00:00Not a mountain of garbage, but a vegetable garden is the life of this vegetable garden in Bayatas.
00:15The one who led it was an OFW.
00:18Do you need vegetables for the day?
00:21You don't have to go to the market anymore because here in this garden, vegetables are free.
00:29You can choose from free water spinach, eggplant, okra, mustard, and many more.
00:40Where can you find that?
00:45Here in Bayatas, Quezon City, people say that it's all you want.
00:53Welcome to OFW Natural Organic Garden.
00:56Thank you for the blessing.
01:03The founder and former overseas Filipino worker of OFW, Rosalyn Oroz, is the founder of this good vibes farm.
01:12She worked in the Middle East for 10 years.
01:15Before she decided to come home and become a full-time farmer, I personally talked to her.
01:22Why did you decide to join this organic farming from becoming an OFW?
01:27We didn't have any worries during the pandemic.
01:31I love gardening and plants.
01:36My friends and I talked about gardening.
01:43But why did you let go of being an OFW? You earn more there, right?
01:47Yes, I earn more there.
01:49But I want to stay with my children because they're still young.
01:54I left them. I couldn't take care of them.
01:57What was the event that convinced you the most?
02:01My son will graduate from college because he will be working.
02:06He has a lot of dreams for us.
02:08He said, I'll be a mother.
02:11The farm was just rented to them.
02:15They also pay for the water consumption here.
02:19Farming here in Metro Manila is challenging, right?
02:24Because your space is limited.
02:26Yes, yes.
02:27But because we're talking to the owner of the land, we rented it.
02:33It looks like you're listening to the sound of free vegetables on Rose's farm.
02:38This is Angiopetiera.
02:41Good morning, Rose.
02:43Good morning, sir.
02:44What's in front of us?
02:46This is the composting that we're doing to make our farm better.
02:50These are their vitamins.
02:53Because Rose's plants are organic, the vegetables are also all-natural.
02:58These are the plants that are rotting. We're mixing them.
03:04Yes, plants, fruits.
03:06For example, those that are rotting in the market, we're picking them up.
03:12Before you pick up the vegetables, you have to work hard, Anjo.
03:16Your first task is to pick up the compost.
03:20I'm going to the farm because I'm going to plant.
03:24It's really heavy. Let's see if I can do it.
03:26Thank you.
03:27I'll carry it.
03:28Let's see if I can do it.
03:30You can do it, sir.
03:32It's really heavy.
03:35Let's go.
03:36Rose, this is our farm, right?
03:39Yes, this is our garden.
03:41That's just the first task, Anjo.
03:43Start planting.
03:47I'll just put it on the ground.
03:48Yes.
03:49We'll just cut it.
03:50Just cut it.
03:53Now, we're going to water the plants.
03:55After planting the mustard, we're going to Anjo's third task.
04:01But, with a twist.
04:03Anjo needs to harvest the vegetables within one minute.
04:08So, Anjo, are you ready?
04:10Timer starts now.
04:13I'm still competitive.
04:16Go, Anjo. You have a lot to test.
04:19No more questions.
04:20Timer, timer, timer.
04:22It's big.
04:27These are all big.
04:38Within one minute, this is how much I harvested.
04:42What can you say?
04:43That's a lot.
04:45But, you need to clean it before you put it here.
04:47Because, I already harvested earlier.
04:49I think Anjo's tasks are never-ending for today.
04:52He harvests, he cleans.
04:55This is how you clean it, sir.
04:56You have to remove the roots.
04:58The roots.
04:59Yes.
05:00Then, you have to cut it.
05:01Can I do this, Nanay Rose?
05:02Did I do it right?
05:03Yes, you did it right.
05:04It's clean now.
05:05Can I eat this?
05:06Yes, you can eat it.
05:08We'll grill it.
05:10Which one do you prefer, the big one or the small one?
05:11The big one.
05:12The big one, okay.
05:14For now, there are more than 40 members of Nanay Rose's group.
05:18Some of them are former OFWs who are not from other countries anymore.
05:23And, they chose to plant for now.
05:25One of them is Nel Malin.
05:29Our daily gardening helped our family.
05:32We were able to buy vegetables that we don't need anymore.
05:36And, it's organic.
05:38I think we were able to buy 20% of what we need.
05:40Because, rice is expensive now.
05:42That's what we buy.
05:43Aside from the personal consumption, they also sell their products here.
05:47We sell our products here at a market price.
05:50But, we know how to give more than the market price.
05:54That's why we are here at the farm.
05:56We also take care of ourselves every day to be healthy.
05:59So, we can give more rice to sustain our family.
