00:00Women's t-shirt is a product of reselling in the market.
00:06The brand is unique and there is a history behind the design.
00:11The product is known for its cheap cost and is known for its durable quality,
00:18it is also known for its safe and safe ability to maintain.
00:25A women's T-shirt was declared sent from America to a recipient in Bacolod City, but 468 grams of marijuana kush is the contents of the parcel sent to the Central Mail Exchange Center in Pasay City.
00:38Its standard value is P655,000.
00:42Another parcel also came from America, a collectible camera film roll-down to Cebu City.
00:48But it contains 96 boxes of marijuana oil worth more than P5,000.
00:54P6.5 million worth of marijuana kush is the contents of a parcel from Pakistan and was named to a recipient in Nagaka Marina, Sur.
01:03The Bureau of Customs was turned over to the parcels that were sent to PDEA.
01:08In Dalampasiga, Sanchez Mira, Cagayan, two fishermen found a bag containing marijuana kush.
01:14It weighs more than 1 kilo and is worth more than P1 million.
01:19Just last week, a parcel containing marijuana kush was found by the coastline of Ilocos Norte.
01:26For GMA Integrated News, I am Joseph Morong, your Saksi.
01:31Another news in Saksi, the price of LPG will rise on the first day of August.
01:36Petrol will be sold at a price of P30 per kilo of their LPG.
01:41That's equivalent to P3 more than the price of a regular tank.
01:45Sulane is P27 more than the price of their LPG, or almost P3 more than the price of a regular tank.
01:55Shabu is worth more than P20 million in Las Piñas City, which is hidden by solar lights.
02:02Nigeria is under arrest for shipping it abroad, including its live-in partner.
02:08Saksi, by John Consulta.
02:10It doesn't look like an ordinary package at first glance.
02:13The contents of this vehicle were seized by the NBI Special Task Force in Las Piñas.
02:19A Nigerian national and his live-in partner were arrested for shipping it abroad.
02:24This is your package.
02:25Yes, sir. This is the something that I sent.
02:27But when they opened it, some pieces of solar lights appeared with a package stuck inside.
02:33When NBI chemists examined the plastic inside the lights,
02:36NBI chemists examined the plastic inside the lights using their equipment.
02:41The result?
02:42It's a positive for methamphetamine hydrochloride, commonly known as Shabu.
02:46Actually, I don't know what is inside.
02:48Someone asked me to send it to Nigeria.
02:50To Nigeria?
02:51Yes, sir.
02:52According to the NBI, based on their informant,
02:55the shipment of drugs is being done several times by a suspect who is being supplied to their country.
03:01It's like when it comes from the Philippines, it will be shipped abroad.
03:06Something is wrong.
03:08Usually, from other countries, it will be brought here.
03:14But this one is different.
03:16From here, it will be brought to Nigeria.
03:183.87 kilos of Shabu was recovered in the operation, which is worth 26 million pesos.
03:25Two people were arrested for smuggling dangerous drugs.
03:30For the GMA Integrated News, John Consulta, your witness.
03:37An expert predicts that it is possible to recover from the most dangerous oil spill in the country,
03:41the sinking of MT Terranova in Lima, Ibataan,
03:44if the oil spill is not stopped.
03:47The problem is, the sinking of 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel has not yet started.
03:54In Cavite, where the oil spill reached,
03:56the oil spill sank eight places in the state of calamity.
04:00There is also a fishing ban in several coastal towns from Bacoor to Ternate.
04:05Your witness, June Veneracion.
04:11Until a while ago, someone was still fishing in Bacoor, Cavite.
04:15Many are still selling on the side of the road.
04:17Their product has not yet been affected by the oil spill.
04:21If there is oil spill, they will not fish anymore.
04:23They will stop fishing.
04:24Because it is a waste.
04:25It will be destroyed if it cannot be bought from us.
04:28Until a while ago, you were still fishing.
04:30Yes.
04:31This is the content.
04:33This is the content.
04:34The content is very good.
04:36Bacoor is included in the seven towns and one village in Cavite,
04:39which has been sunk in the state of calamity.
04:42A fishing ban was also implemented in several coastal towns,
04:45from Bacoor to Ternate.
04:47Handaro to Malimarito are the ones who are selling fish.
04:50If that's the case, there's nothing we can do.
04:54That's what they told us.
04:56Don't worry.
04:57Because the province will not allow our fishermen to go abroad and lose their livelihoods.
05:07We will immediately provide rice to help our fisherfolks.
05:15In Dalampasigan, Hulugan 3, in the town of Tangza,
05:18the provincial environment and natural resources collected
05:21the oil spilled from the sand and garbage.
05:25They collected 300 bags of garbage containing oil.
05:28As we observed, there are oil that is absorbed by the sand.
05:34That's why earlier, you can see that the oil comes out when you push it.
