00:00Arrested a man after he fired a gun at a police officer in Caloocan.

00:21The man was injured in his right foot.

00:23The arrested man admitted that he was not licensed to carry a gun.

00:26He also admitted that he fired a gun.

00:28This is the story of Bea Pinlac.

00:33Just an hour after the beginning of the new year,

00:36a strange explosion hit the residents of Barangay 150 in Caloocan.

00:42The CCTV footage shows that there was a commotion on the street when a gun was fired.

00:47This man was standing near his motorcycle.

00:50Suddenly, he ran to the back of the taxi and pulled the gun.

00:54The sound of the gunshot was heard one after the other.

01:00Later, the man who fired a gun at an intelligence operative of Caloocan Police was seen with a bruised foot.

01:09A police officer identified the victim.

01:13He told the police that he wanted to stab and kill the suspect.

01:24When the police confronted the suspect...

01:27When the police approached, the police immediately shot him.

01:33The suspect was shot in the right foot.

01:37But according to the police, the man was still able to run to hide.

01:41When we followed the blood trailings in the area, he entered a house.

01:46After that, we saw his gun and a grenade in the crime scene.

01:55The gun was loaded with bullets and the grenade was armed and confiscated from the suspect, according to the police.

02:01But the suspect insisted...

02:03When I got out of the motorcycle, there was a man whose gun was out and pointed at me.

02:10When I saw him, I ran away. I didn't shoot him.

02:13But I didn't shoot him even once.

02:17The suspect admitted that his gun was not licensed.

02:21The gun was real, but the grenade was fake.

02:24According to the police, the suspect was previously imprisoned in the murder case.

02:28We have information reports that this certain person or our suspect is involved in gun running, gun for hire,

02:36and at the same time in the sale of illegal drugs.

02:39The motive of the suspect is still unknown.

02:42He is facing charges of attempted murder, illegal possession of firearms, and illegal possession of explosives.

02:48Bea Pinlac reports for GMA Integrated News.

02:53A man was found dead on the spot after he was shot in Pasay.

02:57Based on the investigation, the man, 37 years old, was suddenly approached and shot by a gunman.

03:03He was just leaving his house yesterday afternoon.

03:05His gun was out and pointed at him until now.

03:08The motive of the crime is still unknown.

03:10The body of the man was found under an autopsy.

03:16The latest number of victims of gunshot wounds in the country has exceeded 300 in the recent year.

03:23According to the Department of Health, 141 were added as of 6 a.m. on the first day of 2025.

03:32The total number is now 304.

03:35It is less compared to the same time in 2024.

03:38But according to the DOH, it is possible that there are those who were not included in the report yesterday.

03:43The number of gunshot wounds will still increase.

03:49The number of gunshot wounds in the country has increased to 27 in the year 2025,

03:56according to the Philippine National Police, as of 6 a.m. yesterday.

04:01There were also three gunshot wounds and Luna was admitted to the hospital.

04:07Twenty-one were arrested, the most in Calabarzon.

04:11Three were arrested in Metro Manila and Western Visayas.

04:16Two in Northern Mindanao.

04:18One in Central Luzon, Central Visayas, Eastern Visayas, and Zamboanga Peninsula.

04:23There were also 17 gunshot wounds.

04:29The majority of our countrymen have returned to work.

04:31That's why some of them have already left early.

04:34This is the news brought to you by James Agustin and Bam Alegre.

04:38It's still early, but the line is already a blockbuster.

04:41It will enter Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange.

04:44In the bag check, the line is already very long.

04:46Many have already returned to reality on the second day of 2025.

04:50Like Marvin Lopez with his mother.

04:52They had a holiday in Cavite, but now they need to go back to base in Cabanatuan Nueva Ecija

04:57because their work is already waiting.

04:59I just wandered around here, around Metro.

05:02I was with my mother and my siblings.

05:05Emily Marilia left Metro Manila to celebrate Christmas and New Year here with her children.

