00:00We will all be together in Saksi!
00:14My fellow countrymen, before Saksi, the detention facility in the Senate is ready for Mayor Alice Guo,
00:20in case the Mayor is arrested or suspended, according to Senate President Chief Escudero.
00:24According to Mayor Guo's lawyer, his client is already thinking about when and how he will submit to the Senate.
00:30Saksi, this is Darlene Kay.
00:35These class pictures are from 2000 to 2003, taken at Grace Christian High School in Quezon City, now known as Grace Christian College.
00:41And according to some former students, a child in the pictures is called Wa Ping with the last name Guo.
00:49This is him in Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 3.
00:52According to Senator Sherman Gatchalian, in the last hearing of the Senate,
00:56the school records and alien certificate of registration that Guo used to enroll were released.
01:02Guo also passed a birth certificate from China.
01:06I talked to two of Guo's classmates on the condition that they will hide their identity for their security.
01:12One of them is a former seatmate of the Mayor.
01:15I just remembered that I have a classmate named Wa Ping in Grade 2.
01:20When I got home, I searched for our class picture.
01:24It looks like he has a resemblance.
01:28In Wa Ping's appearance, he is older than them.
01:31He is a few years, three years, four years older.
01:34He is also one of the tallest girls.
01:37Aside from his height, he is more mature than his classmate.
01:40It is also difficult for classmates to speak Tagalog and English, but he is good at Chinese.
01:44His Chinese accent was thicker before compared to now that he can speak Tagalog.
01:50But when I remember, it was very rough.
01:54As my classmate also got older,
01:56our class pictures became less revealing.
02:00One of my classmates also confirmed the pictures.
02:03One time, I scrolled on Facebook.
02:05I said, why does it look familiar?
02:07I searched for my class pictures of Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 3 at home.
02:12I even hid it.
02:14And I saw the same picture.
02:17I saw that he is my classmate of Grade 1.
02:20I also checked my other class pictures.
02:24He is also my classmate of Grade 2.
02:26We tried to go to Grace Christian College, but we were not allowed to enter the gate of the village.
02:31They are still not answering our emails and messages.
02:34According to Senate President Cheese Escudero,
02:38Goh's detention facility is ready.
02:40It's time for him to be arrested or suspended.
02:42The same goes for those who are under arrest order.
02:44There are air conditioning, bunk beds, and right next to the PNP office in the Senate.
02:48Mayor Goh and his family can also stay there.
02:51It's a detention facility.
02:53It's a room, air-conditioned, with its own restroom, with bunk beds, right next to the PNP.
02:58I inspected it earlier.
02:59In order to ensure the safety of Mayor Goh,
03:02we are keeping him there with his family.
03:07Nancy Gamo is in a good condition.
03:10Goh's accountant is saying that he will be arrested this weekend.
03:13According to Escudero, Goh may be asked to be released when he is arrested or suspended.
03:18But that is only if Senator Risa Hontiveros' committee allows it.
03:22She is convincing the committee, Senator Risa,
03:25that this is just a chance, but I will attend.
03:29I promise. I am a mayor. You can release me on my own recognizance.
03:33I know the community.
03:35If the committee allows it, there is no reason for me not to allow it.
03:39According to Goh's lawyer, the mayor is still in the Philippines.
03:43She is contemplating when and how she will surrender to the jurisdiction of the Senate.
03:49If she surrenders now, she will be detained for a long time until the next hearing, which is, I think, on July 29.
03:56If she moves, of course, it will be during the hearing.
03:59Mayor Alice Goh, or Goh Goa Peque,
04:03if you have Facebook, you can probably face the Senate.
04:09You even used Facebook to spread fake news that you are Filipino.
04:17You are not Filipino.
04:19In addition to Senator Risa Hontiveros,
04:21based on her information from the Anti-Money Laundering Council or AMLOC,
04:25Goh's company, BAUFU, has a direct transaction with the account of Hong Jiang Yang,
04:30a brother of Michael Yang, who was the former economic advisor of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
04:35Goh's company has a transaction with the incorporator of Hong Sheng, the ancestor of Raid in Bambang.
