00:00On Wednesday, the Department of Agriculture is expecting to declare the Food Security Emergency on rice.
00:07If this is implemented, the National Food Authority will issue a buffer stock of rice to the markets
00:13to lower the price of rice by up to Php 38 per kilo.
00:18J.P. Soriano reported.
00:22June bought 4 kilos of local jasmine rice for her family's one-week celebration.
00:29She bought it for Php 60 per kilo, a price since December.
00:42In some markets in Quezon City, there is no rice that is lower than Php 50 per kilo.
00:48Long grey is Php 50 per kilo.
00:51Sinandomeng is Php 53 per kilo.
00:54Denorado is Php 59 per kilo.
00:56Local jasmine rice is from Php 60 to Php 62,
01:01while imported jasmine rice is Php 65 per kilo.
01:05So, the question is, when will this start?
01:09This is what President Bongbong Marcos said when he declared the Food Security Emergency.
01:14June was informed that if this is implemented,
01:17the National Food Authority can issue a buffer stock of rice
01:23and will add to the market that will lower the price of rice.
01:28According to the Department of Agriculture,
01:30on Monday, they expect to receive the recommendation of the National Price Coordinating Council
01:36for the Food Security Emergency on rice.
01:39The expectation by Wednesday is that our government will take action
01:44and most likely, again, the declaration of the Food Security Emergency.
01:50At the time that the DA declares the National Food Security Emergency,
01:55the NFA will immediately sell rice to all local government units and Kadiwa stores.
02:02When Secretary Kiko declares the rice price emergency,
02:06we will be allowed to release our rice.
02:14These are not aging stocks, these are our regular stocks.
02:17Nationwide, we can release our rice.
02:22But according to the DA, while the council is still discussing
02:25how much NFA can sell their new rice stocks,
02:30they will first follow the current price of 38 pesos per kilo.
02:35But according to the LGU, it depends on how much it will be sold.
02:40For GMA Integrated News, JP Soriano,
02:4424 Hours is on the air.
02:46A woman gave birth to her grandchild after she was holed up.
02:49She was now arrested.
02:51She was held in a hoolicamp inside the house.
02:54Bea Pinlac is on the air.
03:00This 19-year-old woman filed a complaint with the authorities
03:04after she was holed up by a man in NEPA Qmart in Quezon City.
03:09She was charged with 19,000 pesos.
03:12We were walking around inside the Qmart and the man was caught.
03:17We were in a hurry and we got three shots of drugs.
03:22The man was jailed.
03:24He said he was holed up but we got drugs.
03:29Illegal drugs and a gun were found inside the man's holed up.
03:34They were not able to recover the stolen money.
03:38The next day, a man went to the barangay to file a complaint.
03:43His complaint is that he entered their house and took four cellphones.
03:51He took the cellphones,
03:53he went to the side of the barangay where we have a lavatory.
03:58He peeped inside the house.
04:02He entered his house and stole his cellphones and wallet
04:07with ID and 5,900 pesos.
04:13When he returned to the CCTV,
04:15I showed him what I took.
04:17He said this is what he took last night.
04:19He filed a complaint that he was holed up for 19,000 pesos.
04:22He was walking near the man's house.
04:25The woman was not able to enter the man's house
04:29to take the four cellphones.
04:32But later, she saw him walking out of the house.
04:37The woman admitted to the crime.
04:40She explained that she just wanted to recover after losing the money.
04:44Last time, I was holed up.
04:49I didn't know what to do.
04:52My mind was confused.
04:54I just thought of doing something bad.
04:59He went to a mall in Manila to sell the stolen cellphones for 4,000 pesos.
05:06Even though he gave the money to the owner,
05:09he hoped that he could return the stolen items.
05:13He took the money and left the wallet in the taxi.
05:16I have my wallet and my license.
05:19Even if we get the cellphones or not,
05:22we will still file a complaint.
05:24The woman is facing a complaint of theft.
05:27It is also possible that the complainant bought the stolen cellphones
05:32to violate the anti-fencing law.
05:35For GMA Integrated News,
05:37Bea Pinlac was on air for 24 hours.
05:42Four cellphones were recovered and returned to the owner.
05:46According to Marciano Aguad, Jr.,
05:50of Barangay Irodiguez in Quezon City.
05:54Motorists are expected to see a big-time oil price hike next week.
05:59According to Unioil,
06:01the price of a liter of diesel is up to three pesos.
06:07The price of gasoline is up to two pesos per liter.
06:12According to the Oil Industry Management Bureau of the Energy Department,
06:16the United States and the United Kingdom
06:18will impose a new sanction on oil from Russia
06:21in order to reduce their exports
06:23which will increase the price in the world market.
06:26Russia is one of the largest oil producers in the world.
06:30This will be the third time in a row
06:32that a high oil price will rise next week.
06:35It is possible that Jenny Alvarado's employer
06:38filed a complaint of negligence.
06:41She is the OFW who was at home in Kuwait
06:44and was replaced by her co-worker
06:46when she returned to the Philippines.
06:48It is also possible that the deployment ban in Kuwait will be implemented
06:52under the leadership of Von Aquino.
