NewsTranscript
00:00After refuting the issue of derma care, Rufa Miquinto, who has no knowledge of any illegal activity, was arrested.
00:21The actress refused all accusations regarding her refutation to the so-called skin care clinic and was also arrested as a victim.
00:29He believes that the truth will prevail.
00:32Miquinto will also help the authorities to face the issues in the legal forum.
00:38First, Miquinto's lawyer confirmed that he has a warrant for his client for 14 counts of violation of the Securities Regulations Code.
00:46The arraignment of the accusation against the actress and businessman Nery Naig, who also refuted the issue of derma care, was not concluded.
00:54According to the Pasay Regional Trial Court, they are still waiting for the prosecutor's comment on the motion to quash Naig for the case of syndicated estafa.
01:03Today, Naig was brought back to Pasay City Jail, which is confined to the hospital since Friday.
01:08The police are still looking for the so-called owner of derma care, Chanda Atienza.
01:14Tomorrow, we will have GMA Integrated News for his statement.
01:18The presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, or PAOC, is facing more problems.
01:24They are leaving POGO workers who will leave the country at the end of the year.
01:29According to PAOC Executive Director Gilbert Cruz, they are supporting 15 children who were arrested by their parents.
01:38Among them is a two-year-old girl who has a Vietnamese mother and Chinese father.
01:44PAOC is leading the DSWD to provide additional assistance to the children.
01:48Some of the PINAY members of GMA Integrated News have talked to their children who are POGO workers.
01:54They have talked to the government so that their children will not betray their parents.
01:59With the last day of the POGO operation in the country, the POGO workers can stay in the Philippines until the end of the year.
02:09I don't know what will happen to my child.
02:14I don't have a job.
02:16We really depend on him.
02:19I don't know what will happen to him when he comes to China.
02:24If he has a child, they can consider letting our husbands go.
02:31This is not an ordinary problem.
02:34We didn't expect this to happen.
02:36We just know that we will be arrested by POGO workers.
02:40That's why there are left-behind problems.
02:44In the situation in some parts of Lemery, Batangas, we are joined by the Department of Social Welfare and Development Spokesperson,
02:51Assistant Secretary Irene Dumlao.
02:54Good morning, Irene Dumlao.
02:56Good morning, Egan.
02:57Good morning to everyone who is watching your program.
03:01Until now, our residents of Barangay Nonong Castro are still having a hard time because of the magnitude of the typhoon, Christine.
03:08Based on the video you showed, relief goods are not the only thing that is needed there.
03:15Yes, Egan.
03:17Actually, the report that we have in Lemery, Batangas,
03:23we were able to bring more than 7.1 million worth of humanitarian assistance to that place.
03:30Family food packs, family kits, hygiene kits, kitchen kits, modular tents, and sleeping kits.
03:37But this time, because we learned about the situation here in Purug 7 in Nonong Castro,
03:44what we will do, Egan, is to go to our Regional Directorate in Calabarzon
03:49and assess our social workers on what assistance they need
03:53so that we can increase the resources of the local government unit
03:57so that we can help our countrymen to rebuild their homes, rebuild their lives,
04:01and we can contribute in the restoration of their psychosocial functioning, Egan.
04:08Even if there's no typhoon, you will continue to share your assistance to the DSWD, right?
04:13That's right, Egan.
04:14Because we are assessing the situation with the local government unit,
04:18because when they are in the stage of early recovery,
04:21that's when other interventions like financial assistance,
04:26or cash for work, or other assistance that we may provide
04:31is based on the assessment done by the local government unit.
04:35But the local government unit should have a big role here because the DSWD only supports the LGUs.
04:44That's correct, Egan.
04:46Of course, social welfare is the whole function to the local government units
04:50as provided in the local government code.
04:52And based on our role as a response pillar of NDRMC,
04:58we are increasing the resources of the local government units
05:01and providing technical assistance to them, which is what we are currently doing, Egan.
05:06But you know, because we also recognize that some local government units
05:11are lacking in terms of resources, of manpower,
05:16that's why the DSWD is helping our partners on the ground.
05:22In the assessment of the DSWD,
05:24how long will it take for our countrymen to return to normal life?
05:29Well of course, that depends on the assessment that we are doing.
05:34It also depends on the needs of our countrymen and how we are affected.
05:39The area is, you will see there, not only infrastructures, but also their livelihoods.
05:45That's why the government agencies are helping with some specific mandates
05:50so we can support the recovery, the full recovery of our countrymen who are affected by the typhoons.
05:58Thank you very much DSWD spokesperson Asek Irene Dublao. Be careful.
06:02Thank you very much, Egan.
06:05A new impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte has been filed in the House of Representatives.
