00:00If it's Christmas season, more than 100 shops in the Commonwealth Market will be on fire.
00:07This is what Bea Pinla reports.
00:13The fire is raging.
00:15The fire broke out in some parts of the Commonwealth Market in Quezon City at 2 o'clock this morning.
00:21According to the BFP, more than 100 shops were affected by the fire that reached the second alarm.
00:27It took more than 5 hours for the firefighters to put out the fire before it was declared under control until 8 in the morning.
00:34The shops here in the Commonwealth Market in Quezon City are on fire.
00:38They were able to save their shops because they were afraid that the fire would spread to other shops.
00:44Some of them helped to pour water on the fire and put it out immediately.
00:50The hearts of some shops were broken while they were watching their shops on fire.
00:56I don't know what we will do now.
01:00It's very hard to feel that you lost your livelihood.
01:05It's very painful especially when you have a living family.
01:09According to the BFP...
01:10The contents of the market are mostly oil, soy sauce, vinegar and condiments.
01:18That's why it's hard for us to put out the fire.
01:21Another thing is the distance between the hydrants and the rush hour.
01:27The fire is causing a lot of confusion because of the fire.
01:31According to the management of the market, they will contact the affected shops.
01:36The shops in other parts of the Commonwealth Market are back to normal operation.
01:41For GMA Integrated News, Bea Pinlac, 24 Hours.
01:48It's an epidemic where there are a lot of cases of dengue and leptospirosis in Metro Manila.
01:54It's still followed by heavy rains of the next typhoon.
01:57Mark Salazar was there.
02:02The Department of Health informed Metro Manila that dengue has reached the alert threshold in the region
02:10for a lot of people who are sick.
02:12Four LGUs are at the epidemic level, Quezon City, Marikina, Manila and Pateros.
02:18When the alert threshold is reached, it means that it's higher than normal cases.
02:28That's why we need to be careful and implement measures so that the disease won't spread.
02:35From January 1 to October 26, the number of dengue cases in Metro Manila reached 24,232.
02:44It's 34 percent higher than the 18,020 cases that were recorded at the same time in 2023.
02:52Sixty-six people died of dengue this year.
02:56Most of those affected by dengue are boys aged 5 to 7 years old.
03:01Although Quezon City recorded the highest number of cases of dengue, 6,208,
03:07Pateros showed the highest attack rate of the virus.
03:12The attack rate is the percentage of people in a group or place who are sick within a certain period of time.
03:21In simple words, this is the number of people who are sick compared to the total population that could be affected.
03:30This gives an idea of how widespread or how fast a disease spreads in a particular population or place.
03:41DOH reminded us of the 4S strategy to fight dengue,
03:46or the search and destroy,
03:50secure self-protection such as insect repellent lotion,
03:54seek early consultation with a doctor,
03:57and spraying and fogging.
03:59Another case of leptospirosis was reported in Metro Manila.
04:05Five LGUs in Manila are at the epidemic level of leptospirosis.
04:10These are Caloocan, Quezon City, Navotas, Pasay, and Taguig.
04:15From January to October, 2,734 cases of leptospirosis were recorded.
04:22This is 90 percent higher than last year.
04:26260 people are already dying.
04:28That's why the fatality rate of the disease is almost 8 percent.
04:32If a child is the most affected by dengue,
04:35leptospirosis is 55 to 59 years old.
04:39Dengue and lepto cause the need for intensified public health interventions
04:46to stop the increase in the number of cases,
04:49reduce the death rate,
04:51and lower the transmission in the community.
04:55For GMA Integrated News,
04:57Mark Salazar,
04:59for 24 Hours.
05:06Good evening, Kapuso.
05:08I am Kuya Kim,
05:09who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.
05:12There is a jeepney in Leyte,
05:13which is not only carrying traffic,
05:15but also waves.
05:17This jeepney is floating in the sea.
05:21The jeepneys are the king of the road.
