00:00:00Our program received a message asking us to investigate if it is safe to use the trending lotion in many parts of Mindanao.
00:00:15I will just ask if these products are FDA approved or if they are in the right process.
00:00:20I am just concerned because a lot of people are doing this.
00:00:24The so-called lotion is being mixed in buckets and baskets.
00:00:34It is being shipped not in sachets or containers, but in plastic cups.
00:00:41And it is being sold online.
00:00:44It really makes my skin white and smooth.
00:00:49The so-called lotion is making a lot of women white.
00:00:57But is it safe to use?
00:01:01Along with the ingredients used,
00:01:04friends of Maguindanao and Cotabato City, Aliyah Bay Malaiha and Lamps, are also using it.
00:01:11Lamps is just a kid. She is really insecure about the color of her skin.
00:01:16I really have a dark skin and I have a lot of blemishes.
00:01:19They say that no matter how ugly a person is, if they are white, I want to be white because of my husband.
00:01:24I might look for others. I have used a lot of products, but it really doesn't affect my skin.
00:01:29Until she saw the trending lotion in her timeline.
00:01:33There are two types of this.
00:01:35The bleaching lotion that is recommended for beginners.
00:01:39And mixed lotion for maintenance.
00:01:43I said earlier that I will order a big one.
00:01:45All her feedback will be good.
00:01:48Lamps bought the mixed lotion for P120.
00:01:52She applies it twice a day to her skin.
00:01:55I apply it at night and in the morning.
00:01:56Before I go to sleep, I use this.
00:01:58Everything to make my skin white.
00:02:00And just last week, she saw some changes.
00:02:05Just 7 days ago, all the dark spots were gone.
00:02:09A lot of people ask me what I use.
00:02:12Do you apply lotion?
00:02:13I said no.
00:02:14It's really just mixed lotion.
00:02:15I am happy with her changes.
00:02:18She looks better in my eyes.
00:02:22Aliyah was conscious of her dark face after they went out.
00:02:27Until she saw the mixed lotion in the post of one of her friends.
00:02:32I saw her MyDen.
00:02:34So I commented there.
00:02:35I said, what is your post?
00:02:37That's where it started.
00:02:38I said, bring it to me. I will try it.
00:02:41Aliyah says that she uses it twice a day.
00:02:45And it's only been a month since she started using it.
00:02:48She has already seen results.
00:02:50There are a lot of products for whitening.
00:02:53If you are really young, you should go there.
00:02:56But is this registered in the FDA?
00:03:00But is this registered in the FDA or in the Food and Drug Administration?
00:03:06I will just ask what you mix in the lotion, ma'am.
00:03:09Did it pass the quality control?
00:03:12Especially if it's just mixed in the bottle.
00:03:16Next.
00:03:17To be sure, we tested it.
00:03:20Based on the chemical test.
00:03:22Is it safe to use a whitening product now for the people of Mindanao?
00:03:29I researched this on YouTube on how to mix it.
00:03:34We will find out when we come back.
00:03:39The most popular whitening product now in some parts of Mindanao
00:03:43is the lotion that is mixed with balde and langana.
00:03:50It's only been 7 days and all the black spots are gone.
00:03:53A lot of people ask me what I use.
00:03:56Do you use a lot of lotion?
00:03:57I say no.
00:03:58It's really just a mix of lotion.
00:03:59There are a lot of products.
00:04:03One of the creators of the trending lotion
00:04:06that we learned from Shariff Aguak in Maguindanao,
00:04:10is Bayhani.
00:04:12Mixed Lotion Unleashing started in 2021.
00:04:17I used it after 3 months.
00:04:20I saw that it already had an effect on my skin.
00:04:23I started using it after 3 months.
00:04:26I started using it after 3 months.
00:04:29I saw that it already had an effect on my skin.
00:04:32Bayhani showed our team how to do it.
00:04:36We wear gloves so that we can do it cleanly.
00:04:42That's why it's called mixed lotion
00:04:44because we mix the whitening lotion product.
00:04:49They use 5 ingredients.
00:04:52Lotion, powder, soap, and water.
00:04:56She also added a secret ingredient.
00:05:00I can't show you what I put in there
00:05:04because it's private.
00:05:06I researched on YouTube how to mix it.
00:05:10To make mixing easier,
00:05:12she mixes it with a hand mixer.
00:05:16After 1 hour, we can put it in a container.
00:05:20Bleaching lotion is said to be more effective
00:05:23if you apply it to the skin for 1 to 5 hours.
00:05:28I'm making an example of myself
00:05:30because I have sensitive skin.
00:05:32I used to have dark skin.
00:05:34I used it after 3 months.
00:05:37It already had an effect on my skin.
00:05:42And because it had an effect on her,
00:05:44Bayhani sold it online.
00:05:47After 3 weeks or 1 month,
00:05:50they sent me the changes in their skin.
00:05:54In the case of mixed lotion,
00:05:56someone sent me a message saying,
00:05:58Wow, ma'am, amazing.
00:06:00My melasma is gone.
00:06:02My stress mark is gone.
00:06:04Their product is more sold this December
00:06:08because of its in-demand lotion.
00:06:10Someone gave her money
00:06:12to find out what formulation she used.
00:06:16She offered me P30,000.
00:06:18She said, ma'am, can I get the ingredients of your product?
00:06:22I said, ma'am,
00:06:25I really can't.
00:06:27Even if you give me this amount of money,
00:06:30I won't accept it.
00:06:32But others are concerned
00:06:34if the trending lotion is safe.
00:06:37You should wear gloves
00:06:39and cover your hair.
00:06:41That's all I'm concerned about.
00:06:43We can't identify the ingredients one by one.
00:06:47We need to watch out for the delicate things
00:06:51that can cause a sensitive reaction to our skin,
00:06:55such as redness and itchiness.
00:06:58If we experience this,
00:07:01we should stop using the product
00:07:04because if we continue using it,
00:07:06it will be harmful.
00:07:08That's why we tested its chemical composition.
00:07:12Based on the chemical test,
00:07:15it doesn't have mercury or lead,
00:07:17so it's not detected.
00:07:18That means it didn't exceed the normal limit of detection.
00:07:22But we can't say if it's safe
00:07:24because bleaching solutions have different contents.
00:07:27Considering our test,
00:07:28we won't know if it's totally okay
00:07:32unless we have FDA approval.
00:07:34We went through different tests
00:07:37to find out if the concentrations are within the limit
00:07:40set by our universal standards
00:07:43of the World Health Organization and the FDA.
00:07:47Now, we found out
00:07:49that the lotion sold by Byhani
00:07:52is not registered with the FDA
00:07:54or the Food and Drug Administration.
00:07:56It's high risk
00:07:58because the product is not properly tested
00:08:03to see if it's safe or harmful to us.
00:08:09It can cause contamination,
00:08:13bacterial, fungal,
00:08:15that can affect our products.
00:08:23Byhani says she will follow the process
00:08:26to make her products legal.
00:08:29I will apply to the FDA.
00:08:31I will make sure that our products are legal.
00:08:34I have a small budget.
00:08:37When the Americans hired us,
00:08:39because they are white,
00:08:42this is the standard that they set.
00:08:44If you think you're happy there,
00:08:46your self-confidence will boost.
00:08:48It's okay, just do it.
00:08:50What we need to change is the mindset
00:08:53and culture of Filipinos
00:08:55that white people are superior.
00:08:58In our indigenous communities,
00:09:00there are many white people who are crazy.
00:09:04It's up to you to decide
00:09:06what you want for yourself.
