Isang food vlogger mula Iligan City, namatay dahil umano sa pagmu-mukbang ng mga putok-batok na pagkain?! Pero ang kanyang pamilya, may gustong linawin. Ano nga ba ang tunay na sanhi ng kanyang kamatayan? Mga student broadcaster mula sa iba’t ibang probinsiya ng Pilipinas, nagtagisan sa taunang National Schools Press Conference na ginanap sa Cebu! 23-anyos na lalaki mula Maramag, Bukidnon, limang taon nang nangingitim at tila nabubulok ang mga binti at paa.
Samantala, misis mula Baguio City, pinutulan ng ari si mister! Samantala, ang isang misis naman mula Cebu, naputol ang daliri matapos itong kagatin ng kalaguyo raw ng kanyang live-in partner? Magkakamag-anak mula Narra, Palawan na sabay-sabay na nagpakasal, sunod-sunod umano ang naging kamalasan dahil ang kanilang pag-iisang dibdib, sukob daw?!
Mga residente at seaweed farmers sa Balabac, Palawan, pinaputukan ng mga armadong lalaki para diumano mapalayas sa lupa ng kanilang mga ninuno! Bakit sila ginagamitan ng dahas at tinataboy sa kanilang lupa? Pagnanakaw ng obra ng tanyag na National Artist na si Fernando Amorsolo sa isang museo sa Negros Occidental, na-huli cam!

00:00:00This grilled octopus, he ate it right away, even though it's still smoking.
00:00:07It's so good!
00:00:12Every time he eats the soup, it's like he's vacuuming it.
00:00:23And even though he's almost full, he's still going for the giant fish.
00:00:30Are you crazy?
00:00:32Come on, let's eat!
00:00:35If he gets caught in his mukbang videos, you'd think he'd have no tomorrow.
00:00:45He's the famous mukbang vlogger from Mindanao, Dongs Apatan.
00:00:51Let's eat this with coconut milk.
00:00:54It's so good!
00:00:56But once in a while, there's a surprising episode.
00:01:03The widespread speculation that Dongs died from mukbang.
00:01:12Is mukbang really the cause of his death?
00:01:16Mukbang has become a source of entertainment for people to watch.
00:01:33According to online rumors, this video was taken by Dongs.
00:01:38Let's eat, idols!
00:01:40Let's eat, idols!
00:01:42Where he can see the whole head of the cow being boiled.
00:01:53The skin of the cow that's full of fat was dipped in vinegar.
00:02:03Even the eyes of the cow were not forgiven.
00:02:11At the end of the video, you can see half of the head of the cow being boiled.
00:02:25But Dongs Apatan's family didn't believe the rumors.
00:02:30They made an interview to clarify the fake news.
00:02:37It's not true that Dongs Apatan ate the head of the cow that was being boiled.
00:02:42They said that Dongs Apatan died on June 13.
00:02:45But on June 1, he ate the head of the cow that was being boiled.
00:02:49The head of the cow was being boiled for weeks before he was attacked.
00:02:53He didn't just eat one piece of meat. He ate three pieces of meat.
00:02:57That's not the reason why he was attacked.
00:03:00Dongs Apatan also shot a video the day he was attacked.
00:03:05Idol, look at this.
00:03:08This is fried chicken.
00:03:10Like other of his videos, Dongs Apatan still has no mercy for eating a piece of fried chicken.
00:03:20But in the video, you can see that he's eating something.
00:03:30After lunch, he went out to buy food for his content.
00:03:35By 3 p.m., someone called us and said that he was attacked.
00:03:39Dongs Apatan was rushed to the hospital.
00:03:41But after an hour, he died.
00:03:45Thank you very much.
00:03:59I miss him. I can't wait to see him.
00:04:05It's really painful for us.
00:04:07When we get to know our manor, we feel happy and blessed.
00:04:12In 2019, when the construction worker Dongs Apatan started vlogging,
00:04:17Hi, idols. There are a lot of mussels here.
00:04:20what he usually content is charity works.
00:04:24Thank you.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:26But because he noticed that he can quickly generate views,
00:04:30he decided to make mukbang videos.
00:04:34This is his career.
00:04:36The word mukbang came from two Korean words.
00:04:39Muk means to eat.
00:04:42Bang means to show.
00:04:45It became popular in South Korea because there are a lot of people living alone at that time.
00:04:51So when they watch, they enjoy while eating what's in the video.
