00:00This is GMA Regional TV News.

00:07An arrested man in the barangay Tanod in Kalasyao, Pangasinan,

00:11that we reported yesterday.

00:13The suspect was arrested in Dagupan City following a hot pursuit operation by the police.

00:17He was also stabbed by a police officer.

00:20According to the police, it is possible that the criminal was involved in being a police asset of the victim.

00:25The suspect was arrested for his involvement in the crime.

00:32A minor was arrested who ran away in Davao City.

00:36The 16-year-old man who was being chased by a baby stroller actually ran away.

00:42The man ran away and hid in the neighborhood where he was arrested.

00:48According to the police, aside from the stroller, he also stole clothes.

00:52A helper was entering the man's area.

00:55He explained that the stroller is for his baby.

00:59The owner of the stroller will not file a complaint anymore.

01:03The man will be turned over by the police to Davao City Social Welfare and Development Office.

01:10An illegal mini-hospital of a foreigner was seen inside a condo unit in Paranaque.

01:18Where is it? Is it okay now?

01:21In the raid of CIDG, the target of the foreigner called Dr. Lee was arrested.

01:27Aside from operating an illegal hospital,

01:30he also sold drugs that were not registered in the Food and Drug Administration.

01:36Patients who were being treated also arrived and were in a dextrose.

01:41The condo unit also has a lead who is being used as an operating room.

01:46It is possible that the doctor and the assistant met in front of the complaint filed by the Food and Drug Administration Act and the Medical Act.

01:55While the two patients who arrived to be treated were taken directly to the hospital,

02:00according to CIDG, there is no statement that the foreigner was arrested.

02:06The oral arguments of the Supreme Court continued regarding the filing of PhilHealth

02:11of its P60 billion fund to the National Treasury.

02:14The Supreme Court's question to PhilHealth is,

02:16why did the fund return if there is a significant amount of benefits that has not yet been paid?

02:23The agency explained in the news brought by Mark Salazar.

02:30The Supreme Court submitted to the PhilHealth's approach to answer the question,

02:35why did it remit P60 billion to the National Government if there are still debts?

02:41Associate Justice Ami Lazaro Javier commented on this issue.

03:12In the 2021 financial statement of PhilHealth that was audited by COA,

03:17PhilHealth also paid P1.16 trillion to the beneficiaries,

03:22while its asset is only P347 billion.

03:26This means that PhilHealth's deficit is more than P816 billion.

03:32According to the adverse opinion of COA,

03:34PhilHealth did not follow the proper accounting standard and their deficit is more than that.

03:41Financial statements do not present fairly the financial position of PhilHealth.

03:47In short, the negative equity of PhilHealth may be way more than P816 billion.

03:55Even if you double up your assets, they're not enough to pay off your liabilities.

04:01The deficit gradually dropped to P26 billion in 2022, but it's still a deficit.

04:31for the claims, to pay the claims of the beneficiaries.

04:38And if there is an excess, then additional programs should be set up.

04:44And if there is still an excess, in the excess, then investment may be made.

04:53But PhilHealth said that they will not pay all the debts at the same time.

04:57This is the only way to collect the direct contribution of the members.

05:01Requirement of the law, your honor, particularly in section 11, reserve fund for a maximum of 2 years, your honor.

05:10Is the reserve funds just in paper? Are you not supposed to reserve real money?

05:17You cannot predict when people get sick.

05:21The government corporate council of PhilHealth also said that PhilHealth's deficit is not low because this is the government's answer.

05:28It is the state insurance company. It cannot be insolvent because by law,

05:34the government of the Philippines guarantees the financial viability of the program or the national health program administered by PhilHealth.

05:46Outside the Supreme Court, the petitioners asked why they are asking the government to return the P60 billion they got from PhilHealth.

05:56PhilHealth's deficit is not enough, so they returned it.

05:59The government abandoned its responsibility to give subsidies to indirect contributors, to the indigent.

06:10And now, they are asking the workers to contribute.

06:15It is clear that PhilHealth's fund is not enough for this reserve fund.

06:22It is not enough for us to say that as long as PhilHealth has a balancing fund, it is already an excess fund.

06:27Dr. Tony Leachon also filed a petition against the government and Congress for giving a zero budget to PhilHealth for 2025.

06:37The oral argument in the Supreme Court is still ongoing.

06:41Mark Salazar reporting for GMA Integrated News.

06:47Another recognition in the bag for Kapuso Primetime Queen, Marian Rivera.

06:53She is one of the awardees of People of the Year 2025 of Stargate People Asia Magazine.

