NewsTranscript
00:00A Philippine woman was found with cocaine worth more than Php 24 million.
00:08According to the Bureau of Immigration Anti-Terrorist Group,
00:11the woman came from Sierra Leone.
00:13She has a weak flight pattern,
00:16so she was recommended to be inspected by the NIA Drug Interdiction Task Group.
00:22There, the cocaine was found hidden in the lining of her handbags and suitcases.
00:28The suspect is facing drug trafficking charges.
00:33After the three impeachment complaints were verified by the House Secretary-General
00:38against Vice President Sara Duterte,
00:41the Secretary-General refused to act on the complaints.
00:46Tina Panganiban-Perez witnessed this.
00:52After the three impeachment complaints were verified by the Office of the Secretary-General of the Camera,
00:57the Secretary-General refused to act on the three impeachment complaints
01:01that were filed against Vice President Sara Duterte,
01:04and refused to act on the confidential funds.
01:07As soon as the complaint was filed,
01:10our legal department immediately investigated it.
01:15As of today, everything has been verified.
01:19All three can be transmitted.
01:21The Congress will return to session on Monday,
01:24where the impeachment complaints will be transmitted to the Office of the Speaker on Wednesday.
01:30The Congress will return to session on Monday,
01:35where the impeachment complaints will be transmitted to the Office of the Speaker on Wednesday.
01:42How will you respond to the impressions that you have of the impeachment complaints?
01:50The House of Representatives cannot act on it until there is a session, which is January 13.
02:04The House will not do anything if they are still on break.
02:10One way or another, I have to transmit the complaint or complaints to the Office of the Speaker.
02:18It's like negligence on my part if I will not act on these complaints.
02:26It was clarified by Velasco that there is no deadline in the Rules on Impeachment of the Camera
02:32to transmit the complaints to the Office of the Speaker.
02:36More than one complaint was filed against an impeachable official.
02:42Once the impeachment complaint is transmitted to the Office of the Speaker,
02:46the Speaker has 10 session days to include these in the Order of Business or the discussions in the plenary.
02:55The plenary has three session days to refer these to the House Committee on Justice.
03:01The committee has 60 session days to decide if the complaints are sufficient in form and substance.
03:09When the report of the committee comes to the plenary,
03:12it needs to be acted on within 60 session days.
03:15But counting the session days is not like counting the days in the calendar.
03:21The session days in the plenary are not an absolute number.
03:25There are days that Monday will convene and it will not be adjourned.
03:30It will be adjourned either Wednesday.
03:34Even if there are three session days, the number in the records is only one session day.
03:39That is why it is possible that the term of the current Congress has ended
03:43because the impeachment complaints have not yet been decided.
03:47That is why the endorser called for the first complaint.
03:50The impeachment complaint that we filed has already been mansari.
03:54One month is too long.
03:56One month without holding Sara accountable is giving a very bad example to other government officials,
04:07which is the abuse of power that should be punished.
04:11We are still trying to get the file of VP Sara,
04:15but she already said that she is ready to face and answer the allegations.
04:20For GMA Integrated News, Tina Panganiban Perez, your witness.
04:26The flash flood allowed some parts of Mindanao.
04:30Our witness.
04:33My water is heavy.
04:36Residents in Barangay Pamintingan in the town of Esperanza, in Sultan Cularat yesterday were shocked by the fast flood.
04:43The rivers overflowed along the road following the flood of the Sapa River
04:47due to the flood of water from the mountains.
04:54In the middle of August, some large rocks and trees were damaged.
04:58According to the uploader, water reached the houses.
05:01Many residents were stranded.
05:04It is also reported that more than 20 families were evacuated due to landslides, according to Esperanza MDRMO.
05:11Monitoring is ongoing in other barangays.
05:16The Sapa River also overflowed in Datu Abdul Asangki, Maguindanao del Sur.
05:20That's why the highway that connects Barangay Talisawa was submerged in water and mud, which made it difficult for motorists.
05:26There are also crops of rice and vegetables that were submerged in the water.
05:30It also flooded when the rain stopped last night.
05:36Even though the National Highway in Barangay Poblacion in Talisayan, Misamis Oriental, also overflowed due to the flood.
05:43According to the uploader, water reached some houses there yesterday.
05:47Some small vehicles were also swept away and a delivery truck also collided, according to Misamis Oriental PDRMO.
