00:00We received a 32-year-old girl, but she still does not have one of the most important documents, the birth certificate.
00:12She is having a hard time getting it now because her entire family is not registered for childbirth.
00:19Your Kapuso Action Man has found a solution for this.
00:2232-year-old Sian has a problem.
00:29Within more than three decades, she did not have an important document of identification, her birth certificate.
00:37We were not registered by our parents. I don't know the reason why.
00:44She tried to get a delayed birth registration from the local civil registry.
00:51But...
00:52The lack of supporting documents, such as the birth certificate of my parents,
00:58because they really don't have a record.
01:01And I don't wonder if we don't have a record because they don't have one either.
01:07The question is, will she be able to get a birth certificate since her entire family does not have a birth certificate?
01:14I also don't know where to get it.
01:18Your Kapuso Action Man contacted the Philippine Statistics Authority.
01:21According to the agency, the case of Sian's family is included in their Birth Registration Assistance Project or BRAP,
01:30especially with the 3.7 million Filipinos who do not yet have a birth certificate in the country based on the 2020 Census of Population and Housing.
01:41The process will go through a thorough investigation before the other requirements that are included in the Circular Memorandum 2024-17 and 17-A are waived.
01:52We recognize that we have fellow Filipinos. It is really hard to produce their supporting documents.
02:00Our PSA in Bicol, in our regional office or in our province, can facilitate the out-of-town process of delayed registration.
02:13Sian is very thankful that her family's delayed birth registration is now rolling.
02:23We will investigate this case.
02:25For your questions, please send them to the Kapuso Action Man Facebook page.
02:29For any complaints, abuse or mistrust, you can contact your Kapuso Action Man.
02:36The Chief of Staff of Vice President Sara Duterte wrote to the Commission on Audit.
02:44The Commission on Audit did not comply with the request of the Chamber to submit its audit report on the confidential funds of the OVP.
02:53The OVP and the DepEd did not comply with the two acknowledgment receipts submitted by Marisol Abduraman.
03:05Vice President Sara Duterte is still no-show in listening to the House Committee on Good Government and Accountability
03:11that is investigating how the Confidential and Intelligence Fund was spent.
03:17Attorney Zulaica Lopez, the Chief of Staff of Vice President Duterte, was the one who visited the House today.
03:24But according to her, she is just the Executive Director of the Social Economic Projects of the Vice President
03:30and she has no knowledge about the use, disbursement and liquidation of confidential funds.
03:35I am purely handling, as I mentioned, operational concerns.
03:41There are areas, for example, that I am not privy to, one of which is the matter of confidential expenses.
03:53Although I would wish to answer really respectfully as regards the matter of the confidential expenses,
03:59it is something that I have not really been privy to from the very beginning.
04:06It came out in the hearing that Lopez wrote to the Commission on Audit
04:09to tell it not to follow the order of the Camera that submitted its audit report on the confidential funds of the OVP.
04:17She said that Vice President Sara Duterte knows about it.
04:36That's why we requested that since the audit is not yet completed,
04:42it is not right to give such documents first.
05:05When an ongoing investigation is happening.
05:09We requested a statement regarding this matter.
05:12After the committee doubted the acknowledgment receipts signed by a Mayor Gris Piatos,
05:18it was noticed that two other acknowledgment receipts were submitted by the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education.
05:25As proof that the money paid was received first.
05:30Both were signed by a Coco Villamin, but the payment was different.
05:34On the left side, with black ink, that's from the OVP.
05:39On the other side, it's from DepEd.
05:41Can you please read the name on DepEd?
05:44It's the same, Mr. Chair.
05:46It's the same, right?
05:47Yes, Mr. Chair.
05:48It's very obvious, Mr. Chair, that not only Mayor Gris Piatos,
05:52what we saw was questionable.
05:55We also see that there are acknowledgment receipts, Mr. Chair,
06:00with the same names,
06:02with different dates,
06:05with different signatures, Mr. Chair.
06:10Vice President Sara Duterte did not respond to the hearing today.
06:14She previously said that she was just wasting her time,
06:17because she was not asked when she last came here.
06:20The Vice President previously said that there was no misuse of her confidential fund.
06:25Four OVP officials were not present at the hearing.
06:28Assistant Chief of Staff and Bids and Awards Committee Chair Lemuel Ortonio,
06:32Specialist Bursing Officer Gina Acosta,
06:35DepEd Assistant Secretary Sanchez Cherry Fajarda,
06:38and SDO Edward Fajarda.
06:40All of them are on official travel, so they will not be present at the hearing.
06:45The lawmakers said that they are planning to avoid attending the hearing.
06:50If you do not attend the committee hearing of the Congress,
06:55you can be charged with a crime,
07:00because this is a law that the visit here is mandatory for public officials.
07:09But the committee said that they did not ask the reason for this visit,
07:13because she was not under oath.
07:15They also invited the Vice President several times.
07:19For the GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abdurrahman,

