00:00 [Music]
00:07 Live from the GMA Network Center, this is 24 Horas.
00:12 [Music]
00:17 [Music]
00:18 Kabuyaw Laguna was strongly destroyed
00:22 because of the fire that started
00:25 in a construction of a fire extinguisher in Barangay Biga'a.
00:29 Two people were confirmed dead.
00:32 There were critical accidents and the whole body was burnt.
00:36 We will bring you the details of this news later.
00:40 [Music]
00:43 Good evening, Pauluzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
00:47 The case of murders in the Philippines was filed.
00:52 That is the challenge of Vice President Sara Duterte
00:55 against the accused, he is the one who led the oplan to hang in Davao City
01:00 where thousands of people were killed.
01:03 The vice president believes that there are people behind the accusation
01:06 that he was targeted for being accused in the International Criminal Court or ICC.
01:11 The vice president called for a new script.
01:14 He was not included in the murders in Davao City
01:18 by the mayor or vice mayor of Lungsod.
01:20 And Marisol Abdurrahman was involved.
01:22 [Music]
01:25 This script is new.
01:28 This is the reaction of Vice President Sara Duterte
01:31 to the statement of Arturo LascaƱas yesterday.
01:34 LascaƱas is a retired police officer and a former leader and member of Davao Death Squad
01:40 who joined the pre-trial investigation of the International Criminal Court.
01:45 And the vice president said that he started the oplan to hang
01:49 when he was the mayor of Davao City.
01:51 LascaƱas said that up to 10,000 people were killed under the oplan to hang in Davao City.
01:58 Vice President Duterte argued that in the years he served as the vice mayor and mayor of Davao City,
02:05 his name was never mentioned in the oplan to hang and in other incidents of murders in Lungsod.
02:12 Suddenly, a witness against me, the vice president, appeared.
02:17 And I am now one of the accused in the International Criminal Court.
02:22 The timing of the release of the said issue is doubtful.
02:26 Aside from the time, it is clear that he was forced to mention my name in this issue
02:32 so that I would be accused in the ICC.
02:35 According to the vice president,
02:37 the ICC's inquiry into the judicature is a way to enter the sovereignty of the country.
02:42 The vice president said that he will only face the Filipino court and the Filipino court.
02:48 In Duterte's statement, it seems that he believes that there are people behind LascaƱas
02:53 who he accused of being the accused here in the country.
02:56 This is a violation of the dignity of the Filipinos and the pride of the Philippines.
03:01 This debate is no longer valid for the witnesses and the people behind him.
03:06 File a murder case against me here in the Philippines.
03:11 This is also the challenge of Senator Bato de la Rosa, who was accused by LascaƱas in Oplan Tukhang.
03:17 The GMA News is still trying to get the attention of former President Rodrigo Duterte,
03:22 Congressman Paulo Duterte, Senator Bong Go, Pastor Apolo Kibuloy,
03:26 and other personalities accused by LascaƱas.
03:30 For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abduraman, Nakatuto 24 Horas.
03:39 Senator Bong Go's country is just a fake and fake in his accusation
03:44 against those who gave orders to kill Davao death squad.
03:48 Go said that the former president has been an aide for a long time.
03:51 There is no illegal order given by former President Rodrigo Duterte
03:55 even when he was the mayor of Davao.
03:57 He said that he did not see or get a list
04:01 and he will not obey any illegal order from anyone.
04:06 If the allegations are true, they have been accused for a long time.
04:10 The accusation is already old-fashioned.
04:13 And the allegations of Arturo LascaƱas are still being investigated
04:19 by some groups that investigated Vice President Sara Duterte in the country.
04:28 The ICC has an answer and the same with the Listener General
04:32 on the possibility of having an arrest warrant.
04:36 This is what Tina Panganiban-Perez and Salima Refran are talking about.
04:40 The accusation of the Davao death squad member Arturo LascaƱas
04:49 against Vice President Sara Duterte,
04:52 as he was behind the shooting in Davao City when he was the mayor,
04:57 is also being investigated by ACT Teachers Party List.
05:01 I am really confused and I was shocked by the revelations.
05:06 I am also worried as the Secretary of Education
05:12 if the education sector will know that there is a secretary like that.
05:19 And if the visa will be presented to the camera?
05:22 He has no choice.
05:23 Let's see how far we will push
05:27 or how far the powers of the Congress will go.
