00:00Live from the GMA Network Center,
00:0420 years have passed since the eruption of the volcano.
00:11Good evening, Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
00:15The activity of the Canlaon Volcano is closely monitored by the FIVOX.
00:21Especially, there are signals that this is a possible magmatic or major eruption
00:27in the coming weeks.
00:29The target is to carry out a force evacuation
00:31to the more than 50,000 residents living in the 6-kilometer danger zone.
00:37There are still residents who do not want to evacuate
00:40even though the volcano is already at alert level 3.
00:42The government is preparing to raise the alert level 4
00:48for the eruption of the June veneration.
00:53Compared to the strong eruption yesterday,
00:56it seems that the Canlaon Volcano is quieter now.
01:01FIVOX said that only 20 volcanic quakes were recorded in the past 24 hours.
01:07But that does not mean that the problem is over
01:10because there are signals of a possible magmatic or major eruption in the coming weeks.
01:16In our analysis, the Canlaon Volcano is really preparing for a magmatic eruption.
01:22The only question is when, how, and how strong the eruption will be.
01:31The magmatic eruption yesterday reached a height of 4 kilometers
01:36that was brought by the wind to the northern part of the volcano.
01:39The ashfall hit the towns of Negros Occidental
01:42such as La Carlota City, Bago City, La Castellana, and Murcia.
01:47The magmatic eruption on the ground, according to FIVOX,
01:50was brought by the wind and the sea
01:52in Guimaras, Iloilo, and Antique.
01:55The other ash that can be experienced from far away,
01:59such as here in Antique,
02:01are already remobilized.
02:05It means that because of the strong wind,
02:07even the ashfall that has already fallen
02:10can be seen from far away.
02:13The alert level 3 is still high.
02:16It means that those who live inside the 6-kilometer danger zone must evacuate.
02:21According to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council,
02:2554,000 residents inside the 6-kilometer danger zone
02:30are the target of forced evacuation.
02:32From the two critical areas, those who need to be evacuated are
02:36La Castellana in Negros Occidental
02:38and Canlaon City in Negros Oriental.
02:41The issues that we are facing right now
02:44is that people are hesitating to evacuate
02:48because they are not used to these kinds of events.
02:56This is a forced evacuation.
02:57But of course, we are talking to the people.
03:00When the alert level 4 is raised,
03:02the danger zone will be 10 kilometers.
03:04That's an additional 10,000 residents that need to be evacuated.
03:08We will send 1,000 tents and water
03:14plus other facilities like portalettes, etc.
03:20so that we can manage temporary evacuation sites.
03:24According to FIVOX,
03:27to raise the alert level 4,
03:29the magma should slowly rise,
03:31the volcano should erupt and erupt.
03:34If that happens,
03:35the major eruption is possible.
03:37It can reach up to 10 kilometers high.
03:41The dangerous pyroclastic density current
03:45can reach up to 6 kilometers.
03:49In alert level 4,
03:50all the worst-case scenario eruptions
03:56should be evacuated.
03:58Because alert level 5 is merely a statement
04:02of ongoing worst-case scenario eruptions.
04:07President Bongbong Marcos is sure
04:09that the government is ready
04:11to make a wide-ranging evacuation of the residents.
04:15We're ready.
04:16We know what to do.
04:18We have already started to send food packs
04:22and we have already started to send
04:24all of the things that we bring
04:27to those who are in evacuation centers.
04:32For GMA Integrated News,
04:34June Veneration, 24 hours.
04:37Your GMA Kapuso Foundation is now preparing
04:41for Operation Bayanihan
04:43for those affected by the eruption of Volcano Canlaon.
04:47At the moment,
04:48GMA Kapuso Foundation is doing repacking
04:52with 303rd Infantry Brigade,
04:5562nd Infantry Battalion, Philippine Army
04:58and other volunteers
05:00at Bago City Elementary School.
05:02Relief goods and KN95 masks
05:05will be distributed tomorrow
05:07for the 2,000 evacuees
05:09in La Castellana, La Carlota
05:13and Bago City, Negros Occidental.
05:16For those who want to donate,
05:17you can deposit it in our bank accounts
05:20or send it to Cebuana Lawalier.
05:22You can also do it online via Gcash,
05:25Shopee, Lazada, Globe Rewards
05:27and Metro Bank Credit Card.
05:29President Bongbong Marcos is adamant
05:32that the Philippines will not send
05:34a Navy warship
05:36despite China's new harassments.
