Transcript

00:00That motorcycle crossed the road at Kalasyao, Pangasinan, when the car collided.

00:08The rider suffered a severe blow to the head and various parts of the body.

00:13The rider in the hospital is critical.

00:15The driver of the car is facing a case of negligence.

00:21Mayoral race in Manila is about to face the former political partner of Mayor Hanny Lacuna and former Mayor Isko Moreno.

00:30In the election of Mayor of Makati, Senator Nancy will face Congressman Luis Campos.

00:37The other candidates are waiting for the outcome of the local politics in the election of 2025 in the report of Mark Salazar.

00:45To all who did not vote, thank you very much. We will not leave you.

01:02The statement of Mayor Hanny Lacuna of receiving the Certificate of Candidacy for Mayor is full.

01:09He did not mention a name, but he has a loud opponent, his former tandem, former Manila Mayor Isko Moreno.

01:17His COC, Isko, is not yet voting, but he has statements in his social media account.

01:23The time will come, everything will be official.

01:27As long as I'm here, I'm listening to the people. I'm listening to their voices.

01:33Independent candidate Alvin Karingal is also on the list of candidates for mayor.

01:39According to Associate Professor John Robert Goh of the UP Political Science Department,

01:45the fight for the position of Mayor of the Philippines is exciting.

01:49It is often said that the incumbent has an advantage or is in the position, but...

01:54We will see in the election if the machinery will work.

01:57The aim that he laid out while he was mayor in the past three years.

02:01Or did Isko maintain his machinery?

02:05And because he will return, the allegiance of the people will now shift from Hanny to Isko Moreno.

02:13In Makati, the opposition will not allow it.

02:16Senator Nancy Binay has already denied her candidacy for mayor.

02:21Her opponent is Representative Luis Campos, who is the husband of the incumbent mayor and his sister, Abby Binay.

02:30Will the husband file there?

02:32Yes, tomorrow.

02:33Was this discussed with the family, with your parents especially?

02:37There's no discussion. So we will let the people decide.

02:43Former Senator Antonio Trillanes will run for mayor of Caloocan.

02:48The coming months will be very intense as we try to dismantle a corrupt political dynasty.

02:59He will face incumbent mayor Along Malapitan.

03:02Why will you like the new and us if the young and the old are already in front of you?

03:12The fight in local politics is colorful and exciting.

03:16Go will remind how important it is to monitor how the campaign is being conducted.

03:21My concern as a citizen is if a politician will bring out such a big issue to win as mayor of Metro Manila, where will he get it from?

03:37And if he wins, will he get it back?

03:42Mark Salazar reporting for GMA Integrated News.

03:47The Philippine passport of Alice Go has been cancelled.

03:51Despite the allegation that she is not Filipino, Go will run again as the mayor of Bambantarla.

03:58She is being studied by the Justice Department.

04:01Darlene Cai has a report.

04:05Definitely she will be running for mayor.

04:09Alice Go will run again as the mayor of Bambantarla.

04:13If she really wants a person there, who should be the judge?

04:17Even if she is being disqualified due to technicalities,

04:20Atty. David said, this is not final and there are still many processes to go through.

04:24There are no decisions of the courts as of now that she is not Filipino.

04:30How will she decide if she is qualified or not?

04:33Because the Ombudsman ruling is not final yet.

04:36It's not final yet. In fact, we still have a pending reconsideration.

04:40And there is still a Court of Appeals and Supreme Court.

04:43The Ombudsman will still accept Go's Certificate of Candidacy.

04:48As long as a person is not convicted, she can run for any position.

04:53Because that is the ministerial duty of the Ombudsman because we don't have discretion.

04:58It is possible that Go will face her incumbent councillor and acting mayor Eranio Timbang,

05:04Tarlac ex-official board member and barangayano chairman Jose Joey Salting Jr.,

05:09who was Go's strong opponent during the 2022 elections.

05:12Former Bamban Mayor Jose Antonio Feliciano, who was followed by Go.

05:16A tandem of Feliciano, suspended Bamban Vice Mayor Leonardo Ding Anunzacion,

05:21who is running for his re-election.

05:23And the former councillor Rodolfo Rudy Escoto.

05:27Today, Go's Philippine passport was completely cancelled.

05:31The Department of Foreign Affairs explained that it was fraudulently acquired or obtained in the wrong way.

05:37Moreover, DOJ and NBI said that Go's biometrics matched the passport database

05:43and biometrics in Go Waping's NBI files.

05:46That's why Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulia is studying Go's prohibition of candidacy.

05:52She can try but I wouldn't say it's her right because she's not Filipino

05:56and she bears falsified documents.

05:59Having a falsified birth certificate is already very telling on her character and on what she's all about.

06:09If you try to present yourself as a Filipino, you better be a real Filipino.

06:17Senator Joel Villanueva called it ridiculous if Go will still allow

06:23that not a single Filipino can deny that Go's camp has nothing to say about this.

06:29Darlene Kaye reporting for GMA Integrated News.

06:36The four men who suffocated the chickens in the production of fish in Ubando, Bulacan were at home.

06:43One of them was ordered to clean the fermentation pool but he lost consciousness.

06:49The other three who were sick are expected to help.

06:52They might have been infected with a chemical.

06:55The police are aware of the possible responsibility of the owner of the fish farm

07:00especially since the victims don't have safety gears.

07:04We are still trying to get their plates.

07:07According to the police, they promised to pay the expenses for the burial.