05:25But there is one that is floating in the sea.
05:30This is a water jeep made by RG.
05:32They were curious.
05:33A lot of people made videos.
05:34They said it's expensive.
05:35RG made the water jeep 5 months ago.
05:37I bought a junk jeep.
05:39That's the only design I made.
05:42It still has a battery.
05:43It's just like a jeep.
05:44We just put an elixir.
05:46It can accommodate 6 passengers.
05:48But RG said it won't fit.
05:51We just used it for sightseeing.
05:53I didn't rent it.
05:54And to make it more familiar,
05:55he plans to upgrade it.
05:57I will change the engine.
05:59Then I will make it work in the sea.
06:04Kuya Kim,
06:05why are jeepneys the king of the road?
06:08Kuya Kim,
06:09what now?
06:10The jeepneys are not only floating in the sea,
06:13but also waves.
06:15Jeepneys are not only a symbol of our culture,
06:17but also a part of the daily lives of many of our countrymen.
06:21Because massaging is one of the most popular public transportation in the country.
06:25That's why it deserves to be the king of the road.
06:28But before there were jeepneys,
06:30during the time of the Americans,
06:32until after the Second World War,
06:34here in the Philippines,
06:35there were so-called auto-calesas or jeepneys.
06:38These are cheap imported vehicles
06:40that served as share taxis at that time.
06:42But after World War II,
06:44most of the military vehicles of the Americans
06:46were sold to the Filipinos.
06:49They customized them.
06:51They put a metal roof,
06:52a long rear part,
06:54and a design of wood and tile.
06:56These are the jeepneys we know today.
06:59Do you know what's behind the famous jeepney design?
07:09Even before the jeepney modernization program was launched in 2017,
07:12this is how most of the jeepneys we drive look like.
07:16Iconic!
07:17One of the pioneers who remodeled and redesigned the jeepneys of the time
07:22was Saraw Motors,
07:24which was owned by Leonardo Saraw.
07:26Leonardo was not the first to alter the jeepneys left by the Americans at that time,
07:30but he was one who saw the potential for mass transportation.
07:35He lengthened the rear part for more passengers,
07:39and he put a railing at the back and top
07:41so that people can reach the jeepneys and store their belongings.
07:44To find out the trivia behind the viral news,
07:47just post or comment
07:51Always remember,
07:52it's important to know.
07:54I'm Kuya Kim,
07:55and I'll answer you in 24 hours.
07:59Instead of being made for old vehicles,
08:04it became a park in Paranaque.
08:06This is one of the examples of the MMDA
08:10and Pinagata earlier.
08:12This is what Oscar Oida is talking about.
08:18This parking lot in BF Paranaque is for residents only.
08:23But it's been a long time since a forgotten vehicle has appeared.
08:29Most of the time, at first glance,
08:31you know that it doesn't work.
08:35Many of the vehicles parked here
08:37have been here for years.
08:40Just like this vehicle.
08:42As you can see,
08:43there are bundles of flat tires.
08:47There are no windows.
08:49And if you look inside,
08:50the seats are reclined.
08:53It's like you're just sleeping.
08:55Since that part,
08:57it's just that people don't go there
09:01to take advantage.
09:02There are people who park their forgotten vehicles.
09:06Maybe the flood came.
09:09The barangay is now asking for help.
09:11That's why the MMDA's parked vehicles are being moved.
09:16As per the barangay official,
09:18they've repeated it several times.
09:21But they don't want to listen to them.
09:23They asked for coordination.
09:25The local government asked for assistance,
09:27especially the barangay.
09:29Not far away,
09:30in Maysipalangka Street,
09:32the sidewalks were removed
09:34from the shops that have sold their goods.
09:37Their goods were confiscated.
09:41The illegal goods that were parked on President Avenue were seized.
09:45Some big bikes that were parked on the sidewalks
09:48were also seized.