05:54The four villages experienced a flash flood due to heavy rainfall in the eastern part of the province.
06:16The water also overflowed a few hours later.
06:19The flood also flooded Barangay Talisay in Bato, Catanduanes.
06:23There was also a landslide, so the road in Barangay Bagumbayan was covered with mud, white sand and rocks.
06:29A big rock also collided with the main road in Bato-Virac border.
06:34According to the shearline, it rained in Bicol Region and localized thunderstorms in Mindanao.
06:40The storm will continue this weekend along with the storm in Amihan.
06:44According to Metro Weather, Bicol Region, Mimaropa, northern Luzon and Visayas, and almost the whole of Mindanao will still be flooded, especially in the afternoon.
06:54It will be almost the same in the week.
06:56There will also be floods in Central Luzon.
06:58The rainfall will continue, especially in Southern Luzon, along with Bicol Region.
07:03Be prepared for a flood or landslide.
07:06In Metro Manila, there is also a chance of rain in the afternoon or evening this weekend.
07:10For GMA Integrity News, I am Joseph Morong, your witness.
07:16The whole of Jesus Nazareno's translation was 20 hours and 45 minutes long this year.
07:24Before this, the procession was five times longer than the last two decades.
07:31Now, in 2025, the translation will reach more than 20 hours from its return after the COVID pandemic.
07:41If we compare the translations of 2024 and 2025, it will only be 3 o'clock in the afternoon of 2024,
07:50when Jesus Nazareno arrived at Plaza del Carmen for the traditional worship service.
07:57But now, in 2025, it will be 6 o'clock in the evening when the whole procession will arrive.
08:02Last night at 8 o'clock, the procession was still stopped at Gonzalo Puyat while the devotees were going up.
08:10Around 11 o'clock in the evening, the procession will still be in Hidalgo until it reaches Quezon Boulevard and Quezon Bridge.
08:18It has already returned to Quiapo Church. It will be early in the morning.
08:24More than 8 million devotees will attend the whole of Jesus Nazareno from January 2.
08:32The translation took more than 20 hours.
08:36Here are the reasons why the translation took longer this year in the testimony of Mackie Pulido.
08:43Every road that the whole of Jesus Nazareno passed through, it will be filled with devotees.
08:54From Quirino Grandstand, it took more than 20 hours to return to the Minor Basilica and National Shrine of Jesus Nazareno or Quiapo Church.
09:06It was early in the morning.
09:09Even though there were some obstacles, it was still carried out peacefully.
09:13More than 8 million people attended all activities from January 2 to 9, including the worship service.
09:20According to Quiapo Church, this is the highest number of devotees participating in the whole of Jesus Nazareno.
09:26It is estimated that around 4 million people attended the translation.
09:30That is why the slow procession this year, due to the large number and aggressive number of devotees, was carried out at the same time.
09:37It was a perfect weather yesterday.
09:40As you can see, the weather did not get hot.
09:44It was cool, but it did not rain.
09:47That is why people did not stop on the road, even though it was always sunny.
09:53Gloobid was also cut off twice because it got stuck in the wheel of traffic in the canton of Taft and Finance 3.
09:59Gloobid also went under when it reached Plaza del Carmen in St. Sebastian Church.
10:03We were not able to move because Gloobid went under again.
10:10We had to cut it because it was stuck under.
10:13We cut it from above.
10:15That is why from Plaza del Carmen to Plaza Miranda, Gloobid was no longer there.
10:21Before Gloobid was cut off, we also learned that there were devotees who came here and took bribe.
10:27According to Z.P. de Guzman, it is hard to walk without Gloobid.
10:31That is why the police, who are also the daughters, were the ones who watched to speed up the process of the translation.
10:36We really intended to wear their tactical uniform to show the devotees that we want to speed up the translation of our message.
10:49When the police and the daughters switched to the road, the sea of people got wet.
10:53But the devotees went to the road.
10:56At Plaza Miranda, the police were waiting.
11:00At one point, a police officer and a devotee got into a fight.
11:06In the entire translation, it was noticed that even if it is prohibited, many people still went to the road.
11:12Although it is less compared to the past years.
11:15They are still studying if there is anything else that can be done to prevent this from happening.
11:19We are not saying that the road will change.
11:22We are just having enhancements, improvements, and renovations because we are learning every year.
11:29According to the NCRPO, the 2025 translation is still generally peaceful.
