00:00The deep devotion, prayers, and prayers of many Filipinos are in full swing
00:06every time the worship service starts at night.
00:09How about we put the situation to one of the most requested by the devotees,
00:14the Baclaran Church.
00:16Mark Salazar is live there.
00:19Mark?
00:23Mel, the worship service starts at night.
00:25For many, this is an opportunity to lay down their petitions for 2025
00:32or thanksgiving prayer for the end of 2024.
00:41The Our Lady of Perpetual Help Shrine or Baclaran Church is one of the places
00:45that is added to the worship service every night.
00:47There is not enough space inside the church for the devotees
00:51so the church grounds are full.
00:54This is one of the 40,000 police that are deployed to guard the church at night
00:59throughout the country.
01:01This is what we should always remember as Catholics,
01:06that Christmas is way more than all the commercial aspects of the celebration of Christmas.
01:13The very reason of Christmas celebration is Jesus Himself,
01:18the gift of God Himself through Jesus.
01:21The story of life of the devotees here is different.
01:25They are carrying a heavy burden.
01:27The very first Christmas was not a joyful celebration.
01:31It was not a joyful journey.
01:33The Holy Family had their own share of struggles and difficulties
01:36on the journey towards the first Christmas.
01:39And we can draw strength and inspiration from that
01:44in the midst of our personal struggles as well.
01:47They are also thankful for the blessings and blessings of life.
01:51We are a complete family and we are safe and happy this Christmas.
01:56Our whole family is united.
02:02Last year, we had a problem.
02:04Others are praying for a smooth victory in the next year.
02:10I just want the family to be in good health.
02:12I just want my house to be finished.
02:15I just want the family to be saved.
02:17I just want the family to be in good health.
02:21One of the things that we learned is that even though life is full of trials,
02:26devotion never ceases.
02:29At first, we were burned.
02:33My children died. It was so hard.
02:36My children were happy.
02:38My children told me,
02:39Mother, what can we do? We are still eight.
02:42If you will be gone,
02:46I will stay with him.
02:55Until December 24,
02:57the anticipated mass is here at 8 p.m.
03:00and for the actual Mass of Galio,
03:03there are two mass in the early hours,
03:05the 4 a.m. and the 5.30 a.m. mass.
03:08But even though there is no mass here,
03:10visitors continue to come here
03:13to see the bright lights of the Church,
03:16and of course, the bargain shopping around the Church.
03:20There are also many food stalls in the parking area of the Church
03:25for the banchettos and food trips of our visitors here.
03:29From here in Baclaran,
03:31for Jemmy Integrated News,
03:33Mark Salazar speaking, 24 hours.
03:35Thank you very much, Mark.
03:37Thank you, Mark Salazar.
03:39There are employees from Pogo who lost their jobs
03:43following the ban.
03:44It's hard for them to find a job
03:46that is in line with their previous income.
03:49Oscar Oida will tell you the story.
03:55The 31-year-old Princess is struggling
03:59to find a job.
04:02Pogo Company has already closed
04:05where she used to work as an online casino dealer.
04:09Princess is just one of the 27,000 Pogo employees
04:14who lost their jobs.
04:16Because this week is effective, December 15,
04:19the licenses of the remaining Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators, or POGO,
04:24have already been returned.
04:26Princess has a bad feeling
04:28that even those who work for the legal POGO are affected.
04:33How about those of us who pay taxes?
04:35We also have a job here in the society.
04:38Compared to other jobs in the Philippines,
04:40there is a lot of care, free food, everything is free.
04:44Your transportation to work is free.
04:48Then when it comes to salary, it's really higher.
04:52President Marcos will remember all the POGO employees in the country
04:57after discovering that there are POGO hubs
05:00that are involved in illegal activities
05:02such as scamming, money laundering, prostitution, human trafficking, kidnapping,
05:09even kidnapping, torture, and murder.
05:12Following the closure of POGO,
05:14the Department of Labor and Employment, or DOLE,
05:17followed the job fairs held as assistance to those who lost their jobs.
05:23But only a few are applying.
05:26They want to find a job similar to what they are doing
05:30that will give equal or higher benefits.
05:35Most of the job vacancies offered in job fairs
05:41are entry-level positions.
05:45That is why DOLE is looking for other opportunities for those who lost their jobs.
05:51Their assistance is not limited to those who work in POGO.
05:57We will make sure that we will help those who will come to DOLE.
06:02Those who will not come, we will reach out.
06:05For GEMA Integrated News, Oscar Oida,
06:09for 24 Hours.
06:15We will be right back to update you on Sherby's Happenings.
06:20Green Bones, Drek Zigg-Dulay,
06:23was recognized as one of the 10 Outstanding Young Men Awardees of 2024.
06:28The director was given the category of Arts and Culture for TV and Film.
06:34Drek Zigg is known for several projects,
06:37such as the award-winning film Firefly
06:39and the upcoming MMFF film Green Bones.
06:43He is also behind the GMA Prime series Widow's War,
06:47My Guardian Alien, and Maria Clara at Ibarra.
06:52We have another set of SPARKLE graduates this month.
