00:00Welcome back to our show!

00:16Less than a week before Christmas,

00:18some trips to Bicol are already fully booked.

00:21Some even went home early.

00:23Calvaryo is the one that some motorists and travelers experienced

00:26because of the heavy traffic in Camarines Sur.

00:29Let's hear from James Agustin.

00:34There are already many fully booked air-conditioned buses to Bicol

00:37at this terminal in Cobau, Quezon City.

00:40For example, to Camarines Norte,

00:42which is already fully booked from today until December 30.

00:46There are also many trips to Legazpi,

00:48from tomorrow until December 29.

00:50There are already many, sir,

00:51because we opened a reservation on November 15.

00:56That's why there are already many people who reserved.

00:58Those who don't have a reservation,

00:59they can ride first-come-first-served in an ordinary bus only.

01:03It is expected that the trip will be longer

01:05because only one lane is used in the Andaya Highway in Camarines Sur,

01:09which is affected by heavy rain.

01:11The traffic is slow there.

01:14It has a big effect, sir,

01:15because the trip takes longer there.

01:19Instead of making the trip faster,

01:21it takes longer because there is too much traffic.

01:24Sir, there is one-way,

01:26and there is a road where there is no ground beneath,

01:31which is affected by heavy rain.

01:36Robert and his family were born early in the bus terminal.

01:39They will celebrate Christmas in Naga soon.

01:42We are avoiding many people

01:46because we are celebrating Christmas.

01:48We will be together there,

01:50especially during Christmas.

01:52Are you excited for Christmas?

01:53Yes, sir.

01:54Ms. Eden arrived at the bus terminal from Camarines Norte.

01:59She insisted on a one-week vacation.

02:01She was the first to celebrate Christmas with her children

02:04because she still has a job here in Metro Manila.

02:07The trip is tight.

02:09There are too many passengers.

02:13My daughter-in-law gave birth,

02:15so I went home.

02:16At this bus terminal,

02:18passengers are expected to arrive tomorrow until the weekend.

02:21They added more trips to Bulacan and Nueva Ecija.

02:25Marifeka's OFW will arrive in the country on December 14

02:29from Saudi Arabia.

02:30She will celebrate Christmas in Nueva Ecija

02:33with her entire family

02:35after three years.

02:37I'm excited.

02:40Of course,

02:41I left my children when they were still young.

02:44Now, they are grown-ups

02:47and there is a traffic jam

02:49so they can arrive early.

02:52James Agustin is reporting for JMA Integrated News.

03:00Dear listeners,

03:01Humina is a low-pressure area

03:03during the previous typhoon in the Caribbean.

03:05Last night,

03:06the LPA forecasted to reach 245 kilometers

03:09in Surigao City.

03:11Despite that,

03:12LPAs in Visayas and Mindanao will continue to rain.

03:15The Khezon and Bicol regions will be affected

03:19as the rain falls in the deep parts of Luzon

03:22and Metro Manila.

03:24This Thursday,

03:25intense rains will be experienced

03:29in Sorsogon,

03:30Northern Samar,

03:32Eastern Samar,

03:33Samar,

03:34Biliran,

03:35Leyte,

03:36Southern Leyte,

03:37Dinagat Islands,

03:38and Surigao del Norte.

03:40Residents are being warned

03:42against flooding or landslides.

03:44Expect strong rains in Khezon,

03:48Bicol,

03:50Central Visayas,

03:52and Mindanao.

03:53The minimum temperature in Baguio City

03:56fell to 15 degrees Celsius today

04:00while 25.1 degrees Celsius here in Khezon City.

04:06Some areas in Khezon were flooded

04:08due to the continuous rain.

04:10Aside from flooding,

04:11residents also have a problem with thick puddles.

04:14Residents called the local government

04:16to solve the problem

04:18by always flooding.

04:20In Timona,

04:21MDRRMO is monitoring the rivers

04:23that are about to overflow

04:25and possibly flood.

04:27According to the government,

04:28it is Shirline that is flooding the province.

04:36The Bureau of Corrections will study

04:38if it is possible to include

04:40more than 14 years of imprisonment

04:42of Mary Jane Veloso in Indonesia

04:44by computing her Good Conduct Time Allowance

04:47or GCTA.

04:48Under the GCTA,

04:50the length of imprisonment

04:52of a PDOV-EDL can be reduced

04:55if it has a good record.

