00:00As part of the implementation of the maximum SRP for pork and the rollout of NFA rice here in Metro Manila,

00:06let's talk to the Department of Agriculture Assistant Secretary, Arnel De Mesa.

00:10Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.

00:14Hi, Raffy. Good morning to all of our listeners.

00:17Yes, now that the maximum SRP for pork will not be implemented for the next two weeks,

00:22how much should the pork be able to be bought in the market?

00:27The price did not go down,

00:30but when talking to the consultations of most stakeholders of the ag industry,

00:35they agreed on two things.

00:38First, the price of pork should really be lowered.

00:42Second, the production of pork in our country should be increased.

00:49The supply is sufficient.

00:51What is the reason for the high price of pork?

00:55One of the discussions, Raffy, is that the cost structure will return from the producers,

01:03travelers, traders, and retailers.

01:07Even though we gave initial estimates,

01:11for example, in production, it is at Php 180,000 to Php 100,000,

01:16and then their farm gate is at Php 250,000.

01:19I will look at how far the price of the farm gate can be reasonable.

01:25The same goes for the traveler.

01:27How much is the cost in retail?

01:30So that I can see what is the price that will be okay for everyone.

01:36Aside from what you mentioned, is the supply and flow of demand still followed in this discussion?

01:40Is there a big demand?

01:42Is that why the price of pork is increasing?

01:46Raffy, in terms of our supply,

01:49even though we had the effect of ESF last quarter,

01:55our import is also good.

01:58So we don't have a problem with the supply.

02:01Our demand meets our supply.

02:05You mentioned the importation of pork.

02:08Some are selling pork.

02:10Bigger customers are choosing imported meat over new pork.

02:16What can you say about that?

02:18It depends, Raffy.

02:20Of course, some people like pork cut like this.

02:25But mostly, what we talked about in the consultation,

02:29our buyers, especially in the wet markets,

02:31prefer new pork.

02:35Let's talk about rice.

02:38From the NFA warehouses that are being sold to LGUs,

02:41is there a limit on what our countrymen can buy?

02:44Earlier, there was no discussion about giving a limit.

02:49But of course, it depends on the LGUs.

02:52Like Mayor Zamora earlier,

02:54the chairman of the Metro Manila Council.

02:56He said in the consultation,

02:58they will list everyone who wants to buy

03:02to avoid the queue.

03:04But there is no limitation for those who want to buy.

03:09But it cannot be abused?

03:11It cannot be abused?

03:13Can everyone buy and sell at a higher price?

03:18The DA, the LGU, and the NFA will help in monitoring.

03:22Just like what we are doing now with Right For All,

03:25we are not seeing anyone who is blocking the sale of our goods.

03:31Okay, we will continue to monitor that.

03:33Thank you very much for your time on Balitang Hali.

03:36Thank you very much, Taylor. Long live to you. Good morning.

03:39Thank you to the Department of Agriculture Assistant,

03:41Secretary Arnel De Mesa.

03:48Look what you made her do.

04:22because of her successful The Heiress Tour.

04:38A snake was found in a backyard in Camalanyugan, Cagayan.

04:43According to the investigation, the snake was not wrapped around the body

04:46and the placenta of Makita Sakubeta is still attached.

04:50The snake is now in the care of the District Hospital.

04:54The Rural Health Unit is calling for help such as diapers, clothes,

04:59and other items for the snake.

05:01Authorities are continuing their investigation

05:03to determine the identity of the mother of the child.

05:08Hot news!

05:10Vice President Sara Duterte filed a petition for certiorari

05:14in the Supreme Court in connection with the impeachment complaint

05:17filed against her.

05:19According to the petition, the impeachment complaint against the VP

05:23was signed by more than 200 members of the House of Representatives

05:27because it violates Section 3, Subsection 5 of Article 11 of the Constitution.

05:32It states that there cannot be more than one impeachment proceedings

05:36against an official of the government for a year.

05:40Because of this, the Supreme Court should stop the movement of Sen. Kaugnay-Rito.

05:45Before this, the family of Duterte filed a separate petition

05:49to question the impeachment.

05:52According to the spokesman of the Supreme Court,

05:54they will immediately take action

05:56because the impeachment is a nationwide concern.

05:59House Secretary-General Reginald Velasco called for a moot

06:02or a ceasefire on the petition.

06:04The three previous impeachment complaints are already in the archives

06:07while the fourth complaint has already been transmitted to the Senate.

06:12Senate President Chiz Escudero reiterated

06:15that the Senate cannot hasten the impeachment trial

06:18of Vice President Sara Duterte.

06:21At a press conference this morning,

06:23Escudero said that the impeachment proceedings

06:26or the case of Duterte-Rito will begin on June 2

06:28when the Congress will have a session.

06:31There are many things that need to be clarified in the rules of impeachment

06:34so that justice will be served to all parties.

06:38He said that he will wait for the decision of the Supreme Court

06:41on the petitions filed by Kaugnay-Rito on impeachment.

06:44Escudero also responded to the letter of Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel

06:48and he also gave other words like forthwith

06:51or the impeachment trial should start immediately.

06:57The rules of the Senate shall proceed with trial forthwith.

07:03The rules of the House shall be immediately referred to the Speaker.

07:14But the Speaker has been sitting there for two months.

07:23The Vatican announced that Pope Francis has a double pneumonia.

07:28That infection is serious

07:30and it is making it harder for the Holy Father to breathe.

07:34For more than a week now,

07:36the Holy Father has been suffering from a respiratory infection

07:40in Rome since February 14.

07:53For those who love to say H-H-W-W-O,

07:57holding hands while walking,

07:59you will not be offended by the words of a young woman in Valenzuela.

08:04The scene is that they will not be able to reach the store if the older brother does not hold them.

08:10You can also buy them at the store, for example.

08:15What?

08:17That's okay.

08:21That's the clingy two-year-old baby girl, Princess Kisha Marie.

08:25According to her older brother,

08:27they will go to the store to buy something.

08:30But what Kisha wants is

08:32to hold the older brother's hand.

08:34If the baby girl does not hold her hand for the hint,

08:38the older brother will give the baby girl's hand.

08:41She says that she has been deserving of the clinginess of Princess Kisha since she was a child.
