00:00Good morning. Here are the first news brought to you by GMA Integrated News.

00:20The National Security Council has not monitored any threats from China.

00:25This is based on Senator Aimee Marcos' statement that there are hypersonic missiles flying over China

00:30targeting 25 places in the Philippines.

00:33The hypersonic missiles are capable of flying five times faster than the speed of sound

00:39which is why it is difficult or impossible to be blocked by air defense systems.

00:43The NSC will consult with the Senator to get additional details.

00:48The Armed Forces of the Philippines will do the same.

00:52The Department of National Defense has not commented

00:55because they have not seen or read the plans of the Senator.

01:00According to the maritime law expert, Attorney Jay Batong Bacal,

01:04the Senator's statements are based on speculation and no factual basis

01:08aside from the fact that he has access to China's war plans.

01:13He asked Senator Marcos, but he did not give details as to who is his source.

01:19I just saw a report and it looks reliable because it targets EDCA sites.

01:29GMA Integrated News continues to get the statement of the Chinese Embassy and Department of Foreign Affairs about this.

01:36This Tuesday, the Philippine authorities in China discussed the bilateral consultation mechanism

01:42and filed a case to ease tensions in the West Philippine Sea.

01:46Senator Anancy Binay walked out in the midst of Senator Alan Peter Cayetano's defeat

01:52regarding the construction of the new Senate building.

01:56You're not listening to the problem.

01:57That's right Mr. Chairman. You don't know how to read.

02:0121 became 23.

02:03I didn't say that 23 came from them.

02:06Make your point and then move on.

02:08My point is...

02:09Move on because you're out of order.

02:10On your end, DPWH, does the amount of P23 billion exist in your documents?

02:17There is none, Mr. Chairman.

02:18Thank you.

02:19Sorry, sorry.

02:20There is none.

02:21The whole of Canada exists.

02:24Let's finish this properly.

02:26This is the Senate of the Philippines, not a market.

02:30Mr. Cayetano and Mr. Binay have already discussed the cost of the new Senate building.

02:35According to Mr. Binay, P21.7 billion was spent on the construction of the building.

02:40As for Mr. Cayetano's gate, P23 billion is the total cost

02:46if P1.6 billion of land is included.

02:50Mr. Binay's answer is that DPWH did not contribute to the purchase of land

02:55because only the building was contracted to them.

02:59Before Mr. Binay walked out,

03:00Mr. Binay said that the boundary issue of Taguig and Makati City was a result of Mr. Cayetano's defeat.

03:07Mr. Cayetano is leading in Taguig while Mr. Binay is leading in Makati City.

03:13This is Makati and Taguig.

03:15You said that someone is stabbing you in the back.

03:17Then you should be charged with attempted murder.

03:19I will tell you later who is stabbing me.

03:22But it's not me.

03:23I'm not saying that it's you.

03:25How can you say in the media that this has something to do with Taguig and Makati City

03:30and then you say that someone is stabbing you in the back?

03:32But did I say that Alan Peter Cayetano is stabbing me?

03:36Didn't they say that if you react like that, you might be guilty?

03:40Your name is Lourdes, not Marites.

03:44So let's fix this. It's embarrassing.

03:47Not yet.

03:50When will the new Senate building, which has been delayed for more than 800 days, be completed?

03:56Next, the contractor and the Senate coordinating team will be called to explain the expenses of the project.

04:05Next, let's talk about the Olympics.

04:10Filipino athletes who will play in the 2024 Paris Olympics have been added.

04:15John Acabang-Tolentino has already qualified for the 110-meter hurdles event.

04:20He holds the national record of 13.37 seconds in the event.

04:26Another Paris-bound, Warren Hoffman, has qualified for the 400-meter hurdle event.

04:32He holds the national record of 55.72 seconds.

04:37According to the Philippine Olympic Committee,

04:39there are already 22 Filipino athletes who will play in the Olympics that will start on July 26.

