00:00The fires in San Juan, Caloocan, and Navotas last night and this morning are saddening.
00:08Be extra careful, especially when it comes to cooking, which is one of the main reasons for the fire.
00:13This December, Bernadette Reyes caught fire.
00:21The people of this warehouse were still asleep when the fire broke out at 6.40 a.m. this morning in San Rafael Village, Navotas.
00:28When the fire was extinguished, the firewood, tomatoes, and garlic were burnt.
00:33I asked the firemen, they said it was up there, but I think the fire was down here, where they were sleeping.
00:42I heard something exploding, I thought someone was going to blow it up.
00:47Then my brother came out, the fire was so big, it was about to explode.
00:52Within an hour, the Bureau of Fire Protection immediately declared a fire in a warehouse here in San Rafael Village, Navotas.
01:01Within that short period of time, the fruit vendors were immediately hit, according to the employees, equivalent to a container van.
01:09It's not just because it's easy to kill fruits, you need to be killed right away.
01:17That's why we're overrolling it now, so that we don't have to spread fire.
01:25A fire also broke out in Tatampal Ali in Barangay 18, Caloocan, around midday earlier.
01:32The fire was immediately extinguished.
01:34The 84-year-old woman, who owns a house, was saved.
01:38Christmas is also a good time to burn in Barangay Bati in San Juan.
01:43I don't have a house anymore.
01:52I don't have anything to use.
01:55I don't have money.
01:57I left home to save what I could use on the second floor.
02:01But I climbed up the stairs, I couldn't do it because the smoke was so thick.
02:05I felt like I was going to get hurt, so I backed off.
02:08I didn't know what to do.
02:09It's raining now, it's a hindrance to the operation.
02:13It's crazy and a lot of people are staying inside.
02:19Of course, when people go out, the firemen will go in.
02:23The fire is still being investigated, but the owner of the house who was affected by the fire said...
02:28He's a little sad.
02:29I bought electrical wiring.
02:31He hasn't maintained the electrical system of the house for a long time.
02:36Based on the information gathered by the GMA News Research,
02:40from December 1 to Christmas, the number of fires in the country reached 756.
02:47Although it is lower compared to the same time last year,
02:51it is still alive.
02:53Aside from the frequent occurrence of fires,
02:55due to the cooking and loose connection that led to the fire of the power line,
03:01the same is also the case with the fire.
03:03For the GMA Integrated News,
03:05Bernadette Reyes, there were 24 fires.
03:09There are more fires as the new year approaches.
03:13Boga is already number one in the markets,
03:16so the online tutorials on how to do it are closely monitored.
03:21June Veneracion caught fire.
03:26The two children were caught firing improvised boga in Manila.
03:31They were arrested by a resident and told by the barangay.
03:35According to the children, they learned how to make boga on TikTok.
03:40Because of this, PNP is encouraging cyber patrolling
03:44to find out who are the people behind the tutorial videos
03:48on how to make prohibited boga that are now spreading on social media.
03:52To those who are posting these videos,
03:56we want to warn everyone that you will face heavy cases
04:00because it has been prohibited for a long time.
04:03In the latest monitoring of the Department of Health,
04:05as of December 25,
04:06the number one cause of firecracker-related injuries is boga,
04:10which is up to 47.
04:12Improvised boga can cause eye injuries, blisters,
04:18burns to the skin and wounds to various parts of the body
04:21that can lead to amputation.
04:23That is why PNP is encouraging people to stop using it.
04:28We are reminding our parents to monitor and supervise our children.
04:34Don't allow them to use boga because it can result in their blindness.
04:42In the province of Rizal, 400 boga were destroyed by the police.
04:47It is said that PNP's operation will not stop here
04:49against the infamous improvised firecrackers.
04:52PNP-ACG has already arrested two people for the entrapment operation.
04:55It is said that suspects of illegal firecrackers like King Kong and Tuna
05:00are selling their products online.
05:03The reason why they did this is for their tuition.
05:10The total amount of confiscated items is Php6,900.
05:18For GMA Integrated News, June Vanara Show is on for 24 hours.
05:23Let's move to Boracay, where the party is over.
05:27It's a chill Christmas.
05:28Those who are enjoying it now are being spoiled.
05:30But they haven't forgotten the true glory of Christmas.
05:33Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV is on.
