00:00Aside from ham, the Lechon is also a staple in Hapag ng Ilan every Christmas Eve.
00:08It's now being sold in La Loma in Quezon City, but the Health Department has a reminder.
00:14From there, Raffy Quima is live.
00:17Raffy?
00:21Mayor, despite the heavy rains, the buyers are still buying from La Loma.
00:28It's hard to find someone who's willing to buy from La Loma every Christmas Eve.
00:32It's not just the Lechon that's expensive, but there's a lot to choose from.
00:41As expected, the Lechon is a blockbuster here in La Loma.
00:45The line of Golden Crispy Lechon doesn't take long to arrive.
00:50This Lechon will soon be on display.
00:53It's not that expensive.
00:55Although the Lechon is a bit short, the price is still around 8,000 to 10,000 pesos.
01:04This family has been selling Lechon for more than two decades.
01:08They prepare the Lechon every Christmas Eve.
01:11Before, they could only buy 6,500 Lechon.
01:14Now, the price has doubled.
01:16For 25,000 pesos, we need a Lechon.
01:20So even if the Lechon is expensive, you will continue this tradition?
01:24Yes.
01:27In fact, these Lechon are already cheap because most of the pork comes from backyard hog raisers.
01:33But because the preparation is fast, it's really expensive once it's cooked.
01:38From the cutting that is done in this part of the establishment until the Lechon is cooked,
01:44it takes up to 6 to 8 hours depending on the size.
01:49The Lechon has been cooked for two hours and it's almost done.
01:53They add a secret ingredient that makes the Lechon more delicious.
02:00But DOH reminds us to be careful when eating fat foods like Lechon.
02:05Even if we have a lot of preparations, our diet should still be balanced.
02:09For our plate, we should have half fruits and vegetables,
02:12one-fourth carbohydrates or rice and pancit,
02:16and one-fourth Lechon, ham, etc.
02:19Chito, who buys Lechon from La Loma, admitted that he knows someone who avoids Lechon.
02:25My stomach hurts.
02:28That's why you should be careful when eating fat foods.
02:36Most of the stores here close at 10 p.m.
02:39But there are also open 24 hours.
02:41Tomorrow morning, they will return to Lechon
02:44because many people are still expecting to buy until the end of the new year.
02:49That's the latest from La Loma.
02:51Mel?
02:52Rafi, please help me with this.
02:54My skin is itching.
02:57Thank you very much, Rafi Tima.
03:02Not only cars are following the Christmas rush in S-Lex,
03:07there is also a group of goats.
03:09It's going to rain, so let's check out the traffic on live
03:12with John Tresilla.
03:15John!
03:20Vicky, there is heavy rain on different parts of the South Losor Expressway today.
03:25But despite this, the traffic is still light this Christmas Eve.
03:32The road in most parts of S-Lex is wet from Magallanes to Calamba
03:38because of the heavy rain.
03:40That's why the towing and emergency units of S-Lex and HPG are on standby
03:45to assist the motorists in case they need it.
03:48Our roads are very wide.
03:51We should be careful not to go too far,
03:54especially during this time.
03:56There are areas where it rains and the road is slippery.
04:00At 11 o'clock this morning, S-Lex Traffic Monitoring Center
04:04was able to transfer the goats that entered the expressway
04:06that they immediately took action on.
04:08Less than 3 minutes later, a motorcycle unit of S-Lex arrived
04:12that quickly escorted the goats out of the expressway
04:15to avoid danger to the vehicles passing by.
04:18SMC also announced to our motorists
04:21the free toll or free use of the Skyway system
04:25of EX, South Losor Expressway, Star Tollway and T-Plex
04:29from 10 p.m. on December 24 until 6 a.m. tomorrow, December 25.
04:43Vicky, there are S-Lex Traffic Monitoring Center accidents
04:47in the areas of Santa Rosa and Calamba yesterday.
04:52So, as a reminder, be careful for our motorists.
04:56Let them be safe here in S-Lex.
04:58Back to you, Vicky.
