00:00:00This is a member of the Pufferfish family.
00:00:04It's said that it's delicious and you can't stop eating it.
00:00:09It's small, but it's said to be full of flavor.
00:00:19It's dangerous to eat this fish.
00:00:22Especially if the person who prepared it doesn't know how to cook it.
00:00:26But why is it a type of fish?
00:00:29It's a type of fish that is eaten and sold at parties in the town of Dimasalang in Masbate.
00:00:36They have the ability to swim like a ball as a defense against bigger fish.
00:00:43Due to the high supply of pufferfish in Dimasalang,
00:00:47most of the residents here are selling pufferfish so that it won't be destroyed immediately.
00:00:55Their seasoning is not vinegar, but bay leaves.
00:01:00It's a type of tree that also has a sour fruit.
00:01:04This is the bay leaf, our seasoning for the pufferfish.
00:01:19And the pufferfish is cooked.
00:01:25The liver is delicious.
00:01:29Mmm, delicious.
00:01:31The cooks in Dimasalang Masbate came face-on this Friday.
00:01:38They will compete in cooking Puri Ring.
00:01:43This is part of their Puri Ring Festival.
00:01:48One of the participants in the cook-off is Lora.
00:01:51She will be serving the recipe, Kinamatisang Puri Ring,
00:01:55which is made by her own hand-pulled pufferfish.
00:02:00Their family has been doing this business for four decades.
00:02:05The fish that we get from the pier,
00:02:10that's what we sell.
00:02:12The fish that Lora bought, she cleaned it thoroughly.
00:02:17The pufferfish is really three.
00:02:19But if you think that it's still a little hard,
00:02:22we can make it into four pufferfish.
00:02:24If it's not washed properly,
00:02:26its texture and appearance will be different.
00:02:28It won't be as shiny.
00:02:29They also don't put salt in it.
00:02:32The salt also causes it to become moist when it's in the bag.
00:02:36Sometimes, if the weather is bad,
00:02:38for up to five days.
00:02:39Now is the time for Puri Ring.
00:02:41They sell it for Php 80 to Php 200 per kilo.
00:02:46From July to the first month of the bear month,
00:02:50a lot of Puri Rings are caught in their ocean.
00:02:53I think it was born last December,
00:02:56that's why it's called summer.
00:02:57Then, it's called Puri Ring.
00:02:59It's called Puri Ring.
00:03:02I think it was born last December,
00:03:04that's why it's called summer.
00:03:05Then, it's called Puri Ring.
00:03:07People already notice it because it's already big,
00:03:0920 cm.
00:03:10That's why people can see that this is their season.
00:03:13These are not hard to catch.
00:03:16That's why when it comes to the market,
00:03:18the price goes down.
00:03:22The cleanest one that I can find in Perbanyera is Php 1,000.
00:03:25So, if I can finish 10 of them, it's Php 10,000.
00:03:29In making her Kinamatisang Tuyong Puri Ring,
00:03:33Laura will first fry the dry Puri Ring.
00:03:36Little by little so that it will get crispy faster.
00:03:41In a separate pan,
00:03:42she sautéed garlic and onion,
00:03:44tomato,
00:03:45and then added the fried dry Puri Ring
00:03:49and alugbati.
00:03:51Even if it's already dry,
00:03:52then you crunch it,
00:03:53then you saute it,
00:03:54it's softer,
00:03:55it's more delicious.
00:04:00Most pufferfish have a taste,
00:04:04but the Puri Ring has a lower concentration
00:04:08or taste compared to the Butete.
00:04:12In the Philippines, there are more than 30 species of Puri Ring
00:04:15and member of pufferfish.
00:04:17Most of them have a toxin.
00:04:19But the concentration or level of the toxin is different
00:04:23depending on the type or species of pufferfish
00:04:26and also depending on the part of their body.
00:04:28So the Puri Ring,
00:04:29if we look at the Arothron Manilensis,
00:04:31what's written there is that it's harmless.
00:04:34It means that it's often categorized
00:04:36that it doesn't have a high level of toxin.
00:04:39But it still has a toxin.
00:04:41That's why I think it became a practice of people,
00:04:43especially in coastal fishing areas,
00:04:46that they eat Puri Ring
00:04:48because in general,
00:04:49the toxin of Puri Ring or Arothron Manilensis is low.
00:04:54Art,
00:04:55not only does he know how to cook,
00:04:57but he also knows how to catch Puri Ring.
00:05:00Since high school,
00:05:01I have been accompanying my uncle in fishing.
00:05:04And his specialty,
00:05:06Linabog na Puri Ring.
00:05:10The caught Puri Ring is cleaned
00:05:13and boiled in a pot.
00:05:16We will add a little salt
00:05:19so that it will taste good.
00:05:22When it softens,
00:05:23remove the head and intestines of the fish one by one.
00:05:28Mash the meat.
00:05:34And then stir-fry.
00:05:37Next, add the coconut milk,
00:05:39seasoned to taste.
00:05:45And then add the Arothron Manilensis.
00:05:49And then add the malunggay leaves
00:05:52for substance.
00:05:54Linabog na Puri Ring is said to be more delicious
00:05:57when it is oily.
00:06:03But what Art will cook in the cooking competition
00:06:06is his specialty,
00:06:08Puri Ring Curry.
00:06:10Art's preparation is rare
00:06:12because the most delicious dish of Puri Ring
00:06:16will win the prize of 5,000 Pesos.
00:06:23Another winner of the CookFest,
00:06:25Ginny,
00:06:26will make her own version
00:06:29of Japanese street food
00:06:31using Puri Ring,
00:06:32Puri Ring Takoyaki.
00:06:39The cooked Puri Ring
00:06:41are grilled one by one
00:06:43and tasted by the judges.
00:06:46Who will be the winner of the Puri Ring dish?
00:06:50The winning Puri Ring dish
00:06:53in the Puri Ring Food Festival
00:06:56is the champion,
00:07:01Puri Ring Takoyaki.
00:07:04I'm so happy
00:07:05because I didn't expect that we will win.
00:07:07As a Dimasalangin,
00:07:08we are always looking forward
00:07:10to the month of July and August
00:07:12when we will have the Puri Ring
00:07:15because that is the season of Puri Ring.
00:07:17We will be able to taste
00:07:19the delicious Puri Ring
00:07:21where it is known to be cooked
00:07:23in Paksiw and Libas.
00:07:25For those who are afraid,
00:07:27let's try it.
00:07:28The Puri Ring is delicious
00:07:30even though it is from the family of Botete.
00:07:32It is delicious and it is not salty.
00:07:34In general,
00:07:35my advice is to be careful.
00:07:37If you can avoid eating,
00:07:38just avoid it.
00:07:39The best thing to do
00:07:41is to have a standard.
00:07:43For example,
00:07:44when we eat it,
00:07:45we know the level of toxin,
00:07:46we monitor it,
00:07:47and we have an advice
00:07:48on which part can be eaten.
00:07:50The taste of the Dimasalans
00:07:53in Masbate
00:07:54is not boring
00:07:56because they cook
00:07:59the Puri Ring deliciously.
00:08:08It is not a storm or a storm
00:08:10that brought a heavy storm
00:08:13to Boracay Island
00:08:15in Malay Aklan
00:08:16this week.
00:08:20But what we saw here
00:08:22was a storm
00:08:23and a storm
00:08:25of fire.
00:08:29This is the first time
00:08:30that we witnessed
00:08:31that there was a fire
00:08:33here in Boracay.
00:08:35How in the paradise of tourists
00:08:38suddenly there was a fire?
00:08:41Fire in Boracay?
00:08:44Fire!
00:08:45Fire!