06:05Meanwhile, Anjo is ready to sell the vegetables that she harvested earlier.
06:10We will try to sell all of these to help Nanay Rose.
06:14So, come with me.
06:15Let's see if we can sell all of these today.
06:18Let's go!
06:20Hello! How are you?
06:23Do you have sugar for Sigang?
06:25We don't have it yet.
06:26This is perfect. We have okra.
06:27This is only 10 pesos.
06:28This is our kangkong.
06:29It's only 10 pesos, right?
06:30There might be 10 pesos.
06:31You can buy it there so that I can go home.
06:33It's like a tollgate.
06:36Okra.
06:37This is your favorite.
06:38You can count me.
06:39I will buy it when you buy it from me.
06:40No, just one.
06:41Eggplant.
06:42Eggplant?
06:43Ma'am, just wait.
06:44When you get Sigang, you will get 10 pesos back.
06:47Thank you very much.
06:48Of course, not all of our vegetables will be sold
06:52because some of these will be given for free.
06:55Ma'am, do you know that vegetables for kids can be priced?
06:59Do you have sugar for Sigang later tonight?
07:01No.
07:02You don't have it? Do you have 10 pesos?
07:03I don't have it.
07:04You don't have it?
07:05I don't have it.
07:06Okay, but this is for you.
07:07This is for you.
07:08This is for you.
07:09You're welcome.
07:10This is for Baby.
07:11Thank you.
07:12I don't think we can make it here for an hour.
07:14Because of one bunch of vegetables that Anjo has,
07:17it's almost running out.
07:18Just 50 pesos.
07:19Okay.
07:20Thank you very much, ma'am.
07:21You're welcome.
07:22This is for you.
07:23Congratulations.
07:24Yay!
07:26And because of that, you're mission accomplished, Anjo.
07:30In organic farming, what did you learn that you can apply?
07:36Be patient.
07:38Just be patient because sometimes it's hard.
07:42But just think that the day will come when your hard work will bear fruit.
07:50And that's it, ma'am.
07:53Ma'am, I'm so happy that I was able to experience for a day how it is to be a farmer.
07:59It's not a joke.
08:00But it's fulfilling especially when you know what you're feeding your family.
08:05That's why, Miss Vicky, our challenge is successful.
08:09Good job.
08:10I think we can call this a success, right?
08:13Vegetable farming is a simple way to save on daily expenses.
08:19It's profitable.
08:21You can even share it with others.
08:23This is for you.
08:25You're welcome.
08:26This is for Baby.
08:27Thank you.
08:28Here's another feel-good story for you here at Good News.
08:34People on the street were given their portrait.
08:41What's your name?
08:43This one looks like it's already fat.
08:44It's already full.
08:45If you taste this, you'll come back to me when you're young.
08:48This is the bread that we call Pandebaran.
08:52I hope I can find you.
08:54Just one kiss on the kissing stone in Cotopato and you'll find your one.
09:08The mission of our experiment today is to make people on the street happy.
09:13We will give away their portrait.
09:18In a Facebook post, you can see a netizen talking about how their parents bought their children's portrait for their graduation,
09:28which was taken by a traditional photographer.
09:31In a cheap way, they not only have souvenirs, but they also helped others.
09:38In Navaliches, Quezon City, we met Jing, who has been a traditional photographer for three decades.
09:44Jing finished his course in architecture, but he chose photography as his passion.
09:52Jing started taking portraits in 1987.
09:56I studied photography.
09:58At first, it was just for fun.
09:59I had a job, with the help of my wife, here in the town.
10:03At that time, people were into painting.
10:06They really wanted to take a picture and send it to their relatives.
10:11I was the only one who sent it to the post office.
10:15He said that he made a lot of money in this profession.
10:18Whenever there was an occasion where he needed to take a picture, people would run to him.
10:24Because of this, he was able to support his studies and the needs of four children.
10:30But after three decades, how was his photography business?
10:36But in 2022, I was still wondering if my photos would click.
10:44But people were not expecting it.
10:48Even my price, I couldn't raise it.
10:52Today, there are a few people who take pictures of him.
10:57Most of them are old people.
10:59But the children, they really don't have a cell phone.
11:04Even if he makes a lot of money, his being a portraitist is a blessing.
11:10With God's mercy, I was able to build a house.
11:14I was able to teach my children at the same time.
11:18Even my wife, with their allowance.
11:21What will be the reaction of our viewers
11:25if they receive their own portrait from a traditional photographer?
11:31Let's find out in our experiment.
11:34Roll the Good News Camera.
11:37Will Jing's flash be able to capture the smiles in our hearts?
