00:06 Good morning. Here are the first news of GMA Integrated News.
00:14 Domino effect. The price of oil products is rising again.
00:19 At the price of other goods.
00:21 From Quezon City, we have live news.
00:23 It's Bam Alegre.
00:25 Good morning, Bam.
00:27 [Music]
00:29 Maris, good morning.
00:31 The price of oil products is rising again.
00:35 Last week and last June, the price of oil products rose.
00:37 In some expressways.
00:39 This is what the vegetable traders are preparing here in Balintawak Market.
00:43 It's possible to sell it to the customers.
00:45 [Music]
00:47 OJ Villanueva did not travel yesterday from Baliwag, Bulacan to sell vegetables in Balintawak Market in Quezon City.
00:55 He used to travel every day.
00:57 But after the price of diesel increased by almost four pesos per liter, he stopped in the car.
01:03 He just waited for the delivery schedule.
01:06 We just need to continue our journey.
01:08 Diesel, how much did we increase?
01:10 It's already 50 plus. It will be 60.
01:12 Then, the tollgate, we increased it.
01:14 We are already having a hard time.
01:16 We need people.
01:18 So, even if we lose, we will just travel.
01:20 Aside from diesel, the price of tolls increased in the North Luzon Expressway last June by 40 pesos.
01:26 If you travel every day like Jeffrey Bernardo from Angat, Bulacan, you will be affected by its effect.
01:32 We feel the same.
01:33 Toll, gas, vegetables are rising a little bit because they are returning the diesel.
01:41 That's why travelers like OJ and Jeffrey have nothing to do but to increase the price of their traveling products.
01:47 Florinda de Guzman, a vendor, felt the same.
01:50 She noticed that travelers are coming, vegetables are running out, and above all, the price is rising.
01:56 And because it's getting cheaper, she needs to increase the price of these when it comes to the market.
02:01 For example, the green chili is 200 pesos per kilo since 150 pesos before.
02:06 The red chili is 200 pesos per kilo but it was only 80 pesos before.
02:11 Travelers are reducing their traveling expenses because of the high cost of gasoline.
02:17 They are saving their traveling expenses.
02:19 When they travel, they just use the same gasoline.
02:22 Marie, according to our conversations, travelers,
02:30 they used to budget 2,000 pesos for two to three days of consumption.
02:35 Now, they are saving 1,000 pesos for one day because usually, 800 pesos is one way.
02:42 For example, from Balibag, Bulacan to Balintawak Market.
02:46 This is the latest from Quezon City, Bamalagre for GMA Integrated News.
02:50 They were alarmed when they learned that we are sending some cadets to a military school in Beijing, China.
02:58 Senator Francis Tolentino warned the Senate.
03:02 He is worried that the Chinese government might fund the training of Filipino cadets.
03:08 Senator Diego Estrada, chairperson of the Committee on National Defense and Security, also learned about this.
03:15 Senator Rafi Tulfo is being attacked in the Philippines.
03:19 He is trying to bully China in the country.
03:21 Defense Undersecretary Ireneo Espino admitted that he heard about the sending of some cadets to a military school in Beijing.
03:30 But they will ask about this first.
03:33 We will try to get the Chinese Embassy to explain this.
03:38 Some manufacturers are asking for high prices for 43 products.
03:42 According to the Department of Trade and Industry, it includes milk, noodles, and canned meat.
03:47 They are asking for 10 to 7 pesos for food products.
03:51 1 peso and 50 cents to 9 pesos and 75 cents for non-food products.
03:57 DTI is still studying if the adjustment in price will be allowed.
04:02 DTI is strictly monitoring the implementation of price freeze in places that are in a state of calamity due to the recent typhoons.
04:10 The flood is still not stopping in a hospital in Macabebe, Pampanga that was hit by the recent typhoons.
04:17 From the lobby to the ward and emergency room, a flood hit a floodplain in Domingo V Flores District Hospital.
04:25 Not only ambulances but also boats are using the road to deliver patients.
04:30 The flood reached the gate to the main entrance.
04:34 The provincial government has promised that it will not compromise the safety of more than 100 employees and patients in the hospital.
04:42 Let's see Ms. Chika Shai.
04:46 After 16 years, Sunny left the South Korean girl group, The Girls' Generation, to her agency, SM Entertainment.
04:53 On her IG, the lead vocalist shared a heartfelt message.
04:57 She thanked SM Entertainment, family and co-members.
05:01 She also said that her appreciation for the support of her fans is great.
05:04 Sunny also said that she is trying to see herself in the new environment from a different perspective.
05:12 In the official statement of SM Entertainment, they also thanked her for being their partnership with OG Korean Idol.
05:21 New steps need to be taken in the middle of volatile geopolitics, according to President Bongbong Marcos.