05:33 The allegations were first denied by the Vice President,
05:36 which he called scripted.
05:38 ACT Teachers Party List is also included in the resolution
05:42 by Gabriela and Kabataan Party Lists.
05:45 They are still studying when the resolution will be issued.
05:49 Even the Commission on Human Rights should also investigate
05:52 according to the group Karapatan.
05:54 We are also trying to get the CHR to speak.
05:57 But another question is how if there is a result of the investigation in the Duterte drug war?
06:04 The Solicitor General himself said that the ICC can really issue an arrest warrant
06:10 even though the Philippines has long been in a room statute.
06:14 But the warrant will be issued in a different way
06:18 where the cooperation of the government of the Philippines is important.
06:22 And the very issuance of the warrant should be based on the existence of reasonable grounds
06:28 that the crime was committed under the jurisdiction of the ICC.
06:33 The government of the Philippines was a gate back then.
06:36 The ICC no longer has a jurisdiction
06:38 since the Philippines' reliance on the room statute in 2019 became effective.
06:44 But the Supreme Court said that it has a jurisdiction
06:48 on crimes committed before the reliance.
06:51 The ICC spokesman also stated in the GMA Integrated News
06:56 that even if the member of the ICC is not a suspect of a simple investigation,
07:01 the conditions of the ICC jurisdiction can be reached.
07:06 Non-ICC members can voluntarily assist, like the implementation of arrest warrants.
07:12 If a suspect is arrested and charged with ICC,
07:16 he will be jailed in the ICC Detention Center in the Netherlands
07:20 while the pre-trial and hearings will be attended by ICC judges.
07:25 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Refrain.
07:28 Tina, Panganiban Perez.
07:30 We learned 24 hours.
07:33 There's a new millionaire who was hit by a 642 drone by the martyr's lottery.
07:40 In the middle of the left-right doubt on the next victory,
07:45 the PCSO submitted to the Senate the list of jackpots
07:50 and their payment of taxes since July.
07:54 One of the questions now is the possible manipulation of the computer system.
07:59 Mauve Gonzalez was the one who got the answer.
08:01 If there are no proper safeguards, can the entire computer system be manipulated?
08:12 And the answer was yes.
08:14 The Senate again submitted the possibility of the PCSO entering the system
08:21 holding the so-called root access.
08:23 It should be in the PCSO chairman of a root access.
08:27 It should be two, three, four, five people.
08:34 There are many accesses.
08:36 But they should be together to open it.
08:39 It should not be one person who will open it.
08:44 According to the PCSO Office of the General Manager,
08:47 not because there's a root access, the lottery winners can be manipulated.
08:51 Some information can be seen, like the number of winners.
08:54 There's also a third party who's watching if there's a lottery draw.
08:57 The PCSO also submitted to the Senate the list of jackpots in the lottery
09:02 from July 2023 to January 30, 2024, including their payment of taxes.
09:08 The Senate assured that it will remain confidential.
09:11 The hearing of the lottery winners' agents continued
09:15 that they were not consulted on the lottery but their lives were affected.
09:19 They're doing trial and error.
09:21 We're the ones who are greatly affected.
09:23 As lottery agents, we're the ones who are getting money into the government,
09:29 day in and day out.
09:31 But every time you make a major decision, we're out.
09:36 We oppose e-lotto, Mr. Chair, because that will eventually wipe us out from business
09:45 and lotto outlets will become useless and irrelevant.
09:50 The use of new terminals will be used while the e-lotto is launched.
09:53 But it will take 8 to 10 months before it can be given to the 2,000 lotto outlets
09:59 that were closed first.
10:00 The legacy lotto terminals that were requested by the agents to be used first will not be used anymore.
10:05 The legacy system or terminals are actually end of life already, Mr. Chair,
10:11 and is not compatible with the Philippine lottery system.
10:15 It is no longer feasible.
10:17 The three-digit lotto game will also be given to small town lottery or STL.
10:22 This was approved by the office of the President.
10:24 Of course, you're the ones who are asking for it.
10:26 What does President BBM have to do with the lottery policy?
10:30 He's so busy with bigger problems that we have in our country,
10:33 not the three-digit game.
10:35 The PCSO will look for a solution to the loss of livelihood of lotto agents and tellers.
10:41 Before this, the senators asked the lotto ball to stop while its integrity is being investigated.
10:48 Mathematically improbable.
