00:00Good morning. Here are the first news of GMI Integrated News.
00:18In January 2025, it is expected that the price of rice per kilo will drop by P5 according to the Department of Agriculture.
00:28If the price of rice is P52 now, it should be P48 by January.
00:33If the price of rice is P50 now, it should be P45 by January.
00:37According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiulaurel Jr.,
00:41this is because of the effect of Executive Order No. 62.
00:44According to the report, the price of imported rice will drop by 15% from the previous 35%.
00:50President Bongbong Marcos is positive that the price will continue to fall,
00:54especially since that's what's happening in their country, ASEAN.
00:58At the same time, the inflation rate is expected to drop this September from 3.3% in August,
01:04which is possible to drop to 2.5% this month.
01:07The government hopes that the inflation rate in the country will end in the year between 2% and 4%.
01:15After Vice President Sara Duterte did not return to the OVP's budget hearing,
01:20several congressmen said that they can request that the Vice President resign.
01:28They're asking her to resign.
01:30If she's not interested in her duties and functions as the Vice President, we can ask the Vice President to step down.
01:39Is that the sentiment of the entire House?
01:41Well, that's clearly a clear sentiment being shared by a lot of members.
02:12VP Duterte has yet to respond to that,
02:15but his office clarified that the congressmen did not wait for 17 hours.
02:21The budget sponsor, Surigao del Sur Representative Zia Adiong,
02:27announced the OVP's budget on September 16.
02:33The OVP will give the camera to VP Duterte for a chance to face the deliberation of the budget today.
02:48The LPU Pirates warmed up in the fourth quarter of their match against Mapuha Cardeo in Men's Basketball of NCAA Season 100.
02:57In the last quarter, the Pirates scored 31 points to win the match against the Cardinals.
03:02The final score was 96-81.
03:05This was their third consecutive win after losing in their first two games of the season.
03:11It was also a back-to-back win for the Perpetual Altas after defeating the San Sebastian Golden Stags
03:16who finished the game with a score of 60-52.
03:20Because of that, they are now the number two seed in the standings.
03:23Mga Kapuso, you can watch the games on GTV every Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday.
03:28Every Tuesday, Saturday, Wednesday, and Friday on Heart of Asia.
03:32It also has a live stream on the social media pages of NCAA Philippines and GMA Sports.
03:39The manufacturers of bread bought the bread at a price of up to Php 5.
03:44What is the reaction of the fans and voters about that?
03:49Let's find out in the first live news of Bang Alegre.
03:53Let's go!
03:57Susan, good morning.
03:58The favorite breakfast of many is bread.
04:00But how will you feel good when you wake up if the price of bread is possible to go up?
04:05That is the call of a group of bakers.
04:11To save Romulo Jailo, he only drinks hot water in the morning.
04:14Even if he doesn't have coffee, his bread won't go bad as a breakfast.
04:18That's why he's worried about the possible high price of some kinds of bread.
04:21I'm also sick. I don't have a job.
04:23That's why it's hard for me to buy bread.
04:26Phil Baking asked a group of bread manufacturers in the Department of Trade and Industry to raise the price.
04:32They explained that all the ingredients are now expensive.
04:35In Pinoy Tasty, from Php 40.50, it's now being raised to Php 45.50.
04:41In Pinoy Pandesal, from Php 25.00, it's now being raised to Php 30.00.
04:45Phil Baking is determined to lower the supply of bread because it needs to be spent for this.
04:50This is what Mark D. Solok, a baker in Divisoria, Manila, understands.
04:54The amount of flour and sugar is also high.
04:58And also the ingredients.
05:01If the price of some kinds of bread goes up, this is what Antonio Pereira, a butcher, understands.
05:08Of course, we won't be able to do anything.
05:10We don't have sugar.
05:12No, it's expensive.
05:14Electricity.
05:15What will they earn?
05:17You'll have to pay for a business permit.
05:19Right?
05:20You'll have to pay for a house.
