00:00We are here at the Esa Pico Power Monument to commemorate the 39th anniversary of the Esa Pico Power Revolution.
00:23The program will be held here for the anniversary that will start at 8am for the relaying activity, flag raising and later at 9am for the other activities for the Esa Pico Power Anniversary.

00:56There are also sweepers here to ensure that after the program, it will be clean here in this place.
01:06Of course, Mama Mary is also here as a symbol of the Esa Pico Power Revolution because during the prayer of Rosario, this revolution became peaceful.
01:16At this point, we will have Father Jerome Ceciliano, the rector of the Archdiocesan Shrine of Mary, Queen of Peace, to give us additional details regarding the program that will be held.
01:29Good morning to you, Father Jerome.
01:32Hi, Maris. Good morning to all the televiewers.
01:39First of all, Father, how important is it that we continue to pray?
01:43After 39 years of the Esa Pico Power Revolution, what is the significance of this during our time?
01:50The significance of the Esa Pico Power Revolution is that it shows the Filipino people all over the world that we can be united, fight for justice, stand up for what is right, fight for human rights, stop corruption.
02:12So, it is important for the new generation to see this so that we can be like them.
02:18We do not tolerate wrongdoings.
02:21Instead, we should stand up for justice and fight so that the wrongdoings that are happening to our society will be corrected.
02:33All right, Father. Earlier, we mentioned other activities that will be held like re-playing, flag-raising, and programs.
02:41What specifically are the activities that you will be doing from your end, or your group, Father?
02:48Here at the National Shrine of Our Lady Queen of Peace, what we will be doing now are liturgical, sacramental activities such as breaking the Holy Mass.
03:02Today, we also want to highlight the faith component of the 1986 People Power.
03:10We often see the re-playing, the participation of politicians, but what we want here at the National Shrine of Our Lady Queen of Peace is the faith component.
03:24The faith component means that during the revolution, according to Cardinal Jaime Sin, there was an intervention of the Holy Virgin.
03:34You also mentioned that, Maris, that it was very important for the contribution, participation, and intervention of the Holy Virgin
03:43so that we could have a peaceful and successful end to the revolution.
03:48Yesterday, we held mass here. We invited priests and bishops.
03:53And of course, we also invited the people to recognize the Holy Virgin, and of course, our faith, and our Church, which was also a part of the 1986 People Power.
04:10Father, very quickly, as you are also the spokesperson of the CBCP, Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines,
04:16do we have additional activities or messages to the Filipinos, especially now in the critical condition experienced by Pope Francis?
04:25Well, first of all, the Catholic Church is praying for Pope Francis.
04:33We are holding mass for his recovery.
04:38The dioceses or archdioceses throughout the Philippines, as well as around the world, are praying.
04:46And we hope that the Lord will continue to give strength and a high level of recovery to our Holy Father.
04:56That is our hope, and we believe that Pope Francis will continue his guidance to the entire Catholic Church,
05:07and above all, how he will continue to govern and manage our Church.
05:16All right. Thank you very much for your time and for the information you gave us.
05:20Father Jerome Ceciliano, Rector of Archdiocesan Shrine of Mary, Queen of Peace.
05:25Happy Anniversary to all of us.

08:10Igan, through the program, the Drivers and Conductors will be given, number one,
08:15the right habits, attitude, and knowledge so that the head won't get hot while on the road.

11:12The new Palace Press Officer, Undersecretary Claire Castro,
11:17leaked some of the words of former President Rodrigo Duterte about the impeachment of his son, Vice President Sara Duterte.
11:24Here is the first news with Ivan Mayrina.
11:30On the grounds of the Presidential Communications Office, President Bongbong Marcos clearly ordered Secretary Jay Ruiz
11:38to bring the government's programs to the people and will not use fake news, but will fight it.
11:44Many are spreading fake news now. We will fight it. We will have public information responsibilities.

12:37We cannot believe the fake news that was leaked by the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
12:44He admitted that he is just a fiscal expert in fabricating fake news.
12:52So what else can we expect from the former President Rodrigo Duterte?
12:56The other party wants power.
13:00This is what they want from the government and the President. They want power and authority.
13:08Castro responded to the former President Rodrigo Duterte about the sale of gold reserves to the country.

13:19According to the BSP, the sale of gold is just a regular activity.
13:26How? Why? To pump up the economy.
13:30Even at the time of the former President Duterte, it is already the work of the BSP.
13:37Doesn't he know that?
13:40In another statement, the Bank of Central Philippines said that it is buying and selling the BSP of gold as part of its core functions.
13:48If the BSP sells gold, the gold that was sold remains in the Gross International Reserves or GIR.
13:55There is no other purpose of the GIR, but to support the country's need for foreign currencies.
14:02This is the first news. Ivan Merina for GMA Integrated News.