05:38Emil, it's not uncommon for tourists to come to Boracay
05:42to enjoy their vacation this Christmas.
05:50Even if the sky is cloudy,
05:52people in Boracay continue to swim and enjoy the water activities.
05:57It's for the whole family to enjoy.
06:00It's for the whole family to enjoy.
06:03It's for the whole family to enjoy.
06:05I saw that the kids are happy.
06:07I just took a trip.
06:08I saw that it's clean.
06:10They didn't cancel any water activities,
06:12but the Coast Guard of Boracay strictly followed the rules.
06:16As of now, we don't have a suspension of water activities.
06:19Now, because the waves are getting stronger here in our area,
06:25the Coast Guard is issuing a Sea Travel Advisory.
06:28It's a chill Christmas.
06:30After the night activities in Visperas,
06:33like the fire dancing,
06:46there are a lot of people at the beachfront.
06:48It's okay because we're used to it at night.
06:51We'll just enjoy it because we'll only be here in Boracay for three days.
06:55But of course,
06:56Christmas is all about Jesus.
06:59I thought it was important during our vacation
07:02to come here and worship and do Simbang Gabi.
07:06Generally, the assessment of the police is that the Christmas is peaceful here on the island.
07:16According to the Malay Tourism Office,
07:19there are almost 131,000 tourist arrivals in Boracay
07:23from December 1 to 23.
07:26That's the latest, Emil.
07:27Merry Christmas!
07:28Thank you and Merry Christmas,
07:30Kim Salinas of GMA Regional TV.
07:34Let's take a look at the situation in Tagaytay,
07:37where there are a lot of people.
07:39There are a lot of people.
07:41There are a lot of people.
07:43There are a lot of people.
07:45Let's take a look at the situation in Tagaytay,
07:48where there are a lot of people because of the rain.
07:52Ian Wu is live there.
07:54Ian!
07:58Mel, because of the rain,
08:00the number of tourists who came to Tagaytay is less
08:03compared to those who came during Christmas.
08:06But for those who came here,
08:08even if they didn't complete their plan to worship,
08:12their family and loved ones are enough this Christmas.
08:20Unlike the past few days,
08:22the traffic in Tagaytay is not as busy this Christmas.
08:26It's raining but there are tourists,
08:29including the riders who went on a road trip or came back here.
08:32Because there's no rain,
08:34it's like a celebration.
08:36Meanwhile, Teng's family
08:38didn't continue their visit to People's Park in the Sky.
08:43We didn't go inside because of the strong wind and rain.
08:46Then we saw the sign that said,
08:49we'll pay 50 pesos.
08:51We agreed.
08:52Brother Percy is hoping that he'll be able to sell a lot of rice
08:57just like those who came during Christmas.
09:01It's sad that there are not a lot of people visiting.
09:05Of course, sir.
09:06We were hoping that there will be a lot of people.
09:09Because it's cold and rainy,
09:11Tagaytay is very busy.
09:13That's why in Dinarayong Picnic Grove,
09:15you can't see the view of Taal Lake and Taal Volcano.
09:20But those who came here earlier are still happy
09:24even if they didn't complete their plan to worship.
09:27We can't see Taal because it's foggy.
09:31It's fun because our family is here.
09:35We were hoping that we can see the Taal.
09:38It's overlooking, right?
09:40And the fog is thick.
09:43As the rain stopped at 4 p.m.,
09:46the view of Taal Lake and Taal Volcano was already seen.
09:51Some people came to take pictures.
09:56Others came here last night for Noche Buena
10:00when it's colder.
10:01The hot soup of Dinarayong Bulalo is perfect for that.
10:06Bulalo of Tagaytay is very famous.
10:10It's delicious.
10:12Especially the tawilis.
10:15Depressed tawilis.
10:16But for those who serve bulalo,
10:18it's also different in Nipis ng Parokyano this Christmas
10:22compared to the previous Christmas.
10:25The queue outside is until 1 a.m.
10:34Now, it's raining less.
10:42The temperature here in Tagaytay is 21 to 23 degrees Celsius.
10:49It's expected that as the night gets deeper,
10:52the temperature here in Tagaytay will get colder.
10:57Merry Christmas from our team here in Tagaytay, Mel.
11:01Thank you very much.
11:02And Merry Christmas, Ian Cruz.
11:05Those who came to a theme park in Marikina
11:08still insisted on walking even though some rides are closed.