00:08:50Just this morning,
00:08:52the hotel staff noticed
00:08:55as well as Marlon
00:08:56that there is a lot of mud in the sea.
00:08:59It's just like mud.
00:09:00We are not sure.
00:09:02But when it was also
00:09:03close to Dalampasigan,
00:09:05Fire!
00:09:06Fire!
00:09:07They came here
00:09:08in a hurry.
00:09:12Because they confirmed
00:09:13that what looks like a kiki-swimming
00:09:15to tourists
00:09:16is a crocodile.
00:09:19According to their estimate,
00:09:20it is 8 feet long
00:09:23and bigger than a human.
00:09:25We were also surprised
00:09:26and we were wondering
00:09:28why there is a crocodile here
00:09:30because we have been living here for a long time
00:09:32and it just happened today.
00:09:34The residents of Boracay,
00:09:36Philippine Coast Guard,
00:09:37the MDRRMO
00:09:39or the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office
00:09:43and the DENR
00:09:44or the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
00:09:47immediately headed to the crocodile's nest.
00:09:51To rescue the crocodile
00:09:53and keep the tourists away from danger,
00:09:55they caught it.
00:09:59They cooked it with mud.
00:10:03But it disappeared
00:10:04and drowned in the water.
00:10:06It went deeper
00:10:08but the waves pulled it back
00:10:10to the other side of the sea
00:10:11so it couldn't swim.
00:10:13At that time,
00:10:14there were already 30 residents
00:10:16waiting in Dalampasigan
00:10:18eagerly waiting
00:10:20for the next crocodile to be caught.
00:10:22At the end of the river,
00:10:24it swam back and forth.
00:10:25If there are a lot of people here at the end,
00:10:27it will swim back to the other end.
00:10:29So we were also chasing it.
00:10:31Until it swam back.
00:10:33It was only a few meters away
00:10:35from where it first saw it.
00:10:39They caught it again
00:10:40and caught it again.
00:10:44At first,
00:10:45they had a hard time catching it
00:10:46because their nets were small.
00:10:49But the crocodile was quick.
00:10:54So the fisherman, Jimmy,
00:10:56borrowed his net.
00:10:58We used a stronger net
00:11:00because the crocodile is big.
00:11:02We placed it far away from it
00:11:03so it won't escape the net
00:11:05so we can see where to put the net.
00:11:09After that,
00:11:10they slowly pulled the crocodile
00:11:12to Dalampasigan.
00:11:14We didn't feel scared.
00:11:15We were just chasing it.
00:11:16We were just helping it.
00:11:18When the crocodile arrived at the shore,
00:11:20the tricycle driver, Efren,
00:11:22pulled it hard
00:11:24to tie its mouth.
00:11:27Maybe three days
00:11:28after it saw it,
00:11:29I went to the crocodile
00:11:31and tied its mouth.
00:11:33The crocodile's body was swollen.
00:11:35It seemed to have been in the water for a long time.
00:11:37It didn't have a wound.
00:11:39Its body was fine.
00:11:41But maybe because of the strong waves,
00:11:43it seemed to be weakening.
00:11:46And so that it won't swim,
00:11:48they covered it with a blanket.
00:11:50The tied crocodile
00:11:52was put on a stretcher
00:11:54and was brought to the office
00:11:56of the City Environment and Natural Resources
00:11:58of Malay
00:11:59which is on the other side of the island.
00:12:02The crocodile,
00:12:03which is a Crocodylus porosus
00:12:05or saltwater crocodile,
00:12:07is now being cared for
00:12:09by the Community Environment
00:12:11and Natural Resources Office
00:12:13or CENRO of Malay.
00:12:15Its size is 250 cm
00:12:18or 2.5 meters.
00:12:20Its width is 25.5 cm.
00:12:25Its weight is 50 to 60 kg.
00:12:29Saltwater crocodiles
00:12:31really live in the sea
00:12:33or maybe not.
00:12:35They live in rivers
00:12:37that are connected to the sea.
00:12:39But here on Boracay Island,
00:12:43they have just seen it
00:12:45in the sea.
00:12:49This is the first time.
00:12:51It's really unexpected.
00:12:53It's a very rare occurrence
00:12:55on Boracay Island.
00:12:57That's why it's important
00:12:59to know where it came from.
00:13:01If we look at the wind direction,
00:13:03since it's in the sea,
00:13:05we can see that it was originated
00:13:07in Mindoro, Romblon,
00:13:09or Palawan,
00:13:11where there are crocodile populations.
00:13:13Or because of the flood,
00:13:15their cubs were able to come out.
00:13:17But as of now,
00:13:19there are no reported
00:13:21crocodile claims.
00:13:25Meanwhile, because of the crocodile sightings
00:13:27on Boracay Island,
00:13:29some residents and tourists
00:13:31are afraid to go near the sea.
00:13:33Of course, we are afraid
00:13:35of our safety.
00:13:37But should they be worried?
00:13:41Boracay is safe.
00:13:43All of our guardians
00:13:45are on high alert
00:13:47on our shores on Boracay Island
00:13:49to maintain the safety
00:13:51of all swimmers.
00:13:53At the end of Habagat
00:13:55and Nicarina,
00:13:57there was a flood.
00:13:59And it went viral.
00:14:01On Boracay,
00:14:03for the first time,
00:14:05there was a crocodile.
00:14:07Crocodile!
00:14:09Crocodile!
00:14:11Apparently,
00:14:13there are unusual things
00:14:15that we can still witness.
00:14:17Crocodile!
00:14:19Crocodile!
00:14:21Crocodile!
00:14:23Crocodile!
00:14:25There was a crocodile
00:14:27in the city of Malaybalay
00:14:29in Bukidnon
00:14:31that was attacked
00:14:33because it was able to walk
00:14:35even though it was covered with
00:14:37rags and mud.
00:14:39To see is to believe.
00:14:41This is not for
00:14:43those who have a weak heart.
00:14:45But for those who were able to recover,
00:14:47this is how they
00:14:49suffered.
00:14:51I'm already a year old.
00:14:53You're already a year old?
00:14:55The 20 infected patients
00:14:57who have not been able to walk
00:14:59for 8 years
00:15:01were tortured
00:15:03and punished.
00:15:05Crocodile!
00:15:07Crocodile!
00:15:09On the other hand,
00:15:11they were humiliated.
00:15:13Crocodile!
00:15:15But after the
00:15:17torture session,
00:15:19Crocodile!
00:15:21Crocodile!
00:15:23Crocodile!
00:15:25Crocodile!
00:15:27They were able to walk again.
00:15:29Crocodile!
00:15:31Crocodile!
00:15:33The woman in the video
00:15:35is a 70-year-old woman
00:15:37from Panabo,
00:15:39Davao del Norte.
00:15:41A few weeks after
00:15:43her treatment,
00:15:45here she is,
00:15:47able to walk again.
00:15:49When I was drafted,
00:15:51I was able to walk again.
00:15:53I can't imagine
00:15:55being able to walk without pain.
00:15:57In 2015,
00:15:59her knees were in trouble.
00:16:01I went to the doctor.
00:16:03They said it was a loss of fluid in the ligaments.
00:16:05What kind of medicine
00:16:07did she take?
00:16:09I thought it was a relief,
00:16:11but if it wasn't,
00:16:13I wouldn't be able to walk properly.
00:16:15It was too painful.
00:16:17For treatment and surgery,
00:16:19they sold 3 hectares of land.
00:16:21We spent more than
00:16:23P100,000.
00:16:25But it had no effect.
00:16:27Not only her knees,
00:16:29but also
00:16:31her hope
00:16:33that she would be able to walk again.
00:16:35Until
00:16:37someone saw her online.
00:16:39Many people saw her
00:16:41after the surgery,
00:16:43she was able to walk.