05:11She knows that many are returning home at the same time.

05:13That's why she decided to go to the terminal.

05:15They don't want to go back to San Narciso, Quezon yet.

05:18But her grandchildren still have to go to school.

05:20We want to go back early.

05:23We don't have many passengers.

05:24But we are together with our children.

05:27According to the PITX, there are enough buses that will serve the passengers.

05:32It's already past 4 in the morning.

05:34There are many passengers on this side of Commonwealth Avenue in the LITEX area.

05:38Our countrymen are back to work today.

05:41But are they ready to return home after the long holiday?

05:44We are ready. We need to.

05:46I'm so tired.

05:50I need to rest.

05:52My leave is over.

05:53I'm tired because we only had a short vacation from work.

05:58I'm tired because we only had a short vacation from work.

06:01I'm tired because we only had a short vacation from work.

06:04Some seem to have a holiday hangover.

06:06But they still woke up early to go to work.

06:10Just like Roseanna, she's going home to Indang Cavite after spending her vacation with her relatives here in Quezon City.

06:16It's hard to fill up the bus because some are returning to their places.

06:22Rodrigo is still working.

06:25He's used to driving for the public.

06:28Sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's easy.

06:30Especially when it's a holiday.

06:33SP is also waiting for the bus to go to North Avenue.

06:38It's hard to drive because there are so many people.

06:41It's the first day of the new year.

06:43It's the first day of the new year.

06:45You know the traffic. You need to go early.

06:47The first day of work feels like a new year.

06:50Some passengers are just running around.

06:53The buses are already full.

06:56On the other hand, being on time is one of the goals of the passengers we talked to this year.

07:03I don't want to be late. I avoid being late.

07:06You need to go to work early to be on time.

07:10We can't be late.

07:12James Agustin.

07:13Bam Alegre.

07:14Reporting for GMA Integrated News.

07:18The buses are going to the Grand Terminal in Lipa, Batangas to go to Metro Manila.

07:22But the passengers are tired and hot.

07:25Because there are only a few passengers on the first day of the new year.

07:29Others have been waiting for the bus for two hours.

07:33A dispatcher explained that there are not enough drivers and conductors.

07:36Because it's the new year and they are with their families.

07:39They promised to return the normal schedule of the passengers on the bus today.

07:45FIVOX will continue to report on the magnetic unrest of Volcano Canlaon in Negros Island.

07:51Local authorities are preparing for the worst-case scenario.

07:58It is possible that there will be a stronger eruption.

08:01According to FIVOX, the volcano Abo erupted seven times in the past 24 hours.

08:07There were also 26 volcanic earthquakes.

08:12More than 3,000 tons of ash were deposited.

08:16The volcano is currently still at Alert Level 3.

08:20The government is recommending evacuation of those living within a 6-kilometer radius of Mount Canlaon.

08:31Some parts of the country predicted that after 2025,

08:35like Bontoc Mountain Province, it will experience a one-hour rainfall.

08:39According to FIVOX, this is due to drought.

08:42Today, there is still a chance of rain in Mountain Province and some parts of Northern Luzon due to drought.

08:48Sheer line is causing rain in Cagayan, Isabela, Quirino, and some parts of Luzon, including Metro Manila.

08:55Intertropical Convergence Zone is also causing rain in Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao.

09:01Preparations must be made for severe rain in Cagayan, Isabela, Apayau, Aurora, Quezon, and Camarines Norte.

09:10Residents are being alerted to flood or landslide.

09:14Based on the rainfall forecast of Metro Weather,

09:16the entire country will experience rain in the next few hours.

09:19Heavy to intense rain is possible in some areas.

09:22In the middle of the rain, Angbinga Reservoir in Benguet is losing water.

09:28In the past 24 hours, a dam was opened according to the forecast.

09:33The water level in Angat, Magat, Lamesa, Ambuklao, and Caliraya Reservoirs is still high.

