00:00We are all in this together!

00:07Together!

00:14My fellow countrymen, it is shocking to see the movement of large waves in the Gulf of Mexico

00:19while the United States is being hit by Hurricane Milton.

00:22The waves reached a height of 8 meters.

00:26Aside from the flooding, the waves also brought floodwaters to Florida

00:30as well as earthquakes.

00:32Even Filipinos were affected by the waves.

00:35We will bring you more details later.

00:42According to the police, a man was shot and killed in Tayuman, Manila.

00:50According to the police, a group of people are fighting for the root of the crime.

00:54This is Jamie Santos.

01:00In this CCTV footage, a man was caught in a boat

01:05in the Panolocan of Tayuman Street and Abad Santos Avenue in Manila.

01:09Later, several men in motorcycles and tricycles approached him for rescue.

01:15The victim was transported to the hospital in a tricycle.

01:19The CCTV footage was not captured, but the man who was injured was still alive.

01:25The suspect in the shooting is now in the custody of the MPD Homicide Section.

01:30He surrendered to MPD District Director Arnold Thomas Ibay.

01:34This group of victims is waiting for a group of suspects

01:41where they are stealing cables to sell tanzos.

01:49This group of victims is waiting to steal.

01:54They also stole from the other group.

01:57I thought he was going to surrender, but he still had a knife.

02:02I thought he was carrying a gun.

02:05We stole from them.

02:08We were forced to do so.

02:10The suspect asked for forgiveness from the family of the victim.

02:14I'm sorry.

02:18I'm sorry, ma'am.

02:20I was caught in his boat.

02:22It's natural for him to ask for forgiveness,

02:24but he still had to pay for what he did.

02:27For JMAI Integrated News, this is Jamie Santos.

02:33A simple fire safety inspection

02:36was carried out at a resort in Mualboal, Cebu.

02:41Thirty-eight Chinese nationals were arrested without documents.

02:45This is Femarie Dumabok of JMAI Regional TV.

02:53If you look at it from the outside, it looks like a simple resort in Mualboal, Cebu.

02:57But when the authorities carried out a fire safety inspection,

03:01they questioned the Chinese nationals' guests.

03:05When they talked to them, no one knew English

03:08and no documents were shown, such as passports.

03:12We have exclusively rented this resort.

03:17Actually, this is not a high-end resort.

03:22If you look at it from the outside,

03:27you will suspect that there are unusual activities in the resort.

03:34This resort is located seven kilometers, more or less, from the highway.

03:40We think that this was purposely chosen to avoid the detection.

03:48Even though the neighbors noticed that within three weeks,

03:52the Chinese were allowed to enter the resort.

03:55They were sleeping.

03:58Did they get hurt, sir?

04:00They got hurt while they were walking.

04:03How did you see their activities, sir?

04:07They were walking around at night.

04:09And in the middle of the fire safety inspection,

04:12the Chinese saw various devices.

04:1534 sets of computers, 4 laptops, and more than 200 cellphones.

04:21The LGU suspects that there is a Pugo-like operation there.

04:26The LGU also insisted on inspecting the Pugo operation

04:31at a resort in Lapu-Lapu City a month after it was discovered.

04:36I believe that the Pugo operation should be used for different activities.

04:42But before that, I want to make a statement

04:47on the activities and presence of Pugo-like activities in the area.

04:54The PNP Region 7 is monitoring the Bureau of Immigration,

04:58Department of Justice,

05:00PNP Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit,

05:03and PNP Regional Anti-Cybercrime Unit 7.

05:06They are monitoring for Pugo-like operations

05:09like the one discovered in Lapu-Lapu City.

05:13For GMA Integrated News,

05:15I am Femarie, a reporter for GMA Regional TV.

05:19Your Saksi.

05:27Before Saksi,

05:28a tricycle driver was found dead on arrival at the hospital

05:31in Kalasyao, Pangasinan.

05:33He was stabbed by a Kapwa tricycle driver.

05:36A passenger was robbed,

05:38the cause of the fight.

05:39The people of the barangay immediately caught the suspect.

05:42He refused to give a statement

05:44while the police continued the investigation.

05:47But before the incident,

05:49the police found out that the victim and the suspect have been talking for a long time.

05:55The generation charge that Meralco will issue to its customers this October

05:59will be reduced.

06:01Aside from that,

06:02according to the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines,

06:04there is also a reduction in the transmission charge

06:07and Meralco's customers are not the only ones who may benefit.

06:10Saksi,

06:11this is Mackie Polido.

06:16When there is a crisis,

06:17there is a need to save money.

06:18And whenever Judit or Ang Judit knocks,

06:22it is passed through the disposal of many Filipinos.

06:25There are no more plans.

06:26When it comes out,

06:28it's only once a week.

06:30It's really hard.

06:31You will be in debt.

06:32Sometimes, you will be denied your debt.