00:16:45So, this past month,
00:16:47from Panabo,
00:16:49she traveled for 5 hours
00:16:51to Balay City, Bukidnon
00:16:53to have her surgery.
00:16:55When we arrived,
00:16:57there was no ceremony.
00:16:59I was just lying down.
00:17:01I was already a year old.
00:17:03My body was aching.
00:17:05It was even more painful.
00:17:07It was so painful.
00:17:09But
00:17:11it was all worth it.
00:17:13She cried and cried.
00:17:15I cried,
00:17:17I cried.
00:17:19I was able to walk.
00:17:21Thank God.
00:17:27I can't imagine
00:17:29walking without pain.
00:17:31Ligamentous laxity is
00:17:33our knees.
00:17:35You can see it all over our body.
00:17:37Shoulder, neck, knee.
00:17:39They are the ones stopping
00:17:41excessive movement.
00:17:43Laxity is what
00:17:45softens or weakens them.
00:17:47There are no studies that
00:17:49massage or acupressure alone
00:17:51can treat or cure
00:17:53ligamentous laxity.
00:17:55If ligamentous laxity is mild,
00:17:57they can heal on their own.
00:17:59That's why we offer surgery.
00:18:01The ones who want
00:18:03to walk
00:18:05are Cesar.
00:18:07He doesn't have a clinic.
00:18:09He is the one who provides
00:18:11his treatment.
00:18:13He started with a walk.
00:18:15Then,
00:18:17I put it in my brain
00:18:19and applied it until it was true.
00:18:21It was only 7 in the morning
00:18:23when the doctors arrived.
00:18:29Cesar
00:18:31doesn't have a device
00:18:33or any ointment
00:18:35or ointment.
00:18:37His only instrument
00:18:39are his hands.
00:18:47I can't explain. It's so painful.
00:18:51It's so painful.
00:18:53I pressed the pain to heal.
00:18:55After many days of being pulled by Cesar,
00:18:57the callus on his hand
00:18:59has thickened.
00:19:01It's been more than 10 years.
00:19:03Richard
00:19:05came all the way from Baguio
00:19:07hoping to cure
00:19:09his MND
00:19:11or Motor Neurone Disease
00:19:13which is affected by his
00:19:15speech and movement.
00:19:17Ouch!
00:19:19Ouch!
00:19:21Ouch!
00:19:23Richard almost cried
00:19:25while Cesar
00:19:27pinched his foot.
00:19:29Ouch!
00:19:31If they don't scream,
00:19:33they will be dizzy.
00:19:35They should scream.
00:19:37It's better now that Richard
00:19:39can move his fingers.
00:19:41We came from New Zealand.
00:19:43It's so painful.
00:19:45It's so painful.
00:19:47It's so painful.
00:19:49It's so painful.
00:19:51It's so painful.
00:19:53He said there's no cure.
00:19:55I can see that there's an improvement.
00:19:57We're thankful that
00:19:59he gave us hope.
00:20:01He won't get better.
00:20:03He's incurable.
00:20:05There are treatments,
00:20:07but this is just to slow
00:20:09his progress.
00:20:11It's a progressive disease.
00:20:13Grandmother Francisca
00:20:15rented a tricycle
00:20:17from Valencia City
00:20:19to Malaybalay City.
00:20:21It's so painful.
00:20:23It's so painful.
00:20:25It's so painful.
00:20:27At first,
00:20:29Grandmother Francisca
00:20:31was nervous
00:20:33because of the screams
00:20:35of the patients.
00:20:37It's so painful.
00:20:39It's so painful.
00:20:41It's so painful.
00:20:43It's so painful.
00:20:45It's so painful.
00:20:47It's so painful.
00:20:49It's so painful.
00:20:51It's so painful.
00:20:53It's so painful.
00:20:55It's so painful.
00:20:57It's so painful.
00:20:59Grandmother Francisca
00:21:01has a history of trauma.
00:21:03Since then,
00:21:05she hasn't been able to walk.
00:21:07We can't say if it's a stroke
00:21:09or the reason why she can't walk
00:21:11is because of trauma.
00:21:13If it's because of trauma,
00:21:15she can walk normally
00:21:17but there are significant
00:21:19improvements.
00:21:21It's not like before
00:21:23when the patient is still young.
00:21:25Now, it's not allowed
00:21:27to walk in
00:21:29to give Cesar a ride.
00:21:31There should be a schedule.
00:21:33Like Alvina
00:21:35from Davao City
00:21:37who waited for two months
00:21:39before getting a slot.
00:21:41Alvina has been using a tricycle
00:21:43after a stroke.
00:21:45I've been using it for three months
00:21:47but I can't get up.
00:21:49In the hope that
00:21:51her 20s will come back,
00:21:53Alvina used up
00:21:55all of Cesar's strength.
00:21:57Ouch!
00:21:59And when she tried to run
00:22:01after getting a slot,
00:22:03she was very surprised
00:22:05when she was able to walk
00:22:07without needing to use a tricycle.
00:22:09I was shocked.
00:22:11I didn't know that
00:22:13she was able to walk.
00:22:15Even if you get paralyzed
00:22:17in the first weeks of your stroke,
00:22:19in the following months,
00:22:21you will recover somehow
00:22:23because our brain
00:22:25has its own way
00:22:27to heal itself
00:22:29especially if we combine
00:22:31physical therapy and rehabilitation therapy.
00:22:33Ouch!
00:22:35But where did
00:22:37Cesar learn
00:22:39how to use a tricycle?
00:22:41Cesar used to own
00:22:43a junk shop
00:22:45until he became interested
00:22:47in the so-called acupressure,
00:22:49a traditional way
00:22:51of stretching
00:22:53from traditional Chinese medicine
00:22:55that uses pressure
00:22:57to stimulate the point
00:22:59or part of the body.
00:23:01We use pressure points
00:23:03because we don't need healing.
00:23:05And not only does a human
00:23:07use a tricycle to walk,
00:23:09he also does
00:23:11nerve damage,
00:23:13stroke, sciatic nerves, migraine,
00:23:15insomnia,
00:23:17frozen shoulder.
00:23:19Even though there are
00:23:21some diseases that
00:23:23are hard to treat.
00:23:25Cancer, we don't use medicine,
00:23:27dialysis, catheter,
00:23:29new hospital, new surgery,
00:23:31that's why it's called mind over body.
00:23:33It's not all about healing because
00:23:35according to my research,
00:23:37the most common side effects
00:23:39when it's wrong is usually
00:23:41the place where it hurts is more swollen.
00:23:43Patients with deep venous thrombosis
00:23:45used to have
00:23:47bruises on their feet roots
00:23:49and when it's pulled
00:23:51or massaged,
00:23:53those bruises might spread
00:23:55and if it reaches
00:23:57the brain or the heart,
00:23:59you have a stroke or a heart attack.
00:24:01But that's very rare and usually
00:24:03we're trained to avoid that.
00:24:05Placebo effect, the patient may feel
00:24:07better after a treatment
00:24:09and it can be explained by
00:24:11possibly the wanting to
00:24:13get better. So because of that
00:24:15it could invoke the production
00:24:17of certain neurotransmitters
00:24:19such as dopamine or the release of
00:24:21endorphins. So a lot of it
00:24:23would be associated to
00:24:25pain relief. However, placebo
00:24:27effect does not cure
00:24:29the actual illness.
00:24:31I can't do anything if they don't believe me.
00:24:33I never ask for a penny.
00:24:35That's why it's a donation.
00:24:37Can we know how much
00:24:39your rate is per day?
00:24:41As long as it's big, per digit.
00:24:43To be honest, that's why I'm making this video.
00:24:45I just want to show that it can be treated
00:24:47without medication. I don't know how to monetize that.