04:40Who is Hong Jiang Yang? You may ask.
04:44He is the brother of Michael Yang.
04:48Yes, the same Michael Yang who was the former economic presidential advisor of Duterte.
04:55In short, the money of Michael Yang's brother was used to fund Hong Sheng, the raided Bambang Togo.
05:03Hontiveros also said that Hong Jiang Yang has a relationship with Gerald Cruz,
05:09also one of the incorporators of Farmily Biological.
05:12The Farmily of the Duterte administration became controversial due to the issue of overpriced medical supplies.
05:17I said, it looks like this Pogo and Farmily members are one big happy farmily.
05:25Maybe this Farmily is the farm that was grown by Alice Goh.
05:30Michael Yang's camp has not yet agreed to the promises of Hontiveros.
05:34But he first said that he has no connection to the illegal Pogo.
05:37For GMA Integrated News, Darling Kai is your witness.
05:43In preparation for the return to school,
05:45Meralco added more than 2 pesos per kilowatt hour this July.
05:50How will their budget fit?
05:53Mackie Polido challenged this in Barangay Saksi.
06:00Just two weeks ago, Meralco entered their school again.
06:03At the same time, Meralco added more than 2 pesos per kilowatt hour.
06:09Meralco's yield was high this July.
06:12We asked our online supporters,
06:14what will you do to make the budget fit?
06:17One said, they will first reduce the use of appliances to save on electricity.
06:22The other said, they will just pay for one while the other will use a candle as a light
06:27and will open windows so that they won't use an air conditioner.
06:30The other said, they will wash the dishes first to avoid using a washing machine
06:35and will just save time on using a television.
06:38And if there's no use of a refrigerator, just remove it.
06:42That's the only thing we will discard so that we can save.
06:46We will save on electric fan because it's already cold.
06:50And for TV, we will avoid it because we have a cellphone.
06:55The rate hike is affecting not only the payers at home but also in the business.
06:59Sales at Louisa's store are already low.
07:02Her monthly income is around P5,000 to P6,000.
07:07Her position is only one out of three stores before the COVID-19 pandemic.
07:12The electricity bill is too high.
07:15Generation Charge is the biggest bug in the rate hike,
07:19as well as the increase in transmission charge, expenses, and others.
07:22Because of that, the total electricity rate this July increased from P11.60 to P9.45 last June.
07:31Meralco said that the June billing went down
07:34because of the order of the Energy Regulatory Commission to make a four-month installment,
07:38which was supposed to be increased last June.
07:41So for the July billing, the deferred payment of P77 per kilowatt-hour
07:46will be charged to the electric bill every month from June to September.
07:50We have a disclaimer as early as last month.
07:55When you enter July, anticipate a big increase
08:00because the price of electricity will return to the previous normal level
08:05plus the deferred cost of electricity.
08:09The electricity rates depend on your consumption of electricity.
08:12If your consumption is more than 200 kilowatt-hours per month, the bill will be higher.
08:18An additional P430 will be charged to the electric bill of those who consume 200 kilowatt-hours per month.
08:25P860 for those who consume 400 kilowatt-hours per month
08:29and more than P1,000 for those who consume 500 kilowatt-hours per month.
08:33Luisa said that she will try to get closer to the bill.
08:35Even if it's low, it should be continuous rather than stop.
08:41In August, there is hope that the bill will go down.
08:44The demand for electricity is decreasing, so the price of electricity in the spot market may also go down.
08:49For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido, your witness.
09:08All systems go now!
09:10For the third State of the Nation Address of President Bongbong Marcos,
09:14according to the House Secretary General,
09:17the Interagency Committee has already walked through the process of the President's arrival at the rear entrance
09:22until his stay in the holding room and his entrance and exit from the session hall.
09:28A week before the President's sona,
09:30the participants of the PUV Modernization Rally are also getting ready.
