00:13We'll add more permissions to the commuters to pour rain in Metro Manila this morning.
00:19We have live first news, Bam Alegre. Bam?
00:23🎵
00:26Good morning, Susan. This is one of the places for commuters to go to EDSA Northbound.
00:31How does this place look like?
00:33EDSA and Rojas Boulevard, especially with the addition of hassle, the weather is a bit gloomy right now.
00:43Here in Magdamag, the rain didn't stop in Metro Manila like here in EDSA Corner, Rojas Boulevard in Pasay City.
00:48It's not strong, but it was heavy and the road was left wet.
00:52This is a hassle for his commuter, Harry Almeral, who is on his way to work in BJC.
00:56Since he's just a commuter, he needs to bring a back-up shirt in case it gets wet in the rain.
01:01How hard is it for you?
01:03It's very hard, since the jeepney is wet.
01:07It's not allowed to go in the rain, so we'll bring another one.
01:12Eric Bonafus needs to travel to Makati City for his shift.
01:17If the weather is bad, he'll experience heavy traffic, so he needs to apply for an allowance for his commute.
01:23It's hard to commute in the rain.
01:25You really need to hurry.
01:33Good news for the commuters here.
01:35There are a lot of vehicles and there's no build-up so far.
01:38Even the vehicular traffic is moderate even though the rush hour has already started.
01:42This is the first news from Pasay, Bama Lagre for GMA Integrated News.
01:47The number of Filipinos who have no job in August is decreasing.
01:51According to the Philippine Statistic Authority, the unemployment rate dropped to four percent or 2.07 million Filipinos.
01:59That's a big drop from 2.38 million unemployed in July.
02:03There are a lot of jobs in the services sector and agriculture in August.
02:09There are also more workers in the wholesale and retail industry.
02:13Usually, there are more workers before Christmas.
02:17There are 5.48 million underemployed or those who have jobs but their income is lower.
02:25That's why they are short in their income.
02:31According to the Senate, it's possible that China organized the entry of Dismissed Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo or Guo Huaping.
02:41She was accused of being a former member of the self-confessed Chinese spy, Xi Yang.
02:47Guo was again accused of not being a spy of China.
02:51Here's the first news from Ma'am Gonzalez.
02:57The lawyer who is preparing to run as the mayor of Bamban Tarlac said that the dismissed mayor Alice Guo in the Senate hearing
03:05is not a candidate for the election of 2025.
03:09I cleared the accusations against me.
03:13I cleaned myself first to be fair to my constituents.
03:19Komelek was recommended to file a case of defamation in the Omnibus Election Code against Guo.
03:25Because of the material misrepresentation,
03:27she was accused of lying to her Certificate of Candidacy when she ran as the Bamban Mayor of 2022.
03:33Guo's camp has not yet agreed to Komelek's recommendation.
03:37This will add to Guo's various cases and complaints,
03:41such as human trafficking, money laundering, and others related to Bamban Tarlac.
03:45The Senate hearing came out from the Philippines.
03:49Guo drove an airplane to Malaysia.
03:51She denied what she said during the last hearings that they used a boat to leave the country last July.
03:57She entered Malaysia via air.
03:59Via air.
04:00On July 18.
04:01So what Sheila Guo is saying, that she boarded a boat, is also totally false.
04:07If you conclude that...
04:09We might presume that, Your Honor.
04:11Why did you have an entry on July 18 in KL?
04:19Sir, regarding the time for my right against self-incrimination.
04:24The Chinese journalist Wang Fugui,
04:28who used to be a confederate of the self-confessed Chinese spy Xie Zhijiang,
04:32also made a statement during the hearing.
04:33Xie believed in the Al Jazeera documentary that Guo was also a Chinese spy.
04:38The Chinese journalist also said that they were confederates of Xie for one and a half years
04:42and became close friends.
04:44He had access to the documents he was holding.
04:47Wang also said that Guo was a Chinese spy, but he was not special.
04:51In addition, the Chinese government itself arranged Guo's entry into politics.
04:56Guo Huaping's election was arranged by the Chinese National Security Agency.
05:01Mr. Zhijiang's experience is also similar.
05:05Wang also mentioned Xie's contact with the Chinese Communist Party,
05:08which is a Madong Li, who is also a possible handler of Guo.
05:12I don't have a handler.
05:13I'm not a spy.
05:14I don't know him.
05:15He probably needs media mileage now.