00:04:56They have a parasocial relationship.
00:04:59They're doing it for entertainment.
00:05:01People like it when they see that they can eat a lot.
00:05:07Dongs' income came from the needs of his three children.
00:05:12His wife divorced them.
00:05:14He's the breadwinner here in the house.
00:05:17And Dongs really hopes to have high blood pressure.
00:05:22I have high blood pressure.
00:05:24In 2021, he became symptomatic of it.
00:05:27He always says that he's sick here.
00:05:29Because there is no sufficient supply of maintenance medicine,
00:05:33Dongs looked for an alternative solution that he would be content with.
00:05:38That's his maintenance, banana water.
00:05:42In fact, Dongs was interviewed by our team last year
00:05:46when we found him drinking water collected from a banana tree
00:05:52that is not good for high blood pressure.
00:05:56We wrap it in plastic so that no insect can get in.
00:05:59I couldn't move.
00:06:00So I felt like my blood pressure went down.
00:06:02When I went there, my blood pressure was 140 over 90.
00:06:05I said, it's really bad.
00:06:06There is no study that says that the water from banana trees
00:06:11has medicinal properties because no clinical trial is exploring it as of now.
00:06:16Two months ago, he said he was okay.
00:06:19His blood pressure was normal.
00:06:22Yes, that's why he stopped drinking banana water.
00:06:25We told him not to eat too much fat
00:06:28to avoid high blood pressure.
00:06:30He only answered us in four videos
00:06:33so that he can make more money.
00:06:35Until he was attacked and died.
00:06:38But was there any sign of vomiting in his throat?
00:06:46According to the doctor who examined Dongs,
00:06:49the cause of his death was left hypertensive bleed with herniation syndrome.
00:06:55Dongs had a brain attack.
00:06:58Dong was really in a coma.
00:07:00He couldn't speak.
00:07:01Herniation syndrome is when there is too much blood,
00:07:04it pushes the brain down.
00:07:05After that, the respiration and heartbeats are shut down.
00:07:11Then, it's death.
00:07:13The lifestyle of the patient is the number one determinant
00:07:16for you to have this kind of disease.
00:07:19What happened to Dongs was alerted by the DOH,
00:07:23or the Department of Health.
00:07:25That's why they insisted on banning mukbang content.
00:07:30The Ministry of Health is looking into
00:07:32how to regulate mukbang.
00:07:36The DOH's duty is the so-called health promotion.
00:07:40This can lead to eating disorders.
00:07:45The whole mukbang community is alarmed.
00:07:48If there will be a law, we will follow it.
00:07:52But I hope there will be a deep dialogue when it comes to this.
00:07:56The expert reminds us to avoid brain attacks and other diseases
00:08:01caused by excessive eating.
00:08:04Always remember the right plate ratio.
00:08:08Half of it should be filled with glow food.
00:08:12Fruits, vegetables, and 1 third of it should be meat sources.
00:08:17And half of it should be divided into go-food.
00:08:22Bye-bye. I'm going home.
00:08:24Please stop bashing us.
00:08:26We are already dead.
00:08:28We need comfort, not bashing.
00:08:31To all our viewers, followers, and supporters,
00:08:34thank you very much.
00:08:35Take care.
00:08:42Every year, student journalists
00:08:46attend the National Schools Press Conference
00:08:50which was held in Cebu this year.
00:08:53Who is dreaming of becoming like me?
00:09:01In Tindig,
00:09:02Forma,
00:09:05and Pananalita.
00:09:07Do you have an opinion?
00:09:14Yes, what is the opinion of the youth there?
00:09:28One, two, three.
00:09:30The best in making live TV and radio programs.
00:09:39This is part of the annual gathering of the best campus journalists
00:09:45from different regions of the country.
00:09:47This is the NSPC or National Schools Press Conference
00:09:53which was held this year in Karkar City, Cebu.
00:10:01The youth went through a lot
00:10:04before qualifying for the National Competition.
00:10:08They will fight in different categories.
00:10:11Some of them will write news,
00:10:14take photos for publication,
00:10:17and even draw editorial cartoons.
00:10:21But one of the most anticipated
00:10:24is the Live TV and Radio Broadcasting Competition.
00:10:27Journalism is really part of my heart,
00:10:30and so I really want to do my best.
00:10:32We carry the whole Region XI in our backs.
00:10:35The youth from Carraga Region.
00:10:38Game face-on.
