NewsTranscript
00:00The residents of West Riverside, Barangay San Antonio, in Quezon City, participated in a large-scale fire this morning.
00:23According to the Bureau of Fire Protection, the fire was immediately put out by the second alarm.
00:28The fire spread quickly because most of the houses were made of light materials.
00:3350 houses were put out by the fire and more than 200 families lost their homes.
00:39The BFP is investigating the cause of the fire as part of the Arson.
00:46Qualified Human Trafficking will be added to the cases faced by Dismissed Mayor Alice Guo.
00:53She is now being sued by the DOJ, as well as her business partners and other personalities.
01:00The so-called case is now available.
01:02Salima Refran is a witness.
01:04Zuniwan Technology was raided in Baufu Compound in Bamban, Tarlac in March
01:12due to allegations of human torture, kidnapping, illegal detention, forced labor, and scamming.
01:18It became the subject of a few months of Senate investigation.
01:22The questions about the ownership of land and connection to Pugo were raised by Bamban Mayor Alice Guo.
01:30Six months after the raid, the allegations of human trafficking against the former mayor were brought to court.
01:37The DOJ is now suing Alice Guo, or Guo Huaping, of Qualified Human Trafficking.
01:44This shows that there is prima facie evidence of reasonable certainty of conviction
01:49against Mayor Alice Guo and other respondents.
01:52As long as you show that you are involved in the establishment and organization of a business or a company
01:59that is involved in human trafficking, you will be able to sue for human trafficking.
02:04Guo admitted to the Senate hearings that she is the incorporator of Baufu, where Zuniwan is located.
02:11In 2019, Guo bought the land where the compound is now located.
02:17But Guo sold shares in Baufu before she became mayor in 2022.
02:26In her counter-argument, Guo stated that it is wrong and misleading to say that she knows about illegal Pugo activities
02:33because she used to be a stockholder of Baufu.
02:36But that counter-argument is what the notary said on August 14,
02:42when Guo was not in the Philippines.
02:45That is why the panel of prosecutors did not notice the so-called counter-argument.
02:49We cannot deny that there are a lot of delaying tactics that were used by Mayor Alice Guo's lawyers.
02:54The most dangerous one is the last thing they did.
02:56When the case was submitted for resolution, they filed a motion to reopen the case with a motion to admit a counter-affidavit.
03:02We all know that this is a fake counter-affidavit.
03:04Guo's foreign business partners in Baufu Land Development are also being sued.
03:09The Chinese fugitive Wang Jiyang and Jiang Weijin and Lin Baoying who were involved in money laundering in Singapore.
03:33Former Technology and Livelihood Resource Center official Dennis Kunanan and
03:38several other respondents from Baufu Land, Hongsheng Gaming and Zunyuan Technology.
03:44Next week, non-bailable cases will be filed in Tarlac RTC.
03:49The DOJ asked the Supreme Court to transfer the cases to Metro Manila.
03:54Kunanan's lawyer said that they did not expect the DOJ's decision
03:58because there is no evidence that Kunanan is guilty.
04:03We tried to get a statement from the field of other defendants, but there is still no response.
04:11This is separate from Guo's case of violation of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act
04:16based on the arrest warrant that he was faced with when he came from Indonesia
04:21and a commitment order that is why he is now detained in the PNP Custodial Center.
04:26Now, the arraignment or reading of the indictment to Guo should be in Kapas Tarlac RTC Branch 109.
04:32But they were not there because of the order of President Judge Sara Vedania de los Santos
04:37to transfer the case from them to Valenzuela RTC.
04:41This was followed by Republic Act 10-660 and Office of the Court Administrator Circular No. 10-2024
04:49that the case of a government official should not be transferred to the judicial region where he works.
04:56The Justice Department said that the nearest judicial region in Kapas is Valenzuela.
05:02On Wednesday, the case will be raffled in Valenzuela RTC.
05:05Guo's lawyer still has no answer when we asked for a statement in the so-called text.
05:10Aside from qualified human trafficking and case of graft,
05:13Guo is also facing cancellation of his birth certificate in Tarlac RTC
05:18if this will happen in the Manila RTC and deportation case in the Bureau of Immigration.
05:23There are also allegations of money laundering and tax evasion here in the Department of Justice.
05:29In the PNP Custodial Center, Guo is still detained because there is no order to transfer him to prison.
05:35Sen. Rizo Onteveros also wrote Valenzuela RTC to allow Guo to attend the next Senate hearing on Tuesday.
05:44Guo's body double, Alya Scott, who arrived at the NBI earlier, is also expected to appear in the Senate.
