02:05About 14 million kilos of imported rice

02:08are stored in pantalans in Manila,

02:10according to the Philippine Ports Authority.

02:12It can now be exported to the market,

02:14but consignees are still waiting to pull it out.

02:17That's why it's still stored in the Manila International Container Terminal

02:20and South Harbor.

02:21Other containers are stored for 275 days,

02:24or more than a month,

02:26according to the PPA.

02:27According to their investigation,

02:29most consignees are just waiting for the price of rice to rise in the market

02:33before it is exported.

02:35Cybersecurity for lawyers

02:37was discussed at the 2024 Asia-Pacific Corporate Council Alliance Conference in Taguig.

02:41According to Senator Coco Pimentel,

02:43in a time of deepfake, malware, and misinformation,

02:47cybersecurity should be a part of the ability of lawyers in the corporate setting.

02:52Now, lawmakers are working on ways

02:55to institutionalize policemen to fight cybercrime.

03:00The effect of artificial intelligence was also discussed at the conference.

03:03For GMA Integrated News,

03:05I'm Maris Umali,

03:07Saksi!

03:09Kapuso, we would like to remind you again

03:12not to deceive and be careful of scammers.

03:15According to SPARCL,

03:16there are people who pretend to be their executives or employees

03:19to ask for a donation for the GMA Kapuso Foundation.

03:23SPARCL will not do that,

03:25so be careful and do not give your personal information.

03:29According to Kapuso Totoo ng 24 Horas

03:32and the GMA Kapuso Foundation Official Social Media Accounts,

03:36at the GMA Kapuso Foundation website,

03:38you will find the easiest way to donate,

03:41not through text message or chat.

03:46Is the Philippines ready to join the rising nations?

03:50This is one of the topics discussed by leaders and experts

03:54to discuss good governance.

03:57Saksi! Sivona Kino!

04:00The importance of good governance

04:02and how it can help the country's economic development.

04:06This was discussed at the Global Governance Summit

04:09where the industry leaders,

04:11policy makers and experts from different parts of the world

04:14came together.

04:16Through this forum,

04:17we would like to announce that not only to the country,

04:20but to the world,

04:22that the Philippines is finally ready to join

04:25the rank of the best government in the world.

04:28We, the rank of developed nations.

04:31The Board Chair's duties were also discussed at the Summit

04:34in the midst of the ongoing challenges

04:36such as climate change, technological disruption

04:39and environmental, social and governance issues.

04:43The Chair must push the Board to think long-term,

04:46balancing short-term pressures with the need for sustainable growth.

04:50Panel discussions were also discussed

04:53on issues such as cyber security,

04:55gender diversity in corporate leadership

04:57and effective board governance.

04:59There's still much for the Philippines to do.

05:02Our DICT is setting its sights

05:05on achieving the Tier 1 objective in two years.

05:09They have a national cyber security plan.

05:11We have a long way to go.

05:13We're still at 21 versus your target of 30 to 50 female representation.

05:20But we are heading in the right direction.

05:25So I hope in the future,

05:27we will not only have a good number of women directors,

05:31but also women chairpersons.

05:34With global uncertainty, challenges can arise quickly

05:38and action may have to be taken

05:40even with less information than desirable.

05:44Thus, Boards led by the Chair

05:47need to prepare for the unknown to bolster resilience.

05:52More scenario planning will be useful in this regard.

05:55Some government officials have divided their programs

05:59to promote transparency, accountability, justice and sustainability.

06:04We want the kind of governance that underpins a robust legal framework

06:08that safeguards the rights and interests of all in a level playing field.

06:12The Philippines is one of the eight founding members

06:16of the Open Government Partnership,

06:18a multilateral initiative that promotes transparency,

06:22empowers citizens, fights corruption

06:25and harnesses new technologies to strengthen governance.

06:29Let us take this opportunity to reaffirm our adherence

06:33to the principle of good corporate governance and sustainability.

06:38Because together we can empower global prosperity,

06:41creating a future where economic growth is achieved hand in hand

06:46with social equity and environmental stewardship.

06:50For GMA Integrated News, I'm your host, Von Aquinong.

07:05Kapuso, let's all be a witness.