09:50Last year, December,
09:51we talked to all the establishments
09:54telling them that all the sidewalks will be retrieved
09:57either on or over the sidewalks,
09:59the signage.
10:01The MMDA also returned the rows of shops
10:04that were operated only this October.
10:07And they're there again.
10:10That's why this time,
10:12the illegal goods were seized.
10:15The tables, cartons, and others were destroyed.
10:20It's prohibited.
10:22You're obstructing the sidewalk.
10:23You've been warned several times.
10:25You've been operated on several times.
10:26So I think this is too much already.
10:30It's a rush hour this afternoon
10:32when the MMDA reopened the Chino Ross Extension
10:36in Taguig,
10:37where there are still illegal goods parked on the sidewalks
10:42and there are still car washes on the streets.
10:45Even the customer was arrested.
10:48If there's a car wash on the sidewalk,
10:50it's prohibited.
10:51It's prohibited.
10:52That's what they told us.
10:53But we need a license.
10:55I saw a car wash.
10:59I went there first.
11:01At least now,
11:02we can see that the number of illegal parking
11:06and obstructions has decreased.
11:08We guarantee that our people will continue to move around.
11:12For GMA Integrated News,
11:14Oscar Oida,
11:16Nakatutok,
11:1724 hours.
11:1824 hours.
11:23The two-minute Japanese dialogue of David Licauco
11:26in Pulang Araw won an award.
11:28Some of the cast also answered the students' questions
11:31in their campus tour in UP Diliman.
11:34Here's Lars Santiago's answer.
11:39Was it ever difficult to break away from those characters?
11:42Was it ever difficult to love during the war?
11:51The students of UP Diliman College of Mass Communication
11:57asked questions to Dennis Trillo,
11:59Sanya Lopez,
12:00and David Licauco
12:02in the question and answer section
12:04of the Pulang Araw campus tour.
12:07Dennis,
12:08Sanya,
12:09and David
12:10are also behind the historical family drama
12:15such as GMA Network Vice President for Drama,
12:19Cheryl Ching See,
12:21Direct Dominic Zapata,
12:23Head Writer Suzette Doctolero,
12:25and others.
12:27They answered various questions.
12:31They are really interested to hear our stories
12:34about taping,
12:35about the characters.
12:36We are happy to share all of that with them.
12:39I hope they learned a lot.
12:41It's very important for us
12:43that they can also talk
12:45and maybe they have ideas.
12:48When I was in college,
12:49we saw a lot of artists going there
12:52and giving speeches.
12:53Now that we are here,
12:56it's fun.
12:58Dennis,
12:59Sanya,
13:00and David are excited about what will happen
13:02in Pulang Araw
13:03as Yuta,
13:05Derecita,
13:06and Hiroshi.
13:07Little by little,
13:08they will learn Yuta's secrets
13:10and for sure,
13:11they will discover more in the next episodes.
13:14There are plans for Derecita.
13:16We will find out if he will be successful
13:18in his plans.
13:20David,
13:21who is the favorite,
13:22joined a scene as Hiroshi
13:25where he spoke for almost 2 minutes
13:29in Japanese.
13:32It's hard,
13:33but with the help of our Japanese coach,
13:36Ryo,
13:37it's easier.
13:39I think it also comes with the familiarity
13:42of the tonality of Japanese.
13:45I think we got used to it.
13:48And if the scene is difficult,
13:50Dennis will not hesitate to give support.
13:55What we do is to focus on our work
13:57because if you are focused,
14:00you won't distract your co-actors.
14:03If he knows that you know what you're doing,
14:06he will be more confident in your scene.
14:09Barbie Fortezza was not included in the school tour
14:13because she is still in America.
14:16Lore Santiago,
14:18updated on the showbiz happening.
14:23The Christmas spirit in Tarlac is already felt
14:26where more than 60 giant candles were lit
14:30all made of recycled and indigenous materials.
14:33And from Tarlac,
14:35Maris Umali is live.
14:38Maris!
