00:00It's not stones or concrete for construction, but concrete addicts are the ones who are selling it in Laguna.
00:07The drug that was approved is estimated to be worth 10 million pesos.
00:11John Consulta, exclusive.
00:17You would think that concrete and stones are what these people are using,
00:22but it's just a front for their real income.
00:25You are taking care of this drug.
00:30We are the ones who authorized you to sell it.
00:37A 60-year-old suspect has been arrested for drugging.
00:40According to the authorities, he is the leader of a drug group.
00:44This concrete is their cover for the drug addicts.
00:48Once there is a transaction through a messaging app like Messenger or even Text Message,
00:53they will receive a transaction and will be sent to their compound where they will receive their items.
01:02During the raid, the people of PNP Drug Enforcement Group, or PIDEG,
01:06were attacked by Sangkaterbang Shabu and Marijuana worth more than 10 million pesos.
01:11The group's leader noticed that they were selling sand and stones in Lumban, Laguna.
01:16But what was hidden was stone or drugs.
01:20The arrested suspect is the one who supplies drugs in Lumban and nearby towns using messaging apps.
01:26The suspect who is now in jail for PIDEG has not yet been released.
01:30For GMA Integrated News, John Consulta, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
01:36Seven policemen were injured after being raped by several protesters during the protest in Pagunita on Bonifacio Day.
01:43Bernadette Reyes was arrested.
01:51Police! Police!
01:56The police called on the rallyists who were blocking Recto Avenue in Manila.
02:01Their protest was in the middle of the protest that was held today on the 161st day of Gat Andres Bonifacio.
02:13The rallyists marched to Mendiola.
02:16But before they could arrive, they were blocked by the police.
02:19According to the Manila Police District, seven policemen were injured in the incident that is now being treated.
02:26We were blocked by the police.
02:28One of our colleagues was arrested.
02:32So he is not guilty.
02:34If someone was injured by them, someone was also injured by us.
02:38But the point is, why are they blocking us?
02:40We are still verifying if we were arrested.
02:43We need to follow the rule of law.
02:45We respect their rights.
02:47We are asking that this place is not included in Freedom Park.
02:52The rallyists did not fight and continued their program there after the police allowed it.
02:58Militant groups called to lower the price of electricity and gasoline,
03:03to release political prisoners,
03:05and others who were detained by the current administration.
03:09President Bongbong Marcos said that he is concerned about the sacrifice shown by Bonifacio and our leaders.
03:16We owe them the recognition of our citizenship, our identity, and our independence.
03:23As someone who knows Bonifacio, we should know the deeper meaning of his sacrifice
03:29and do our part in fighting hunger, corruption, criminality, and other social problems.
03:37Vice President Sara Duterte said that it is important to show that we are free in our country's situation,
03:46such as poverty, hunger, lack of jobs, and lack of primary services for Filipinos.
03:55For GMA Integrated News, Bernadette Reyes, Nakatuto, 24 Hours.
04:01Three Chinese ships were monitored by the Philippine Coast Guard
04:05who illegally entered the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines last week.
04:10Nakatuto, Cebuan Aquino.
04:15The Philippine Coast Guard showed this map when they monitored three research vessels of China in the Philippines
04:22within more than two weeks.
04:24We were able to monitor this morning around 7.40 in the morning.
04:30With a distance of 210 nautical miles east of Siargao Island, Surigao del Norte.
04:38Their names are Xiangyang Hong 3.
04:43The second one is Jiageng.
04:46And then the third one is Xiangyang Hong 10.
04:51They are outside the 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
04:56But according to the PCG, it entered our EEZ several times.
05:00Like the Jiageng ship on November 14, it was at 200 nautical miles east of Davao Oriental.
05:07While the vessel of Xiangyang Hong 10 was also at 200 nautical miles east of Siargao Island on November 20.
05:14Another ship, Xiangyang Hong 3, was spotted at a distance of 257 nautical miles northeast of Santa Ana, Cagayan on November 17.
05:23It is not known when it was spotted in the northern Luzon.
05:27According to the PCG, the ships were moving together.
05:31It just passed by.
05:33It never loitered.
05:35So it entered and left again.
05:37According to the Philippine Coast Guard, because only the Philippines has sovereign rights in this exclusive economic zone,
05:43foreign flag marine scientific research like this should ask for clearance in the Philippines.
05:48Since there is none, this can be...
05:51Again, for the Coast Guard, we're going to communicate this to the National Task Force, West Philippine Sea,
05:57and it's up to the Department of Foreign Affairs to take action regarding their presence.
06:03Chinese militia vessels near Pagasa Island in the West Philippine Sea were reduced.
06:08From more than 70, only more than 30 were there.
06:12According to the PCG, these haven't left yet, but it's outside the territorial sea of Pagasa.
06:18Because of the bad weather, the militia vessels gathered and anchored near Pagasa.
06:24It's not a cause for concern.
06:26Yes.
06:27The AFP first said that it's not a cause of concern even though they consider it an illegal presence.
06:33We are still trying to get permission from the Chinese Embassy to bring Chinese research vessels near Siargao.
06:40And the number of militia vessels near Pagasa Island.
06:43For GMA Integrated News, Von Aquino reporting for 24 Hours.
06:48Instead of increasing, it seems that the number of consolidators under the PUV modernization has decreased
06:54at the end of this deadline.
06:56Reporting for you, Bernadette Reyes.
07:02Yesterday, the 45-day extension given by the LTFRB
07:07for the transport group that wants to be consolidated under the PUV modernization program.
07:13This was the goal of the LTFRB at the request of the Senate to postpone the deadline.
07:18But instead of increasing, the number of consolidators has decreased based on the data of the transport groups.
07:25In Tayanang Manibela, their member withdrew up to 6,000 from the start of the program.
07:312,000 in the number of pistols.
07:34They used to travel five to six times a week.
07:39Now, it's only twice because they are being held back
07:43because the cooperative wants to run only the modernization.
07:48It should be shown that the LTFRB has not reached the government yet.
07:54That's what the LTFRB representative is saying.
07:58Since they joined the corporation,
08:00they have lost their daily income because of their boundary.
08:06That's why we, the operators, followed the program, but we lost our livelihood.
08:13The two groups will meet to discuss a plan to have a dialogue with the Department of Transportation
08:19to allow them to register and renew the franchise even though it has not been consolidated yet.
08:26Even though we are not consolidated, even though we are not a part of the transport cooperatives,
08:33I hope we can still register our motor vehicles, our jeepneys, so we can still travel,
08:40especially now that it's Christmas and the new year, it's hard to travel.
08:45GMA Integrated News is still working hard to get the LTFRB and DOTR agreement on this,
08:51but they still have no answer.
08:53For GMA Integrated News, Bernadette Reyes, Nakatuto, 24 Hours.