10:51 It's a tie. Both of them are winning.
10:55 It's a tie.
10:57 I'm very happy that they're finally investigating it.
11:01 The Senate Minority Leader said that the ball should be monitored and announce if someone won.
11:08 It's a database. It's like a database is being searched.
11:13 So the question is, who has access to the computer that has access to the database?
11:18 The lottery can be stopped while it's still under pilot testing.
11:21 For JMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales, Natutok, 24 Hours.
11:27 It's good for the 2025 elections that are being held by Comelec
11:33 after suspending the process of the votes for the People's Initiative of Chacha,
11:39 headed by Sandra Aguinaldo.
11:41 You can see our appearance now.
11:47 Your commission election is a bit funny.
11:51 So somehow, we lost our hard work that we're hoping will continue
12:02 in our acceptance of the votes.
12:07 Comelec said that they're relieved that they're not understanding the People's Initiative
12:13 after suspending the resolution 10650 that guides this initiative.
12:20 That's why they're able to participate in the preparations for the 2025 national and local elections.
12:26 In February 12, Comelec will start registering the voters
12:31 and they will declare it as the National Day of the Filipino Voters.
12:35 The registration will continue until September.
12:39 They also have activities in different parts of the country,
12:42 including in Kalayaan Islands in Palawan where there will be registration of voters.
12:48 Kalayaan is very symbolic because what we want to say and show is that
12:52 even if you're in a different part of the country, you will be able to come to the commission elections.
12:56 So that our countrymen can register.
13:02 The bidding for the election will continue.
13:06 The ballot box of the Loan Bidder of Mirror Systems,
13:10 was broken if it meets the requirements of Comelec, particularly if it's strong.
13:16 And if it won't meet the requirements of the loan bidder.
13:19 There's also a pre-bid conference for the secure electronic transmission services
13:25 that will be used for the transmission of the election results.
13:29 Comelec assured that the People's Initiative will not be held because the rules of the initiative are suspended.
13:35 They will be careful with the signatures that are in their hands,
13:39 but they also called on those behind the People's Initiative to be able to recover the signatures.
13:45 Garcia also shared that there are signatures that have been recovered
13:50 that contain almost 4,000 signatures in the province of Antique.
13:55 For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tutok 24 Horas.
14:01 The Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines or CBCP has also announced its decision
14:08 on the People's Initiative or P.I.
14:11 According to the CBCP, it is led by several public servants and not by ordinary citizens.
14:18 And even if Comelec temporarily suspended the processes related to the People's Initiative,
14:25 the Constitutional Law should not be violated.
14:30 The CBCP said that it prayed that no one would violate or violate any petition
14:36 if there is no study, discussion, and prayer.
14:40 This was also encouraged by one of the people's initiators, former Congressman Alfredo Garbim.
14:47 He said that ordinary citizens are behind the People's Initiative,
14:52 even if it is supported by some politicians.
14:55 He also believes that the people will choose what is best for the country.
15:06 Happy Thursday, Chikahan Mga Kapuso! Let's quickly chat to update you on the showbiz happenings.
15:12 It's the first time that AZ Martinez and Hill Cueva are here in the upcoming Regal Studio episode, "Made With Love."
15:23 Enjoy and comfortable are the two people in the set who also reflected in the episode that will be aired this Sunday.
15:31 [singing]
15:36 The latest song cover of the star of the new gen, Jill Inward, was also a thrill and goosebumps for the fans.
15:44 For the fans, Jill's amazing voice is like an angel from heaven.
15:47 Jack Roberto's new milestone was truly one for the books.
15:54 Prof. Jack also conquered a motorcycle challenge event in Mindanao.
15:59 Kapuso's star also arrived in his riding gear very hot.
16:03 Congratulations, Jack!
16:05 The Philippine Coast Guard suspended the ship safety certificate of the two boats that wrecked yesterday in Batangas City.
16:14 In the middle of the investigation to find out who should be responsible for the incident,
16:20 Dano Tingkung was found guilty.
16:26 This was done by Alain Rubas from one of the two boats that wrecked at Matoko Point in Batangas City yesterday.
16:32 According to the Philippine Ports Authority from the Port Management Office of Batangas,
16:37 MV Ocean Jet 6 left Batangas Port before 11 p.m. yesterday to go to Calapan Port.
16:44 Around 12.20 p.m. yesterday, they were wrecked by a water taxi, HAP and GO1, that went to Batangas Port.