11:43Good afternoon.
11:45Sir, I have an experiment for you.
11:47It's a candid shot.
11:50Oh no, there's no fee.
11:52Ma'am, there's no fee.
11:53No, there's no fee.
11:54Thank you so much.
11:55You're welcome.
11:56Thank you.
11:58This is my boss.
12:01Surprise, we didn't expect that.
12:03It's important because first of all,
12:06after a while, when the children grow up,
12:09they will be able to see their memories.
12:12I already have a few cell phones.
12:15All of my cell phones are broken.
12:18You're right, Myra and Ronaldo.
12:21You can put Jing's photo in your photo album.
12:25Jing went around again and the next target
12:28is this sweet couple that he took a picture of.
12:34Sir, ma'am, I'll take your photo.
12:36It's free, ma'am.
12:38No fee.
12:39Even if you don't open your cell phone, you'll see it right away.
12:42Our photographer is on the move again and in his walk,
12:46he spotted his friends.
12:49It's 16 below.
12:50Good afternoon, miss.
12:53I'll take your photo.
12:54It's free.
12:55Here's the flower.
13:02Hey, that's perfect.
13:03Sir, I don't have a flower.
13:06If it's a girl, and we don't know,
13:08we'll capture the moment.
13:10Jing's next target is this couple that they're dating.
13:15Ma'am, surprise.
13:17It's free.
13:18No fee.
13:19Thank you.
13:21For me, if it's a phone, you can post it on social media.
13:24But it's okay if it's just for remembrance
13:27in specific places.
13:29Let's level up the excitement.
13:31In a restaurant, Jing and the Good News team
13:35went to get stolen shots of the customers who were bonding.
13:39Will they notice their pictures on the table?
13:43It looks like someone noticed our table.
13:46What will they say in the printed photos?
13:49The printed photos are still different
13:51because you can keep it in your house.
13:53As a Filipino, we have the tradition to keep photos in our album.
13:58That's why it's nice.
13:59And this family also noticed their pictures on the table.
14:06The phone is good quality-wise.
14:10And this one, when it comes to digital,
14:14it's better because you can keep it.
14:16So, there's sentimental value.
14:18Whether it's a cell phone or a camera,
14:20every memory should be preserved
14:23so that the memories can be brought back to life.
14:30Watch out for the Good News.
14:32I hope I can find you.
14:34Just one kiss on the kissing stone in Cotabato
14:38and you'll find your No. 1.
14:40No. 1
14:46If you're looking for an overloaded shipog,
14:49there's a hot and cute pandesal
14:53loaded with liver spread,
14:55egg,
14:56cheese,
14:57ham,
14:58luncheon meat,
15:00and a can of mayonnaise
15:02that you can eat for only 10 pesos.
15:06You won't be able to pay for that.
15:09This is the bread that I call pandebara.
15:13That's why I call it pandebara
15:16because it's round and long.
15:18However, you have to fight for it if you want to eat it.
15:23Because Ste, this pandebara vendor,
15:26he's going around everywhere.
15:29Where can he find the Good News team?
15:33This is a really good snack.
15:35So, it's a must-try.
15:37A few days ago,
15:39a vlogger saw this vendor
15:42who's going around Divisoria, Manila.
15:45That's why these guys
15:47have their own say on this viral pandebara.
15:52If you taste this, you'll go back to your childhood.
15:55Every time I go to school,
15:58my mom always tells me to eat this.
16:00She's always waiting for me at school.
16:01It's still early.
16:02This may be the first time that some people see this,
16:05but pandebara has been sold here in Manila since the 90s.
16:09It's a bit salty.
16:11It's not salty.
16:12It used to be really thin.
16:13But now, it's thick.
16:15It's rich.
16:16The thick and firm modern version of pandebara
16:19is said to be inherited by 49-year-old Jeffrey.
16:23That's why I decided to sell pandebara
16:27because we can see that it's affordable.
16:32Jeffrey used to work as a construction worker.
16:36But because his income was often not enough,
16:40he thought of a new way of earning money.
16:44And that's when he decided to sell pandebara.
16:48Before, he used to hold a hammer.
16:51Now, it's a knife.
16:53From cement to bread,
16:56that's what he sells.
16:58I started in 1997.
17:00My salary in construction was not enough
17:03because I was still a laborer.
17:05I was really exhausted.
17:06That's why I thought of going back to selling bread.
17:09These pandesal, which are over and loaded with income,
17:14are still brought here to a bakery
17:16that can be found in Tondo, Manila.
17:19This is where the pandebara comes from.
17:22They charge me 150 pesos each.