00:24:49My son said,
00:24:51we can make money from this.
00:24:53If we make money, we can continue.
00:24:55But because Cesar is getting older,
00:24:57his patients are also
00:24:59getting older. His
00:25:01son, John, is his
00:25:03medical advisor. We also
00:25:05talked about helping him.
00:25:07It's okay.
00:25:09It's a reflection of the poverty
00:25:11situation in the Philippines.
00:25:13It still hasn't been resolved.
00:25:15The poverty and poverty
00:25:17in the whole healthcare system
00:25:19is different even from a faraway place.
00:25:21But they really know
00:25:23that it's better and cheaper.
00:25:25Let's say we can reach it.
00:25:27One.
00:25:29Because of the poverty,
00:25:31and the high cost of
00:25:33treatment, we have a lot of
00:25:35countrymen, especially in
00:25:37faraway places,
00:25:39who are ready to endure
00:25:41the pain and suffering for
00:25:43whatever it takes.
00:25:51This is the
00:25:53new trick
00:25:55to make money.
00:25:57You can make a million.
00:25:59But this is also
00:26:01the reason why
00:26:03there are more people
00:26:05who are in debt.
00:26:07This is
00:26:09what is bothering
00:26:11some of our countrymen.
00:26:13And it also
00:26:15wakes them up
00:26:17when they can win.
00:26:19For almost three years,
00:26:21I have earned more than 2 million.
00:26:23I bought appliances
00:26:25for my other businesses.
00:26:27A gamble that,
00:26:29according to the gamblers,
00:26:31makes them addicted.
00:26:33It became an addiction that I can't control.
00:26:35But because of
00:26:37this online casino game,
00:26:39their lives became scattered.
00:26:41I sold my car,
00:26:43my motorbike,
00:26:45my belongings.
00:26:47This is
00:26:49Scatter.
00:26:53Nice!
00:26:57In Zamboanga City,
00:26:59we met a businessman
00:27:01and a buccaneer,
00:27:03who participated in beauty contests.
00:27:05His name is Chesca.
00:27:09She admitted that she was addicted to Scatter.
00:27:11This is the only place where she played.
00:27:13My friend used to play.
00:27:15Her capital is about 5,000 pesos.
00:27:17She won almost
00:27:1970,000 pesos.
00:27:21Yeah! Double!
00:27:23Unlike other
00:27:25slot machine games,
00:27:27where you have to line up
00:27:29the same symbols,
00:27:31in Scatter, there are only three
00:27:33or more of the same symbols.
00:27:35Even if you don't line up,
00:27:37there is a prize.
00:27:41If the wild cards
00:27:43come out and the three coins
00:27:45with the indicated Scatter
00:27:47fall, that's the big win.
00:27:49You're fooling me.
00:27:51My first deposit is 5,000 pesos.
00:27:53And in her first slot,
00:27:55Double!
00:27:57I won 60,000 pesos
00:27:59in my first game.
00:28:01I won 70,000, 50,000,
00:28:03and 80,000.
00:28:05I bought a water dispenser, I bought a TV.
00:28:09But it's not Christmas every day.
00:28:11I also lost, lost, and lost.
00:28:13I fought against my ego.
00:28:15I deposited almost
00:28:1720,000, 80,000 pesos
00:28:19in my first game.
00:28:23I was so depressed.
00:28:25My world was spinning.
00:28:27I couldn't sleep for almost two days.
00:28:29Until Cheska
00:28:31lost her time in her games.
00:28:35I made a living from car wash,
00:28:37Wi-Fi, and lifestyle.
00:28:39I made a lot of money.
00:28:41But while I was focusing on my game,
00:28:43I lost everything.
00:28:45Cheska didn't notice
00:28:47that she was getting
00:28:49bigger and bigger.
00:28:51I was thinking about how to make up
00:28:53for what I lost.
00:28:55I sold my car, my two motorcycles,
00:28:57and my belongings.
00:28:59Because of the scatter,
00:29:01her relationship with her
00:29:03British fiancé,
00:29:05who is from the UK, was ruined.
00:29:07I lied to them.
00:29:09I told them I was going to visit them.
00:29:11But the real story is that I lost all my money.
00:29:13I borrowed and sold
00:29:15so that I could play games.
00:29:17From Wi-Fi, online selling,
00:29:19to car washing,
00:29:21I sold everything.
00:29:23One day, I realized that I lost everything
00:29:25that I deposited.
00:29:27In three months, I lost a million pesos.
00:29:31Before, you can see
00:29:33water dispensers here,
00:29:35and big TVs.
00:29:37Everything was lost.
00:29:39You can see a lot of bags here,
00:29:41but this is all that's left.
00:29:43Before, my shoes were full
00:29:45of expensive shoes.
00:29:47Now, they're gone.
00:29:49Before, my life was so comfortable.
00:29:51Now, I lost everything.
00:29:55Cheska was separated
00:29:57by her fiancé.
00:29:59He gave me a big opportunity,
00:30:01but I took it for granted.
00:30:03Now, she's also in debt.
00:30:05My balance is around
00:30:07P100,000.
00:30:10She can't even support
00:30:12her parents anymore.
00:30:14When we got sick,
00:30:16I couldn't give them anything.
00:30:18I felt like a useless person.
00:30:20I was shocked
00:30:22by what happened to her.
00:30:24I really couldn't do anything.
00:30:26I don't want to cry.
00:30:28I'm really telling her
00:30:30that it's such a waste.
00:30:34But now, Cheska
00:30:36is trying to get better.
00:30:39I'm trying to sell my life again.
00:30:41To my family,
00:30:43I promise that this time,
00:30:45I will focus on you.
00:30:50Arlene has a house.
00:30:52She doesn't have a real name.
00:30:54She just started playing
00:30:56Scatter this March.
00:30:58I won P100,000.
00:31:00Then, I won P2K.
00:31:02But because she was able to win
00:31:04because of her size,
00:31:06she grew the next shoes.
00:31:08I made P500,000.
00:31:10Maybe I can win more.
00:31:12I lost.
00:31:14I owe P5,000.
00:31:16I lost.
00:31:18Our budget went to buy food.
00:31:20I also cashed in.
00:31:22Instead of preparing
00:31:24for my son's birthday,
00:31:26I wasn't able to prepare
00:31:28because of the money
00:31:30I spent on gambling.
00:31:32Because of her consecutive losses,
00:31:34her head became hot.
00:31:36She was mad.
00:31:38She got angry.
00:31:40She borrowed money
00:31:42until one day.
00:31:44Someone called me
00:31:46asking for money.
00:31:48I told her that I have money.
00:31:50She told me to use it.
00:31:52She lied to me.
00:31:54She told me that she invested
00:31:56online.
00:31:58My husband paid for it.
00:32:00But because he was desperate
00:32:02to get back the money he lost
00:32:04I told my husband
00:32:06that I will ask for money
00:32:08to sell.
00:32:10He gave me P20,000.
00:32:12But Arlene's lies
00:32:14were exposed by Mr.
00:32:16I was angry. I didn't want to see him.
00:32:18I didn't talk to him. I wanted to leave him.
00:32:22I thought of making money
00:32:24and gamble.
00:32:26Because of their son,
00:32:28who was still dependent on Jerry,
00:32:30he couldn't forgive her.
00:32:32But Arlene
00:32:34didn't stop.
00:32:36She kept on borrowing
00:32:38from her relatives
00:32:40so that she could
00:32:42have something to scatter.
00:32:44I thought of winning
00:32:46if I could help with the expenses.
00:32:48And this time,
00:32:50she lost
00:32:54P70,000.
00:32:56I was mad at her.
00:32:58You can't do that.
