giving limited rice to Mami Mili.
14:41If the supply of rice is limited, you can give them 3 kilos.
14:47But if it is more, you can give them 5 kilos.
14:50I hope that the supply of rice will continue so that we can help other people.
14:59The price of other types of rice also decreased.
15:02Local rice is 52 pesos to 55 pesos per kilo.
15:06The imported rice is 56 pesos to 60 pesos per kilo.
15:10The price of imported rice depends on the type of rice.
15:12Since September, the price of imported rice decreased.
15:17Because of the tariff, the price of imported rice decreased from 35 percent to 15 percent.
15:22What will happen is that the price of imported rice will decrease compared to the price of local rice.
15:27Of course, it is in our favor.
15:29For the people, those who can grow their own rice, they don't need to suffer.
15:32I hope that the price of imported rice will continue to decrease.
15:36We don't grow our own rice.
15:38Why? Because of our tracking.
15:40If the price of imported rice decreases, it is because of them.
15:44Mami Mili is happy that the price of imported rice decreased.
15:47Just like those who have a business and buy rice every day.
15:50It is a big help.
15:52Why?
15:53Because, of course, those who buy rice, if the price of imported rice decreases, they will buy rice.
16:00We will decrease the price of imported rice.
16:05We will decrease the price of imported rice.
16:06We will decrease the price of imported rice.
16:11Meanwhile, Marie, when I was going around the rice markets here in Mega Q Mart,
16:15there are places where their stock of 45 pesos of cheap rice is only 10 to 20 pesos.
16:22If that supply is no longer available, they will not be able to sell to their Mami Mili.
16:26That is why those who are selling can really hope that the supply of this cheap rice will continue.
16:33That is the first news.
16:34From Quezon City, I am James Agustin for GEMA Integrated News.
16:39Some of our countrymen are already saving.
16:42Now, there is a rise in electricity prices.
16:44I am hoping that it will continue in the next month.
16:47There is a live news.
16:48This is Bea Pinla.
16:50Bea.
16:55Marie, the rise in electricity prices is at 15 centavos per kilowatt hour this September.
17:00So, there is no electricity bill for this month.
17:02Some consumers are already paying.
17:04They are saying that they will save on electricity bills.
17:12Mang Teresito's family is not able to watch TV shows anymore
17:17because their consumption of electricity is rising.
17:22We will just watch on our cellphones.
17:24We will just charge it.
17:27They will save more this month because of the rise in electricity bills of 15 centavos per kilowatt hour.
17:34That is almost P31 for a bill that consumes 200 kilowatt hours per month.
17:40Meralco explained that this is because of the increased transmission charge.
17:44Meralco added an additional charge in October after the Energy Regulatory Commission approved
17:51the new fuel supply contract that will be passed to consumers.
17:55People are getting used to it.
17:57It is hard for us because we don't have a good job.
18:02If you will add more electricity, it will be hard for us.
18:07We don't have anything to do.
18:09That's what they said.
18:10I am just working on electricity.
18:12For the bakery owner, Kier, it is hard to save on electricity,
18:17especially when they are open 24 hours a day.
18:20What is their discard to save on electricity bills?
18:25If we don't use electricity anymore, we will just turn it off.
18:29Just like the refrigerator.
18:31At night, the soft drinks are not that strong.
18:36We will just turn it off.
18:37We just open it in the morning when there are a lot of people buying.
18:41But for some, it is not that easy to save on electricity.
18:45We just use a beater and electricity.
18:48It is hard to save on electricity, especially when it is hot.
18:51We just use a ventilator.
18:53With a ventilator, if you have a lot of family members,
18:56you can use four ventilators.
18:59That's why it is expensive.
19:06Maris, adding more electricity is bad for the economy.
19:09That's why we talked to some people.
19:11Aside from saving on electricity,
19:14they are asking for double payments so they can get extra income to pay for electricity.
19:18That's the first news from Navotas Bejapinlac for GMA Integrated News.
19:25The people in the backdoor exit of the Philippines have not changed,
19:29according to Senator Rafi Tulfo.
19:31Yesterday, he told the Senate about the harassment committed by some OFWs
19:35who were victims of human trafficking.
19:38That's the first news of Mark Salazar.
19:44Senator Rafi Tulfo stood in the plenary to tell how human traffickers
19:50outside the country harassed their OFWs.
19:54This is probably the route that Alice Guo used in their escape to the country.
20:00The modus of human traffickers and illegal recruiters in Tulfo's story has not changed.
20:06They locked down their jobs in Europe in exchange for a placement fee of P400,000.
20:12But the way to go to Europe is illegal.
20:17They started their journey on August 6.
20:21They took a commercial flight from Manila to Zamboanga.
