00:00Komalek and the NBI reached an agreement to fight the various violations of the election rules.

00:06One of Komalek's hopes is a massive vote-buying in 2025.

00:11Witness, Mackie Pulido.

00:13The purchase of votes is like the age of elections in the country,

00:20and it will not be different in the upcoming 2025 elections.

00:23We expect that in the upcoming elections, the election will be massive.

00:28Payment platforms are now used to buy votes.

00:31But Garcia thinks that in the 2025 elections, money will be more personal.

00:36Vote buyers already know that this is monitored by the payment platform itself,

00:41which will immediately report to Komalek.

00:43If you send more than 20 people in one day, in one transaction,

00:48we will pressure you to engage in vote buying.

00:51According to OCTA Research, most Filipinos do not sell votes.

00:56But it is rare for poor voters to be monitored by politicians.

01:01There are many types of vote buying, including in cash or in-kind.

01:04And it is rare that it is done in the last few days before the election,

01:07according to political analyst Ranjit Rai.

01:10Instead of thinking long term,

01:12and thinking of big things like democracy, citizenship, and leadership,

01:17they look at the short term.

01:19It's a chance for us to lead.

01:21More often than not, the whole family buys votes.

01:24This is a hindrance at the local level or for the positions of the councilor,

01:28mayor, governor, or congressman.

01:30There's a package given to the family to vote or not to vote.

01:34Certain communities and barangays that are not favorable,

01:38local politicians will try to either prevent them from voting or encourage them to vote.

01:43Komalek said that vote buying weakens the integrity of the election.

01:47That's why the Memorandum of Agreement was passed by Komalek and NBI

01:51to ensure that not only vote buying, but also other violations of election rules.

01:56I will not tell you what action we will take

02:00because they will know.

02:02But we already have a plan.

02:04For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, your Saksi.

02:08My fellow Filipinos, be the first to watch.
