NewsTranscript
00:00The house in Labo, Camarines Norte has been completely demolished.
00:12The land has become soft due to the lack of rain.
00:15The owner of the house is also injured.
00:18The Maharlika Highway also split.
00:22In Tagkawayan, Quezon, three barangays were affected due to the heavy rain.
00:27According to the weather forecast, it is expected that it will rain in the eastern sections of Central and Southern Luzon.
00:36Four days before the cancellation of all licenses of POGO and IGL or Internet Gambling Licensees in the country,
00:44President Bongbong Marcos was in the news.
00:47In a post, the President said that the whole force of the law will face
00:51those who will attempt to carry out the illegal operation of POGO.
00:55He also said that he will never allow these to happen in the country.
01:00The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission is targeting the 100 guerrilla POGOs or smaller POGOs.
01:07The DILG is asking all local chief executives to report to them if there are POGOs that are being set up in their areas.
01:18Despite the non-stopping of the NBI, Vice President Sara Duterte
01:23did not blame the gangsters against the President, the First Lady, and the House Speaker.
01:28This is a report by John Consulta.
01:33On November 29, the NBI called Vice President Sara Duterte for the first time
01:39to explain that she already talked to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.,
01:45First Lady Liza Marcos, and Speaker Martin Romualdez if something bad happened to her.
01:50But because Vice President Sara is a no-show, she was fired on December 11.
01:54But earlier, Vice President Sara did not confront her again.
01:58Her lawyer arrived.
02:00The letter said that the lawyers asked Vice President Sara not to attend the invitation of the NBI
02:07and not to pass the sworn affidavit instead of the NBI to the media in front of Vice President Sara.
02:13I don't think this investigation will be fair
02:18because if you saw the message of the President,
02:27he said that these are criminal acts that I will not let pass.
02:32There is bias there.
02:35So even if they say that there is an investigation,
02:39they already decided to file cases from the beginning.
02:44Vice President Sara was also asked if she will blame her allies.
02:48No ma'am.
02:49It's a good thing that they know that if I die, I will not die in vain.
02:57She insisted that she has nothing to explain
02:59other than the use of confidential funds of the Office of the Vice President and Deputy.
03:04Even though she already filed two impeachment complaints against her,
03:08she did not mention it.
03:10She has nothing to do with the preparation of the acknowledgement receipts
03:13that were questioned by the camera.
03:14If the people who signed the receipts are real,
03:16especially those who have no record in the PSA,
03:20the use of her confidential funds has something to do with the 2028 elections.
03:26She also has no plan to escape.
03:28I do not plan to leave the country or I do not plan to hide if there will be a warrant of arrest,
03:34mainly because my children are here.
03:38The NBI is not yet closing the door for the Vice President.
03:42They will just continue the search for evidence
03:45and expect to submit the result of their fact-finding investigation
03:50and recommendation to the DOJ on the first half of January.
03:54We cannot blame him if he thinks that way.
03:57But we also remain clear that the investigation will be fair.
04:05We have nothing to do with it.
04:07The investigation will be impartial.
04:37They have no plan for this that can be used by congressmen and senators.
04:42This is included in the DSWD's fund.
04:45PhilHealth has zero subsidy in 2025
04:48because it still has 600 billion pesos of reserve funds.
04:52The budget of the Office of the Vice President remains at 733 million pesos.
04:58The Presidential Communications Office said
05:01that it is possible that President Marcos will sign the budget on December 20.
05:07The problem of the local government of La Castellana in Negros Occidental
05:11is the insufficient supply of food and other needs of thousands of people
05:16following the eruption of volcano Canlaon.
05:19The expansion of mandatory evacuation is also being studied due to the flood.
05:24Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV has a report.
05:31La Castellana Elementary School is one of the 11 evacuation centers in the city.
05:35After the eruption of volcano Canlaon on Monday,
05:38more than 7,000 residents evacuated to the city.
05:41While their stay in the evacuation centers is taking a long time,
05:44the problem of the LGU is the lack of food and other needs.
05:47We have no food.
05:50Our situation is very bad.
05:52We have no food.
05:54Our problem is the food.
05:56Of course, the DSWD, the province, has food packs that we can repack.
06:02We need to give them vegetables or any food.
06:06So that is the problem.
06:08And of course, mobility and transportation.
06:10It is possible that more evacuees will be added if the alert level is raised to level 4.
06:14This means that the volcano will explode at any time.
06:17The LGUs should urge the public to prepare.
06:21We should not think that the alert level will be lowered down,
06:25but we should prepare as if the alert level will go up.
06:28Since the eruption of the volcano Canlaon on December 9,
06:33it reached 31 in the past 24 hours, according to PHEVOX.
06:38While the sulfur dioxide emission is more than double
06:41and reached 4,000 tons per day.
06:43According to the DENR,
06:44the affected areas are located in 30 towns and villages.
06:48There is a risk of flooding if it rains,
06:50so the government is studying the scope of the mandatory evacuation.
06:54The poor rain in La Carlota City last night brought a foul smell.
06:58I was nervous.
07:00I was afraid that it will be an emergency.
07:06The Department of Tourism suspended the tourism activities
07:10in La Castellana, La Carlota City, Bago City,
07:14and Murcia, Negros Occidental,
07:16as well as the city in Negros Oriental.
07:18Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV
07:21reporting for GMA Integrating News.
07:25Philippine caregivers need help in Croatia, Slovenia, Denmark, and Singapore.
07:34According to the Department of Migrant Workers or DMW,
07:36Denmark is looking for nurses, nursing assistants, and caregivers.
07:42The Philippine Central Bank reminds that it is free
07:45to exchange crispy peso bills with banks.
07:49Unfit legal tender banknotes can be exchanged.
07:52These are paper or polymer bills that are dirty,
07:54stained, written or marked,
07:57scratched,
07:58torn,
07:58or have a lot of scratches or scratches.
08:01They also insisted on making new banknotes and coins,
08:05especially since their demand is high every Christmas.