00:33:00It's a kid's money.
00:33:02I just used our savings
00:33:04to pay her debts.
00:33:06I just thought of myself.
00:33:08I didn't think of them.
00:33:10It was like an addiction
00:33:12that I couldn't control.
00:33:14I didn't gamble.
00:33:16I told her,
00:33:18you're just at home.
00:33:20You can't see my sacrifice.
00:33:22Even if it's my day off,
00:33:24I go home to earn money.
00:33:26I didn't dream that
00:33:28I lied.
00:33:30I wasted the money.
00:33:32It was hard to earn.
00:33:34I just kept on gambling.
00:33:38She apologized.
00:33:40She said she wouldn't do it again.
00:33:42She said she would change.
00:33:44Would Jerry be able to forgive
00:33:46his wife who was addicted
00:33:48to scatter?
00:33:50If you do it again,
00:33:52I'll leave you.
00:33:54Even if we have kids.
00:33:56It's like a gambler's fallacy.
00:33:58When you bet,
00:34:00let's say you lost.
00:34:02You think,
00:34:04since I lost,
00:34:06I'll win the next bet.
00:34:08You'll bet again.
00:34:10You'll say you lost again.
00:34:12First of all,
00:34:14you have to keep them away
00:34:16from the addicts.
00:34:18If you can't control gambling,
00:34:20if you can't get simple counseling,
00:34:22they'll go to a therapy center
00:34:24to get rid of their addiction.
00:34:28To pay her debts,
00:34:30Arlene is working
00:34:32as a service crew.
00:34:34She's changing.
00:34:36She doesn't get angry easily.
00:34:38We're getting back at her.
00:34:40I'm thankful to her
00:34:42because she didn't leave me
00:34:44right away.
00:34:46She didn't take me.
00:34:48Definitely, no one wins
00:34:50and becomes rich from gambling.
00:34:52If you win a bet,
00:34:54you'll want to gamble again.
00:34:56It's called easy money.
00:34:58Second, if you lose,
00:35:00you'll want to make up
00:35:02and do everything
00:35:04to win again.
00:35:06Invest in mature ways.
00:35:08If you have enough money,
00:35:10you can save and save
00:35:12on important things.
00:35:14But we also have
00:35:16other guests who play
00:35:18this online game
00:35:20on their own.
00:35:22It's not a bad thing
00:35:24as long as you control yourself.
00:35:26If you're unlucky, just quit.
00:35:28I have a goal every day.
00:35:30If I lose P500, I'm out
00:35:32because I can't finish the game.
00:35:34If I win, I cash out
00:35:36my discards right away.
00:35:38The extra money is for gambling.
00:35:40The online game platform
00:35:42that Cheska and Arlene
00:35:44are playing
00:35:46can be found on the official website
00:35:48which means
00:35:50they're licensed.
00:35:52Our team emailed
00:35:54the official who promotes
00:35:56this online game
00:35:58to ask for their comment
00:36:00on the cases of Cheska and Arlene
00:36:02but they didn't reply
00:36:04to our message.
00:36:06But in our research,
00:36:08there are many sites
00:36:10where you can play this game.
00:36:12We tried to ask for a statement
00:36:14about the cases of addiction
00:36:16This is an online game
00:36:18but they didn't ask for a statement
00:36:20because they're still worried
00:36:22about their relief operations
00:36:24because of the typhoon,
00:36:26floods, and floods.
00:36:28Don't try this
00:36:30because your life will be ruined
00:36:32if you're not rich from gambling.
00:36:34For mothers like me,
00:36:36just quit because
00:36:38your family will be ruined.
00:36:40No matter what kind of gambling,
00:36:42it can be a vice.
00:36:44It's up to you
00:36:46how you can control yourself
00:36:48so that your life
00:36:50won't be destroyed
00:36:52and ruined.
00:37:14This is what we witnessed
00:37:16in the combined forces
00:37:18of Super Typhoon Carina
00:37:20and Habagat
00:37:22last Wednesday.
00:37:24Along with the rapid
00:37:26flow of the Marikina River,
00:37:28the typhoon
00:37:30of Marikina
00:37:32and the typhoon
00:37:34of Marikina
00:37:36and the typhoon
00:37:38of Marikina
00:37:40and the typhoon
00:37:42of Marikina River.
00:37:44It's going to hit.
00:37:46It's going to hit.
00:37:48The typhoon
00:37:50would have hit
00:37:5213 barges and boats
00:37:54under the F. Manalo Bridge
00:37:56in Pasig City.
00:37:58It's going to hit.
00:38:00It's going to hit.
00:38:02It's going to hit.
00:38:04It's going to hit.
00:38:06It's going to hit.
00:38:08It's going to hit.
00:38:11It came from the upper marquina.
00:38:13Maybe the barge's line broke.
00:38:16The grandmothers of the barge were shocked.
00:38:20There were five people trapped in the barge.
00:38:23The rescue of the victim was delayed until dawn.
00:38:27It's dangerous. The flow of water is strong.
00:38:40The rescue of the victim was delayed until dawn.
00:38:55The victim was brought to the hospital by the BIP.
00:38:58The rescue of the victim was delayed until dawn.
00:39:07The eruption of Super Typhoon Karina
00:39:10was almost the same as the eruption of Typhoon Ondoy
00:39:14that hit Metro Manila in 2009.
00:39:18The rescue of the victim was delayed until dawn.
00:39:24The flow of water is very strong.
00:39:32Because of the strong flow of water,
00:39:38the old man had to use a rope to save himself.
00:39:43This bus from Quiapo
00:39:48crashed on G. Araneta Avenue in Quezon City
00:39:51where the water level was more than one meter.
00:39:54I noticed that the water level was rising.
00:39:57I told the driver to go back.
00:40:03After that, he was still driving until the engine died.
00:40:09When the engine died, he was the one who got in the water.
00:40:13He was the one who got in the water.
00:40:17The passengers inside the bus were screaming to get out.
00:40:23It was more chaotic when the passengers noticed
00:40:26that the water level outside reached the window.
00:40:30The flood came in.
00:40:34When we were inside, it was scary.
00:40:36We were scared because the engine died
00:40:38and we couldn't open the door.
00:40:39The responding rescuers were inside the windows
00:40:42that were being closed one by one.
00:40:55After almost half an hour,
00:41:01all the passengers were rescued.
00:41:06I felt like it was my second life.
00:41:14The changing of the time,
00:41:16its serious effect,
00:41:18and how we should prepare for it.
00:41:21The mission of the Resilience Institute
00:41:24of the University of the Philippines in Diliman
00:41:26helps in the investigation of disaster risk reduction
00:41:30and management in the Philippines.
00:41:32In the Philippines, Dr. Mahar Lagmay is in charge.
00:41:36Mahar, what is your assessment of the flood?
00:41:39We can't deny that the rain was heavy.
00:41:44According to the forecast,
00:41:46it was more than 400 millimeters of rain.
00:41:49It exceeded the value of Ondoy.
00:41:52Although Ondoy delivered the rain within 6 hours.
00:41:57Even so, the rain was heavy.
00:41:59When the rain hit the ground,
00:42:03it would accumulate and flow to the rivers.
00:42:06So it was really a volume.
00:42:08Well, that's the primary reason.
00:42:09When there's a lot of rain,
00:42:11there's a lot of water in the river.
00:42:13If there's a lot of water in the river, it will overflow.
00:42:15At the rate things are going, Mahar,
00:42:17can we still solve the flood?
00:42:21Or should we just accept that it's part of our lives?
00:42:24It's a complex problem.
00:42:26But let's accept that we're in a time-food belt.
00:42:28There's a lot of storm, a lot of rain.
00:42:30Those rains are meant to flood the floodplains.