04:57This is also one of the reasons

04:59for giving parole or release

05:01to a PDL

05:02that already served its minimum sentence.

05:05Aside from parole,

05:07another way to release Veloso

05:09according to the Department of Justice

05:11is the Executive Clemency

05:13that only the President can give.

05:16According to Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin,

05:18there is no decision yet

05:20regarding this issue

05:21but they are already studying it.

05:24Veloso is currently in the Correctional Institution for Women

05:27where she will remain for two months

05:30before being transferred to the Maximum Compound.

05:35In other news,

05:36a body of a man was found

05:39in the river in Antipolo City.

05:41According to the mother of the victim,

05:42she was drinking with her co-workers

05:45before she passed away.

05:47EJ Gomez reports.

05:50Some residents noticed

05:52a strange thing

05:54in the morning of December 10

05:56in the river in Sitio Sagipin,

05:58Barangay de la Paz, Antipolo City.

06:00They went to the barangay

06:02and immediately responded.

06:04I saw people

06:06staring at the man.

06:09I think it was just a mannequin.

06:12In the video taken by one of the residents,

06:15a man was seen pulling a mannequin.

06:18It's a person.

06:20It's a person.

06:23It's a person not a mannequin.

06:25It's a person.

06:27It's a person.

06:29A man's cold body

06:30passed by the residents of Barangay de la Paz.

06:33We didn't see any injuries

06:36or stab wounds.

06:38We didn't see any deformed body parts.

06:42The victim, Melvin Restre,

06:44was identified as the victim.

06:46Melvin Restre, a 26-year-old construction worker, was found dead.

06:50According to the victim's mother, her son was last seen in the morning of December 8.

06:55She said she said goodbye and that she will drink with her co-workers.

06:59He didn't come back. I thought he was in the barracks.

07:05He was found dead in the river.

07:12His face was unrecognizable.

07:14But he was wearing a police uniform.

07:17That's all I know.

07:19He was also found dead on his feet.

07:23He added,

07:25He didn't fight.

07:27He didn't shout.

07:29I called him.

07:34He surrendered what he did to him.

07:39No matter what happened.

07:41Authorities are still investigating the incident.

07:44They are also backtracking the local CCTVs

07:47to find out the possible cause of the victim's death.

07:52EJ Gomez, reporting for GMA Integrated News.

08:00The overall champion is the Philippine jet ski racer Anton Ignacio

08:04in the World Grand Prix No. 1 Water Jet World Series 2024.

08:08He is also in the Expert Runabout 1,100 Stock category.

08:12Anton won three series of competitions in Poland, America, and Thailand.

08:18His silver medal was the latest in the three rounds held in Thailand this week.

08:23Congratulations, Anton, and good job!

08:28Some of the cars that were involved in the riot were 20 young men from Sampaloc, Manila.

08:33Some of them were from Parao in Simbang Gabi.

08:37Let's hear from Jomar Apresto.

08:43You'd think that these young men were just playing

08:46in the area of Lackson Avenue in Sampaloc, Manila.

08:49But suddenly, a Molotov cocktail exploded on one of them

08:53and on the other.

08:55According to the barangay,

08:57there were 20 young men from the area involved in the riot.

09:01The riot gang war is our assessment on them.

09:05There were 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 young men.

09:08Some of them were from Simbang Gabi.

09:10Some of the cars were hit by rocks.

09:13Some of the parents of the young men asked the barangay to help them.

09:17But this parent said that his son was already in jail

09:22and that they will not pay for the damage done to the car of our barangay.

09:29The senior citizen, Mr. Albert Dao,

09:31often cleans the debris left by the rioters.

09:50According to the barangay,

09:51there were policemen and their men who were guarding the area.

09:54But the young men were just playing when there were no guards.

09:58Meanwhile, in Manila Police District,

10:00they immediately responded to the news of the incident.

10:11Some of the young men involved in the riot

10:14were turned over to the Manila Department of Social Welfare.

10:17While others were returned to their parents.

10:20According to the law,

10:22minors cannot file a complaint.

10:24Their parents are the ones who can face the consequences.

10:28Under the Manila City Ordinance No. 8243,

10:31or the Anti-Child Endangerment Act,

10:33parents can be jailed for up to 6 months

10:37depending on the age of their children.

10:40There is a fine of Php 2,000 up to Php 5,000.

10:43Let's not wait for something bad to happen to your children.

10:49Or better yet,

10:50if that happens to you,

10:52we will file a complaint against you.