05:22You'll have to pay for it.
05:23If it's not in Cebu, you'll lose a lot.
05:31Susan, according to the DTIA, they are studying Phil Baking's proposal.
05:35And they are considering the price of the ingredients as the basis.
05:39This is the first news from Manila, Bamalegre.
05:41For GMA Integrated News.
05:44The Senators have given the Executive Session requested by Dismissed Bamban Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo.
05:49And she said that she's ready to teach the most guilty in the illegal Pogo operations.
05:54This is Sandra Aguinaldo's report.
06:00In the Senate hearing regarding the illegal Pogo operations,
06:03Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo has something to say.
06:06Your Honor, I'm not a mastermind.
06:08I can say that I'm a victim.
06:11I think after a long investigation, the committee already knows,
06:16especially by our Madam Chairman, who's really at the back of everything.
06:22The Executive Session she requested has been approved again.
06:25Are you willing to say who's the most guilty?
06:29Yes, Your Honor.
06:31Guo said that she's in charge of her safety.
06:34That's why she's not allowed to mention her name.
06:37There's also a point where she wrote the name of the person who helped her escape,
06:42who was initially portrayed by some Senators as one of the leaders of the illegal Pogo activities in the country.
06:49The Executive Session went on for a few minutes,
06:52because the Senators still have a session.
06:55But Senator J.V. Ejercito said that there's something wrong with the brief discussion.
07:01It will continue next week.
07:03And Guo said that she will remember what happened.
07:06The relationship between Guo and Mayor Don Calugay, who used to be a police officer, was heard again.
07:15Calugay explained about her belongings,
07:19especially the Happy Penguin Resort,
07:21where it's possible that Guo hid before she escaped.
07:25Senator J.V. Ejercito's point was that she had a lot of belongings when she was a mayor.
07:31Calugay objected to this.
07:33The mayor also denied that she has bank accounts with hundreds of millions of pesos in it.
07:39Calugay signed a waiver to open her bank accounts.
07:44Senator Riza Ontiveros showed the picture where Calugay and former PNP chief Benjamin Acorda were together.
07:54We were shocked, Your Honor, because he was the former chief of police of Sual.
08:01Also in the picture was the sister of Alice, Wesley.
08:04She also wanted to see the highest position in the PNP.
08:09Why did she want to see the chief of PNP?
08:12Nothing. Just like that, Your Honor. I just joined.
08:15I have no idea. I just saw the picture.
08:18In another picture, Acorda was with Tony Yang,
08:22the brother of former presidential economic advisor Michael Yang,
08:26who is now in jail.
08:28Acorda was not convicted, but when he received the statement,
08:33his answer was that he loves the country and the PNP.
08:37What he did was what a Filipino should do as a police officer.
08:42Tony Yang said,
08:44We get to meet these officials especially when we need some help for the safety of our community.
08:52How long have you known the former chief of PNP?
08:58Because in this picture, it's an older picture.
09:04He was the regional director.
09:06Yes, when he was still in Cagayan as the director, we know each other.
09:11Yang is a Chinese national, but he also has a Philippine birth certificate.
09:16With the help of a translator,
09:19Yang told us that in 1998,
09:21he was the first to go to the Philippines when his grandfather started a business here.
09:26He did not know how to speak Tagalog or English.
09:30Where were you born?
09:31I was born in China, in Fujian.
09:36How do you spell that?
09:37Fujian, and that means in Fujian province.
09:40Place of birth, Misamis Oriental.
09:43And you just told us that you were born in Jinxiang, in Fujian province.
09:48So, a lie on the birth certificate,
09:51another proof that your birth certificate is irregular.
09:58My grandfather who helped me come up with this birth certificate,
10:01and I'm not sure maybe he did this for the convenience of the business here.
10:06Yang Jansin is his name in the Alien Certificate of Registration,
10:11but Antonio Maestrado Lim is his name in the Driver's License, TIN, and GAD Permit.