07:27Cash, millions of pesos worth.
07:30That is what was found when the vaults were opened
07:33that were obtained from the discussed BPO company,
07:36Central One Bataan, in Bagac, Bataan.
07:40Sarima Refran is on trial.
07:43Under the court's order,
07:4512 money vaults were opened from the discussed BPO company,
07:49Central One Bataan, in Bagac, Bataan.
07:52The first one was tried by the court, but they were not able to open it.
07:55That is why hydraulic cutters and other equipment
07:58of the Bureau of Fire Protection were used to open these vaults.
08:01The money was full of plastic.
08:04It was found in one vault.
08:05There were other currencies.
08:07There were also documents obtained.
08:10The BPO did not give a statement,
08:12but they helped the authorities
08:15and witnessed the opening of the vaults.
08:17Two vaults were the first to be opened by the BPO,
08:21which contained more than 30 million pesos.
08:24The vaults were witnessed by the CIDG,
08:27Amlak, Kinatawa ng Barangay, and Central One Bataan.
08:31According to the Anti-Money Laundering Council and the CIDG,
08:34the contents of the two vaults are worth 12 million pesos.
08:37The inventory of the CIDG continues
08:40on the contents of one of the vaults
08:43here in Central One Bataan.
08:45Aside from the money being counted,
08:47there were also documents obtained by the authorities.
08:51The CIDG, Amlak, Kinatawa ng Barangay, and Central One Bataan witnessed this.
08:59This is the money.
09:01These are operations.
09:03It's a big company employing 1,600 employees.
09:07So, this money is used for operations.
09:11Again, we are here to cooperate with the authorities.
09:14For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Rafra.
09:17Coming to you in 24 hours.

10:36Many have lost their homes and they are appealing for help.
10:40The situation of those who are there in the live performance of Joseph Moro.
10:46Joseph.
10:49Vicky, we are here now in the town of Pandan.
10:51This is one of the towns in the northern part of the province of Katanduanes.
10:57And there is no light for now.
10:59And our fellow countrymen here are still waiting for help.
11:07In the town of San Andres, near Virac, the tip of the super typhoon in the province is unrecognizable.
11:12The houses here in my barangay are full of bags with sand so that it won't fly.
11:20To the north of Katanduanes, we saw some landslides.
11:23Near Caramoran, many posts of electricity fell.
11:27The gym made of steel in the barangay of Daryaw was not forgiven.
11:31The barangay is asking for help to rebuild it.

11:42In the barangay of Baybay, Caramoran, residents are waiting for help to come to us.
11:48This is what was left by Pipito here in the barangay of Baybay.
11:53Almost nothing is left in their houses.
11:56What they need now are construction materials, iron, wood, and of course food.
12:03So almost everything here, because this is next to the sea,
12:07nothing is left in their houses and they need help.
12:13In the town of Pandan, the houses that were recovered are also being used for repairs.
12:18There is still no electricity in the area and they are also asking for help from the government.

12:38Thank you very much, Joseph Morong.
12:43Kapuso, the Northeast Monsoon or Amihan is continuing,
12:47but because it is just the beginning, the effects will only be felt in certain places.
12:53In the extreme northern Luzon, it is still hot,
12:56but it is expected that it will be felt in other parts of Luzon in the coming weeks.
13:02Aside from the cold Amihan, the Easter Lees or the hot and windy winds are also coming.
13:08Because of the cold and hot winds, a shear line is being formed.

13:44so there will still be storms and thunderstorms.
13:47Meanwhile, according to the forecast, there is no storm that is expected to affect the country this week.
13:52But it is possible that in the middle of next week,
13:56there will be a new bad weather, and the southern Luzon of Visayas will have a chance to hit.
14:04There is still a chance for it to change, so stay tuned for the updates.
14:11The province of Aurora was also submerged in a state of calamity
14:15due to the impact of the Super Typhoon Pepito.
14:18The impact of that and other typhoons,
14:22left billions of pesos in infrastructure and agriculture.
14:27This is Bernadette Reyes.
14:34The heavy rain and wind brought by the Super Typhoon Pepito experienced in Dipakulaw, Aurora,
14:43left a deep scar on the lives and homes of the residents.

14:52while the trees were completely destroyed.
14:54Some houses were completely destroyed.
14:58Some motorists were stranded for almost three days
15:01because there was a road that was not accessible due to fallen trees and landslides.
15:09In some towns that were hit by the typhoon, it was difficult to recover.
15:12Because of this, the State of Calamity was declared throughout Aurora
15:16to help the residents in the recovery and rehabilitation of the entire province.
15:22The State of Calamity was also declared in the town of Tumawini in Isabela.
15:27Meanwhile, some farmers in the town of San Mateo
15:31were able to harvest rice for their crops.
15:37The sun was also high in Lalo, Cagayan,
15:40but the rain was still not stopping.
15:43This is also the situation in Tuguegarao,
15:46so it was difficult for some motorists to pass through the roads.
15:52In Katanduanes, where the typhoon Piquito first hit,
15:55not all schools were saved,
15:57such as Lumabaw Elementary School in Hagupit ng Bagyo.