05:39So definitely, it's not possible to collect the oil.
05:44And it's really risky for the health and safety of the people who eat it.
05:50There are also people who witnessed dead fish.
05:52But they haven't been able to say if it's related to the oil spill.
05:56According to a resident, it seems that he also ate contaminated fish last night.
06:01That's what they said.
06:02We really tasted it.
06:06You don't feel anything right now?
06:07I don't feel anything.
06:09Did you eat a lot?
06:10I stopped eating because I tasted it.
06:14We received validated reports from our agriculturalist workers in their respective towns
06:22that the fish have odors.
06:25And we also saw fish scales where there is a lot of oil.
06:32The fish caught by our fishermen are also not easily available in the markets.
06:41The fish in the fish markets in Bataan came out safely.
06:45According to the sensory analysis of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources.
06:50In the management of our ground personnel,
06:53we didn't see any fish with traces of oil spill.
07:00First of all, take a look.
07:04If there is no trace of oil, that's okay.
07:07You will smell it, especially the smell.
07:11If you don't smell anything like that, that's also okay.
07:13But even if the fish is safe to eat, the fish market is already down.
07:17Even in the far part of Manila Bay, these fish are caught.
07:20First of all, they are fish.
07:22They are the first ones who are really scared.
07:24This one is 3.40 pesos.
07:262.40 pesos.
07:27If there is no oil spill?
07:28Yes, if there is an oil spill, it's 2.40 pesos.
07:30According to Capitolio, they are being provided with aid and food packs for them.
07:34There is a recommendation to declare another state of calamity based on the effects of oil spill.
07:39It is estimated that 17,000 fish in Bataan are affected by the calamity.
07:45The Department of Health is also in Bataan to find out the location of those fish.
07:49The situation seems to be improving.
07:51We haven't received any reports of illnesses related to this incident.
07:56This is what is called ground zero.
07:58The MT Terranova was flooded.
08:00It cannot be closed very closely because the diving operations are ongoing there.
08:06From the air, we can still see a little oil shale.
08:09But there is no more oil spill in the new sea surface survey of the Philippine Coast Guard in the area where the motor tanker was flooded.
08:16There is also no pain in the nose due to the smell of oil around.
08:19However, the 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel has not yet been filled
08:25due to the difficulty of resealing and re-capping or sealing of the ship's valves.
08:31We will talk to the salver to check their personnel.
08:35Maybe they can add more divers.
08:39According to the Philippine Coast Guard, the United States Coast Guard
08:43and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of America
08:47in rescuing the MTKR Terranova,
08:50it is important for the oil spill to be abated.
08:52Because if not, according to an expert,
08:55if that 1.5 million liters of oil spills out to the sea,
09:04that is in the Tier 3, the highest oil spill response in the Philippines.
09:10Of course, that has a huge impact on our environment,
09:14on our economy, on our livelihood, and on our health.
09:18A while ago, the DNR and TCG conducted a preventive inspection in the area of Dolomite Beach in Manila Bay.
09:25There is no confirmation yet if the oil spill reached that area.
09:29For GMA Integrated News, I am Jun Veneracion, your witness.
09:36A week later, after the MT Terranova sank,
09:39in Lima, Bataan, another ship sank in the town of Mariveles.
09:43According to the Philippine Coast Guard, there is an oil sheen and the smell of diesel in the area.
09:49Witness, John Consulta.
09:55Together with the people of the Bureau of Customs and TNR Bataan,
09:58the NBI investigated the sinking of the ship MV Mirolawan in the town of Mariveles.
10:04In their investigation, they were able to get a sample and examine the contents of two large tanks inside the wreckage of the ship.
10:12Inside it, they found that there was nothing left.
10:16And the water continued to enter the port side or its left side.
10:21The two large tanks were also found to be stuck and the water entered the sea.
10:26We are now here in the ship MV Mirolawan.
10:30As we can see, it is now stuck.
10:33But the biggest concern of the authorities is what we can see around this ship.
10:41And let's look at it from our point of view.
10:44This black liquid that the authorities are saying is oil that came from here, from MV Mirolawan.
10:56You can see in this video what is the effect of the oil on the surface of the water.
11:02In the distance, you can also see more than 20 drums that were lowered by the people of the ship before they left it.
11:09After the authorities saw the situation, they did not continue to get samples from the tanks of the ship.
11:15This is the tank, sir. This is the hole. It will not reach. It will not reach, sir.
11:23It's straight, right?
11:25Have you already talked to the collector?
11:27Yes.
11:28So that's his call. Just call him first because he really can't reach you.
11:31Do you have a connection to DNR PCG?
11:34DNR is here. I only know PCG.
11:37According to PCG, they are giving priority to MT Terranova because it is carrying heavy fuel oil.
