00:04 Comelec has now released a list of areas of concern
00:07 regarding the upcoming Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections.
00:11 First news is Tina Panganiban Perez.
00:13 [Music]
00:17 Due to this incident, 21 or most of the barangays in Malabang Lanao del Sur
00:23 were placed in the red category for the Barangay-SK elections.
00:28 Lanao del Sur is in the Moro Autonomous Region in Muslim Indanao or BARM
00:33 where the most barangays in the red category
00:37 are the most heavily guarded by Comelec.
00:41 The occurrence of politically motivated election-related incidents
00:45 and the various history of declaration of our areas of concern
00:50 are also under Comelec control.
00:52 In Libon Albay where some candidates were killed,
00:56 8 barangays are in the red category.
00:59 The situation in the yellow category is not hot,
01:03 but it is still necessary to guard.
01:05 Barangay Sering in Socorro Surigao del Norte is one of the barangays.
01:09 Controversial Barangay Capihan is not included in the areas of concern
01:14 where Socorro Bayanihan Services is based and is accused of being a cult.
01:19 But Comelec put a checkpoint there.
01:22 Metro Manila is in the green category
01:25 which means it is generally peaceful.
01:28 Barangay Bagong Silangan in Quezon City is the only one
01:31 where candidates are hotly fighting.
01:35 Historically, when we are close to the election,
01:39 the rivalry intensifies.
01:42 When an area is declared under the red category,
01:45 that could be the basis for placing an area under Comelec control
01:50 if the situation further intensifies.
01:53 For now, Negros Oriental is the only area under Comelec control.
01:58 If this continues, security forces will be added.
02:02 For areas under Comelec control, there will be augmentation.
02:06 And in the barm areas also, there will be augmentation
02:10 because historically, we know that there are election violences,
02:17 there are election-related incidents in the area.
02:21 This is the first news.