04:59Thank you very much, John Consulta.
05:03Let's take a look at the situation in Divisoria
05:06where there are people running to buy food.
05:10It's broadcast live.
05:17Emil, until now, it's still raining here in Divisoria, Manila,
05:20but the crowds did not stop for the last-minute Christmas shopping.
05:27Because of the rain, some stores were forced to shut down.
05:30But when the rain stopped, it rained again.
05:33The vendors did not stop the rain.
05:36There are still people here in Divisoria, Manila
05:39to do Christmas shopping this Christmas Eve.
05:42That's when we got the money for the bonuses.
05:45The price is good, but it's low compared to normal days.
05:52The past days were very busy, but now it's free.
05:57Beng-Beng, for example, has been shopping for 24 hours.
06:01Unlike before, there are a lot of people.
06:04It's really crowded.
06:06That's why whenever we shop like this,
06:09there's not a lot of people.
06:11It's cheaper here than in our market.
06:14The price is almost the same.
06:18For those who are in a rush to buy gifts,
06:20you can buy dresses and children's toys here.
06:23If you want an all-out Christmas,
06:25there's a Santa costume for kids.
06:27You can also sell assorted toys.
06:29There are also gift packages,
06:31such as tumblers, towels, and sleeping pads.
06:34Vendors like Rita are in a rush to get home before Christmas.
06:40There were more people last year than now.
06:44Now, it's a bit crowded.
06:48When is Christmas?
06:50Sometimes, we also close.
06:53As long as there's income.
06:56According to the police,
06:57no petty crimes have been reported,
06:59such as thefts until yesterday.
07:01But they repeatedly remind people to be careful
07:04and to be careful with their personal belongings.
07:07Yesterday, two missing children were reported,
07:09but there's still no update on this.
07:11Police are also on their way to keep an eye on this.
07:14Be careful with your personal belongings,
07:17such as cellphones, wallets, and gadgets.
07:21Be alert.
07:22But they are still on their way to Divisoria.
07:24Tomorrow, on Christmas Day,
07:25you can still buy if you're already married to Ninong and Ninang Emil.
07:29Thank you very much, Mav Gonzales.
07:33A man was arrested for smuggling and smuggling drugs
07:37because he was not allowed to sell drugs.
07:39The two customers were killed.
07:41Ninong and Ninang were charged by the seller.
07:44This is my exclusive report.
07:50The situation was bad when the CIDG arrived in Don Sol, Sarsagon.
07:57But this was a benefit to the police
07:59because he was the target of the police.
08:01They just stayed inside his house,
08:03that's why he was arrested quickly.
08:05We'll arrest you, okay?
08:06He was arrested on a warrant of arrest
08:08because of the alleged killing of two men in Imus, Cavite,
08:11in October last year.
08:13Someone came to us and said that our suspect is hiding in Don Sol, Sarsagon.
08:22This CCTV footage was held by the police
08:24where the suspect can be seen escaping from the crime scene.
08:27The reason is that his two neighbors were killed in a car accident.
08:32The drugs were bought by our suspect in a store,
08:36but he was not allowed to buy it.
08:38Our two victims were sold drugs and the suspect was envious.
08:44The two victims' necks were slashed.
08:47The suspect was drunk, that's why he was not allowed to sell drugs.
08:53Jeremy Integrated News spoke to the parents of one of the victims.
08:56Thank you to all the CIDG.
09:00They helped us, they didn't let us down.
09:03My dream of arresting the suspect came true.
09:08My son died.
09:10I would like to thank the group of CIDG Imus.
09:14They were the ones who pursued the case.
09:17Even though the vehicle was far away,
09:19I prayed that the person would be arrested
09:21to give me the responsibility.
09:23In the investigation of the CIDG,
09:25the suspect was also involved in other murder cases in other places.
09:29Our suspect was also involved in a crime on November 2, 2015,
09:38here in Bukandala, Imus, Cavite.
09:41He also had a murder case on September 11, 2012 in Don Sol, Sosogon.
09:50What he did was he slashed the victim.
