00:00The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council is remaining heightened alert while monitoring the new typhoon.
00:22According to NDRMC, the monitoring of the typhoon will continue along with the augmentation or addition of food and non-food items
00:29for our countrymen who are affected by the typhoon Christine and Leon.
00:32According to President Marcos in his blog,
00:35the priority of the government is to help the victims of calamities along with the various agencies.
00:41It is expected that the local disaster risk reduction response will be strengthened
00:45because the Philippines is at high risk of the effects of climate change.
00:53The price of fish in some markets is still very high.
00:56According to some sellers, the effects of the typhoon Christine and Leon are still there.
01:00Live from Pasig, EJ Gomez is the first news. EJ.
01:10The price of fish is still high after the next typhoon.
01:15Here in Pasig Megamarket, the price of a kilo of galunggong has reached Php 300.
01:22That's why a group of fishermen are now pushing for price control for their type of fish.
01:32Two weeks ago, the price of fish in some markets is still very high.
01:38According to some sellers in Pasig Megamarket,
01:40because of the effects of the typhoon Christine and Leon,
01:43the trucks carrying fish are not able to travel so the supply is limited.
01:47They are also selling fewer fish because the number of fishermen caught by the typhoon is low.
01:53Because of the typhoon Christine, two weeks ago, the price of fish in some markets is still very high.
02:01Because of the lack of vehicles and the damage to the fishponds, that's why it happened.
02:08The price of galunggong is also high.
02:12That's why we are selling it here.
02:15In September and October, the price of fish is high.
02:22According to a group of fishermen,
02:27not only the typhoon and fishermen are the reason for the increase in the price of fish in the market,
02:31but also there are some traders who manipulate the price of fish in the market.
02:36They say that the price of fish in the market is high even though the farm gate price of fish is low.
02:44Here in Pasig Megamarket, the price of galunggong is around Php 300 per kilo,
02:49which is around Php 240 to Php 260 before the typhoon.
02:53The fish is Php 200 per kilo, which was Php 170 before.
02:58The price of tilapia is also increased to Php 30 per kilo, which can be bought for Php 140.
03:04The price of lapulapu is increased to Php 60, which is now being sold for Php 420 per kilo.
03:11According to the traders, if there will be a price control,
03:14they should make sure that the price of the fish they buy is reasonable so that they won't lose money.
03:20Sometimes, we can buy fish at a low price.
03:22Sometimes, we can buy fish at a high price.
03:24So, if the price is low?
03:26We also sell fish at a reasonable price.
03:28We also sell fish at a low price.
03:29Now, the price is really high.
03:31It's not like before that you can buy fish for Php 20 per kilo.
03:33Now, it's just Php 55 per kilo.
03:41According to the fish price control,
03:45we will try to get the statement of the Agriculture Department and Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources or BFAR.
03:51When it comes to the sale of fish here in Pasig Megamarket,
03:54according to what we talked about the other day,
03:57their sale has become more profitable.
04:01And that is the first news from Pasig City, EJ Gomez, for GMA Integrated News.
04:08We are now in the SUV with license plate number 7.
04:11Ed is in the busway.
04:13We will talk to Jonathan Guzmundo,
04:16spokesperson of the Special Action and Intelligence Committee for Transportation of DOTR.
04:22Good morning.
04:24Good morning, Egan.
04:26Yes.
04:27Is the owner of the SUV already approved?
04:30Because the license plate number 7 is a Senator.
04:33It's a Senator.
04:35I will go to the office early so we can discuss it with the LTO
04:42and we can try to find out who is the owner of the vehicle that entered the busway.
04:51I also want to talk to the enforcer.
04:54As you saw in the video,
04:58there was a small collision with the vehicle.
05:01He was able to escape while getting his license and registration.
05:09He didn't move.
05:11Where exactly did this happen and at what time?
05:16It happened at 7 p.m. in the busway station in Guadalupe.
05:22He entered the busway and got his license.
05:29Our enforcers don't like this.
05:32This is just a job.
05:34He was able to escape.
05:36We saw it in the video.
05:40Based on your observation on the license plate,
05:43is this authentic or fake?
05:47It looks like a real 7.
05:51But we will find out in the morning at the LTO.
05:55We will trace who registered the vehicle.
06:00According to Sumita, does she know if there's a Senator in this vehicle or it's just a driver or staff?
06:10When we talked to the enforcer last time,
06:14he didn't recognize the driver in the back.
06:19But there's a driver and a driver in the back.
06:23We don't know if he's a Senator or just a staff.
06:27Yes.
06:29In the Senate, or any Senator, is there anyone who can help you Mr. Gismundo?
06:36Maybe this morning.
06:38Okay.
06:39That's why I'm asking you if you can investigate those who were involved in the incident this morning.
