00:00It's almost half a million that are printing ballots for the election 2025.
00:19That's the latest data from the Commission on Elections as of 7 p.m. last night
00:24since the start of printing last Monday.
00:28That's only 13% of the more than 72 million ballots needed for the election.
00:35That means there are still more than 62 million ballots to be printed.
00:40Comelec said earlier that their target is to print 1.5 million ballots per day
00:46so that they can reach their target deadline on April 14.
00:51A few Chinese vessels were still sighted in the Philippine Ocean this weekend.
00:57Philippine Coast Guard continues to search for them,
01:00including the monster ship of China that is in Zambales.
01:03Here's the latest from Jonathan Andal.
01:0834 nautical miles or almost 63 kilometers from the town of Bolinao, Pangasinan,
01:15this is how close the vessels 3104 and 3301 of the China Coast Guard were sighted.
01:22The Philippine Coast Guard immediately flew their islander aircraft and tried to track down the Chinese.
01:37The ship of the China Coast Guard did not respond.
01:40The Philippine Coast Guard sent BRP Cabra and BRP Bagacay.
01:44China is now making illegal patrols inside the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
01:51You are inside in the Philippines.
01:53The PCG will be professional and careful to avoid bringing tension to the occupied territory.
02:00Aside from the two ships in Pangasinan,
02:03the vessel 5901 or the so-called monster ship of the CCG is still in our Exclusive Economic Zone.
02:12It returned to the waters of Zambales.
02:15It is 110 nautical miles away from the town.
02:19BRP Teresa Magbanwa tried to track it down based on the 2016 Arbitral Award.
02:25China Coast Guard Vessel 5901.
02:28This is Philippine Coast Guard Vessel BRP Teresa Magbanwa.
02:32You are advised that you are currently sailing within the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
02:37But according to China, it does not recognize the Arbitration Award.
02:54The monster ship of China returned to the China Coast Guard Vessel 3304.
02:59According to the PCG, it was brought away from Zambales.
03:03We are still trying to get the reaction of its Chinese embassy.
03:07Here is the first news. Jonathan Andal for GMA Integrated News.
03:12The Department of Agriculture is expecting the National Food Emergency to be implemented to lower the price of rice.
03:20According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chu Laurel Jr.,
03:23they have received the recommendation of the National Price Coordinating Council.
03:28In order to implement the rice emergency, the National Food Authority will allow the release of their rice buffer stock.
03:36The NFA will also allow the purchase of rice directly from the farmers.
03:42The plan is to sell rice for Php 36 per kilo to LGUs.
03:47It will be sold to the public for Php 38 per kilo.
03:53The price of eggs has increased due to the decrease in supply.
03:58Let's check the price before you add to cart.
04:01Live from the Blue Mantate Market in Manila, here is the first news. Bam Alegre.
04:06Bam, how is the price of eggs?
04:11Maris, good morning. Here at the Blue Mantate Market, the price of eggs is slowly increasing.
04:18Thank you, God.
04:20Jefferson Santos goes to the Blue Mantate Market in Manila early in the morning to buy eggs.
04:26He has an egg stall in Pritil, Tondo.
04:29The price of eggs is high.
04:33Before, he could sell a tray for Php 210. Now, it's Php 240.
04:39Everyone is wondering why the price of eggs is so high.
04:44If there's nothing to do, we'll just sit here and wait.
04:50One of the wholesalers of Blue Mantate, Florian Padilla, has also increased the price.
04:54In a case of Php 1,900, they were selling eggs for Php 2,000.
04:59Now, the price has increased.
05:03Yes, the supply is low.
05:05Our suppliers are worried.
05:09That's why they're saying that the supply is low.
05:13According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chula Aurel Jr.,
05:16there's a bird flu outbreak in America that is causing the price to rise in the world market.
05:21Millions of chickens need to be culled or killed to stop the spread of the disease.
05:25Here in the Philippines, the Department of Agriculture is trying to stabilize the price of eggs.
05:30There's no shortage of eggs now, but without the DA, it's possible that there will be in April.
05:34The solution is to speed up the import of eggs and to get approval from the Food and Drug Administration
05:40for an Avian Influenza vaccine.
05:43According to the Philippine Egg Board Association,
05:45the country's supply is sufficient until April and May because of the production from farms.
05:49They have no reason to have a shortage of eggs.
06:01Maris, if you're fond of scrambled eggs or sunny-side-up,
06:04you will get a supply of eggs because the rate is wholesale.
06:08So it's really cheaper.
06:10They also bought some vegetables this morning.
06:13This is the first news here in Manila.
06:15Bamalagre for GMA Integrated News.
06:18Meanwhile, the Special Action and Intelligence Committee will conduct Operation Contra-Colorum
06:23in the province of Bulacan this morning.
06:25Is there a spy?
06:27Let's find out in the first live news of James Agustin.
06:30James.
06:35Good morning.
06:36Three private cars that were caught by SAIC in their operation,
06:40will be here this morning in the province of Bulacan.
06:44The Special Action and Intelligence Committee of the Transportation Department
06:47locked a car.
06:48It has three passengers heading to Pasay.
06:51The driver said that the passengers are his relatives.
06:54But when SAIC verified that they don't know each other,
06:58the next thing they did was to lock an AUV with six passengers
07:01that will be transported to MRT North Avenue.
