00:01 Their version of the decision of the amendment to their economic provisions of the 1987 Constitution was presented in the House of Representatives.

00:09 According to House Majority Leader Manix Dalipe and Senior Deputy Speaker Aurelio Gonzalez Jr.,

00:15 that is the resolution of both houses number 7, which is the same content as the resolution of both houses 6 in the Senate.

00:23 Three provisions will be removed from the existing unless otherwise provided by law to facilitate the expansion of the distances

00:31 when it comes to the sectors of public utilities, basic educational institutions, and advertising.

00:38 At present, the House is studying to help as a committee of the whole to speed up the process.

00:44 This means that all congressmen will be able to visit the RBH 7 and ask the invited resource person.

00:55 More than 7,000 hectares of rice fields are affected by the decrease in the water level in the Pantabangan Dam in Nueva Ecija.

01:04 In some places in Visayas and Mindanao, the rationing of water is being carried out due to the lack of supply.

01:11 Let's see.

01:13 [Music]

01:16 A number of residents in Calarian, Zamboanga City, are lining up to get water from the well of a private house.

01:25 This is due to the lack of water in Malagutay, where they have to buy water every night.

01:33 They are bringing water to the well because the water is being tormented in Malagutay.

01:38 The rationing of water in more than 30 barangays is being carried out due to the lack of supply.

01:44 Zamboanga City Water District is now in charge of lowering the water level in the Lunsot Diversion Well.

01:52 In terms of water supply, it is from worse to worse.

01:56 They plan to build five production wells this year to have sufficient water supply.

02:02 In Talisay City, Cebu, last month, the rationing of water in several barangays started.

02:09 In Barangay Tapul, the LGU provided a water bladder that can hold 10,000 liters of water.

02:17 This week, it was used.

02:20 What we have done is we have coordinated with barangays that have water problems.

02:23 These are usually mountain barangays that have designated areas where they can put water tanks.

02:31 In Talisay City, Negros Occidental, they stopped planting because the plants are dying due to the drought.

02:41 The Department of Agriculture is studying Region 6 to do cloud seeding.

02:47 Yes, we can do that. It is safe and expensive.

02:51 DA Region 6 is also recommending the use of solar-powered irrigation systems as an alternative water source.

02:59 In the long term, if more people will use it, especially in the private sector, we can save more.

03:07 The water level in Pantabangan Dam also decreased.

03:10 The 24 towns in Nueva Ecija and the provinces in Tarlac, Bulacan, and Pampanga were the first to get water.

03:19 From 201.68 meters above sea level, which was the water level there on December 1, 2023, it went down to 188.64 meters above sea level today.

03:33 The water was a big blow to the farmers.

03:37 The expected 150 cabanas of rice that were harvested only yielded half of the fruit.

03:43 I hope we will have more water so we can irrigate more.

03:52 Our vulnerable area or the affected area is 50,550.

03:58 But out of that 50,000, only 7,000 are not irrigated.

04:04 According to NIA, the farmers in Nueva Ecija have 6,678 hectares of land, 914 hectares in Tarlac, and 99 hectares in Bulacan.

04:16 But that's only a small percentage due to the interventions.

04:20 The water will be given to the farmers until April 30, while the water level in the dam is still far from critical level.

04:30 For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, your witness.

04:35 Some public schools in San Pedro, Laguna were suspended due to the explosion of bomb threats.

04:42 According to the investigation, the schools were also hit by a bomb.

04:47 The bomb threats were followed by various studies and agencies last week, which were also hit by bombs.

04:55 PNP Chief Police General Benjamin Acorda Jr. said that the PNP's investigation into the repeated bomb threats is ongoing.

05:03 The problem is online and it's repeated. We are getting the same dead end.

05:11 We are helping other countries. But what is important is how we respond to it.

05:18 Police officers are free to use their private accounts as long as the police won't be embarrassed.

05:25 According to PNP Chief Benjamin Acorda Jr.,

05:28 the AFP said that it is prohibited to use an app on gadgets connected to the military network due to cyber security risks.

05:37 According to Acorda, they are studying the security issue mentioned by the AFP.

05:44 The Taklobo, which was recovered in Balabac, Palawan, worth more than 8 million pesos,

05:50 was found dead in a barrel of Taklobo by Intel report in its town on February 14.

05:58 It is now under the custody of the barangay.

06:01 Under the Philippine Fisheries Code, Taklobo are prohibited from being retrieved, which is dangerous to the entire country.

06:08 For GMA Integrated News, Oscar Oyde, your witness.

06:13 Apologies to the victims. A headless body was found in Carmona, Cavite.

06:20 It was wrapped in a comforter but the victim was not wearing a suit.