09:40While the water level in Ipo, Sandroque, and Pantamangan Reservoirs is still low.

09:46A family in Santa Maria, Bulacan is calling for justice in welcoming the new year.

09:51Their 11-year-old son died after his car was hit and run.

09:57This is the latest incident in the breaking news of Jamie Santos.

10:04That young man was crossing when he was hit by a red car.

10:08Some residents were killed.

10:11But the driver of the car did not stop and did not help the victim.

10:16This happened at 7 p.m. on December 28 in Celeste, Guyong, Santa Maria, Bulacan.

10:23The victim is 11-year-old JV.

10:26When I saw my brother, I immediately went to the hospital.

10:31I did not wait for an ambulance.

10:33Two days later, the child came back to life.

10:37His mother did not leave JV's side.

10:41It just hurts us.

10:43That's how it is. We are just together.

10:46Then, in a blink of an eye, he disappeared.

10:53I cannot accept this, especially that it's a new year.

10:58I don't know if our new year will be happy because we lost a brother.

11:02As of now, the driver is still not found.

11:06According to the victim's brother, the broken mirror of the car where the RFID sticker was attached was left in the area.

11:13The family of the victim was also able to get CCTV footage when they left the red car and went to the direction of the town of Santa Maria.

11:21The CCTV footage was given by the owner of the CCTV to the family of the victim to help in the investigation.

11:29The police also saw it.

11:31But the Santa Maria, Bulacan Police Station refused to give a statement.

11:35Their investigation is still ongoing to find the driver of the car.

11:41They are still in contact with the owner of the NX and may be able to help in finding the driver of the broken mirror of the car with the RFID sticker.

11:51They are also backtracking the CCTV footage in the area.

11:55The family's only wish is for justice to be served for their son.

12:00We are praying for justice to be served for my brother.

12:04We are praying for him to give up because we feel that it's painful.

12:10We are praying for him to give up.

12:14Please help us because it's hard to say that it was an accident.

12:21We hope that you didn't run away.

14:30According to witnesses, 44-year-old man dropped his five-star coins in front of his house in Dagupan City.

14:40It was an improvised bomb-shell made by a man.

14:42When a five-star coin did not explode, he took a look at it.

14:45We saw the man was about to explode.

14:48We thought he slipped.

14:50We thought he was hit by something.

14:52He took a look at it.

14:53When it hit him, it exploded.

14:56We did not know that it exploded right away.

14:58He was rushed to the hospital but he is currently at home.

15:01He was hit by a lot of five-star coins.

15:04That's what caused his lacerated wound in his occipital area.

17:09At the end of 2025, not only will the years change,

17:13we also have a chance to leave our past and embrace our new and improved version.

17:21Some superstars are making their own assessments of what they will leave in 2024.

17:27My past love. Let's make a new version.

17:31Time is gold for Ashley Sarmiento's love team, Marco Masa.

17:37That's why he values his time to be productive.

17:42Procrastinating.

17:44Because sometimes, there are times when it's really boring to move around.

17:49This year, I really plan to do a lot, to do more.

17:52The princess of City J's love team, Sofia Pablo and Alian Ansay,

17:58spilled what each of them should change for the new year.

18:03She should leave the...

18:05It can be late, even 10 minutes.

18:09Not eating vegetables.

18:11You promised that last year.

18:13For First Lady of Prime Time, Sania Lopez and Sparkle Star, Isabel Ortega,

18:19health is wealth.

18:20That's why they have things to change this year.

18:24Eating more.

18:27Eating more.

18:28Because I eat a lot.

18:30Other than sleeping late, I eat a lot.

18:33Maybe it becomes a hobby when you don't do much.

18:37Stop sleeping late.

18:40You can't put on weight now.

18:42Even though we plan to change ourselves a lot for the new year,

18:48it's important that each of us in our plan

18:51is to make ourselves and others better.