07:04The driver said that he only accompanied his colleagues and he's not a Coloru.
07:08Third, a car that has three passengers was caught.
07:12According to SAIC, the drivers are being fined P100
07:15for driving passengers from Bulacan to Metro Manila.
07:19The last cars will be impounded.
07:22Meanwhile, the fine is P120,000 for the last cars,
07:27while for the AUVs, it will reach P200,000.
07:31That's the first news.
07:32From here in Bulacan, I'm James Agustin for Gemma Integrated News.
07:38Aside from debt and interest,
07:40there are additional problems of some people who borrowed from online lending applications.
07:44There's no end to the harassment and threats of collectors.
07:48Some are already paid but they are forced to borrow again.
07:52Paok's investigation shows that some operators of online lending applications
07:56came from Pogo.
07:58Salima Refrat has the first news.
08:03I will be beheaded.
08:05I will not go out because I will be shot.
08:08I will be beaten.
08:10My whole family will be killed.
08:14Floor faced severe threats and threats.
08:18She did not realize that she will not be paid for borrowing from online lending applications.
08:23I thought that everything will be over.
08:25But I thought about my child's well-being.
08:28They need me more.
08:30They need their mother more.
08:32What's worse is that they became lovers.
08:35Along with the harassers.
08:37Our family will be harassed.
08:40They are making pornographic material of our children.
08:44Even your grandparents.
08:46They will edit their faces.
08:48And where they will post it.
08:50What's worse is that they will post it on the website.
08:53Even those who have good credit and good payer.
08:57They are forced to borrow again.
09:00When I borrow, even if I don't want it anymore,
09:03they harass me for borrowing.
09:05It's P15,000 when they borrow from me.
09:08I only received P7,000.
09:10If I return it within a second,
09:12I need to return the P15,000.
09:14Every day, I call them.
09:16Starting from 6 a.m., every five minutes,
09:19I call them.
09:20Different numbers, different texts.
09:22The more instant they give you,
09:26the bigger the sacrifice.
09:28You will drown.
09:30Because their interest is 40 to 50 percent.
09:33Aside from their interest,
09:35they also have hidden charges, penalties.
09:38So instead of being able to repay your loan,
09:41which you didn't get in full,
09:43you will drown in interest and penalties.
09:50That's why NBI and PAOC discussed
09:52the two online lending applications in Makati
09:55with the visa of Sir Chuarat.
09:57They also submitted scripts to computers
10:00to ask for loans and borrow money.
10:06Many have committed suicide,
10:09have lost their lives,
10:11have depression.
10:12How many clients do you harass every day?
10:14100 plus.
10:16How do you harass or harass them?
10:18Reminders so that they can advance.
10:23Are you the one who is also scared
10:25and is afraid of those who steal from you?
10:27No.
10:28We are not like that, ma'am.
10:30131 Filipinos were investigated
10:33by NBI and PAOC
10:35in the raid on online lending applications
10:38last week.
10:39But only 117 will be faced
10:42with complaints of violation of the Data Privacy Act.
10:46That is because there are those who turned
10:48and chose to be witnesses.
10:50We have witnesses,
10:53those who were convinced by the workers
10:55to witness against the company.
10:57In their opinion,
10:58there are those who are doing wrong things to the company
11:01because of the harassment and terrorism
11:04that they do to those who borrow money.
11:07In PAOC's investigation
11:09on online lending applications,
11:11some operators in Pugo
11:13are now prohibited from doing so.
11:16They saw this during a raid
11:18on an online lending company in Makati
11:20in October 2023.
11:22This is also big.
11:23If you combine all of this,
11:25maybe this is worth billions.
11:27What they earn from this.
11:29What's heavy here is that
11:31they earn from the blood and sweat
11:35of our countrymen.
11:37We really established that
11:39this is not only locally,
11:42but internationally,
11:44their operation.
11:45What we see here is that
11:46the Chinese are also running.
11:48What's new is that
11:49the employees are Filipinos.
11:52What's saddening here
11:54is that Filipinos are being fooled here.
11:57And the ones who are being fooled,
11:59the ones who are harassing,
12:01the ones who are causing internal pain,
12:05are also Filipinos.
12:07And this is what's making them run,
12:10making the operation run,
12:11are the Chinese or foreign nationals
12:14who are serving as the bosses
12:16of this loan application.
12:19The SEC, or Securities and Exchange Commission,
12:23to financial lending instruments
12:25like online lending applications
12:27or platforms.
12:28Since 2023,
12:30almost 24,000 complaints
12:32about unfair debt collection
12:34of loans have been received.
12:36But only more than 300
12:38formalized their complaints.
12:40There are cases filed by the SEC in the fiscal year
12:44against corporations
12:45holding loans.
12:48In SEC Circular 2019-18,
12:51the prohibited debt collection practices were laid out,
12:55such as embezzlement,
12:57blackmailing,
12:58and information theft.
13:00Permission to access gallery,
13:03contacts, cameras,
13:05microphones,
13:06those are really prohibited.
13:08We officially write our partners
13:11and request for removal.
13:14Monetary penalty,
13:15suspension, revocation after the due process.
13:18This is the first news.

15:41Just because there's anonymity online,
