00:03RECEIVING CALL OF DUTY
00:09The receiving call of duty this afternoon
00:12RECEIVING CALL OF DUTY
00:14We have a search warrant.
00:16You don't have a radio.
00:18You don't have a radio.
00:20You don't have a radio.
00:22No one will touch you.
00:25Suddenly,
00:26and without a sound,
00:28164 employees of the so-called call center
00:32were attacked by the authorities
00:34along with the receiving call of duty.
00:37Most of them are foreigners.
00:42Part of the 100-meter flood control
00:44or slope protection project in Arayat, Pampanga
00:46was built after continuous rain.
00:49This extension is part of the extensive flood mitigation project
00:53that is worth 91 million pesos.
00:57What?
00:58Goodbye, millionaires?
01:03Whatever complaints you may have,
01:05we will find a solution to every problem.
01:08This is your new job.
01:10We will not overlook mistakes.
01:12Here, there is no safety for the employees.
01:14And there is no hope for those behind.
01:17Above all,
01:18we will find a receiver.
01:20Good afternoon, I'm Emil Sumangy.
01:24On August 19,
01:25along with the receiver,
01:26the authorities targeted the rescue
01:28of more than 100 employees
01:31who were accused of trafficking and forced labor
01:35with a search warrant.
01:36They entered the office in Parañaque City,
01:38a call center,
01:39but it was a bogo.
01:42The Philippine National Police,
01:44Criminal Investigation and Investigation Group,
01:47Southern Police District Field Unit,
01:49or CIDG,
01:50SPDFU,
01:52human trafficking is taking place
01:55in a building in Parañaque City.
01:58So, after a month of investigation
02:01and study in the area,
02:03they are ready to enter.
02:05Is that a highway?
02:06Yes, it's a highway.
02:07We're almost there.
02:10On August 19, 2024,
02:12the search warrant for the
02:14Trafficking in Persons Act
02:16and Cybercrime Prevention Act
02:19was issued by CIDG, SPDFU.
02:22The PNP and AFB joined forces in the discussion.
02:25Can I get off at the same time?
02:29A few moments later,
02:30along with the receiver,
02:33the Philippine National Police
02:35and Armed Forces of the Philippines
02:37entered the building in Parañaque City.
02:40We have a search warrant.
02:43You don't have a radio.
02:44You don't have a radio!
02:50The operatives climbed up
02:52to the 7th floor of the building.
02:57And when they reached the 7th floor,
03:02more than 100 employees were arrested.
03:07Come here, come here, come here.
03:09No one will touch you.
03:11The man in the front desk of the office was arrested.
03:14He was the occupant
03:16or occupant of the building.
03:18We have a search warrant
03:19for violation of RA 9208
03:22as amended in relation to Section 6 RA 10175.
03:26Sorry, sorry, what did you do?
03:28He understood.
03:29Marikina City, RTC.
03:33According to the operatives,
03:35Love Scam is done by the employees
03:38who work here.
03:40This is a fake relationship.
03:42These are just on the computer.
03:45Our countrymen or other countries
03:47will take the inside
03:48until they promise
03:50that they will give something
03:52that will be sent to the receiver.
03:54But the employees are undocumented
03:56and they don't have any papers
03:58to work in the Philippines.
04:00That's why they are called victims
04:02of human trafficking.
04:04When we found out
04:05that there is a forced labor
04:08and they will get their passports,
04:11this is what their employer is investigating.
04:14In the middle of the crowd of foreigners
04:16a Filipino woman
04:18opened the door
04:20to the receiver.
04:22She is the call center
04:24in Parañaque City
04:25where the authorities
04:26and the receiver met.
04:28No one will touch you.
04:30After rescuing
04:31164 foreign nationals
04:34who were forced to leave
04:36through friendship
04:38or online relationship,
04:41the operatives started
04:43the gadgets and electronics
04:45that are used for love scam.
04:53Effective today,
04:55all POGOs are banned.