04:45Comilac will also erase the fingerprints of suspended Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo

04:50for their plan to file a case against the mayor.

04:53Aside from the fingerprints of Mayor Guo against Guo Huaping,

04:57which is his true identity,

04:59the fingerprints of the mayor's sister also matched with a Chinese national.

05:03We have the first news, Sandra Aguinaldo.

05:08Where is Alice Leal Guo?

05:11The same name, date and place of birth of suspended Bamban Mayor Alice Guo,

05:18but with a different face based on the record of the National Bureau of Investigation or NBI.

05:23Its address is in Quezon City, in the NBI clearance,

05:27but after a few weeks of searching, it was still not found.

05:31That's why the NBI offered P50,000.

05:35Let's ask, why did you do that? Who gave you the order?

05:39Maybe someone instructed him to get a clearance,

05:44use this, Alice Guo, born on July 12, 1986,

05:51you were born in Tabla.

05:53I will pay you P20,000, take it.

05:56For whatever purpose, whatever they want.

06:00It is not clear if Alice Leal Guo of Quezon City is related to Mayor Guo.

06:06But Senator Riza Ontiveros said that

06:09it is possible that Mayor Guo took the identity of Alice Leal Guo of Quezon City.

06:14Based on the investigation of the NBI, the fingerprints of the two are different.

06:19The NBI first confirmed that the fingerprints of Mayor Guo and Guo Huaping match,

06:26which is the true identity.

06:28According to Comilec, it will also be compared by their fingerprint expert.

06:33Comilec has its own handwriting and fingerprint experts.

06:36If the fingerprint of Guo Huaping and Guo Huaping is the same,

06:42we can make a conclusion about that.

06:45Comilec asked the NBI to provide them with findings

06:49on the case of violation of the Omnibus Election Code,

06:52which is possible that they are an enemy of Guo.

06:55This has something to do with Guo's possible deception

06:58in his Certificate of Candidacy when he was elected mayor.

07:02Mayor Guo's brother, Wesley Leal Guo,

07:05matched the fingerprint of Guo Xiangdian,

07:08who arrived in the Philippines from Fujian, China,

07:11in 1999 using a Chinese passport.

07:14This is based on the investigation of the NBI, according to Senator Nguyen Gatchalian.

07:18This is just a demonstration that the Guo family abused the late registration process

07:24to make them a Filipino.

07:26According to Mayor Guo's lawyer,

07:28it is not yet official that the NBI will let them know the fingerprint findings.

07:33He will let his client know the reaction to this.

07:37But if there is a case of violation of the law,

07:40they will investigate thoroughly if the documents are true.

07:44This is the first news.

07:46Sandra Aguinaldo for GMA Integrated News.

07:51We still have time for the upcoming opening of the class.

07:55Let's talk about some issues.

07:57Let's welcome the new Secretary of the Department of Education,

08:01Senator Sonny Angara.

08:03Good morning to all of you.

08:04Secretary Angara.

08:06Good morning to our listeners,

08:10especially our students and teachers and parents.

08:14I'm sorry that I couldn't go there.

08:18We're all expecting you here.

08:24Anyway, Senator, Secretary,

08:26first of all, we understand that you have two terms in the Senate

08:30and you're no longer up for re-election.

08:33But is this the main reason why you accepted the Deputy Secretary portfolio

08:38given that you have a more extensive background as a legislator than in the education sector?

08:43We understand also that you became a teacher, a regent,

08:47and an author of a lot of bills and laws in the education sector.

08:52But for some, your background in education is not that extensive.

09:00They're right.

09:02We didn't grow up as school administrators or teachers,

09:06although we also taught and became part of the school governing board.

09:11But they're right.

09:13That's why I'm here.

09:15We haven't been able to start our duties yet, Maris,

09:21but we acknowledge that we have a lot to learn.

09:25That's our primary goal in our duties.

09:29We admit that we still have a lot to learn and study here.