00:09:09As for us,
00:09:11make sure that the products we make
00:09:14are safe in your skin.
00:09:16FDA approved.
00:09:18So you can achieve your dream.
00:09:22Kutis!
00:09:29For those who are saving money,
00:09:33now that it's Noche Buena,
00:09:34here's a dessert that won't hurt your pocket.
00:09:38Our favorite mango graham cake
00:09:42was leveled up and made bite-sized.
00:09:46The trending graham bar.
00:09:49Try it!
00:09:51The FYP of 4U page
00:09:56and timeline are in full swing right now.
00:09:58Let's open it and let's see if it tastes good.
00:10:02It's good.
00:10:03In this morning,
00:10:05which is a must in our preparations,
00:10:08especially now that Christmas is coming.
00:10:12Cream mixed with condensed milk.
00:10:15Fruity and delicious.
00:10:17Kutis.
00:10:19Layered with graham cracker.
00:10:23And french fries.
00:10:26But the trend now is
00:10:28to serve it bite-sized.
00:10:34This is the trending graham bar.
00:10:40The first to make this
00:10:43was Arlene from Valenzuela City.
00:10:46It was only in 2019
00:10:48when she started her business.
00:10:50I learned how to make graham in my village
00:10:53because she tried the graham on the top.
00:10:56She asked me if she could make a bite-sized graham.
00:11:00Her initial price was only 500 pesos.
00:11:05We have cream, condensed milk, and mango.
00:11:08Let's start with the cream.
00:11:10The cream should be chilled for at least 2 hours.
00:11:14Next is the condensed milk.
00:11:20When it thickens, add the mango.
00:11:22The mango should be ripe.
00:11:29Then, pour it into the mold with the graham cracker.
00:11:40It's like an ice cream cake.
00:11:42She sold each serving for 28 pesos.
00:11:46At first, I didn't know it would be this good.
00:11:49It was new to me.
00:11:50It's delicious.
00:11:51Her graham bar really hit the jackpot
00:11:54just last year.
00:11:56A vlogger discovered the graham bar.
00:11:58The mango is delicious.
00:12:00Since she started the graham bar, it became a trend.
00:12:03We only sell 2 pieces per head.
00:12:07Arlene can sell 400 pieces of graham bar per day.
00:12:13It's not that expensive.
00:12:14It's not boring.
00:12:15You'll come back.
00:12:17Arlene used to work as an OFW in Dubai.
00:12:19And her mister,
00:12:21when they were able to save money for their water refilling station business,
00:12:25they decided to go back to the Philippines in 2011.
00:12:29But their graham bar business is making more money.
00:12:34We earn Php 14,000 per day.
00:12:37It's a mix of emotions.
00:12:38It's fun and tiring.
00:12:39But we can do it.
00:12:44What they recommend in Quezon City
00:12:46is not just one flavor of their graham bar.
00:12:49There's mango, cookies and cream,
00:12:52strawberry,
00:12:53and many more.
00:12:55It's not chewy.
00:12:56It's thick.
00:12:57It's delicious.
00:12:58It's soft.
00:12:59It's not too sweet.
00:13:01At the back of this stand,
00:13:03is the baker, Faye,
00:13:05who now has 20 flavors of graham bar.
00:13:10To make our graham bars softer and easier to cut,
00:13:16we need to wet it with a little water.
00:13:20All-purpose cream.
00:13:21Condensed milk.
00:13:26We can now put our biscuits.
00:13:32Lastly, we'll put our graham crackers.
00:13:35We can put it in the freezer for 5 hours.
00:13:39Then, we can cut and wrap it.
00:13:41Each serving is Php 40 to 45.
00:13:44Faye used to sell cakes and pastries.
00:13:48I started making graham bars
00:13:50when I saw a viral video.
00:13:53I thought,
00:13:54why don't I make my own?
00:13:57Now, she sells it like it's Christmas.
00:14:01We usually earn Php 5 every week.
00:14:04I'm so happy.
00:14:05Of course, I can help my parents.
00:14:10The graham bar for the Tigaligaspis City in Albay
00:14:15is extra sweet.
00:14:18It's dipped in chocolate.
00:14:21But wait, there's more.
00:14:23You can add toppings.
00:14:26This is the chocolate-coated graham bar by Beverly.
00:14:31We'll coat it with chocolate.
00:14:38We can now put cookies.
00:14:45We'll put it in the freezer for 5 to 7 hours.
00:14:52You can now put it here.
00:14:57The combination of matcha and chocolate is delicious.
00:15:00It's not too sweet.
00:15:01It's just right.
00:15:02It's delicious.
00:15:04The making of pastries or desserts
00:15:08was just a hobby of Beverly.
00:15:10When I was young, we loved to make waffles.
00:15:13It's fun to bake and eat.
00:15:16Until I got serious.
00:15:18It became her way to escape her bitter breakup.
00:15:24I wanted to move on.
00:15:27I wanted to escape the pain.
00:15:29So I created an outlet to have patience.
00:15:33It helped me.
00:15:34It made me forget and helped me to be better.
00:15:37Until it became popular.
00:15:40Here in Ligaspi, a lot of people sell it.
00:15:43I thought, why not coat it?
00:15:47The consumption of too much sweet food
00:15:51increases the risk of obesity,
00:15:55heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, and others.
00:15:58We always have to practice moderation.
00:16:01For those who are trending in food,
00:16:03we thank you.
00:16:06Because it's a different way to do business
00:16:09or be sensual
00:16:11and taste the sweetness of success.
00:16:15Let's go!
00:16:20In Mati in Davao Oriental,
00:16:23let's meet their cutest baby driver.
00:16:29The pickup trucks in Barangay Sanghai
00:16:32in the city of Mati in Davao Oriental
00:16:36are often loaded with construction supplies.
00:16:40But because the vehicles are big
00:16:42and the roads are bumpy,
00:16:44it's hard for them to maneuver.
00:16:48On the other hand,
00:16:49one of the drivers of this truck
00:16:54seems to have milk in his mouth.
00:17:01John Mark, who is only 4 feet tall,
00:17:05is the one who drives most of the grade 2 students.
00:17:10This is the pickup truck that I drive.
00:17:13Even though it's small,
00:17:14it's not afraid to get on the truck.
00:17:18It's placed in front of the handlebars.
00:17:21The pedals are reached.
00:17:22I lower it a little so I can reach the clutch.
00:17:26And this one,
00:17:28it's driven.
00:17:36It's delivered within Barangay.
00:17:39It will give me P300.
00:17:41It's really hard for me to maneuver
00:17:43when the pedals are manual and deep.
00:17:46When I need to use the clutch,
00:17:47I lower it so I can reach the clutch.
00:17:50And don't underestimate it.
00:17:52It can also drive a car.
00:17:55Come on, accelerator.
00:17:56Oh, the kid drove.
00:17:58Hey, Naya!
00:18:01It can also drive a motorcycle on the highway.
00:18:05Where are its companions?
00:18:07Larger vehicles.
00:18:10There it goes.
00:18:11There it is, Totoy.
00:18:13It was chased by the HPG or Highway Patrol Group.
00:18:17It really took my motorcycle.
00:18:19Is your anxiety for the person behind the handlebars reaching the sky?
00:18:28We know that a child should not drive a truck
00:18:32because it's very dangerous.
00:18:35But even though it looks small,
00:18:37John Mark has something to clarify.
00:18:40I'm not a child anymore.
00:18:42I'm already 19 years old.
00:18:45Yes, this driver.
00:18:48The age is already legal.
