00:00Vice President Sara Duterte and several congressmen are eager to hear the budget of her office for the year 2025.
00:08Breaking news, Tina Panganiban-Perez.
00:14Vice President Sara Duterte refused to answer any questions about confidential funds
00:20in the hearing of the House of Representatives on the request of more than 2 billion pesos budget of the Office of the Vice President.
00:26She was continued by ACT Teacher's Partylist Representative to a position.
00:56Madam Chair, point of order, Madam Chair, because it's like...
01:00So let's please proceed with the answer, Madam Chair.
01:02Point of order, Madam Chair, because it's like she's the one presiding.
01:05You need to explain it, so it can't be like that,
01:11the tactics like that, that's like, you know,
01:14like, sorry for the squid,
01:16that when the squid is already in the soup, it turns into a black ink.
01:20Why are you crucifying me for saying a fact
01:25that somebody is convicted of child abuse sitting in the chair?
01:35Squid?
01:36There was a congressman who motioned to erase from the records of the camera
01:40the correctness of the visa to Castro regarding child abuse
01:44that was erased by many congressmen.
01:47There was also a motion to erase from the records
01:50the correctness of the visa regarding the squid
01:52and what Castro said was that the confidential funds were illegally used
01:57but it was defeated by a vote.
02:00According to the Commission on Audit,
02:02more than P73 million out of P125 million of confidential funds
02:07of the OVP in 2022 were disallowed
02:11because there were not enough documents submitted.
02:14Almost P70 million was paid to the government as bribe
02:18or to buy various goods and medicines.
02:21I hope you can take a bath, Madam Chair.
02:25Thank you, Madam Chair.
02:27She may not like my answer.
02:32She may not like how I answer.
02:35She may not like the content of my answer.
02:38But I am answering.
02:41A colleague of the Vice President is defending.
02:43We have already taken action
02:46by removing the confidential funds of the Vice President
02:49in the 2024 budget.
02:53So I submit again, Madam Chair,
02:55this is not, I mean, if we're talking about oversight, yes,
02:58there is oversight of any House committee
03:01but not during the budget hearing of a specific year's budget.
03:07The President-Chairperson explained
03:10that it is important to discuss the confidential funds of 2022
03:14because it will have an effect on their decision
03:17on the budget of the OVP for the next year.
03:20Item number three is comparative budget allocation
03:25and utilization rate from fiscal year 2019 to 2023.
03:30That's item number three.
03:33So I can provide you copies of the letter.
03:36So clearly, confidential funds spent in 2022
03:42falls squarely within that.
03:45VP Sara also requested that Kimbo be replaced
03:48as the President-Chairperson.
03:50Please act in a respectful manner.
03:53I'm sorry, the firing of the President-Officer
03:56of this hearing is not within your power.
04:01I cannot fire the President-Chair.
04:03So why?
04:05Yes, we...
04:06Why is this so one-sided, Madam?
04:08Is it because there are many of you on the other side
04:10and I'm the only one here?
04:13The question was called a vicious attack.
04:15We saw the timelines and we saw the script
04:22in the narrative of the attack on the Office of the Vice President
04:26with regard to confidential funds.
04:28Absolutely no plan, any conspiracy,
04:34if I may use that word, to attack.
04:37If I also may use that word.
04:39We're just here to dilute the budget.
04:43She accused the House of Representatives
04:46of talking to impeach her
04:47because she refused to listen to some congressmen
04:49who she did not want to mention.
04:52I will not violate the confidence
04:54of a few members of the House of Representatives
04:57who have either recorded conversations
05:01or participated in shared conversations
05:05regarding each impeachment proceedings against me.
05:09Tina Panganiban Perez reporting for GMA Integrated News.
05:14A father and his son were injured in Virac, Catanduanes
05:17after they had a fight
05:19because they were involved in a misunderstanding.
05:22In Lipabatanga, a senior citizen was killed
05:24after he was hit by a motorcycle.
05:27This is the hot news brought to you by Denise Abante
05:30of GMA Regional TV.
05:34A man, a senior citizen,
05:36was hit by a motorcycle
05:38on the highway of Barangay Tambuli, Lipabatangas.
05:41Later, the man who was about to get hit
05:43by the motorcycle fell down.
05:45The man jumped and the rider immediately left.
