00:00State of the Nation
00:16Suddenly, a big Christmas decor was burned before the lights of the decorations in Dumanjog, Cebu Plaza.
00:23In the investigation of the fire department, it is possible that the fire started from sparks in the welding of the decorations
00:29that fell on other pieces of styrofoam and curtains.
00:33No one was injured or injured.
00:35The lighting ceremony also continued.
00:39Before tonight, the customs of the Chavna Warehouse in Bulacan closed
00:44where there are bags of imported rice but smuggled.
00:49Katrina Son has a report.
00:54More than half a billion pesos.
00:57That is the value of thousands of bags of imported rice that were received by the Bureau of Customs
01:03in the Chavna Inspection Warehouse tonight in Bukawai, Bulacan.
01:07Most of the rice came from Thailand, Myanmar, Pakistan and Vietnam.
01:14Customs suspected that they were selling smuggled rice.
01:18They are also investigating if they are mixing imported and local rice and selling it expensively.
01:25That is why our farmers are here.
01:28We have conducted surveillance.
01:30Under the directive of our President, anti-smuggling operations against agricultural smuggling were stopped
01:36because of the law of new economic sabotage.
01:40No one faced the owners of the warehouses.
01:43The only ones who were caught were the shopkeepers.
01:47Customs asked for a permit with a proof of payment of duties and taxes from the Department of Agriculture.
01:55But they were not shown, so the warehouses were closed.
01:59It should be on hand.
02:01It should be shown immediately.
02:02Our visitors are just reasoning that the offices are closed.
02:09They have not shown anything yet.
02:11That is why they are in jail now.
02:13The owners of the rice warehouses are being given 15 days here in Bukawai, Bulacan for inspection
02:20to submit the necessary documents to prove that their rice was not smuggled.
02:27If they do not submit it, their rice warehouses will be completely closed.
02:35Katrina Son reporting for Jimmy Integrated News.
02:40A bar in Alaminos, Pangasinan was raided by sexual exploitation.
02:4610 women were injured, 7 of them were minors.
02:50One was injured with a baby.
02:53C.J. Torrida of GMA Regional TV reports.
02:59We are from the NBI and DSWD.
03:03When the NBI, City Social Welfare and Development and other authorities raided this bar in Alaminos, Pangasinan,
03:12they saw some women and customers with a child.
03:18Why is there a child here? Whose child is that?
03:21The bar was attended by women who work as guest relations officers or GROs.
03:29They are giving sex service to customers for P1,500 to P1,700.
03:3610 women were raped, victims of sexual exploitation.
03:417 of them were minors, based on their dental aging examination.
03:46There are women from Bulacan, Cavite, Manila.
03:50There are also women from Lingayen, Pangasinan.
03:53Usually, there is an economic financial need.
03:57They were brought to the Provincial Social Welfare and Development in Lingayen for counseling and social protection.
04:03Five people were arrested subject to the operation.
04:06The owner of the bar, three cashiers and one waiter.
04:10Their defense is that they don't know that these are minors because they presented documents that they are of age.
04:18They were detained by the NBI while the court is waiting for their case.
04:24Jay Torrida of GMA Regional TV is reporting for GMA Integrated News.
04:31The DFA itself has confirmed that Mary Jane Veloso is returning to the Philippines on Wednesday.
04:37Our country has been imprisoned for almost 15 years.
04:40She is about to be released in Indonesia.
04:42Reporting by Joseph Moro.
04:45Thank you very much.
04:50Mary Jane Veloso is happy and happy.
04:52As soon as she arrived in Yogyakarta, she was sent to a detention facility in Jakarta, Indonesia, where she is now.
04:58DFA Undersecretary Edde Vega confirmed the statement of the Acting Deputy for Immigration and Corrections Coordination of Indonesia
05:07that Veloso was ordered to fly back to the Philippines on Wednesday, December 18.
05:12She will be sentenced for almost 15 years of imprisonment and death row in Indonesia after being found in a trunk of an April 2010 car with more than two kilos of heroin.
05:22Administration Aquino and Marcos identified Mary Jane's case.
05:26Until the new president of Indonesia is released, their prisoners are not allowed to leave the country.
05:31Here, President Marcos requested that Mary Jane's case be included in the review.
05:35Last month, the president said that Mary Jane will go home.
05:39She was released on the basis of the agreement signed by Indonesia and the Philippines on December 6.
05:44Now, the National Union of People's Lawyers said that the fate of Mary Jane is in the Philippines.
05:49Even if the case is legal in Indonesia, because the cost of the physical here has been transferred, the political option is in the Philippines.
05:58The Justice Department said that she will go straight to the Correctional Institute for Women to be imprisoned.
06:03That's why the Veloso family asked for an executive clemency.
06:06The Veloso family hopes that at the end of their 15 years of struggle, Mary Jane will be reunited with her family.
06:16We kissed, we prepared her favorite food, Adobong Baboy.
06:24I can't speak Tagalog anymore.
06:27That's why when we talked, she wanted to speak Tagalog at first, but later she said something else.
06:33She will remember that. She will change her words.
06:39If there's anyone who wants to reunite with Mary Jane, these are her children who have been separated from their mother for one year and six years.
06:46I will hug her tight. I hope that before Christmas, my mother will be released.
06:53I'm happy during Christmas, but I'm not happy when I'm pregnant.
06:57Joseph Morong reporting for GMA Integrated News.

08:22No one was hurt, but almost nothing was saved.
08:25Many people lost their homes in the fire that broke out at 11 a.m.
08:31It's Christmas and we don't have a house and we don't have money.
08:36It's a pity. Where can we go?
08:39When this house was hit in Barangay Paltok, Quezon City,
08:46there were also shots heard.

10:41Six people fainted.
10:45The night worship service was held in Iloilo City.
10:49San Pedro Cathedral in Davao City was also full. That's why the devotees held the worship service outside the church.

12:01It's the day before Christmas, which is a time for children.
12:06What are the ideal gifts aside from toys?
12:09Find out in the report of Katrina Son.
12:14This Christmas, what are the gifts that children want to receive?
12:19Toys. Rockets.
12:22Mommy Maricar is planning to give toys to her child.
12:25She's so happy. If she gets toys, she will really thank you.
12:32But for other children, toys are not what they want to receive.
12:36Books to read.
12:38Shoes.
12:39Clothes, blankets, stickers, water bottles, etc. are also typical gifts.
12:45Books, art materials, or musical instruments can also be used to enhance the creativity of children.
12:51If it's not a material thing, why not a ticket to a museum, aquarium, or zoo?
12:57Or they can enroll in sports, dance, or music class.
13:01Mommy Mary Joy Sarmiento, instead of toys, she will make a headband for her children.
13:07If a mother and her child are still bonding with handicrafts,
13:12it won't be easily damaged and used up.
13:15It won't be easily damaged because it's expensive to buy.
13:20According to an expert, non-toy gifts have a lot of benefits.
13:25It gives meaning.
13:27Because sometimes our children learn about values and character formation,
13:34which are very important if they want to develop themselves.
13:38The value of sharing is also developed in children.
13:42Being grateful or being thankful.
13:44And service or being ready to serve.
13:47It's still balanced.
13:49It's not just toys, but at the same time,
13:52it can be an action that creates memories and moments that they treasure
14:00without bonding with the family.

17:28The water that comes down from up there
17:30is different.
17:32It needs to be preserved.
17:34Especially if it's in an area
17:37full of cliffs.
17:39The rocks here
17:41have a different shape.