07:00Gorgeous in green dress and short hair, Marian was happy to receive the recognition.

07:08Another award goes to Double Olympic Gold Medalist Carlos Yulo and some other personalities.

07:16I don't know what to say.

07:17Every award that is given to me, I really feel different.

07:21Of course, every time I receive this, I am really grateful.

07:25I am really grateful.

07:28The Philippine Youth and Family of Food Assistance will continue to receive from the United Nations World Food Program.

07:37UNWFP Regional Director for Asia and the Pacific, Samir Wanmali, and Philippine Ambassador, Neil Imperial.

07:46Despite the US President Donald Trump's suspension of their foreign aid,

07:52it is possible for them to be affected by the Global Humanitarian Programs.

07:56According to UNWFP, the UN can still get other funds.

08:01Aside from the top priority status in school meals and voucher programs,

08:05the organization will continue to support the emergency preparedness and response initiatives of the Philippines.

08:15At the gate of the Philippine National Police, an anti-kidnapping group, a Chinese national was shot.

08:22Let's go to the report on the spot of Jun Veneracion. Jun?

08:30Rafi, it is possible that a Chinese student was kidnapped from an exclusive school in Pogo.

08:38February 20, Rafi, the student was kidnapped when he left his school in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.

08:47Last night, he was rescued in Paranaque.

08:50According to the PNP, the victim's father used to be in the Pogo business,

08:54and it is possible that this is also called Chinese versus Chinese kidnapping.

08:59According to the PNP Anti-Kidnapping Group, from January 2024 until this month,

09:04there were 10 incidents of kidnapping where the Chinese were the victims,

09:10and those involved in the kidnapping were also Chinese.

09:15Aside from being involved in Pogo, the victim's father is a big-time e-seller of various merchandise.

09:22This is also included in the investigations of the PNP Anti-Kidnapping Group.

09:27According to PNP Acting Public Information Chief Colonel Randolph Tuanyo,

09:32the student was rescued yesterday after being abandoned by kidnappers in Paranaque City

09:37due to the pressure of police and military officers.

09:42The victim was rescued in a hospital for medical examination.

09:47Police were able to follow the kidnapper's group due to technical leads and human intelligence.

09:53There was no ransom paid.

09:55Police are still looking for those behind this kidnapping.

10:00That's all for the latest from Camp Kramer. Back to you, Rafi.

10:04Thank you very much, June Veneration.

10:07Both the Philippine Army and Philippine Navy claimed that there was no data breach

10:11after the cyberattacks on their online systems.

10:15According to their spokespersons,

10:17it was not hacking but illegal access that happened using a compromised account.

10:22Illegal access was prohibited and sensitive information was not compromised.

10:27According to AFP Public Affairs Chief Colonel Cerces Trinidad,

10:30most of the cyberattacks were made by those who announced the government's accomplishment or victory

10:35just like what happened to other agencies last year.

10:40This is GMA Regional TV News.

10:51There was a flash of a grass fire near a market in Lawagilocos Norte.

10:56It was only a short distance away that the grass fire started to spread.

11:00Firefighters responded quickly.

11:02They were worried because the fire spread quickly.

11:07According to the CDRRMC, it took two hours for the fire to spread.

11:12No one was injured or any animals were burned.

11:15The fire was still being investigated.

11:18If there is a tricycle in the Philippines, there are also three wheels that are popular in other countries.

11:23Vroom vroom, that's a tuk-tuk.

11:26For the go, those are in a race in Guna, Egypt.

11:37In the event, the race was not only fast.

11:4011 tuk-tuk were also racing in the get-up.

11:44Each tuk-tuk had its own design and decoration before joining the racetrack

11:49to make sure that it's riding in style.

11:52The winner was also the fastest tuk-tuk in the entire Middle East.

11:59The winning team received their tickets for a Grand Prix race this September.

12:05Wow!

12:07The tuk-tuk are so beautiful.

12:10The tuk-tuk are so beautiful.

12:12Did you ride one?

12:14In Egypt, there are also tuk-tuk.

12:17In Egypt and Africa, there are also tuk-tuk.

12:19And here in the Philippines, there are also tuk-tuk.

12:22But it's also made in India.

12:26I've ridden one in Thailand.

12:28Me too.

12:29And of course, it's a tricycle.

12:31Let's have fun.

12:32The tuk-tuk is cheap because it has a small engine.

12:35But it can carry a lot of people like tricycles.

12:38Here in the Philippines, it can carry up to seven people.

12:41It depends on how good the tricycle driver is.