05:18Maybe he has other motives.
05:21Based on the record of the Bureau of Immigration,
05:24Xie and Madong Li entered the country more than 20 times.
05:28Mr. Xie was imprisoned in Thailand for the same crimes,
05:33human trafficking, scamming.
05:35Madong Li is a partner of Mr. Xie in the Yatai Myanmar Company,
05:43which operates the Pogo Hub in Myanmar.
05:47Mr. Veros helped the Department of Foreign Affairs to talk to Xie.
05:52I have persuasive information that the file of at least one young brother is with Xie,
06:00conforming that young brother as a foreign agent.
06:04It seems that our entire government, not just us in the legislature,
06:08you in the executive, will get important information.
06:13This is the first news.
06:14Mav Gonzales for GMA Integrated News.
06:27Within 8 days of the filing of the Certificate of Candidacy,
06:30184 people obtained the Certificate of Candidacy as a Senator.
06:35160 party-list groups obtained the Candidacy.
06:41The first news is from Sandra Aguinaldo.
06:46Pastor Apollo Q. Buloy will run for Senator even though he was imprisoned
06:51for the crimes of child abuse and human trafficking.
06:54Under the Certificate of Candidacy obtained by his lawyer,
06:57the Workers and Peasants Party or WPP is included as a party.
07:02How will he campaign?
07:03We will campaign for him.
07:05The people of the Philippines will campaign for him.
07:08Like other aspirants, he accepted the COC,
07:11but there's no guarantee that his name will be included in the ballot.
07:15Considering that the COC is already here,
07:17I will beg of you that we will not answer first
07:19because if ever the question will be raised to the common leg
07:23and the common leg has to decide about it.
07:25But on WPP,
07:26they accepted that Q. Buloy will run under their party.
07:31According to the group's president, Atty. Sani Matula,
07:34none of the three authorized signatures in their group
07:38were included in the CONA or Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance of Q. Buloy.
07:43The CONA is one of the requirements
07:45that is included in the common leg along with the Certificate of Candidacy.
07:50According to Q. Buloy's camp,
07:52WPP approved the inclusion of the COC under the party.
07:59According to the common leg,
08:00there's a time for the commission to resolve this issue.
08:04The candidacy also invited Kiko Pangilinan to return to the Senate
08:09who was accompanied by his wife Sharon Coneta.
08:12He will run under the Liberal Party.
08:14Atty. Vic Rodriguez will also run as a senator.

13:15and the issues of agriculture
13:17and the dispute
13:18regarding the visit of President Bongbong Marcos
13:20to the Lao People's Democratic Republic.
13:24We are live with Ivan Mayrina.
13:28Ivan.
13:29Good morning everyone.
13:32Hello from Vientiane.
13:33I am the Speaker of the Lao People's Democratic Republic
13:36where this morning,
13:37the 44th and 45th Association of Southeast Asian Nations
13:42or ASEAN Summit will formally open.
13:44On the first day of President Bongbong Marcos
13:46here in the Lao PDR,
13:48his first official engagement
13:50is the bilateral meeting
13:51of the Vietnam Prime Minister Pham Minh Chin
13:54in the context of the dispute
13:56between the Philippines and Vietnam
13:58particularly in agriculture and fisheries.
14:01Vietnam is one of the first countries
14:03to obtain imported rice from the Philippines.
14:06Aside from that,
14:07the two countries have the same experience
14:09in the incidents of harassment of China
14:11to their fishermen.
14:12Recently,
14:1310 Vietnamese fishermen were injured
14:15in the harassment of the Chinese forces
14:17which also includes
14:18a part of the exclusive economic zone of Vietnam
14:21like the one we regularly see
14:23in the EEZ of the Philippines.
14:25According to the signed agreements,
14:27the issue of incident prevention
14:29in the South China Sea.
14:31Meanwhile,
14:32after this bilateral meeting,
14:34the President attended
14:35the meeting of the Filipino community
14:37here in the Lao PDR.
14:39This is the President's first time in Laos
14:41and he himself admitted
14:42that there are more than 2,000 Filipinos
14:44working and making good marks
14:46here in the Lao People's Democratic Republic.
14:49A member of the Filipino community
14:51attended the meeting.
14:53The Filipinos here are highly regarded.
14:55Like Ambassador Tina Joy Amatong.
14:59There are many teachers,
15:00engineers,
15:01managers
15:02and skilled workers.