05:01I hereby instruct PAGCO
05:03to wind down
05:04and cease the operation of POGOs
05:06by the end of the year.
05:07When President Marcos was in office,
05:09he issued a total ban on POGOs.
05:14Is this considered
05:16a violation of his orders?
05:19Yes.
05:20We will continue our investigation
05:23and intelligence gathering
05:25so that we can carry out
05:26the instructions of our President.
05:28This is a violation of his orders
05:30to ban POGO hubs
05:31that became the center of abuse
05:33and pandering.
05:34No one will touch you.
05:37In the discussion of the authorities
05:39in the biggest POGO hub this year,
05:41the stories of torture,
05:44and human trafficking
05:45were shared by the public.
05:50The story of a Malaysian national
05:52who was rescued from
05:53Zunyuan Technology POGO Hub
05:55in Bambantarlak.
05:57They were punished
05:58whenever they failed
06:00to reach the quota
06:01that was assigned to them.
06:15In the operation of CIDG-SPD-FU
06:18in Amoy Pogo, Paranaque,
06:20together with Recibo,
06:21a Filipino was rescued
06:23who happened to work there
06:25not as a scammer
06:26but as a translator of the company.
06:29Ma'am, do you know that you are a POGO?
06:31Yes, I am aware, sir.
06:33I am aware, sir.
06:34The salary offer is a bit high.
06:37Even for a few months,
06:39we can do it
06:40because I am a POGO.
06:42Even for a few months,
06:43we can do it
06:44because I am a POGO.
06:46That's the only reason
06:47why we came here.
06:49She only did this
06:50for her family.
06:51She will only return
06:53to their province
06:54and there,
06:55she will look for a job.
06:56Of course, I am afraid.
06:58But we are aware, sir.
07:00The President said
07:01that's the only thing we are afraid of.
07:03Because I am a single mom,
07:04I don't know
07:05what to do now.
07:08According to the CIDG,
07:10even though they were not able
07:11to catch the mastermind
07:12behind the POGO in Paranaque,
07:14they assure that
07:15they will continue
07:16their investigation
07:17on this matter.
07:20We were arrested
07:21by an administrator
07:23on the floor of the building.
07:26Our subjects were not there.
07:28We caught one of them
07:30and we also arrested him.
07:33We also arrested him.
07:36The other bosses
07:38who were not there,
07:40the investigation is still ongoing.
07:42What case did you face?
07:44We arrested them
07:46for human trafficking
07:47in relation to
07:48RA-10175,
07:49cybercrime.
07:52After the administrator was arrested,
07:54more than 100 foreign nationals were rescued
07:56and the computers were confiscated
07:58as evidence.
08:00The suspect was brought
08:01to the Southern Police District Field Unit
08:02in Taguig
08:03for a temporary detention
08:05while the authorities
08:06will turn over
08:07the documents
08:08to the Bureau of Immigration
08:09for document verification.
08:11While the law was being enforced
08:13to close the POGOs,
08:14on August 21,
08:15the government confirmed
08:16that the dismissed mayor
08:17of Bambantarlac,
08:18Alice Guo,
08:19or Guo Ping,
08:20has already been released
08:21from the country.
08:23It was revealed that
08:24she had a major role
08:25in the POGO's
08:26invasion of her place.
08:27Who allowed this travesty
08:29to happen?
08:30For us to be sautéed
08:31in our own oil.
08:34This Thursday,
08:35the Indonesian Immigration
08:36was stopped
08:37by Alice Guo
08:38and Cassandra Ong
08:40who were being helped
08:42by the people
08:43behind the POGO hub
08:44The Lucky South 99
08:45in Borac, Pampanga.
08:47Just a few hours later,
08:48the two were returned
08:49to the Philippines.
08:51But until now,
08:52the officials still cannot
08:53determine
08:54how the former mayor
08:55was released
08:56from the country
08:57for the actions
08:59of the POGO operators
09:00like CIDG,
09:01SPD,
09:02FU.
09:03They will not stop
09:04until the POGOs
09:05are no longer victims.
