00:008 days left for the 2025 elections.
00:12Comelec said that the President has already signed the law
00:15to exclude parliamentary elections
00:18in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region and Muslim Mindanao or BARMM.
00:21The Commission will also investigate incidents of humanoid vote-buying.
00:28This is Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:33Comelec is now investigating the incident of humanoid vote-buying
00:37including the donation of aid to the Balingas Agbisamis Oriental
00:41while the portrait of three local aspirants was confiscated.
00:44This is also the report of humanoid vote-buying in Apayaw.
00:48In Baguio City, the Commission is verifying the donation
00:53of P100 from a party-lead organization
00:56including the membership ID.
00:58The complaint was filed against Ponte Vedran Negros Occidental.
01:03If there's a complaint, it's better.
01:04If there's none, we will help establish it.
01:08If there's enough evidence, we will sample it in 2023.
01:12There are a lot of people who were not allowed to sit even though they won.
01:15We have governors who were disqualified in 2022.
01:21While they're seated, we will sample them.
01:24Comelec and some of their telcos and partners also signed a contract
01:29for a quick transmission of the results of the vote.
01:32According to Comelec, it will start at 7 p.m.
01:35At 8.30 p.m., the results will be announced if no one will experience the aberration.
01:40We estimate that everyone will be able to transmit
01:44using the technology that our telcos have,
01:47including Starlink, until 8.30 p.m.
01:51Everyone.
01:53It's just for fun, but it's unofficial.
01:55Partial, but unofficial.
01:57And it means that if it's transmitted by Ms. Sandra,
02:02the watchers and lawyers will know immediately
02:06what they're expecting to transmit
02:09because they already have a copy of the election returns.
02:12Joint Venture will also be led in the transmission.
02:16Coming from one machine will only take a minute to transmit.
02:22So if all of these SIMs that we engaged or we got from our providers
02:28would transmit as expected,
02:32then in a few minutes,
02:35all results will be in the servers, in the data centers,
02:39where our servers are.
02:41Comelec also agreed with several large mall companies.
02:44They will put 42 branches of voting precincts
02:48so that the number of precincts in the schools will increase.
02:53Dr. Willie Ong has also formally withdrawn from the senatorial race
02:57through the introduction of his house in Comelec.
03:00He is curing cancer.
03:03In connection with the parliamentary elections
03:05in the Moro Autonomous Region in Maslim, Mindanao,
03:08Garcia said that the President has already signed the law
03:11for its postponement.
03:13He also showed the signed copy of the Republic Act 12123.
03:17In your knowledge, I was informed by Malacanang earlier
03:21that the President already signed the bill
03:24postponing the Bangsamoro parliamentary elections
03:27from May to October 13.
03:30We are still waiting for Palacio's reaction about this.
03:33But Garcia said that they will prepare this as they wish
03:36in spite of the short time.
03:39For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo is your witness.
03:44The new Transportation Secretary, Vince Dizon,
03:48is suspending the cashless toll collection
03:50that was supposed to be implemented
03:51on expressways starting March 15.
03:54Dizon said that the system must be well-organized
03:57and that it should not be biased.
03:59Dizon also called the removal of cash lanes as anti-poor.
04:04Not everyone can put a lot of importance
04:08in their RFID.
04:11Tomato farmers in Nueva Ecija
04:14are facing a huge price drop.
04:17The price per kilo dropped from Php 4 to Php 5.
04:21Witness, Mackie Pulido.
04:26From Php 320 per kilo last month,
04:29the price dropped to Php 40 per kilo of tomatoes.
04:33So from the cheap use of tomatoes in cooking,
04:36now, you can put a lot of tomatoes.
04:38Just one tomato in every dish.
04:43If tomatoes are expensive,
04:45because Php 20 per tomato,
04:47what's that?
04:48If this is a favorite price for those who will buy,
04:51it will be a loss for the farmers.
04:53Php 4 per kilo was sold yesterday
04:56when Frederick Miguel of Nueva Ecija
04:57was going to plant.
04:58Php 9,680 was sold in total.
05:02The payment for the tomatoes
05:03and the truck that brought the product
05:06will be reduced.
05:08It's still under Php 600.
05:11The price dropped because
05:12there are a lot of tomato farmers
05:14just like last month.
05:15It's a favor for us.
05:16If that's the case,
05:17the price will really drop.
05:19It's just right.
05:20Php 5 per kilo was sold
05:22by Raymundo, a tomato farmer.
05:25It's far from Php 15 per kilo
05:28for Sana Kumita.
05:29I hope the government can do something
05:33to remedy this.
05:35We, like the farmers,
05:37are not that slow.
05:38This problem has been going on for years
05:40and it's reaching a point
05:41where the tomatoes are just thrown
05:43on the side of the road.
05:45According to Grupong Sinag,
05:46if there is a maximum suggested retail price,
05:48I hope there is also a floor price
05:50or the lowest price
05:51that the tomatoes can buy.
05:53We can see that the price of tomatoes is low.
05:56Everyone is happy and we're okay with that.
05:58But the part of our producers,
06:03at least, I hope the harvest can be repaid.
06:06We are asking for a statement
06:08from the Department of Agriculture.
06:10For GMA Integrated News,
06:12Mackie Pulido is your witness.
