00:00The two new laws that define the territory of the Philippines in accordance with the Arbitral Ruling have already been signed by President Bambang Marcos.
00:18As well as the three new sea lanes where all ships and airplanes of other countries can pass through.
00:24But China has already signed the two new laws and called the ambassador of the Philippines.
00:30Witness, Darlene Cai.
00:36Whenever there is a talk about the establishment of a shore or the establishment of an island, the West Philippine Sea or WPS will be involved.
00:43This is the part of the South China Sea that is within the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
00:48Under President Bambang Marcos' Maritime Zones Law, the use of the term West Philippine Sea is a formal law.
00:55The new law defines the territory of the Philippines in accordance with the 2016 Arbitral Award,
01:00including the part of the sea where the country is located and which is our EEZ.
01:04With these pieces of legislation, we align our domestic laws with international law.
01:10Specifically, the UN Convention on the Law of the Seas or UNCLOS.
01:14To improve our capacity for governance and reinforce our maritime policies for economic development and for national security.
01:22We are staunchly committed to nurturing, cultivating, and protecting our maritime domain.
01:29President Bambang Marcos also signed the Archipelagic Sea Lanes Law that covers the three sea lanes of the Philippines.
01:35There are two routes, one to the east and one to the west.
01:39With these routes, all ships and airplanes of other countries can pass.
01:44Once the three sea lanes of the International Maritime Organization are approved,
01:48it can be implemented by our government.
01:50Because of the new law, it is expected that in the coming days, the new look of the map of the Philippines will be released.
01:56Aside from the use of the term West Philippine Sea,
01:59the country will formally change to Benhav Rise and will become Philippine Rise or Talampas ng Pilipinas.
02:05We already have the maps prepared.
02:08We are just waiting for the implementing rules and regulations
02:12in order for us to modify or revise the maps that we have prepared accordingly until its final publication.
02:19The new law will be subject to a pardon.
02:23But it is also expected that it will not be recognized by China.
02:27According to the Foreign Ministry of China,
02:29China called the ambassador of the Philippines to announce their agreement on the two new laws.
02:34The National Maritime Council admitted that additional funds are needed
02:38for the Philippines to be human and useful enough to implement these two laws.
02:43We need more assets, we need more bottoms, we need more technical capabilities to fully monitor, detect,
02:52and I don't want to say neutralize, but rather address any violations of our laws.
03:01For GMA Integrated News, I am Darlene Cai, your Saksi.
03:10Before Saksi, more than 2 million pesos worth of illegal party drugs were found in Paranaque,
03:16including cocaine, ketamine, marijuana, and ecstasy.
03:21The smugglers will be brought to the PNP Southern Police District Forensic Unit for investigation.
03:27In addition to the drug smugglers, the 26-year-old suspect was also arrested in the Bybusk operation.
03:33Money, boodle money, and weighing scales were also obtained in the Bybusk operation.
03:39The Marseille typhoon is now out of the Philippine Area of Responsibility,
03:42and all wind signals have also been lifted.
03:45The typhoon is moving west-southwest, and Vietnam may be the next target.
03:50It may be the next target, especially in the low-perish area,
03:53the group of clouds that were seen yesterday in Pag-asa.
03:57It is expected to enter the PAR tonight or tomorrow morning.
04:01According to Pag-asa, the chances of this being a typhoon are high, and it will be called the Nika Typhoon.

06:15Because of the strong winds, it was washed out.
06:20Kisame was also not saved by the newly built house of MDRRMO and the lobby of the municipality of Bayanang, Santa Ana.
06:27This building is still new.
06:29We didn't expect the typhoon to be so strong.
06:32If it was different structures, there would be more houses, especially the houses of the residents.
06:40Kisame fell while the walls of the stalls in a commercial center were destroyed.
06:45They also brought their school supplies to the area.
06:47There are boats and boats.

08:12For GMA Internet and News, I am Jasmine Gabriel-Golbang of GMA Regional TV.
08:18Your Saksi.
08:21Before Saksi, a man was arrested in San Juan, Ilocos Sur
08:24because of the illegal sale of dog meat.
08:28He was arrested in a by-bus operation carried out by the CIDG and the Animal Kingdom Foundation.
08:33Attention to the audience.
08:35The suspect was recovered by a dog with a smoke alarm.
08:39Some parts of the dog were cut off and some were made of plastic.
08:45As of now, the CIDG is investigating the suspect
08:48who is facing a violation of the Animal Welfare Act and Anti-Rabies Act.
08:54More than 100 families were affected by the fire in a separate area in Manila
08:59within 24 hours.
09:01Saksi, this is Katrina Son.
09:07These families are struggling in Barangay 659 Arroceros in Manila.
09:12The fire broke out in a house three days ago.
09:17According to the firefighters, they were surprised by the smoke in the rooms.
09:22They saw that one of the rooms next to them was on fire.
09:27When I woke up, the fire was very strong.
09:32All of my colleagues took out their equipment.
09:36When I went upstairs, the fire was still burning.
09:40When I came back, it was gone.
09:43It's a good thing that all of our equipment was not burned.
09:47According to the BFP Manila, about 20 families were burned.
09:52The fire is still being investigated.
09:58Almost 150 families lost their homes in the fire in Barangay 128, Tondo, Manila last night.
10:05We had a hard time.
10:07As you can see, it's narrow.
10:09Only small trucks can pass through here.
10:11Almost no one was saved.
10:14The fire was very strong.
10:17Our house was on fire.
10:19Our children's school supplies, books, and uniforms were all burned.
10:23None of our belongings were left.
10:25The couple who fought started the fire.
10:29It's a good thing that the man refused to help.
10:32According to our residents who live in Class 4,
10:37the couple started the fire because the couple was fighting.
10:42The couple lives in the back of the house.
10:44Now, the man is in Barangay 128.
10:47I think that's how many people are there.
10:49The couple was fighting, but I didn't do anything.