05:39He said that on the anniversary
05:41of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
05:44which is one of the foundations
05:46of the Philippines on the unification
05:48of territory and sovereignty
05:50in the West Philippine Sea.
05:52Ivan Mayrena reports.
05:54Last Sunday,
05:56new incidents of aggressive action
05:58were carried out by China
06:00inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
06:02From the approach of China's helicopter
06:04to the Philippine fishermen
06:06in Rosul Reef or Iroquois.
06:08Dangerous fishing,
06:10fishing and water cannon pass
06:12to the ships of the Bureau of Fisheries
06:14and Aquatic Resources or BFAR.
06:16And last,
06:18the new incident of laser
06:20in the BFAR ship.
06:22What's more,
06:24according to the Philippine Coast Guard,
06:26in the past,
06:28the coast guard or militia vessels
06:30were used by China to harass.
06:32Now, it's the Chinese Navy warships
06:34and it's up to the President
06:36if he will face the Philippine Navy ships.
06:42The President's answer,
06:44despite the harassment,
06:46the Philippines will not send
06:48a Navy warship to the West Philippine Sea.
06:50We don't need Navy warships.
06:52All we are doing is resupplying
06:54our fishermen,
06:56protecting our territorial rights.
06:58Again,
07:00it will be provocative
07:02and will be seen as an escalation.
07:04We don't do that. The Philippines
07:06does not escalate tensions.
07:08Quite the opposite. The Philippines
07:10always tries to bring down
07:12the level of tension.
07:14Just last week,
07:16the National Task Force on the West Philippine Sea
07:18said that the Philippine Navy
07:20may deploy the Philippine warships
07:22to accompany the BFAR and PCG resupply missions
07:24to the Philippine fishermen.
07:26But the President said,
07:28there will be no change
07:30in the country's discard in the West Philippine Sea
07:32and the country will never be a part
07:34in bringing down the tension in the region.
07:36The President's statement
07:38coincides with the 42nd anniversary
07:40of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
07:42which is considered in the League of Laws
07:44of the Seas,
07:46as it upholds its lawful claim
07:48to its maritime entitlements,
07:50the Philippines has continued
07:52to engage coastal neighbors
07:54to discussions on the delimitation
07:56of the Exclusive Economic Zone,
07:58the Continental Shelf,
08:00and the Extended Continental Shelf
08:02measured from lawfully drawn baselines
08:04where these maritime zones
08:06may overlap.
08:08The Philippine Navy
08:10will continue
08:12to engage coastal neighbors
08:14to discussions on the delimitation
08:16of the Exclusive Economic Zone,
08:18the Continental Shelf,
08:20and the Extended Continental Shelf.
08:22The Philippine Navy
08:24will continue
08:26to engage coastal neighbors
08:28to discussions on the delimitation
08:30of the Exclusive Economic Zone,
08:32the Continental Shelf,
08:34and the Extended Continental Shelf.
08:36The Philippine Navy
08:38will continue
08:40to engage coastal neighbors
08:43to discussions on the delimitation
08:45of the Exclusive Economic Zone,
08:47the Continental Shelf,
08:49and the Extended Continental Shelf.
09:12For example,
09:14my aunt also travels a lot
09:16during Christmas
09:18because she also buys things
09:20and there's also a store.
09:22It's hard to get in and out of the house.
09:24Sometimes it takes three hours
09:26because it's hard to drive.
09:28Adrian also waited
09:30for a few minutes
09:32when someone arrived.
09:34He chased him in the middle of the highway.
09:38There are waves
09:40of vehicles
09:42that can't wait.
09:48Some of them
09:50took a motorcycle taxi.
10:02We rode in a modern jeep
10:04to find out how long
10:06the trip will last.
10:10We're going to Calao
10:12to see how long
10:14the trip will last.
10:16Inside, the passengers
10:18sleep in their own beds.
10:20If you're lucky, you can sit
10:22on some of the streets
10:24where most people sleep.
10:26What time do you go home?
10:28Ten o'clock.
10:30At night?
10:32What time do you wake up?
10:34Seven.
10:36Do you sleep?
10:38No.
10:40Imagine,
10:42what time is it?
10:44We leave at seven.
10:46For those who ride a modern jeep,
10:48Christmas rush means
10:50they can't earn money.
10:52In December,
10:54there are three of us
10:56in the traffic.
10:58We're close to Calao.
