02:38 This is a vindication of my name, and I am emerging victorious at this point.

02:44 [Speaking in Tagalog]

03:04 [Speaking in Tagalog]

03:14 [Speaking in Tagalog]

03:24 [Speaking in Tagalog]

03:37 I am so surprised since based on the information sheet, there was no bribery or indirect or direct bribery filed.

03:46 I will ask my lawyers to exhaust all legal remedies, all legal options available for me.

03:51 None of the witnesses stated that they have seen or that they gave him money or cash or any consideration.

04:01 We don't understand what is the basis of their bribery.

04:04 According to Senator Estrada's lawyers, he will remain in prison and will still serve as a senator

04:10 because the decision of the Sandigan Bayan has not yet been finalized and it will be appealed until the Supreme Court.

04:16 Until it becomes final, he still can hold office.

04:21 Napoles was also acquitted of plunder but guilty of corruption of public official and he was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison.

04:29 Napoles was given back more than P260 million pesos of interest and was fined P30 million pesos.

04:36 The Bayan is still at large. We are still trying to get a statement from Ombudsman.

04:41 For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, 24 hours.

04:46 Senator Gingo Estrada will appeal his guilty of direct and indirect bribery.

04:54 How about his position as a senator? That is what Chino Gaston is talking about.

05:00 After one decade, my case has already been resolved.

05:07 Senator Gingo Estrada's acquittal of his case of plunder is a great success.

05:14 It was revealed that Estrada did not know that the NGO projects of Janet Lib Napoles were ghost projects

05:21 that were conducted by the senator through his Priority Development Assistance Fund or PDAF.

05:26 According to the court, the chief of staff of the senator, Mary Labayan Lang, is directly liable to Napoles.

05:32 I did not steal any money. I did not receive any money.

05:36 But Estrada is not acquitted of all the accusations.

05:40 He is guilty of one count of direct bribery or plunder, which has a sentence of eight to more than seven years in prison and P3 million pesos fine.

05:49 And two counts of indirect bribery, which has a total of six years in prison.

05:55 Meanwhile, he is also prohibited from holding a public position and a lifetime of non-voting.

06:01 Estrada will appeal the two sentences.

06:03 Based on the information sheet, it is only the case of plunder.

06:07 I will ask my lawyers to exhaust all legal remedies, all legal options available for me.

06:12 Nothing is final. That is appealable. We will file the necessary motion for reconsideration before this illegal buyer.

06:20 To Senate President Mig Zubiri, Estrada will remain a senator while the decision is not final and executory.

06:28 Sen. Justice Secretary Laila de Lima, who was the first in Estrada's case, wants to know why the country's support for the evidence was not enough,

06:38 even though there are direct testimonies of Estrada and Napoles' plunder through a middle woman,

06:46 as well as Benjorn Lui's direct transfer of money to the office of the senator.

06:51 De Lima admitted that the decision to limit the bribery was the senator's decision.

06:58 But he reminded that Estrada can still convict the Supreme Court for the original case of plunder if the case is brought up here.

07:05 For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, 24 Hours.

07:10 It is said that there are only a few documents that are not enough for the requirements of the DNR to continue the plunder or reclamation in Manila Bay.

07:19 This was questioned by a group in the middle of the former Supreme Court order to fix the historical plunder.

07:26 Maki Pulido was the one who pointed it out.

07:28 The group that is discussing the matter, the DNR, is denying it.

07:35 Five years after the DNR launched the Manila Bay Rehabilitation Program,

07:40 as a follow-up to the order of the Grid of Continuing Mandamus of the Supreme Court to fix Manila Bay,

07:46 instead of rehabilitation, the DNR allowed dredging and reclamation.

07:52 Our current reefs are 80% to 90% no longer in the lives of fishermen.

07:57 More than 1,000 to 2,000 families from Bulacan to Cavite City are no longer in their homes and lives.

08:02 What else do we need to assist?

08:04 So if before, 20 fishers were able to catch their family in Manila Bay,

08:10 now, they are lucky if they are alone.

08:12 The fishermen in Manila Bay, they were able to catch big fish,

08:17 there are shrimps, there are fish, there are many kinds.

08:20 The area of the sea that is now covered by the Pasay is now more open

08:24 since the reclamation project was allowed to continue there.

