00:00 Now that the franchise consolidation of Jeepneys is on its deadline,
00:04 how will the journey of traditional Jeepneys start tomorrow?
00:08 We will talk about that with LTIFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadis III.
00:13 Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali, June Veneration and Connie Sison, Chairman.
00:19 Good afternoon to you, Ma'am Connie and Rafi. Thank you for your gift.
00:26 No, Rafi is not here today. He is in Masinlok, Balit.
00:30 June, I'm sorry. June, I was given the chance to be a guest in your program.
00:33 Yes, Chairman. Good morning to you. What is the latest number of consolidated units?
00:40 The latest as of two days ago is we have 78.33 percent.
00:46 That's about translated to 150,179 units that have consolidated in the whole Philippines.
00:54 It is continuously increasing here in NCR.
00:57 Those who do not want to consolidate or join the modernization program of the government,
01:06 they waited for the last minute hoping that there will be an extension.
01:11 When they noticed that the government is not willing,
01:15 they have already started the industry consolidation,
01:18 which is the first phase of the modernization program.
01:21 It has already been pursued by regional offices, specifically in NCR.
01:27 So we expect the number to increase until about 9 o'clock tonight.
01:32 I see. But in the routes, can we say that the consolidation is still low?
01:36 The route consolidation as of April 23 is 73.71 percent.
01:44 That's a good number considering that in one route, there are not only jeeps traveling,
01:51 there are buses, UVs, taxis, and tricycles. So it is not really disappearing.
01:57 And Ma'am Connie, the areas that we see that might have problems,
02:03 we have already invited the jeepney operators of the adjacent route.
02:09 That's what we call the rescue route. If they have excess jeepneys,
02:14 they can traverse those routes using a special permit issued by the LTFRB.
02:20 Chairman, this is Jun.
02:22 Tomorrow, how will the LTFRB and DOTR system be for those who will not reach the deadline today?
02:30 There is really no plan to consolidate, Chairman.
02:34 Sir Jun, what we are doing now is we are preparing the notices for them.
02:42 We will explain them as part of the due process of our law
02:48 on why their franchise should not be removed.
02:52 Technically, Jun, they are already in the courtroom.
02:56 But as a process by the law, we will explain them first.
03:00 After one week, we will issue orders that those who did not explain or did not accept the explanation,
03:10 we can arrest them.
03:14 And the penalty is one year suspension for the driver,
03:18 and the fine is P50,000 for the vehicle that we impound.
03:24 So Chairman, technically, they will already have a courtroom if they are still in the courtroom tomorrow.
03:29 They will be arrested.
03:30 Technically, they are already in the courtroom because they did not comply.
03:34 But we will still give them a chance to explain.
03:39 This is a process according to the Public Service Act that we do not want to impose a fine on the drivers.
03:46 Thank you very much, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadis III.
03:50 Thank you very much and long live to you.
03:56 A car crashed into Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City this morning, according to witnesses.
04:02 The car was driving towards the pavement of the MRT 7 and collided with one of the posts.
04:09 The driver immediately got out and was asked if he was injured.
04:15 We asked the driver if he was sleeping while driving.
04:19 The ambulance arrived to examine the driver.
04:23 The driver did not give an explanation because his family might be worried.
04:28 But he will be sent to the work place of the accident.
04:32 According to the MMDA, he responded to the accident.
04:35 The driver was saved because of the airbag of his car.
04:39 The road was slightly closed due to the incident.
04:42 Two controversial languages in the country were included in an exhibit in the Senate.
04:49 The language was created by the Negroes Occidental and Hatang Cayi,
04:56 the remontados in Tanay Rizal and General Nacar, Quezon.
05:00 According to the Commission, the Filipino Language Commissioner, Arthur Casanova,
05:05 the exhibit was intended to provide information about the languages and the public's ignorance.
05:12 Senate President Pro Tempore, Loren Lagarda, who is also the Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Culture and the Arts,
05:18 encouraged government agencies to look into the programs that will be held on the languages and culture of indigenous people.
05:26 The neighbors in India are ashamed.
05:35 An eight-month-old baby was found in the middle of a roof in the second floor.
05:41 The baby was dropped from the fourth floor while her mother was with her.
05:46 Some residents held the baby down, even though she fell.
05:51 Some men tried to find a way to reach the baby.
05:55 A bigger cloth was replaced.
05:58 A man jumped on the railing while he was supported by other men.
06:04 He tried to stop the baby but he was caught.
06:07 Finally, the baby was saved.
06:10 She was taken to the hospital and she was given a head injection and some stitches.
06:16 But now, her condition is better.
06:18 We know that we are not the only ones affected by the heat.
06:26 Our pets are also affected.
06:28 Yes, that's why we always remember to keep them hydrated with water.
06:33 And if you don't want to be judged by the judgemental look,
06:37 don't forget to take your favorite air conditioner with you.
06:41 Oh, please.
06:42 Instead of saying bad words,
06:46 "Toby is just a cute dog from Bulacan."
06:50 "What if Fur Mommy killed the AC?"
06:54 "Cutey Shih Tzu is always on during her sleep."
06:58 "Because of the air conditioner."
07:00 "Because Crystal Dispo is a work-from-home owner."
07:03 "But because the air conditioner was turned off during her work, the AC was turned off."
07:08 "Toby's reaction to the hits of netizens."
07:12 "The video has more than 400,000 views."
07:16 "There."
07:18 "Trending!"
07:20 See? If the hair is that thick,
07:23 you'll be like, "Hmm, huh?"
07:26 Yes.
07:27 And she has a different opinion.
07:29 She thinks it's bad.
07:30 "What if the AC is going to kill me?"
07:32 "The electric bill is trending!"
07:35 That's all.
07:36 That's what the owner is thinking.
07:39 But Shih Tzu is handsome.
07:41 "There. Fur Mommy is rich."
07:44 That's why she's called Fur Baby.
07:45 She needs to have a baby.
07:46 There.