17:27Jeffrey also sells pandebara as a buffet.
17:34At noon, Jeffrey goes straight to the market.
17:38And today, he's going to visit
17:42the town of Norzagaray in the province of Bulacan.
17:46Bread!
17:48I can sell 5 pieces of pandebara for 20 pesos.
17:53There's also an overload.
17:57One piece costs 10 pesos.
18:01He feels like he's helping his fellow man.
18:05He doesn't want to earn a lot in this business.
18:09That's why he keeps the price as low as possible.
18:12It's delicious because it has cheese.
18:15The taste is just right. It's delicious.
18:18But why from Manila?
18:20Our friend Jeffrey went to Norzagaray.
18:24This is where his family lives.
18:27That's why sometimes, he goes to the market with them.
18:32Even though he's sick, he still continues his work.
18:37I feel sorry for him. I can't do anything for him.
18:40Because he's the only one I can count on in finding a job.
18:43Even though the market is cheap,
18:45he and his family changed a lot.
18:49He started selling pandebaras.
18:53Selling pandebaras has helped me a lot in my son's studies.
18:59That's how we got his support.
19:02In one day, he clearly earned 400 to 500 pesos.
19:11And as a thank you to his parishioners,
19:14there's good news for him.
19:16Because for today, he's giving away free pandebaras to his neighbors.
19:21That's why the people are lining up.
19:24Call your children.
19:26What do you want? Chili?
19:36It's delicious. It's a free spread.
19:37Thank you to all of us.
19:39We were able to give away free pandebaras.
19:44Thank you to all of our sponsors.
19:48In life, it's not all about money.
19:50We also learn to share blessings.
19:54Jeffrey's life is like selling his own pandebaras.
19:59It's smooth and there's perseverance.
20:03And his secret to his success in selling is...
20:07To work hard and be patient so that he can finish it early.
20:11Good morning.
20:15Are you tired of being single?
20:17If your wish is to be taken,
20:21it's possible for it to come true.
20:25All you need to do is...
20:28Return to the rock.
20:32This rock can be found in Lake Holon.
20:35It's also known as the Crown Jewel of the South
20:38in the province of Tiboli, South Cotabato.
20:41Aside from camping, hiking, and other activities that can be done here,
20:45another thing that tourists recommend is the Kissing Stone.
20:49I believe in it.
20:50A lot of people have tried to return there.
20:52They also had a love life.
20:53Tourists believe that if you return to the Kissing Stone,
20:57you'll find a partner.
21:00One day, Flory Mei believed in this rock.
21:04She returned,
21:05prayed,
21:06and just two months later,
21:09they were already in a relationship.
21:11And in December 2023,
21:13they were already happily married.
21:15You'll really have a baby.
21:20But how did it happen that a simple rock
21:23became the answer to your search for the one?
21:30According to locals,
21:31the rock is known as the Wishing Stone.
21:35But most of the wishes that were fulfilled here
21:38are about love.
21:40If you roll it on the rock,
21:41they're asking something to the stone.
21:44It became viral because
21:45around 100 stones were given.
21:49Because the more that you ask something to that certain thing,
21:53positively,
21:54the power and energy will be given to you.
21:57That's why tourists never stop climbing.
22:01One of them is Renee,
22:03who's hashtag single.
22:06Renee is happy to hike with her friends.
22:10That's why when they heard about the Kissing Stone,
22:12they were curious.
22:14One of our friends said that
22:16we'll go to the back of the rock
22:18to find a partner.
22:19She said,
22:20we need to return to a rock.
22:22That's why in April 2022,
22:24from Cagayan de Oro,
22:26the group will travel for 8 hours
22:28to reach the rock.
22:30When it comes to the Kissing Stone,
22:32there are a lot of people.
22:33We laughed because a lot of people kissed.
22:35It's really weird.
22:36It's so weird.
22:37But because he's ready to fall in love again,
22:41Renee already kissed the rock.
22:43I kissed it.
22:44My tongue came out.
22:51I went back to the top of the Kissing Stone.
22:54I kissed the rock 360 degrees.
22:56She said that she wants to see her partner
22:59and have a child.
23:01I really felt that my wishes will come true
23:04after I returned to the rock.
23:08Just a month later,
23:10Renee is already on the talking stage.
23:13But it didn't work out.
23:15All the people I chatted with or on my talking stage,
23:18we don't have the same hobbies.
23:22In outdoor,
23:23that's why we didn't click.
23:25But she didn't lose hope
23:27because her friends who were with her when she climbed the rock
23:30already had a boyfriend.
23:31And it's already September 2023.
23:34The long wait is over.
