00:00Sometimes, the solution to pollution can be found in the discovery of a plastic-eating bacteria.
00:16But what if a type of bacteria is used to make plastic so that it can be polluted?
00:23Come on, let's change the game!
00:30Almost everything in the world is made of plastic.
00:34It's true that 9.5 billion tons of plastic is produced worldwide.
00:41But the problem is that the plastic we make is petroleum-based,
00:45or the one that is formed by burning fossil fuels,
00:51so it also has an impact on climate change.
00:54What if we can make eco-friendly plastic that is not made from fossil fuels?
01:00And it's easy to biodegrade.
01:02Is that possible with the help of bacteria?
01:06Let's go!
01:09That's BHA, short for polyhydroxyalkanoates.
01:14It's a type of biodegradable plastic that is formed by the fermentation of bacteria.
01:21The best part?
01:22BHA bioplastics can decompose in just a month.
01:27Developed by the Biomaterials and Environmental Engineering Laboratory of UP Los Banos,
01:32headed by Dr. JRS Ventura.
01:35BHA plays an innate property of bacteria.
01:40It's the only type of plastic that can be degraded in any kind of environment.
01:45Its properties are almost the same as our traditional plastics.
01:49From bacteria to plastic?
01:51Sounds promising!
01:53That's why its research and development received funding from DOST since 2017.
01:59We collect from waste, from sediment samples, from bodies of water.
02:05We have more than 300 species or strains of BHA-producing bacteria.
02:09The process of obtaining and proliferating BHA-producing bacteria begins.
02:14Under the microscope, the indicator that the bacteria has BHA should be purple.
02:22We have multiplied the extracted bacteria.
02:26Now, we will put it in the fermentation media to proliferate the BHA content.
02:38After a day, it will undergo extraction and purification.
02:43And the BHA will be used as raw material in various bio-plastic products.
02:50From plastic bags to containers.
02:56Now, DOST gave us the opportunity to continue to scale it up.
03:01Dear friends, even if we don't change our needs for plastic,
03:05there are many ways to make it sustainable.
03:10For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Avier, changing the game!
03:15There is an increase in the price of oil products starting tomorrow.
03:20The price of each liter of kerosene will rise by 50 cents,
03:24while the price of diesel will rise by 75 cents.
03:27The price of gasoline will increase by 10 cents per liter.
03:32The other oil companies have not yet announced.
03:36It is now being studied the migration of thousands of Negros Occidentals
03:43due to the continuous activity of the volcano Canlaon.
03:47In the area of Fivox, the thick fog is visible due to de-gassing from the volcano.
03:54At present, it remains at alert level 2.
03:57Fivox continues to observe it,
04:00but it is not yet visible that the fog needs to be raised to alert level 3.
04:06In some barangays in La Castellana,
04:08there is a smell of smoke from the residents.
04:12But there is still no sign of ashfall.
04:16If this continues, more than 5,000 residents may be evacuated.
04:22What is the worth of a tragic truck?
04:25It is worth the payment for the house it destroyed in Laguna.
04:30So the family living in the house fell to your Kapuso Action Man.
04:39In a blink of an eye, Edna's family struggled to build their house this August 10.
04:46After the truck hit two cars, it hit their house.
04:51They were shocked because they thought it was a landslide.
04:54Even the TV viewers in the living room thought it was a landslide.
04:58That's why they suddenly ran upstairs.
05:01When they saw the truck that fell on us.
05:05There was no physical injury.
05:07It was all damage to property.
05:09The driver has criminal liability.
05:13While the owner of the truck has civil liability.
05:17But the Dailin family said
05:19they will not allow the owner of the truck to build their house.
05:24They always say it's a process.
05:27The insurance is in our hands.
05:31That's what they always tell us.
05:33They don't do anything.
05:35The house is flooded.
05:37We can't use that room.
05:40According to Kabinti Municipal Police Station,
05:42there was no complaint filed against the driver and the owner of the truck.
05:46The victims were involved in the accident because
05:49they had a settlement outside the police station.
05:56They had a settlement which we removed.
06:00When your Kapuso Action Man went to the company of the owner of the truck,
06:04they refused to allow an on-cam interview.
06:07But according to their operations head,
06:09they will continue their relationship with the Dailin family.