08:27 And the area of the sea is now more open.

08:30 The Philippine Reclamation Authority said that the compliance audit of the DNR

08:36 for the suspended reclamation projects in Manila, Las Pinas, Navotas and Bacuor

08:41 in those four cities,

08:43 which are located in 2,400 hectares of the sea in Manila Bay, will be completed.

08:48 The DNR has a list of requirements based on the compliance audit they conducted

08:53 and this is now being completed by the project proponents.

08:56 They are all done with the inspection, so they are already in the paperwork.

09:01 Compliant with the conditions of the Environmental Compliance Certificate,

09:07 compliance with the area clearance conditions and other conditions imposed by the DNR.

09:16 At the time of completion of the requirements and obtaining the compliance certificate from the DNR,

09:22 they will be given a go signal by the Philippine Reclamation Authority to continue the inspection.

09:27 There should be a positive endorsement.

09:30 There is an in writing that says that these projects have been complied with

09:38 before we can order them to resume their activities.

09:43 Just like what we did with the two Pasay projects,

09:50 there was a report and then the report was endorsed to OP and PRA.

09:56 So PRA would order the resumption.

09:59 We asked for the DNR to be announced but it hasn't been announced yet.

10:03 For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido reporting for 24 Hours.

10:08 How are we going to put traffic on the North Luzon Expressway?

10:13 Especially on the first day of the Coldplay Concert in the Philippine Arena.

10:18 And JP Soriano is live there.

10:21 JP!

10:25 Vicky, if you are just going to the Philippine Arena and you are going to the northbound of the NLEX,

10:32 the traffic is very slow here in Balintawak 2+.

10:37 According to the latest update from NLEX, the speed of the vehicles is just reaching 5 to 15 kph

10:45 due to the heavy traffic.

10:46 From QC, we bid farewell to the NLEX and this is what happened.

10:52 From QC, we bid farewell to the NLEX and this is what happened.

10:55 From QC, we bid farewell to the NLEX and this is what happened.

11:00 From QC, we bid farewell to the NLEX and this is what happened.

11:05 From here, the vehicles are in a row, bumper to bumper.

11:09 The main reason for the traffic is the crowd that will attend the concert of the British Rock Band, Coldplay, in the Philippine Arena tonight.

11:18 Some of them were with us while we were waiting in the NLEX due to the traffic.

11:23 Did you watch Coldplay?

11:24 Coldplay, sir.

11:25 Coldplay?

11:26 Yes, sir.

11:27 Is the traffic okay?

11:28 Bumper to bumper, sir.

11:29 According to NLEX, the vehicles in Balintawak 12+ reached almost 2 kilometers in the evening.

11:38 After Balintawak 12+, the vehicles in NLEX Harbor Link Interchange Northbound will again slow down

11:46 due to the crowd.

11:48 From here, we will only run 5 to 15 kilometers per hour.

11:53 But some motorists blame the traffic, not just the concert in the Philippine Arena.

11:58 There's a problem with the road.

12:00 The road.

12:01 There's a traffic jam.

12:09 Vicky, that's what other motorists are saying.

12:14 The exit is very narrow due to the traffic.

12:17 Tomorrow, our fellow countrymen will go to the NLEX again

12:22 because there's a part 2 of the Coldplay concert here in the Philippine Arena.

12:27 So, expect heavy traffic, especially this weekend.

12:30 That's the latest.

12:31 Back to you, Vicky.

12:32 Thank you very much, JP Soriano.

12:37 The MMDA is removing some of the vehicles on the road

12:41 as well as some vehicles on the side of the roads.

12:45 Raffi Chima is on the case.

12:47 The MMDA Strike Force is going around this place almost every day

12:54 in Quezon Avenue in Quezon City.

12:56 But they still see the same violation.

13:00 Obstruction on the road by people.

13:04 That's why they're blocking and blocking the road

13:08 including this sidecar.

13:10 And to show that the MMDA is serious about their anti-violation operation,

13:14 they returned the place within less than an hour.

13:17 It's good that no one was seen returning to the road.

13:21 In the movement of the Strike Force in Quezon Memorial Circle and East Avenue,

13:24 the passing jeeps that are waiting for the passengers are almost not stopped.