23:36The Kissing Stone
23:39seems to have an effect.
23:41Renee met Wendy.
23:43She has a TikTok.
23:44Her dance is amazing.
23:45I was mesmerized.
23:46I reacted a lot to it.
23:48She noticed me there.
23:49The first thing we met was...
23:52We're Vibes.
23:53We've known each other for a long time.
23:55She was starstruck by me at that time.
23:57It's because I just took a bath.
23:59It's been a long time since I took a bath
24:00when I don't have a boyfriend.
24:05The two of them are also in sync
24:06when it comes to their hobbies.
24:09That's why Renee's single
24:14is finally taken now.
24:16I felt that at that time,
24:18she was in love with me.
24:19Because she always said,
24:21I love you.
24:23Even before I took a bath,
24:24I said, I love you right away.
24:26It's really nice to be in love.
24:29But it's not just a girlfriend
24:30who gave the Kissing Stone to Renee.
24:32Even her one request
24:34came true.
24:35Wendy and I have been together for 4 months.
24:38We really planned that in January.
24:40We were going to go up to Lake Colón in February.
24:43We suddenly found out
24:44that she was pregnant at that time.
24:47Do you know that this is considered a miracle?
24:50When Renee was young,
24:51the doctor told her
24:53that it will be difficult for her to have a child
24:55because of her operation.
24:58But because of her belief,
25:00now she will be a father.
25:03Before, she was kissed by a stone.
25:05Now,
25:08it's a baby and her soon-to-be wife.
25:11I promise you
25:12that I will not let you be our baby.
25:17Very good.
25:18I love you.
25:23When we met Jimmy,
25:24he also liked her.
25:26Actually,
25:27I've been single for a year.
25:29Jimmy came from a 5-year relationship
25:32before he became single.
25:34Because of their long-term relationship,
25:37it's hard for him to move on.
25:39You can't sleep,
25:40you can't eat,
25:41you always feel dizzy.
25:43But they said,
25:44there are reasons and things
25:46why that happened.
25:48So when he found out about the Kissing Stone,
25:50he practiced
25:52how to kiss it.
25:56And he immediately prepared
25:58for his next hike.
26:00I hope I can move on.
26:02And for today's video,
26:04we will accompany him
26:05on his journey to moving on.
26:09Before the stone can be seen,
26:10it needs to be climbed for almost 2 hours.
26:14And before it can be climbed,
26:15it needs to go through an orientation.
26:19Here, you can also see
26:20the tribe of Tiboli
26:21welcoming their visitors
26:23by dancing.
26:30With his tour guide,
26:32Jimmy started his hike.
26:38Okay,
26:39we're now at the first station.
26:42This is what they call
26:44Century Tree.
26:46We're going to Lake Colon.
26:47Let's go!
26:51Let's go!
26:59We're now here
27:00at the second station.
27:01We're going to Lake Colon.
27:03In the middle of the hike,
27:05it looks like it's raining.
27:08It's raining a bit.
27:10So how do you move on?
27:13There's a saying in South Cotabato,
27:15if you kiss a stone,
27:18you'll find your way.
27:22Kiss a stone in South Cotabato.
27:28Answer to find your way.
27:32Jimmy's group
27:33accompanied Good News
27:34to climb this.
27:36We're now here at the first station.
27:38We're now here
27:39at the second station.
27:42It's raining a bit.
27:49Finally!
27:52It's just a bit.
27:54I can kiss it.
27:56I can move on.
28:02And after two hours,
28:07Finally!
28:08This is what I've been waiting for.
28:12To kiss the kissing stone.
28:14You know the drill, Jimmy.
28:16You can now go back
28:17and kiss it.
28:24I hope
28:26I can move on
28:28and find a new partner.
28:33I hope I can find you.
28:38This belief
28:40is now part of the culture
28:41of the Tiboli tribe.
28:43We are indigenous people.
28:44We believe in
28:45supernatural well-being
28:47that connects to stones,
28:48to trees,
28:49to rivers,
28:50to lakes.
28:51Our gods and goddesses
28:53reside in the living things
28:55around us.
28:57We have a concept
28:58called the unconscious.
29:01Because we have a belief
29:03about something,
29:05unconsciously,
29:06we make efforts
29:08to fulfill our wish
29:10that we ask
29:11from the kissing stone.
29:15That's why kissing
29:16and asking
29:17is not a bad thing to do.
29:19What's important
29:20is to believe
29:21and pray
29:23that your long-awaited
29:24wish for forever
29:27will come
29:28and will come.
29:30Thank you for listening
29:32to our feel-good stories.
29:34See you again
29:35next Saturday.