16:53 Two out of four water taxi crews were injured, including the captain.
16:58 Two were injured and two were injured while riding a water taxi.
17:04 Other than that, everyone was in good condition.
17:07 The water taxi was pulled to Mindoro while I was studying if the Coast Guard District of Southern Tagalog
17:21 was able to get the two vessels.
17:23 Two more crews and five passengers were rescued, including the 105 passengers and 11 crew members of MV Ocean Jet 6.
17:33 The Coast Guard is still investigating who should be responsible for the incident.
17:38 The crews of the various sea vehicles that were involved will be called.
17:42 First, they will check if the safety protocols were followed and they will also check if the ships are in the right place.
17:53 The marina is also investigating the incident, particularly the seaworthiness of the two vessels.
17:59 The marina is conducting a safety investigation.
18:04 What are the factors that led to the incident?
18:09 While investigating, the safety certificate of the two vessels was suspended.
18:15 For GMA Integrated News, I'm Donatieng Cunco, for 24 Hours.
18:19 We are still monitoring the low pressure area where it has been raining for several days in some parts of the country.
18:31 It was last seen 290 kilometers southwest of General Santos. The possibility of it entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility is still there.
18:41 But there is a chance that it will completely dry up.
18:44 The rains will continue to bring troughs or parts of the LPA that reach our country.
18:49 According to the Matcha Weather, there will be rain tomorrow morning in Sulu Archipelago, Zamboanga Peninsula,
18:55 Sok Sargen, Caraga, Davao Region and Negros Provinces. More rain will be seen in the afternoon.
19:02 It will be almost full of rain and there will be heavy rain that could flood or flood the landslides.
19:08 The forecast is also weak compared to the previous days.
19:12 Tomorrow, there will be no rain in Luzon, except for Aurora and Quezon Provinces.
19:16 In Metro Manila, the possibility of light rain is still there.
19:20 There is no high-level gale warning so it can flood even if the sea level is low.
19:26 But be careful.
19:27 Meanwhile, this February, according to the forecast, there is a possibility of a storm that will form or enter the Par.
19:34 In this month, usually, Visayas or Mindanao are hit.
19:38 Even if there is no landfall, it can recur or sweep away from the country.
19:46 Aside from the floods and floods, a flood in Davao Region has also given a sign because of the bad weather.
19:53 It is hard to get help.
19:56 John D. Esteban of GMA Regional TV 1 in Mindanao is live.
20:01 John D.?
20:03 Mel, a large part of Davao Region is flooded and thousands of families are affected.
20:12 Many infrastructures are also damaged.
20:16 In the middle of the floods in the river in Boston, Davao Oriental, the flood suddenly appeared.
20:23 It was flooded, even its arch.
20:28 The flood was already flooded while the DPWH and City Engineering Office were still investigating its integrity.
20:35 Slowly, the flood split the house until it reached the riverbed in Bargay, Saragossa, Manay, Davao Oriental.
20:45 There, you, the scene.
20:47 A rope also fell in the area.
20:50 A house also fell in the town of Tibanban after the land was swept away by the water.
20:58 This man's motorcycle was forced to cross the road in Baganggah, Inanon.
21:05 Governor Generoso, Shamna Barangay was isolated after the rope fell in the north and south part of the town.
21:16 Residents were also affected by the flood.
21:25 While in Mati City, the road was not accessible because it was covered by soil and rocks.
21:32 According to the Office of the Civil Defense Region 11, more than 1,300 families were affected by the flood in Davao Oriental
21:40 because of the trough of the low-pressure area outside the park.
21:43 For now, it is still difficult to bring relief goods because of the damaged rope.
21:48 As of now, there are many unpassable roads.
21:51 There are additional bridges that were cut.
21:55 That is also one of the things that is making it difficult for us, especially in bringing relief.
21:59 In Davao de Oro, three people, including a 12-year-old woman, were killed after the soil was swept away in Maragusan, Davao de Oro.
22:08 The search for another man continues.
22:11 Many people in Davao City were also evacuated because of the flood due to the damage of the Davao River.
22:17 Most of the residents evacuated immediately after hearing the alarm.
22:22 In Barangay Maah, the water level rose to the point of reaching the roof of the house.
22:26 Until this morning, the water level in Davao River was still high and was at a critical level.
