00:00This is the first news of the fire in Tondo, Manila.
00:25The residents of Pilapil Street in Tondo, Manila, who celebrated Christmas Eve last night,
00:35also helped in extinguishing the fire.
00:42The senior citizen, Mang Rogelio, was almost suffocated inside their house where the fire started.
00:50When I woke up, it was already smoking.
00:52What we did was, we went to God Buddha.
00:55That's where we jumped.
00:57That's where I got injured.
01:01The brother of his wife got injured after falling while trying to escape.
01:07This resident was only able to save a few important documents.
01:12According to the Bureau of Fire Protection, the street is close to the area.
01:16But they didn't have a hard time extinguishing the fire that reached the first alarm.
01:22Romes Ponde was not able to get out of the four fire trucks.
01:26It's also a big thing that there are still many people outside due to the fire.
01:31We were able to call quickly because there were a lot of people.
01:33They were prepared. They saw it right away.
01:35They reported it right away. They took action right away.
01:37According to the barangay, around 30 families lost their homes due to the fire.
01:43It should be noted that in 2021, the same house that was burned last night was also burned.
01:49It's painful to say because the inside of the house is covered with jampers.
01:55Maybe it's time for us to take action.
01:58Even so, the family of Mang Rogelio did not respond to this.
02:03They also don't know why their house was burned several times.
02:07The residents will remain in the Covered Court of the barangay.
02:11The BFP is still investigating the cause of the fire.
02:16This is the first news, Jomer Apresto for GMA Integrated News.
02:24There are many incidents of fires in the country this month of December.
02:29According to the Bureau of Fire Protection, from December 1 to Christmas,
02:33there were already 756 fires in the country.
02:38This is lower than the previous year.
02:42As for the common causes of fires, there are problems with the electricity,
02:47firewood, cooking, octopus wiring, and even the burning of garbage.
02:54We are coming back from the Fireworks Capital of the country, Bukawayo, Bulacan,
02:59where at this time, the situation is still the same.
03:01There are some early birds that come here to buy fireworks and lights for the celebration of 2025.
03:12As you can see behind me, there are several vehicles here that are already buying fireworks and lights.
03:19We can see that they are loading a lot of things in their vehicles.
03:24There are already a few.
03:26According to the people we talked to here, they are a bit shy, they don't want to be interviewed,
03:32but what they are saying is that since December 26,
03:36Christmas has already been celebrated by our countrymen,
03:39the number of buyers will start to decrease.
03:43As for the preparation for the new year, they said that the price did not rise.
03:49There are times when the buyers are loading things, there are times when they are lazy,
03:54but here, they are expecting that this day will start,
03:57and in the next few days until the new year, the number of buyers will continue to increase.
04:02For those who are planning to buy fireworks and lights,
04:06these are the prices, anywhere from a few hundreds to several thousands,
04:11depending on your budget.
04:13If you want the louses, three for Php 200.
04:18Three for Php 200.
04:20As for the fountains, depending on the size, there are Php 150 to Php 200.
04:26If you want the aerial fireworks, Php 1,000 or more,
04:35you need to prepare to buy those fireworks and lights.
04:41That is our update from Bukayi Bulacan.
04:45As for the continuation of reminding the authorities,
04:48we talked earlier with the Bureau of Fire Protection,
04:50first of all, choose your purchases.
04:53All of these stores were inspected and all of these were given a permit.
04:59That is why the products they are selling are safe.
05:04But of course, you will buy it now, but you will use it in December 31.
05:08So you need to keep it in a dry place and of course,
05:11keep it away from possible sparks of fire.
05:17Meanwhile, in other news, we went to Bacolod City.
05:22Twenty fireworks were set off in Barangay Banago.
05:27The fireworks were made by the minors themselves.
05:32Some residents also complained about the bad smell
05:35coming from the use of fireworks,
05:37which is the reason for their lack of income.
05:40According to the police, they will consult with the social worker
05:43in charge of the minors involved in the making of the fireworks.
05:46Meanwhile, in Talisay City in Cebu, Sinamsam,
05:49more than 500 fireworks were sold on the streets this Christmas Eve.
05:55It is estimated to be worth Php 20,000.
05:58The police operation against the illegal fireworks continues.
06:05Even in outer space, Christmas is still felt.
06:08In the video uploaded on Chandra X-ray on IG,
06:12there is a Christmas tree in the distance.
06:15It is green in color.
06:17There are some different lights that look like Christmas lights decoration.
06:21That is what is called the Christmas tree cluster.
06:24This is a star cluster or a group of stars in the distance.

07:03This is how Filipinos celebrate Christmas.

07:22It is like there is a concert in front of your house.
07:26Daniel Abarico, the great speaker and microphone of the Philippines,
07:30sang a lot of songs.
07:32This is what he enjoyed the most.
07:34He also participated in singing contests.
07:36That is why the performance level is so high.
07:49It is like the Seminarists of St. Benedict Diocesan Seminary are cheering for you.
07:54That is why Christmas is not just full,

08:00the coldness of their voices,
08:02there is also dancing.