05:51Alya Scott is afraid for her safety.
05:55There was a motorbike that hit a stop in front of our house.
05:59When I got out, I took a picture.
06:01But he was wearing a helmet.
06:02We have two more vans.
06:04All of them are men.
06:06One of them was at the terminal.
06:08The other one is in a nearby store.
06:11GMA Integrated News asked Alya Scott about the CCTV video
06:15where it was shown that she was in Sambales to court those who were chasing the mayor.
06:22Alya Scott did not answer the questions.
06:24For GMA Integrated News, I am Sanima Raffa of Inyong Saksi.
06:31A child was rescued who was being sold online by his own father.
06:35The motive of the suspect is to steal.
06:38Saksi, this is John Consulta.
06:41This is John Consulta.
06:49This man used a human shield on his son during the NBI Special Task Force operation.
06:58But in the end, the 28-year-old was arrested by the suspect.
07:02According to the NBI, the suspect followed his own 11-month-old son on social media.
07:09After verification, we talked to his report.
07:15We confirmed that he was selling a child for P55,000.
07:21His son was the one who was selling it to us.
07:27The motive is to pretend to be his accomplice,
07:30who refused to take revenge on him.
07:33The suspect has been filing several complaints.
07:35We are still trying to get his statement.
07:38We have charged him with child trafficking and resistance and disobedience to persons in authority.
07:45This is the DSWT who rescued a child.
07:48For GMA Integrated News, I am John Consulta of Inyong Saksi.
07:55The Senate inspected several companies, clients, and gaming companies in other countries.
08:00Of course, to make sure that the so-called companies in the Philippines will not be used,
08:04so that the children can be returned.
08:07Saksi, this is Ian Kru.
08:12The Senate Games and Amusement Committee wants to know
08:15what kind of operation are these special class VPO in Pasay City.
08:20Especially since their client is a gaming entity in other countries.
08:24Do the Senators suspect that POGO is using them?
08:28To make sure that POGO cannot be returned,
08:32we also want to know what are the legal and business process outsourcing that the Filipinos are hiring.
08:39Because the client is a gaming company, they are under POGO, not like other VPO under DTI.
08:47But their role is not in the game itself, but in the administrative, customer service, or marketing.
08:55There is no involvement in betting.
09:05A client in Australia was the first VPO to be visited.
09:08In the UK and US, the clients were the second VPO to be visited.
09:12Pagcor hopes to continue the operation of special class VPO,
09:16where the unemployed can also move to POGO.
09:22There are 5,000 employees in the special class VPO in the country now,
09:26and 95% of them are required Filipinos.
09:30That's why Pagcor wants them not to be included in the execution of the executive order for POGO Ban.
09:37I don't want President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to be the president.
09:41I have a personal gut feeling that there is a high chance that he will not be included in the execution.
09:51The whole Senate will talk about it.
09:53But from what I saw earlier in the special class VPO, they are not doing anything illegal.
10:02As of August 31, more than 28,000 Filipinos are the latest number to lose their jobs.
10:08That's why Pagcor assured that POGO will not be in the country until January 1, 2025,
10:15according to the President's Directive.
10:17There is a program that DOLE is doing now.
10:20They are doing job matching.
10:23They can apply for jobs that will be matched by DOLE.
10:30For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz is your witness.
10:35It will only take a few hours for the Philippine Area of Responsibility to receive the 6th typhoon in the PIR this year.
10:42That's according to the forecast.
10:44It's possible that this evening or later in the afternoon, the typhoon will be outside our area of responsibility.
10:50But some parts of Luzon will be affected by the trough or extension of the typhoon Ferdi.
10:55The remaining part of the country may be affected by the strongest typhoon Habagat.
11:00According to the advisory issued by PAGASA on the effects of Habagat in the next few days,
11:05starting tonight until tomorrow afternoon,
11:08there will be heavy rains in Mimaropa, Western Visayas, Sorsogon, and Negros Occidental.
11:14In such heavy rains, the risk of flood or landslide is high.
11:19In Zambales, Bataan, Metro Manila, Calabarzon, the remaining part of Bicol Region and Visayas,
11:27Misamis Occidental, Zamboanga del Norte, Lanao del Norte, Lanao del Sur, Maguindanao, Sultan Kudarat, and Sarangani.
11:35From tomorrow afternoon until Sunday afternoon,
11:38there will be heavy to intense rains in Mimaropa, Aclan, Antique, and Negros Occidental.