13:29 And some of them just got out to see how many MMDA personnel are waiting.

13:35 The drivers said that this is not the right place to get off and ride.

13:39 So goodbye to the 1,000 pesos fine.

13:42 I don't know what to do.

13:44 I just want to see.

13:45 There are not many passengers like this.

13:48 That's why the passengers are not waiting here.

13:52 It's clear from the signage that the place is a no-loading and unloading zone.

13:56 According to the MMDA, they are against the usual behavior of the POV drivers

14:00 who chase the passengers.

14:02 That's why they're forced to stop here.

14:04 If the buses or jeeps won't stop and the passengers will ride,

14:08 then the passengers will have no choice.

14:11 They will go to the right loading and unloading area.

14:14 And for a busy road and always full of cars,

14:17 a few seconds of stopping of any car will cause a few minutes of traffic.

14:22 If you are loading and unloading a passenger,

14:25 it will take you more than 30 seconds or even more than 1 minute.

14:29 So it's a sign of the smooth flow of traffic of other motorists.

14:33 On Commonwealth Avenue,

14:35 MMDA did not allow the cars parked in front of a car dealership.

14:39 Because these cars are double parked,

14:41 they passed the established parking easement and blocked the road.

14:46 In other operations of MMDA in Irodriguez and Quezon City,

14:49 Shaw Boulevard and Wakwak in Mandaluyong,

14:52 28 drivers were stopped, 2 motorcycles and 8 cars were towed

14:57 and brought to the impounding area.

14:59 For GMA Integrated News,

15:01 Rafi Tima is the winner.

15:03 24 Hours.

15:05 Winter is coming in the world of sports.

15:19 Because today is the start of Winter Youth Olympics.

15:22 And let's be careful even if we don't have winter.

15:25 Because 3 Filipino blood will fight in the Global Event.

15:29 Let's meet the Filipino Pride who will change the game in the Olympics.

15:34 3 Filipino youth from different parts of the world

15:43 in one Global Sports Event.

15:45 Meet our Pinoy Pride who will fight

15:48 in the 4th Winter Youth Olympic Games in Gangwon, South Korea.

15:52 Representing the Philippines in Short Track Speed Skating,

15:57 the 16-year-old Filipino-American, Peter Grose-Klose.

16:01 Peter was the first to qualify in the Winter Youth Olympics

16:08 and placed 4th in the ISU Junior World Short Track Speed Skating Championships

16:14 in February 2023.

16:16 I feel honored and I'm really excited to compete this coming weekend.

16:22 And I feel very proud that I have the opportunity to do this.

16:25 That's why Peter went to South Korea to compete.

16:29 His improvement is huge.

16:31 He actually beat the Southeast Asian record during the season.

16:35 I feel like there are high chances for him to actually do well and place.

16:41 I feel very confident that I can skate in a way that I'll be proud of.

16:46 Based in Alberta, Canada,

16:48 the next representative in the country for Cross Country Skiing

16:51 is the 16-year-old Avery Balbanida.

16:56 I realized it's gonna happen.

17:01 So this is when I started to double down on a lot of my training.

17:05 Like destined to skate,

17:07 because even though he was born in the Philippines to Filipino parents,

17:10 they moved when he was 5 years old to Canada

17:13 where he found a sport that's more suited for winter sports.

17:16 My parents involved me heavily in so many different sports

17:20 and skiing was one of them.

17:22 It's a very grueling sport.

17:24 It's like a skiing marathon.

17:27 It's very focused.

17:28 This is the chance for me to show that even as Southeast Asians,

17:32 we can still thrive in a winter sport.

17:34 And to complete the trio,

17:36 the youngest of them will compete in Slopestyle and Big Air Skiing.

17:41 The 14-year-old is Leitas Amihanrabe,

17:44 based in Switzerland.

17:46 I am super happy to represent the Philippines and to compete.

17:50 My objective is to do my best.

17:52 You're 14 and you're used to going against older opponents.

17:58 It still motivates me.

17:59 I'll enjoy competing against them.

18:02 Even though Leitas' qualification is at the last minute,

18:05 she's definitely bringing her A-game.

18:07 She's the youngest of all competitors.

18:10 She'll be competing against 17-year-old kids.

18:13 She knows her competition.

18:15 So it's exciting to see how she competes.