14:42Vicky,
14:43the feels in Tarlac,
14:44the Belen Capital of the Philippines,
14:46is already Christmas.
14:47In the official opening tonight of Belenismo 2024,
14:51where we are returning to the true spirit of Christmas.
15:00Colorful,
15:03magical,
15:05and detailed.
15:08Made of recycled and indigenous materials,
15:11the three main characters in Belen are
15:13Saint Joseph,
15:14Mary,
15:15and Jesus.
15:16That's how each of the 62 Belen
15:18included in the 17th Belenismo this 2024
15:22with the theme
15:23Offering Basket and the Altar.
15:25Sometimes we forget the true message of Christmas
15:29which is the birth of Jesus Christ
15:32which is the message of Belen to all of us.
15:37Offering Basket and the Altar.
15:40Because Jesus Christ is the greatest offering of all time.
15:45Aside from the municipalities,
15:46the schools,
15:48businesses,
15:49churches,
15:50communities,
15:51and private homes are also included
15:52in the five categories of the capital.
15:54But what's more important,
15:55not only for Catholics,
15:58but also for all believers.
16:01The Philippines is a predominantly Catholic country.
16:09We welcome all faiths who want to join.
16:18Through Belenismo,
16:19not only can religion be given importance,
16:21but also the culture of the province
16:23which is the true symbol of Christmas.
16:27Merry Christmas!
16:31Vicky, and now our country is facing
16:33the next tragedy,
16:35the next storm.
16:36What is Belenismo for?
16:38To give inspiration
16:40and also to find
16:42a new hope for Christ this Christmas.
16:46From Tarlac Advance,
16:47Merry Christmas to you, Vicky!
16:50Yay! Merry Christmas, Maris!
16:52Thank you so much, Maris Umali.
16:55The Senate approved the 2025 Budget
16:58of the Office of the Vice President to OVP
17:00by the Camera.
17:01It was approved by the Plenary.
17:03The OVP budget is estimated at Php 2 billion.
17:06The Senate is paying Php 733 million,
17:09just like the version of the Camera.
17:11Some are asking for OVP
17:13for programs that are similar
17:15to what DSWD and DOH are doing.
17:18Senator Grace,
17:19Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Finance,
17:22has repeatedly denied OVP.
17:25But she is still not submitting
17:27a document about the budget.
17:30The Senate's plenary debate
17:32is scheduled for tomorrow
17:34for the entire 2025 National Budget.
17:38It has become difficult
17:39to catch a man in Pasay City
17:42who has a case of molesting
17:44a 12-year-old woman
17:46in Negros Occidental.
17:48And that is what James Agustin is talking about.
17:53The operatives of Batasan Police Station
17:55are still struggling
17:57to catch this man
17:59who was the target of a warrant of arrest
18:01for a case of statutory rape.
18:03The 34-year-old man
18:05just arrived at a bus terminal in Pasay
18:07when he was arrested.
18:09He was armed with a gun
18:11loaded with bullets.
18:12We received information
18:14that this suspect is sighted
18:16somewhere in Bicol.
18:18We monitored him
18:20while he was crossing Manila.
18:22Then we followed him
18:24to a bus terminal in Pasay.
18:27According to the police,
18:29the crime happened last February
18:31in Manaplan, Negros Occidental.
18:33The woman was a 12-year-old victim
18:35of molestation.
18:36In an investigation,
18:37it was found that the gun
18:39was not licensed from the man.
18:41The police still did not know
18:42if it was used on other criminals.
18:44We will have a cross-match
18:47in the areas
18:49where he came from
18:51where there were reported
18:53shooting incidents.
18:55Documents are being prepared
18:57for the return of the warrant
18:59for the case of statutory rape
19:00that the man is facing.
19:02The gun was confiscated
19:03in the face of a complaint
19:05in the Comprehensive Firearms
19:07and Ammunition Regulation Act.
19:09I can't say anything
19:11because I don't know.