00:10:40They are the defending champions
00:10:43in the Live TV Broadcasting Filipino category.
00:10:46We want them to live up to our expectations
00:10:49to become champions again and to defend the crown.
00:10:52The female news anchor of the group, Verity.
00:10:55She's also pressured,
00:10:57especially with her brother who won the championship last year.
00:11:01I really didn't expect to enter journalism.
00:11:05They were the ones who pushed me to try
00:11:07because I'm shy.
00:11:09The youth from Calabarzon.
00:11:11They are confident that they have a fight in the competition.
00:11:16When they wrote their script,
00:11:18they followed it.
00:11:21Half an hour before their deadline,
00:11:24the group from Davao Region
00:11:27seemed to be in a mess.
00:11:29We were about to enter the competition
00:11:31because the time was almost up.
00:11:33We weren't done yet.
00:11:35Our laptops were low-batting.
00:11:39If they don't make it to the deadline,
00:11:42their overall score will be reduced.
00:11:45They are still hoping to make it to the finals.
00:11:48We have high hopes, sir, that this team can do it.
00:11:52Meanwhile, in the other house,
00:11:56the voices of the student radio anchors are echoing.
00:12:02This is where the live radio broadcasting competition is being held.
00:12:09Ugong-Ugong is strong.
00:12:11They are the frontrunner in this competition.
00:12:16The group from Calabarzon
00:12:18is the 9-time defending champion in the NSPC.
00:12:22The team is together to create dynamics within each other.
00:12:26And for the show, Miss Bali.
00:12:29But they are not complaining.
00:12:32It is heard that their group from Ilocos Region
00:12:36also has a strong fight.
00:12:39In fact, this video of their training went viral online.
00:12:46Alert!
00:12:47To the Katalina Radio!
00:12:49Until the two groups were cut off.
00:12:53Raratchadana, Bulaguzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:12:59Arangkada, Voces na Masa.
00:13:01I am your defender.
00:13:04Kelvin Hidalgo.
00:13:05The Farkar City team won't be able to catch up with you.
00:13:11Since this is a competition, of course, there will be blocking events.
00:13:14Here's your Rain of Chica Dora!
00:13:17Rain of Bella!
00:13:18But the students from Region 10 or Northern Mindanao Region
00:13:22have a different attack.
00:13:251, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Technical check.
00:13:28Just the intro.
00:13:291, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Technical check.
00:13:301, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Technical check.
00:13:311, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Technical check.
00:13:321, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Technical check.
00:13:33Excitement if we win.
00:13:35The question is.
00:13:37Radio NSPC.
00:13:39Vloging NSPC.
00:13:41Who will be the winner?
00:13:45Let's go back to the TV Broadcasting Competition.
00:13:48Where after they shoot and edit,
00:13:55they are now in line at the mock studio for their live broadcast.
00:14:01Their news will be shown on an LED screen inside the campus.
00:14:08Until the Davao Region's flag is raised.
00:14:22What we did now is we just introduced them for a while.
00:14:26But they were able to exceed that expectation.
00:14:31Hey, you're not done yet?
00:14:33Not yet.
00:14:34The other group experienced a technical problem.
00:14:39I'm still in the stage of exploration.
00:14:41The competition lasted all night.
00:14:44But the coach from Region 7, Teacher Aileen,
00:14:47didn't seem tired while waiting for her students to join.
00:14:53You guys are really good.
00:14:57Good morning, Philippines!
00:14:59Good morning, Philippines!
00:15:00Good morning, Philippines!
00:15:02We think that we could have done better.
00:15:04But the flow of our broadcast is really smooth.
00:15:09Verity's group also joined the mock studio.
00:15:13Good morning, Philippines!
00:15:17Good morning, Philippines!
00:15:19Don't be late if you're already in your favorite program.
00:15:23Campus Connect!
00:15:26But they were not content with their performance.
00:15:30I'm a bit disappointed with my performance.
00:15:34But I believe that we did our best.
00:15:38The last group to join was Kokonan from Cordillera Administrative Region.
00:15:43From Tabuk City in Kalinga, they crossed mountains and seas almost all day long.
00:15:49They were only able to reach Cebu.
00:15:51We were supposed to visit the studio that we will use for the contest.
00:15:55Our flight was at 7 p.m. so we were not able to make it.
00:15:59They also didn't have a proper uniform.
00:16:02Their budget was already set aside for their food and equipment.
00:16:07We prioritized our equipment.