00:42:36So we need to be smart.
00:42:39Let's use technology.
00:42:41And let's avoid flooding in natural areas.
00:42:46That's where urban planning comes in.
00:42:49We're also going to talk about reclamation.
00:42:52So given our current situation,
00:42:54what do you think about the huge reclamation projects happening now?
00:42:59What effect does this have on flooding, if any?
00:43:02It has.
00:43:03In fact, in scholarly articles,
00:43:05there are those who say they link reclamation with aggravated flooding.
00:43:10Can we reimagine Metro Manila?
00:43:15So that the situation is better managed.
00:43:18What I'm saying is, don't overdo it yet.
00:43:20Because the population will grow.
00:43:23There will be climate change.
00:43:25There will be floods.
00:43:26So the problems we're experiencing now will only get worse.
00:43:30Isn't it the right time to think about how we can decongest the overcrowded metropolis?
00:43:37Because the flood control project that we loaned to the World Bank
00:43:42is worth around P358 billion.
00:43:45That's what we did in Metro Manila.
00:43:48Roughly P1 billion a day.
00:43:50It's not just about interventions and infrastructure.
00:43:54Because there are so-called soft solutions.
00:43:57Plan it well.
00:43:58Just like there, you'll see that subdivision on the floodplain.
00:44:02People will rush there because it's a natural part of the river.
00:44:07So it should have a zoning ordinance.
00:44:09Don't just stand there.
00:44:11We even took a helicopter to study the Marikina River.
00:44:14Then you can see from the aerial shot that
00:44:17that subdivision should not have been there in the first place.
00:44:20There are a lot of things like that.
00:44:21Because when the river turns like that, of course, you'll be the first to get hit.
00:44:26And there are a lot of similar scenarios that you're describing all over Metro Manila,
00:44:32all over the Philippines.
00:44:34Because if it doesn't rain,
00:44:36they're okay.
00:44:37It's dry, the land is beautiful.
00:44:39Oh, it's okay to build here.
00:44:41Oh, it doesn't flood here.
00:44:42The problem is, there's climate change.
00:44:44What used to be unbearable can now be experienced.
00:44:48The UP Resilience Institute
00:44:50has created an interactive map that is of great help to Filipinos
00:44:55whenever there is a flood, like this one,
00:44:58the Project NOAA or the Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards.
00:45:03We have a website, noaa.up.edu.ph
00:45:07and you can find hazards in your area.
00:45:12What's the code to be safe?
00:45:14There, it says hazard levels, little to none, little to none, little to none.
00:45:19Oh, that's the answer.
00:45:20That's it.
00:45:22The Interactive Map of Project NOAA is very detailed.
00:45:26You can find the landmarks and your exact address.
00:45:31And you can find out if your area is flooded
00:45:35and not only Metro Manila is covered by the Interactive Map of NOAA,
00:45:39but the entire Philippines.
00:45:43In this Facebook Live with Rodriguez Rizal,
00:45:46you can see how the flood was affected by the floodwaters of Carina and Habagat.
00:45:54Dexter and Erson were shocked when suddenly...
00:45:58Hey, someone's looking for someone.
00:46:00Someone's looking for someone.
00:46:01There was a man wearing a helmet and wearing a capote.
00:46:05We saw him go straight to the bank.
00:46:07Someone's looking for someone.
00:46:11The bank was located 20 meters above.
00:46:15I saw him fall when I saw him.
00:46:18Troy immediately pointed at the man who fell, but he didn't see him.
00:46:24Hey, someone's looking for someone.
00:46:27Meanwhile, Journey, whose house was built near the river...
00:46:31When I opened the door, I suddenly saw someone.
00:46:34What he saw was none other than the man who was thrown into the river.
00:46:39Even though he was weak, he was still alive.
00:46:43Someone's looking for help.
00:46:44And I couldn't do it alone.
00:46:46So I called my nephew.
00:46:48This is where they found Troy's grandfather.
00:46:53His pants were short.
00:46:55And there were a lot of them.
00:46:57We just carried him upstairs.
00:46:58It's not cold anymore?
00:46:59It's cold.
00:47:05The man who was also thrown into the river, is now recovering in the hospital.
00:47:11He is the security guard, Argel.
00:47:14They put an X-ray and ultrasound on me to make sure that there was no bleeding.
00:47:20I only damaged the outside.
00:47:23I have 42 stitches here.
00:47:25I haven't been able to get medicine yet.
00:47:28Let's go to the back.
00:47:29Let's go to the back.
00:47:31That's it.
00:47:32That's all I can do.
00:47:34According to Argel, he was on his way home from work when he was stranded due to the heavy rain.
00:47:40I waited for more than an hour.
00:47:43I could feel my body giving up because I was being trampled.
00:47:47That's why he first stopped the motorcycle.
00:47:50In the middle of crossing the river, a big wave hit me.
00:47:54Suddenly, my whole body became weak.
00:47:58I don't know, I just let go.
00:48:00I was being carried away.
00:48:01Someone is being carried away, guys!
00:48:03Next thing he knew, he was heading to Bangin.
00:48:07Lord, take care of me.
00:48:09Until he fell.
00:48:11My body was wet.
00:48:13My head was wet.
00:48:14I really felt my body sinking.
00:48:20When I was at the bottom of Bangin,
00:48:22I was holding on to a tree so I wouldn't fall and go far away.
00:48:27I was holding on to a tree.
00:48:30Fortunately, the three men who saw him were kind-hearted.
00:48:39When I saw Joseph, he asked for help.
00:48:41All the helmets were stuck in my head.
00:48:45Maybe that's why I didn't have a head injury.
00:48:53This Thursday, Argel went home.
00:48:57For all the help you gave me, I am truly grateful.
00:49:05This Friday, he was visited by Najerni, Troy, and Gio.
00:49:10Good morning, sir.
00:49:12Sir, thank you so much.
00:49:15Don't mention it, bro.
00:49:16It's necessary.
00:49:17It's the life of a man.
00:49:18Thank you so much.
00:49:19I'm the one who saved you from the fire.
00:49:21And the one who saved me from the water.
00:49:28The one who saved me from the water.
00:49:30I was stuck in the pool.
00:49:31He was already weak then.
00:49:33Thank you so much for your help.
00:49:36It's nothing, bro.
00:49:38I really thought that no one would help me in that place
00:49:43because I didn't know there were people there.
00:49:46I am truly grateful to you for everything you did for me.
00:49:53Thank you for saving my life.
00:49:56You can save anyone.
00:49:58You saved me from a nightmare.
00:50:01Thank you so much.
00:50:02You can save anyone in that kind of situation.
00:50:05You have to do what you have to do
00:50:07because your family will be sad if you let it go.
00:50:10My whole family is grateful to you.
00:50:17Water pollution in Metro Manila is not a simple problem.
00:50:22It's very complicated.
00:50:25And there are a lot of problems.
00:50:29It's a mess.
00:50:31Just like the garbage that was washed away by the flood.
00:50:35Is there a solution?
00:50:36If you ask me, I would recommend urban planning.
00:50:40Decongest.
00:50:41If the place is well-planned,
00:50:44and there are a lot of places like that in the Philippines,
00:50:47Indonesia did it.
00:50:49Indonesia transferred their capital.
00:50:52Actually, a lot of people sat and discussed there.
00:50:55But what I heard,
00:50:57what I feel is sensible,
00:50:59is to decongest and do good urban planning.
00:51:02So, if the place is well-planned,
00:51:04and there are a lot of places like that in the Philippines,
00:51:07Indonesia did it.
00:51:09Decongest is to decongest and do good urban planning.
00:51:12It looks like a very serious issue of flooding and pollution.