00:18:49I can't trust them because they say I'm 5 years old.
00:18:53It's not like I'm 19 years old.
00:18:55But even though John Mark is already in his element,
00:18:58is he allowed to drive?
00:19:01For today's video, right?
00:19:04John Mark is often mistaken for a child.
00:19:07Sometimes, when I ride a bus,
00:19:09the conductor told me,
00:19:11Oh, a child is not allowed here.
00:19:13We might be stopped at the checkpoint because there's a child and no one is with us.
00:19:17Our baby face,
00:19:19even though it's a child,
00:19:20the responsibilities in life are already heavy.
00:19:23My first job is to feed the dogs,
00:19:26free house, free food,
00:19:28and I have an allowance of P500 a week.
00:19:31He also became a houseboy in Mati.
00:19:34This is what I use when I wash dishes.
00:19:38My aunt brought me to a stop in the municipality.
00:19:41I help at home.
00:19:43I've been there for 2 years.
00:19:44They also teach me.
00:19:48John Mark is now in his first year
00:19:50in the Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness Management.
00:19:54My dream is to become a businessman
00:19:56and build a big farm.
00:19:58I talked to myself.
00:20:00I really say that if I become a businessman,
00:20:04I will help the poor.
00:20:06But even in school,
00:20:08he is still forbidden.
00:20:10There's no elementary school here.
00:20:12I said, I'm not a kid anymore.
00:20:14I already have an ID here in the school.
00:20:16It's not obvious that it's a college.
00:20:18I thought he was going to pass.
00:20:20In the whole school, he is the only student
00:20:22who is like that.
00:20:24Good morning, class.
00:20:25Good morning, sir.
00:20:26Oh, you're a student?
00:20:28I thought he was just a brother of a student.
00:20:30He's like a small artist.
00:20:32Because a lot of people know him.
00:20:34When I'm in the park,
00:20:36I carry things.
00:20:42When I'm in the canteen,
00:20:44I'm surrounded by girls.
00:20:46Can I take a picture?
00:20:49You're so cute!
00:20:51I pinch my cheeks.
00:20:53Hey, you're so cute.
00:20:55We didn't expect him to be our classmate.
00:20:58He's really cute.
00:21:00His face is like a kid,
00:21:02especially his voice.
00:21:04In school,
00:21:06John Mark also needs inspiration.
00:21:09So like his other peers,
00:21:11John Mark also falls in love.
00:21:14When I was 17,
00:21:16I had a girlfriend.
00:21:17We became a couple almost 3 months.
00:21:19We didn't see each other on Facebook.
00:21:22But if there is a love that John Mark is looking for,
00:21:26it is love from his own parents.
00:21:30Because John Mark
00:21:32didn't know his real father.
00:21:35While his mother, Felin,
00:21:37left him to his grandmother, Marlinda,
00:21:40and grandfather, Felix.
00:21:42He left us for 3 days.
00:21:45John Mark is a poor kid
00:21:47because his mother doesn't know
00:21:49that he has no father or mother.
00:21:56It's really hard to have no parents
00:21:58because I get jealous
00:22:00when I see the whole family.
00:22:06Felin had two more children with another man,
00:22:10Rene Boy and Nicole.
00:22:12Like John Mark,
00:22:14he was also left in the power of his grandparents.
00:22:17His mother said,
00:22:18I will give you the child
00:22:20because I will look for a job.
00:22:22We don't know where he will go.
00:22:25I cried because of the poverty of my three grandchildren.
00:22:35I don't have anything to ask them.
00:22:37All I can say is,
00:22:40why did they do this to us?
00:22:42Why did they leave us?
00:22:44Our grandparents can't take it anymore.
00:22:48It's really painful
00:22:50because they left us for so many years.
00:22:56They don't support us.
00:23:00I can forgive them
00:23:02because they said
00:23:04that I should be the one to forgive them.
00:23:10I hope you can hear this.
00:23:13I hope you can see this.
00:23:21As the years went by,
00:23:23John Mark's siblings grew up,
00:23:25but he seemed to be left behind.
00:23:28Even though he was small,
00:23:30we respected him.
00:23:32I would sell okra for 35 pesos per kilo
00:23:36to buy rice.
00:23:37My grandfather's job is in the field.
00:23:40He takes care of the chickens in the field.
00:23:43When the chickens grow up,
00:23:46he sells them to make money.
00:23:50Their life became more difficult
00:23:53when his grandfather Felix died in 2021.
00:23:57It became more difficult
00:24:01because no one worked for us.
00:24:04That's when my grandfather
00:24:07couldn't support us anymore.
00:24:11So I worked as a student
00:24:14to finish my studies.
00:24:19My grandfather's job is in the field.
00:24:22He takes care of the chickens in the field.
00:24:26It became more difficult for us.
00:24:32This is the motorcycle that my friends bought from the junk shop.
00:24:37They saved a lot of money
00:24:39to buy this motorcycle
00:24:41so that I can go to school.
00:24:45Whenever John Mark rides a motorcycle,
00:24:48he is often stopped at checkpoints
00:24:51not because he is a child.
00:24:53I don't have a license because I don't have money.
00:24:56My motorcycle doesn't have a race track.
00:24:58I discarded it so that I won't be late for class.
00:25:02Just a reminder,
00:25:03it is very dangerous to ride a motorcycle without a license.
00:25:07This is strictly prohibited by the law.
00:25:10If a person rides a motorcycle without a driver's license
00:25:14and is apprehended,
00:25:16the unit will be impounded.
00:25:19My dream is to have a complete race track
00:25:22and a license
00:25:24so that I can easily go to the police.
00:25:28Will he be given a license despite his height?
00:25:33There are no guidelines in the LTO regarding height requirements.
00:25:37You need to be 16 years old and above
00:25:39physically and mentally fit.
00:25:41The LTO Mati District Office is willing to assist Sergeant Mark
00:25:45so that he can get a driver's license.
00:25:48We are also willing to assist
00:25:50so that we can register his motorcycle.
00:25:55It is not allowed for him to drive a standard cargo type
00:26:01or pickup type of motor vehicle
00:26:04not unless it is customized according to his condition.
00:26:09It is really dangerous
00:26:10because the risk involved in terms of motor vehicles is high.
00:26:15I won't be able to ride a truck if I don't have a license.
00:26:19If I don't have a license, I won't be able to ride a standard vehicle.
00:26:23But what is the condition of John Mark?
00:26:26Our team asked a specialist to check him.
00:26:30Initially, I think it is dwarfism.
00:26:32We have another consideration,
00:26:34which is Neotenic Complex Syndrome.
00:26:36His lifespan is the same as normal people.
00:26:40So there is nothing to worry about.
00:26:43Meanwhile, the LTO Mati District Office provided food and financial assistance.
00:26:49Thank you to everyone who helped me.
00:26:52I am happy because...
00:27:02I was surprised, sir.
00:27:06This is a big help for us.
00:27:09I will give help to my grandmother and my siblings.
00:27:13This is also a big help for us, sir, for the farm.
00:27:19You can go to the office.
00:27:22Quarterly, you can receive educational assistance.
00:27:26When you graduate,
00:27:28CSWD Mati and PESO can help you find a job.
00:27:34Thank you very much to everyone who helped me
00:27:37and to LTO Mati.
00:27:39Thank you very much.
00:27:40And to my cousin, Jessica Suo.
00:27:42Thank you very much.
00:27:46Even though John Mark looks young,
00:27:48his experiences are not a joke.
00:27:51His maturity is true.
