Transcript
00:00The house in Labo, Camarines Norte has been completely demolished.
00:12The land has become soft due to the lack of rain.
00:15The owner of the house is also injured.
00:18The Maharlika Highway also split.
00:22In Tagkawayan, Quezon, three barangays were affected due to the heavy rain.
00:27According to the forecast, it will also be a sheer line of rain in the eastern sections of Central and Southern Luzon.
00:36Four days before the cancellation of all licenses of POGO and IGL or Internet Gambling Licensees in the country,
00:44President Bongbong Marcos was in the news.
00:47In a post, the President said that the entire force of the law will face
00:51those who will attempt to carry out the illegal operation of POGO.
00:56He also said that he will never allow these to happen in the country.
01:00The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission is targeting 100 guerrilla POGOs or smaller POGOs.
01:07The DILG is asking all local chief executives to report to them if there are POGOs that are being set up in their areas.
01:17Despite the non-stopping of the NBI, Vice President Sara Duterte
01:23did not blame the gangs against the President, the First Lady, and the House Speaker.
01:28Reporting by Jon Consulta.
01:33On November 29, the NBI called Vice President Sara Duterte for the first time
01:39to explain that she had already talked to the one who will kill President Ferdinand Marcos,
01:45First Lady Liza Marcos, and Speaker Martin Romualdez if something bad happens to her.
01:50But because Vice President Sara is a no-show, she was fired on December 11.
01:54But earlier, Vice President Sara did not confront her again.
01:58Her lawyer arrived.
02:00The letter said that the lawyers advised Vice President Sara not to attend the invitation of the NBI
02:07and not to pass the sworn affidavit instead of the NBI to the media that Vice President Sara is facing.
02:13I don't think this investigation will be fair
02:18because if you saw the message of the President,
02:28he said, these are criminal acts that I will not let pass.
02:33There is bias there.
02:35So even if they say that there is an investigation,
02:40it's just the beginning for them to decide to file cases.
02:44VP Sara was also asked if she will blame her enemies.
02:48No, ma'am.
02:49It's good that they know that if I die, I will not die in vain.
02:56She insisted that she has nothing to explain other than the use of confidential funds
03:01of the Office of the Vice President and Deputy.
03:04Even though she filed two impeachment complaints against her,
03:08she has nothing to do with the preparation of acknowledgement receipts
03:13that are being questioned by the camera.
03:14If the signatures are real, especially many of them have no record in the PSA.
03:20The use of her confidential funds has something to do with the 2028 elections.
03:26She has no plan to escape.
03:28I do not plan to leave the country or I do not plan to hide if there will be a warrant of arrest,
03:34mainly because my children are here.
03:38The NBI is not yet closing the door for the Vice President.
03:42They will just continue the search for evidence and expect to submit the result of their fact-finding investigation
03:50and recommendation to the DOJ on the first half of January.
03:54We cannot blame him if he thinks that way.
03:57But we also remain clear that the investigation will be fair.
04:05We have nothing to do with it.
04:07The investigation will be impartial.
04:09John Consulta reporting for GMA Integrated News.
04:37The Presidential Communications Office, possibly signed by President Marcos on December 20, said that the budget is biased.
05:07The problem of the local government of La Castellana in Negros Occidental is the adequate supply of food
05:13and other necessities of the thousands of immigrants following the eruption of Volcano Canlaon.
05:18The expansion of mandatory evacuation is also being studied due to the flood.
05:24Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV has a report.
05:31La Castellana Elementary School is one of the 11 evacuation centers in the country
05:35following the eruption of Volcano Canlaon on Monday.
05:38More than 7,000 residents have fled the country while their stay in the evacuation centers is being delayed.
05:44The problem of the LGU is the food and other necessities.
05:48We have no food.
05:50Our situation is very bad.
05:54Our problem is the food.
05:56Of course, the DSWD, the province, has food packs that we can repack.
06:02We don't need to give them vegetables or any food.
06:06So that's the problem.
06:08And of course, mobility and transportation.
06:11It is possible for evacuees to be added if the alert level is raised to 4.
06:14It means that the volcano will explode at any time.
06:17The LGUs should urge the public to prepare.
06:21We should not think that the alert level will be lowered down, but we should prepare as if the alert level will go up.