11:34According to the Department of Health, more than a hundred people were brought to the medical tents and more than 500 were taken to the hospitals.
11:41At the end of the translation, a pile of garbage was left on the streets of Quiapo.
11:46The garbage was piled up.
11:48Those who were selling here left before they opened their stalls.
11:52If you are God, you will be clean.
11:55If you are not God, you will be dirty.
11:59Where will you throw your food?
12:04This part of Plaza del Carmen, in front of St. Sebastian Church, where the robbery took place, was also almost piled up.
12:11More than a hundred trucks or almost 400 tons of garbage were carried in the 2025 translation, according to the Manila Department of Public Services.
12:21For GMA Integrated News, I am Mackie Pulido, your Saksi.
12:27The field was lit by Director Daryl Yap, who has not yet ordered the court to stop the release of promotional materials or teasers of his film The Rapist of Pepsi Paloma.
12:41This is in accordance with the petition of actor Vic Soto in court for the writ of habeas data.
12:47Among Soto's requests is to stop the distribution of personal and sensitive details about Soto, as well as the online release of promotional materials.
12:59In the court order issued, it was submitted by verified return of writ, Yap.
13:05Yap's lawyer said they will answer this on Wednesday and will fight for the right of the director to freedom of artistic expression.
13:14They also answered what Soto's field said that Yap did not consult them about the film.
13:21According to Yap's lawyer, they gave a copy of the script of Soto's film before releasing its teaser.
13:31The purpose was really for them to give comments on the script.
13:36Director Daryl did not follow up on that until finally all the scenes were shot.
13:42So it's not our fault anymore.
13:47The MMDA is preparing for the expected heavy traffic on Monday because of one of the national rallies for the peace of the Church Of Christ.
13:56Classes in all ages, in schools, and in government offices in Pasay and Manila are suspended.
14:03Face-to-face classes in public daycare to senior high school are suspended, as well as the alternative learning system in Quezon City.
14:13This is Joseph Moro.
14:18One million members of the Church Of Christ, or INC, are expected to attend the national rally for peace on Monday, January 13 at the Quilino Grandstand in Manila.
14:27The rally was held by the group following their announcement last December that they supported the position of President Bongbong Marcos,
14:34which is not in line with the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte.
14:39Three impeachment complaints were filed in the House of Representatives against Vice President Duterte.
14:45They said that this is not a political rally.
14:52So absolutely, any politician cannot join this rally.
14:57The MMDA helped the Church Of Christ when they said that their members will arrive in Metro Manila from the nearby provinces.
15:05According to the MMDA, the members of the Church Of Christ are expected to arrive here in Metro Manila on Sunday
15:12and the traffic will be expected until Monday night in the affected areas.
15:1715,000 vehicles will be brought to the Quilino Grandstand where they will gather.
15:24That is why the Church Of Christ asked to park more than 10 roads in Pasay and Manila.
15:29The MMDA allowed this to be done in Mel Lopez Boulevard, Espana, Rojas, and Macapagal Boulevard.
15:35That is why the MMDA is preparing for heavy traffic on Monday,
15:39which is possible to reach Manila and Welcome Rotonda on the boundary of Manila and Quezon City.
15:45We will allow the street parking.
15:48Only one lane.
15:50If the road is two lanes,
15:56one lane should be covered.
15:59The whole road cannot be covered.
16:03The streets around and near the Quilino Grandstand are closed,
16:07like Rojas Boulevard, P. Burgos, and Maria Orosa.
16:11Malacanang was suspended from entering the government
16:14and all schools in Manila and Pasay for this purpose.
16:18The MMDA's number coding was not suspended.
16:22Our countrymen can choose their walk,
16:29especially in the area of Manila and Pasay.
16:34The Church Of Christ also has a national rally in different provinces like Ilocosur,
16:38Albay, Iloilo, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, and Davao.
16:41Aside from the expected traffic,
16:43because of the INC Peace Rally on Monday,
16:45traffic will also be expected on Mindanao Avenue
16:48because starting on Sunday, January 12,
16:50some parts of Mindanao Avenue will be closed
16:53for the Tandang Soros Station of Metro Manila Subway.
16:57The traffic will pass through the extension of the road.
17:00That will last until 2028.
17:03As for March,
17:04it is expected that the rehabilitation of the southbound lane of EDSA will start this year
17:08to fix its drainage and asphalt.
17:11It is expected that by the end of the year, the project will be completed.