05:27 He was mentioned by President Curtis Cole and US Senator Tommy Duckworth yesterday.
05:32 Geopolitics is the policy behind the escalation of the interests of one or more countries for the control of territory or place using influence and power.
05:44 According to the President, the Philippines has the most complicated geopolitics now.
05:49 As a friendly country, the Philippines and the United States need to work together to advance the new geopolitics in the Asia-Pacific region.
06:00 The President and Duckworth also discussed the problem of the lack of nurses in the Philippines.
06:05 According to Duckworth, students from the United States are studying to study in nursing schools here in the country.
06:13 He also mentioned the US Embassy in the Philippines for the long-term efforts to address the shortage of nursing programs and residency slots in the United States.
06:22 He said that the intelligence, English fluency and quality of service of Filipino nurses is recognized there.
06:29 Boycotts to China were called after the Chinese Coast Guard bombed the water.
06:34 The Philippine Marine Vehicle was included in the resupply mission to BRP Sierra Madre.
06:39 Here is my first news.
06:42 In this video from the China Coast Guard or CCG, the Chinese ship was seen bombing the water on August 5.
06:52 The smaller marine vehicle is one of the Philippine vessels that will be supplied to BRP Sierra Madre, which is located in Ayungin Shoal.
07:01 According to the CCG, they are just warning the Filipinos.
07:05 But in this video, which was shared by Senate President Ming Zubiri, the Filipinos are being hit by water.
07:12 This is also what you will see in the videos released by the Philippine Coast Guard.
07:17 In a statement, the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that they have already launched a serious demarche or a formal declaration of position or protest by the Chinese government against the action of the Philippines.
07:29 The spokesperson of China has repeatedly promised the Philippines to remove the BRP Sierra Madre from Ayungin, but instead, it is being repaired and strengthened.
07:39 This is like a figment of their imagination.
07:43 They are the only ones who know and they are saying when.
07:46 We will never enter into agreement that will lead to the abandonment of our sovereign rights and jurisdiction over Ayungin Shoal.
07:57 Next is the bombing of the water of the China Coast Guard.
08:01 The discussion on how to manage the mandatory military service was revived.
08:05 Military service that would be obligatory for able-bodied citizens, Mr. Chairman.
08:11 So this should be totally pursued to its conclusion.
08:17 The Constitution also states that our people, our citizens, should be ready to defend our country at any time.
08:35 China was also called to boycott the next incident.
08:39 According to Zubiri, this could start with the blacklisting of Chinese companies that are doing government projects in the country.
08:46 Instead, this would be given to countries that have the same view on the Philippines when it comes to the West Philippine Sea.
08:53 I will mention this in the budget hearing to all agencies that have infrastructure projects and programs.
09:02 I am appealing to them.
09:04 The Filipinos should also start boycotting products from China, just like what other countries in the region did.
09:11 But according to an economist, it is difficult to boycott products.
09:15 China is the biggest trading partner of the Philippines in 2022, based on the data collected by the GMA Integrated News Research.
09:23 Not so easy because as you said, many countries need imports from China.
09:30 So if it's just us, I don't think it will have an effect.
09:35 It will work if there are other countries that will join us, like the U.S.
09:41 If the U.S. joins us, then that will be a big dent on the trade of China.
09:50 Despite the incident, the morale of our troops in BRP Sierra Madre remains high.
09:57 They know that our country is continuously fighting to protect their rights and our sovereignty.
10:04 According to AFP, their target is to continue the resupply mission within two weeks.
10:09 Only half of the unloaded supplies are available. That's not enough.
10:14 I'm not sure but we need to resupply them within the next two weeks.
10:18 But we will see how we are going to do it because of what's happening in the West Philippine Sea.
10:26 A fire broke out in a mall in Antipolo earlier this morning.
10:31 We have live news with James Agustin. James.
10:37 Good morning.
10:41 Bureau of Fire Protection is investigating how many establishments were affected by the fire that broke out in a mall here in Marcos Highway in Antipolo.
10:50 It's past four thirty in the morning when the BFP Antipolo received a call regarding the incident.
10:57 The first alarm was raised just a few minutes ago. The first responder was in the third fire truck.
11:02 According to a witness, he was surprised to smell something like burnt rubber.
11:07 He said he saw thick smoke coming from the ground floor of the mall.
11:11 According to the management of SMCT Masinag, the fire started in an establishment in the lower ground level.
11:18 They are still trying to find out how many establishments were affected.
11:21 Security guards tried to put out the fire but they couldn't. So they called for help from the BFP.
11:27 At 5.20am, the fire was declared under control until it was completely put out at 6am.
11:34 Meanwhile, the fire was still inside the compound of the mall as you can see the responding fire trucks.
