00:00In Navotas, a suspect who was caught with more than P200,000 worth of shabu was put behind bars.
00:08Marisol Abdurrahman, X-News.
00:16When the signal was received from the alleged buyer,
00:21the operatives of the Drug Enforcement Unit of the Northern Police District immediately ran.
00:27The subject of the buy-bust operation was arrested.
00:36Their transaction was only P5,000.
00:41But the suspect was caught with P35,000 worth of shabu worth P200,000.
00:48He still had something to bring.
00:49And he still had something to sell.
00:53The sale happened on the side of the road when the suspect's mode was still on.
00:58The operation was fast.
01:00Once the money arrived, then the item arrived, that's it.
01:05The transaction was faster at night based on his statement.
01:09In the past, the suspect was caught in 2016 also because of drugs.
01:13Based on the information, he can give 50 grams to 100 grams of illegal drugs.
01:19The suspect just cried when we talked to him earlier.
01:22Why are you worried about drugs?
01:24I will explain it to the court.
01:27He will be fined with a complaint of violation of RA 9165 or Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.
01:33For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abdurrahman, 24 Hours.
01:41The more than P6 trillion P2025 National Budget has already been passed.
01:46But it seems that the funds of the programs included in this budget have not been discussed yet.
01:51There are things that were removed and the President is asking for them to be returned.
01:54But are they allowed?
01:56The Budget Department will explain it to the court.
01:59In an interview with Ivan Mayrina.
02:01Mayrina.
02:05DILG Secretary John Vic Rimula said that President Marcos is returning the budget of the PNP,
02:11the funds removed for the information technology project of the PNP,
02:15while the additional P500 million intelligence fund was removed under the 2025 General Appropriations Act.
02:22As instructed by the President.
02:24The Department of Budget and Management said that what happened in the 2025 budget is not new.
02:30The original budget was not followed by the President in the version approved by the lawmakers.
02:36And even if the National Budget has already been passed, it is normal for it to be remediated.
02:40Just like what the President and his departments are doing.
02:44As long as it is in accordance with the provisions.
02:46But it's not a simple and complicated process.
02:49What you will look at first is, is it savings?
02:54So our savings has a definition.
02:56It's either abandonment, it will not be done,
03:00or the original project was completed, which is the intel.
03:07It was completed and the other one is because of efficiency.
03:12It is in accordance with the provisions of the Act as to how far the authority will recommend and approve the changes in the budget,
03:19whether the Secretary of the Department, the Secretary of the DBM or the President.
03:24The DBM is not yet saying where the budget for the IT project of the PNP will be collected
03:29and what will happen to the 500 million intelligence fund.
03:32Aside from the savings, the contingent fund can also collect funds for the priority project.
03:38It's P13 billion for 2025.
03:41Lastly, a project can also be given priority to be funded under the Unprogrammed Appropriations.
03:48This means that the fund will go through a particular process,
03:51but it depends on the savings or a new collection such as a loan.
03:56In the 2025 budget, for example,
03:58the unprogrammed appropriations was included as part of the fund for the assistance under the four-piece program of the DSWD.
04:04P41.8 billion is what the government is asking for.
04:08The number one is that there should be excess revenue.
04:12So only then, if there is a certification of the treasury that has excess revenue,
04:18then that's the only time that we can look at the unprogrammed appropriations as the source.
04:24For GMA Integrated News, Ivan Mayrina for 24 Hours.
04:33Aside from their upcoming film,
04:35Geneline Mercado and Dennis Trillo will also return to the TV screen.
04:41Up for a challenge with excitement because of the new genre that they will do after almost a decade.
04:49Let's talk to Nelson Canlas.
04:56The love and attention to TikTok of the couple Geneline Mercado and Dennis Trillo.
05:03They will bring to the TV, a new year, a new project, and a new genre for their comeback.
05:152015 is the last drama series of GenDen that has a fateful husband.
05:21And now, they will do an action drama series.
05:27The two are inspired to do their first action team-up.
05:31And they will make sure that they will push the limits of each other.
05:37It's good because it's different, it's new.
05:39It's our first time doing that kind of genre.
05:42Even the two of us were excited when we found out that it's different from the projects we did before.
05:49We really need to prepare ourselves, we need to get our bodies ready
05:53because we have a lot of scenes that require stunts and fights.
06:01It's been a long time since the drama king and the ultimate star got together
06:06because they waited for Dylan, who is at the right age for them.
06:12Our baby, at least for now, we are more confident to leave him
06:17because we already know that he can take care of himself.
06:24I said that I will not work until the point that he can speak and can speak.
06:32So that I know what happened on his day.
06:35Because now, he really knows.
06:37The action scenes are now guaranteed, especially when they are with Roy Vinson,
06:43Altantay, Zoren Legaspi, and Allen Dizon.
06:49They can also be with no less than Miss Novavdilya
06:52and the beauty queen actress, Marina Benipayo.
06:56Sam Pinto and Joros Kamboa will return
07:00and there are many new actors who will give color to the project.
07:06Is this a drama?
07:07What will happen to my comedy now?
07:10No, it's more like action.
07:13Action? I can do that.
07:16Director said that I have a double.
07:19I don't want to have a double.
07:22It's more fun to play drama, action, and comedy
07:27because nowadays, people are looking for ways to balance the genres
07:33and how to deliver and tell the story.
07:36So, that's what's exciting.
07:38Nelson Canlas, updated on Shoebiz Happening.
07:42It's not just scammers who buy text blast machines
07:47like Nakupisca from a Malaysian national,
07:50but also some politicians.
07:52They will use it for campaigning and black propaganda.
07:56That's why DICT will voluntarily give it up.
