00:00 Another case of violence against animals.
00:03 Two sets of dogs were cut by a dog in Legaspi City, Albay.
00:08 According to the owner of the two sets,
00:10 on March 20, he saw two dogs, Luna and Bonbon, bleeding,
00:14 while tied to the second floor of their rented house.
00:18 One dog was cut by Luna while the other was cut by Bonbon.
00:23 According to the owner of the dogs,
00:25 they were just about to enter the window behind the incident.
00:29 He saw blood and leaves inside his son's room.
00:33 They are now plotting the incident in the barangay
00:36 and are hoping to catch the one behind the incident.
00:40 Two POV drivers tested positive for the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange.
00:48 More than 100,000 passengers have been infected with PITX.
00:52 And the witness is Katrina Son.
00:55 Katrina?
00:57 [Music]
01:00 Pia, it's still Sunday, but we have a few countrymen
01:04 who are going home to their provinces.
01:07 They had a hard time getting a ticket here in the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange or PITX.
01:12 [Music]
01:16 It's only 9 in the morning and Tess Mendoza is already at PITX.
01:20 She's on her way to Cali, where she'll be returning to Camarines Sur early.
01:24 But she had a hard time getting a ticket for the air-conditioned bus.
01:28 It's full. It's full.
01:30 That's why.
01:31 That's why. Even if it's 7pm, even if we have to wait, I'll just get it.
01:36 Rowena Tagines, on the other hand,
01:38 hasn't gotten a ticket for the trip to Daet.
01:41 Her mother was just stopped by the dispatcher because she's a senior citizen.
01:46 It's hard to get tickets now.
01:49 So, what happened is, we were just talking because my mother is a senior citizen.
01:53 We were just talking because she's a senior citizen.
01:55 Most of the people who are going home now,
01:58 they really went to PITX to make sure that they'll get a ticket.
02:03 Based on the guidance of PITX, the trips are almost fully booked.
02:08 That's why it's better to get a ticket early or to reserve tickets early.
02:15 But they also helped the stakeholders early to make sure that the cars have adequate supply.
02:22 We have additional buses on standby.
02:25 And LTFRB promised that they'll issue special permits if necessary.
02:28 We also have standby units.
02:30 But if they buy tickets at the last minute,
02:33 we'll have to wait a little bit.
02:35 So, I hope they'll extend their patience.
02:37 LTO, LTFRB, MMDA, PNP, and DICT also went around this morning to see if PITX is ready.
02:46 Random drug testing was also conducted on 123 drivers.
02:50 Two of them tested positive for the confirmatory test.
02:54 Besides, LTO also conducted a road worthiness test
02:58 to make sure that passengers can be transported to their destination.
03:02 They also reminded travelers that smart and bladed weapons are prohibited,
03:07 things that smell bad, and things that can quickly get scratched.
03:12 Some bus terminals in Manila and TAFT in Pasay City
03:16 also forced passengers to travel today.
03:19 [music]
03:24 PIA, as of 9 p.m. earlier,
03:27 more than 127,000 passengers arrived here at PITX.
03:33 And live from PITX, for JMAI Integrated News, I'm Katrina Sun, your witness.

03:40 Seventeen people were on the way to leave a van that was hit by a truck in Antipas, Cotabato.
03:46 Witness James Paul Luyap of Jemai Regional TV, One Mindanao.
03:52 [music]
03:54 Those bodies were burned on the road in Antipas, Cotabato.
03:59 The victims were in a burned van after a dump truck collided.
04:04 According to the Antipas Police, the truck lost the brakes and collided with the van,
04:11 which was more than 50 meters away.
04:13 The van then collided.
04:16 According to the Antipas Police Chief, Captain Godofredo Tupas II,
04:20 17 people were killed.
04:22 The investigation is ongoing.
04:24 A woman's body was found on the side of the boarding house
04:27 and was taken care of by residents of Cagayan de Oro City.
04:31 They also heard gunshots.
04:33 The victim and 37-year-old landlady were at the boarding house,
04:38 according to the victim's daughter.
04:40 Last night at 6 p.m., a man asked if there was a vacant room.
04:45 We were looking for a vacant room.
04:47 We saw a man who was on the roof.
04:49 When we got there, he was still on the roof.
04:52 He was wearing a vest.
04:54 He followed my father.
04:56 He was wearing a vest.
04:58 He said he was not there.
05:00 He said he was the first one to leave the house.
05:03 When he was looking for a vacant room, he said,
05:05 "Daddy, someone died."
05:07 He followed him and he was the last one to leave the house.
05:09 When he was leaving, he was very angry.
05:11 He said, "Who did this? Mommy did this."
05:13 According to the police, the victim's cellphone was also tapped.
05:17 One of the motives is the personal grudge.
