00:00At the same time as the celebration of the Christmas of the whole world,
00:03the Vatican City officially started the Jubilee Year 2025, led by Pope Francis.
00:09Here's the news of Bea Pinlac.
00:16Santa Claus is coming to town!
00:18Santa has left the Arctic Circle to bring gifts to naughty and nice kids.
00:25Before leaving, Santa brought all the residents of Santa Claus Village to Rovaniemi in Northern Finland.
00:36A blue Santa Claus is swimming with the penguins in an aquarium in Tokyo, Japan.
00:42That Christmas pandar is a hit among visitors.
00:45Through a card play, Santa taught the kids a lesson about penguins,
00:51a game that was answered by the kids.
00:56The Christmas Mass was held on the eve of the reopening of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France.
01:01The cathedral was reopened on December 8,
01:04after more than five years of closure,
01:07to undergo rehabilitation after it was burned down in 2019.
01:12During the Christmas Mass,
01:14the priest declared that the cathedral symbolizes faith, unity, and hope.
01:21On the eve of Christmas, Pope Francis led the Jubilee Year 2025
01:28in the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City.
01:32It symbolizes hope and redemption.
01:35The theme of the Jubilee this year is hope in addressing the problems of the world,
01:40such as hunger, poverty, and war.
01:43Those who pass through the Holy Door are said to be forgiven for their sins.
01:49More than 32 million pilgrims are expected to attend the Jubilee,
01:53which will last until January 6, 2026.
01:57Bea Pinlac reports for GMA Integrated News.
02:02We will visit the Correctional Institution for Women of the Veloso family
02:06to celebrate Christmas with Mary Jane.
02:08Let's hear from Joseph Moro.
02:14Christmas is for the family,
02:16and the Veloso family is feeling it this month.
02:19The Bureau of Corrections in Bucor allowed us to visit Mary Jane Veloso,
02:24and her parents are excited.
02:26T-shirts and other gifts were prepared for Mary Jane.
02:30Even for Ms. Celia, she prepared something for her.
02:34It's the 14th Christmas without Mary Jane's family
02:37since she was imprisoned in Indonesia in 2010.
02:40We thought we were going to die as husband and wife,
02:43that we wouldn't be able to see Mary Jane,
02:46that we wouldn't be able to be with her.
02:48But God gave us a gift.
02:51We will really go home in the afternoon.
02:54I think I won't be able to see my daughter,
02:59especially when our home is near.
03:04They will also distribute some of the foods requested by Mary Jane.
03:08Tinumis, sinigang na baboy, espagueti, and salad.
03:16Puto!
03:18More than 20 siblings and other relatives will visit Mary Jane,
03:22including her two children who are leaving Nueva Ecija.
03:26But Bucor's regulations are strict
03:28on the visit of prohibited pictures or videos
03:30in the reception area of the Correctional Institution for Women in Mandaluyong.
03:34They were allowed to bring gifts,
03:36but not real gifts.
03:38The state still remembers Mary Jane as a person deprived of liberty.
03:42But in front of the celebration,
03:44the Veloso family has a Christmas wish for the President.
03:47I feel sorry for my daughter
03:49because she has been imprisoned for a long time.
03:53Please give her to us so that we can be with her.
03:58According to Mary Jane's lawyers,
04:00there is no legal obstacle for Mary Jane to receive an executive clemency
04:05after the Philippines and Indonesia signed a transfer agreement
04:09wherein after the sentence of life imprisonment is lowered,
04:14the prison will be filled here in the Philippines.
04:17I read very carefully the statement of the Coordinating Ministry.
04:22It says that the responsibility for the rehabilitation, remission, or clemency
04:31is now passed on to the Philippine government,
04:35and they will respect that.
04:37On the part of the BBM,
04:40it can demonstrate decisiveness.
04:43It can also demonstrate a head of one's country's empathy,
04:50mercy, sense of justice.