11:44Motor tanker Mirolauna contains diesel fuel oil.
11:49Diesel fuel oil is considered to be a light type of oil which can dissipate when it is in the sea by natural weathering.
11:58Meaning, in the heat of the sun, the waves.
12:01There are people who are also deploying PCG to look at the situation in MV Mirolawan.
12:07For GMA Integrated News, this is John Consulta.
12:13We also have Atty. Harry Roque with us for the investigation of PAUC regarding the issue of POGO.
12:19The camera also captured a photo of POGO in Porac, Pampanga due to the snapping of the recordings.
12:26Witness, Tina Panganiban Perez.
12:31In front of Atty. Harry Roque during the recording of the camera about the POGO,
12:36he was left alone in a house in Benguet, which was raided due to the possible connection to the POGO,
12:42where two prostitutes were arrested.
12:45PAUC first said that one of the arrested was wanted for widespread fraud in China,
12:52and fraud with almost 200,000 people.
12:56I don't know these two people.
12:59I admit that I have an interest in the corporation that owns the house.
13:03With these developments, we will include former spokesperson, Atty. Harry Roque, in our investigation.
13:11Cassandra Lee Ong will be charged for the snapping of the cameras.
13:17Ong is the so-called bodyguard of Lucky South 99 POGO in Porac, Pampanga,
13:23who was accompanied by Roque to the court to ask about the unremitted payment of his company.
13:31Aside from the joint hearing of the House Committee on Public Order and Safety and the House Committee on Games and Amusement,
13:37the camera also plans to conduct an inspection of the POGO.
13:41Some leaders of the camera are expected to be here.
13:45Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Juan Ponce Enrile also faced a hearing,
13:50which he said was in accordance with the POGO ban declared by President Bongbong Marcos.
13:56I will kick out POGO in this country.
13:58POGO is a money laundering operation.
14:02He was accompanied by the son of the Administrator and Chief Executive Order of the Cagayan Economic Zone Authority, or CESA,
14:09who denied that there is a POGO there.
14:11I want to categorically state that there are no POGOs in the Cagayan Special Economic Zone and Freeport.
14:24There is a commentary of the father in accordance with the Executive Order No. 13 of former President Rodrigo Duterte
14:30for the Regulation and Licensing of Gambling and Online Gaming Facilities.
14:37It was ill-advised. They did not study it well.
14:41My God, POGO was banned by Cambodia, banned by many countries in Central Asia, and we adopted it here.
14:51And why is it that until now, you have POGOs in Bambang, in Borac, and without POGCOR being able to control them?
15:08Is that a wise decision, wise activity?
15:16Do you believe that Executive Order No. 13 that was issued by the former President Rodrigo Duterte was a mistake?
15:23Yes, sir.
15:25Okay. Because all the powers were transferred to POGCOR?
15:33Yes, sir.
15:34For the GMA Integrated News, Tina Panganiban Perez, your witness.
15:40A complaint of drug smuggling and grafts was filed by former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV
15:45against Davao 1st District Representative Pulong Duterte,
15:48second gentleman, Attorney Manz Capio,
15:52former Customs Chief Nicanor Feldon,
15:56and seven others,
15:58aside from some John and Jane Doe, or unknown persons.
16:02This is in connection with the 6.4 billion Pesos of Shabu,
16:05which was found hidden in five steel cylinders in a raid in Valenzuela in 2017.
16:11Congressman Duterte welcomed the development of the complaint
16:15so that he can answer these questions in a proper legal channel.
16:19He is innocent and he believes that the judicial process will clean up his name.
16:25No one is answering,
16:26even though the landline number of Capio's office is ringing,
16:30while his cellphone cannot be reached.
16:34No one is answering our emails,
16:36and we tried to call and text Feldon,
16:38but his numbers are no longer working.
16:42We are still looking for other names in the complaint.
16:47It's like playing a game.
16:49A trailer of what happened inside Middle Tennessee State University in America.
16:55The trailer was lifted and turned around before it fell from a distance.
17:01Meanwhile, equipment put the damaged trailer.
17:05No one was hurt, but some trees and pots of light were damaged.
17:10In the US National Weather Service,
17:11the so-called storm was formed due to the impact of thunderstorms
17:15which resulted in a wide range of severe storms in Tennessee.
17:20Alfredo Pascual, a member of the Department of Trade and Industry,
17:25signed the resignation of the Presidential Communications Office,
17:28which is effective on Friday, August 2.
17:32Pascual and President Bombo Marcos met at the palace,
17:35where the resignation was personally accepted.
17:39The President recognized Pascual's great contribution to the government.
17:44Even if things get worse,
17:45the President will still respect Pascual's decision to return to the private sector.
17:51Thank you for watching.
17:54I am Pia Artangel,
17:56for a bigger mission and a wider service to the country.