11:02The trip will last an hour.
11:04When we got off in Manila,
11:06We rode in a TNVS.
11:08We got to Bukdakong
11:10at 10 in the morning.
11:12Have you traveled before?
11:14Yes.
11:16What time do you start?
11:18Morning.
11:20What time is it?
11:22Six o'clock.
11:24The TNVS driver
11:26felt the Christmas rush.
11:32After 30 minutes,
11:34we traveled from Manila to Quezon City.
11:36The fare is
11:38P400,000.
11:40In the monitoring of the MMDA,
11:42in December 2,
11:44there were more than 440,000 cars
11:46in EDSA.
11:48It's higher than the average of 417,000
11:50from January to November.
11:52The distance traveled in EDSA
11:54is one to one and a half hours.
11:56From Rojas to Monumento
11:58is northbound.
12:00Or Monumento to Rojas Boulevard
12:02is southbound.
12:04One thing that we have to consider
12:06is that our roads were never really built
12:08and prepared to handle this kind of volume.
12:10Make use of our public transportation.
12:12The shortest term
12:14that we do is to clear
12:16our living lanes, our major toro fairs,
12:18our alternate routes.
12:20Some solutions are also implemented by the MMDA
12:22like the late opening and closing
12:24of malls
12:26so that people cannot gather on the road.

20:33So as her counsel, I also have to protect her mental health.
20:36The counsel of Archie is amenable to that.
20:39When we asked Rita how she is doing with her lawyer.
20:42Actually, as of this date, even up to now, she's not okay.
20:46On December 17, Rita was able to submit her answer to Archie's counter-affidavit.
20:52For GMA Integrated News, Oscar Oida, Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
20:59The people of the MMDA are facing their own obstacles on the road today.
21:05One of them, a traffic enforcer was hit while trying to escape while pulling his vehicle.
21:13And from EDSA Pasay, live on Nakatutok, this is Dano Tumpungko.
21:17Dano.
21:22Oh Vicky, let's do a traffic update first.
21:24If you happen to be here at EDSA Pasay Northbound,
21:28aside from groceries and gifts, I hope you were able to buy a lot of patience
21:33because this is already an ongoing issue until it passed North EDSA.
21:37And here it is, the MMDA's obstacle that can be avoided by this kind of bad traffic
21:44is the clearing operations.
21:46Especially on the benches where the parked vehicles are blocked and barred.
21:52Sir, I have an issue with you, sir.
21:57The MMDA was supposed to clear this vehicle all of a sudden.
22:03Are you sure?
22:04Yes.
22:05The driver of the vehicle tried to escape.
22:09Did you see it or not?
22:11I didn't see him.
22:13You didn't see him?
22:15He's up there, sir.
22:17There's an enforcer up there, you should ask him.
22:20You shouldn't have stopped him, you shouldn't have run after him.
22:23How many people did we run after?
22:25I saw them running after him.
22:27No, sir.
22:28No, sir.
22:29I just saw them running after him.
22:31Yes, because he tried to escape.
22:33If this is a traffic violation, will you do that to the enforcers?
22:39I just did that because I was afraid of the rakers.
22:42You were afraid?
22:44Weren't you afraid of the enforcers?
22:47Were you more afraid of the rakers?
22:50Can you stop there?
22:52I know it's not allowed.
22:53If you know it's not allowed, why did you stop there?
22:55We are already towing the car.
22:57The driver got in and the vehicle was immediately stopped.
23:01He was hit by a car.
23:03His violation should be unattended.
23:06Now, because he tried to escape and almost hit the enforcer twice,
23:12this is definitely reckless driving.
23:15He will receive a penalty because of the reckless manner of what he did.
23:20This is the only driver who was seen in the sidewalk clearing operations
23:24on the day of the MMDA in Parañaque.
23:27But each and every one of them was seen.
23:30In the length of Doña Soledad, for example,
23:32the MMDA found all the vehicles parked in this parking space
23:36that were already eaten by the rakers.
23:38I was just there.
23:39Yes, but we were in front of the rakers.
23:42If there's no driver, he will be towed.
23:44The driver got out of this pickup truck, but refused to remove the vehicle.
23:48Of course, if there's no driver, it's not allowed.
23:50No, it's not allowed.
23:53After 5 minutes, the vehicle was already anchored.
23:57And in the middle of the tow, the driver's acquaintance arrived.
24:01The driver who presented the license,
24:04his name will be covered.
