NewsTranscript
00:00According to the owner of the SUV that has a Peke Umanong protocol plate as a senator,
00:05LTO said that the registered vehicle is of the same type.
00:10Let's take a look.
00:15Yes, you can see it. It's moving backwards.
00:17Only a few registered vehicles in the Land Transportation Office or LTO
00:21are of the same model as this SUV
00:23that entered the northbound lane of the EDSA carousel in Makati
00:26while using protocol plate number 7
00:29that he is giving to the senators.
00:31That's what the LTO Executive Director said in the same news earlier this morning.
00:35How many owners do you have in the Philippines?
00:38Initially, we don't have 30, but we're still looking.
00:44But the LTO is not yet sure who the owner of the SUV is,
00:47especially since they confirmed that the plate has a Peke.
00:49There is also no clear conduction sticker.
00:51We don't have a unit identification of the vehicle.
00:58In the video, we saw an orange sticker on the windshield of the driver's side.
01:06We're coordinating with other agencies
01:09to see if they have a video that is clearer
01:14so that we can see the conduction sticker.
01:17The use of protocol plates started
01:19when the Executive Order 287 issued by former President Carlos P. Garcia in 1958
01:25was number 1 for the official vehicle of the President of the country.
01:29Up to 250 plates were issued,
01:32including for governors, mayors, and other local officials.
01:36Over the years, the number of owners using protocol plates has decreased.
01:40Now, only up to number 40 is being issued
01:43based on the Executive Order No. 56 of President Bongbong Marcos.
01:47For GMI Integrated News, I am Rafi Pima, your witness.
01:54Senator Bato Dela Rosa will question
01:56if the Senate will submit to the International Criminal Court
01:59a transcript of the hearing on the War on Drugs.
02:02This is contrary to what Senate President Cheese Escudero said
02:05that the Senate will not ask to certify the transcript as long as there is a reason.
02:09Dela Rosa's gate, which was the former PNP chief during the Duterte administration,
02:13clearly shows the position of Malacanang
02:15that it does not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC.
02:19Giving in to their request is tantamount to recognizing the jurisdiction.
02:25If he submits, I will try to question him.
02:29Why are you submitting to ICC?
02:32In fact, we do not recognize the jurisdiction of ICC.
02:35Escudero refused to comment.
02:38Campo ni Dismest Bambantarlac Mayor Alice Goh
02:41was accused of trashing the complaints of perjury
02:43and making a notary public against her
02:46This is contrary to what she claimed in her counteraffidavit
02:49for the case of Qualified Human Trafficking last August
02:52even though she is already abroad.
02:54Goh came to the DOJ for a preliminary investigation
02:57but refused to give a statement.
02:59But her lawyer insisted
03:01First of all, she is not here.
03:03What is her participation in that notarization?
03:08Not because you ordered it, that is your case, right?
03:13Because what is needed is the act that you possess your notarization.
03:19Goh was still detained in Pasig City Jail Female Dormitory.
03:24Inflation or the price of products and services in the country
03:27increased rapidly this October.
03:29According to the Philippine Statistics Authority,
03:31from 1.9% in September,
03:34the inflation rate increased to 2.3% in October.
03:37One of the main factors is the price of food,
03:41particularly rice.
03:42According to the National Economic and Development Authority or NEDA,
03:45the floods affected the food supply chain
03:49like the Christine Flood.
03:50The national average inflation rate is at 3.3% now
03:55so it is still within the target of the government of 2 to 4%.
03:58For GMA Integrated News,
04:00Mav Gonzales is your witness.
04:04But after listening to the camera,
04:06more than 100 receipts have a 2023 date
04:09but it was used as justification for the spending of 2022 confidential funds
04:14of the Office of the Vice President.
04:16A DepEd official who received an envelope
04:20with money from Vice President Sara Duterte also witnessed the hearing.
04:24The witness is Jonathan Andar.
04:29None of the seven officials of the Office of the Vice President
04:33who were called to the hearing of the camera
04:35regarding the confidential funds of Vice President Sara Duterte
04:39One of them is the Chief of Staff of the Vice President.