15:18as well as the Reparation of Pagubayat

15:20to the Children of Victims of Extrajudicial Killings,

15:23are also being discussed in the House.

15:25Here is my report.

15:30Like the complaint filed in the International Criminal Court,

15:33crimes against humanity

15:35were recommended by former President Rodrigo Duterte,

15:38Senator Bong Go, Senator Bato de la Rosa, and others.

15:41This is included in the 43-page report

15:44of the House Quad Committee

15:46on Illegal Drugs and Illegal Pogo Operations in the country

15:49of the previous Administration.

16:15In the case of the Drug War,

16:50for the personalities involved

16:52in the Illegal Pogo Operation,

16:54including former Mayor Alice Guo

16:56and former Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque.

16:59This is a defining moment for this Congress, Mr. Speaker.

17:03It is an opportunity to uphold the rule of law,

17:06protect our nation's sovereignty,

17:08and deliver justice to those who have been wronged.

17:23Monetary reparation between P250,000 to P500,000

17:29as well as a non-monetary reparation

17:33will be granted to victims and their families

17:36to be determined by the Extra Judicial Killing Claims Board

17:41proposed under the bill.

18:07He is ready to face the claims.

18:09This is one of the barriers between the Dutertes

18:11and their allies.

18:13He has great trust in our courts

18:15and he will still uphold justice.

18:18We are still trying to get the money

18:20of the former President Duterte

18:21and we are still looking for other possible issues.

18:24Raffy Tima reporting for GMA Integrated News.

18:28Davao City First District Representative Paulo Duterte

18:32was also included in the House Squad Committee

18:35due to his involvement in drug smuggling.

18:38Congressman Duterte replied

18:40that he is open to a fair investigation

18:43because he is not hiding anything.

18:45However, any investigation should be based

18:48on solid evidence

18:50and not on questionable testimonies

18:53like the former Customs Officer Jimmy Guban.

18:56In the Quadcom hearing on August 16,

18:59Guban said that Congressman Duterte

19:02is one of the real owners

19:04of the 6.8 billion peso shabu shipment

19:07that was in Bat in 2018.

19:09Congressman Duterte filed a perjury complaint

19:12against Guban online.

19:15GMA Integrated News is also trying

19:17to get the statement of another personality

19:20that is included in the Quadcom recommendation.

19:27For those who are planning to make Leche Flan

19:30at Iba Pangpang Himanga in Noche Buena,

19:32the budget for eggs is now ready.

19:34For now, the price will be low

19:37because the supply is still enough

19:39like some stores in Marikina Public Market.

19:42But as Christmas approaches,

19:44the price of eggs is also expected to rise

19:47according to the Philippine Egg Board Association.

19:50In Marikina Market,

19:51each piece of extra small egg is 7 pesos,

19:55while 11 pesos is the biggest or the jumbo

19:59210 to 285 pesos per tray

20:04depending on the size of the egg.

20:06In other stores in Metro Manila,

20:08you can buy a peewee egg for 6 pesos and 50 centavos

20:12up to 8 pesos per piece.

20:149 to 10 pesos per piece is the jumbo size.

20:18Brown eggs are more expensive.

20:217 to 13 pesos per piece

20:25depending on medium, large, or extra large.

20:30Let's update on the traffic situation in Metro Manila

20:33six days before Christmas.

20:35Let's talk to the Director for Traffic Enforcement Group

20:37of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority,

20:40Atty. Vic Nunez.

20:42Welcome to Balitang Hali, Atty.

20:45Yes, good afternoon, Sir Rafi,

20:47and good afternoon to all of your viewers.

20:50Last weekend before Christmas,

20:52how is the traffic on the main roads here in Metro Manila?

20:56Yes, Sir Rafi, we're expecting

20:59this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday

21:02that the volume of vehicles will increase.

21:07And this is the time when many people

21:12will return to their provinces.

21:14The piers, provincial bus terminals,

21:19and even airports are already full.

21:21So, we're expecting that.

21:24And the next few days,

21:27mostly, there will be Christmas parties

21:30in different places.

21:32In your observation,

21:33at what time does the traffic

21:35or the whole day become heavy?

21:38Actually, there are light hours,

21:41especially in the morning.

21:42But the peak of traffic

21:44wherein the volume of vehicles is really high,

21:48it would start at 4 p.m.

21:50until 9 to 10 p.m.,

21:53especially in the major toro fairs

21:55along EDSA, C5, Commonwealth.

