00:00The man, who is a minor in Laguna, hid but the police caught him.
00:08The suspect hid because he wanted to molest him.
00:12John Consulta was able to find him.
00:14Exclusive.
00:22It was not easy for the authorities to find this 26-year-old man
00:27who is facing a rape case.
00:29He changed his hideout after being raped by a 16-year-old victim.
00:36According to the investigation, the two men, who are both members of the Drum and Lyre Band,
00:39were taken home from a vet.
00:41Instead of being taken to his house by the police,
00:44they took him to a vacant house and raped him there.
00:47Sometimes, something happens to the victim and the police,
00:50but the victim is not prone to violence.
00:52But sometimes, the victim went home after being raped.
00:57His family found out about this.
00:59That's why they immediately filed a complaint and filed a demand
01:02and the accused was released on bail.
01:05The suspect, who is currently in prison at Cavinti Police Station in Laguna,
01:07refused to give his consent.
01:11The suspect, who is not prone to violence, is facing a statutory rape complaint.
01:15For JMA Integrated News, John Consulta,
01:18The case is pending for 24 hours.
01:21To fix the different version of the 2025 National Budget of the Senate and House of Representatives,
01:29the Bicameral Conference Committee formed a technical working group
01:34in their first meeting earlier.
01:36Under the agreement of Senate President Chis Escudero,
01:39the President will be given the power of attorney
01:42before the Christmas break of the Congress.
01:45Ma'am Gonzalez was present.
01:51At the beginning of the first meeting of the Bicameral Conference Committee,
01:54the Senators and Congressmen were reminded of this.
01:58Let's keep things practical and straightforward.
02:01We don't need to overcomplicate this.
02:04My only plea is for us, conferees, not to take ourselves too seriously.
02:10If the discussion is too heated,
02:13we may need to take a coffee break to settle our differences.
02:17The committee's goal is to unify the different versions
02:20of the 2025 National Budget of the Senate and House of Representatives.
02:25Some of the possible discussions in the Bicameral Conference Committee
02:29are the reduction of the budget of the Office of the Vice President
02:32and the removal of the assistance in the Post-Angkita Program or ACAP
02:36that was helped by House Speaker Martin Romualdez.
02:39Actually, there are just a few major differences there.
02:43You've heard about ACAP, for example.
02:48Coming from the ACAP, what will be the contentiousness of the committee?
02:52Well, we're on the same page with the other initiatives.
03:00So, for now, let's just wait to see what the differences will be.
03:06Because, of course, the two sides will fight.
03:10Last year, the ACAP fund became an issue.
03:13Some senators said that they didn't know that the congressmen entered it.
03:18So, Senator Bato de la Rosa urged them to give time to review the final version of the budget.
03:24Before we sign the Bicam report,
03:29please give us enough time to read over again
03:34and check for everything, Madam Chair.
03:37Before we sign.
03:38So that we won't look stupid.
03:40Yes, Senator de la Rosa,
03:42this has been the commitment of your Chairman of Finance as well as our Senate President.
03:49A technical working group was formed earlier to fix the differences in the version of the Senate and House.
03:55Senate President Cheese Escudero assured that they will give the President the final budget before the Christmas break of the Congress.
04:03It's long and complicated.
04:04I expect that it will still be on time for the coming week.
04:08Before we adjourn for the Christmas break,
04:11this will be over.
04:12The conference panel will just have to be strong.
04:16For GMA Integrated News,
04:18Maev Gonzales,
04:19for Tutok,
04:2024 Hours.
04:26Good evening, Kapuso!
04:27There's a new P-POP girl in town!
04:32Hi, Blooms!
04:34I'm Binnie Lynn!
04:36Binnie Lynn Mercado!
04:40This is Jennie Lynn Mercado,
04:42who dressed up as a Binnie member in her latest IG post.
04:46Jennie Lynn's get-up shows that from head to toe,
04:49vibes are cherry on top.
04:51Jennie Lynn's birthday surprise to her producer is a gimmick.
04:55Jennie Lynn's ultimate bias,
04:57Binnie Lynn,
04:58has a sample song.
05:02I don't want to rely on beliefs
05:10There's still hope
05:13that my heart will be given
05:19A group of service exporters suggested
05:23that TESDA should have upskills training.
05:26They say it's a way for Filipino workers to be qualified,
05:30especially for the thousands of drivers that are needed in Japan
05:33and several countries in Europe.
05:35And Maki Polido was right.
05:40Rexon has been driving a taxi for 7 years.
05:43But even though he's been driving for 24 hours,
05:45his income is still not enough.
05:47That's why he's looking for opportunities in other countries.
05:50It's so hard, ma'am.
05:51It's expensive to buy.
05:53It's better to do it in other countries.
05:56In an overseas labor market forum,
05:58the Labor Attaché of Japan said
06:00that they will hire more than 24,000 taxi drivers
06:03in the next 5 years.
06:05Almost 4,000 are train drivers.
06:08They receive 58,000 to 65,000 pesos
06:11every month.
06:12But Japan's new requirement
06:14is a Language Proficiency Certificate.
06:17The applicant needs to learn to speak Nihongo.
06:20Workers don't get paid.
06:22Even for language training,
06:24it should be covered by the employer.
06:27Some drivers are also looking for
06:29trucks, buses, and taxis in several countries in Europe,
06:31like Slovenia, Austria, and the Czech Republic.
06:34Their salary ranges from 55,000 to 142,000 pesos.
06:40What they're looking for here
06:42is someone who can speak English.