06:12Their insurance company has been waiting for a long time
06:15to pay damages to the victims.
06:17In our follow-up to the insurance company,
06:21we found out that the insurance company paid 150,000 pesos in damages.
06:26The Dailin family agreed.
06:28The check is ready.
06:29The family will just get it.
06:31Thank you very much for doing this for us.
06:41We are Mission Accomplished, Kapuso.
06:43For more information, send it to the Kapuso Action Man Facebook page.
06:47For any complaints, abuse, or misconduct,
06:50we have the right action for you.
06:52Kapuso Action Man.
06:54The head of the NCR Police Office complained
06:58about the raid in Malate, Manila against the scammers.
07:07Among the victims,
07:09the one who complained was Daniel Tincongco.
07:16Four Chinese nationals who were arrested by the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group
07:23in a raid on online scammers in Manila last week complained.
07:27This was to complain to the PNP NCRPO Chief Major General Sidney Hernia
07:32and 14 other police officers who were on the arresting team.
07:36Aside from the fact that the arrest was planned
07:38and they were not given their rights,
07:41the Chinese said that they tried to extort 1 million pesos
07:45or a total of 4 million pesos from the police.
07:48That amount was to give them a lawyer
07:51who is close to the NCRPO's boss
07:54so that they can be released immediately.
07:56They were forgiven up to a lower price of 2 million pesos.
08:00At this point, they asked for permission to call their families
08:04to prepare the money.
08:06But when they were able to talk to their relatives,
08:08they told them to get their own lawyer so that they can be released.
08:13Because of this, the police were forced to release them.
08:17Aside from the administrative complaint against the police
08:20that the Chinese nationals wanted,
08:22Hernia was given a preventive suspension
08:24so that he won't be influenced by the investigation.
08:28We are still trying to get the arrest warrant of Hernia
08:31and the Philippine National Police.
08:33The owner of a house in Manila will file a complaint
08:37where the PNP ACG conducted a raid.
08:40If the police were able to contact them before the raid,
08:43they will know that a different office is occupying
08:47the 23rd floor of the house where the police raided.
08:50This is a licensed POGO operator before
08:53whose license was revoked already last year.
08:56A simple phone call would have clarified
09:00that Vertex is no longer in this building.
09:04But that was not done.
09:07And what happened was they came charging to the 23rd floor
09:13and actually even the 32nd floor.
09:16But the PNP said that the company Vertex just changed its name.
09:20But both people are still operating.
09:22Well, they could always make their claims.
09:25They have the right.
09:27If they would like to question the validity and basis of the police operation,
09:32they are not precluded from doing so.
09:35But on the part of the PNP, I talked to the RD of the NCRPO.
09:39I also talked to the director of the ACG.
09:42They are standing by their police operations.
09:46The lawyer also showed the media videos of the movement
09:49of the police on some CCTVs on the 23rd floor
09:53after the implementation of the search warrant.
09:55Although it is still unclear who moved on the CCTV
09:58and when this happened.
10:00There's a possibility of people trying to avoid accountability
10:04on how they're moving on the 23rd floor.
10:07Under the rules, there has to be a body-worn camera
10:10when you effect a search.
10:12Even that, making sure that the CCTV will not see your movement
10:17is a highly questionable act.
10:19The PNP responded.
10:20They have the right to file a case.
10:23But as far as the PNP-ACG is concerned,
10:26they're still treating the 23rd floor of Century Tower as a crime scene.
10:31So the processing is still ongoing.
10:33During the operation, they were with the SEC and PAGPOR.
10:39For GMA Integrated News, I'm Don Ating Kuhong, for 24 Hours.
10:44Along with the midterm elections next year,
10:47the first regular election for the Bangsamoro Parliament
10:52or what is officially called the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region
10:56in Muslim Mindanao or BARM.
10:58It is important, especially the establishment of Bangsamoro
11:01is the result of a long battle
11:04for the residents to have a wider decision-making
11:09in the government of the region.
11:11The first fruits of the peace talks were the former Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
11:15or ARMM that was established in 1989
11:18and was formed by Basilan, Lano del Sur, Maguindanao, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi.
11:24They were also included in the replaced BARM in 2019.
11:29But in a plebiscite to strengthen Bangsamoro,
11:33the majority of the votes were cut in Sulu.
