00:42A Filipino fisherman is missing after his boat collided with a still-unidentified ship

00:47in the waters of Burrias Island in Masbate.

00:50The Philippine Coast Guard says Thursday, August 15, 23-year-old Roldan Marientes and

00:54his older brother Roland were aboard their motorized fishing boat when the collision

00:58happened at around 2 a.m. on August 10.

01:01A commercial vessel found and rescued Roland at around 11 a.m. the same day, but Roldan

01:06remains missing.

01:07The Coast Guard says it is coordinating with other fishers in nearby villages in its search

01:11for Roldan.

01:12No details about the colliding ship are available as of this reporting.

01:18A Social Weather Station survey says the net satisfaction ratings of the Senate and the

01:22House of Representatives suffered a slight dip in June 2024.

01:26The survey finds 66 percent of Filipinos are satisfied with the Senate's performance, while

01:3116 percent are dissatisfied with a net satisfaction rating of plus 50.

01:36This is five points lower than its net rating of plus 55 in March.

01:41Satisfaction with the Senate's performance was highest in Metro Manila at 68 percent,

01:45followed by the rest of Luzon and Mindanao at 67 percent, and Visayas at 64 percent.

01:50The satisfaction in the Senate was most notable in Luzon, excluding Metro Manila, where it

01:55increased to 16 percent from 8 percent in March.

01:58The survey results also show 60 percent of Filipinos are satisfied with the performance

02:03of the House, while 18 percent are dissatisfied for a plus 41 net satisfaction rating.

02:08This is four points lower than its plus 45 net satisfaction rating in March.

02:15The World Health Organization declares an mpox or monkeypox outbreak for the second

02:19time in two years, this following an outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and neighboring

02:24countries.

02:25WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declares the epidemic a public health emergency

02:31of international concern, or HEIC.

02:34HEIC status is WHO's highest level of alert and aims to accelerate research, funding,

02:40and international public health measures and cooperation to contain the disease.

02:45Mpox can spread through close contact.

02:47It causes flu-like symptoms and pus-filled lesions on the body.

02:51It is usually mild but can be fatal in rare cases.

02:54The Congo outbreak began with the spread of an endemic strain known as clade 1, but a

02:59new variant, clade 1b, appears to spread more easily through routine close contact, including

03:04sexual contact.

03:05Vaccines and behavior change help stop the spread when a different strain of mpox spread

03:09globally.

03:12Jeff Jacinto, known as content creator Iliad, is appealing to actor Mon Confiado to withdraw

03:17his cyber-libel complaint.

03:19Confiado filed a complaint against Jacinto over a copypasta post.

03:24In it, Jacinto described Confiado as acting rude in a fictitious grocery scenario.

03:28Jacinto says he wrote Confiado an online message asking him to discourage people from harassing

03:33him over the incident.

03:35Jacinto says the Iliad page is satirical and posts memes and humorous comments about pop

03:40culture.

03:41He says the post in question was his attempt to apply 4chan humor to Filipino pop culture.

03:46Before filing the complaint, Confiado had asked Jacinto to take down the post, but Iliad

03:50merely added a disclaimer note, after which the actor took legal action.

03:55Jacinto now says it was a big mistake that he didn't take down the post when Confiado

03:59asked him to.

04:02A poignant moment in the homecoming of Olympic double gold medalist Carlos Yulo.

04:07His father, Mark Yulo, was spotted in the crowd around Rojas Boulevard in Manila, waiting

04:12for the parade of his son and the other Filipino Olympians.

04:15He wasn't hard to spot.

04:16He held out a banner that said, "'Kaloy, your father is here."

04:20The move touched many social media users, especially amid the highly publicized feud

04:24between Carlos and his mother, Angelica.

04:27Meantime, pole vaulter EJ Obiena may have missed out on a podium finish, but he inspires

04:31fans with a message.

04:32Obiena says on social media,

04:43And that's today's wrap.