22:34 According to the CDRRMO, more than 8,000 people were evacuated from 15 barangays in the city.
22:40 The flood in Davao del Norte was also severe, like in the town of Carmen.
22:45 In the town of Kapalong, some residents used floaters.
22:49 And in the town of Santo Tomas, the flood was used as a tool in a school.
22:54 Some were also rescued in Panabu City.
22:57 Despite the widespread flooding, the area was already submerged in a state of calamity.
23:02 Well, here in San Isidro, Davao Oriental, at this time, it's just pouring.
23:12 Earlier this morning, the rain had already stopped and the water level of the rivers had already gradually decreased.
23:19 But around 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the heavy rain began again.
23:25 That's why the residents are still being careful.
23:27 As of now, the affected families in the entire Davao region have reached 3,500.
23:32 The most affected are Davao de Oro, followed by Davao Oriental and Davao City.
23:37 Mel.
23:38 Thank you very much, John D. Esteban of GMA Regional TV 1 Mindanao.
23:44 After being removed from the list, the Balik Pantawid Pamilya Pilipino Program of 4P
23:50 has reached almost 800,000 families.
23:52 Almost 200,000 people were left in the waiting list of the program.
23:57 DSWD explained this in the interview of Marisol Abdurrahman.
24:04 This is the long queue that the applicants of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program of 4P of DSWD need to pass.
24:12 They want to be counted in the program.
24:15 Not all of them were given even if they passed the criteria.
24:19 As of now, the number of active beneficiaries is still in the 4.2 million household.
24:24 In addition, more than 793,000 were reactivated.
24:29 We have returned to the old ones who were poor and became subsistence or survival.
24:37 That's why they were not able to enter.
24:39 Because the management saw, particularly Secretary Rex,
24:44 that not all of them are ready to exit from the program.
24:49 That's why 190,000 people are still waiting in their waiting list.
24:53 The problem according to DSWD is that the number of graduates or those who are finishing the program is low.
24:58 In fact, in the last 10 years, only 200,000 households have finished the program.
25:05 And since the program started, only 500,000 have finished.
25:10 It is expected that in September, the 4P will have a new beneficiary.
25:15 For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abdurrahman, for Tutok 24 Hours.
25:24 Dear listeners, be careful of the hopes but be careful this month.
25:30 To easily know, a group of 8 love scammers was targeted.
25:35 It is expected that they will be more active this February.
25:38 John Veneracion was on the news.
25:40 It's Love Month again.
25:45 Maybe some are pressured to find their loved ones or even a date.
25:50 Especially, it's easy online.
25:53 Not to ruin the bonding.
25:55 But the authorities are warning.
25:58 Be careful of love scammers or those who are sweet talkers.
26:02 But the real problem is not the heart but the pocket.
26:06 There will be an increase in many of the scams especially during these occasions.
26:12 Be careful of your heart.
26:14 Don't let it be tampered with.
26:16 There are love scams.
26:18 Let's make our mind decide if this is a scam or not.
26:21 Although no one is choosing their own,
26:23 be careful of those who are usually targeting women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community
26:30 using simple hi on social media even if you don't know them.
26:35 And if during Christmas, there's a scandal with 12 scams of Christmas,
26:38 this February, be careful of 8 profiles of love scammers according to Scamwatch Philippines.
26:45 Number 1 is the sad boy, sad girl.
26:47 Those who are pitiful using sad stories.
26:51 Then, the debtors.
26:53 Be careful of those who are super handsome or beautiful or the seducers who are targeting your pocket.
26:58 Don't be impressed by those who are big time or the investor
27:02 who are asking you to invest.
27:05 Don't be fooled by the service men who are just pretending to be in the military service.
27:10 Number 5 is the escort.
27:12 The escort uses a high profile picture.
27:16 The blackmailer.
27:17 They will make you fall until you trust them to give you a happy picture to blackmail you.
27:23 The slow burn is also dangerous.
27:25 They are stubborn so it seems harmless.
27:28 But in the end, it's just money.
27:30 This is the most painful because what happens here is you are really falling in love.
27:36 And number 8 is the predator.
27:38 Those who are old and are victimized by the younger ones.
27:41 The problem according to the PNP-ACG,
27:44 the victims are rare to complain.
27:46 Among the victims, the widow we met last year,
27:50 who answered her chat, was courted for two months via video call.