11:44Moderate to heavy rains in Bicol Region, the remaining part of Negros Island Region, and the remaining part of Western Visayas.
11:52In Metro Manila, there is a high chance of rain tomorrow, Sunday, and Monday afternoon, based on the Metro Weather.
11:59After Hurricane Ferdie, there will be two new storms in the area near PAR.
12:09Heavy rains, landslides, and floods brought by Hurricane Ferdie and Habagat in some parts of Luzon and Visayas.
12:15Witness, EJ Gomez.
12:18Five barangays in the town of Del Gallego in Camarines Sur are isolated.
12:23The spillway was flooded by residents.
12:27Heavy rains in Naga City last night, so monitoring of flood-prone and landslide-prone areas continues.
12:34Some residents had a hard time traveling and looking for food because of the heavy rains.
12:39But despite the rains, the procession for the Tibino Rostro Festival continued.
12:46The procession started at 3 p.m. yesterday.
12:49According to the local government, the number of devotees is up to one million.
12:55Just a few days ago, a procession joined the procession to transfer the image of Our Lady of Peña Francia to Old Shrine and Parish.
13:04There were no unexpected floods according to the Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office or MDRRMO.
13:09We have rescue boats and rescue teams from the Special Rescue Unit of AFP and Bureau of Fire Protection.
13:18The Philippine Coast Guard is stationed near the river and their water assets are also there.
13:25The entry to Sor Sugon was canceled due to the heavy rains.
13:29Heavy rain was left on this road in the town of Huban.
13:34Some parts of San Jose Occidental Mindoro were also flooded.
13:37There were places where the water was up to the hips.
13:40Visibility to JP Laurel Highway in Lipa City in Batangas was almost zero.
13:45The same is the case with the part of S-Lex in San Pedro, Laguna.
13:48In Cebalong, Antique, the use of some residents after the heavy rains last night was flooded.
13:55More than 1,000 residents were evacuated throughout the province.
14:00545 families were evacuated including 1,825 persons in our municipalities in Antique.
14:10In Santa Catarina, Negros Oriental, more than 100 residents were evacuated due to the heavy rains.
14:16In addition to that, more than 1,000 were evacuated from other parts of the province.
14:21The river and spillway there are monitored due to flooding.
14:25In Panglao, Bohol, a boatman drowned after falling from a boat yesterday.
14:30According to PCG Western Bohol, they did not prohibit island hopping because the weather was fine.
14:36But around noon, the wind suddenly blew that hit three boats.
14:4120 tourists were saved but the 62-year-old boatman was not saved.
14:46Visayas hope confirmed that Panglao is one of the places where they raised the thunderstorm advisory yesterday.
14:54For GMA Integrative News, EJ Gomez is your witness.
15:00From tomorrow, Naia will run a private company and will be in charge of its rehabilitation.
15:06How about the employees of Manila International Airport Authority?
15:10Mark Salazar is the witness.
15:15In the passenger terminals of Naia, you will not see any movement or impact.
15:21If there are businesses inside that have not renewed the rental agreement with the New Naia Infrastructure Corporation or NNIC,
15:29which is the new headquarter of the airport.
15:32In Terminal 3, we asked the store employees what is the tone of their bosses to them.
15:38They should be the ones to say, sir.
15:41No, we still have a passenger.
15:43There is no passenger yet, right?
15:45The effect of takeover in the area is not visible.
15:49Oh, it is felt by the employees early in the morning, especially the service contractors.
15:55Did you renew their contract at the airport?
15:58Do they still have work tomorrow?
16:01They said, sir, it is continuous.
16:07They just said.
16:08But how about you? Will you pass tomorrow?
16:10Yes, because we were told that we still have a duty until tomorrow.
16:15There are employees who announced a retrenchment earlier and it is effective tomorrow.
16:21Joseph is resting because he was not included in the retrenchment.
16:25I am a bit shocked.
16:27Of course, I am nervous, sir, if we will pass or not.
16:31We were told, sir, that all those who were mentioned are not included.
16:37There are about 150 people who were removed from us.
16:44The employees of Manila International Airport Authority or MIA.
16:48In terms of the transferring employees of the so-called affected employees,
16:54NNIC has an offer for them.
16:57Number one, they have a 25% increase in their basic salary.
17:02Number two, they will receive a signing bonus.
17:06The Department of Transportation promised that in privatization,
17:11the capacity of the airport will increase from 35 million passengers a year to 62 million passengers.
17:18From 40 airplanes per hour that can fly and land, 48 airplanes can do it per hour.
17:26In the rehabilitation of the airport, 58,000 jobs will be given to the people.