09:34Your witness, Joseph Moro.
09:40The station of the EDSA Bus Carousel in North Avenue is now new.
09:44It is located in front of the Film Subdivision and near a new casino complex
09:48and a subway station.
09:50It is one of the busway stations that have elevators for the elderly and the disabled.
09:56However, there are people who break the elevators made of glass or break the wiring.
10:02Let's be careful. If it's a prison and you can't see the person inside,
10:06it can lead to a crime.
10:10The CRs will now follow the requirements of the winning company in the privatization of the carousel.
10:16I think these terms of reference will be a part of it.
10:19While the EDSA bus system is being repaired,
10:22the modernization of the jeepneys is still being questioned.
10:26It is called Palpac so it will be protested by the Pistoon and Bayan groups
10:30on the day of the State of the Nation address of the President in Limes.
10:33They said they will stand up to the national law.
10:36The people of Sona should be near there. They will really try it.
10:40The MMDA will spread the message that there are more than 1,000 enforcers for Sona.
10:45According to the MMDA, the Commonwealth Avenue here in Quezon City is not closed all day for the President's sona.
10:52Maybe we will close the Commonwealth portion in the mid-afternoon.
10:59There will be a zipper lane so it won't be a total closure.
11:04According to the Pistoon, the board resolution of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board or LTFRB
11:11that allows non-consolidated jeepneys to travel in a few routes,
11:18more than 200 routes were opened for non-consolidated jeepneys in Metro Manila.
11:22In the provinces, more than 2,000 routes were opened for a few consolidated jeepneys,
11:26the majority in the Cordillera Administrative Region.
11:38The LTFRB suggested that there are only a few traditional jeepneys in the listed routes
11:44so non-consolidated jeepneys with 15 units are not allowed to enter.
11:50Exempted from consolidation,
11:52those who are not able to consolidate their number 4 and below.
11:59This is the only exemption.
12:02The LTFRB also explained that non-consolidated routes are being opened for consolidated jeepneys.
12:09For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong is your witness.
12:14There will also be benefits under the PhilHealth of Persons Deprived of Liberty or PDR.
12:20Under that, a new agreement was signed by DOH, DILG, and DOJ.
12:25Witness, Saliman Refrat.
12:30In the middle of the problem in the prisons in the country,
12:34the disease of TB of many people was brought up in the autopsy of UP College of Medicine in those who died in the area.
12:42There are also those who have cancer that was not diagnosed so it was not treated.
12:47To avoid such things, the Health, Interior, and Justice Departments of the Joint Administrative Order
12:54to have a national policy in the care of the patients in the detention facilities.
13:00The arrangement of our jails will be systematized to make sure that all of these are healthy places of detention.
13:09The number one action point in the eight-point action agenda states,
13:16every Filipino feels the pain and the PDLs are part of every Filipino.
13:23The order is to speed up the treatment of those in need of treatment in the prisons
13:28and to build hospitals near or inside the prisons.
13:33For the expenses of each patient, PhilHealth will take care of it.
13:37Immediate eligibility for health care packages in line with the Universal Health Care Act
13:43as a promise, a promise we are making today.
13:45This is a big thing because the discussion here is that all PDLs will have a medical record.
13:52If they need to be treated, PhilHealth will be there.
13:57The BJMP will restrict the prohibition of smoking in their prisons so that there won't be more problems.
14:04Can you imagine, he was only there for five minutes and then he closed.
14:10For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Refran.
14:13Your Saksi.
14:16The Department of Tourism's advertisement in Naia Terminal 4
14:20got a lot of reaction on social media
14:23because of the unintentional transfer of rice terraces in Benguet.
14:28Saksi, by Niko Wahe.
14:30The National Cultural Treasure of the Philippines and Eighth Wonder of the World,
14:36that is the Banaue Rice Terraces.
14:39The last time we checked, it was in Ifugao Province.
14:43But why did they transfer it?
14:47In the billboard advertisement of the Department of Tourism in Naia Terminal 4,
14:51the rice fields of Banaue, in Benguet or Mano, are growing.