05:50He didn't stay far from the middle of the road.
05:52He was just going sideways.
05:53The rider, he bumped into an old man.
06:00After that, when there were people there,
06:03when he stopped the motorcycle,
06:04he left at the same time.
06:05The victim was taken to the hospital
06:07but his life was also returned
06:09because of a blow to the head and body.
06:12The victim was told to go home
06:14from his family and friends.
06:16Suddenly, he suddenly got sick in my heart.
06:19He suddenly disappeared.
06:21He died. He was left behind.
06:25Authorities are reviewing the CCTV footage
06:28near the scene to track down the rider.
06:30We are also coordinating with the police of Lipa.
06:35We are continuously reviewing the scene
06:39of the barangay.
06:41The truth is, I came from there.
06:44They are already in San Jose.
06:48A cyclist and a motorcycle rider
06:51were both injured
06:52after colliding
06:54on Provincial Road of Barangay Kabanglutan
06:56in San Juan, Ilocos Sur.
06:58The motorcycle rider was bleeding.
07:00The 70-year-old cyclist was injured
07:03while he was being carried by the ambulance
07:04because of a severe head injury.
07:06The cyclist's father was about to cross the road
07:11when they bumped into the motorcycle.
07:15According to the authorities,
07:16it is possible that the rider did not see the victim
07:19especially when it was dark in the area
07:20and it was raining.
07:22The motorcycle rider also drank alcohol.
07:25If he did not have lights,
07:26he should have worn a protective gear
07:29like a helmet and a refractorized vest.
07:33Our uncle has a reflector.
07:37He also has a headlight and a flashlight.
07:41The motorcycle rider is still in the hospital
07:44while the two parties are still not talking.
07:47We need his help
07:49in repairing his vehicle.
07:51But if he cannot repair it,
07:55of course, we will bring him to the hospital.
07:59The father was severely injured
08:02after bumping into his house.
08:04According to the Verac Police,
08:06before the incident,
08:07the two had a misunderstanding
08:10that they both drank alcohol
08:12until the father of the family passed away.
08:16He took a knife from the kitchen
08:18and stabbed his son.
08:22The son stole the knife
08:23and hit his father in the neck.
08:26The two were immediately taken to the hospital.
08:29It seems like this is forgiven
08:32because they are family.
08:35It happened around midnight.
08:37They were drinking
08:41and that's why the incident happened.
08:45Denise Abante of GMA Regional TV
08:48reporting for GMA Integrated News.
08:51Two suspects were arrested in Manila
08:53for stealing a motorcycle
08:54from their neighbor's house.
08:56The motorcycle was recovered
08:57but it was not enough.
08:59The use of the motorcycle was not enough.
09:00Here is the hot news brought to you by Beya Pinla.
09:07This man was arrested for stealing
09:09a motorcycle from his neighbor's house
09:11in Barangay 122 in Manila.
09:13I didn't get the key from the top box.
09:17When the motorcycle was parked behind me,
09:19I tried to open the door
09:21but I thought I got the key.
09:25When he left the house a few hours later,
09:28his motorcycle was gone.
09:30There were three other suspects
09:32in the theft of the motorcycle
09:33that the man who was identified as Alias Mico.

09:38were arrested.
09:39Two of them were even searched by the police.
09:42The two escaped
09:44but the motorcycle was recovered.
09:46Those who stole the motorcycle
09:47were usually sold.
09:49But we are still looking
09:51at where they plan to sell
09:53or use the motorcycle.
09:55When the motorcycle was returned to its owner,
09:57there were items that were lost
09:58and were used from here.
10:00They removed the LED lights,
10:03the top box and the items inside,
10:06the tool box, to sell it.
10:09The arrested suspects admitted
10:11to the theft.
10:12I was sleeping.
10:13They said they will push the motorcycle
10:15and bring it to me.
10:17When I was still sleeping,
10:19I did it.
10:21It was my birthday that day.
10:23I didn't know that there would be a robbery.
10:25I didn't know that we were neighbors
10:27when the robbery happened.
10:29But if I knew, it wouldn't have happened.
10:32The suspects asked for an apology.
10:34However, the owner of the motorcycle
10:36decided to continue the complaint.
10:38The suspects are facing a complaint
10:41of violation of the Anti-Carnapping Law.