00:27:56He does not look old.
00:27:58But somehow, he was determined and his experiences made him strong in life.
00:28:08A NEW CHALLENGE
00:28:11A NEW CHALLENGE
00:28:14Tomorrow, we're going to the mountain and we're going to do some swimming.
00:28:20I'm just going to chill out. It's only like 1 o'clock.
00:28:23It's just going to happen. It was fun.
00:28:24This is not the typical content that his subscribers are watching.
00:28:30The authorities are looking for the American man who was kidnapped by armed men who introduced themselves as police.
00:28:36This foreign vlogger is now in the news
00:28:41because of what happened to him.
00:28:44A CRIME
00:28:45Then he was taken to his house by four armed men.
00:28:47The American vlogger, Elliot Eastman,
00:28:51was taken to his house in Cebuco, Zamboanga del Norte.
00:28:59Almost two months have passed since he was kidnapped.
00:29:03This week, PNP has an update on the real kidnapper of Elliot Eastman.
00:29:10We caught a witness.
00:29:14Where is the American vlogger now?
00:29:17There's people that wanted to kidnap me.
00:29:22In 2023, the Vermont resident in the USA, Elliot Eastman,
00:29:28went to the Philippines.
00:29:29He lived like a local in Cebuco.
00:29:33It's good.
00:29:34Where did he get married?
00:29:36The Filipino, Carisha.
00:29:38He's my husband.
00:29:43Check out our room.
00:29:45Check out our room.
00:29:47We got a small little diamond in there.
00:29:50Their life in the province was captured by two people in their vlogs.
00:29:55I like Cebuco.
00:29:56It's my favorite store.
00:30:00I'm tired.
00:30:03Yeah.
00:30:05But in one of his last vlogs, Elliot Eastman,
00:30:08expressed his concern.
00:30:11People come in here to tell my family that there's people that wanted to kidnap me.
00:30:16Until the night of October 17, Elliot Eastman,
00:30:20was kidnapped by unknown men.
00:30:23I was about to go to sleep and I heard my mom.
00:30:30I knocked on the door.
00:30:32She said,
00:30:33No, no.
00:30:35I said,
00:30:36I don't know who you are.
00:30:38She said,
00:30:39I don't know who you are.
00:30:44When we got out, they started shooting at us.
00:30:47Move!
00:30:48The men recognized the police.
00:30:52They told us,
00:30:53Drop.
00:30:54They said,
00:30:55Grid.
00:30:56Then they said,
00:30:57Where's the police?
00:30:58They said,
00:30:59He's the one who brought the kidnappers here.
00:31:01I was about to sleep.
00:31:02I was about to sleep.
00:31:04They started shooting at us.
00:31:06I said,
00:31:07No, no.
00:31:08I said,
00:31:09I don't know who you are.
00:31:10I was about to sleep.
00:31:11Until the kidnappers got even more violent.
00:31:16I was about to sleep.
00:31:17I was about to sleep.
00:31:18They were shooting at me.
00:31:19I was about to sleep.
00:31:20I was about to sleep.
00:31:24They shot us twice.
00:31:26When he saw that,
00:31:28he was positive.
00:31:29He shot right here.
00:31:31Inside their house,
00:31:33Ely's blood was still left.
00:31:36It was from his wound when he was shot.
00:31:39I ran.
00:31:40I ran.
00:31:41I couldn't reach him.
00:31:43When the two of them came out,
00:31:44they pushed him.
00:31:45They pushed him.
00:31:46He was here.
00:31:47He was up to here.
00:31:48Ely's wound
00:31:49was pinched by the armed men.
00:31:52They were riding a motorized boat.
00:31:54And they were in a mess.
00:31:57They were parking there.
00:31:59On the boat.
00:32:00Yes, on the boat.
00:32:04The PNP in Cebuco
00:32:06was very surprised
00:32:08when they were kidnapped by Ely.
00:32:10It was already cleared that
00:32:12upon verification,
00:32:14there was no legitimate operations
00:32:17from any government
00:32:19or any law enforcement in the area
00:32:21against Elyot.
00:32:22And they immediately conducted an investigation.
00:32:26Until this October 27,
00:32:28the two of the suspects
00:32:30surrendered to the authorities.
00:32:32It became a way to surrender
00:32:34to one of their accomplices.
00:32:36The mouths of the suspects were choked.
00:32:39Where is Ely?
00:32:40And if he is still alive?
00:32:43Until this week,
00:32:45the PNP spread it to the public.
00:32:47They found a witness
00:32:49who can clarify the case.
00:32:52We got a witness
00:32:54relative of one of our suspects
00:32:57in the abduction case of Elyotisman.
00:33:00According to the witness' testimony,
00:33:02when Ely was dumped by the suspects
00:33:05on the night of October 17,
00:33:07he jumped.
00:33:09He resisted
00:33:11to his captors.
00:33:13And he was shot there.
00:33:15His bullet
00:33:16was shot
00:33:18in Hita
00:33:19and in Bandang Chan.
00:33:21And according to them,
00:33:22before they drove Ely
00:33:24on the boat
00:33:25that they will use as a getaway vehicle,
00:33:28they found out
00:33:29that Elyotisman was dead.
00:33:32This testimony
00:33:33was confirmed
00:33:35by one of the suspects
00:33:37who was caught
00:33:38just last month.
00:33:40The boatman
00:33:41who used a motorized boat
00:33:42to go around Ely.
00:33:44He was the one
00:33:45who confirmed
00:33:46the information
00:33:47we got
00:33:48from the previous witness.
00:33:50They said the same thing
00:33:51about what happened.
00:33:52A gunshot wound,
00:33:53when it hits
00:33:54a large part of the body,
00:33:56can cause massive bleeding.
00:33:58At least,
00:33:59a person has
00:34:005 to 6 liters of blood.
00:34:01If half of the blood is lost,
00:34:03at least 50% to 75%,
00:34:05if not captured,
00:34:06he can die.
00:34:08But the question is,
00:34:09where are
00:34:10Ely's remains?
00:34:12What they did
00:34:14They decided
00:34:15to drop
00:34:16his body
00:34:17in the sea.
00:34:18My husband is dead.
00:34:19Until I saw
00:34:21his body,
00:34:22I can't say
00:34:23that my husband is dead.
00:34:24He's like my son.
00:34:26It really hurts me, ma'am.
00:34:28I accepted
00:34:29this conversation.
00:34:33The authorities
00:34:34immediately carried out
00:34:35a follow-up investigation.
00:34:37We were brought by a suspect
00:34:39where they said
00:34:41that Elyotisman's body
00:34:42was dropped.
00:34:43He was in the open sea
00:34:45in Labuan,
00:34:46in Buanga City.
00:34:47But it's very proximate
00:34:48to Cebuco.
00:34:50Here,
00:34:51they found
00:34:52the boat
00:34:53that the suspects used.
00:34:55We couldn't find
00:34:56traces of blood
00:34:57on the boat
00:34:58that they used
00:34:59because after they
00:35:00washed it,
00:35:01they cleaned it
00:35:02and painted it again.
00:35:03There was not a single day
00:35:04that I didn't think of him.
00:35:06Look at his face.
00:35:07He's so very clean
00:35:09and bright.
00:35:10I was traumatized
00:35:11when we couldn't
00:35:12go outside
00:35:13because we were scared.
00:35:15I was scared.
00:35:17The people
00:35:18who took my belongings,
00:35:20they might come back to us.
00:35:23Karisha also talked
00:35:25to Ely's family
00:35:26in America
00:35:27even though
00:35:28they didn't want
00:35:29to be interviewed
00:35:30by the media.