18:18 I'm also preparing a trick that I cannot say for now.

18:22 I'm close to it.

18:23 And that's it, Kapuso.

18:24 Wishing our Pinoy youth athletes the best of luck and safety

18:28 as they raise our flag in the Winter Youth Olympics.

18:31 For GMA Integrated News, I'm your host, Joe.

18:35 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Avier,

18:38 Changing the Game!

18:40 There are more than 1,700 routes in the country.

18:44 The LTFRB states that there is no consolidated jeepney.

18:49 Will the long-term alternatives, especially in the province,

18:53 catch up?

18:54 Ian Cruz is on the scene.

19:01 The LTFRB assured that the commuters will not be able to ride from February 1

19:07 until the Colorum will consider all the jeepneys

19:11 that did not consolidate their franchise.

19:14 That's even more than 1,700 routes in the country

19:17 that have not consolidated a jeepney

19:20 based on the document from the LTFRB

19:22 that was examined by GMA Integrated News Research.

19:26 The most in Bicol, followed by Metro Manila,

19:29 where there are more than 300 routes that have not consolidated a jeepney.

19:33 We assure you, like in NCR,

19:35 these are just short-distance routes.

19:38 The LTFRB states that short-distance routes

19:42 that did not consolidate the franchise can now be extended.

19:46 There are many short-distance routes there,

19:49 from A to B, but there are also A to C routes that pass through A to B.

19:54 There are buses, jeeps, and UVs.

19:57 That's why it's being filled.

19:59 This is one of the Commonwealth Avenues

20:01 where many public utility jeeps and other passenger vehicles travel.

20:07 That's why we will find out on February 1

20:10 if the vehicles will be able to pass through here because of the large number of passengers.

20:14 In case they pass through, the government says that there are free rides

20:18 that will be given to those who were previously riding jeepneys that did not consolidate.

20:23 The LTO and its regional heads will also be in the office on Monday

20:27 as part of their preparations for their arrest on February 1,

20:30 which will target not only the Colorum jeepneys,

20:33 but also those vehicles that have not been registered.

20:36 There is a criminal liability up to 5 years imprisonment plus up to P3 million fine.

20:41 It's criminal that the Colorum has an imprisonment.

20:44 If there was none before...

20:46 The LTO will also monitor where public transport is lacking.

20:50 We're coordinating with all bus companies

20:53 just in case we have people who are in a bank.

20:57 In some places, the alternative to the jeepney is long.

21:01 But the LTO said that even they can be arrested by the agency.

21:05 For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz, Katutok, 24 Hours.

21:09 February 9 was declared as a special non-working holiday.

21:15 According to Malacanang, it's like the Chinese New Year

21:19 that will happen the next day, February 10.

21:22 The Chinese New Year's Eve will be on the same day as Friday.

21:27 So the public can enjoy the long weekend.

21:31 Meanwhile, a woman got a stroke.

21:37 After not returning her child she was with before

21:40 since she went on vacation in Manila.

21:43 Can she go home?

21:44 In the hands of the police,

21:46 that's a shame for my Katutok.

21:49 One mother from Ormoc, Leyte,

21:52 has been worrying for a month about her only daughter.

21:56 Why didn't you bring your child?

21:59 Are you sure you're taking care of her?

22:01 Why did you do this?

22:04 I miss the child.

22:07 I can't talk to her anymore.

22:09 The parents of the Dalagita are agreeing

22:12 to bring the child back after the new year.

22:15 But they won't bring back the child

22:18 they were with before

22:20 since she went on vacation in Manila last Christmas.

22:23 I wish that my child has a father.

22:28 I chose to think of my child as Christmas.

22:34 I want her to feel that she has a father.

22:36 From Ormoc, Leyte, Jocelyn Dovis flew to Manila

22:39 for an important mission.

22:41 To get back with her only mother,

22:45 Patricia, who's 13 years old.

22:47 She's not her real name.

22:49 A disagreement between her and her child's father.

22:53 Jocelyn decided to bring back her child

22:56 who she refused to bring back with her.

22:59 I gave her a two-day leave.

23:01 I told her that she can stay until 5

23:03 if she has a problem.

23:05 She can stay until January 5.

23:08 I waited for her until January 5.