00:51:17It will continue until it is solved,
00:51:20according to Director Loretta Malaluan of DPWH.
00:51:25It's like so many odds are against us.
00:51:27Is that how it is?
00:51:28There's a high tide,
00:51:30the elevation of Metro Manila is low,
00:51:33the volume of rain is high.
00:51:36So, Director Malaluan, is that right?
00:51:38We just need to accept that we are really flooded.
00:51:41Is that how it is?
00:51:42In my opinion,
00:51:44we cannot say that there is zero flooding here in Metro Manila.
00:51:50So, what we are looking at is how fast is the flooding.
00:51:54How fast will they move out of our rivers?
00:51:59We will really flood.
00:52:01What we can do is to speed up the flooding, right?
00:52:06Yes.
00:52:07What we can also do is,
00:52:10why does BGC not flood?
00:52:13Because BGC has a retarding basin.
00:52:17This is also what we are looking at right now.
00:52:20We are looking for a place where the flooding can be stopped.
00:52:25And when there is no more rain,
00:52:27and the water level in our rivers is low,
00:52:31then we will move out or use the flood water for other purposes.
00:52:36Did our anti-flood projects not work?
00:52:40Almost all of our pumping stations are operational.
00:52:43What happens is that the water level in our rivers is high
00:52:47because of the heavy rain.
00:52:49So, we cannot pump out our water.
00:52:52It just comes back.
00:52:54Another thing is,
00:52:55we know that the garbage that our fellow citizens
00:52:59continuously throw in our estuaries and creeks,
00:53:04as we can see now,
00:53:06after the flood,
00:53:08there is a lot of garbage that we are cleaning now.
00:53:11It's just a complicated problem, right?
00:53:13Yes, it's really complicated.
00:53:15It's like, it's hard to find a solution, right?
00:53:19Maybe we should start with ourselves
00:53:22so that we can help each other.
00:53:24Because the national government alone cannot do it.
00:53:28There are people here, guys!
00:53:30Flooding in Metro Manila has been going on for decades.
00:53:35Hundreds of billions are being spent for anti-flood projects.
00:53:41But every year, we are still flooded.
00:53:44So, while the problems of flooding are not being remedied or solved,
00:53:53there is just one problem,
00:53:55and it's still going on.
00:53:58Hey, someone is drowning!
00:54:00Someone is drowning!
00:54:03There is a special contest in Iloilo.
00:54:06It's called,
00:54:08Palakasan ng Sigaw!
00:54:10To those who are happening in our country and life,
00:54:13do you also want to shout for strength?
00:54:23Oh, wait! Your voice!
00:54:26Reserve it first!
00:54:29Because shouting can earn money!
00:54:36Because here in the town of Sara in Iloilo,
00:54:39the strongest shout
00:54:45will win a trophy,
00:54:47merch or merchandise,
00:54:49and up to Php 500.
00:54:57Shout for their Loudest Mouth Challenge!
00:55:03Christopher's group is behind this motor show.
00:55:11The mechanics are simple.
00:55:12The strongest shout wins.
00:55:18They are wearing gloves so that their shout matches our decibel meter.
00:55:23This is used to measure the motor speed.
00:55:27This is also what we used to measure how loud their shout is.
00:55:31I got 126.7.
00:55:35If your eardrums are ready,
00:55:38let the competition begin!
00:55:41We are surrounding you!
00:55:44First up, let's make some noise for the aspiring criminology student,
00:55:50RV!
00:55:51Left!
00:55:52Right!
00:55:54RV has a strong heart.
00:55:57He has passed 10 Loudest Mouth Challenges,
00:56:01of which he has won 3 times.
00:56:04And to relax his eardrums,
00:56:07I am applying ginger to my eardrums
00:56:09so that my shout won't be too loud.
00:56:13I am wearing a mask and a jacket
00:56:15so that my face won't be visible
00:56:17because I am shy.
00:56:19There are a lot of people here.
00:56:20Who is shy here?
00:56:21I am buying food and expenses for the house.
00:56:29Contender 2 is the basketball player,
00:56:33SIMACMA.
00:56:34I am good at basketball.
00:56:36I can pass, break, pass,
00:56:39and I can even do a money combo.
00:56:44To be honest,
00:56:46he just tried to join the Loudest Mouth Challenge.
00:56:52But his friends rejected him.
00:56:56SIMACMA says,
00:56:57just don't watch his crush
00:57:01so that he won't get jealous.
00:57:03I am shy because I am from the Philippines.
00:57:12The last contestant,
00:57:14the youngest contestant
00:57:15to pass the Loudest Mouth Challenge,
00:57:17is the small but terrible,
00:57:1913-year-old CMJ,
00:57:21the son of Mylynn.
00:57:24CMJ is really good at shouting,
00:57:27especially when he plays online games.
00:57:34I tell him to lower his voice
00:57:36because he is always shouting.
00:57:38His brother always scolds him.
00:57:40But they told him not to wait
00:57:42for his mother, Mylynn, to get angry
00:57:44because they are sure that they will beat him up.
00:57:47I told him to stop shouting.
00:57:49He will buy a bike.

00:59:10Be careful!
00:59:11He did it on purpose.
00:59:12I was shocked.

00:59:16CMJ.

00:59:44so you can be the winner.
00:59:50The winner is
00:59:54RV.
00:59:55The money I get from Loud Dismount
00:59:57is what I spend on the environment
00:59:59and inside the house.
01:00:01Hey!
01:00:03But the experts have a reminder.
01:00:05The vocal cords are the ones
01:00:07that are really affected.
01:00:09It can be swollen,
01:00:10it can be scratched,
01:00:11and eventually,
01:00:12it can cause vocal trauma.
01:00:14Let's take care of our voices,
01:00:17let's breathe it in,
01:00:19and let's avoid doing things
01:00:21that are abusive to our vocal cords.
01:00:24All participants are safe
01:00:26because before they play,
01:00:28the safety responder will check them.
01:00:31Mac!
01:00:32Mac!
01:00:33There's also a reason
01:00:34why in this contest,
01:00:36they shout
01:00:37while the person in front of them
01:00:39is a woman.
01:00:40We don't treat women
01:00:42as a source of entertainment
01:00:44or entertainment.
01:00:46We should look at them
01:00:48based on their abilities
01:00:50and who they are.
01:00:52We don't intend
01:00:53for our show or event
01:00:54to be a blasphemy.
01:00:57For those who have negative comments,
01:00:59I would like to apologize.
01:01:02What's inside our hearts,
01:01:04don't stop,
01:01:06let's shout it out together.
01:01:08One, two, three.
01:01:16There's a woman in Davao del Norte
01:01:18who hasn't been able to play for a few days
01:01:21because there's something
01:01:23that seems to be wrong
01:01:25with her vocal cords.
01:01:34What happened in Davao del Norte
01:01:36has caught everyone's attention.
01:01:40This morning, July 9,
01:01:42Amanda, Amanda's wife, woke up
01:01:44and she didn't say her real name
01:01:46because her vocal cords were hurting.
01:01:49Later, I was embarrassed.
01:01:50It's really different.
01:01:51It's like there's something wrong.
01:01:52At first,
01:01:53she said she was just pinching her vocal cords.
01:01:55The next morning,
01:01:57I was pinching my vocal cords at home.
01:02:01In the afternoon,
01:02:02her private part of her body
01:02:04started to hurt.
01:02:06So she went to a maternity clinic
01:02:08with her eyes closed.
01:02:10I was scared, ma'am.
01:02:11I didn't know where to start.
01:02:13I was embarrassed.
01:02:14I didn't know what was happening to me.
01:02:16The patient was panicking.
01:02:18The first thing she said was,
01:02:20she was going to have an operation.
01:02:22I said, ma'am, why?