00:35:31Of course,
00:35:32it hurts me, ma'am,
00:35:33because their son
00:35:34happened here
00:35:35in my house.
00:35:36I was also concerned.
00:35:38I said,
00:35:39let's just pray, mother,
00:35:40because
00:35:41if we see his body,
00:35:42there might be a chance
00:35:43that he'll come back to us.
00:35:45He's trying to strengthen
00:35:46my heart.
00:35:47They're not blaming me.
00:35:51The police
00:35:52are still not giving up.
00:35:54We alerted
00:35:55all the police stations
00:35:56that there are
00:35:57people here in our area.
00:35:59We also coordinated
00:36:00with the neighboring island.
00:36:02Unfortunately,
00:36:03no one has reported
00:36:04that they found
00:36:05a dead body
00:36:07in Buanga Peninsula.
00:36:09As of now,
00:36:10there are 10 suspects
00:36:11who are PNP.
00:36:13Five of these
00:36:14are already in custody
00:36:15by the police.
00:36:19The list
00:36:20was added
00:36:21to the list
00:36:22of one more suspect
00:36:23after a bloody
00:36:25encounter
00:36:26in Cebuco.
00:36:27From among the three people
00:36:29who died in the encounter,
00:36:31we learned
00:36:32that one of the three
00:36:34is one of the four
00:36:35suspects
00:36:36who actually
00:36:37abducted
00:36:38Eliott Eastman.
00:36:39Four more
00:36:40suspects
00:36:41are still being
00:36:42searched
00:36:43by the authorities.
00:36:44It was already
00:36:45confirmed
00:36:46that he also
00:36:47doesn't have
00:36:48any drugs record.
00:36:49We believe
00:36:50that they started
00:36:51with ransom
00:36:52in mind.
00:36:53Because of
00:36:54the kidnapping of Eli,
00:36:55some of the residents
00:36:56in the province
00:36:57are still
00:36:58worried
00:36:59about their safety.
00:37:00I'm retired.
00:37:01I was a
00:37:02United States Marine.
00:37:03I chose
00:37:04to live here
00:37:05to be with my wife.
00:37:06I've been here
00:37:07in this area
00:37:08for two months.
00:37:09When I heard about it,
00:37:10I was like,
00:37:11well, it's a terrible thing.
00:37:12So,
00:37:13I stayed home.
00:37:14I'm also worried.
00:37:15He's always on alert.
00:37:16He doesn't sleep
00:37:17at night.
00:37:18We coordinate
00:37:19with the police
00:37:20and soldiers
00:37:21here
00:37:22to maintain
00:37:23the security
00:37:24of our locals
00:37:25and the tourists
00:37:26who come in.
00:37:27This incident
00:37:28is an isolated case.
00:37:30It has been the first
00:37:31for several years now.
00:37:33Meanwhile,
00:37:34Christian,
00:37:35even though
00:37:36he has the slightest hope,
00:37:38he continues
00:37:39to hold on
00:37:40and hope
00:37:41that one day
00:37:42he will see
00:37:43his wife again.
00:37:46I should not
00:37:47lose hope.
00:37:48I will pray for him.
00:37:50I will pray for him.
00:37:51I hope he can go home
00:37:52and my wife
00:37:53can come back to me.
00:38:02I couldn't accept it
00:38:03because I didn't see
00:38:04the body.
00:38:06They didn't show us
00:38:07the evidence.
00:38:08But in my heart,
00:38:11my son is alive.
00:38:16Ma'am,
00:38:17please help us.
00:38:22I just want to call Ma'am
00:38:23and ask her
00:38:24to come home
00:38:27and be safe
00:38:28wherever she is.
00:38:30I want to see her
00:38:31and I want her
00:38:32to be with me again.
00:38:33Look,
00:38:34I'm looks like
00:38:35older than him.
00:38:40I really need
00:38:41help from people.
00:38:44I hope
00:38:46Enyot can come back
00:38:47and he can be found.
00:38:49We can meet again.
00:38:51I feel sorry for you.
00:38:52Please come back
00:38:53to my son.
00:38:54Who can
00:38:55comfort him?
00:39:04Please don't leave me.
00:39:06I need you.
00:39:08I need you.
00:39:14The song became popular
00:39:15in the 90's.
00:39:20But until now,
00:39:23it's still played
00:39:30and still danced
00:39:31in the provinces
00:39:33whenever there are parties and reunions.
00:39:42Even in reality, most of us don't understand what the lyrics mean.
00:39:51The beat is like, you know, you can hear the beat.
00:39:56It was very popular in the 1980s all over the Philippines
00:40:01because the rhythm is lively.
00:40:05This is Dayang Dayang.
00:40:15Because the language seems different.
00:40:25There are speculations that the song Dayang Dayang
00:40:28is really similar to a song that was first recorded in our neighboring country,
00:40:34in Southeast Asia, Malaysia.
00:40:37In this video, from Sabah,
00:40:40you can see two girls dancing to the song Pinamagatang Pakiring.
00:40:45The lyrics are different, but the tone is familiar.
00:40:49The tone of Dayang Dayang is similar.
00:40:59There are others who believe that the lyrics of Dayang Dayang
00:41:03are the words of Tausug from Sulu province in Mindanao.
00:41:07When we say Dayang Dayang,
00:41:09this is a first order princess from the Tausug culture.
00:41:13But the most important part of the lyrics
00:41:15is the combination of the people in Southern Mindanao,
00:41:20which is the Tausug and the Samadilao.
00:41:22There are also speculations that the song Dayang Dayang
00:41:26is the first lady of Sulu and the daughter of the sultan,
00:41:32Dayang Dayang Haji Pyandaw Kiram.
00:41:36But all of these are just rumors.
00:41:40The song is sure to be named High Noon.
00:41:45However, there is very little information about her personality.
00:41:51Until when?
00:41:53The diva behind the iconic song,
00:41:58Lumantad sa Publiko.
00:42:05In a faraway province of Tawi-tawi,
00:42:08we will find out the long-awaited search of Filipinos.
00:42:13In this vlog of the content creator Kapuril,
00:42:17he shared his trip to the farthest province of the Philippines,
00:42:26Tawi-tawi.
00:42:28One of his destinations is the town of Sitangkay.
00:42:32Here in Sitangkay, you will find their floating market
00:42:37that is really visited by many tourists.
00:42:40But what really amazed the vlogger
00:42:42when he learned that the original singer and songwriter of the iconic song, Dayang Dayang,
00:42:50does not really live in Malaysia,
00:42:53but here in the farthest island in the south of the Philippines.
00:43:01We learned that here in Sitangkay,
00:43:05you can find the original song, Dayang Dayang.
00:43:09Someone told me,
00:43:11Sir, why don't you go to Hainun?
00:43:14And when the locals told me that he is the original singer of Dayang Dayang,
00:43:20I got interested.
00:43:22When I was young, I remember that Dayang Dayang is really famous.
00:43:27My parents also asked me to dance.
00:43:29I don't know who the original singer is.
00:43:32Until he faced this.
00:43:34This is the one and only
00:43:39Miss Hainun.
00:43:41She is the original singer of Dayang Dayang.
00:43:44Noor Hainun Pangilan, or better known as Hainun.
00:43:49She is not Malaysian, like it was first thought.
00:43:53She is from the Samad Dilaut tribe.
00:44:01Unlike Hainun, who is the original singer of Dayang Dayang,
00:44:08she is a Filipino.