27:55 I fell in love with the "I love you", "Honey", "Good morning"
27:59 because my husband was a bad guy.
28:02 Like the scam watch,
28:03 she got it back from her boyfriend in order to get 1.5 million pesos within 4 months.
28:12 It's just money that's chasing me.
28:15 I have no one to fight with.
28:17 The PNP-ACG admitted that the victims are chasing them in the love scam.
28:23 So they should be careful.
28:25 Not only when they are getting closer,
28:27 but also when the hearts are aroused.
28:29 Most of the victims are foreigners who are based abroad,
28:34 according to the PNP-ACG.
28:36 You won't have a problem if you have a relationship online.
28:38 The red flag is that the victim will be a time-wise person who gave money.
28:43 For GMA Integrated News,
28:45 Juno Generation, 24 hours.
28:47 The pressure is real for Winner's War star,
28:55 Bea Alonzo, who is involved in a murder mystery series.
28:58 And Bea was also asked if her comeback project with John Lloyd Cruz is still possible.
29:03 Let's talk to Tati Bayan.
29:05 Just in 2024,
29:11 Bea Alonzo is manifesting more success in showbiz career and business,
29:14 and happiness in her personal life.
29:17 Aside from the endorsements,
29:19 Bea is also preparing for her upcoming project,
29:22 The Widow's War.
29:23 Bea, do you feel any pressure right now?
29:27 This will be a spin-off of the well-loved series Royal Blood and Widow's Web.
29:32 So it's a bit of a pressure because it's really loved by the audience.
29:37 I'm doing my homework, I'm creating a character background, a character graph.
29:41 But I know that Carla and I will meet because our characters are supposed to be best friends.
29:47 Bea is also looking forward to bonding her Widow's War co-star, Carla Abellana,
29:52 before she fights in the heavy scenes.
29:56 On this one, there are a lot of plots, plots within the plots.
30:00 So I'm very excited that each character has a plot that people will follow.
30:08 Not just the main character.
30:10 Bea is also flattered that her iconic scene in the movie One More Chance
30:14 will be made into a musical play.
30:17 I have always been a fan of musicals.
30:20 Whether it's here in the Philippines or I fly to other countries to watch Broadway and West End musicals.
30:27 I'm really, really curious to see how they're going to do it.
30:31 And especially, there's still music by Ben & Ben.
30:34 I'm also a fan of Ben & Ben.
30:36 Bea and John Lloyd also had a mini reunion on Mr. M's birthday.
30:42 Is it possible that the comeback project of Bea and John Lloyd will be finalized?
30:48 I hope one day we will really give time and we will give each other a chance.
30:54 We also talked about the preparation of Bea and her fiancƩ Dominic Roque for their upcoming wedding.
31:00 But as of the moment, the two are still busy with their own work.
31:05 He's also very busy just like me.
31:07 He's focusing on his health also.
31:10 He plays tennis almost everyday.
31:12 I like how self-assured he is and that he's not insecure as a guy.
31:18 Katatibayan updated on Showbiz Happenings.
31:22 Small plastic was found on the fish from their fishing boat in Mindanao.
31:30 Because it's dangerous for health and livelihood.
31:33 The D.N.R. is helping.
31:35 You know, with the help of Mark Salazar.
31:41 The trash you threw will also be returned to you.
31:44 That's true according to the study of DOST National Research Council of the Philippines or NRCP.
31:51 Based on the results of their fish,
31:54 particularly fish from different fishing boats in Mindanao,
31:58 60% of the sample particles they got from the fish were found to have a concentration of microplastic.
32:07 What is microplastic?
32:09 When a big plastic, for example, degrades or gets rotten,
32:13 it produces small particles.
32:16 That's what we call microplastic.
32:18 When they're heated by the sun, they get crushed.
32:21 They don't get rotten.
32:22 They just get smaller.
32:24 According to experts, microplastics are a serious threat to health, livelihood, and safety.
32:30 Microplastics have a bigger effect on smaller organisms.
32:36 If small fish are affected and can't grow because of microplastics,
32:41 what will happen?
32:42 What will we do?
32:44 We still need to study the overall impact on human health.
32:49 And those chemicals are what produces toxins.
32:52 The plastics are toxic to the fish and they choke our coral reefs.
33:00 This is where our fish's livelihood comes from.
33:06 And the fish we eat every day, our fish eat microplastics.
33:13 It's not difficult to explain how eating from the sea became throwing garbage on the ground.
