NewsTranscript
00:00Only 3 out of 41 vloggers who were invited by the Tri-Committee of the Camera to their hearings
00:07were involved in spreading fake information online.
00:10Some vloggers who did not attend the hearings
00:13petitioned the Supreme Court to stop the committee from summoning them to the hearing.
00:18Witness, Tina Panginiban Perez.
00:21This is the first hearing of the Tri-Committee of the Camera
00:24whose aim is to solve the longstanding problem of spreading fake information online.
00:30One of the topics discussed in the hearing
00:33is the destruction of several social media accounts
00:36that are based in the Philippines but are still connected to China.
00:40This is the smallest one.
00:41We were told that a pro-China network of ex-accounts
00:45is spreading anti-Philippine sentiment
00:47while pushing content related to Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:51We are listening to the statement of Vice President Sara Duterte about this.
00:56The question of Tri-Comm Co-Chairperson Representative Dan Fernandez
01:00The destruction of our ownership of the West Philippine Sea
01:05is affected by the spread of lies on social media.
01:10In the spread of lies on social media,
01:14the Philippine trolls are spreading false information about this.
01:21Can we consider them as traitors of the country?
01:24But of the 41 vloggers who were invited to the hearing,
01:27only 3 attended.
01:29Some vloggers said that they are from other countries.
01:33I am referring to A.K.A. Jeff DeVille.
01:37He slandered me here.
01:40He said,
01:43You are a fool.
01:46You are a waste of electricity.
01:51Respectfully, Elizabeth Joey Cruz.
01:54It's hard for you. You are slandering us
01:56when we don't have any enemies.
01:58Come here.
02:01He will give a show-cause order
02:03even to other vloggers who did not attend.
02:06He is also the lawyer
02:08and former Press Secretary Trixie Angeles
02:10who wants Tri-Comm to be disbarred.
02:13This hearing is not to suppress
02:17their freedom of speech.
02:20Our aim here is to make the police
02:25use social media platforms.
02:28We should have discipline.
02:31We should have a code of conduct.
02:34We should have ethics in using social media.
02:38The DICT admitted that they have a problem
02:41in tracking those who spread lies online.
02:44We are not saying that we will control social media,
02:47but just to allow the law enforcement agencies
02:51to have more immediate power to react.
02:54We have a challenge in obtaining information and evidence
02:57because sometimes they post fake identities on Facebook.
03:00Political trolls are not that brainwashed,
03:03uneducated, poor voters in rural areas.
03:06Some of them are from middle-class families
03:09and they see political trolling as just a side gig,
03:12a hustle to make ends meet.
03:15There are different kinds of workers
03:17and we need to hold accountable the people at the top,
03:20the elites in advertising and PR industries.
03:23There are journalists who vlog,
03:26but vlogging does not make you a journalist.
03:29As a journalist,
03:31we adhere to the core values of journalism
03:35which are truthfulness, fairness.
03:38Do you believe in social media vlogging?
03:43Do you believe that we need to have a code of conduct
03:46or at least there should be ethical standards?
03:50The Supreme Court requested that some DIC
03:53should go to the House hearing against fake news
03:57to stop violating their freedom of speech
04:00by forcing them to go to the hearing.
04:03However, the hearing was not in aid of legislation
04:07but to humiliate them and violate their freedom of speech.
04:12They also requested to stop the so-called
04:15social media regulation that violated the Constitution.
04:19They should not be included in the media
04:23because they do not broadcast news
04:26but opinions.
04:27The lawyer who is being humiliated by the committee
04:30is ready to answer.
04:32We are stopping them from continuing the hearing
04:38to stop their intimidation
04:42of us who are speaking on social media.
04:46And to end this proposed legislation.
04:50They are saying
04:52Regulatory framework for social media.
04:56For GMA Integrated News,
04:58I am Tina Panganiban Perez, your witness.
05:03A giant warship of China
05:05and two more Chinese vessels
05:07crossed the Sulu Sea near Basilan.
05:09In the Philippine Navy,
05:11three Chinese ships sailed from Mindoro
05:13to Basilan
05:14and suddenly slowed down
05:16when 15 nautical miles from the island arrived.
05:19These ships were intercepted and guarded by the Philippine Navy.
05:22The Chinese Coast Guard Vessels 3301 and 3104
05:26were not stopped by the BRP Cabra
05:30until they were able to leave
05:32the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
05:34The Philippine and American Air Exercise
05:37was conducted in the West Philippine Sea
05:39and in Bajo de Macinloc.
05:41In the Philippine Air Force,
05:43there was no radio challenge
05:45from the Chinese aircraft
05:47when the exercise was conducted.
05:49According to the China Southern Theater Command Air Force,