09:07I have good news
09:09that I want you
09:10to come here
09:11to the people
09:12behind this operation.
09:13Please.
09:14We are continuously
09:15gathering information
09:17and surveillance
09:19to the operators
09:20of this illegal POGO.
09:22To our public,
09:23they can provide
09:25information
09:26even to their
09:27nearest police station
09:29or they can also
09:30go directly
09:31to CIDG's office.
09:40A part of the
09:41Slow Protection
09:42and Flood Control Project
09:43in Araya, Pampanga
09:44was given
09:45after less than
09:46a year
09:47and now
09:48the residents
09:49who live
09:50next to it
09:51cannot benefit
09:52from it
09:53because of
09:54a dangerous
09:55conspiracy.
09:56Who is the reason
09:57and who
09:58should be
09:59responsible
10:00for this perversion?
10:06The residents
10:07of Barangay Kabating
10:08in Araya, Pampanga
10:09did not fully believe
10:10that their house
10:11will be evacuated.
10:13This is how
10:14their place
10:15will look like.
10:17The land
10:18is almost
10:19covered
10:20with sand.
10:21That is what
10:22we are afraid of.
10:23Last Saturday,
10:24we were still safe
10:25but we don't know
10:26what will happen
10:27when it rains.
10:28I am worried
10:29because
10:30under that
10:31the water
10:32is leaking.
10:34The residents
10:35are worried
10:36about their safety.
10:37It is really
10:38dangerous.
10:39It is critical.
10:40Even if it is
10:41okay,
10:42it will still
10:43come down.
10:44At the moment,
10:45three families
10:46lost their homes
10:47because of
10:48the construction
10:49of the project
10:50that was
10:51known
10:52by Recibo,
10:53Grace Pangilinan.
10:54The land
10:55was covered
10:56with cement.
10:57Grace told us
10:58that they heard
10:59that the house
11:00was being given
11:01little by little
11:02on August 17,
11:032024.
11:04The land
11:05was being
11:06divided little by little.
11:07When we saw
11:08that there was nothing
11:09left,
11:10my house
11:11just collapsed.
11:12In our interview
11:13with the
11:14Barangay Kapating
11:15Captain,
11:16they were told
11:17how the
11:18construction
11:19started.
11:20What happened
11:21was that
11:22they saw
11:23that
11:24the water
11:25was circulating.
11:26It was like
11:27moving.
11:28This is my
11:29sit pile.
11:30Now,
11:31this is where
11:32the water
11:33circulated.
11:34It circulated
11:35for a long time.
11:36Within a year,
11:37the land
11:38was being
11:39taken little by little
11:40until the
11:41construction
11:42started.
11:43In the description
11:44billboard
11:45of the
11:46Department of
11:47Public Works
11:48and Highways
11:49of DPWH,

11:56of flood
11:57mitigation
11:58facilities
11:59in major
12:00river basins
12:01was completed
12:02100%.
12:03As of October
12:042023,
12:05this amounted
12:06to P91,626,654.28.
12:07In front of
12:08the
12:09reception,
12:10DPWH
12:11and Pampanga
12:12First District
12:13were told
12:14that the
12:15slope protection
12:16in Barangay
12:17Kapating
12:18was built
12:19to protect
12:20the residents
12:21from flooding.
12:22In the need
12:23of the barangay,
12:24like this,
12:25the residents
12:26and the
12:27residents here
12:28need to be
12:29protected.
12:30That is the
12:31sole purpose
12:32of our flood
12:33control
12:34projects here.
12:35The agency
12:36explained that
12:37the materials
12:38they used
12:39are good
12:40and durable.
12:41They do not
12:42expect a whirlpool
12:43to destroy
12:44their project.
12:45When there is
12:46a whirlpool,
12:47it has
12:48a circular shape.
12:49There are
12:50a lot
12:51of
12:52holes
12:53in the
12:54floor.
12:55I don't
12:56know what
12:57is under
12:58it.