08:00June Veneracion will play.
08:04The Malaysian National has been arrested several times
08:08for selling or controlling a prohibited text blast machine.
08:14This is the device that can send thousands of text messages
08:18that do not pass through the cell site.
08:20The Department of Information and Communications Technology
08:23said that the Malaysian National did not just sell scammers,
08:27but also political candidates.
08:30We caught the supplier.
08:32It's just a matter of time.
08:34We will know who sold it.
08:38When we find out, we will catch you.
08:43If you voluntarily surrender those equipment,
08:47you will not be charged.
08:50The Department of Information and Communications Technology is monitoring.
08:54The illegal sale of text blast machines is increasing
08:57when the election is near.
08:59Because it is being used by candidates.
09:02The latest version obtained from the Malaysian National
09:05is worth Php 600,000.
09:09Unlike the previous version,
09:11this is smaller and can be put inside a backpack.
09:15Not only in campaigning,
09:17it can be used in favor of a candidate,
09:19but also in black propaganda.
09:21The illegal use is being investigated on how to enter the country.
09:25I need to warn our candidates,
09:27because we will be monitoring.
09:29So when we monitor text blasters in operation,
09:35we will definitely confiscate that,
09:38file appropriate criminal charges,
09:41and perhaps file whatever charges we should do,
09:46even in a comelec.
09:47In the face of the expected spread of text blasts,
09:50DICT has an advice for voters.
09:53If you receive a text blast
09:55from certain candidates,
09:57don't vote for it.
09:59DICT also said,
10:00the text blast machines are being used by scammers
10:04after the scammers used in the scamming operation were closed.
10:09For GMA Integrated News,
10:11Jun Veneracion, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
10:18In our time,
10:19it is possible that the floods in some parts of the country,
10:22that according to the forecast,
10:24is one of the effects of the flood.
10:26Based on the weather forecast,
10:28there is a chance of rain tomorrow in Palawan, Mindoro Provinces,
10:30Quezon, and Pico Region.
10:32It is also possible that there will be rain in some areas of Metro Manila,
10:35especially tomorrow afternoon.
10:37There are also scattered rains in Visayas,
10:39and a large part of Mindarao.
10:41It is still possible that there will be heavy to intense rain,
10:43so there is still a chance of landslide or flood.
10:46Just like what happened in Tibunco, Davao City,
10:48where there was a heavy to intense rain,
10:51while the road was being crossed,
10:53the river was flooded because of the flood.
10:55The rains in Mindarao are because of the Easter Leaks.
10:58Aside from the hot weather,
11:00there are also thunderstorms.
11:02The cold weather in Luzon and Shire Line continues.
11:06The cold weather in Shire Line and Easter Leaks
11:09is one of the effects of the La Niña Condition,
11:11according to the forecast.
11:13It was discussed in a climate forum today.
11:15Based on the latest forecast,
11:17there is almost a 60% chance
11:19that the La Niña Condition will continue until April.
11:22Although the current La Niña Condition is short-lived,
11:26it is still expected that there will be more rains
11:29in some parts of the country and it is possible that there will be floods.
11:32The La Niña Condition is the drop in the temperature
11:34or the coldness of the ocean
11:36in the central and eastern portion of the Pacific Ocean.
11:38It is also the opposite effect in the Philippines
11:40or in the Western Pacific,
11:42where the ocean gets hot
11:45and it causes floods.
11:53Every story that we heard
11:56in the Give-A-Gift Alay sa Batang Pinoy Christmas Project
11:59reflects the determination of the students
12:02in the midst of the calamity.
12:04They are working hard to finish their studies.
12:09And because of our help,
12:11we are able to give them the gift of Christmas.
12:20In the past, we used to dance
12:23while the children were watching
12:25as they danced to the rhythm of the wind
12:30in the excitement of the taste of the León and Marsa storms.
12:35It was amazing.
12:36We were so excited that we wanted to eat
12:39and watch our little lesson in its entirety.
12:44This is the poem written by Teacher Roseline
12:48about the bitter experience of their school
12:51in Gonzaga, Cagayan
12:53because of the impact of the Marsa storm.
12:57The windows and windows were flooded with water and wind.
13:03In Lemery, Batangas,
13:05the remains of the Christine storm are still strong.
13:09The lands in their homes and schools
13:13are still covered by landslides and floods.
13:17All our lives, our elementary school
13:20has been affected by this.
13:22Our power is all different.
13:26Despite these trials,
13:28the students' dreams and aspirations were not in vain.
13:33To ease the trauma of the children affected by the storm,
13:37we gave gifts to 50,000 kindergarten
13:42to grade 6 students in the country
13:44under the Give-a-gift,
13:46Alay sa Batang Pinoy project.
13:48We also went to schools in remote areas.
13:54With our help,
13:56our project for the first part of January was completed.
14:00The GMA Foundation is a great help
14:03that you are giving here now,
14:05especially in the upcoming storms that will come to us.
14:16And to those who want to help in our projects,
14:19you can deposit in our bank accounts
14:22or send to Simoanal O'Lear.
14:24It can also be online via GCash, Shopee, Lazada, and Globe Rewards.
14:31Kapuso, the activity of Volcano Canlaon continues
14:36in Negros Occidental.
14:38So to those who live nearby,
14:40please be extra careful.
14:42As a protection for the ashfall,
14:44the GMA Kapuso Foundation and MESIBIS Foundation
14:48distributed more than 300,000 N95 face masks.
14:53To date, we have given more than 28,000 N95 face masks
14:59to the Rural Health Unit of La Castellana.
15:02We were also able to distribute to the town of Bago and La Carlota.