09:58It looks like he's a hardened criminal.
10:00Yes.
10:01We are working hard to get the suspect for GMA Integrated News.
10:06Emil Sumangil, Nakatutok 24 Hours.
10:10Find out if the rain has an effect on the traffic in Metro Manila,
10:16in Edsa.
10:17This is broadcast live by Tina Pangaliban Perez.
10:20Tina?
10:25We are used to the slow traffic in Edsa every day.
10:29But this Christmas Eve,
10:31the traffic is faster even if it's raining.
10:39The traffic continued earlier this morning in the southbound lane of Edsa.
10:44In Edsa Kamuning Flyover, Campo Krami, Ortigas, and Guadalupe.
10:50But the traffic continued earlier this morning in the southbound lane of Santolan
10:55because there were cars queuing up for the flyover.
11:00When it rained, the cars continued to run.
11:03In the northbound lane,
11:05the cars from Santolan Flyover to Cubao Underpass had no problem.
11:11But the traffic slowed down near Mega Q Mart
11:14because of the cars transporting passengers to the bus terminals.
11:19The northbound Edsa Kamuning Flyover and Edsa Quezon Avenue Flyover were slow.
11:25Cars were also running from the Edsa North Avenue intersection to Muñoz.
11:31Some of the cars were running slower in the U-turn slots
11:35because the U-turn slots merged and the cars were running straight.
11:40It rained this afternoon, but the traffic continued.
11:44The southbound Edsa Kamuning Flyover was running fast,
11:48but it slowed down near Cubao Underpass.
11:51The traffic was slow in Boni Avenue and southbound,
11:56as well as in the southbound Santolan Flyover and southbound Shaw Underpass.
12:01Cars were also moving in the southbound lane of Ortigas Flyover.
12:11Some accidents were recorded by the MMDA,
12:14not only in Edsa, but also in other streets.
12:18But even though there were injured,
12:21the MMDA assured that they were helped.
12:24And tonight, the malls will close early.
12:28The closing time is 7 or 8 p.m. this Christmas Eve.
12:32To our Kapuso, Merry Christmas!
12:34And to you too, Mel!
12:36And to you too, Tina!
12:38Thank you so much!
12:39Tina Panganibang Perez!
12:42If it's raining in other parts of the country this Christmas Eve,
12:46it's as if the tourists who came to Boracay were lucky.
12:50And Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV is live there.
12:54Kim!
13:00Vicky, there's no cold Christmas here in Boracay,
13:03especially when there were a few people sunbathing.
13:08I'm sunbathing.
13:12The jetty ports in Malayaklan were filled with tourists on Christmas Eve.
13:16They traveled to Boracay to celebrate the Christmas in White Sand Beaches
13:21with their loved ones.
13:23In Boracay, everything is already there.
13:25You just have to go out. The beach is there.
13:27The food is there.
13:28You don't have to be tired.
13:31It's perfect for families because it's complete.
13:34There's a lot of activities that you can choose from.
13:39Some enjoyed sunbathing on the beachfront.
13:43In Germany, the weather is snow. That's why we like to go here and enjoy the sun.
13:48Almost 8,000 tourists arrived on the island yesterday, according to the Malay Tourism Office.
13:54The security is tight and the luggage of the passengers in the port is checked one by one.
13:59Immediately, they are confiscated.
14:03There are also police deployed in different parts of Boracay.
14:06We have an intensified police presence.
14:08All of our personnel, even office personnel, are also deployed.
14:15The Malay LGU Municipal Incident Management Team is currently in a heightened alert status until the end of the year.
14:22Every day, we have a personnel and planning meeting.
14:26We discuss what can be done to ensure the safety of all tourists.
14:37Vicky, three mass will be held later at 9 p.m. on the island.
14:43Some establishments will have parties.
14:46That's why the police will be added to Boracay.
14:51That's the latest from Boracay Island.
14:53Merry Christmas, Vicky.
14:54Merry Christmas, Kapuso.
14:56Merry Christmas, too.
14:57Thank you very much, Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV.