09:34But we're willing and we're listening to the advice of experts,

09:40educators, and we will not politicize this very important department.

09:47But on the other hand, Senator,

09:50how can your legislative or lawmaking background help you in your new duties as Deputy Secretary?

09:58That's a big help because our coordination with our legislators will be better,

10:05particularly when it comes to passing our budget annually.

10:10In terms of coordination with the laws passed by the Congress,

10:17hopefully, our implementing rules will be smoother.

10:23Since the Congress is the highest policymaking body,

10:30we will follow it.

10:32We will help them if they need research or supporting documents in their bills.

10:43We are ready to support them.

10:45Senator, how will you start the Marching Orders of the President,

10:49especially in raising the PISA rankings in the Philippines?

10:52We're in the second to the lowest.

10:55This is a bit difficult.

10:57But what are your plans to do this?

11:03The PISA rating is a reflection of the quality of our education.

11:08Our direction now is to streamline our curriculum or make it simpler.

11:15Before, it was focused on a lot of subjects and competencies,

11:21almost 1,000.

11:23Our current direction is to focus on the basics or educational and foundational skills.

11:31We will continue that.

11:33That is reading, focus on reading and mathematics and science.

11:39That will be our focus and we will increase that because that is the foundation of our educational system.

11:46The streamlining of the curriculum is important for the students to focus on the most important things,

11:54like reading, comprehension, mathematics and science.

11:58That's right. That will be our focus.

12:01We will see how we can further simplify it and improve the quality of our teaching.

12:09We will also look at our teacher's education.

12:13Not only the teacher, but the continuing education is also a part of the professional growth of a teacher.

12:24We have a teacher education council and we will see how we can improve its operation.

12:31Senator, the election will start soon.

12:33You said that when we interviewed you, this is one of your priorities.

12:38How will you address the lack of supplies like books, textbooks, classrooms and teachers as well?

12:47The good thing is that a lot of people want to help in that aspect.

12:52Many in the private sector want to donate classrooms.

12:57Many government agencies want to help in constructing classrooms

13:04because they know that we have a so-called classroom backlog.

13:08When it comes to textbooks or books, we will see how we can increase the procurement of our important supplies to our students.

13:24Because the Department of Education had a hard time bidding in the past years, since 2018,

13:33the budget given by the legislative branch or the Congress is not enough.

13:39That will be our focus so that we can quickly prepare and purchase our textbooks.

13:46We also need to improve the delivery to our schools.

13:52Senator, you also mentioned that you are supportive of additional allowances for teachers.

13:57How can we ensure that they will receive it?

14:01Yes. Ever since we became a member of the Congress and the Senate,

14:05we have been authoring proposals to increase the salaries of our teachers and other government officials.

14:13I know that government agencies are studying this issue because of the number of teachers and government officials working in our public schools.

14:26We need a lot of money for this.

14:29But I'm confident, under the Marcos administration, we will have an increase in the salaries of our teachers.

14:35All right Senator. We have a few more questions online.

14:39We are waiting for you. Susan Enriquez will read them out.

14:43Senator, good morning.

14:46Good morning, Susan.

14:47Senator, Rhyme asked...

14:50Blight. Blit.

14:52She said, can the K-12 be removed?

14:55It's so painful because the kids will be bullied for a long period of time in K-12.

15:02Senator. Secretary.

15:05The K-12 is a law. While it's a law, we are obligated to follow the K-12 curriculum for 12 years, from kindergarten to grade 12.

15:18What happened is, there were a few implementation of K-12 in the past.

15:24The promise of getting a job, our K-12 or senior high school graduates, is not yet a reality.

15:35That's why we need to improve the curriculum of grade 11 and grade 12.

15:43What they are teaching there are those who can provide a job for them.

15:48Aside from their personal growth, there's their professional growth and potential to get a job.

15:56At the same time, on the side of the companies, on the side of the employees, they should hire K-12 graduates.

16:08That's what they're talking about.

