00:00Good morning to the supporters of the former President Rodrigo Duterte in Edsa Shrine.
00:05And live from Quezon City, we have the first news, James Agustin.
00:10James.
00:15Van, good morning. More than 100 supporters of the former President Rodrigo Duterte
00:19passed by Magdamag, here in the back part of Edsa Shrine.
00:25The supporters of the former President lay down one by one.
00:28Others were busy with the program.
00:30Early in the morning, they were still continuing their program
00:34as a show of support for the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:38They hope that there will be a day of celebration
00:41because things are not going well in the country.
00:44There are also bloggers who are live-streaming the events.
00:47Some of them were here yesterday morning.
00:50The situation is fine and the supporters are not busy in the traffic.
00:54There are also policemen from the Quezon City Police District or QCPD.
00:58The head of Edsa Shrine said that he will allow them inside the shrine
01:03as long as they will pray and will not do things that are not in accordance with the rules of the church.
01:08He will not allow them to eat, drink, bring placards and make noise inside the church.
01:14We will try to get a reaction from him regarding the gathering here in Edsa Shrine.
01:20This is the situation here in the back of Edsa Shrine.
01:25The supporters are still here.
01:27We have been circling the front of the shrine since a while ago.
01:30Last night, they did not allow anyone in front of the shrine
01:33so it did not affect the traffic in Edsa Shrine, even in Ortigas Avenue.
01:39Here in the back of the shrine, there are cars passing by
01:43because there is a mall and a parking lot nearby.
01:47They are not allowing people to do their programs here in the middle of the road.
01:52They are only allowing them to do it on the side of the road.
01:55The schedule and operation of this church is normal.
01:58There is a worship service this morning.
02:00We can see that the policemen here are from the QCPD around Edsa Shrine.
02:05But on the other side of the flyover, under the Edsa Ortigas flyover,
02:11there are contingents from the Eastern Police District.
02:14They are the members of the DMFB or District Mobile Force Battalion.
02:17That is the first news from Quezon City.
02:19I am James Agustin for JEMAI Integrated News.
02:22James, it is clear that they will hold a peaceful assembly there.
02:27There is nothing wrong with that.
02:29There is no violation of the law there.
02:31But when you talk to the supporters of the former President,
02:34what do they want to happen and how long do they plan to stay there?
02:38Well Ivan, what the supporters are saying is that they want to have a day of celebration.
02:44That is what they are saying over and over again.
02:47As for the question of how long they will stay here in the back of Edsa Shrine,
02:51they cannot say that yet.
02:53What we have noticed here is that they are free to do their programs here in the back of Edsa Shrine
03:00They are free to do their programs here in the back of Edsa Shrine
03:05and the police of QCPD are far from them.
03:09But there are a lot of police here, not only from QCPD but also from EPD.
03:15Thank you very much James Agustin.