10:17Yang said that he has businesses in rice, steel, and wheels.
10:21No, not now.
10:22Right now, I don't have any related business with Pogo.
10:27Right now, how about before?
10:29Before, I had a transaction with a Pogo company for renting out a condo unit for them.
10:40The name that I had a transaction with is Tiosui.
10:43Senator Rizal Tiveros asked him about the Pogo Service Provider, Orun,
10:49where President Yang is listed.
10:54The reason why my name was in Orun is because during that time, I rented out the place to them.
10:59He was also hosted by the Philippine Sand Jet Steel.
11:02It's supposed to be a steel plant, but it looks like there are Pogo-like facilities inside.
11:10There are dorm-style facilities.
11:12There is a restricted area where we Filipinos are not allowed to enter.
11:17There is also a torturer.
11:19There is a thief.
11:21How many foreign nationals are in your facility?
11:26During their heyday, we were looking at around 2,000 Pogo workers,
11:32but now, ma'am, there are less than 300.
11:38I received an intel report.
11:40And of course, the documents that we saw, it all points to a Pogo operation.
11:46I asked him if he's close to former President Rodrigo Duterte.
11:52I am not very close with the former President Duterte and I don't have contact with him.
11:58How did you meet the former president?
12:00The former President Duterte, he went to Cagayan and we had a meeting with the Chinese business groups.
12:08And that's why we were able to meet him and we had a photo with him.
12:12This is the first news.
12:14Sandra Aguinaldo for GMA Integrated News.
12:18Sheila Guo was transferred to the custody of the Bureau of Immigration
12:22after the Senate returned a contempt order against her.
12:25We will discuss that and other issues, Ms. Dana Sandoval, spokesperson of the Bureau of Immigration.
12:31Dana, good morning. Welcome to the first news.
12:34Good morning. Good morning, Ivan.
12:36How is Sheila Guo's condition under your custody?
12:40Let us know about her detention conditions, Dana.
12:43Yes. She's currently in our NBI.
12:49Because we see that there are security concerns.
12:54And since our operations is joined with NBI, NBI,
12:59we saw that it would be better if she's in the custody of NBI.
13:07But the legal custody with immigration is still in place.
13:12Now she's facing deportation case for misrepresentation and undesirability.
13:19Did she leave her cell?
13:21From what we know, she's not in NBI.
13:30Along with other detainees. Of course, there's no air conditioning.
13:33She's not allowed to use her cell phone. Is that right?
13:35There's no special treatment for them if they're in NBI.
13:43How long will she be in NBI, Dana?
13:47Her local cases are ongoing.
13:50I believe she's facing an AMLAC case and a passport act case.
13:56But she's going through the deportation case at the same time.
14:00Once the local cases are over, and for example, she was denied asylum,
14:07we would have to wait for her to serve her time first
14:11before we can implement the deportation.
14:14Okay. Our cast of characters is getting longer.
14:17How about Tony Yang? Are you also going to take custody of Tony Yang?
14:21Tony Yang is currently in PAOC, his physical custody.
14:28But we're still studying.
14:30It looks like he's facing local cases.
14:33When it comes to foreign national, he's facing local cases.
14:36He's being placed in a local jail before he's turned over to immigration.
14:43That's the end of their cases.
14:45But it's clear that he has violations in our immigration laws.
14:50Yes. He has a deportation case.
14:53Actually, we arrested him in Naia because we saw that there's misrepresentation and undesirability.
15:04It was revealed in the hearing that Tony Yang has a lot of questionable documents.
15:10Tony Yang, for example, an immigration official can see those documents.
15:16For example, he will show a Philippine passport when he's traveling,
15:19but he doesn't know how to speak Tagalog.
15:21Isn't that a red flag for an immigration officer?
15:24It's a red flag already.
15:26But in his case, he's using a Chinese passport.
15:29I think the documents that were presented that were questionable were birth certificate and other IDs
15:36that are not being checked during immigration inspection.