00:16:10But that's not in the attire.
00:16:12It's in the performance.
00:16:15Good evening, Philippines!
00:16:17Long live Carcar City!
00:16:19We are very proud to be able to report from the Philippines.
00:16:23It's time, right?
00:16:24Yes, it's time.
00:16:26And I hope that the next generation of our students will do their best.
00:16:33NSPC is one of the programs of the Ministry of Education
00:16:38to improve the lives of students in the field of Campus Journalism.
00:16:44While the National Schools Press Conference is being held,
00:16:48there are teachers who continue to help
00:16:54so that our students will be able to reach their goals.
00:17:05One of the products of NSPC and proud Batang Prescon
00:17:10is Kapuso Reporter, Rafi Tima.
00:17:13He was a big influence to me.
00:17:15When I was in college, he was one of my top of mind
00:17:18who gave me a career in writing.
00:17:21One more thing I can share is that not all jobs are as a reporter.
00:17:25A part of a documentary or even a newscast are those behind the camera.
00:17:30So don't always dream of being a reporter on-cam.
00:17:33That's not the end-all and be-all of this industry.
00:17:36There are more.
00:17:37As long as your foundation is good at writing, start from there.
00:17:40Meanwhile, this Friday is the most anticipated announcement
00:17:45of the winners of TV and Radio Broadcasting.
00:17:48The 25th winner of the Best Newspaper Award
00:17:53from Limog, Philippines.
00:17:56Andrea's group from Calabarzon,
00:17:59Bigong,
00:18:01Regino,
00:18:03got the 3rd place in Radio Broadcasting Filipino
00:18:07from Ilocos Region.
00:18:09From Calabarzon, Davao Region.
00:18:13And the champion this year is
00:18:15Kokonan from Region 10.
00:18:19From Rio, Caracas.
00:18:22In Filipino TV Broadcasting,
00:18:25Verity won the Individual Award.
00:18:31And Davao Region's group
00:18:33I'm really proud of you.
00:18:35Verity's group
00:18:37Defending Champion of Bigong, Makapuesto.
00:18:40What matters to me is the journey, the movement.
00:18:44The champion this year is the group from Calabarzon.
00:18:49Of course, I'm happy.
00:18:51This is the award that I'm most proud of.
00:18:53And it's worth it for all of us.
00:18:55The championship of Calabarzon in NSPC
00:19:00was also won by
00:19:03the overall champion
00:19:05Davao Region.
00:19:08A lot of our teachers say
00:19:10that they really put their needs in their own pockets
00:19:13during the trainings.
00:19:15The biggest problem of our education system
00:19:18is the lack of funding.
00:19:20Not only in terms of extracurricular activities,
00:19:23but also the basic needs of our schools.
00:19:27There are a lot of shortcomings.
00:19:30Because, of course,
00:19:32I said earlier,
00:19:3370 million are already performing.
00:19:35And considering the huge number of deliveries,
00:19:40we asked for more.
00:19:43So that it will be more full,
00:19:46whatever the number.
00:19:48I realized that journalism,
00:19:50it's very important to dig deeper
00:19:53and to be able to deliver those stories
00:19:56that really matter.
00:19:58To those who are dreaming of becoming a journalist like me,
00:20:02like all of us,
00:20:04I hope that you, as a campus journalist,
00:20:07will continue to serve our country
00:20:10by spreading the truth.
00:20:23After an accident on a motorcycle,
00:20:25a man from Maramag, Bukidnon,
00:20:28his 20 feet
00:20:31turned black
00:20:32and seemed to be rotting.
00:20:34He is now serving his own feet,
00:20:38his own brother.
00:20:44Every time he rides his motorcycle,
00:20:47Mark John, who is 23 years old,
00:20:50feels free.
00:20:52We ride almost every day.
00:20:54But an accident on a motorcycle
00:21:00completely changed the course of his life.
00:21:03His 20 feet
00:21:06turned black,
00:21:08his skin turned orange,
00:21:10and seemed to be rotting.
00:21:18He is now serving his own bed.
00:21:24I still remember,
00:21:26I still walk,
00:21:28I still sit.
00:21:30It's very hard.
00:21:41In this hut in Maramag, Bukidnon,
00:21:43Mark John lives.
00:21:46He has been a prisoner for 5 years.
00:21:50His 20 feet
00:21:52turned black.
00:21:54He is now serving his own feet.