11:12J.P. Soriano was live there.
11:15J.P.
11:17Vickie, the weather is still gloomy here in Marikina City
11:22but the feelings of the people of Marikina can't be denied.
11:25They've been waiting for rides for a long time
11:27that can't be continued because it's raining.
11:29But yesterday, they were happy to celebrate Christmas 2024.
11:40Because it's raining,
11:41many rides can't be operated here in this theme park in Marikina.
11:46It's still Christmas, so many people want to walk.
11:49Young people are excited to ride ferris wheel, hangover, and other exciting rides.
11:58But will Christmas be stopped?
12:00They can still play in their booths
12:03or
12:04get scared in a viral horror attraction.
12:12Halloween Yarn?
12:13I was shocked when I saw it.
12:17We've been here for a long time in Marikina
12:19and every Christmas, we come here to do banding.
12:24Merry Christmas!
12:28Banding is really bad when it's raining
12:30but Ivan is in a good mood.
12:33He got 800 pesos for his banding.
12:39But Ivan is a good boy
12:41because of his banding.
12:44I gave 500 pesos to my mom
12:47and I got 300 pesos.
12:48Oh, wait a minute!
12:50What are you going to do with your 300 pesos?
12:52We ate a burger earlier.
12:56Oh, and I also ate ice cream.
12:58Other kids in Marikina are also generous
13:01like Sian
13:02who bought clothes for her sister, Mika.
13:06Why did you pay for it?
13:08It's free.
13:10It's free because it's Christmas?
13:13Yes.
13:14Thank you, dad.
13:17It's free.
13:19It's free.
13:22We also give it to our neighbors.
13:25We give it to those who are fasting.
13:28Other kids didn't go on rides,
13:30they just went on a food trip.
13:32Merry Christmas!
13:37While the kids are sleeping,
13:39the parents are sitting in the status of Marikina River
13:43which is slowly rising because of the rain.
13:46It also flooded a few times this year
13:49because of the following typhoons.
13:51But the people of Marikina said,
13:54Just fight.
13:56Fight as long as there's life and hope.
14:04Oh, Vicky and Kapuso,
14:05it seems like there's no entrance tomorrow
14:07because the people of Marikina keep coming here.
14:09Earlier, the people behind us were still shouting
14:12because the rides there are really tiring.
14:14And it's open until early morning.
14:16But if a lot of people come,
14:18it's still open until 2 a.m.
14:20And that's the latest.
14:21Merry Christmas to you, Vicky and Kapuso.
14:23Thank you very much.
14:24And Merry Christmas to you, JP Soriano.
14:31Despite the following typhoons this year,
14:34a lot of people are still thankful
14:37for their complete family this Christmas.
14:40And because Christmas is for the kids,
14:43they were given the GMA Kapuso Foundation
14:47in Minalabak, Camarines Sur.
14:54Bare Months is just around the corner.
14:57Merry put the Christmas decors
15:00in their house in Minalabak, Camarines Sur.
15:04It's a simple way for the kids to be happy.
15:08But the colorful decorations
15:11wrapped in white
15:13after their house was flooded
15:17last October
15:19because of the Christine typhoon.
15:21They also learned six lessons
15:23that remained in the roof of their house.
15:26We have nothing to do.
15:27You can't move there
15:29because the water level is high.
15:31It's like you're awake.
15:34It's like you're lost.
15:36I just said,
15:37let's just pray to the Lord
15:39that we can get through this.
15:41I'm also scared.
15:43That's why I'm just walking slowly
15:45because I might fall down
15:48on our roof.
15:50Despite the trials,
15:52Merry is still full of gratitude
15:55because her family is safe and complete
15:58this Christmas.
16:00Even if that happened,
16:02it's just a tool.
16:04It will change as long as you're whole.
16:06Your children are alive.
16:08Even if the days were hard,
16:12you're still whole.
16:14As a Christmas gift,
16:16we gave a gift bag
16:18to more than 800 children
16:20from Minalabak
16:22who were severely affected by the typhoon
16:24as well as Merry's children.
16:26Thank you very much
16:28to the GMA Kapuso Foundation
16:30for all the help you gave us.
16:32It's a simple gift
16:34to light up your Christmas.
16:36What's important
16:38is that the family is complete.
16:40And let's not forget
16:42the reason for this celebration,
16:44the birth of Jesus Christ.