11:37That's why only this September, Sulu was not included in the Bangsamoro
11:41when the Supreme Court strengthened its constitutionality.
11:45And because of the change,
11:47the Senate was allowed to hold a plenary session
11:51for the election in Bangsamoro.
11:54Here is the statement of Efren Mamak of GMA Regional TV.
12:02The filing of the Certificate of Candidacy for the first Bangsamoro Parliament
12:06was held in May,
12:08in conjunction with the 2025 National and Local Elections.
12:12But there is talk now of a possible change of election
12:16for the members of the Bangsamoro Parliament.
12:19There was a question of how many bodies should be elected.
12:23Under the Bangsamoro Organic Law,
12:25which was established by BARM,
12:2780 seats in the Parliament should be filled.
12:30But in the Supreme Court's decision,
12:32Sulu left the territorial jurisdiction of BARM
12:36because it did not vote for the ratification of the law in Plebiscito in 2019.
12:41According to the Commission on Elections,
12:43instead of 80, only 73 will be elected
12:47because the seven district representatives should not be included in Sulu.
12:52We will conduct the election based on 25.
12:56As long as it's not 32, Sulu should be included.
12:59How will the 80 seats be filled
13:03because only 73 will be elected
13:06is not in the jurisdiction of the Commission on Elections,
13:09either in the Congress or in the Bangsamoro Parliament.
13:13The Senate plans to postpone the parliamentary election in BARM
13:17to address the issue.
13:19In order to amend the laws,
13:23aside from the case of Sulu,
13:25there are more than 100 barangays
13:28that have a municipality but no province and no district,
13:32particularly in North Cotabato.
13:34BARM is made up of Basilan, Lanao del Sur, Maguindanao, and Tawi-Tawi.
13:40Garcia said,
13:41their preparations for the Bangsamoro elections are ongoing.
13:45We want to show that Comirex will not be affected
13:48by those who will be fired
13:50because, again, as long as there are no laws,
13:53the Commission on Elections is prepared.
13:55We will finish the filing of the candidacy.
13:58For now, the implementation of the security of the police
14:01in the COC filing will continue until Saturday, November 9.
14:06From Jimmy Original TV, Efren Mamac,
14:09for 24 Hours.
14:11Peke is the senator who used a white SUV
14:15to enter the EDSA bus lane even though it's prohibited.
14:18According to the LTO,
14:19they confirmed this to Senate President Cheese Escudero.
14:23Based on their investigations,
14:25the SUV doesn't have a security feature
14:28that should be present in black senator's license plates.
14:32The number 7 license plate should also be used
14:35at the back and front of the vehicle.
14:37The man in front of the vehicle
14:40was given a security aid by the passenger
14:43at the back of the VIP driver.
14:46But according to Senator Escudero,
14:48it still needs to be determined who owns the vehicle
14:51because of its violation of the law.
14:56Lookout Bulletin Order.
14:58The Office of the Vice President recommended
15:02a resource person to a committee in the Chamber
15:06because they are not yet involved
15:09in the acquisition of confidential funds.
15:12Tina Panganiban Perez was involved.
15:18In order to prevent the country
15:20from acquiring a resource person
15:22of the House Committee on Good Government
15:24and Public Accountability,
15:25the committee wrote to the Department of Justice
15:28to issue a Lookout Bulletin Order
15:31against the seven officials of the Office of the Vice President.
15:34The committees' invitations
15:37to the investigation
15:39on the use of confidential and intelligence funds
15:42have been snapped several times.
15:45Officials are being monitored by the camera
15:48because they have a subpoena from the camera.
15:51As long as there is no such thing,
15:54we cannot stop it
15:56because it is their constitutional right to leave.
15:59So at the very least,
16:01we can check their itinerary.
16:05If this is not resolved
16:07in the continuation of the hearing tomorrow,
16:09they may be contempted.
16:11According to Chua,
16:12Vice President Sara Duterte is not invited.
16:15But she is welcome to attend if she wants to.
16:19Chua explained that the primary purpose of the hearing
16:23is to resolve the gaps in the law
16:25regarding confidential and intelligence funds.
16:28Why are the agencies
16:31that have nothing to do with the intelligence gathering
16:34given confidential funds?
16:38Another thing we see here
16:40is that the monitoring becomes lax.