24:06We cannot cover the company.
24:08It was hot in this hospital during the tow of an AUV.
24:12The motorists and its drivers were annoyed
24:15that the guards allowed them to park in front of the vehicle.
24:18I was in duty in this parking lot.
24:20I didn't talk to you, sir.
24:23That's true.
24:24I didn't say anything to you.
24:26We didn't say anything.
24:27You didn't say anything, sir.
24:29I didn't see you.
24:31What didn't you see?
24:32I didn't see you, sir.
24:33You saw me.
24:34Yes.
24:35I was also in duty here earlier.
24:37You didn't tell me, sir.
24:38In spite of all the chaos, the vehicle was still anchored.
24:42These clearing operations were organized by the MMDA
24:46so that the roads can be cleared during this Christmas rush.
24:49The mall areas are also being targeted.
24:51Enforcers added there to control the traffic.
24:54Roadworks are also prohibited from November 18 to December 25,
24:59except for road repairs of the DPWH
25:02and major infrastructure projects of the government.
25:09And Vicky, because there are surely many of us
25:12and our fellow countrymen who are still outside and on the road,
25:15just an update.
25:16The parts of EDSA are now divided into northbound or southbound.
25:20From Pasay to North EDSA, Balintawak, Muñoz,
25:25only a few were affected by the monument,
25:27but the other parts, all the other parts,
25:30Gapang, are affected by the heavy traffic.
25:33If you are a passenger, watch for 24 hours or rest first.
25:37If you are a driver, look for someone you can visit or talk to
25:41instead of worrying because we will still be here on the road, Vicky.
25:46Your advice is good. Thank you very much, Dano Tinkungco.
25:51More than 10,000 Negros Occidental were evacuated
25:55following the eruption of Volcano Canlaon yesterday.
25:58It left a thick abyss in different parts of Visayas,
26:03which is why some residents were still affected by the eruption.
26:07And from La Carlota City in Negros Occidental,
26:10Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV was live.
26:14Aileen.
26:19Vicky, even though the evacuees here at the evacuation center in La Carlota City
26:24are increasing, there are still some residents near the volcano
26:27who did not evacuate and chose to stay at their homes.
26:33From Himpapawid, we can see how the thick abyss
26:38left a large part of Barangay Mahaw and Ilihan in Bagos City, Negros Occidental.
26:42It seems that the color of the surroundings is gone,
26:44even though the trees are small due to the eruption of Volcano Canlaon yesterday.
26:49The road is also full of mud.
26:53It's so ugly, guys.
26:55You can't see the road anymore.
26:58Almost zero visibility on the roads.
27:01This is also the situation of some main roads in La Carlota City, Negros Occidental
27:06while the motorists were not able to cross the roads.
27:09In Barangay Araal, which is the most affected,
27:11DPWH workers were the first to carry out flushing operations.
27:18Residents were also affected by the smell of sulfur,
27:20that's why 60-year-old Lola Corazon felt the stickiness of the abyss.
27:25We don't know what to do.
27:27We don't know what to do.
27:28We don't know what to do.
27:29We don't know what to do.
27:30We don't know what to do.
27:31We don't know what to do.
27:33The family of Gote was also affected by the smell of sulfur
27:37due to the smell of ashfall.
27:39It's so ugly, guys.
27:41We don't know what to do.
27:43We don't know what to do.
27:46In the town of La Castellana,
27:48more than 7,000 residents were evacuated
27:51and are temporarily staying in 10 evacuation centers.
27:54In spite of the evacuation,
27:56some residents chose to stay in their homes.
28:00Ma'am, we chose to stay in our homes.
28:02If the volcano hit us,
28:07we would die.
28:11We would die, ma'am.
28:12Christy chose to stay in her job in the farm.
28:16We don't know what to do, ma'am.
28:19We don't know what to do.
28:22We don't know what to do, ma'am.
28:24We don't know what to do, ma'am.
28:26We don't know what to do, ma'am.
28:28According to the Negros Occidental PDRRMO,
28:30more than 10,000 people were evacuated
28:33in different parts of the province.
28:40Vicky, the residents here in La Carlota City
28:44are thankful that the activity of the volcano
28:46somehow came to an end today.
28:50It's a blessing for them
28:51that it will continue
28:53to return to their homes.
28:56That's the latest from La Carlota City.
28:58Back to you, Vicky.
29:00Thank you very much, Aileen Pedrezo
29:02of GMA Regional TV.