06:49We will consult with other agencies.
06:53How can you explain to the public that he escaped?
06:57If he's Guadalupe, where will this go?
07:03I see that you have other people in Medulo.
07:10Won't he be prevented from going there?
07:13Two enforcers helped the woman and the man.
07:17When they didn't want to talk to each other,
07:22the lady enforcer planned to go back.
07:28She went back until she reached the hole where there's no barrier and she escaped.
07:35She went out.
07:36But before that happened, the enforcer initiated her to record.
07:41This morning, we will see what the details of that incident are.
07:47Do you have anything to change in your apprehension that this is not the first time that these people who are in the busway are escaping?
07:57This is just an excuse.
08:00We have been saying for a long time that we are serious about the busway.
08:08Let's make this the most efficient road transport system for now.
08:14This is just an excuse for people not to use private vehicles and use public transport.
08:22Even Secretary Bautista should not use the busway.
08:30There are only five special pre-planned vehicles that can use the busway.
08:36That's all for the buses and emergency vehicles.
08:40Thank you very much, Spokesperson Jonathan Guzmundo.
08:43We will be in touch. Take care.
08:46Thank you very much, Egan. Good morning.
08:53Good morning, Kapusan.
08:54We are still here at Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange or PITX, particularly at Gate 3.
09:01This is the arrival area.
09:02We can see that the passengers from the provinces, particularly from Cavite and Bicol, are arriving one by one.
09:14Every three to five minutes, the buses arrive.
09:18That's why we can see that our fellow countrymen are arriving one by one.
09:24Many of our Kapuso are back to work.
09:27They are on vacation in the provinces of Undas.
09:29That's why we can see that around 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. or even beyond,
09:35our fellow countrymen are still arriving one by one to catch up with their arrivals at work and school.
09:43Here at the security check, the inspection of their belongings is being carried out.
09:51There are also K9 units here that will be inspected later to ensure the security here at PITX.
09:58Until later, it is expected that the arrivals and departures of the passengers here at PITX will continue.
10:06Meanwhile, Kapuso, after the long holiday weekend,
10:11we have a lot of fellow countrymen who are chasing to escape here in Metro Manila after their vacation in the provinces of Undas.
10:19How is the traffic situation here at the North Luzon Expressway?
10:23We have live news from Gea.
10:25Gea, how is the situation there? Is there still traffic?
10:30Maris, look from where I am standing.
10:34The heavy traffic here at the North Luzon Expressway is getting heavier.
10:39It wasn't like this earlier, but now the road is closing.
10:43According to the NLEX,
10:45the NLEX is still preparing for the arrival of motorists who will return to Manila at the last minute.
10:50Now that Undas is already closed.
10:56Earlier this morning, some motorists were chasing to return to Metro Manila from the province after Undas.
11:04It's better to travel in the early hours, not in the traffic.
11:08Last night, there was a lot of traffic.
11:11That's why we decided to go home early so that the road will be wider.
11:19Even though they are just traveling now, they will still go back to their work, especially since the long holiday weekend is over.
11:27Past 4 o'clock this morning, there were a lot of cars in Bukaweto, Alplaza, but it was still moving.
11:34The road was also wide.
11:36According to the NLEX, yesterday until this morning,
11:40they are still waiting for the arrival of motorists returning from their provinces.
11:58Earlier, we saw that they are still waiting for their counterflow or zipper lane in case of heavy traffic.
12:07Maris, based on the monitoring of NLEX, there is already high volume traffic from Marilao to Maycawayan.
12:14That's why their counterflow lane is already in effect.
12:17The patrolling of the road by NLEX continues in case the motorists need a reminder.
12:27And that's the first news from NLEX.
12:29Bea Pinlac for GMA Integrated News.
12:32Some of our countrymen might be able to go home or ride in Manila North Port Terminal.
12:39Some of them did not make it due to the long trip.
12:48Let's find out the latest situation in Manila North Port Terminal.
12:52We have live news from Bam Alegre.
12:55Bam, how are you?
12:58Maris, good morning.
12:59After a long holiday, the passengers continue to arrive here in Manila North Port Terminal
13:04to go home to their provinces by boat.
13:10Yesterday, the passenger, Jolito Mabilog, tried to go home to Dipolog.
13:14But he did not make it due to the long trip.
13:17Now, he is going back to Cali.
13:19It's okay because I am happy to go home.
13:23This is the 4th time that I extended my trip schedule.
13:28Now, it's okay.
13:30This will continue.
13:32In Thailand, Beng Lasso left Onda and now he is going back to Dumaguete.
13:37It's my first time to travel by boat, sir.
13:40First time.
13:42It's okay.
13:44It's okay.
13:45It's not hard to go here.
13:48It's okay.