00:21:58After the operation,
00:22:00I can't stand,
00:22:02I can't sit,
00:22:04I can't move.
00:22:06He is now serving his own feet,
00:22:08his younger brother,
00:22:10Jeboy.
00:22:12I feel sorry for him.
00:22:14I feel sorry for him.
00:22:16I feel sorry for him.
00:22:22I feel sorry for him.
00:22:28I feel sorry for him.
00:22:30I feel sorry for him.
00:22:32I feel sorry for him.
00:22:34I wipe my back first
00:22:36so that my back won't itch.
00:22:46I wipe my back first.
00:22:52I wipe my back first.
00:22:54Jeboy also remembers
00:22:56his brother Mark John
00:22:58every time he takes a bath.
00:23:00On my birthday,
00:23:02I am the one who pours water
00:23:04and Jeboy is the one
00:23:06who soaps my feet.
00:23:08When it's cold,
00:23:10I take a bath, I get convulsions.
00:23:12That's why they clean
00:23:14the wounds on his feet
00:23:16and ankles first.
00:23:22I wipe my feet.
00:23:24I wipe my feet.
00:23:26I wipe my feet.
00:23:28I wipe my feet.
00:23:30When you are sprayed with alcohol,
00:23:32does it hurt?
00:23:34It hurts a lot.
00:23:36When I feel hot on my back,
00:23:38I sit down and sit for a while.
00:23:42To refresh his brother,
00:23:46Jeboy takes a banana leaf
00:23:48and puts it
00:23:50on his brother's back.
00:23:58When he didn't have an accident,
00:24:00he was okay with us.
00:24:02But we weren't that close.
00:24:04Mostly, he was on a boat.
00:24:06That's why he used
00:24:08my father's motorcycle.
00:24:10He used it to escape
00:24:12so that he could ride.
00:24:14Their father Edgar
00:24:16used to take care of Mark John.
00:24:18He took care of his brother
00:24:20because I worked
00:24:22so that we could eat.
00:24:24My mother passed away
00:24:26when I was 12.
00:24:28My father worked.
00:24:30Jeboy took on his new responsibility
00:24:32even though
00:24:34he had to take care of himself.
00:24:36He also had epilepsy.
00:24:38When he was in grade 1,
00:24:40his head got stuck
00:24:42in the metal.
00:24:45I love my brother,
00:24:47Jeboy.
00:24:49I feel sorry for him
00:24:51because other kids know more
00:24:53about him than he does.
00:24:55He gets bullied
00:24:57by others.
00:25:02He doesn't know
00:25:04how old he is.
00:25:06How do you feel?
00:25:08I feel very bad.
00:25:10My family is very sad.
00:25:16They say that Mark John
00:25:18would take care of their son
00:25:20if he did not get hurt
00:25:22by the car accident.
00:25:24Mark John really loves
00:25:26to ride his motorcycle.
00:25:28He used his father Edgar's
00:25:30motorcycle to ride.
00:25:32My father didn't know how to ride
00:25:34yet.
00:25:36to my motorcycle.
00:25:38Until December 2019,
00:25:40Mark John and one of his friends
00:25:42were involved.
00:25:44I was the one who was driving.
00:25:48Until they were hit
00:25:50by a truck.
00:25:54I lost my motorcycle.
00:25:56I couldn't get it back
00:25:58to the police station
00:26:00because I don't have a license.
00:26:02Don't ride a motorcycle
00:26:04because it's not right.
00:26:06My two feet were injured.
00:26:08I had a blood clot.
00:26:10I lost my memory for three days.
00:26:12Mark John
00:26:14underwent several operations.
00:26:16My two feet are now stainless.
00:26:18I also had a brain surgery.
00:26:20His memory came back
00:26:22but he was completely
00:26:24paralyzed.
00:26:26It's very hard.
00:26:28I still remember
00:26:30how I used to walk
00:26:32and how I used to sit.
00:26:38I wish I wasn't like this.
00:26:40His teeth
00:26:42were different.
00:26:44They grew bigger
00:26:46on my feet
00:26:48and on my eyes.
00:26:50It's very hard.
00:26:52I can't stand
00:26:54to walk
00:26:56and work
00:26:58to help my family.
00:27:00I still don't have
00:27:02hope.
00:27:04Am I good
00:27:06at God's help?
00:27:08With the help of the LGU,
00:27:10this past year,
00:27:12he was able to
00:27:14recover his memory
00:27:16and his memory
00:27:18was restored.