05:54together with an external country
05:56intended to destroy
05:58the peace and stability

07:46One of the cast members

07:52Kevin Dasom.
07:58Indayog Dance Troupe
08:00has a special performance
08:02from Letran Bataan.
08:04We made sure that the quality
08:06of the competition is much
08:08better compared
08:10to the previous years.
08:12Teams have improved a lot
08:14so it becomes unpredictable
08:16in the quality of the competition.
08:18For GMA Integrated News
08:20I am Nitu Ahe, your Saksi.
08:24You can buy rice from the NFA
08:26for P35 per kilo
08:28the next day
08:30following the declaration of food security emergency
08:32by the Department of Agriculture.
08:34Saksi, by Bernetta Treas.
08:40P58 per kilo is the maximum
08:42suggested retail price for rice now.
08:44But the world price is going down
08:46in the world market so it will go down
08:48as well. Starting tomorrow,
08:50P55 per kilo will go down
08:52the maximum suggested retail price
08:54for 5% locally imported rice
08:56here in Metro Manila.
08:58When February 15 ends,
09:00it will be implemented nationwide.
09:02In the next days
09:04or weeks,
09:06it will be possible to get
09:08from the NFA
09:10or National Food Authority.
09:12The NFA's impacted rice
09:14should only be buffer stock
09:16that can be exported if there is a storm
09:18or other emergency.
09:20But because of the declared food security
09:22emergency for rice,
09:24it can be exported and sold for P33 per kilo
09:26to local governments
09:28as a company controlled
09:30by the government
09:32and other government agencies.
09:34When exported to buyers,
09:36it will be P35 per kilo.
09:39It's a big help for us
09:41P35 per kilo of rice.
09:43It's a big help
09:45for the buyers but
09:47the NFA said it's a loss.
09:49Initially, the recommendation
09:51was P38. But now
09:53because it's a necessity
09:55to release the stocks
09:57and create space,
09:59it's better to lower it
10:01to P33 to LGUs
10:03and then P35
10:05to the public.
10:07We really need to do this
10:09to control and lower the price
10:11and vacate our warehouses
10:13so that the NFA can buy
10:15the harvest from the farmers.
10:17But according to a group of farmers,
10:19to be sold for P35 per kilo,
10:21the sale of rice
10:23will be lowered.
10:25The equivalent rice price
10:27will be about P17 to P18 per kilo.
10:29At that price,
10:31maybe half of the farmers
10:33will lose.
10:35We need to release people
10:37from the real solution
10:39which is to go after
10:41the property.
10:43Why didn't they do that?
10:45The food security emergency
10:47could be resolved
10:49if the price of rice is lowered.
10:51Some products are expected
10:53to be priced up
10:55starting this February.
10:57Some brands of sardines,
10:59canned meat, evaporated milk,
11:01Pinoy Tasty and Pinoy Pandesal,
11:03The Department of Trade and Industry
11:05allowed some manufacturers
11:07to raise the price.
11:09But it won't exceed 10%
11:11according to the DTI.
11:13This week, the Suggested Retail Price Guide
11:15will be released
11:17to serve as a guide to buyers.
11:19Consumers will see an increase
11:21in the next few weeks.
11:23According to the Department of Trade and Industry,
11:25the main reason for manufacturers
11:27to raise the price
11:29is the rising costs of raw materials.
11:31The more products you raise the price,
11:33the more you won't be able to raise.
11:35That is why
11:37buyers don't know
11:39how to budget
11:41and will adjust again.
11:43Maybe we will reduce the price
11:45of snacks
11:47to provide the other needs
11:49that we need to buy.
11:51Before, we used to buy a big sardine.
11:53Now, we only buy one sardine.
11:55I will just make a soup
11:57and we will just saute it.
12:00For GMA Integrated News,
12:02I am Bernadette Reyes,
12:04your witness.
12:30until the next leaders
12:32of the region will be elected.
12:34Deputy Minority Leader Mugjib Katawan
12:36did not agree with the BICAM report
12:38that the Basilan part of the BARM
12:40has been removed.
12:42He said that if they want peace,
12:44the Moro people should let their leaders
12:46elect in the May elections.
12:50For a law to be passed,
12:52the Senate and the House
12:54need to strengthen the BICAM report
12:56and President Marcos' signature.