06:44That's why Rekson said
06:46it's better for TESDA to offer language courses.
06:48I hope it's free training
06:50for kids like me
06:54because there are more opportunities.
06:56Many of the jobs offered
06:58are not qualified.
07:00That's why TESDA needs to offer
07:02upskilling according to the Philippine Association
07:05of Service Exporters.
07:07Automation of machines
07:09that are operated
07:11by drivers
07:13that are not manual.
07:15They're all automatic.
07:17Third,
07:19their bases are longer
07:21than ours.
07:23The Department of Migrant Workers
07:25in TESDA agrees with this.
07:27But DMW Secretary Hans Kakdak said
07:29along with the allocated job opportunities,
07:31they also talked to the hiring countries
07:33about how to pro-protect
07:35our workers.
07:37Yes, there's a demand.
07:39Yes, the Filipino workers are good
07:41but wait,
07:43they should be safe and ethical.
07:45One example,
07:47before you issue a visa,
07:49make sure you go to DMW.
07:51For GMA Integrated News,
07:53Mackie Pulido, 24 Hours.
07:55Kamalek Second Division
07:57disqualified
07:59former Congressman Edgar Erice
08:01in the upcoming
08:032025 elections
08:05because of his statements
08:07against Kamalek
08:09and MIRU.
08:11Erice will appeal
08:13and say that he has nothing to fight for.
08:15Sandra Aguinaldo
08:17has the floor.
08:21In the upcoming resolution
08:23of Kamalek Second Division,
08:25former Congressman Edgar Erice
08:27was disqualified
08:29in running again as a member
08:31of the Second District of Caloocan.
08:33This was the decision of Kamalek Second Division
08:35in the disqualification case
08:37of Raymond Salipot
08:39for violating
08:41Article 22, Section 261
08:43of the Omnibus Election Code
08:45that prohibits
08:47confusion in the election process
08:49or causing confusion
08:51among voters
08:53by spreading wrong
08:55and alarming information.
08:57This includes statements
08:59by Erice to the media
09:01including the statement
09:03that Kamalek and MIRU
09:05have a contract
09:07for the 2025 automated elections.
09:09In April,
09:11Erice filed a petition
09:13to the Supreme Court
09:15asking for Kamalek-MIRU
09:17to lose its visa.
09:19He also filed a corruption complaint
09:21to Ombudsman
09:23against Kamalek Chairman
09:25George Erwin Garcia.
09:27Kamalek Second Division said
09:29that Erice has no evidence
09:31to appeal the decision.
09:33He has no prohibited provision
09:35of the Omnibus Election Code.
09:37I'm not violating
09:39Section 261Z
09:41of the Omnibus Election Code
09:43because the
09:45particular provision pertains
09:47to violations and offenses
09:49committed
09:51during the voting.
09:53The commissioners
09:55are just mad at me
09:57because they are irritated.
09:59The real reason
10:01why they are disqualifying me
10:03is
10:05I think this is
10:07disqualification
10:09because of their irritation
10:11to my persistence.
10:13Erice said that he doesn't know
10:15the person who filed his case.
10:17But he mentioned that
10:19Chairman Garcia was close
10:21to his opponent in the election,
10:23in Caloocan. He didn't mention
10:25who it was but he posted
10:27a picture of Garcia
10:29with incumbent Congresswoman
10:31Mitch Cajayon Uy of the
10:33Second District of Caloocan.
10:35Chairman Garcia was his wife
10:37in marriage.
10:39He was a lawyer when we fought.
10:41Chairman Garcia was a lawyer
10:43in the protest.
10:45Uy explained that he had nothing to do
10:47with Erice's disqualification case.
10:49During the time that he was
10:51an election lawyer,
10:53Attorney George used to be my election lawyer.
10:55My protest
10:57to Erice
10:59was him being my lawyer.
11:01We fought
11:03in a case but it has
11:05nothing to do with
11:07his case right now with Comelec.
11:09Garcia also said
11:11that he has nothing to do with
11:13Comelec's decision in the Second Division.
11:15He also filed an inhibition
11:17that means
11:19he has nothing to do with
11:21Erice's case.
11:23He keeps on connecting with me.
11:25What do I know about the Division?
11:27For GMA Integrated News,
11:29Sandra Aguinaldo, 24 Hours.
11:35My fellow countrymen,
11:37the weather is not bad but
11:39some places in the country
11:41were flooded and rained.
11:45As experienced
11:47by the people of Santa Fraxedes
11:49in the province of Cagayan.
11:51Flooded houses and streets
11:53followed by heavy
11:55rainfall yesterday.
11:57According to the forecast,
11:59it will be like a shear line
12:01that will create thick clouds
12:03due to the warm and cold wind.
12:05The effect may continue
12:07in the eastern section of the Dodolo Zone.
12:09At the same time,
12:11the Intertropical Convergence Zone
12:13or ITCZ will also be flooded in Mindanao.
12:15Meanwhile, there was a strong wind
12:17that reached the central zone
12:19of the Metro Manila.
12:21But if the forecast is clear,
12:23for now,
12:25the cold wind will be felt
12:27every day.
12:29According to the Metro Weather,
12:31Northern Luzon,
12:33Mimaropa, Quezon,
12:35Western Visayas,
12:37Negros Island Region
12:39and almost all of Mindanao
12:41will be flooded.
12:43There is a chance of rain
12:45in some parts of Metro Manila
12:47for the next few days.
12:49Thank you for watching!