06:11According to the investigation of the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability,
06:15they will recommend filing a criminal complaint
06:19regarding the wrong spending of the confidential funds
06:23of the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education.
06:27First news, Joseph Morong.
06:31Who is Mary Grace Piatos?
06:34Do you think she's a real person?
06:36There's no birth, marriage and death certificate with that name in the record of the Philippine Statistics Authority.
06:42But a Mary Grace Piatos acknowledgment receipt was signed,
06:46which was sent to the office of the Vice President
06:49to explain how they spent the confidential fund of 2022.
06:53That's why the House Committee is looking for good government and public accountability.
06:58It's possible that the PSM will expand their search
07:01if they can provide additional information to the committee,
07:04like the name, place and date related to the parents of Mary Grace Piatos.
07:08The acknowledgment receipt is like a bogus.
07:11Maybe our next step is to check other names.
07:18What does this show?
07:20That the officials of the Office of the Vice President,
07:23led by no other than Sara Duterte,
07:25invented receipts to defend the wrong use of confidential funds.
07:36Now, there's a concrete proof that the country's money was not used properly.
07:45The committee is also investigating in the NBI
07:48the signatures of other suspicious acknowledgment receipts.
07:51But what if the names used in the liquidation of CONFIFUNDS are not real?
07:56We asked COA, but the congressmen admitted that this is not clear.
08:01According to the committee that is investigating the confidential funds
08:04of the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education,
08:07they have enough information not only to restrict the use of confidential funds in a new law,
08:13but also to investigate criminal cases.
08:17This is for the complaint of bribery and graft and corruption.
08:20We are recommending the filing of charges against the staff of BP.
08:26The staff of the Vice President and the DepEd, and even the Vice President,
08:33are not immune to corruption.
08:35The backstab at her office, right?
08:38She's responsible for all of that.
08:41The committee did not account for the use of CONFIFUNDS
08:44in one of the mentioned articles of impeachment
08:46filed against Vice President Duterte.
08:49We need to prioritize the life of President Bongbong Marcos,
08:52the First Lady, and the House Speaker.
08:54Even so, the Palacion was agitated by the position of the President
08:58regarding the impeachment against Vice President Duterte
09:01even before the complaint was filed.
09:03The President already made a clear and unambiguous statement
09:07that he would not support an effort to impeach because it's distracting.
09:14We still have a lot to do.
09:17It's important for the country.
09:20That's how it should be.
09:22Any suggestion that it's political or instigated by our side,
09:30no, that is never true.
09:35Another impeachment complaint will be endorsed by the Black community.
09:39It will be endorsed by 50 bodies from various organizations.
09:43We are still waiting for the official statement of Vice President Sara Duterte.
09:47This is the first news, Joseph Morong for GMA Integrated News.
09:52To talk about the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte,
09:56we will interview Professor Dante Gatmaitan,
09:59professor of UP College of Law.
10:01Good morning professor.
10:03Good morning Igan. Good morning to all of us.
10:06Is it an impeachable offense for Vice President Sara Duterte to insult or threaten?
10:13The insult itself is not an offense.
10:15Okay.
10:16It's an insult. That's another story.
10:19In the first impeachment complaint filed in the House of Representatives,
10:22it has something to do with culpable violation of the Constitution,
10:26graft and corruption, bribery, betrayal of public trust,
10:29and other high crimes committed by Vice President Sara Duterte.
10:34Is there a high chance that the complaint will be dismissed because of the grounds mentioned?
10:39I think there's a high chance that the complaint will not be filed in the House if the vote is not secured.
10:45Also, the grounds you mentioned, there are many words used.
10:51Yes.
10:52What does culpable violation mean? What does betrayal of public trust mean?
10:56Yes.
10:57High crimes.
10:58There are many words used in the impeachment complaint.
11:02You can include them in those categories, in those offenses.
11:07Yes. You need to know the substance, professor.
11:12Yes. Based on our experience, they need to prove only one thing.
11:18They put many grounds.
11:21Yes.
11:22Is the time of the camera enough to process and investigate this impeachment complaint?
11:26Especially, there's another one that will be filed today and the election will be near.
11:33That's what people are wondering how this will be done.
11:39In the House, I think if it's a one-third vote, it will go straight to the Senate for a trial.
11:44To the Senate?
11:45Yes. It will be a trial.
11:47Because impeachment is different. It will be impeached and it will be a trial in the Senate.
11:51Yes. As a court.
11:52That will take a long time. We have seen that with Estrada and with Chief Justice Corona.
11:57If they can finish one ground, they can speed it up.
12:05But of course, it's a court case. The respondent needs to have a due process.
12:10You can't rush it. You can't rush it.
12:14Yes.