29:20...in Mayhay Laguna,
29:22followed by heavy rains yesterday.
29:24Some roads were flooded
29:26in Tagkawayan, Quezon.
29:28The water level is also high.
29:30Residents are helping each other
29:32to get away from the cars crossing the road.
29:34Floodwaters reached several places.
29:37Some parts of Bicol Region were also flooded
29:39like in Camarinasur.
29:41Five barangays in Del Callego were isolated
29:44because of the spillway.
29:46According to experts,
29:47it's still the effect of the shear line
29:49or the cold waves
29:51and the hot easterlies.
29:53According to the Metro Weather,
29:54it will continue to rain
29:55in some parts of Northern and Central Luzon,
29:57Quezon, Bicol Region and Mimaropa.
29:59There are still heavy to intense rains
30:01that could cause floods
30:02or cause landslides.
30:04The rain is spreading
30:05in Eastern and Central Visayas
30:07and in a large part of Mindanao.
30:09In the areas close to Callaon Volcano,
30:12there's a chance of rain
30:13in the Negros Island Region
30:14especially yesterday night.
30:15So be careful.
30:16It's also possible that it will rain
30:17in some parts of Metro Manila tomorrow.
30:19So don't forget to bring an umbrella.

31:59Christmas is coming
32:00but the Christmas market
32:01is still open
32:02in the Christmas Market
32:03in Baclaran.
32:04Some are selling.
32:06They are pricing
32:07for the return only.
32:09Mark Salazar won.
32:13In November,
32:17the Christmas Market
32:18in front of Baclaran Church
32:19is ready.
32:20The market is expected
32:21to be full
32:22just like last year.
32:24But there's still no one
32:25to choose
32:26even though it's already
32:27two weeks of Christmas.
32:29I can't feel December.
32:31Christmas is coming.
32:33Yes.
32:34I hope we can earn
32:35this Christmas
32:36because we're going
32:37to get it back this time.
32:39Maybe around 15
32:41we'll be able to earn.
32:43When the church is here
32:44at night?
32:45Yes, maybe.
32:46That's our hope.
32:47The vendors are hoping
32:48to add to the costumers
32:50the passengers of the
32:51upcoming LRT Extension
32:53Redemptory Station
32:55in front of the church.
32:57But the passengers
32:58I talked to
32:59of the LRT
33:00said they have plans
33:01to go shopping
33:02but there's still no shopping.
33:04Why isn't it complete?
33:05There's still no money.
33:07There's still no money.
33:08Do you know
33:09what your budget should be?
33:11There's still a lot of gifts.
33:12Yes, I hope it's 5,000.
33:13Who are the gifts?
33:15My grandchild and my siblings.
33:18Are you complete
33:19with your gift list?
33:20Have you bought everything?
33:21Not yet.
33:22Not yet?
33:23Not yet.
33:24How many more?
33:25Around 10.
33:29It's not complete yet?
33:30There's still no 13 months.
33:32There's still no 13 months.
33:33When will it be completed?
33:34Around 15.
33:36If it's already this close
33:37to Christmas,
33:39the passengers are desperate
33:41that's why they're pricing
33:42the return tickets.
33:44We're bargaining
33:46for the shelves.
33:47Won't you lose this?
33:49No, it's just that
33:51there's a tube
33:52but it's not that heavy.
33:53It's not the same as before
33:55where our windows are really high.
33:57For GMA Integrated News,
33:59Mark Salazar,
34:01for 24 Hours.
34:04The committee members
34:06in the camera
34:08in the rice industry
34:09that's why the price
34:10is still high
34:11in the market
34:12are facing
34:13the 10 biggest
34:14rice importers
34:15in the country
34:16who are being held
34:17accountable for the allegation
34:18that there's a cartel
34:19that manipulates
34:20the price of rice.
34:22We are joined by
34:23Jonathan Andal.
34:27They are the 10 biggest
34:29rice importers
34:30in the Philippines.
34:32Earlier,
34:33they were called
34:34by the 5th Committee of the camera
34:35to answer
34:36the allegation
34:37that there's a cartel
34:38that manipulates
34:39the price of rice.
34:40They immediately
34:41denied it.
34:42We don't have a cartel.
34:44We don't do
34:46profiteering.
34:50We're dictated
34:51by the market prices.
34:52We don't do hoarding.