21:57Are the live lanes still effective?

22:00Yes, it's very efficient

22:03because every day,

22:04we're clearing those alternate roads

22:07so that our major roads won't become heavy.

22:15That's why our special operations group

22:17operate here every morning until afternoon

22:21to encourage our motorists

22:23and our fellow countrymen

22:25to use these alternate roads,

22:29the live lanes,

22:30because most of these live lanes

22:32are leading to big malls

22:34all over Manila,

22:36from Pasay, Paranaque, up to Quezon City.

22:39So, if they know where the live lanes are,

22:43we're clearing them every day,

22:46it will help them more.

22:48Why is the suspension of the Expanded Number Coding Scheme

22:51only for certain days?

22:53Well, as a matter of policy,

22:55MMDA would lift the UVVRP

22:59on regular holidays or special holidays.

23:03December 24, 25, December 30, and 31,

23:08including January 1,

23:11we chose those

23:13because these dates are declared holidays.

23:17And it's hard if we lift that,

23:20that it's not a holiday

23:22because we're also expecting December 22, 23, and 26,

23:26to go back to the provinces

23:28or to send back to the provinces.

23:30It will add to the congestion of traffic

23:34if we still lift the Number Coding Scheme

23:40on these days.

23:41That's why the chairman, Chairman Don Artes,

23:43he's our policeman,

23:45he's the one who declared by our agency

23:48that the coding is lifted on these five days.

23:51Yes. Are there other ways you're looking at

23:53to help with the expansion of the traffic

23:56during these times?

23:57Are you encouraging commuting

23:59to our countrymen,

24:00especially those who only pass through major thoroughfares?

24:03Yes, we can see that many are already

24:06lining up for the bus carousel along EDSA,

24:10MRT, and LRT

24:11because that's still the fastest.

24:15That's why we can see

24:17that those who are lining up for the bus carousel

24:22are waiting in line

24:24because that's still the fastest way

24:29for our public to ride.

24:34So we're encouraging them

24:35instead of using private vehicles,

24:38let's use LRT, MRT, and EDSA bus carousel.

24:44But it's really coming out,

24:46the TSTs first in the coming four days

24:47because it's expected that the traffic will increase.

24:51Yes, Sir Rafi.

24:52That's why we're appealing

24:53that if you can't afford to bring your car,

24:57please plan your travels ahead of time

25:01and apologize

25:03and make sure that your cars,

25:05the vehicles that you're using are roadworthy

25:08because the cars that are being destroyed

25:10are still in the way of our roads.

25:15We have a lot of incidents

25:17that are being monitored

25:18by a lot of stored vehicles

25:19in the major thoroughfares

25:21that also leads to added traffic jam and congestion.

25:25So make sure that all your vehicles,

25:27especially those that are going out of the provinces,

25:31are in good condition.

25:33Thank you very much for your time in Balitang Hali.

25:37Thank you very much, Sir Rafi.

25:39Good morning.

25:41This is Atty. Vic Nunez of MMDA.

25:43Breaking news in Visayas and Mindanao

25:46brought to you by GMA Regional TV.

25:48The typhoon Kirbin has passed,

25:49but it can be felt in some parts of Mindanao.

25:52Sarah, how is the situation there?

25:56Rafi, even though it has passed

25:58as a low-pressure area,

25:59it still rained in some places here in Davao Region

26:02during the previous typhoon Kirbin.

26:04In Panabodabo del Norte,

26:06there was heavy rain on the National Highway last night.

26:10It slowed down the traffic.

26:12Some residents also tried to cross the river.

26:15There is no entrance to all schools

26:18and government offices in Lungsol.

26:20Landslides caused the rain in Barangay Tuburan

26:24in Mawab Davao de Oro.

26:25It also hit the motorists in Aberia.

26:28The road was temporarily closed

26:30for clearing operations.

26:34More than a week after the typhoon struck,

26:3737 evacuees in La Castellana, Negros Occidental,

26:40were affected by the typhoon

26:42because it hit Kinaing, Menudo.

26:45Some of them needed to be taken to the hospital

26:48and dextrose was injected.

26:50The mayor confirmed the incident

26:52and said that the rain came from the donation

26:54of a private group.

26:56Authorities are still investigating the incident

26:59to prevent the LGU from calling for help

27:03to the donation management team

27:06to monitor the donations.