15:04The President welcomed the Filipinos here
15:06and thanked them
15:07for giving good names in the Philippines.
15:09He also explained
15:10that he will participate
15:11to promote the well-being of the Filipinos
15:14as part of the fight
15:15against transnational crimes
15:17such as human trafficking
15:18where some Filipinos
15:20were also victims.
15:25The world and our region
15:26are facing challenging times.
15:28From conflicts in Europe
15:30to the Middle East
15:31to global existential threats
15:33such as climate change
15:34and natural and man-made disasters
15:36to transnational crime
15:38and economic downturns.
15:40All these,
15:41in one way or another,
15:42affect the lives
15:43and livelihoods
15:44of peace-loving
15:45and hardworking people
15:47like yourselves.
15:48So my participation
15:49and that of the Philippines
15:51in the ASEAN meetings
15:53is precisely to find ways
15:54to cooperate with partners
15:56to better meet
15:57the challenges of today
15:58to forge a better future
16:00for our beloved Philippines.
16:03Meanwhile,
16:04aside from the formal opening
16:05of the ASEAN Summit today,
16:07the ASEAN Business and Investment Summit
16:09will also be held
16:10where the President will have the opportunity
16:12to meet with the leaders
16:14and build the Philippines
16:15as an investment destination.
16:17Aside from that,
16:18the President also has an important task
16:21for this day.
16:22Igan?
16:23Ivan, you mentioned earlier
16:24that among the signed agreements,
16:26there is an agreement
16:27on incident prevention
16:29in the South China Sea.
16:30In particular,
16:31the incident prevention
16:32mentioned there
16:33with Vietnam.
16:35Yes, Igan.
16:36If our audience remembers,
16:38in January of 2024,
16:40President Bongbong Marcos
16:41had a state visit
16:42to Vietnam.
16:43That's one of the agreements
16:45they signed
16:46with the leaders of Vietnam.
16:48This is a mechanism
16:49to discuss
16:50and not immediately
16:51bring down
16:52the tensions
16:53in the South China Sea
16:54of the two countries.
16:55If we know,
16:56Vietnam and the Philippines
16:57both have claims
16:58in the South China Sea
16:59just like other countries.
17:00Malaysia is one of them.
17:01Indonesia is also one of them.
17:02These mechanisms
17:03are a way
17:04to avoid
17:05a flood
17:06or any other incident
17:07of violence
17:08such as
17:09such claims
17:10or conflicting claims
17:11in the South China Sea.
17:12The President
17:13will also have
17:14a meeting
17:15with the leaders
17:16of the two countries
17:17to discuss
17:19the situation
17:20in the South China Sea.
17:21The problem, Igan,
17:22is that
17:23we also have
17:24such an agreement in China.
17:25The problem
17:26is the good faith
17:27that the countries
17:28followed
17:29in the agreement.
17:30Now,
17:31President Bongbong Marcos
17:32is in Laos.
17:33Who is the caretaker
17:34of the country?
17:35Before,
17:36it was VP Sara Duterte.
17:37Now?
17:38Igan,
17:39that's right.
17:40It's the first time
17:41that the President
17:42traveled
17:43and was designated
17:44as the caretaker
17:45of the country.
17:47He was designated
17:48as the caretaker
17:49of the government
17:50by VP Sara Duterte.
17:51Before,
17:52it was VP Sara
17:53who was the caretaker.
17:54Now,
17:55it's ES Bersabin,
17:56Justice Secretary Rimulya,
17:58and Agrarian Reform Secretary
18:00Conrado Estrella.
18:02According to
18:03Secretary Cesar Chavez,
18:04the Presidential Communications Office
18:06is like a council
18:07where the three of them
18:08will make decisions.
18:09If ever
18:10there is a decision
18:11that is important
18:12while the President is not here
18:13and he is here
18:14in the Lao PDR.
18:15Thank you very much,
18:16Ivan Myrina,
18:17live from the Lao People's
18:18Democratic Republic.
18:21In the meantime,
18:22the official trailer
18:23for the continuation
18:24of the journey
18:25of Ethan and Joy
18:26in Hello Love Again was released.
18:28Maybe it's not a bad idea
18:29to ask for a second chance.
18:31I'm sorry,
18:32but I don't give second chances.
18:34I'm sorry,
18:35I don't want you back.
18:37Oh, it's not.
18:38Okay.