00:27:20This past year,
00:27:22Mark John was consulted.
00:27:24The doctor who was infected
00:27:26didn't say anything.
00:27:28He said I can only grow
00:27:30because I can't walk
00:27:32and exercise every day.
00:27:34I drink water
00:27:36and I can't go out
00:27:38because of the sweat.
00:27:40To help with his treatment,
00:27:42the local government
00:27:44of Maramag helped him.
00:27:46To make him more comfortable
00:27:48they gave Mark John a cushion.
00:27:50If ever after admission,
00:27:52he's discharged,
00:27:54they can request the doctor
00:27:56to look at his progress
00:27:58in healing his memory.
00:28:00Our program also
00:28:02provided financial assistance.
00:28:04Thank you very much
00:28:06to MGA
00:28:08for the help they gave me.
00:28:10I hope you can
00:28:12help more.
00:28:14Mark John was also surprised
00:28:16by his friends
00:28:18who were with him on his rides.
00:28:20How are you?
00:28:22I'm fine.
00:28:24I'm a bit dizzy.
00:28:26I'm happy
00:28:28because they visited me.
00:28:30Now that I'm back,
00:28:32I want to be with them again.
00:28:34He was brought to NMMC
00:28:36for another hospital admission.
00:28:38There, the patient was managed
00:28:40and when he got home,
00:28:42there was no follow-up.
00:28:44On Wednesday,
00:28:46our team consulted
00:28:48Mark John.
00:28:58He has an infection.
00:29:00Septicemia, or sepsis.
00:29:02It's in your blood.
00:29:04He has an infection in his knee
00:29:06and in his wounds.
00:29:08He's lucky that he was able
00:29:10to hold on when he got here.
00:29:12They gave appropriate antibiotics.
00:29:14But the big question is,
00:29:16is there any hope
00:29:18for Mark John to walk again?
00:29:22From the start,
00:29:24he has what we call
00:29:26a spinal cord injury.
00:29:28There's no chance for the movement
00:29:30of his legs to return.
00:29:32His femoral fracture,
00:29:34his two fingers,
00:29:36healed.
00:29:38He just has an infection in his knee.
00:29:40They gave him a steel implant.
00:29:42We can remove the steel
00:29:44to reduce the focus of the infection.
00:29:46There's no reason
00:29:48to cut it.
00:29:50So as much as possible, we save it.
00:29:52When it comes to spinal cord injury,
00:29:54the best thing is
00:29:56the multidisciplinary approach.
00:29:58There's rehab, PT,
00:30:00occupational therapy.
00:30:02I always pray.
00:30:04I still don't lose hope.
00:30:06Mark John
00:30:08will be able to stand up again.
00:30:12He will be able to walk.
00:30:18He will be able to walk again.
00:30:20He's headed
00:30:22for a better tomorrow.
00:30:26I want him to be able to walk again.
00:30:30I hope you can help me.
00:30:32I still don't have hope
00:30:34to walk again.
00:30:38I still don't have hope
00:30:40to walk again.
00:30:48This is the
00:30:50grudge of every man.
00:30:54The owner's cut.
00:31:02Something that happened
00:31:04once upon a time
00:31:06in New York City.
00:31:08The one who did it
00:31:10was his wife.
00:31:22Why did his wife
00:31:24cut his happiness?
00:31:28I'm screaming for my rights
00:31:30so I won't get hurt.
00:31:32No!
00:31:34The suspect
00:31:36is now in jail
00:31:38at this police station in Baguio.
00:31:40Let's change his name to Agnes.
00:31:42The demon
00:31:44has been
00:31:46haunting him
00:31:48so he can't
00:31:50stop it.
00:31:52I did it to him because I'm full.
00:31:54In 2012,
00:31:56Agnes and Jovencio
00:31:58met.
00:32:00They got married
00:32:02but they promised
00:32:04not to cut off
00:32:06their friendship
00:32:08but their union.
00:32:10I love you.
00:32:12I'll tell my neighbor
00:32:14that I'm going to get married.
00:32:16His wife
00:32:18is hurting him.
00:32:20He's beating me up.
00:32:22I'm not beating up my wife.
00:32:24He has a record of beating me up.
00:32:26I almost bathed in my own blood.
00:32:28I don't want to leave him.
00:32:30God knows how much I love him.
00:32:36Until Jovencio
00:32:38worked as a boatman
00:32:40in Pangasinan.