27:10President Bombo Marcos' signature

27:12on the National Budget for 2025

27:14will not be confirmed tomorrow.

27:16According to Malacanang,

27:17there are parts of the budget that were vetoed

27:20or blocked by the President.

27:22This is Mav Gonzalez.

27:27President Bombo Marcos' members

27:29of his Cabinet,

27:30including the Executive Secretary,

27:32secretaries of the Budget, Finance, Public Works,

27:35and National Economic Development Authority,

27:38the PAKSA,

27:39supported the National Budget for 2025.

27:42The budget was supposed to be signed on Friday,

27:44but Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin said

27:47that it will not continue

27:48because it needs time for a thorough review.

27:51It is not yet clear when the budget will be signed,

27:54but Bersamin confirmed that

27:56there are parts that will be vetoed.

27:58The leaders of the House and Senate

28:00have nothing against it

28:01because it is part of the process.

28:03Under Article 6, Section 27 of the 1987 Constitution,

28:07the President has the power to veto

28:10any law passed by the Congress.

28:12Under the Constitution,

28:14the President can veto

28:16particular items or just a part of the budget.

28:18As of now,

28:20in the passed budget

28:21in the Bicameral Conference Committee,

28:23almost Php 215 billion was added

28:26to the budget of the DPWH

28:28compared to what was included

28:29in the National Expenditure Program

28:31or the proposed budget

28:32submitted by the Executive.

28:34More than Php 17 billion was added to the Camera

28:37and more than Php 1 billion was added to the Senate.

28:40Also, more than Php 11 billion was deducted

28:43from the budget of the DepEd

28:44and the removal of the PhilHealth subsidy.

28:47The Php 26 billion budget

28:50for the Ayuda para sa Kapos Ang Kita Program

28:52or ACAP,

28:53was removed from the Senate version

28:55but was returned to the Bicam.

28:57According to the law expert,

28:58Prof. Dan Gatmaitan,

29:00removing a particular item

29:02is what the President can do.

29:04He cannot transfer it

29:05to another part of the budget

29:06that was removed from other programs.

29:08For example,

29:09if the President vetoes the fund for ACAP,

29:11the fund that is included here

29:13cannot be spent

29:14even in other programs.

29:15The money will remain in the National Treasury.

29:18If the PhilHealth budget is vetoed

29:20and the subsidy is zero,

29:21the original allocation of Php 74 billion

29:23will not be returned.

29:25Congress has to respond.

29:27I don't know.

29:28Next time or next year,

29:30they will be more careful

29:31or there will be a need for special appropriations.

29:36Eventually,

29:37if it looks like money is needed

29:39for certain things,

29:40there will be emergency mechanisms.

29:43Under the 1987 Constitution,

29:45the President's veto

29:47can still be overrided

29:48or the Congress' visa will be revoked.

29:50But this has not happened in history

29:52according to Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel.

29:55Congress can still insist

29:58that it still needs to be a law.

30:02It can still insist

30:03by two-thirds vote of Congress per House

30:08voting separately

30:09to override the veto.

30:13There is none

30:14because a super majority,

30:17a special majority is needed.

30:19More than just simple majority.

30:21Of course,

30:22the President's allies

30:24are in the House and Senate.

30:27So it should not happen.

30:29The President can also reconvene

30:31the Bicameral Conference Committee

30:33to fix the budget.

30:34What he needs to do

30:35is prevail upon Congress

30:38to withdraw

30:41the bill they gave to the President

30:45so that they can fix it.

30:47That's what I think

30:48is the most viable solution here

30:54without making the President

30:57veto the entire budget.

30:59The Senate President said

31:00the fund can be increased

31:02after the budget is passed.

31:04It's in the special provisions.

31:06The Speaker, the Senate President,

31:07the President, the Chief Justice,

31:09all the heads of agencies,

31:10the constitutional agencies

31:11have that power.

31:13Because they have fiscal autonomy.

31:15Mav Gonzalez reporting

31:17for GMA Integrated News.

32:10The victim was taken to the hospital

32:12and he recovered.

32:13The police are now investigating

32:15the motive for the crime.

32:17CCTV cameras are also being used

32:19in other establishments

32:21to track down the suspects.

32:25Some of these images

32:26were uploaded on social media

32:28related to a traffic accident

32:29in Lapu-Lapu, Cebu.

32:31Based on the investigation,

32:32the old suspect wanted to overtake

32:36but he was not given

32:37by another driver.