06:24 His body was full of gauze and wet. His hands were also stripped due to the gauze.

06:31 According to the Carmona Police, the fingerprints and dragon tattoo on the man's chest are the only evidence to identify him.

06:38 They are being brought to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission due to the possibility of being a foreign victim.

06:46 According to the PAOCC and PNP from January to November 2023,

06:52 more than 60 bodies of foreign-looking individuals were found in Central Luzon and Calarbar Zone.

07:01 The police admitted that they did not get evidence in the crime scene that will be attributed to Direct Jade Castro for the murder of a modern jeep in Catanawan, Quezon.

07:11 The arrest was based on testimonies.

07:14 Witness, Jonathan Andal.

07:16 The arrest of Direct Jade Castro and three others,

07:24 who were accused of burning a modern jeep in Catanawan, Quezon on January 31, 2021, was a direct result of the camera's recording of the crime scene.

07:32 They questioned the police's assessment of the arrest as a hot pursuit operation that does not require an arrest warrant.

07:39 The director and his associates were not immediately arrested when they first went to a resort.

07:45 When you went to the suspects, you took pictures, then you went back to the police station,

07:55 showed it to the witnesses, then you went back to invite.

08:01 Do you think this is considered a hot pursuit operation or not?

08:07 It will be considered, sir.

08:09 No. It's already cut off because if it's a hot pursuit, the first person you engaged in,

08:17 if you have personal knowledge and you strongly believe that these are the suspects, you will be immediately arrested.

08:25 So for me, you made an illegal arrest.

08:32 The police also admitted that they did not get evidence in the crime scene that Castro will be involved in the burn.

08:39 They based the arrest on the testimony of passengers who knew the suspects

08:44 that there was no cover on the face of the modern jeep.

08:47 They were in front of the witness, we just arrested them there.

08:52 When you brought them to the station, were there only four of us?

08:57 Or do we have other suspects?

09:00 There were only four, sir.

09:02 There should be other suspects.

09:04 That's what I'm saying. And we didn't do it.

09:07 And the motive that the police saw was based on the posts of the director online.

09:12 It was published that this Jai Castro, he doesn't support the modernization of the jeep.

09:20 Director Castro was defended by his mother and the members of the Director's Guild of the Philippines.

09:25 The four of them went to the towns where the festivals are held.

09:34 They don't have a record of violence.

09:38 In fact, Jade, as a mother, he's a very thoughtful and sweet person.

09:45 She was laughing at the beginning, "What? You're just pretending?"

09:49 They were far away and they were arrested.

09:53 So we were thinking, mistaken identity.

09:57 Castro's video was leaked while watching the preparations for the festival in Mulanay, Quezon.

10:02 He watched the hours when the modern jeepney in Catanawan was on fire.

10:06 Jade likes to immerse herself. She always wants to have a new experience.

10:11 That's why he goes to these festivals.

10:13 Castro was in prison in Catanawan Police Station for two weeks.

10:16 And three people were arrested because of the complaint of "Destructive Arson."

10:20 For GMA Integrated News, Jonathan Nandal, your news.

10:24 The license of the motorist who was caught in the car was suspended.

10:30 The man who lives there is a man who was caught in Lipa City, Batangas.

10:37 Our news.

10:38 CCTV captured the conversation of these four men in an establishment in Lipa City, Batangas.

10:47 Later, when two men left in black and red, the man in a brown T-shirt suddenly ran away.

10:55 The 22-year-old victim ran to the bathroom but was still chased by the suspect and the man who was followed.

11:02 A few minutes later, the man in black came back and was caught while the man in the bathroom was coming out.

11:09 It seemed nothing happened.

11:11 It was morning when the crime was reported to the police.

11:14 Based on the investigation, the men who were seen in the video were working in a meat shop

11:19 and were drinking before the incident.

11:22 The suspect and the other two men also left the crime scene after the crime.

11:26 We are not yet sure what the possible motive of the suspect is.

11:32 According to the boss of the employees, their relationship is good.

11:41 The suspect and the other two men were continuously being chased.

11:44 It's up to you.

11:46 Even if you don't apologize for what you did,

11:51 I hope you will not doubt what you did.

11:54 The employer of the victims refused to give a statement on the incident.

11:58 GMI Regional TV reported that the victim's relative was able to get a statement.

12:05 The Land Transportation Office suspended the license of the SUV driver who was involved in the road rage incident in Subic, Zambales.

12:13 The SUV was caught crashing into a parked car on the side of the road.

12:17 A woman was also almost hit by the car.

12:29 Based on the investigation, the 70-year-old retired judge was driving the car

12:33 with his assistant when the car suddenly overtakes their SUV.