16:10In the education sector, we will produce the best graduates.

16:16But on the part of the employer sector, we will accept if the job description is simple and the job is not complicated.

16:28There should be a sufficient number of K-12 graduates.

16:33Okay. Thank you very much incoming Deputy Secretary-Senator Sonny Angara. Good morning to you.

16:40Thank you very much. Good morning Marisa.

16:46Historic win is the opening game of the Philippines in the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament.

16:55The Philippines won the World No. 6 in Latvia in their home court with a score of 89-80.

17:02That was the first time the Philippines won against a European team in the official FIBA competition since 1960.

17:11Player of the game with 26 points is Justin Brownlee.

17:14Kai Soto has 18 points.

17:17If they win the game against Team Georgia, they will be able to enter the semifinals.

17:29The scenes in the heart of the murder mystery drama, Widow's War, are getting intense because of the new character.

17:37Is there a secret?

17:39You don't have a loved one?

17:42Menaldrato?

17:44This is not about you.

17:46This is about you and your family's immorality.

17:53Bleat Aurora Palacios, played by veteran actress Jean Garcia.

17:57Paco's mother, played by Rafael Rosel.

18:00Sam's boyfriend, played by Bea Alonzo.

18:04The scenes between Aurora and Sam are getting intense.

18:07Because Aurora did not vote for Sam to be the future son-in-law.

18:11In fact, she investigated Sam's family background.

18:17Sam will not listen to his future mother-in-law.

18:21Galvan Palacios, played by Tonton Gutierrez, was also introduced as Paco's father.

18:26What plot twists will they bring in Widow's War?

19:25It's a peace room. It's so beautiful!

19:27Congrats in advance, guys!

19:29Now that school supplies are about to arrive,

19:31let's find out how much are the school supplies in Divisoria, Manila.

19:34And we have live news.

19:36It's EJ Gomez.

19:38EJ.

19:43Ivan, it's only been three weeks since the school supplies arrived.

19:46It's time to start buying school supplies.

19:50We visited some stores here in Divisoria to find out the prices of school supplies.

19:59Their store, Juzef,

20:01sold school supplies last week.

20:04This is how their store will look like until the second week of August.

20:08For now, they're just buying a few.

20:11We're just buying a few.

20:13Most of the time, we're waiting for a list to be written by the teachers.

20:19So far, we're just buying for our parents,

20:22especially for our mothers.

20:24We're just buying pencils, ballpoint pens, and crayons.

20:32The cheapest notebook is P20.

20:35If it's a wholesale, it's P10.

20:37The price is P180.

20:39You can save P70.

20:41The pad paper is also P20 to P35.

20:45The cheapest pencil is P10.

20:47If a box contains 20 pieces,

20:50you can buy it for P180.

20:52There's a savings of P20.

20:54The price of the ballpoint pen is from P10 to P20 per piece.

20:59While a box of 8-piece crayons can be bought for P50.

21:03The 24-piece crayons are P120.

21:07There's also an eraser, ruler, pencil case, bag,

21:11and any other school supplies that can be bought here in Divisoria.

21:16According to Sara,

21:18Maybe within 2 weeks, we'll increase the price.

21:23That's what we're doing.

21:25That's what we're doing.

21:26We're advising our parents that if possible,

21:29it's better for them to buy early

21:32while we're still selling at a low price.

21:35According to the price guide issued by the Trade Department,

21:38almost 30 school supply items have a high price.

21:43That's why Beth is the only one who can afford to buy school supplies for her son who's in Grade 1.

21:48I'll just buy school supplies like notebook, paper, eraser, pencil, pencil case, and other things.

21:55I'll buy them wholesale so I can save money.

22:05Ivan, according to our conversation,

22:08their stock is enough.

22:12For those who will buy,

22:13remember to check the label of the school supplies.

22:17It should have the name and address of the manufacturer or importer.

22:24That's the first news from Divisoria, Manila.