12:59DPWH
13:00said that
13:01there was
13:02no earthquake
13:03but
13:04a settlement.
13:05We know
13:06that the
13:07floor
13:08softens
13:09when it
13:10gets wet.
13:11The
13:12materials
13:13we used
13:14like
13:15Tyre
13:16and Dead
13:17Man
13:18cannot
13:19be
13:20used
13:21for
13:22the
13:23project.
13:24The
13:25materials
13:26we used
13:27are
13:28sheet
13:29piles
13:30and
13:31rolled.
13:32Engineer
13:33Peña
13:34agreed
13:35with
13:36the
13:37materials
13:38used
13:39for the
13:40project.
13:41The
13:42sheet
13:43piles
13:44are
13:45at
13:46roll
13:47and
13:48the
13:49roll
13:50can
13:51be
13:52used
13:53for
13:54the
13:55flood
13:56way
13:57project.
13:58The
13:59question
14:00was,
14:01does
14:02the
14:03project
14:04have
14:05enough
14:06study
14:07material
14:08for
14:09the
14:10project?
14:11Engineer
14:12Peña
14:13said
14:14that
14:15the
14:16project
14:17The cost of the settlement, did we pay for it before?
14:21No, because the water we're doing is low.
14:24Because what we're doing, we didn't pay for it.
14:26According to an engineering expert,
14:29the study should have been more thorough before the project was laid.
14:34Engineer, it's called settlement, not payment.
14:37What can you say about this?
14:39Yes, settlement, we can call it settlement,
14:42is on the side of the households.
14:46Yes, we can see that it's going towards the side of the river.
14:52It's not the weight, but the force of the slope protection system that they're using.
14:59According to the contractor of the project,
15:01they didn't see the dense nature or the movement of the Pampanga River
15:06on the side of the project that we're talking about.
15:09Is that okay?
15:10In the first stages of design, you can also assume or predict the events like before.
15:20It should have been a different approach and different design.
15:24If this is the study, going through different types of examination,
15:28will that happen?
15:29I can say that there are shortcomings in engineering studies
15:35from the design phase up to the implementation.
15:39First of all, this project was planned to save the lives of our Filipinos.
15:47Second, a huge amount of money is coming from the people of the country
15:51that is being spent on this project.
15:56So the people of the country, the Filipinos should be the ones to monitor.
16:01According to the DPWH, the project is under warranty.
16:05The total amount of our project is P91,600,000.
16:10But under warranty, the contractor is willing to repair or any damages that we need to do here.
16:17And he will do it in his own expense.
16:20The company of Engineer Peña promised.
16:23We talked to the DPWH in District 1.
16:26We will still do it because it is under warranty.
16:28Restoration and completion of the damage to the project is our case.
16:33Residents are calling on the authorities.
16:36I hope that their work will be okay for our safety.
16:41I hope that our house will not move because this is where the children grew up.
16:48For Grace, she will not build a house near the scene of the incident.
16:53I don't think so.
16:54We will just look for a small piece of land.
16:58Because it's scary to build a house in a situation like this.
17:03They will also study if they need to fix the entire house or just the 30-meter house that was affected.
17:09With the help of our colleagues here in the barangay,
17:13we already had palliative measures,
17:15especially the sandbagging to protect the residents here,
17:19especially the affected portions.
17:21We will change the design.
17:24Because the seepage that we saw should come out.
17:27It should not be contained in the area.
17:30And our bank should not be saturated again.
17:33Actually, we are already sandbagging.
17:35We are just waiting for the design to be done.
17:39The people of this project came from Buis.
17:42That's why it's important to know that every cent was spent wisely
17:47and for the safety and well-being of the residents.
17:49Residents are with us.
17:51We hope that the receipt will fulfill the promises of the project.
17:57Ma'am and sir, we will monitor this.
18:01Ma'am!
18:03Oh my God! There's still more of them!
18:11We will be together with the Tiwali and Balukpot.
18:14We will reverse the wrongdoing and the corrupt mode.