23:11 I texted her to bring her back.

23:14 She has school.

23:16 She'll go to school.

23:18 Don't delay it.

23:19 I'm nervous because I can't contact her.

23:22 A few moments later, the parents arrived.

23:25 They were immediately confronted

23:27 by the Violence Against Women and Their Children

23:29 of VAUCIE officer.

23:30 Elvin explained.

23:32 It's a rightful decision, not mine.

23:34 It's a rightful decision.

23:35 I want to join them, her mother, her grandmother.

23:37 I have no problem with it.

23:38 But if the child doesn't want to, let's not delay it.

23:41 He said that he's not stopping the child

23:43 from going home to Ormoc.

23:44 It should really be returned.

23:47 What do you mean?

23:48 What should I do?

23:50 Should I tie this so that she can go home?

23:52 She doesn't want to go home.

23:53 Please answer me.

23:56 Should I tie this?

23:58 Should I tie this so that she can go home?

24:00 Their child, Patricia, is very brave.

24:03 I feel that even if my child is far away,

24:06 I feel that I love my child.

24:09 The parents should be on vacation.

24:11 Can they go home because of the custody?

24:14 Watch my full report this Sunday, 5pm on Recibo.

24:19 All set now for Chinese New Year.

24:27 The Chinese are the red arrow star, David Licauco.

24:30 Let's find out their family Chinese New Year traditions

24:34 with Chika Ni Katati Bayad.

24:36 Dashing and debonair in red,

24:41 the red arrow star, David Licauco

24:43 is in the advance celebration of Chinese New Year

24:45 on February 10.

24:46 Present in the event is the sparkled star, Nikki Ko

24:49 and the fiancé of Benjamin Alvins, Chelsea Robato.

24:52 They will share with us some traditions

24:55 that their family follows during Chinese New Year.

24:58 We also buy charms.

25:01 Like bracelets,

25:02 for good luck, for money, for health.

25:04 Yes, actually for Chinese New Year,

25:06 we always have dinner together.

25:07 And we also set a table.

25:09 We have gold coins, rice, and fruits available.

25:12 And we do something nice,

25:13 like have fireworks or enjoy time together.

25:16 We eat, we dance, as we call it.

25:19 And then, I'm most excited about the dragon dance.

25:23 It's a sign of good luck.

25:25 Good luck in everything you do in life.

25:29 And I think, when you do that,

25:32 the Chinese feel like, in a way, it's for good luck.

25:36 That's why we also follow the traditions of fruits.

25:38 And we put a stick outside the house

25:43 so that the money can enter.

25:47 This year of the wood dragon,

25:49 David's goal is to be more hands-on in business

25:52 and to be better in his showbiz projects.

25:55 David started in the taping of the prime series,

25:58 "Pulang Araw" with Barbie Fortezza,

26:01 Sanya Lopez, and Alden Richards.

26:04 I learned every role.

26:06 I learned from Maria Clara, from Carding.

26:09 And for this time in "Pulang Araw" as Hiroshi,

26:13 I want to immerse myself in Japanese culture as much as I can.

26:19 He enjoys taping, especially with his family,

26:23 his co-artists and crew.

26:25 Barbie is there, so she keeps me...

26:28 I have this assurance that everything is going to be okay

26:30 when I'm with her because she's easy-going,

26:34 and we know each other so well.

26:36 That's why David takes his Nihongo lessons seriously every day.

26:40 David says that he can relate very much to his role.

26:44 When you're Japanese, you're a bit shy.

26:47 Shy type.

26:48 When you smile, you're like...

26:50 When you're courting, you're a bit shy.

26:52 I think I'm like that in a way, in real life.

26:57 I don't have a hard time with that, just being my real self.

27:01 Kata Tibayan, updated on the showbiz happenings.

27:05 And that's my chika this Friday night.

27:09 I'm Adaliano, always looking forward to the weekend.

27:13 Happy weekend, Kapuso!

27:15 Miss Mel, Miss Vicky, Emil.

27:17 Thank you, auntie.

27:19 And that's the news this Friday. I'm Mel Tiangco.

27:22 I'm Vicky Morales for a bigger mission.

27:25 For a wider service to the country, I'm Emil Sumangil.

27:29 From GMA Integrated News, the Philippine News Authority,