14:56That post is now viral and has a lot of comments.
14:59It's a good thing they moved it so it's easier to reach.
15:03One said, that's why it's hard to see it, but they moved it.
15:07Or maybe there's a Benguet branch.
15:10There's also a viral misunderstanding that the Mayon Volcano is in Nagam Makikita.
15:17According to the person who posted the picture, Stephen Acabado,
15:21he was surprised by the ad because he sometimes studied
15:25in the Banaue Rice Terraces as an archaeologist.
15:28I was happy when I first saw it because I work in Ifugao.
15:32But I was surprised when I saw it.
15:34Why is it in Benguet? It's a bit frustrating.
15:36It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site,
15:39but we don't know or the location information is not accurate.
15:47He sent it to Marlon Martin,
15:49who is the Chief Operating Officer of the Save the Ifugao Terraces Movement.
15:54It's about tourism.
15:56Maybe someone went to Benguet to look for Banaue Rice Terraces.
16:00The tourists are poor.
16:02Marlon also sent a picture to the Regional Director of Ifugao Tourism
16:06as a reason to report it to the Main Office of the Tourism Department.
16:10The advertisement was completely removed.
16:12It's not just now.
16:14It's been a long time.
16:16I think it's three times now.
16:19Every now and then, they will make a mistake.
16:21They will correct it before they release it.
16:24It's also the accountability of our officials.
16:27Let's just say that a contractor did it, right?
16:30But that's their look-out.
16:32The Department of Tourism has not yet issued a statement
16:35on the advertisement that was part of the Love the Philippines campaign.
16:39For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nico Juage, your eyewitness.
16:45A motorcycle collided on the side of the road
16:48that is being parked at Tulunan, Cotabato.
16:51The firemen immediately responded,
16:53but the motorcycle was quickly hit.
16:55A tricycle also collided.
16:58In Lipa, Batangas.
17:00Before that, according to a witness,
17:02the tricycle driver quickly stopped
17:04and lowered his two passengers.
17:06The fire was still being extinguished.
17:14There's something new in the lives of Shaira and Christy
17:17in Asawa ng Asawa Ko.
17:19Watch out for the character of Kylie Padilla.
17:22The netizens immediately discussed the teaser with Hanna
17:26about Kylie's role.
17:28According to the scenes,
17:30the cast welcomed Kylie warmly.
17:33Kylie admitted that she doesn't have a date
17:36for the upcoming GMA Gala.
17:38But even though she's going solo,
17:40how is her love life?
17:44Are you happy in life?
17:46Oh yes, I'm very happy.
17:48Very grateful.
17:49How about the love department?
17:52Love department?
17:54I'm happy.
17:58The YouTube accounts of the two Filipino musicians were hacked.
18:01SB19 announced that their official YouTube account was compromised.
18:05According to their statement, the incident was under control.
18:08They also reported it
18:10and the safety and security of their online platforms was fixed.
18:15Ben & Ben also announced that their YouTube channel was hacked.

18:57featured Filam Rapper, Eazy Mill,
19:01where he had a chance to rap in Tagalog.
19:06In 3 days, the video already had 3 million views.
19:10Eazy Mill was the first Filipino artist
19:14to sign on Eminem's record label.
19:18Jin's concert became a scene
19:21in his Olympic torch relay in Paris
19:24due to the strength of the fans' cheers.
19:27Jin also came home with an old smile.
19:33Jin will be remembered as the torchbearer of South Korea
19:39for the Paris Olympics 2024
19:42which will start on July 26.
19:46The Filipinos seemed to have a love drive
19:49at the concert of the group Ives in the country last weekend.
19:54The fans were also very whatsapp-like
19:57after the group sang some of their hits
20:01like Baddie and Kitsch and Eleven.
20:09My energy is on fire.
20:13Let's go!
20:15My energy is on fire
20:17when Stray Kids performed at BST Hyde Park.
20:24Their career highlight was the opportunity