04:54Malacanang has not yet announced
04:56if Mary Jane will receive a clemency.
04:58It is the tradition of the Bureau of Corrections
05:00to release persons deprived of liberty during Christmas,
05:04such as those who have been sentenced
05:06due to the Good Conduct Time Allowance.
05:09Joseph Moro reporting for GMA Integrated News.
05:14A CCTV camera was captured in Compostela, Davao de Oro.
05:16The woman was driving a car.
05:18She was carrying a bag with cash
05:20and was escorted by a security guard.
05:23But the woman was not yet able to drive.
05:25A man called for help and the security guard shot the woman.
05:28In fear, the woman entered the car.
05:31The man and the security guard filled the car
05:33until the security guard was able to shoot her.
05:35Another man came forward,
05:37aimed at the woman and shot the bag.
05:40The security guard also shot her.
05:42The suspect ran away on a motorcycle.
05:45The security guard was dead on the spot
05:47after he was shot in the chest.
05:50According to the investigation,
05:52the woman in the video was a banker.
05:55She picked up money from her client.
05:58The money was worth more than Php 3 million.
06:03The police believe that there were more than two suspects.
06:06The investigation continues.
06:12The Armed Forces of the Philippines
06:14plans to buy a missile platform as a national defense.
06:17One of the possible purchases
06:19is the American Missile System
06:21that is being sold by China.
06:23Chino Gaston reports.
06:29Aside from additional ships,
06:31airplanes, unmanned aerial vehicles, and radar systems,
06:35the AFP wants to buy a missile system
06:38to defend the country's exclusive economic zone.
06:41We are proposing to our headquarters
06:43for the possible inclusion in the modernization program
06:47of the medium-range capability missile platform
06:52that will support our contribution
06:56to the implementation of the CUT-C.
06:59The defense should have started long ago.
07:02According to the source of GMA Integrated News
07:04of the Department of National Defense,
07:06the purchase of missiles will surely be included
07:09in the AFP modernization program.
07:11The only problem is what kind of missile system to buy
07:15because China will surely buy any missile system
07:19that can reach the coastline of southern China.
07:22One of the possible platforms being considered
07:25is the Typhoon Missile Launcher System of the U.S.
07:28that has been used several times by the U.S. and the Philippines
07:31and is still deployed in Northern Luzon.
07:34In a statement, China announced
07:36that it is possible to launch the Anilay Arms Race
07:39if the Philippines buys the Typhoon Missile System of the U.S.
07:43The need of the region is peace and prosperity,
07:47not chaos or armistice.
07:49Again, they are urging the Philippines
07:51to fulfill the promise to remove the Typhoon Missile System
07:55and correct the mistake.
07:57In a statement, Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. said
08:01that the deployment and purchase of missiles
08:03is the right of the Philippines for its own security and defense
08:07and cannot be opposed by any country.
08:10If China really wants to ease the tension in the region,
08:14it should stop the threats,
08:16coercion, demand for information,
08:18and remove their ships from the EEZ of the Philippines.
08:23Chino Gaston reporting for GMA Integrated News.
08:32This Christmas, I am thankful to my family
08:35that I was with last night.
08:37The one I truly love and the one who truly loves me.
08:40How about you, Ra?
08:41I am thankful to Marie.
08:45And of course, to my blessings that I received throughout the year.
08:48I'm drooling.
08:49We also asked the netizens,
08:51what do you want to be thankful for this Christmas?
08:53Yes, and what Girlie Francisco is thankful for
08:56is their safety because they were not swept away
08:58despite the rain.
09:00Sarah Jane Pupanes is thankful to God
09:02for her father's continuous fight
09:04for a dialysis patient to recover.
09:07Jake Aranzado is thankful
09:10that he will graduate in just one semester.
09:14Good job!
09:15Even though no one is prepared,
09:17Jervil Santos is very thankful
09:18that his family was able to complete this Christmas.