00:44:18Almost three decades have passed since her song became famous.
00:44:23This is Hainun's first television interview.
00:44:34Hainun is now 52 years old.
00:44:36When Hainun was young, she really loved to sing.
00:44:40Her strategy was to sell ice candies.
00:44:50Because of her talent in singing, she is often invited to occasions.
00:44:55No matter how rich or poor, Hainun is open to any tribe.
00:45:00And when she is invited, their arrangement is how much they will give her.
00:45:05And because of a one to three-hour ride on a boat,
00:45:09far from Tawi-Tawi in Malaysia,
00:45:12Hainun even traveled there for her gigs.
00:45:16Until the 80s, while she was singing in a wedding in Malaysia,
00:45:21Hainun, who was only 15 years old, was discovered by a Malaysian recording company.
00:45:34She returned to Malaysia to record other songs.
00:45:43But in the dynamics of her songs,
00:45:46there is one that not only became famous in Malaysia,
00:45:49but also sang not only in a large part of Mindanao,
00:45:53but also in the whole Philippines.
00:45:57This is Dayang Dayak.
00:46:14In 1996, when Hainun's record was released,
00:46:17Dayang Dayak in Malaysia,
00:46:20she used the language in its lyrics,
00:46:23the words of their tribe, Sama Dilaut.
00:46:27And did you know that she thought of the lyrics on the spot?
00:46:48To complete it, Hainun painted the dance steps of a dancer
00:46:54who was with her while recording the song.
00:46:57No one else but her mister, Aljan.
00:47:01Another trivia,
00:47:03Dayang Dayak is not the title of her hit song.
00:47:07It is based on what is printed on her cassette tape.
00:47:11The real title of this song is Dumba Dumba.
00:47:15The word Dumba Dumba,
00:47:17is the name of the song that Dayang Dayak sang.
00:47:21And the title of this song is Dumba Dumba.
00:47:25The real title of this song is Dumba Dumba.
00:47:29It is a Malaysian word that if translated into their language,
00:47:33is Kiring Kiring.
00:47:35It means,
00:47:42After Dayang Dayak's record was released,
00:47:45Hainun received a talent fee of 30,000 pesos.
00:47:50She was also given 100 copies of cassettes.
00:47:54She brought them and sold them here in the Philippines.
00:47:58She was often invited there,
00:48:01especially in the 90s in Malaysia.
00:48:04From what she earned from singing,
00:48:06she was able to educate her siblings.
00:48:09I am the one who supports all of them.
00:48:12I am very proud of her.
00:48:14Until now, sir,
00:48:16my life became a success because of Hainun.
00:48:21But when Hainun became a freelancer in recording songs,
00:48:26her life just revolved around taking care of her children and grandchildren.
00:48:38But she did not completely leave the world of music.
00:48:42There were still times when she was invited to sing in Sabah.
00:48:51If you go to Sitangkai, Malaysia,
00:48:55via boat, it is 50 kilometers.
00:48:59Malaysians are allowed to go there
00:49:02because they have a passage called Lepa Lepa.
00:49:06But they cannot stay there for long.
00:49:16She might have become popular because she was the one who recorded.
00:49:20If we look at the sound,
00:49:22again, going back on the culture,
00:49:24we can say that the most important thing is the ownership of the community.
00:49:28If we look at the culture of Moro,
00:49:30we can say that there is no identity that owns the music.
00:49:34It means that the value is shared.
00:49:37The diva behind the iconic song Dayang Dayang,
00:49:41we know her now,
00:49:43Hainun,
00:49:45a Filipino.
00:49:47When I was young, my song was very popular.
00:49:55But they did not know me very well.
00:50:02But of course, I am happy and proud.
00:50:08The queen of Dayang Dayang,
00:50:12Yas Queen!
00:50:17DAYANG DAYANG!
00:50:27There is an old belief
00:50:30that when a human leaves a green spot,
00:50:36he is a good person.
00:50:38And green bones have a charm.
00:50:42Good luck!
00:50:43Roddy, Rona, and Joed from Bukawe, Bulacan have two most precious stones.
00:50:53One is displayed on the altar of their house.
00:50:57While the other one, Roddy always carries it wherever he goes.
00:51:04These stones are not made of gold.
00:51:08Not even a precious stone can compensate for the importance of these stones.
00:51:18Because it is inscribed on the altar not only the image of their late mother, Edna,
00:51:23but also a piece of her bone instead of being white, it is green.
00:51:30This is called a green bone.
00:51:38According to Chinese beliefs, it is rare to find a green bone beside a human being.
00:51:46It means it is a good person.
00:51:51It is a fact.
00:51:55In the case of their mother, Edna, when she was still alive.
00:52:00When I found out that she has a green bone, I did not hesitate.
00:52:04Because I know that she is a good person.
00:52:06Not only in our family.
00:52:08Edna grew up in a poor family.
00:52:10In the 1970s, she became a working student in Manila.
00:52:15Later, they formed the family of her husband, Roddy.
00:52:19We did not fight.
00:52:22Sometimes, he would beat me.
00:52:25I really love him.
00:52:27When we got married, we did not have anyone else.
00:52:31We raised our child.
00:52:34We wanted to give her a good life.
00:52:37When they sent us to school, we were able to finish our studies.
00:52:40He did everything.
00:52:42He did everything so that my brother and I could finish our studies.
00:52:50We want to pay back for what they did to us.
00:52:56Just like my mother and my father.
00:52:59Because I know how much they did for us.
00:53:11Edna is also a faithful servant of the Church.
00:53:14She is a devotee of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage in Tondo.
00:53:18She always goes to church with my father.
00:53:22He is the one who gives donations.
00:53:27I'm very thankful.
00:53:30She also became a devotee of giving gifts to children every Christmas.
00:53:35Even if the child is just with us, we do not give birth.
00:53:39Everything has a Christmas.
00:53:40She felt the goodness of Edna's heart even though she is not a blood relative.
00:53:46Just like her ex-colleague, Maricel.
00:53:49She is the only one I can tell when I have problems.
00:53:52She is like my second mother when it comes to work.
00:53:59There was a time when Edna was taking care of her children.
00:54:04She did not think twice.
00:54:06She even washed my clothes.
00:54:11She also loves to dance.
00:54:13They both dance.
00:54:16Edna also fell from heaven for her ex-husband, Angelina.
00:54:21Every time she goes home, she brings a lot of things.
00:54:23She gives everything she has at home.
00:54:26They became like my family.
00:54:28They became like my parents and my guides.
00:54:31Edna also became a way for her to learn dressmaking.
00:54:36Even though the chief also encouraged her to teach her two children.
00:54:41I hope that if she is still alive, I can make her feel that she is important to me.
00:55:01But in 2018, Edna was hospitalized after falling from a car.
00:55:07She had a fracture in her back.
00:55:09Since then, her body deteriorated.
00:55:15She developed dementia.
00:55:22And she was also blind.
00:55:25I regret it.
00:55:26Of course, I wanted to see her for a long time.
00:55:29We had planned to visit her for a long time.
00:55:32But it did not happen.
00:55:35It did not continue.
00:55:37When she got sick, we gave her everything we could.
00:55:43We gave her everything we could from the hospital.
00:55:57I resigned.
00:55:58We were together every day.
00:56:05She was already having a hard time at that time.
00:56:08We rushed her to the hospital.
00:56:10But when we arrived at the hospital, everything was done.
00:56:13My mother could not take it anymore.
00:56:24It was very painful.
00:56:27There are many people in the world.
00:56:29Why do women always get first place?