12:15What's the problem here? The confidential funds of the OVP and the DepEd are also being investigated.
12:22Professor, the plunder case while he's in office, does he have immunity from suit?
12:28The Vice President has no immunity. Only the President has immunity. So that can be done.
12:33So what's more serious, impeachment or the plunder case?
12:38The impeachment, if he's impeached and found guilty by the Senate, he can't run for any public office.
12:46Yes.
12:47But for criminals, there will be controversies if the court needs to include the penalty of perpetual disqualification for public office.
12:58Yes.
12:59So as long as it's included, depending on the case that he found guilty, he can be prohibited from running for public office.
13:10In the part of the Vice President, it's true that he planned for the impeachment and all of this is political.
13:18You can say that because all impeachments have politics.
13:23You can also say that the way he conducted himself, it's like he opened himself up for impeachment.
13:30Yes.
13:31The one who doesn't want to participate, the one who doesn't want to answer.
13:34You can say that it's a violation of the Constitution, betrayal of public trust because as Vice President, you need to go through the process.
13:43Yes.
13:44There are such arguments.
13:46You need to be accountable to everyone.
13:48Yes.
13:49Thank you very much Professor Dante Gatmaitan from UP College of Law. Take care.
13:54Thank you. Good morning.
13:57The South Korean military retreated after their President withdrew the declaration of emergency martial law.
14:02The value of the won against the dollar fell due to the chaos caused by the U.V. Express overseas.
14:15South Koreans were shocked when President Yun Suk-yol declared a military law last night.
14:22Through this emergency martial law, I will re-establish and protect the Republic of Korea, which is falling into the abyss of chaos.
14:32The emergency martial law is to protect their country against the Communist forces of North Korea and anti-state forces that are pro-North Korean.
14:43Following the declaration, the military of South Korea immediately acted.
14:51Tanks and helicopters rushed in while the soldiers were deployed in the parliament building in Seoul.
14:59The opposition leader, Lee Jae-myung, immediately opposed the martial law.
15:03President Yun Suk-yol's illegal, dangerous, and anti-national declaration of martial law.
15:11It was difficult for Lee to enter the parliament building.
15:17Outside the compound, tensions escalated between the police and thousands of protesters.
15:22In the midst of the chaos, hundreds and thousands of people voted to declare the military law invalid.
15:29According to the Constitution of the Republic of Korea, the president must immediately cancel the emergency martial law.
15:34According to the law and the majority vote, President Yun made a mistake and left the martial law.
15:41Although the military law is easy, it has a severe impact on the economy of South Korea.
15:46Before it can be recovered, the value of the won against the dollar, which is the lowest in the past two years, has fallen.
15:53This is the first news.
15:55EJ Gomez for GMA Integrated News.
16:00It has been a few hours since the martial law in South Korea and the situation in the Philippines.
16:06We will be joined by the Philippine Ambassador to the Republic of Korea, Maria Teresa Dizon de Vega.
16:12Ambassador, good morning.
16:15Good morning to you sir EJ and to all the listeners of your program.
16:20How is the situation in South Korea?
16:25As of now, since earlier at 4.30 a.m., it was announced that the martial law has been lifted.
16:34As of now, it is normal for people to go to the streets.
16:42Schools are allowed to enter.
16:45We are also in the embassy. We have regular operations.
16:48Other embassies are also here.
16:52So the chaos that we saw in the beginning, it's gone now Ambassador?
16:57It's gone. What happened in their national assembly last night and early in the morning,
17:03the soldiers were withdrawn, the members of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Korea.
17:11Were you surprised by this development in the embassy?
17:16Did you follow President Jun to declare an emergency martial law?
17:24This happened last night.
17:28The public and other residents of South Korea were surprised.
17:35Although in the past few weeks,
17:39in any country, there are inaction from the government and politicians.
17:48How are our countrymen here in the emergency martial law? What is their reaction?
17:56Last night, we issued a notice that all Filipinos should remain calm here,
18:03including tourists who are visiting.
18:06They should follow the advisories issued by the government of South Korea and follow this.
18:13We also have an advisory to continue our service.
18:19As of now, we have not received any queries that are critical.
18:28The only question is, can I travel? Can my friends and family visit?
18:39Those are the questions we have received from our countrymen since last night.
18:46Now, the government of South Korea is in charge of the embassy. What will happen next?
18:52We are in touch with the so-called directorate in charge in the Philippines, in the countries of ASEAN.
19:00We are on standby if there will be any government abuse.
19:07But as of now, the latest development is that the martial law has been lifted.
19:12Thank you very much Philippine Ambassador to the Republic of Korea, Maria Teresa Di Zondevega.
19:17Be careful Ambassador.
19:18Thank you very much also Sir Egan. Good day to all of you.