32:39The young suspect saw

32:41the confrontation

32:42between his father

32:43and a motorist.

32:44The motorist threatened

32:45his father

32:46and forced him

32:47to get out of the vehicle.

32:49The father of the jeepney driver

32:51had a knife

32:52and barbecue sticks.

32:54The father surrendered

32:55to the police

32:56but was temporarily released

32:58after no other case.

36:00The two programs

36:01will be broadcast

36:03in January 2025.

36:07Before the new year,

36:08President Bongbong Marcos

36:09may sign

36:10the proposed national budget

36:12for 2025.

36:14Let's talk in detail

36:15on the spot

36:16of Ian Cruz.

36:18Ian?

36:21Yes, Rafi.

36:22President Bongbong Marcos

36:23will not return

36:25the 2025 national budget

36:27to the Congress.

36:29The President said

36:30the work of the Congress

36:32is done

36:33and there is no procedure

36:34to return the budget

36:36to them

36:37after the bicameral

36:38conference committee

36:39of the Senate and the House.

36:41That's why they are the executives

36:42who will review

36:43the proposed

36:44General Appropriations Bill

36:45of the Congress.

36:46There are a lot of changes

36:47from the budget request

36:48of different departments.

36:50We will know

36:51if the insertions

36:52in the budget

36:53are necessary.

36:55Instead,

36:56the President said

36:57that he will veto

36:58the General Appropriations Bill

37:00to regain

37:01the control

37:02in the spending program

37:03of the government

37:04in the next year.

37:05The President

37:06has not yet detailed this

37:07because item by item,

37:09line by line,

37:10they are looking at

37:11to know

37:12which are the priorities.

37:14But they have already seen

37:15project proposals

37:16that have no appropriate

37:17program of work,

37:18no documentation,

37:19and it is not clear

37:20where the funds will go.

37:22That's why this is what

37:23needs to be clarified.

37:24It should be that

37:25tomorrow,

37:26the national budget

37:27will be approved

37:28but they will not be able

37:29to finish reviewing.

37:30But the President assured

37:31that the 2025 national budget

37:33is included

37:34in the important projects.

37:36The President also asked

37:37about the appearance

37:38of Speaker Martin Romualdez

37:39who will spend

37:40a year

37:41to pay

37:42the PhilHealth premium.

37:43The President said

37:44that this is ideal

37:45but he pointed out

37:46to those

37:47who are commenting

37:48about the absence

37:49of PhilHealth subsidy

37:50in the budget,

37:51to study it well.

37:52His guarantee is

37:53whether PhilHealth

37:54has a subsidy

37:55or not,

37:56the service

37:57of PhilHealth

37:58will not be reduced.

37:59Here is his statement.

38:03Let me be very clear.

38:07I really wish

38:09those who are commenting

38:11about the PhilHealth subsidy

38:13to study it

38:14in more detail.

38:16This is my guarantee.

38:17My guarantee is very simple.

38:19Even if there is a subsidy,

38:21even if there is no subsidy,

38:22even if there is a contribution,

38:24all of these issues,

38:25the service

38:26of PhilHealth

38:27will not be reduced.

38:33The Quad Committee of the Camera

38:35is charged

38:36by our President,

38:37Rodrigo Duterte,

38:38Senator Ronald de la Rosa,

38:39Senator Bongo,

38:40and others

38:41of Crimes Against Humanity

38:42related to war on drugs

38:43in the past administration.

38:44This includes the President

38:45but the Department of Justice

38:47will assess this.

38:48The DOJ will look

38:49at these,

38:50especially

38:51what cases

38:52will be investigated,

38:53how evidence

38:54will be brought back

38:55to the case build-up.

38:56They will look

38:57if the direction

38:58of the recommendation

38:59of the Committee of the Camera

39:00is correct.

39:01As for the requested

39:02executive clemency

39:03of Mary Jane Veloso,

39:04the President said

39:05that it is still far away.

39:06She said that

39:07she still needs to study

39:08and leave it

39:09for the judgment

39:10of the legal experts

39:11to know

39:12if the clemency

39:13can be approved.

39:14There is no condition

39:15given by Indonesia

39:16to transfer to the Philippines

39:17the custody

39:18of the victim,

39:19Veloso,

39:20but everything

39:21is still

39:22in the preliminary stage.

39:23President Bongbong Marcos

39:24was at the Villamor Air Base

39:25earlier

39:26for the change of command

39:27and retirement ceremony