12:13EJ Gomez for GMA Integrated News.
12:18Let's go back to Veronica Torres,
12:20weather specialist in Pagasa.
12:22Ms. Veronica, good morning.
12:24Good morning also, sir Andrew,
12:26and good morning to all of our viewers.
12:28First question, Ms. Veronica,
12:30will it rain today here in Metro Manila?
12:32And where will we experience the rain?
12:36Yes.
12:37Today, we expect that the weather in Metro Manila will be good.
12:42And then the areas that we see will be rainy,
12:45like ITCZ in Mindanao and Palawan,
12:48Northeast Monsun will be rainy in Cagayan Valley
12:50and Cordillera Administrative Region.
12:52And then the rest of the country,
12:54for the time being,
12:55in Ilocos Region,
12:56there will only be light rain.
12:57And in Metro Manila and the rest of the country,
12:59there are still chances of localized thunderstorms.
13:03The new year is just around the corner.
13:05Will the shoreline return, Ms. Veronica?
13:08Yes.
13:09The new year is just around the corner.
13:11So, we expect by...
13:13Although now,
13:14the shoreline has no effect on our part of the country,
13:17but by tomorrow,
13:18it's not ruled out if the shoreline will return.
13:21And then,
13:22it's possible that it will rain mostly in the eastern section of our country.
13:26Ms. Veronica,
13:27are we expected to see a new typhoon
13:29that will possibly come this 2024?
13:32Yes.
13:33So, this 2024,
13:34the span is still quite long.
13:36We still have around 6 days before 2025.
13:40So, at least in the next 24 hours,
13:42there's a low chance of a typhoon coming in
13:45or forming in the PAR.
13:47But it's still not ruled out if there will be LPAs.
13:51Thank you very much.
13:52And Merry Christmas, Ms. Veronica Torres,
13:54weather specialist from Pagasa.
13:56Take care.
13:57Thank you. Merry Christmas, too.

16:26for fruits and vegetables.
16:28The new year is just around the corner.
16:30Live from Binondo,
16:31we have first news
16:32from James Agustin.
16:33James?
16:38Susan, good morning.
16:39Today, the prices
16:40of fruits and vegetables
16:41are still the same
16:43here in Divisoria,
16:45Binondo, Manila
16:47compared to
16:48before Christmas.
16:49But the vendors here
16:50are hoping that
16:51the prices will go up
16:53from tomorrow
16:54until the evening
16:55of the new year.
16:59Jennifer is just now
17:00checking the prices
17:01of fruits and vegetables
17:02in Binondo, Manila
17:03for the new year.
17:05We also buy, sir.
17:06It depends on the budget.
17:09What do you believe
17:10in the fruits and vegetables?
17:12It's okay, sir.
17:13It's for good luck.
17:1512 fruits
17:16are usually completed
17:17by Filipinos
17:18that are believed
17:19to bring good luck.
17:20For example,
17:213 for 100 pesos
17:22of persimmon,
17:23Fuji apple,
17:24orange,
17:25pears,
17:26and kiwi.
17:273 for 50 pesos
17:28of lemon.
17:29250 pesos per kilo
17:30of seedless grapes.
17:32300 pesos per kilo
17:33of green and black grapes.
17:36We also have longan
17:37and suha
17:38for 200 pesos per kilo.
17:40Longan
17:41can be bought

17:44That's 8 pieces.
17:45Blueberries
17:46are 250 pesos per pack
17:48with 125 grams of meat.
17:50For now,
17:51the prices haven't gone up yet.
17:53But Sipayan is expecting
17:54that especially
17:55on the eve
17:56of the new year.
17:57Before Christmas,
17:58the prices went up
17:59but per box
18:00it was only 50 pesos.
18:01It's not like
18:02when it's New Year,
18:04until December 27,
18:07the prices go up
18:08every night
18:09for the New Year.
18:10But what about those
18:11who want a tight budget
18:12but want to be able
18:13to complete
18:1412 fruits?
18:15If you give me,
18:16for example,
18:17if you need one piece,
18:18it's okay,
18:19but how much is it?
18:20We'll just compute it
18:21so that they can buy
18:22for mass.
18:29For now, Susan,
18:30aside from here
18:31in Santa Elena Street

20:17Harvey Santos.
20:18She was born in Cavite
20:19and made her name
20:20in Europe.
20:21In fact,
20:22the queen of
20:23the United Kingdom
20:24visited her
20:25hat exhibit
20:26some years back.
20:27The late
20:28Queen Elizabeth II.
20:29That was a very
20:30special moment.
20:31She has
20:32this great
20:33command of
20:34the room.
20:35She's got
20:36a very good
20:37sense of humor.
20:38She even made
20:39a joke.
20:40I was telling her,
20:41I used to be a
20:42ballet dancer
20:43and she replied,
20:44that must have
20:45been a leap.
20:46The cast of
20:47Wicked is big
20:48so Harvey
20:49can't count
20:50how many
20:51hats they made.
20:52But she remembers
20:53the excitement
20:54and joy
20:55of finally
20:56seeing these
20:57on the giant
20:58screen.
20:59The very first
21:00time,
21:01the entire
21:02team
21:03was asked
21:04to do,
21:05was asked
21:06to see
21:07a private
21:08screening
21:09before it
21:10went out.
21:11And it was
21:12insane.
21:13We were there,
21:14we were crying.
21:15Not just
21:16of the story,
21:17but sheer
21:18proud.
21:19Because it's
21:20like having
21:21a baby.
21:22It's like,
21:23oh,
21:24it's mine.
21:25Oh, it's mine.
21:26Oh,
21:27isn't that yours?
21:28We were
21:29nudging each
21:30other.
21:31It's so
21:32humbling.
21:33We feel
21:34really,
21:35really proud.
21:36Sinamay and
21:37Buntal are
21:38just a few
21:39of the local
21:40materials that
21:41Harvey uses
21:42in his creations
21:43in London.
21:44And I still
21:45have yet to
21:46make the
21:47perfect
21:48salakot

21:50I am so
21:51curious.
21:52I want to
21:53see that in
21:54the future,
21:55Harvey.
21:56We need to
21:57update the
21:58salakot,
21:59because
22:00I want to