04:42Last night, he flew to Los Angeles, California
04:45according to the committee secretary.
04:47He will be called again
04:49and if he does not show up, he will be arrested.
04:52You are the fourth one who did not show up.
04:55This is the fifth invitation.
04:57Do not blame us
04:59that we will issue a contempt order against you.
05:03But the seven OVP officials
05:05sent position papers to the committee
05:07saying that the first submission of the camera was not valid.
05:10It was only yesterday that it was sent to them
05:12even though the submission date was October 17.
05:15The hearing was scheduled for October 28
05:18but it was postponed for today because of the typhoon.
05:22They also stated that the hearing was not conducted
05:24in aid of legislation
05:26or to help in the creation of the law.
05:28They also have the right to refuse it
05:31according to the decision of the Supreme Court
05:33in the case of David Trillanes.
05:35VP Sara's spokesperson
05:37is no longer connected to the vice president.
05:39We decided mutually.
05:42I cannot fulfill the obligations of the contract
05:46as a spokesperson.
05:48I found it very difficult for me
05:50to go on media
05:52and be interviewed on the same matter
05:54because the objectivity is lost
05:56because I'm also part of the hearing
05:59as a resource person.
06:01It is not clear who will speak
06:03on behalf of the vice president.
06:05Especially in the questions of the congressman
06:07regarding more than half a billion pesos
06:09in confidential funds of the Deputy OVP
06:11in 2022 and 2023.
06:13The details of how it was spent are still not known.
06:16Where is the 612.5 million now?
06:20Who spent it?
06:22And for what purpose was it spent?
06:25It was also noticed that there are 158 receipts
06:28with the 2023 contract
06:30that were used as justification
06:32for the expenditure of the 2022 confidential funds.
06:35The answer of the OVP to COA
06:37was that it was just a typo error.
06:39I don't think, Mr. Chair, this was a mistake
06:41that was committed in December 2022.
06:43This was a mistake that was committed
06:45after the fact, after the AOM,
06:47and after the notice of suspension
06:49when they were rushing to comply
06:51with the openings of half of the COA.
06:53It happened 158 times.
06:55Which raises the question,
06:57are these acknowledgement receipts spurious?
06:59Are they false?
07:00They said they have inadvertently contained
07:03clerical or typographical errors
07:06indicating 2023 instead of 2022.
07:10Considering the nature of confidential activities
07:13which are usually conducted discreetly
07:15and completed within a short period of time
07:18and in addition to the lack of attention
07:20to details of personnel
07:22attending to voluminous papers
07:24from several individuals,
07:26some data in the acknowledgement receipts
07:28submitted as proof of transactions
07:30may have been missed.
07:32A DepEd official also faced
07:34envelopes worth P25,000
07:38from VP Sara when she was a DepEd secretary.
07:41How many times?
07:42Nine times.
07:43The first time I received it,
07:45I asked Asicshine,
07:47Ma'am, is it part of the confidential funds?
07:51She said, no, it was just an allowance
07:54from the Vice President.
07:56Asicshine is Sunshine Fajarda
07:58who used to be an Asics in DepEd
07:59and is now in the OVP.
08:01The OVP officials are still trying
08:02to get a statement.
08:04There is no new statement about VP Sara,
08:07but she said before,
08:08there is no misuse of confidential funds.
08:11For GMA Integrated News,
08:13I am Jonathan Andal,
08:14your success.
08:18One week to go
08:19and we can all say hello love again
08:22in the cinemas.
08:23But before that,
08:24let's join the GMA News interviews
08:26of Alden Richards and Catherine Bernardo.
08:29Here, they shared their excitement
08:32and nervousness for the movie.
08:34The two also shared
08:36what they learned from each other
08:38that the friendship became deeper
08:41when they first met
08:42in Hello Love Goodbye in 2019.
08:46One thing that she made me realize is
08:49don't take life too seriously.
08:52I think that's what she made me realize.
08:56You know, it's okay to say no at times.
08:58When you need advice,
09:00you just talk to him.
09:01So you just text him?
09:03Or sometimes,
09:04I don't feel shy to ask him.
09:06I don't need to filter my questions
09:09because I know that he won't offend me.