00:56:35You will remember all the good things she did to you.
00:56:39Even if she is gone, you will still remember her.
00:56:44Edna's teeth were cremated.
00:56:49And they were very surprised to see a piece of bone.
00:56:54The color of the bone was yellowish.
00:56:59We cut a whole bone to preserve it.
00:57:03The green bone that was found in Edna's mouth,
00:57:07they immediately made a pendant out of it.
00:57:11We put it in the middle of the bed.
00:57:14So that when we leave the house, we can always pass it.
00:57:20That is the most painful.
00:57:22That is the one without a house.
00:57:24That is the most painful.
00:57:26When it was 6 o'clock in the evening,
00:57:28they were praying at the altar at the same time,
00:57:31where they found a bowl with the green bones of their mother.
00:57:36It looks like my mother is still there.
00:57:38There is a part of her body that is still there.
00:57:43The bowl that was held by Roddy,
00:57:45was placed in a box covered with plastic,
00:57:48which was always filled with her bag.
00:57:51This is my bag.
00:57:52I bring this every day when I go to work.
00:57:55It is for her.
00:57:56It is also believed that the green bones have good luck.
00:58:01Sometimes, I sell gold.
00:58:05I borrow money from a buyer.
00:58:07I was able to help my family financially.
00:58:09We don't get broke.
00:58:11He became my lucky charm.
00:58:13There are things that he can do that are good karma.
00:58:15It's not always about money.
00:58:16It's also well known to ward off bad spirits or negative energies.
00:58:21There is a saying,
00:58:22that if a person is blessed with good karma,
00:58:24and he finds the green bones of his ancestors,
00:58:29it means that he became a good person.
00:58:32The belief about the green bones,
00:58:35and the goodness that it symbolizes,
00:58:38is the theme of the latest edition of GMA Pictures
00:58:42and GMA Public Affairs this Christmas.
00:58:45The film, Green Bones, was directed by actors Dennis Trillo and Ruru Madrid.
00:58:54I know you're hiding something.
00:59:08If you give yourself a chance,
00:59:11we can believe it.
00:59:13The question is,
00:59:15what kind of person will come out of you?
00:59:20It is rare to find green bones beside the deceased.
00:59:24But in the case of the Tigarragay in Camarines Sur,
00:59:27in Simonina,
00:59:28not just one, but two of his deceased relatives were found.
00:59:35First, when he died,
00:59:37his mother, Lulu, in 2021,
00:59:40and his father, Nestor,
00:59:42who died last year.
00:59:45They both had complications in their kidneys.
00:59:48Even though we are a Chinese family,
00:59:50we don't know anything about the green bones.
00:59:54The green bones they collected from their parents,
00:59:58they hid in their urns.
01:00:02This is where my mother's urns and green bones were placed.
01:00:09This is it.
01:00:12This is where my father's urns and green bones were placed.
01:00:19This is where his green bones were collected.
01:00:23Lulu and Mr. Nestor,
01:00:25who used to be the captain of their barangay,
01:00:27were very helpful.
01:00:30I see them when someone comes to our house,
01:00:34asking for help.
01:00:36They help each other from the inside,
01:00:38when they don't have anyone to help them.
01:00:41They are very helpful.
01:00:43They help each other.
01:00:45I see them when someone comes to our house,
01:00:48asking for help.
01:00:50They help each other from the inside,
01:00:52when they don't have anyone to help them.
01:00:54When I feel bad,
01:00:56I go to him.
01:00:58He will give us medicine.
01:01:00The couple also sent their nephew, Charles, to study.
01:01:04My father is still in triskele.
01:01:07He is still in post.
01:01:09This is the house that was given by Mr. Nestor.
01:01:13There is also an extension on the other side.
01:01:15He is a bedridden son.
01:01:17I don't want to see him like that.
01:01:19He told me,
01:01:20I'm tired.
01:01:21I want to rest.
01:01:23He held my hand.
01:01:25I felt pain.
01:01:2795, 96, 97, 98, 99.
01:01:36But there is no one perfect.
01:01:39In Nestor's last moments in the world,
01:01:41his daughter, Monina, witnessed
01:01:43how her father's illness changed her.
01:01:47Maybe because he is shy.
01:01:50Maybe he is just feeling bad.
01:02:02We always fight.
01:02:06It's sad.
01:02:08It hurts to feel
01:02:10that I didn't take good care of him.
01:02:16I was lacking.
01:02:19I didn't give him everything.
01:02:21I should have given him the same care he gave me when I was young.
01:02:27I didn't give him that.
01:02:35Even now,
01:02:36until his last moments,
01:02:38he has no other desire
01:02:40but to take care of his family.
01:02:43He only loves me.
01:02:45That's all that's on my mind.
01:02:47If you're tired,
01:02:50go ahead and rest.
01:02:52Go with your mother.
01:02:58There are fewer good people now.
01:03:03I feel sad.
01:03:05Especially when I see his picture on my phone.
01:03:16But if you look at the point of view of science,
01:03:20why do some people see green bones?
01:03:31Once the organs are burned or dissolved,
01:03:34only the bones are left.
01:03:37Operators will sift through the remaining bones.
01:03:41There might be different discolorations.
01:03:43When there are particular chemicals, compounds,
01:03:47or drugs that are incorporated or exposed to the bones,
01:03:51the bones are exposed for a lifetime.
01:03:54But in certain cases,
01:03:56for certain elements and compounds,
01:03:59they can also be exposed during the burning process.
01:04:04Meanwhile,
01:04:05to continue the advocacy of their mother,
01:04:09who is about to celebrate her birthday,
01:04:11Now, we are preparing to give candies and biscuits to the children.
01:04:24Roddy returned to Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage Parish in Tondo, Manila
01:04:30to give an early Christmas to the evacuees of Sunog Kamakailan
01:04:35and the current residents of the parish.
01:04:38The parish that Edna has been giving gifts to for years,
01:04:43is still alive.
01:04:46Happy Birthday!
01:04:59Thank you very much.
01:05:02I will not cry.
01:05:04Mama, we love you very much.
01:05:06Take care of us always,
01:05:08and always be careful wherever you are.
01:05:12The law of the world is simple.
01:05:15May you live without being trampled by anyone.
01:05:19In times of confusion,
01:05:21what is right from wrong?
01:05:23What is the lie from the truth?
01:05:26Choose,
01:05:27and let us still choose to be good people,
01:05:31even if it is not directly from the bones.
01:05:33But what you know,
01:05:34because of you,
01:05:35there are lives that will change,
01:05:38because you are willing to love.
01:05:41Love you, Mama.
01:05:42And you are willing to be kind to others.
01:05:53The wind is cold,
01:05:56but why is a house in the middle of the lagoon,
01:06:00the wind,
01:06:01getting hot?
01:06:03Happy Birthday!
01:06:06The cold wind of Christmas in the middle of the lagoon is very strong,
01:06:11except for the house of the Reyes family.
01:06:16Because their house is a hot topic here.
01:06:19Is it getting hot?
01:06:20It's getting hot.
01:06:22It's about to get hot.
01:06:23Because their roof,
01:06:25and even their ceiling,
01:06:27is mysterious.
01:06:28Is it getting hot?
01:06:30We are afraid,
01:06:31and my children will come home.
01:06:34Maybe later,
01:06:35it will explode.
01:06:36Maybe there will be a gas leak.
01:06:38It's scary.
01:06:40When they pour water on their roof,
01:06:44it smokes.
01:06:48Because it's so hot,
01:06:50they can cook.
