00:00I hope the search warrants of the police will just let the rescue operations happen.
00:10After a man in America was trapped inside a chimney.
00:14The authorities broke the wall to help him get out.
00:19But after he was brought to the hospital, he was arrested immediately.
00:26Mary Jane Velozo will not be able to return to the Philippines.
00:31Before that, her parents and children will travel to Indonesia to see her again.
00:36After 14 years, Bona Kino was arrested.
00:43The long-awaited day of Mary Jane Velozo's family has arrived.
00:47They are busy preparing their belongings.
00:50They will travel to Indonesia for their reunion in a few hours.
00:55Ma, for a long time, you've been telling me to trust God.
01:04I couldn't sleep last night because I was thinking about it.
01:08I hope we can go together.
01:12Tomorrow, the parents of Mary Jane and her two children and two lawyers will travel to Indonesia
01:18to visit her until December 18.
01:21They will also be accompanied by several officials of the Department of Foreign Affairs,
01:25a chairperson of the group of migrants.
01:27To thank the support of Mary Jane,
01:30all those who supported her there, and the president there,
01:35we thank him.
01:39Mary Jane asked them to bring pastillas to give to her friends in prison.
01:46She also requested to decorate her room in Nueva Ecija.
01:50According to Agence France-Presse,
01:52it is possible for Mary Jane to return home on December 20,
01:55according to Indonesia's senior law and human rights minister.
01:59According to Mary Jane's lawyer,
02:01it is best to visit her before returning home to explain her expectations
02:06and the implication of her return home in the case filed against her recruiter.
02:11Mary Jane will return home in the Philippines.
02:13She will face the court.
02:15The only evidence is her testimony
02:18because she is the one who is complaining against the illegal recruiter.
02:22In Quezon City, a send-off solidarity program was organized by a group of migrants
02:27to call for the giving of chemical weapons to Mary Jane.
02:30I am very happy because up until now,
02:33the migrants are there to support us.
02:37In Mary Jane's new photos,
02:39which were first interviewed by Agence France-Presse,
02:42there is a smile on her face.
02:44According to Mary Jane,
02:46her return home in the Philippines is a miracle.
02:50God heard her constant prayer that she will be able to return home.
02:54She needs to prepare her mind to face everything.
02:58For GMA Integrated News,
03:00Von Aquino reporting for 24 Hours.
03:03Full of colors and happiness,
03:05that is the Filipino Christmas.
03:07But there are some of our countrymen who do not feel the Christmas spirit
03:11because they miss something.
03:13He is talking about Niko Wahe.
03:20This year, 2024,
03:22do Filipinos still feel the Christmas spirit?
03:25For me, no longer.
03:27Yes, even if it is hard.
03:29Yes, but it is not like before.
03:33Among those we talked to,
03:35there are more who say that they do not feel the Christmas spirit.
03:39The reason is,
03:41they do not do or do not spend Christmas together.
03:46Mary Joy, a single parent,
03:48has already kissed her daughter's banding in Buanga del Sur,
03:52that she has not spent Christmas with.
03:55We were taking a bath,
03:56we were having a picnic with my daughter,
03:58but I could not hold her.
03:59I asked her what gift she wanted.
04:01She said, just go home, Mama.
04:03Jojo, on the other hand,
04:05is thankful that he has children
04:07who remind him that Christmas is really for children.
04:11Based on my experience when I was young,
04:15I also want my children to have experience
04:17so that they do not lose the heart of Christmas,
04:21the spirit of Christmas.
04:23In Jojo's opinion,
04:25it is possible that the feels of Christmas did not change,
04:28but our priorities and responsibilities changed.
04:32That is also what a psychologist said.
04:35We have a lot of responsibilities,
04:38we get stressed easily,
04:40we have a lot of experiences,
04:42and actually, those experiences,
04:45it affects how we see the world,
04:48how we celebrate wonderful occasions like Christmas.
04:53Another reason is,
04:55we have more expectations.
04:57Our youth also has an influence on this.
05:00When we were young,
05:02when we say Christmas, it's so magical.
05:06But as adults,
05:08we now know the difference between what reality is and fantasy.
05:12We even try to replicate that feeling of happiness.
05:17So we continue having Christmas parties,
05:20exchange gifts.
05:22But how can we feel the Christmas spirit
05:25despite all our experiences?
05:28Maybe the secret is,
05:30let's not forget the child in us.
05:32As grown-ups,
05:34we forget the heart of being a child.
05:38Let's keep that in our heart,
05:41the child in us.
05:43For GMA Integrated News,
05:45I'm Nico Juahe,
05:46for Tutok 24 Hours.