20:26On August 7, they took a flight from Zamboanga to Tawi-Tawi.
20:31On August 8, they continued their journey by boat.
20:37Here, one of the OFWs was kidnapped by their banker.
20:45In fear of being thrown into the sea, he was not able to escape.
20:50On the night of August 8, they arrived in Semporna, Sabah.
20:56From Sabah to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Makatawid to Thailand,
21:01it is clear to the victims that they entered a dangerous place.
21:05They called their recruiter.
21:08They told them the reasons.
21:11They even tried to ask for money to fix the problem.
21:17They were shocked.
21:19The group called their families because their recruiter warned them
21:26that if they do not give extra money, they will have problems
21:31because they left their luggage with drugs.
21:35This case was closed to Tulfo and DMW, that's why they were saved.
21:40But there are still many people in this situation.
21:43This issue was referred to the Committee on Labor and Committee on Justice and Human Rights
21:48to investigate.
21:50This is the first news.
21:52Mark Salazar for GMA Integrated News.
21:57The face-to-face meeting of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ
22:00founder Pastor Apollo Quiboloy
22:02regarding the sexual abuse within their organization.
22:05It does not start yet.
22:07There is a new accusation against the pastor.
22:10First news, Ian Cruz.
22:14The new sexual abuse accusations against Pastor Apollo Quiboloy
22:19were reported to the police while they were conducting an operation
22:24in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound in Davao City.
22:28The victims are members of the group of women called pastoral
22:33or those in the inner circle of Quiboloy.
22:36The youngest of them is 16 years old.
22:40The parents of the victims themselves approached the police.
22:45According to PNP chief Rommel Francisco Marbil,
22:48the victims accused the victims of their horrific experiences
22:53that showed an alarming pattern of sexual abuse.
22:57They are now investigating the evidence
23:00to strengthen the case against Quiboloy.
23:03They were also victimized by Pastor Quiboloy allegedly.
23:07He was also abused allegedly.
23:09Quiboloy's lawyer, attorney Israelito Torion,
23:13has not yet commented on this
23:15because the PNP has not yet given a clear detail.
23:20There were hearings in the Senate
23:22regarding the first allegations of sexual abuse
23:25against some members of the KOJC.
23:27Quiboloy did not attend, so he was contempted this March.
23:31His questions are now collected.
23:34How was it set up that the people he recruited
23:38as believers in him and his kingdom
23:42instead abused women and minors,
23:47men, but he also tortured them,
23:50he forced them to commit sexual abuse
23:52so that he could sustain his wealth,
23:57his human trafficking in different parts of the Philippines
24:03and even in other countries.
24:05Quiboloy's case is now being planned in the Senate.
24:08The next hearing of the Committee on Women, Children,
24:13Family Relations, and Gender Equality is yet to be announced.
24:16I will write to the Supreme Court
24:19so that maybe he is also here
24:22as a follow-up to the Standing Warrant of the Senate for him.
24:26GMA Integrated News tried to get Quiboloy's opinion
24:30about this through his lawyer,
24:33but they did not answer our texts and calls.
24:36Senator Bato de la Rosa also wants to know
24:39the details of Quiboloy's case this past Sunday night.
24:42I was not able to understand the exact details of his surrender.
24:48He was just hiding inside.
24:50He was just inside.
24:52If he surrendered, how did he involve ISAP?
24:56There was no ISAP inside.
24:58Right?
24:59There was no ISAP inside the compound of the QGC
25:03for him to surrender.
25:05The police were allowed to control the area.
25:08Quiboloy was charged with child and sexual abuse
25:11by Quiboloy and his accomplices
25:13in the Quezon City RTC Branch 106.
25:16If the court gives its consent,
25:19Pastor and Cresente Canada will be transferred
25:22to this prison in the Quezon City Jail.
25:25In the female dorm,
25:27Jackie Linroy, Ingrid Canada, and Silvia Semanyes will be jailed.
25:32It depends on the security assessment
25:34if they will be mixed with another person deprived of liberty.
25:38What is the treatment?
25:40How we classify?
25:41If it's a cell?
25:42A treatment for an ordinary PDL?
25:45It's the same for him.
25:47He's just an ordinary PDL in terms of budget.
25:50For now, the accused is being held at the PNP Custodial Center
25:54because of the PNP's motion.
25:56Quiboloy's camp would have preferred house arrest
26:00or to be transferred to the custody of the AFP,
26:02which is against the Department of National Defense.
26:06There is a strict security protocol in the AFP facilities
26:09so suspects with criminal cases cannot be jailed.
26:14The DOJ has already asked the court to grant it.
26:18As far as I remember,
26:21those who are being given house arrest
26:23are those who did not resist or agreed to be arrested.
26:31This is the first news, Ian Cruz for GMA Integrated News.
