00:00Effective today, Pogo, or Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators, are now banned.
00:20The President instructed them to follow his 3rd State of the Nation Address.
00:25The President also gave the position of the Philippines to the West Philippine Sea,
00:30and highlighted the effective strategy of his administration in the fight against drugs.
00:37Ivan Mayrina has a report.
00:42Scamming, human trafficking, and torture.
00:45These are just some of the illegal activities committed by the Pogos
00:49that President Bongbong Marcos is targeting in his area.
00:51This disorder must be stopped in our society and in our country.
01:02Effective today, all Pogos are banned.
01:07PPPF! PPPF! PPPF!
01:20The President's order on the banning of Pogos,
01:22Pogos must be closed before the end of the year.
01:24He also asked Dolly and the economic manager to look for a job
01:28for the Filipinos affected by the Pogos ban.
01:31The President has been waiting for months for a position on Pogos,
01:34in the middle of an ongoing issue.
01:37Speaking of the West Philippine Sea,
01:39the Philippines continues to pursue the path of peace
01:42and compliance with the rules-based international order
01:45while upholding the rights of the country in its waters.
01:48We continuously try to find ways to de-escalate tensions in contested areas
01:54with our counterparts without compromising our position and our principles.
01:59The West Philippine Sea is not just our thoughts.
02:04It is ours.
02:07And it will remain ours as long as the spirit of our beloved country, the Philippines, is alive.
02:15Special mention to those who are facing challenges in Sigalo and in the region.
02:19To the entire Armed Forces, to the Coast Guard,
02:22to our fishermen in the West Philippine Sea,
02:26please accept our heartfelt thanks to the entire country
02:31for your hard work and sacrifice.
02:35The growth of the President,
02:37his administration's effective campaign against drugs,
02:40which he called bloodless.
02:42Our bloodless war on dangerous drugs adheres and will continue to adhere
02:48to the established eight E's of an effective anti-illegal drug strategy.
02:54Extermination was never one of them.
02:57The government also helped public school teachers
03:00to pay off their debt
03:02because they will be allowed to teach under the Teaching Allowance Act
03:06starting next year.
03:07The President also promised that no teacher will retire as just a teacher
03:11because an expanded career system has been laid out for them.
03:14Despite this, he was given a drop in the rank of Act Teacher's Party List.
03:18The President said that this is the most important issue.
03:22The 50,000 pesos in entry-level salary for teachers.
03:26The President also called on the Congress
03:28to repeal the Electric Power Industry Reform Act or EPIRA Act
03:31because it is hard for the people to pay and become businessmen
03:34because of the high price of electricity.
03:36The President also promised to continue fixing the trains,
03:40roads, bridges, expressways, etc.
03:43that will help the Philippines to travel faster.
03:46In the midst of the high price of goods,
03:49the government's target is to make Kadiwa Center in the country permanent.
03:53Yvonne Miri reporting for GMA Integrated News.
03:57The PAGCORP is studying on how to slowly stop the operation of POGOs
04:02in accordance with the order of President Marcos.
04:05PAGCORP Chairman Alejandro Tenco said
04:08that they will explain the 43 legal POGOs in accordance with the order of the President.
04:13Tenco urged our countrymen who will lose their jobs because of the POGO ban
04:18to consult DOLE to get a skills or job training program.
04:23It is estimated that 42,000 Filipinos are the direct employees of the legal POGO.
04:28It does not include indirect and ancillary services.
04:33Labor Secretary Bienvenido Laguesma said
04:36that they will find a way to give jobs to the Filipino POGO workers.
04:41The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission and some lawmakers also approved the POGO ban.
04:47There are points in the President's zone that were set up by the minority bloc in the camera.
04:53But this is not enough because it was not mentioned how the police and other important people will act.
05:00That's why they will still have a contrast zone.
05:04You know, we will explain the legal ones that have licenses.
05:09That's 43 so far.
05:12At least now, we know what is inside the POGOs.
05:20We know that nothing is given that is good.
05:24But most of the time, we see only bad things.
05:27I really feel that this is a great success for the women and children who complained,
05:34for the whistleblowers who complained.
05:38This is an important success for those mothers.
05:41It was the right decision to ban this POGO.
05:45Even though the POGO was banned,
05:47this work for our countrymen still needs to be addressed.
05:54As a precaution for the possible effects of Hurricane Karina and Hurricane Habagat,

06:14in all public and private schools.
06:18There will also be no entry in the province of Bataan and in the whole of Pampanga.
06:26The official of the government posted a viral video
06:30of a man who was placed as if he had powder on his nose.
06:35It was released by the Hakbang ng Maisug group in America
06:40before President Bongbong Marcos' third zone.
06:53That's the cry of the viewers when the video was released
06:57and spread quickly on social media.
07:00The Noay Presidential Spokesperson of the Duterte Administration, Harry Roque,
07:06was also present at the gathering.
07:08According to Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin,
07:11the video was malicious, fake, and a hoax.
07:15That's also what the Department of Information and Communications Technology thinks.
07:20They are now banning the video.
07:23DILG Secretary Benher Abalos,
07:27who is the son of President Bongbong Marcos,

08:02I got injured.
08:05But it's okay. I've been through a lot of injuries.
08:08It's just a basic injury.
08:10It's like I was dragged by my embarrassment.
08:15This scene of David Licauco in the series, Pulang Araw,
08:19became a challenge for her.
08:22She told me that I screamed.
08:25That's the hardest thing for me to do in acting,
08:30because I don't really scream.
08:32I was embarrassed.
08:35My foot died.
08:36Bea Alonso was impressed by Benjamin Alves' performance as Basil.
08:41You pushed him.
08:43He's good at expressing his emotions.
08:48I want him to spark conversations on social media.