06:58A loving mother who is ready to sacrifice for her children.
07:02This is the memory that Jenny Alvarado left to her children
07:06despite her bitter attachment to Kuwait.
07:09Whenever I send her my achievements in life,
07:14she always reminds me,
07:16congrats that you always have a strong heart.
07:19The smiles she gives us,
07:21she makes us feel that she loves us very much,
07:26her siblings.
07:28After the autopsy yesterday,
07:30Jenny's grandson, Lavinie,
07:32fled to their home in Rodriguez, Rizal.
07:35Jenny's children say that their mother
07:37plans not to return to Kuwait.
07:40She always tells me,
07:42I will always go home to you.
07:46When we are ready,
07:48I will wait for you.
07:51I hope she will go home this February.
07:54But suddenly, this happened.
07:57The story of Jenny's children,
07:59they were able to talk to a former housemate
08:01of Jenny's father's brother
08:03who knows her.
08:05They told her that her mother is being tortured.
08:08Her father's eldest son,
08:11whenever he does something wrong,
08:13he will blame his mother.
08:15It's like our mother is being tortured.
08:18She is locked up in her room,
08:19and she is made to starve.
08:21Whenever their mother returns to the Philippines,
08:23her father holds her salary.
08:26Whenever our mother returns to the Philippines,
08:28her father contracts her
08:30that he will not give her the entire salary.
08:33It's like that.
08:34Because he does not give her the entire salary,
08:37including her 13-month pay until now.
08:39Because of this,
08:40and because of what they saw
08:42in their mother's body,
08:43their belief that
08:45there is a foul play in the death of their mother
08:47became stronger.
08:49They want their mother's father to answer
08:51that he served her for 8 years.
08:54Her father,
08:55because it looks like what happened to our mother
08:57was not suffocating.
08:59And that is what I will defend
09:01and I will fight until the end.
09:04Earlier,
09:05Migrant Worker Secretary Hans Kakdag
09:07was accompanied by Jenny's brother.
09:09I am surprised that our plan to
09:12investigate the lawyer
09:17and our plan to file a claim
09:21was not successful.
09:26In the initial report
09:27that was received by the Department of Migrant Workers,
09:29Jenny died
09:31due to the effect of a coal metal stove
09:33or indoor coal burner
09:34that was ignited because she was cold
09:36in the employer's rest house.
09:38I shared with them
09:40the case of neglect
09:43that we will file against the employer
09:48because she was brought to the rest house
09:53and it was not her regular sleep.
09:57We will just answer to the employer
09:59what was her responsibility.
10:02The DMW is studying again
10:04if the deployment of domestic helpers in Kuwait
10:06should be suspended.
10:08As to whether we should close it
10:10is another thing
10:11and that is what we are investigating now.
10:13What other measures
10:14that we will add
10:16so that we can ensure
10:18the protection of our OFWs.
10:22And if in our investigation
10:24the suspension of deployment will help
10:29we will also do that.
10:32For GMA Integrated News,
10:34Vonn Aquino reporting for 24 Hours.
10:36A senator has changed his name
10:39and increased the responsibility
10:41of the National Economic and Development Authority
10:43or NEDA.
10:44If it is implemented,
10:45it will be called
10:46Department of Economy, Planning and Development
10:49or DEPDEV.
10:51Mary Zubal is on the phone.
10:57When it comes to planning programs
10:59for the development of our economy,
11:01an agency is responsible for that.
11:03The National Economic Development Authority or NEDA.
11:06But because of the agency's responsibility,
11:09its power should be expanded.
11:12Senator Juan Miguel Zubiri advises
11:14to make it a department
11:16or department of government,
11:18a department of economy,
11:20planning and development or DEPDEV.
11:22Its role is strong
11:24in cabinet meetings
11:26and yet they're not a department.
11:28Sometimes, there are government agencies
11:30that don't pay attention
11:32to the findings and solutions of NEDA.
11:36Because it comes as an authority.
11:39Some agencies feel it's only
11:41a recommendatory.
11:42But it's not just a simple change
11:44of its name.
11:45The responsibilities of the new government
11:47will be added
11:48when it comes to building the budget
11:50of the government.
11:51Sometimes, the education fund is lost.
11:54The fund for social services is lost.
11:56The fund for trade and industry
11:59and commerce programs is lost.
12:02So now, under this law,
12:05it's stated here that
12:08DEPDEV will consult with DBM,
12:12Department of Budget and Management,
12:14to make our national budget
12:16so that it's in tune
12:18for our economic development.
12:20The bill has been passed
12:22by the Senate and the House of Representatives.
12:23On Wednesday,
12:25there will be a bicameral conference.
12:27But it will be a paper bicameral
12:29if we consider it.
12:30Because the Senate and the House of Representatives
12:32approved almost the same.
12:34They were able to ratify
12:36the bill on the same day.
12:38And they hope that the President
12:40will sign it on the first week of February.
12:43Hopefully, we can add more jobs
12:45to our countrymen,
12:46investment opportunities,
12:48and of course,
12:49streamlining of government functions.
12:52At the same time,
12:53streamlining of government work
12:55to our countrymen.