13:49It's not hard to go here.
13:51They are among the passengers who chose to go home by boat to their provinces.
13:55Yesterday, according to the Philippine Coast Guard,
13:57more than 400 passengers traveled from Manila to Davao and Jansan.
14:02550 passengers traveled by boat from Manila to Cebu, Cagayan, and Iloilo.
14:08This morning, St. Francis Xavier's boat from Coron, Palawan is expected to arrive.
14:12It will travel to Cebu, Osamis, and Butuan.
14:15This morning, St. Michael Archangel will also leave for Dumaguete, Dipolog, and Sambuanga.
14:27Maris, estimated time of departure of this boat is 10 o'clock in the morning.
14:31More than 300 advanced passengers are already there.
14:34More than 200 are still waiting.
14:37So, it's advisable to be here around 8.30 or 9.00 in the terminal.
14:44This is the first news from Manila's North Port Terminal.
14:46Bamalegre for GMA Integrated News.
14:49The 2025 proposed national budget will be discussed in the plenary debates of the Senate in the coming weeks.
14:56They will discuss the fund of flood control projects and the excess fund of PhilHealth.
15:03Mav Gonzalez has the first news.
15:06The funds for flood control projects and for PhilHealth, which has an excess fund of P500 billion this year,
15:14will be discussed in the plenary debates of the Senate for the P6 trillion proposed 2025 national budget.
15:23It's a waste if we add the funds of PhilHealth.
15:26They won't use it.
15:29With 4% inflation, PhilHealth will lose P20 billion every year.
15:37They are not providing services to our countrymen because they are not spending the money.
15:43According to Senate President Cheese Escudero, the first priority of the Senate is to discuss the budget.
15:49The session will be held from Monday to Thursday to finish it quickly.
15:53Usually, the budget debates of the Congress will be held in the afternoon and sometimes in the morning.
15:58That's why the Senate President said that there will be no investigations while discussing the budget.
16:03I think we will be exempted for one or two days because we are being chased by one particular thing.
16:10I would like to mention that we are being chased by, if I'm not mistaken, the Bangsamoro election postponement.
16:18Escudero added that the funds of the Office of the Vice President could be reduced.
16:23But that depends on Senator Grace Poe, chair of the Senate Finance Committee.
16:27Vice President Sara Duterte also did not ask for confidential funds.
16:31Based on the hearings and statements of Vice President Duterte,
16:36it seems like she has no plans to remove her budget.
16:40This is not an issue of lowering the budget or not lowering it.
16:45This is an issue of finding a job to avoid the budget because the budget is always lacking every year.
16:53We are still trying to get the field of Vice President Duterte.
16:57This is the first news.
16:59Mav Gonzales for GMA Integrated News.
17:11This is the first day of the filing of the Certificate of Candidacy for the first Bangsamoro parliamentary elections in 2025.
17:19According to Commission on Elections Chairman George Garcia,
17:22in Panay and Super Radio-DCWB, more police and soldiers were sent to BARMM
17:28to ensure a peaceful COC filing.
17:32Until Saturday, November 9, the COC filing will be held in the region.
17:36Seventy-three Bangsamoro parliamentary positions will be held in 2025,
17:42from the original 80.
17:44It was rejected by the Communist Party.
17:46The Supreme Court declared in September that SULU will not be part of BARMM
17:51because the majority of the voters there did not vote for the Bangsamoro Organic Law in Plebiscito in 2019.
17:58In October, the Bangsamoro government said that they are appealing the issue of SULU to the Supreme Court.
18:06Meanwhile, Shining Inheritance star Kailin Alcantara showed us the Bayanihan in the time of calamity.
18:13Kailin is a personally distributed relief goods to those who were affected by Hurricane Christine in Barangay Tinago in Ligao, City, Albay.
18:22Kailin is a Bicolana from Camarines Sur.
18:25She also distributed aid to professional basketball player Kobe Paras.
18:30Speaking of Kobe, a basketball star confirmed in a local fashion magazine that they are already dating.
18:38That's after Kobe asked who his biggest celebrity crush is.
18:43He answered that it's Kailin.
18:45Kailin and Kobe have been spotted together several times.
18:50At the GMA Gala, Kobe told GMA News Online that they are great friends.
18:56Kailin told Fast Talk with Boya Bunda that Kobe is asking her out.
19:01Aww, you're so cute.
19:04Hello Love Against stars Alden Richards and Catherine Bernardo were brought to Ligao Online.
19:10Talk to me.
19:11No, I'm okay.
19:12No, talk to me.
19:13No, this is me.
19:16Alden and Catherine got married in the Imitate Each Other Challenge.
19:21They tried to imitate each other's gestures and actions when they were hungry.
19:26They took selfies and internalized heavy scenes on the set.