34:54What's being blamed
34:55now is that
34:56we've become
34:57the spotlight
34:58of the importers
34:59where in fact
35:00what we see
35:01as a problem
35:02is the retailer.
35:04The Bureau of Customs
35:05when it comes to
35:06imported rice
35:07in the country,
35:08its price
35:09or landed cost
35:10is at P33 per kilo.
35:11The importer
35:12will get it
35:13and they say
35:14they sell it
35:15to the wholesaler
35:16for P35 to P40.
35:17The wholesaler
35:18sells the rice
35:19to the dealer
35:20before it reaches
35:21the retailer
35:22in the market.
35:23We're being fooled
35:24somewhere else.
35:25The customs
35:26already said
35:27it's P33.
35:28The wholesaler
35:29already said
35:30it's P35 to P40.
35:32Why in the market
35:33it's P50?
35:35A rice importer
35:36is a bit more
35:37contemptuous.
35:38He raised P1 billion
35:39worth of rice
35:40this year
35:41but he can't say
35:42how much
35:43they earned.
35:46It's impossible
35:47that you don't know
35:48how much you earned.
35:50My wife
35:51is the one
35:52who computes there.
35:53Sir?
35:54My wife
35:55is the one
35:56who computes there.
35:57Our detention facility
35:58is spacious,
35:59Mr. Chair.
36:00I'll tell you
36:01the truth.
36:02Yeah.
36:03I think you're lying.
36:05We're wondering
36:06why the prices
36:07are so high
36:08and the importer
36:09doesn't know anything.
36:11I can't accept that,
36:12Mr. Chair.
36:14May I now request
36:16AMLA,
36:18Mr. Chair,
36:20to check
36:21the financial records
36:23and transactions
36:25of all these
36:27top importers
36:29because
36:30if they don't have
36:31the capability
36:33to finance
36:35their importation,
36:37someone
36:38or somebody
36:39is financing them.
36:42A congressman
36:43took over
36:44the BPI
36:45or Bureau of Plant Industry
36:46because
36:47they don't know
36:48that two
36:49out of the ten
36:50largest importers
36:51of rice
36:52in the country
36:53are mothers.
36:54BPI,
36:55did you not check
36:56whether or not
36:57these two companies
36:58were actually owned
36:59by one individual?
37:00No,
37:01we didn't check.
37:02Why didn't you check?
37:03Sir,
37:04we're reviewing it now.
37:05You can't
37:06review it now.
37:08It's already done.
37:09You're going to do
37:10your job now.
37:11You should have
37:12checked it
37:13when they were
37:14still applying.
37:15Congressmen
37:16thought
37:17that there was
37:18a sabotage
37:19in the rice industry
37:20because the prices
37:21are still high
37:22in the markets
37:23even though
37:24there's an oversupply
37:25of rice
37:26and even though
37:27the tariff
37:28was reduced
37:29by 20%
37:30since July.
37:31It is
37:32a puzzle
37:33for us
37:34that
37:35perhaps
37:36this
37:37deserves
37:38a more
37:39nuanced analysis.
37:40The farm gate
37:41price
37:42went down.
37:43The landed
37:44cost
37:45went down.
37:46It should
37:47translate
37:48to lower retail
37:49but that's not
37:50what happened.
37:51Our
37:52rice
37:53is in the
37:54warehouse.
37:55They don't
37:56export it
37:57so the
37:58price
37:59doesn't go down.
38:00They will tell
38:01the farmers
38:02that they
38:03can't buy
38:04the rice
38:05if they
38:06don't
38:07export it
38:08because
38:09they don't
38:10really need
38:11rice.
38:12So,
38:13the farmers
38:14were affected.
38:15Nothing happened
38:16to the consumers
38:17because
38:18there was
38:19a sabotage.
38:20There was
38:21a cartel
38:22going on.
38:23There are
38:24some
38:25events
38:26in our
38:27government
38:28agencies
38:29where
38:30our
38:31target
38:32is to
38:33lower the
38:34price of
38:35rice.
38:36The Department
38:37of Agriculture
38:38can't say
38:39if there's
38:40a cartel
38:41in rice.
38:42Seems like
38:43there's a
38:44cartel-like
38:45market
38:46environment
38:47but I
38:48cannot
38:49categorize
38:50it as
38:51there is
38:52because
38:53it's not
38:54mandated
38:55to say
38:56that.
38:57For
38:58the
38:59next
39:00Saturday,
39:01we'll
39:02find out
39:03who will