05:20 The police also have persons of interest.
05:23 A 28-year-old man was arrested after fighting with the police in Lemery, Batangas.
05:29 According to the police, he was about to be arrested by the warrant
05:33 for the robbery when the suspect fired a gun.
05:37 The suspect was talking to his friend who surrendered.
05:41 He even stabbed his friend.
05:43 The suspect was shot five times in the chest.

05:55 that took place in the Seria ng Nakawan in some parts of Metro Manila, Rizal and Batangas.
06:00 He was also one of the most wanted in Pasig City.
06:03 For GMA Integrated News, James Paulo Yap and GMA Regional TV 1 Mindanao, your witness.
06:10 Some passengers were stranded at Manila North Port Terminal because their trip was canceled.
06:16 The motorists will have a big-time all-prize hike tomorrow.
06:20 Witness, Marisol Lobderman.
06:22 When Marti Santo entered, the new hospital for the motorists will be opened at the same time.
06:30 The price of gasoline is 2 pesos and 20 centavos per liter.
06:34 1 peso and 40 centavos per liter of diesel and 1 peso and 30 centavos per liter of kerosene.
06:41 It's just like that, up and down, up and down.
06:44 I hope it will go down.
06:45 It will make the drivers heavier.
06:48 So, are you going to park now or not?
06:51 No, I'm going to park. I don't have gas.
06:53 It's cheaper now.
06:55 It's cheaper now. If you don't have gas, you can stay at home.
07:00 Tomorrow, the peak of traffic congestion in the South Luzon Expressway is expected.
07:05 Earlier this afternoon, traffic in Eslex was fast from Alabang to Santo Tomas, Batangas.
07:11 The crowd in Leia Terminal 3 is increasing, where the DOTR and MIAA officials are going around.
07:19 According to the Transportation Department,
07:21 Immigration counters will be added while seats in the arrival section will be reduced
07:26 to reduce the number of passengers due to the tightness of the road.
07:30 Traffic to Leia 3 will also be fixed, which requires direct access from the Skyway.
07:35 Secretary Jaime Bautista is talking to those who are in favor of Leia.
07:40 Maybe if possible, not too many people are in favor.
07:45 Normally, one person will be in favor, but we have ten family members in favor
07:54 so that there will not be congestion here at the airport.
07:58 At Manila North Port Terminal, J-Pen and Well-V went early.
08:03 The decision was worth it because they already had a ride earlier,
08:06 even though their trip was scheduled for March 28.
08:09 It's my favor because our family members will see it earlier.
08:13 They are not in favor of Sir Julie Bituon and his five children.
08:16 Even though they are in the pier, it's still early.
08:19 The trip was scheduled for the morning of the canceled date.
08:22 They will leave on Friday.
08:25 It's a disaster because their budget is just enough.
08:28 I'm worried about my children and my money is just enough.
08:33 Our budget is only for two days.
08:36 You can have a 100% refund or rebooking, but the trip is still March 29.
08:42 According to the Philippine Ports Authority's Shipping Company.
08:47 If there is no option, they can reroute.
08:53 The PPA is expecting a rise in passengers by tomorrow.
08:57 Since yesterday, there are 500,000 passengers here,
09:01 which is possible to exceed 2 million by March 31.
09:06 A reminder to passengers, do not bring prohibited items such as
09:12 matches, matches, and other items.
09:14 In Batangas Ports, it is also strictly prohibited to bring chicken and pork products
09:19 as a precaution against the ASF.
09:22 The security of the port is also strictly strict.
09:25 Even though the passengers are expected to bring their luggage by tomorrow afternoon.
09:30 It is estimated to reach 30,000 yen per day.
09:33 They also added ticketing booths.
09:35 To make the trip faster, the marina ordered the ships to expand their schedule.
09:40 For GMA Integrated News, Marisol Abdurrahman is your witness.
09:47 According to the government's rules,
09:50 the government's employees are allowed to enter the port on Wednesday, March 27.
09:56 According to the regulations, this is to give the government employees enough time
10:00 to travel for the Holy Week.
10:02 However, the agencies will continue to operate
10:05 in the field of health services, disaster response, and other agencies.
10:11 It depends on the employers if they will also suspend their work in private companies.
10:18 It has reached the 400th day since the country had a pertussis or whooping cough.
10:25 According to the DOH, from January to March 10, 35 people have already recovered.
10:29 According to the DOH, this is more than the 23 cases of the past year.
10:36 One of the reasons for this is the lack of vaccination.
10:40 The DOH is now promoting catch-up immunization
10:43 to give the children who missed their scheduled time a chance to get the vaccine they need.
10:49 The DOH also reminds those who will go on vacation this Holy Week
10:53 to be extra careful so that the children will not get sick.