16:45So it should be tightened.
16:47We are asking the Department of Justice
16:50to allow the camera.
16:52We are also trying to get the consent
16:54of Vice President Sara Duterte
16:56regarding this.
16:57In her response
16:59to the reopening of the session of the camera,
17:01House Speaker Martin Romualdez assured
17:04that they will not allow
17:06those who obstructed the hearing of the Quad Committee
17:09on drug issues, extrajudicial killings,
17:12smuggling, and illegal purchases
17:14of Chinese nationals
17:16from the country.
17:18We will not be silenced.
17:20We will not allow the time of darkness
17:22and evil to return.
17:25For GMA Integrated News,
17:27Tina Panganiban Perez,
17:29Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
17:32Because of the early voting,
17:34half of the voters
17:37in the U.S. presidential elections,
17:39and based on the surveys,
17:41the fight of U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris
17:44and former U.S. President Donald Trump
17:46is tied to the effect of their election in the Philippines
17:49in the election of Rafi Tima.
17:55The early voting in America is now formal.
17:57And tomorrow, the voting will start
17:59in the polling centers.
18:00There are more than 161 million voters in America
18:04and almost half of them
18:05voted through early voting.
18:07Currently, the Democratic nominee
18:09of Vice President Kamala Harris is in Michigan
18:11while the former President Donald Trump
18:13of the Republican Party is in Pennsylvania.
18:16They are called swing states.
18:18Based on the surveys,
18:20there is no clear leader in these two candidates.
18:22So whoever wins in these swing states
18:24could be the next president of America.
18:27That's going to be really where the decision will be made,
18:30so to speak,
18:31because it connects to all the other states
18:34that will bring the electoral votes
18:37closer to 270.
18:39The 270 that Ambassador Mualdez is talking about
18:42is the number of electoral votes
18:44that will be needed to win as president of America.
18:47Unlike the Philippines,
18:48where the majority of the votes will be won,
18:51in America,
18:52who will be the first to reach 270 electoral votes
18:55will win.
18:56Under the electoral college system in America,
18:59each state has an equivalent number of electoral votes
19:02that reaches 538 in 50 US states.
19:05Although the Filipino-Americans are the third
19:08in the largest population of Asian-Americans,
19:10according to an analyst,
19:11the effect of the Filipinos in the elections in America is not that great.
19:15Their votes will really matter
19:17if they are in the so-called swing states
19:20like Nevada, North Carolina,
19:23Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
19:26And whoever wins in these two candidates,
19:29it's possible that there won't be a big change in the policy of America in the Philippines.
19:33There might be a change in terms of the form
19:35but not necessarily in terms of the substance.
19:37Because there is still an element of bipartisanship
19:40regarding their priority when it comes to the Indo-Pacific region,
19:44of course, their competition with China,
19:47and the importance of their alliances.
19:50But in a forum held by the Center
19:52for Strategic and International Studies earlier
19:54about America's leadership in the country,
19:56a forum was held
19:58that has an impact on the country's economy.
20:00Whoever wins, it's up to Trump.
20:02In terms of promoting alliances
20:05and making sure the Philippines are part of
20:07the Indo-Pacific economic framework
20:10and more investment,
20:11I think Harris is better.
20:13But in terms of building a bilateral relationship,
20:16one based on personalities,
20:18one on one,
20:19I think that you would have
20:21some opportunities there with Trump.
20:24For GMA Integrated News,
20:26Raffy Timan, for Tutok, 24 hours.
20:33Let's take a quick look at what's updated
20:35on Sherby's Happenings.
20:41Ultimate fangirling mode
20:43is activated on Barbie Fortezza.
20:45She's a time-out on being an Adelina
20:48to enjoy the dream come true
20:50of being able to attend Ery's tour and meet Taylor Swift.
20:53In the IG post,
20:54we can see Barbie's excitement
20:56as she sings along to Tay-Tay's hits.
21:03It's another bop by the superstars themselves, Seventeen,
21:06because their title track,
21:08Love, Money, Fame, was already released.
21:10But this time, it's a remix.
21:12This January,
21:13the group will return to the Philippines
21:15for their Seventeen Right Here World Tour.
21:20Looking good and handsome,
21:22NCT's Jaehyun
21:23after sharing his newest buzzcut look.
