00:00Since March 28, assistance is prohibited under the election guidelines.

00:05The Department of Social Welfare and Development asked for an exemption of assistance for the Kapos Angkita Program or AKAP.

00:13We have first news, Sandra Aguinaldo.

00:20During this election period, Comelec prohibited the assistance of assistance 45 days before the election.

00:27It started on March 28.

00:29But the Department of Social Welfare and Development, or DSWD,

00:33asked for an exemption for Comelec to distribute more than 13 billion pesos of assistance

00:40under the controversial AKAP or Assistance for Kapos Angkita Program.

00:45Comelec already passed the guidelines for the distribution of AKAP,

00:49so Comelec's legal department helped in its study.

00:52Comelec's priority should not be the campaign of politicians, but the citizens.

00:59The funds of the citizens and the government should not be used to promote the candidacy of some.

01:07Because it's not their fund and it's not their money.

01:10Distribution of any assistance, whatever its name, is prohibited 10 days before the election.

01:16In preparation for the election,

01:18Garcia said that the House Committee on Suffrage and Electoral Reform asked Comelec

01:24what is the status of obtaining the international certification of Comelec

01:29for the automated election system that will be used in the election.

01:32It should be obtained three months before the election, according to the law.

01:37The source code of its software should also be deposited in the Central Bank of the Philippines.

01:43According to Comelec, the international certification is about to be obtained

01:48and the source code is being deposited in the vault of the Central Bank.

01:53Comelec explained that the investigation of the OVCS or Online Voting Counting System

02:01that is used by Filipino voters in other countries needs more time.

02:04The issue is that there are adjustments in the OVCS,

02:08especially the addition of government issued IDs that can be accepted.

02:14Before the election, all three source codes will be deposited.

02:19According to Garcia, even in the automated elections that took place,

02:22the international certification was not obtained three months before the election.

02:27In the 2022 elections, it was obtained only three days before the election.

02:34Here is the first news. Sandra Aguinaldo for GMA Integrated News.