01:06:52I broke the egg.
01:06:55I left it for half an hour,
01:06:58then I checked,
01:06:59the egg was already cooked.
01:07:02Naturally,
01:07:03they are worried about this happening.
01:07:05Maybe suddenly,
01:07:06when we go to sleep,
01:07:07it will explode.
01:07:11What is causing the heat in their house?
01:07:18The house is 5 years old,
01:07:20owned by Merwin and May.
01:07:22That land belongs to my mother,
01:07:24and my father.
01:07:25We saved some money,
01:07:26and we built a house for my wife.
01:07:30It all started early this December 2,
01:07:33when Merwin's house caught fire.
01:07:36When I knocked on the door,
01:07:38it was so hot.
01:07:40I thought there was a cat lying on the floor.
01:07:42I looked for the cat,
01:07:43but I couldn't find it.
01:07:44I got scared.
01:07:45Merwin immediately woke up his mother,
01:07:48who was already asleep.
01:07:50May, can you hear me?
01:07:51I knocked on the wall and the ceiling.
01:07:54It was so hot.
01:07:55I got scared.
01:07:57May thought
01:07:58it might be a broken electrical wiring in their house.
01:08:02Hey, let's turn it off.
01:08:03It might explode.
01:08:08But after a while,
01:08:09their ceiling was still hot.
01:08:12We couldn't sleep.
01:08:13Even their walls started to heat up.
01:08:17At first,
01:08:18it was just this part.
01:08:20Now,
01:08:21I can already feel the heat.
01:08:25When they knocked on their tiles,
01:08:28it felt like it was empty.
01:08:30After a day,
01:08:32it started to heat up even more.
01:08:34In fact,
01:08:35when they poured water on it,
01:08:38it started to smoke.
01:08:40You'd be surprised
01:08:41that only that part was dry.
01:08:44To find out how hot it was,
01:08:46they also tried to cook an egg.
01:08:49At that point,
01:08:50they put the egg there.
01:08:52The egg was cooked.
01:08:56Because of the heat
01:08:58in the house of the family,
01:09:00Merwin and May
01:09:01decided to take off their clothes.
01:09:03We didn't take anything with us.
01:09:05We just took a short break
01:09:07with my mother.
01:09:09While it was still hot,
01:09:12while the hot news
01:09:14about what was happening
01:09:16in their house
01:09:17was spreading like wildfire
01:09:19in their barangay.
01:09:20We were scared.
01:09:22My children were coming home.
01:09:24What if it spreads?
01:09:26What if the gas station is on fire?
01:09:29It was scary.
01:09:30The heat of the wall
01:09:32was hidden outside Merwin's house.
01:09:34So,
01:09:35they asked for help
01:09:37from the city engineer's office.
01:09:39We went there
01:09:41and thought it was faulty wiring.
01:09:42But it turned out
01:09:44that it wasn't.
01:09:46Our wiring was on top.
01:09:48The expert said
01:09:50that our electricity was okay.
01:09:54Because of this,
01:09:55they moved again.
01:09:57It's okay now.
01:09:58It's not like before.
01:10:00It was really hot.
01:10:02But what was the reason
01:10:04for the heat
01:10:05and smoke in their house?
01:10:07It was on the floor.
01:10:08It wasn't on the electricity.
01:10:10I was also thinking
01:10:12that it might be geothermal.
01:10:14Geothermal?
01:10:16It's possible that
01:10:17one of the pipes
01:10:18needs to be measured
01:10:20to know
01:10:21what caused
01:10:23the hot smoke.
01:10:25Next,
01:10:26and to test
01:10:27how hot the wall is,
01:10:29they used a thermal camera.
01:10:32It's about 14-15 degrees.
01:10:34We have
01:10:35suspected thermal anomalies here.
01:10:37It might explode
01:10:38and hit us.
01:10:40There are kids here.
01:10:42Why did this happen?
01:10:43If we sleep,
01:10:45it might explode.
01:10:46It's dangerous.
01:10:48It's dangerous.
01:10:49The explosive answers
01:10:52will be revealed
01:10:53when we come back.
01:10:55It's okay now.
01:10:56It's deep.
01:10:59Even if the wind is getting colder,
01:11:02the incidents in the house
01:11:04of Merwin and May
01:11:05in Calawan, Laguna
01:11:07are getting hotter and hotter.
01:11:10Their house is burning
01:11:12and it's mysteriously hot.
01:11:18It's deep.
01:11:19It's deep.
01:11:20It might explode.
01:11:24To measure
01:11:25how high
01:11:26the temperature
01:11:27of the house and the wall is,
01:11:29it was measured
01:11:30by a thermographer,
01:11:31Aaron,
01:11:32using a thermal camera.
01:11:34We can see
01:11:35in the video
01:11:36of the thermal imager
01:11:37that it's hitting
01:11:38a certain point here.
01:11:40It's about 40-50 degrees.
01:11:42We can say
01:11:43that there's thermal activity
01:11:45below the ground.
01:11:46It's possible
01:11:47that there's a well
01:11:48at the bottom
01:11:49that's steaming.
01:11:52Since it doesn't go up
01:11:54to 60,
01:11:5580,
01:11:56up to 100,
01:11:57the temperature
01:11:58is only 40 degrees.
01:12:00But it's a potential hazard.
01:12:02If there's an excessive heat
01:12:04in the area,
01:12:05it's possible
01:12:06that the tiles will crack
01:12:07and the foundation will weaken.
01:12:08Plus,
01:12:09the moisture in the area
01:12:10will increase
01:12:11and it can be damaged.
01:12:12I'm also thinking
01:12:14that it might be geothermal.
01:12:16But is there a basis
01:12:18for this theory of the couple?
01:12:20In our investigation,
01:12:22our team found out
01:12:23that Mervyn's house
01:12:25is close to hot springs.
01:12:29In fact,
01:12:30only 20 minutes
01:12:31from Mervyn's house,
01:12:33there's a hot spring.
01:12:36The reading of the water temperature
01:12:38is 44 degrees.
01:12:40It's possible
01:12:41that there's a source of water
01:12:43at the bottom
01:12:44that's hot.
01:12:47There's a geothermal power plant
01:12:49near the site,
01:12:50Makiling Banahaw Geothermal Power Plant.
01:12:53Kalawan
01:12:54and other municipalities
01:12:56are surrounded
01:12:57by inactive volcanoes.
01:12:59There are remnant heat
01:13:01that's released
01:13:02from the solidification
01:13:04of molten materials
01:13:06at the bottom.
01:13:08A clear manifestation
01:13:10of this on the surface
01:13:11is the presence
01:13:12of many hot springs
01:13:14in which Laguna is famous for.
01:13:16For now,
01:13:17we don't have a law
01:13:18to regulate
01:13:19the construction of houses
01:13:21near natural hot springs.
01:13:23But is there anything
01:13:25that should worry Mervyn?
01:13:27It's not necessary
01:13:28to evacuate.
01:13:29It's not harmful.
01:13:30The study
01:13:31that's being done
01:13:32at the site is ongoing.
01:13:34For now,
01:13:35the nearby residents
01:13:36shouldn't be alarmed,
01:13:38especially if
01:13:39what we're looking at
01:13:42is volcanic eruption.
01:13:44And it's not a bad thing
01:13:46if they would think
01:13:48of doing relocation
01:13:50for their peace of mind.
01:13:52I hope that your houses
01:13:55this Christmas
01:13:57will not only be filled
01:13:58with the warmth of love,
01:14:00but above all,
01:14:02will be safe.
