00:01 It was a quick visit to the Philippines by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
00:06 He is hoping that he will deliver his message to the Filipinos.
00:11 Maris Umadi has the news.
00:13 [Music]
00:16 In his first visit to the Philippines,
00:19 the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has not stayed in the country for more than 12 hours.
00:25 That's why he is worried that he will not be able to visit the beautiful Philippines.
00:29 I saw just people, people are wearing warm in the hotel and in the palace and in the streets.
00:37 I saw him, they're just smiling.
00:39 Even though Ukraine is in the middle of a war,
00:43 President Volodymyr Zelensky still deserves to visit our country
00:48 because this is how he values the voice of the Philippines and the whole region
00:53 in terms of peace and freedom.
00:56 He also made a good decision to come here for a personal visit to President Marcos
01:00 at the upcoming peace summit of Ukraine that will be held in Switzerland this June 15.
01:05 It was very important directly to invite the President,
01:09 directly to speak with him about the details of what's going on on the battlefield,
01:13 what Russia brought with this war to our land, all this crisis.
01:19 And of course for us it's very important not to give Russia possibility to influence on Asia.
01:25 We are preparing our steps to peace and of course for us it's very important
01:30 that Philippines really support our territorial integrity and sovereignty.
01:37 Just a few moments ago, at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore,
01:40 President Zelensky announced his decision to stop Russia and China
01:46 from visiting the so-called summit.
01:49 You said Russia and China are trying to undermine your peace summit in Switzerland this month.
01:56 Do you think Russia and China are afraid that the summit would become such a huge success
02:01 that it could undermine their global influence and how so?
02:05 Yes, because it's a pity that China joined to Russia
02:11 and now helps them to push the leaders not to participate in the peace summit.
02:18 We've been in shock really because we count on all the world.
02:23 But I think this is a surprise for Russia and their allies that for today
02:30 we have the confirmation from 107 countries and this is a huge result.
02:36 I think that Russia counted that nobody will attempt the summit and nobody will participate us.
02:42 But you see that really mostly the world is on the side of peace.
02:47 Like what he said, in his country, what's happening in the Philippines
02:52 is the middle of China's invasion of our ships in the West Philippine Sea.
02:56 And that's why we have to hold the situation and we have to be together
03:01 with very strong and clean position that nobody can occupy your territory. Nobody.
03:07 I think that there are a lot of similar things and a lot of challenging challenges.
03:14 That's why we spoke with the president that now we need unity.
03:20 If we will stay strong, it means that it will give very important signal to other countries
03:26 not to try even to think how to occupy other independent countries.
03:32 Ukraine is considered a small country compared to Russia,
03:36 but you are still successfully standing up against Russia.
03:40 What kind of lesson can the Philippines learn from your experience,
03:44 especially with all these tensions in the West Philippine Sea
03:48 and all the bullying that we've been experiencing from China?
03:52 The lesson is that if you are on your territory,
03:58 if you are in unity between people, government, soldiers,
04:04 I mean everybody will defend your house.
04:09 The world saw the resilience of our people.
04:13 And that's why my message to you, of course we wish you only peace,
04:18 but you have to be ready and to think about defending shield for the country.
04:25 When asked what makes him strong despite the power of Russia?
04:30 Yes, moral is good. I think that Ukrainians are still strong because we are right,
04:36 because we are with a very honest position.
04:39 We are on our land, in our house, with our lovely children,
04:43 and we will stay till the peace will come.
04:48 This is what you want to tell the Filipino people.
04:51 Yes, and Ukraine will never forget on which side you are now.
04:57 Historically, I think you are on the side of truth,
05:01 on the side of peace in any challenges for your country.
05:06 Ukraine will stay together with you.
05:08 Maris Umali reporting for GMA Integrated News.
05:12 Here is the breaking news.
05:15 Two men selling illegal drugs in Sampaloc, Manila were arrested.
05:21 One of the suspects is only 16 years old.
05:24 They were caught with a 25-gram shabu that is worth P170,000.
05:31 The suspects defended themselves, but they did it to protect their family.
05:37 They will be charged with violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
05:42 A motorcycle rider was caught with a gun in Quezon City.
05:48 He was called to the police station.
05:49 The rider was locked in a checkpoint, but he did not stop.
05:52 When the police arrived, they found a gun in his bag in the compartment of his motorcycle.
05:59 They investigated if the gun was used in the crime.
06:02 The rider refused to give a statement regarding the gun.
06:06 The girl was slowly taken to a forest in California, USA.
06:15 The girl was airlifted and injured in the leg while kayaking.
06:20 After a few minutes, the rescue was successful.
06:24 Still on the explosion of Vulcan Canlaon,
06:28 we will return to the phone line with La Castellana MDRRMO Head John Deacis.
06:33 Good morning again and welcome to Balitang Hali.
06:36 Good morning also.
06:39 How are you?
06:40 To all the listeners of this program.
06:42 Yes, we will just hear from you about the monitoring of the situation.
06:46 Of course, how are the families that were evacuated?
06:51 So far, the families that we transferred to the evacuation center are okay.
06:57 But we are monitoring the health team, the possible community bodies that may be in the evacuation center.
07:06 The seats, the beds, that's what we are monitoring.
07:12 But are you ready for the medicines, for the doctors that are on standby just in case?
07:18 Yes, in the camp management team, there is a medical health team that is on standby.
07:24 We are also monitoring the checkups of the evacuees.
07:28 Have the aid from the DSWD arrived?
07:32 Yes, it has arrived.
07:35 The regional officer is already here.
07:38 And then Senator Rich Catelian is also here in Negros.
07:43 Okay. The ash fall, sir, how is it?
07:46 Are there any incidents that are hurting or attacking any health-related issues related to the ash fall?
07:55 Yes. They are the first ones we took yesterday in evacuating those who are sick with fever,
08:02 and then the children, the elderly. We are transferring them to the municipal health office.
08:09 Do we have an update, for example, if the directives of the FIVOC to you,
08:16 if when will they be able to evacuate the people who are there?
08:21 So far, what is our situation?
08:23 So far, the situation from alert level 1 yesterday, it became alert level 2.
08:30 Based on the sudden eruption last night.
08:35 Okay. But there was no...
08:36 So it will take weeks, maybe until month, for it to reach level 2. We don't know.
08:41 So we're still waiting for the update from the FIVOC.
08:44 But so far, sir, there were no explosions, only one that we can record.
08:52 Yes. One major eruption yesterday.
08:55 And then the vent from the edifice or crater is visible that there is still smoke.
09:01 Do you have any more needs or calls from you, John, for our government
09:07 and for the people we want to share and help you?
09:12 Yes. We were called from the LG of La Castellana for additional food packs, hygiene kit, and especially the face mask.
09:22 Because if ever this scenario continues, due to the number of population,
09:30 maybe the LG of La Castellana will not be able to handle it.
09:32 Because the population of Municipal Cliff, La Castellana, if it escalates, it might affect more or less 50,000.
09:39 Okay. Thank you very much, sir, for your time that you gave us in the latest news.
09:44 Welcome. Good morning.
09:47 That was La Castellana MDRRMO Head, John De Asis.