18:55And to include our future in 2025,

18:58which is full of hope, courage, and trust.

19:02That the best is yet to come.

19:05Nelson Canlas reporting for GMA Integrated News.

19:09The family of an OFW in Kuwait is calling for justice.

19:13A dead and missing woman was found in the backyard of her employer's house.

19:18Here is my report.

19:22The brother of the OFW who was killed in Kuwait, Maluha, was not stopped

19:26after confirming that the missing woman, Daphne Nakalabanan,

19:29was found in the backyard of her employer's house.

19:32It's embarrassing, especially since Daphne is already home in the Philippines.

19:35We asked her when she will go home.

19:38She said, as long as I surprise you in December,

19:41this will be her surprise.

19:44The last time they talked was in May 2024.

19:46She did not mention any problem with the brother.

19:49The wife was missing for two months before her employer's brother reported her missing.

19:53Did you feel that the incident was hidden from you?

19:57Yes, we planned to hide it.

20:00We just asked that our brother go home

20:04so that we can give justice to what really happened to him.

20:11Why did they do that to him?

20:14The brother of the suspect, the police,

20:17investigated the police and the police found the body at home.

20:21Advanced state of decomposition for two months.

20:24The suspect is in prison with a criminal record

20:26based on the information received by the DFA.

20:29We assure the public that the government will do all it can to seek justice.

20:34It's sad that this happened at the end of the year.

20:36Raffy Tima is reporting for GMA Integrated News.

20:41The OFW in Kuwait has been missing for two months.

20:45Let's talk to the Department of Migrant Workers Secretary Hans Leo Kakdak.

20:49Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.

20:52Good morning to you, sir Raffy and to all the listeners.

20:56How was the DMW able to confirm the disappearance of an OFW in Kuwait?

21:00And what was the reason for his death?

21:03We are in coordination with our embassy in Kuwait

21:07and we informed the Kuwaiti police authorities

21:13that on December 28,

21:15someone presented to the Kuwaiti police authorities

21:19and said that he had information about the disappearance of our countryman.

21:24Since then, our lawyer, together with our embassy and our migrant workers office in Kuwait,

21:33coordinated with the Kuwaiti authorities.

21:36We also learned that under custody by police authorities,

21:40the prime suspect was the one who presented information to the police on December 28.

21:47Since then, we have coordination with the police authorities

21:52and we are waiting for the results of the investigation.

21:57We are hoping that justice will be given, prosecution,

22:02and we will investigate the prime suspect who is currently in custody.

22:06We have also communicated with the family.

22:09The one who presented information is the brother,

22:12but we have communicated with the family of the OFW, the husband.

22:19There is a minor child involved.

22:21That's why we are also careful to expose the identity of the OFW,

22:27Piesto Oficial, yesterday.

22:29We don't want the media to spread the family,

22:32especially the minor child, during the time of Piesto Oficial,

22:37during these kinds of times.

22:39Is there a motive for the murder of the victim?

22:42He was missing for two months, but the suspect's own brother reported it.

22:48This is just a part of the investigation of the Kuwaiti authorities.

22:54This much we know.

22:55The OFW arrived in Kuwait on December 2019

23:00and he served more than one employer.

23:06His original employer in 2019 was not the employer who reported her as missing

23:14or as having absconded,

23:16absconded meaning terminating his employment contract on October 16, 2024.

23:24This is the public record that his employer reported on October 16, 2024,

23:32his termination or absconding.

23:35We talked to the husband,

23:39he also said that October was the last communication with them.

23:42They thought that their beloved OFW was just busy

23:48until she received the news of her absconding.

23:52Is there a report that the OFW is complaining

23:56either to her husband or to the Kuwaiti embassy?

23:59Up to that point, we did not receive any report.

24:02Up to the five years that she was there, before she passed away,

24:07we did not receive any report either from her or from the employer.

24:12We also did not, in our effort to find out the situation of OFWs in Kuwait,

24:22we did not receive any report about her.