06:56Very proud of the new batch of stars is SPARKLE workshop facilitator, Ana Filio,
07:01because of their talent and excellence.
07:05Ana said that others in the GMA Projects can now rely on them.
07:12Sales in the fireworks capital of the Philippines are strong.
07:16More than two weeks before the new year,
07:20the police discovered illegal fireworks.
07:25Rafi Tima was arrested.
07:34Unlike last year,
07:36JV, a fireworks reseller,
07:38is the most popular buyer of fireworks in Bukawai, Bulacan.
07:42That's why it's easy to choose and JV got a discount
07:46when he just bought fireworks to sell and use for the 2025 celebration.
07:52I buy this every year.
07:54It's a bit expensive now,
07:57so we just bought it early.
07:59Every weekend, there are more buyers
08:02since December.
08:04But because it's not yet Christmas,
08:06it's best to buy on days like this
08:08because you don't have to rush.
08:10This is our classic.
08:12It's 25 pesos.
08:13It's silver.
08:14Small silver.
08:15But just now,
08:16the PNP Civil Security Group
08:18released a list of 22 illegal fireworks
08:22under Executive Order 28
08:24and Republic Act 7183,
08:26including Watusi and Piccolo,
08:29Five Star,
08:30Plapla and Lolo Thunder,
08:32as well as fireworks with different names
08:34like Super Yolanda and Goodbye Chismosa.
08:38According to the sellers here in Bukawai,
08:40since they banned powerful fireworks,
08:43they are now looking for more
08:45lighting and aerial fireworks
08:47that last only a few minutes.
08:50And if there are fireworks that are still being sold,
08:53these are just smaller three stars.
08:55The demand for powerful fireworks has also decreased.
08:59That's all we have,
09:00just 100 shots.
09:01It's called Higad.
09:03There's Iksi.
09:06Some are still looking for traditional fireworks.
09:09According to the police,
09:10it's still okay to just watch
09:12the community fireworks display
09:14to celebrate the new year.
09:16For GMI Integrated News,
09:18Rafi Tima has been talking for 24 hours.
09:23Senator Jingo Estrada questioned
09:25the release of his pornographic content
09:28on streaming platforms like Viva Max.
09:31In a privileged speech,
09:33Estrada said
09:34the agreement between Viva Max and MTRCB
09:37was not being fulfilled last year.
09:40Here, Viva Max promised to self-regulate
09:43after they received complaints
09:45about the pornographic content.
09:47Estrada added,
09:48it's okay because it's becoming normal
09:50to put this kind of digital content
09:53that is easier for young people to access.
09:56There are also some who are against
09:58the artists who are doing it.
10:00GMI Integrated News tried to get
10:02Viva Max's statement,
10:04but they still have no answer.
10:09While I acknowledge the importance
10:11of artistic freedom and creative expression,
10:16these should come with boundaries,
10:19especially when they begin
10:22to undermine our society's moral fabric.
10:27This situation is even more concerning
10:32because many of these materials
10:34are easily accessible
10:36and may target younger audiences
10:39who are more susceptible to influence.
10:47In the upcoming comeback
10:49of WALANG MATIGAS NA POLIS
10:50SA MATINIK NA MISSES Season 3,
10:52Senator Bong Revilla's big revelation
10:55about his children.
10:57Let's talk to Lars Santiago.
11:02At the Grand Media Conference
11:04of the Comedy Action Weekly Series,
11:06WALANG MATIGAS NA POLIS
11:08SA MATINIK NA MISSES Season 3,
11:11Senator Bong Revilla admitted
11:13that he has illegitimate children.
11:18They know the truth.
11:20There are.
11:21But I'm not going to...
11:24But there are.
11:25You'll know who they are.
11:30He's not ashamed of it
11:32because he knows that he has a family
11:35with Lani Mercado
11:37and their six children.
11:39You can't hide it.
11:41It's unfair to the children.
11:43If it's your child, it's your child.
11:45It's your blood. Love it.
11:47And I'm not ashamed of it.
11:49For now,
11:50Senator Bong and Beauty Gonzales
11:53are excited
11:54about the return of their series
11:57starting this coming Sunday,
11:59December 22.
12:01He's not just a fan of action scenes
12:09and literal explosions.
12:11There are many more in the cast
12:13like Gloria Diaz,
12:15Rafael Andicho,
12:17and Gillian Ward
12:19who will also join Bong
12:21in a big movie.
12:23Whatever they're looking for in a movie,
12:25they'll see on television.
12:27We don't want to shortchange them.
12:29I hope they don't miss it
12:31because it's only seven weeks.
12:33Every week,
12:35there are different explosions.
12:37It's really very exciting.
12:39Also joining MediaCon

12:52and the social media personality
12:54Boss Toyo
12:56who is acting for the first time.
12:59Also present are
13:01GMA Senior Vice President
13:03Annette Gozon-Valdez
13:05and other GMA executives.
13:08I'm glad that instead of a movie,
13:12his partnership with GMA
13:15is a TV show
13:17where there's no hard police
13:19in Matinik na Misis Season 3
13:21because more people can watch it on TV
13:24and it's free.
13:26I'm glad that more people
13:28will be able to give presents
13:30to Sen in his TV show.