05:58and suffered a fracture.
06:00He was hospitalized for a few days.
06:02The dog was in a wheelchair.
06:04The barangay investigated
06:06that the rider was drunk
06:08and the dog was missing.
06:11The rider and the owner of the dog
06:13filed a case for financial assistance
06:16for his treatment.
06:18In votes 204 to 205,
06:22South Korean Parliament
06:24impeached President Yun Seok-yool
06:26for violating martial law in Korea.
06:30This is the second impeachment motion

06:36while the Constitutional Court
06:38discussed the result of the vote.
06:40They have 180 days
06:42to pass this.
06:44Before the vote,
06:46on both sides,
06:48hundreds of thousands of people
06:50voted for Seoul
06:52as a support to the leader.
06:54Yun promised that
06:56he will continue to fight
06:58and the opposition
07:00that they are controlling
07:02the communists against the country.
07:04The former minister,
07:06Han Deok-su,
07:08is now the interim leader of the country.
07:14Good day, my fellow countrymen.
07:16I am your brother, Kim,
07:18and I am the media behind the trending news.
07:20For those who are looking for
07:22a place to vacation,

07:26Let's go to the first
07:28biodome in the country.
07:30But wait, what is a biodome?
07:32From the outside,
07:34it looks like an egg or dome structure.
07:36But it is more expensive
07:38if it is your home.
07:40You can see our rich nature here.
07:42There are plants,
07:44animal exhibits,
07:46and wildlife.
07:48This structure is called a biodome.
07:50It is the first and only biodome in the country.
07:52It is the Philippine biodome
07:54located in Manila Ocean Park.

07:58and innovation come together.
08:00It showcases a diverse flora and fauna
08:02and biodiversity,
08:04promoting conservation,
08:06educational, and enjoyment for everyone.

08:12self-sustaining environment.
08:14It is an ecosystem created by humans.
08:16It has different organisms,
08:18such as animals, plants, and fungi.
08:20Biodomes are like natural ecosystems
08:22of nature.
08:24It protects the natural resources.
08:26Here, we can also learn
08:28the importance of biodiversity
08:30and conservation of nature.

08:56it is important to know.
08:58I am Kuya Kim, and I will answer you 24 hours.
09:00Christmas is coming,
09:02so it is hard
09:04to book a car
09:06for a commuter.
09:08That's why some people
09:10prefer to ride in the color rooms.
09:12Niko Wahe is in touch.
09:16Erickson is on his way
09:18to a clinic in Ortigas
09:20at 3 p.m.
09:22He is from Tondo, Manila.
09:24And because he knows that there is a lot of traffic,
09:26motorcycle is his first choice of transportation.
09:28He is using two motorcycle taxi apps
09:30but no one is accepting.
09:32TNVS car is not an option
09:34because the fare
09:36is equivalent to his daily salary.
09:38It is hard to book
09:40because of the traffic.
09:42Sometimes,
09:44they just add or cancel.
09:46There was a time
09:48when he was typing
09:50on his cell phone for an hour
09:52but still nothing.
09:54He discarded it.
09:56I joined a Facebook group
09:58of passengers and riders.
10:00I posted
10:02pick-up point and drop-off point
10:04and how much I will give.
10:06He knows that there is a color room here
10:08but what is his choice?
10:10In Alexis,
10:12there is a lot of traffic during Christmas.
10:14Sometimes,
10:16he travels for more than 2 hours
10:18to Commonwealth Avenue
10:20to Del Monte, Bulacan.
10:22He also uses motorcycle taxi
10:24when there is a short travel in NCR area.
10:26It takes too long.
10:28I don't know. They are already contracting.
10:30I don't know what is happening.
10:32It was first mentioned in the Senate
10:34that it is hard to book
10:36in TNVS.
10:38We are still trying to get the permission
10:40of LTFRB and the commuters.
10:42But they already announced
10:44that they approved the special permit
10:46of 5,000 units of TNVS.
10:48Starting tomorrow,
10:50December 15, the application will be opened
10:52for the special permit of PUVs.
10:54Despite the difficulty of commuting,
10:56LTFRB reminded
10:58to report the transportation
11:00that is too expensive.