24:25The prime suspect, Sir Rafi, we are still trying to find out if he's the employer.

24:31The prime suspect is not necessarily the employer at this stage.

24:36That's another thing that we're trying to find out.

24:39His last employer on record precisely reported his termination of his employment.

24:47Abscond is the other term that is being used.

24:51That means he did not terminate his contract with the employer as of October 16, 2024.

24:58But his recruiter did not report where he moved.

25:01Shouldn't the OFWs have that kind of coordination?

25:05The recruitment agency has an obligation to report,

25:11but at some point, after a two-year period,

25:16the OFW reports himself or herself as a balikmanggagawa or returning worker.

36:52A new year, a new hope for change.

36:55That's why many are eager to make their own New Year's Resolution.

37:00But how can we resist those?

37:04This is the story of Vaughn Aquino.

37:09Precious's goal as a college graduate is to work by 2025.

37:13And within two years, his target is to save money.

37:17He's already making a budget for his salary.

37:21I will spend my 50 pesos at home.

37:26I will also give the bills and other expenses to my mom.

37:32The 30% is for my savings,

37:35and the 20% is for my own needs in life.

37:40His mother, Jocelyn,

37:42her goal is good health for the family.

37:44I will also be watchful of what I eat.

37:48Albert's goal is to start a business.

37:51You should really focus because sometimes there are things that

37:55if you don't focus on it, it seems to disappear.

38:00Rian will stop procrastinating

38:04so that she can remain an honor student.

38:06When I say that later,

38:09that's when I lose my motivation and I get lazy.

38:12According to a life coach,

38:15setting a goal is important for you to have a direction and focus on what you want to achieve.

38:21And to achieve that,

38:23you must be clear about what you want to happen.

38:26What is the outcome that we wanted to accomplish?

38:29Because if we have so many things at hand,

38:32that I want this, I wanted to do this, I wanted to do that,

38:34and you are not being clear on what you should focus on,

38:38then you will not be having a particular outcome.

38:41The goal should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound.

38:48Sometimes we set goals that are too difficult to accomplish,

38:53so we tend to pressure ourselves.

38:56Once your goal is set, it's good to write it down.

38:59When we think, this is my goal,

39:02we put it in our mind, sometimes we neglect it,

39:05so it's better to have a blueprint.

39:08You can have a certain creative visual so that it will be reminded that this is my goal.

39:14And once you start achieving your goal,

39:17make a routine, be consistent, and track your progress.

39:22Aside from setting goals and striving to achieve them,

39:26it is also important to be thankful for all the blessings and successes that you have experienced in life.

42:25Tina Panganiban Perez brought you the latest news.

42:30Mocamuse is the Pantone Color of the Year for 2025.

42:34You can make this as a motif of your house,

42:37whatever color it is now, without spending a lot.

42:42Get some true pillows, your accents.

42:47Keep it simple.

42:49You can put an accent wall so that the next time the color of the year changes,

42:54you don't need to do so much.

42:56You also don't need to change the furniture just to follow the trend.

43:00It's also a good thing if the base color of the house is neutral,

43:04like this condo unit of Cheng,

43:06that matches any color.

43:08That's why the base color of your home,

43:11it's always practical to make it neutral.

43:15Because if it's neutral, whatever color of the year, it's easy.

43:19You also don't need a wardrobe overhaul every time the color of the year changes.

43:24If you don't have a lot of budget,

43:26you can invest in bags and shoes first.

43:30If you have statement pieces like blazer, jacket, and coat,

43:35or other outfits that are in the color of the year,

43:38it's better to mix and match the color mousse in on-hand outfits.

43:45If you have a budget and you just want to overhaul your wardrobe,

43:48JM's advice is to go basic so that it's still classic and timeless.

43:54But you're still in trend for your everyday outfits.

44:00Just avoid it?

44:02Maybe neon colors are not allowed.