06:28From the 11-shot volcanic earthquakes on December 9 when Mount Canlaon erupted,
06:33it reached 31 in the past 24 hours, according to PHEVOX.
06:38While the sulfur dioxide emission is more than double and reached 4,000 tons per day.
06:43According to DENR, the affected areas are in 30 towns and villages.
06:48There is a risk of flooding if it rains, so it is being studied to expand the scope of the mandatory evacuation.
06:54The low rainfall in La Carlota City last night brought a foul smell.
06:58I was nervous.
07:00I was afraid that it will be an emergency.
07:06The Department of Tourism suspended the tourism activities in La Castellana, La Carlota City, Bago City,
07:14and Murcia, Negros Occidental, as well as the city in Negros Oriental.
07:18Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV reporting for GMA Integrating News.
07:24Philippine caregivers are in need in Croatia, Slovenia, Denmark, and Singapore.
07:34According to the Department of Migrant Workers or DMW,
07:36Denmark is looking for nurses, nursing assistants, and caregivers.
07:40Banco Central of the Philippines is reminding that it is free to exchange crispy peso bills to banks.
07:48Unfit legal tender banknotes can be exchanged.
07:52They are looking for paper money or polymer that is dirty, has a stain, has a writing or mark,
07:56is scraped, torn, or has a lot of scratches or scratches.
08:00They also insisted on continuing the production of new banknotes and coins,
08:04especially since it is in high demand during Christmas.
08:08Rafi Tima reporting for GMA Integrating News.
08:10For the first time, a Filipino and an Asian participated in the American Reality Singing Competition of The Voice USA.
08:22The grand winner of Season 26, Sofronio Vasquez, will receive $100,000.
08:30Dude, what do you say to all your peeps out there?
08:32What do you say to all your Filipino followers and lovers?
08:35To all the Filipinos out there in America, thank you so much for your support.
08:49Sometimes, Sofronio's talent is neglected in the call of duty of its showtime.
08:56Hey, let's congratulate the so-called alumnus, Sofronio Vasquez!
09:04In The Voice Kids PH, the top 4 finalists will compete in the grand finals next week.

09:20Aubrey Carampeo reporting for GMA Integrated News.
09:26It's already been 14 days since Christmas.
09:28In Pilar Bataan, the municipality and the Flaming Sword Monument were lit up with Christmas lights and decor.
09:35The kids enjoyed playing while the adults relaxed.
09:40The hot air balloon designs in the plaza can be ridden.
09:45The Gaston Park and City Hall in Cagayan de Oros City also sparkled with lights.
09:51That's the symphony of lights or the lighting of all Christmas decorations in the city.
09:57The lights in Freedom Park in Kawit-Kawiti were also very lively because of the Christmas tree, fireworks, and dancing lights.
10:07The Cagua Volcano in Cagayan is a literal peak adventure where you can trek to the top of the volcano.
10:13Let's check the report of Oscar Oida.
10:20The volcano is active and the fire mountains in the north of the Philippines are considered.
10:26But instead of being scary, it's also a place to relax.
10:31The volcano is active and the fire mountains in the north of the Philippines are considered.
10:34But instead of being scary, it's also a place to relax.
10:36The Cagua Volcano in Gunzaga, Cagayan is also an attraction.
10:40This sulfuric crater is the end goal of those who climb the mountain.
10:46Feel the hot heat of the volcano.
10:49I've been wanting to do that for a long time.
10:55It's peaceful in Tuk-Tuk but before you can reach it, you'll have to endure the hardship.
11:00But it's an exciting trail that crosses forests and rivers within 6 to 8 hours.
11:06The trail is already established.
11:08There were sightings of, if I'm not mistaken, monkeys and such.
11:12But in my experience, I've only seen birds.
11:17We've seen birds.
11:19There are also tour guides to make sure it's safe.
11:23You can go camping around the mountain.
11:26It's perfect for geology enthusiasts.
11:29Just check that your body is in good condition.
11:33Bring enough water, food, and if possible, bring protective gear and mask.
11:40The Cagua Volcano is also considered sacred by locals.
11:44You need to study it.
11:46We need to respect the mountain.
11:48We need to listen to the tourism office and our tour guides.
11:51Enjoy the trail and make memories.