17:32Most of the passengers we talked to are not affected by privatization
17:38or even if the terminal fee increases a bit.
17:41Maybe there will be better transportation because it will become a private sector.
17:49This is an international airport, sir.
17:51It would be better if the government can address the shortcomings of the private sector.
18:00That would be better.
18:01But I hope that there will be changes and it will not restrict the normal people.
18:09For example, if this is a private sector, I don't know if the price will increase here.
18:13NIA has said before that the terminal fee increase in NIA will not be implemented immediately.
18:19For GMA Integrated News, I am Mark Salazar, your witness.
18:27Attorney Harry Roque, a former presidential spokesperson, was dismissed from the law office
18:31after the second contempt of his camera.
18:35This is because he did not support and submit the documents requested by the committee.
18:40But Roque was not there and his staff did not accept the arrest order.
18:45According to the Quad Committee Lead Chairman, Rep. Ace Barbers,
18:49they are waiting for the documents that Roque promised
18:52that explain the sudden increase in the value of his company, Biancham Holdings, Inc.
18:58In a text message, Roque said
19:00that the police and the prosecutor should be prepared for any evidence against him in Fogo.
19:07He also called a witch hunt,
19:09forcing him to submit private documents of his family that had nothing to do with the so-called investigation.
19:18The 12-day papal trip of Pope Francis in Asia and Oceania ended in a mass in Singapore.
19:26More than 50,000 people attended the mass held in their national stadium.
19:31Before the mass, St. Paul first rotated the stadium in his white golf cart to greet the people,
19:37including students, children, and people with relatives.
19:43Among the 12-day trip of St. Paul were Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and Timor-Leste.
19:50This was Pope Francis' longest trip as St. Paul.
19:55Despite his medical conditions in the past years.
20:06There was no envy in the arrival of each one.
20:09That's what The Voice Kids Philippines coaches Stell and Pablo of SB19 shared
20:15in their interview earlier on Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
20:20Maybe because we know the struggles of each one,
20:23and I'll just say, you deserve that.
20:27Stell and Pablo's story is super warm and supportive to each one,
20:31including their group.
20:33And instead of being envious, they are even happier if there are new fans
20:37that they can get along with because it adds to the support to SB19.
20:43Watch out for Stell and Pablo in The Voice Kids,
20:46which will be aired on September 15 at 7 p.m.
20:54Excited for the start of the race for the title in The Clash 2024 tomorrow,
21:00the judges are Lani Misalucha, Christian Bautista, and Ai-Ai De Las Alas.
21:06The Clash Masters are Raver Cruz and Julian San Jose.
21:10They learned more from each other because of the show.
21:14Their friendship helped them to improve their hosting skills.
21:21The Clash 2024 will be aired tomorrow at 7.15 p.m. on GMA.
21:32It's not easy to be satisfied with the food of different restaurants
21:36in Navotas and Muntinlupa.
21:38Even the eyes of the customers will be satisfied and amazed
21:42with the old cars that became instant food.
21:45Watch out for Jamie Santos.
21:52In the middle of Navotas, there's a boat with the captain's order to board.
21:59All aboard!
22:03While enjoying the view of the city and Manila Bay in Aberdech,
22:07Andy Sambiup is going down to the table.
22:10There's a lot of good feedback that this place is delicious.
22:13And it's affordable.
22:14The bench is like a boat.
22:16This restaurant is called Malanoa's Art.
22:19It's an old office.
22:20And the owner has a shipyard.
22:24On the birthday of the owner,
22:26we tried to order sangyup.
22:30Then we tried here.
22:32Until we decided that this can be sangyup in Manila.
22:35From the boat, let's go to the bus.
22:38This restaurant is located in Muntinlupa.
22:41It has two floors and is next to the parish.
22:44This restaurant has been open for more than a year.
22:47It was the idea of Father Randy.
22:49Because of sentimental value,
22:51Father Randy deserves this bus
22:53that has been the service of seminarians and now priests.
22:56People are also happy that whenever they go to church,
23:00they go here.
23:02They have a place to go for their breakfast.
23:07Every Sunday, it's like a family gathering.
23:12The food choices are heaven-sent.
23:14From pancit, sisling pares,
23:17to Ilongo's specialty, KBL,
23:20or Kadyos Baboy at Langka.
23:22There's also a cafe next to it if you want to relax.
23:25For Father Randy,
23:27he's not the only one who gets full from dining in the restaurant.
23:31We also teach them to go to church.
23:34Because whenever they eat here,
23:36others go to church.