21:27It seems not so sweet
21:28for the fans
21:29because of his military enlistment
21:31that's set today.
21:34A man who's been a suspect
21:36for more than two decades
21:38has been sentenced to death
21:40for drunkenness in 2001.
21:42It's Beya Pinluck.
21:48The 51-year-old tricycle driver
21:50who was arrested by the police
21:52was stopped in the middle of the road
21:55by a 51-year-old tricycle driver
21:57who was arrested
21:58on the basis of an arrest warrant
22:00in Barangay NBBS, Kaunlaran, in Navotas.
22:03The man has been a suspect
22:05for more than two decades
22:07according to the police
22:08after he was drunk
22:10and killed by a man
22:11who was fighting in a bar in 2001.
22:14The accused's three children
22:15were also suspects.
22:17The victim we're talking about
22:20is the man who was drunk
22:24and killed by a man
22:26who was fighting in a bar.
22:28There was an occasion
22:29where he was stabbed several times
22:34until he was killed.
22:36They were also in jail
22:37when they saw his body
22:39which was also a witness to his death.
22:41He was first arrested by the police
22:43last October.
22:45Maybe these people were already full
22:47with what the victim was doing.
22:52That's why it was already time
22:54for them to arrive
22:55and kill the victim.
22:57Aside from them,
22:58one of the four accused
22:59was already dead
23:00while the other one
23:01was still being stabbed.
23:03According to the accused
23:04who was arrested,
23:05he had nothing to do with it.
23:07I really don't know why.
23:10I don't know what happened.
23:11Let's find out
23:12so we can find out the truth.
23:14The murder case
23:15facing the accused
23:16is non-bailable.
23:18For GMA Integrated News,
23:20I'm Bea Pinlock
23:21for 24 Hours.
23:24Kobe Paras has admitted
23:26that he's officially dating
23:28Kylie Nelkantra.
23:30Kylie's ex, Mavi Legaspi,
23:31is also happy and moving forward
23:33with a comeback project.
23:36Here's Nelson Canlas' story.
23:41Five months after the first time
23:43netizens noticed
23:44the change of sweet comments online,
23:48holding hands,
23:50and joining the GMA Gala this year,
23:54basketball player Kobe Paras
23:57admitted the real score
23:59of Sparkle star Kylie Nelkantra.
24:02In an interview with
24:03Cosmopolitan Philippines,
24:05Kobe was asked
24:06who his biggest crush is.
24:09His answer is Kylie Nelkantra
24:12because they're already
24:13on the dating stage.
24:16Um, Kylie Nelkantra
24:18because we are dating.
24:20When we interviewed Kylie
24:22last August,
24:23before her trip to New York
24:25with her family,
24:26friends, and Kobe,
24:28Ky has a different way
24:30of describing
24:31what Kobe has.
24:33It's a different feeling,
24:36so I don't know the exact words
24:39to describe it.
24:40It just comes out
24:41through actions.
24:43For Kylie's ex,
24:44Mavi Legaspi.
24:46The person's happy,
24:47I'm happy,
24:48let's end the year
24:49in a good note,
24:50peaceful.
24:52Mavi is moving forward
24:54because what happened
24:55has already happened,
24:57and it's better
24:58to leave it in the past.
25:01What's done is done,
25:02and everyone's happy.
25:03But is Kylie ready
25:04to meet her?
25:07I've always been civil.
25:08At the end of the day,
25:09we're all just, you know,
25:11looking for happiness
25:12in our lives.
25:14Oh yeah, yeah.
25:16Yeah, yeah,
25:17a couple of times.
25:18Nod, smile, yeah.
25:20It's been okay.
25:21That's enough.
25:22For now,
25:23he says he enjoys
25:24being single.
25:26I'm mingling in the gym,
25:27working out.
25:28All I can say is
25:29my heart's happy.
25:30That's it.
25:31He says he's ready
25:32to face the world
25:33in his new
25:34and improved version.
25:36In some IG snaps,
25:37Mavi showed off
25:39her new look
25:40that's fit and healthy.
25:42In time for his
25:4324th birthday in January,
25:45he's also preparing
25:46for a comeback project.
25:48I'm also actually
25:49very focused on
25:50diet,
25:51working out.
25:52You'll see
25:53in the very near future
25:55why I need to lose weight.