15:39He's using a Chinese passport during immigration inspection.
15:44But say for example, this person is inside the country and doing businesses and presenting himself as a Filipino.
15:54As in the case, we saw that in his company, he was presenting himself as a Filipino.
16:02During the second registration, there was evidence of that.
16:06That's already considered misrepresentation because if a person is a foreigner,
16:12he cannot present himself as a Filipino.
16:17That's why he was charged with misrepresentation.
16:20Okay. Let's move to Wesley Guo. Do we have an update on his whereabouts?
16:27So far, we don't have an update on that.
16:30The last information that we got from our Indonesian counterpart is that he's still in Indonesia.
16:36Dana, thank you very much for the update. We will continue to hear from the Bureau of Immigration. Thank you.
16:41Thank you Ivan. Good morning.
16:43We talked to Spokesperson Dana Sandoval of the Bureau of Immigration.
16:47More than 250 ships of China were monitored by the Philippine Navy in the West Philippine Sea last week.
16:54The majority of them were in the Skoda Shoal.
16:57But that doesn't mean that it's already controlled by China.
17:01We have an update from Chino Gaston.
17:04You are endangering the safety of our crew.
17:07According to the Philippine Navy, the helicopter of China was made dangerous
17:11when the BIFAR airplane, which patrols the Bajo de Masinloc or Panatag Shoal, collided with it.
17:18They are unsafe maneuvers. They are called for unprofessional.
17:23We leave it up to the BIFAR to issue the appropriate official statement on that.
17:27But again, actions like this have no place in the aviation industry.
17:33In the latest monitoring of the Philippine Navy, 12 Chinese ships were spotted in Bajo de Masinloc.
17:39But there were more in Ayungin Shoal where the BRP Sierra Madre collided.
17:4472 Chinese vessels were in Ayungin Shoal in total.
17:49From the 7 Chinese militia vessels there, it reached 62.
17:54Our soldiers in the BRP Sierra Madre have high morale.
17:59They are used to the numbers around them and they are happy to perform their mandate.
18:04But more were spotted in Skoda Shoal where the BRP Teresa Magbanwa was forced to leave.
18:1116 China Coast Guard and 55 Chinese militia vessels were watching.
18:17The Chinese Navy warships were 11 from the previous 4 only.
18:22In total, from September 17 to 23, 251 Chinese vessels were spotted in different parts of the West Philippine Sea.
18:30Most of them since the Philippine Navy started monitoring.
18:34This is the biggest increase. From 157, it went down a bit, then it went up to 251.
18:40For whatever reason, I don't want to speculate on that, we continue monitoring, we continue performing our mandate.
18:46But this doesn't mean that China is controlling Skoda Shoal.
18:51And we have to continue pushing back against this because the international law is behind us.
18:56The only thing necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.
19:01The only thing necessary to legitimize the presence of the PLA in the West Philippine Sea
19:08is for the Philippine instrumentality in the maritime domain to stop performing its mandate.
19:14The Philippine military will continue to strengthen.
19:18Two fast attack interdiction grafts from Israel arrived that can destroy missiles.
19:24Designed for high speed operations featuring advanced missile systems and sophisticated onboard technology
19:31which enhances the Philippine Navy's capability to conduct rapid and effective maritime interdiction operations.
19:38The arrival of these vessels underscores the continued modernization of the Philippine Navy.
19:43At the Quad Leaders Meeting in America, the leaders of Japan, India, and Australia were together
19:48when US President Joe Biden mentioned the issue in the South China Sea.
19:53China continues to behave aggressively, testing us all across the region.
19:57And it's true in the South China Sea, the East China Sea, South Asia, and the Taiwan Straits.
20:05The answer from the Chinese Foreign Ministry is that America should stop its use and control of other countries to counter China.
20:14This is the first news, Chino Gaston for GMA Integrated News.

23:04Bukod sa pageant veterans, may first timers din.