06:33It is expected that tomorrow,

06:35it will be known if the increase or decrease in the transmission charge will be implemented this October.

06:39But according to Meralco,

06:40it is possible that there will be a reduction in the generation charge this month.

06:44That is due to the reduction of the transmission charge of the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market,

06:48or WESEM,

06:49due to the decrease in demand.

06:50Due to the cold weather,

06:52the collection of the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market of WESEM was also completed in May 2024.

06:57The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, or NGCP,

07:00also announced in advance

07:02that the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market will decrease in the Ancillary Service,

07:04or Reserve Ang Kuriente, this month.

07:06That is part of the transmission charge of 10% of the Meralco bill.

07:10For this month,

07:11as with last month,

07:12more than 50% of our billing is for Ancillary Services.

07:18And that proportion is largely driven by market prices in the Reserve Market.

07:27That is why P9 per kWh is expected to be reduced in Luzon

07:31and P2 in Mindanao.

07:33But the bad news is that P29 per kWh will be increased in Visayas.

07:37Those are pass-through charges

07:39and will not go to the NGCP.

07:41In February,

07:42the Reserve Market was sold.

07:44The NGCP needs to pay Php 5.7 billion to the consumers.

07:49They only paid Php 1.7 billion last July.

07:53The Energy Regulatory Commission is still waiting for the decision

07:56on when to pay the remaining Php 4 billion.

07:59The NGCP foresaw that they will have to pay more

08:03if they are forced to contract with the Reserve Ang Kuriente.

08:06But according to the Department of Energy,

08:08the Reserve Ang Kuriente needs to pay

08:10for a stronger supply.

08:12First, the system's reliability

08:14and so that we can avoid any yellow or red alerts.

08:18For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, your witness.

08:24Hurricane Milton is no longer on Florida's land in America.

08:28But through the Monster Hurricane,

08:30Florida is closed off due to the wind, storm surge,

08:34and every other storm that hit four lives.

08:37Our witness.

08:42The sound of strong winds and rain in Florida is echoing

08:46before Hurricane Milton lands there.

08:50The fallen trees just fell on the road.

08:54Almost nothing can be seen on the road

08:58and by the sea.

09:01Some of the current coasters were damaged.

09:06This house was destroyed by the storm.

09:10Not less than 11 inches of rain was felt in Florida

09:14before the storm hit.

09:16All this, this happened like instantaneously.

09:19These windows blew out.

09:20I was about probably right here when it happened.

09:23Probably one minute total.

09:28And when the hurricane lands,

09:32the rain falls hard on the houses

09:35like in Daytona Beach.

09:38It seems like the wind is also blowing.

09:41It swept the houses in Sarasota.

09:47While in St. Petersburg,

09:49this huge construction crane crashed into a house.

09:53The debris spread on the road.

09:56The roof of a stadium was also swept by the wind.

10:00The collapse in Tampa Bay

10:02was a result of the death of several traffic lights.

10:06The water level in this swimming pool

10:08in Fort Myers Beach was covered by flood.

10:12Other resorts were also flooded.

10:14The storm surge in Lee County also caused widespread flooding.

10:18Hurricane Milton landed near Shasta Key, Florida

10:22as a Category 3 hurricane

10:24with a strong wind that reached almost 200 kmph.

10:28But before that,

10:30its strength reached Category 5

10:33so it was considered a National Hurricane Center

10:36multi-hazard event.

10:38It was also called the 3rd fastest intensifying storm on record

10:42in the Atlantic Ocean.

10:44The storm surge was also experienced by Filipinos

10:47who live in Orlando City,

10:49including Joella Roberts.

10:51The wind was very strong

10:54and it was accompanied by tornadoes.

10:57So we had to be safe.

10:59Ania was chosen by her family

11:01to stay at home and not to move.

11:04We just prepared noodles, rice,

11:09and mostly water

11:11because that's the first thing people buy.

11:14In the south of Tampa, Judy lives.

11:17Several streets near the swimming pool were flooded.

11:21The wind was very strong and it was raining.

11:25Other areas, especially the coastline near the sea,

11:30were also flooded.

11:32I put shutters on the windows of the houses

11:36so that the windows wouldn't break.

11:40Judy said,

11:42this hurricane is very strong.

11:44We've been here for 4 years.

11:46We just moved from Maryland.

11:48This is the strongest hurricane I've experienced.

11:52Storm surges are expected in the same areas

11:55that were also affected by Hurricane Helene.

11:58More than 20 residents were affected

12:00by Hurricane Helene in America.

12:03According to international media,

12:05more than 4 people were affected in St. Lucie County.

12:0920 million residents in Florida and Georgia

12:12are still under Hurricane and Tropical Storm warnings.

12:15More than 1 million houses and establishments

12:18were also affected by Hurricane Helene.

12:21Hurricane Wilton is expected to sweep

12:24the Florida Peninsula before leaving for the Atlantic.