33:19 For example, you threw a plastic sachet on the street.
33:23 Just follow the flow of the sachet to the canal and then to the fish tank.
33:29 It continues until it reaches the sea.
33:32 But the number we're talking about is 140 million plastic sachets thrown into the sea.
33:40 Every day, 61,000 metric tons of solid waste is produced by the country.
33:46 Over 140 million plastic sachets are thrown into the sea.
33:50 It's really hard to get rid of them in our rivers and of course, eventually, in the ocean.
33:57 It was said in recent studies that the Philippines is leading when it comes to polluting the ocean.
34:04 According to DNR, the time to pass on to corporations is to collect the plastic waste they produced.
34:12 It should be by 2028, 80% of the plastic they produce is also collected.
34:18 We are now implementing the Extended Producers Responsibility Law.
34:22 What does that mean?
34:24 That means that the burden of collecting plastic waste shifts to the corporations that produce plastic packaging.
34:35 If it cannot be addressed immediately...
34:38 Studies say that by 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean.
34:44 That's alarming, right? The projection.
34:46 For GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar, for 24 Hours.
34:52 And we are now updated on the explosion in Pagawa, Numanon, Paputok, in Cabuyaw, Laguna,
34:58 where two confirmed victims were killed.
35:01 There are also those in critical condition and Rafi Tima was shot there live.
35:06 Rafi.
35:07 Vicky, at the moment, this incident is being processed here in Barangay Bigaa, Cabuyaw, Laguna.
35:15 The truth is, the two bodies of the two victims are still here.
35:19 The relatives of the victims will also arrive after learning about this incident.
35:24 At 4 p.m., when the incident of the Librella Fireworks was reported to BFP Cabuyaw,
35:29 according to the captain of Barangay Bigaa, the fire started at 3 p.m.
35:34 In a video that was taken at the beginning of the fire,
35:37 you can see the smoky area that was followed by a strong explosion.
35:41 This Pagawa has been in operation for a long time.
35:43 According to the mayor of Cabuyaw and the captain of Barangay, this is permitted.
35:48 Although there are residential areas in this area,
35:50 this Pagawa has been in operation for a long time, that's why it was permitted.
35:54 But this is not the first time that there was a fire in this Pagawa,
35:58 but there was a casualty just recently.
36:00 Just a while ago, Mayor Dennis Ain came here and promised to answer the Pagawa City Hall
36:07 on the treatment of the injured.
36:09 Aside from the two confirmed victims, there were six injured in the incident.
36:14 Three of them were in critical condition after being burned to the body.
36:18 Here is the statement of the captain of Barangay Bigaa.
36:21 The three patients were in the PGH.
36:31 They were already intubated.
36:33 They were in 50/50 condition.
36:37 What about the other three?
36:39 The three were in the Global Hospital and will be transferred to East Avenue
36:46 because they cannot accommodate the patients in Global Hospital.
36:49 The other two were in the Cabuyaw Hospital and are now okay.
36:52 Vicky, the scene of the crime operatives are still here in the area.
37:02 In fact, they are still calling for the firefighters because there is still smoke in the area.
37:09 That's why the BFPF is still calling for the firefighters.
37:12 That's the latest from Barangay Bigaa.
37:14 Vicky?
37:15 Thank you very much, Rafi Tima.

38:33 Even Capuso Prime Time King Ding Dong Dantes,
38:35 who was born as the adult version of Ton-Ton in the movie,
38:39 couldn't help but cry.
38:41 Did you cry a little bit or did you?
38:43 Not just a little bit.
38:44 Yeah, from middle to the end.
38:47 It took a little bit of time to process, especially the ending.
38:52 Even though I already know the story.
38:54 Such a beautiful film.
38:56 It's so touching.
38:59 It brings back so many childhood memories.

39:49 Meanwhile, MIFF's multimedia star Alden Richards also flew to LA today

40:05 I'm excited because this is the first for the Philippines.
40:09 It's great that there are a lot of Kapuso stars who became part of this festival.
40:14 It's really a great opportunity.
40:18 I call it alignment of stars.
40:22 Almost all of them.
40:24 This is what we want, that we are all united.
40:26 Aside from attending the screening, Q&A and awards night, Alden will make his Hollywood debut.
40:34 It's really my dream to be part of an international production and to be part of a project made in Hollywood.