01:02:25There was something left inside.
01:02:28There was something left
01:02:29that belonged to your husband.
01:02:32Gia, who was panicking,
01:02:34immediately examined Amanda's private part.
01:02:38I put her on a speculum.
01:02:40Ma'am was still shaking.
01:02:41I said, ma'am, just relax.
01:02:44Her eyes grew bigger
01:02:47from her eye to eye.
01:02:59This is where Amanda's story
01:03:01happened last night.
01:03:06On the night of July 8,
01:03:08Amanda and her husband, John,
01:03:10were having an argument.
01:03:12John wasn't her real name.
01:03:15But in the middle of their argument,
01:03:17she suddenly stopped.
01:03:20Oh no!
01:03:21It's gone!
01:03:22She said it's gone.
01:03:23What's gone?
01:03:25She looked for it.
01:03:27It's gone.
01:03:28We didn't see anything.
01:03:29It really went inside.
01:03:31I said, what went inside?
01:03:33She said, it just went inside.
01:03:34It really seemed like something was moving.
01:03:36I didn't know what.
01:03:37I was really scared.
01:03:38What if it went inside somewhere?
01:03:40She said, let's take it out from inside.
01:03:43John took a speculum.
01:03:45I said, don't.
01:03:46What if something happens to me?
01:03:49But the next day,
01:03:50Amanda wasn't comfortable anymore.
01:03:53That's why she had a check-up.
01:03:56When I opened the speculum,
01:03:58the first thing that came to my mind
01:04:00was that it was really big.
01:04:02The ma'am was careful
01:04:03when she took the speculum
01:04:05from Amanda's husband.
01:04:08And she was surprised at what she saw.
01:04:13This is what it looked like
01:04:15when I took it from inside the ma'am's room.
01:04:21What is this?
01:04:22Oh my God!
01:04:23It was really big.
01:04:25I took it out and threw it away.
01:04:30I can't believe that it really went inside.
01:04:33It was really big.
01:04:37A loud noise.
01:04:43She was crying.
01:04:44She was shocked when she saw it.
01:04:46Next,
01:04:47what did the ma'am see
01:04:50even though it was sexual
01:04:52that affected the relationship
01:04:54of the couple?
01:04:56Let's talk about it
01:04:58eye to eye.
01:05:00I can't believe that
01:05:02it really went inside.
01:05:04She improvised the movement.
01:05:06When I took it out,
01:05:08I threw the speculum.
01:05:10It was like there was something inside.
01:05:13Back to our story.
01:05:20Mrs. Mula Davao del Norte
01:05:22suffered from appendicitis.
01:05:24And when she went for a check-up
01:05:26at the maternity clinic,
01:05:28what she found
01:05:30in her private part of the body
01:05:34was this.
01:05:35The first thing that struck me
01:05:37was her big eyes.
01:05:40It was like there was something inside.
01:05:43She was shocked when she found out
01:05:48that there was a knot in her hair.
01:05:52Yes, there was a knot in her hair.
01:05:55She used Mr. Miyamanda's
01:05:57improvised sex toy.
01:06:00It stopped suddenly.
01:06:02Oh no, it was removed.
01:06:04It was removed.
01:06:05What was removed?
01:06:07She looked for it,
01:06:08but it was gone.
01:06:09I was really angry with my husband.
01:06:11Why did he think of doing that?
01:06:14She improvised the movement.
01:06:16When I took it out,
01:06:18I threw the speculum.
01:06:20They called it the Blue Evil Eye.
01:06:22What was it?
01:06:26The Evil Eye
01:06:27was like a pair of blue eyes,
01:06:29black and white.
01:06:30It was believed to ward off evil.
01:06:33It was designed
01:06:35on earrings, bracelets,
01:06:37and even hair ties.
01:06:40There was a knot up here.
01:06:42It looked like a knot.
01:06:45It could have introduced an infection.
01:06:47And because it was really a hair tie,
01:06:50I said,
01:06:51do you know this is dangerous?
01:06:52We don't know
01:06:53how many pieces of hair were inside.
01:06:55It got stuck in the hair tie
01:06:56and was left inside.
01:06:59It spreads fast.
01:07:00When it's inside,
01:07:02it can go to the pubic hair.
01:07:04There were no signs of bleeding.
01:07:06There were just a lot of mucous.
01:07:08That's what got stuck in the eye.
01:07:10It was like a big eye that was twitching.
01:07:13Good thing it was removed.
01:07:17Mr. Miyamanda
01:07:18refused to be interviewed.
01:07:20But according to Amanda,
01:07:21they were already suspicious of each other.
01:07:24He was angry.
01:07:25Maybe he thought
01:07:26that what he got was dangerous.
01:07:29What he put inside me.
01:07:30His wife shouldn't have put
01:07:32such things inside.
01:07:34They didn't know
01:07:35what could be dangerous.
01:07:36Maybe there was a fiction
01:07:37or what else.
01:07:38His wife got sick
01:07:39because of what they put inside.
01:07:40It depends on how much
01:07:42you put inside.
01:07:44It's okay if there's nothing.
01:07:46It's better if there's nothing.
01:07:47You can experiment
01:07:49and use sex toys.
01:07:51But of course,
01:07:52they should still be guided
01:07:54by our doctors.
01:07:56We really recommend
01:07:57to explore
01:07:58and to add pleasure
01:07:59because it's very important
01:08:01for the sexual intimacy
01:08:02and long-term relationship
01:08:04of the couple.
01:08:05However,
01:08:06according to the experts,
01:08:08using improvised sex toys
01:08:11is very dangerous.
01:08:13If there's something
01:08:15that was put inside
01:08:16and you're going to have sex,
01:08:17it's like friction.
01:08:18It will get worse.
01:08:19There will be an infection.
01:08:20The infection will go inside
01:08:22your uterus.
01:08:23It will go to your tube.
01:08:24If it gives birth,
01:08:25how will it give birth again?
01:08:26Or some people
01:08:27will have their uterus removed
01:08:28because they gave birth too much.
01:08:30The next time this happens,
01:08:32if there's something inside,
01:08:34what you should do
01:08:35is go to the doctor right away.
01:08:37Get a check-up right away.
01:08:38I hope you also think about
01:08:40the well-being of your spouse.
01:08:42Don't just think about pleasure.
01:08:44Remove it!
01:08:45After this happened
01:08:46to the couple,
01:08:47It's normal.
01:08:48When we were having sex,
01:08:50I also touched him first.
01:08:51He was laughing.
01:08:52I said,
01:08:53what did I touch?
01:08:54I said,
01:08:55I'm just sure that
01:08:56you really didn't put anything inside.
01:08:57But Amanda
01:08:58is still preparing for a disease.
01:09:00Sometimes,
01:09:01my uterus hurts,
01:09:03but it doesn't go away.
01:09:04So,
01:09:05we consulted her
01:09:06to an OB-GYN.
01:09:09There's really an infection.
01:09:11There's inflammation.
01:09:12Her cervix
01:09:13has scratches
01:09:14and discharge.
01:09:15I need to start
01:09:16her on antibiotics.
01:09:17You don't have contact
01:09:18for two weeks.
01:09:20She's afraid
01:09:21that the tick-tock will go away.
01:09:22I told her,
01:09:23don't repeat what she did
01:09:25because it's limited.
01:09:26What if something happens to me?
01:09:28Sexual intercourse
01:09:29is still taboo
01:09:31or avoided by most people
01:09:34because of fear
01:09:35or shame.
01:09:36But in reality,
01:09:37it should be discussed
01:09:38openly
01:09:39so that we can know
01:09:41if it's good
01:09:43or bad
01:09:45for the body.
01:09:46What is
01:09:47improvised sexual intercourse?