11:39 While the investigation is still ongoing by the Bureau of Fire Protection.
11:43 We are still waiting for additional details from the BFP.
11:47 According to the management of the mall, their operation is normal from 10am to 9pm.
11:55 That's the first news from Antipolo. I am James Agustin for GEMA Integrated News.
12:00 This is good news for you, Army. The long wait is over.
12:05 On September 8, the release of the first solo album of BTS Superstar V.
12:10 The title is Lay Over.
12:12 Yes, it has 5 tracks plus a bonus track.
12:17 Wow!
12:18 There's also a music video.
12:19 The 5 songs in the album are Rainy Days, Blue, Love Me Again, Slow Dancing, and For Us.
12:27 For the hair, your bias, Ms. MSM.
12:31 The road re-blocking and asphalting of the Department of Public Works and Highways at EDSA Busway is done.
12:38 From Balintawak to Buendia.
12:40 Here's the first news, James Agustin.
12:42 The EDSA Busway Northbound part of Munoz area is just being dried up where the DPWH road was asphalted.
12:51 That's why some buses were not able to pass earlier this morning.
12:55 According to MMDA, all road repairs in different parts of the busway are done.
12:59 That's why the buses are expected to continue their journey today.
13:03 The road re-blocking and asphalting of the road was started last Friday night in more than 15 areas from Balintawak to Buendia.
13:10 In the southbound lane of the busway, the bus journey is back to normal.
13:14 The drivers were happy that the road was fixed.
13:18 Yes, sir. Because there's no traffic.
13:21 There's no traffic.
13:23 It's good to run.
13:25 It's not bad.
13:27 It's better for you.
13:29 It's good for the bus and for the driver.
13:34 This is also the reaction of the passengers who were stuck in heavy traffic this weekend.
13:39 The journey became comfortable. It's fast.
13:42 It's continuous.
13:43 It's faster now compared to the past.
13:47 There's more traffic on the other side compared to the bus lane now.
13:52 The company is also preparing for the FIBA World Cup hosting of the country that will be held from the end of August to September.
13:59 This is the first news. James Agustin for JEMAI Integrated News.
14:04 Aside from the effects on the environment, the livelihood of fishermen is also affected because of the reclamation projects in Manila Bay.
14:12 Live from Parañaque, the first news is from Darlene Cai.
14:16 Darlene.
14:21 Iga, the fishermen here in Parañaque are having a hard time because of their small catch.
14:26 What they are teaching that is the main reason for the fish to be affected here is the continuous reclamation projects in Manila Bay.
14:34 Before, the number of fish caught in Manila Bay was in the thousands.
14:44 Now, it's just a bunch of fish.
14:46 The fishing in Manila Bay is already that poor that's why they are also having a hard time finding a livelihood.
14:52 What they are teaching is the big reason for the reclamation projects in Manila Bay.
14:57 The loss is big since they reclaimed there.
15:00 Because the water was so wide back then. It was deep.
15:04 Now, it's just soil. It's just sand.
15:08 This year alone, they also noticed the increase of Chinese ships that are doing reclamation.
15:15 They are really confused with our fishing.
15:19 The way they are doing it, it's a lot.
15:24 It's almost 40 boats that are big.
15:31 The Philippine Reclamation Authority also confirmed that there are reclamation projects in Manila Bay that are being done by Chinese construction firms.
15:39 This includes the plan to make the place an entertainment and gaming tourism spot.
15:45 Because of this, many of Fernando's colleagues have stopped fishing.
15:50 That's why some people are looking for a livelihood.
15:54 They are not building anymore.
15:56 They just stopped.
15:58 Because it's prohibited in Bandang Kabiti.
16:01 He said that less than one-fourth of the people who were caught before are now returning home.
16:06 According to Porter, the workers here are doing reclamation projects almost every day.
16:12 Sometimes, they also join the fishermen.
16:15 They are not being chased.
16:17 But the effect of reclamation on their fishermen is not negligible.
16:23 The Chinese are returning home to eat.
16:26 The boats are not being returned.
16:29 They are doing it for their livelihood.
16:32 That's all. It's nerve-racking.
16:34 For example, the fishermen are doing it for their livelihood.
16:38 The fishermen here are calling for the reclamation projects to be monitored properly
16:43 that are beneficial to the fishermen who are looking for a livelihood.
16:47 If they didn't reclaim the water,
16:50 we as fishermen would be free to fish there.
16:56 If you are going to be caught there, where are we going?
17:00 [Waves crashing]
17:03 According to the DENR,
17:08 even though the reclamation projects are beneficial to the economy,
17:12 the effect of it should still be studied.
17:15 That's why they are doing a cumulative impact assessment.
17:19 This is the first news for now.
17:21 I'm Darlene Kaye for GMA Integrated News.