00:32:42Agnes noticed
00:32:44something different.
00:32:46He was there for a week
00:32:48but after a while,
00:32:50he came to me.
00:32:52Jovencio's
00:32:54attitude towards him
00:32:56changed
00:32:58when he visited him at work.
00:33:00He wanted me to go home.
00:33:02Agnes insisted.
00:33:04He has a woman
00:33:06that he supports.
00:33:08I don't have a woman.
00:33:10He's jealous.
00:33:12Until he was confirmed.
00:33:14This morning, July 6,
00:33:16Jovencio just got home
00:33:18from Pangasinan.
00:33:20He was drinking.
00:33:22Agnes was also drunk.
00:33:24I admit that I was drunk
00:33:26but it was 4 shots.
00:33:28Until he was convinced
00:33:30that he was drunk
00:33:32and started to drink.
00:33:34But in the middle of their
00:33:36argument, Jovencio
00:33:38didn't give up.
00:33:40The other one is better.
00:33:42Another name.
00:33:44He told me that I have a woman.
00:33:46I don't have a woman.
00:33:48He's jealous.
00:33:50Until Agnes
00:33:52accepted what he heard
00:33:54from his side.
00:33:56I accepted that he was
00:33:58going to hit me.
00:34:00But I couldn't accept
00:34:02when he got too serious.
00:34:04Agnes was like
00:34:06losing herself.
00:34:08I just did what I was told.
00:34:12When he got home,
00:34:14he went back to his room
00:34:16and played with me.
00:34:18And nothing happened.
00:34:20Suddenly, he cut me.
00:34:26Suddenly, I screamed.
00:34:28A lot of blood came out.
00:34:30I thought I was going to die.
00:34:32I was so scared.
00:34:36A concerned citizen called
00:34:38our police station.
00:34:40Our police responded immediately.
00:34:42After the incident,
00:34:44the police left.
00:34:46The police left.
00:34:48The suspect left.
00:34:50The doctors tried to
00:34:52hang Jovencio's cut finger.
00:34:54He was begging
00:34:56to get his finger back.
00:34:58Will Mr. Jovencio
00:35:00get his finger back?
00:35:06Meanwhile,
00:35:08in Talisay City, Cebu,
00:35:10a woman's finger
00:35:12was cut
00:35:14after being bitten
00:35:16by her partner.
00:35:20The first thing I did
00:35:22was to go inside.
00:35:24I stepped inside.
00:35:26This is where I saw
00:35:28the blood.
00:35:30The victim, Angele,
00:35:32was cut with her right hand.
00:35:34The whole force
00:35:36was carried by another woman
00:35:38by her live-in partner
00:35:40when they arrived.
00:35:42I was so scared.
00:35:44I was shaking.
00:35:46When I saw the cut finger,
00:35:48I looked at it.
00:35:50It was gone.
00:35:52It was gone.
00:35:54Unlike other relationships,
00:35:56Angele was only
00:35:58bitten by her partner
00:36:00when she first found out
00:36:02that her live-in partner
00:36:04had another woman.
00:36:06I hid her.
00:36:08I fought with her.
00:36:10I deleted their accounts.
00:36:12I deleted their accounts.
00:36:14I called them back.
00:36:16This is another relationship
00:36:18of Vince and FW
00:36:20that we hid under the name Jane.
00:36:22I was so scared.
00:36:24I went to get her.
00:36:26But after a few years,
00:36:28she had no feelings
00:36:30for him.
00:36:32Until Angele was surprised
00:36:34that this Tuesday,
00:36:36he suddenly answered
00:36:38the door of his house.
00:36:54But Jane didn't want to forgive him.
00:36:56She even scolded Angele.
00:37:08I was so scared.
00:37:10I was shaking.
00:37:14Until the skin
00:37:16got mixed with the ground.
00:37:24The first thing I did
00:37:26when I entered the house
00:37:28was to step on her.
00:37:30This is where I found her.
00:37:32I saw blood.
00:37:34Angele was shocked
00:37:36when she saw her rival
00:37:38cut.
00:37:40I didn't see her cut.
00:37:42I saw that she was stabbed.
00:37:44It was important
00:37:46to get the medicine
00:37:48because she liked
00:37:50to be on the right side.
00:37:52That's where I judged her.
00:37:54I wanted to stab her.
00:37:58I was imprisoned for
00:38:006 years and 1 day
00:38:02and 12 years.
00:38:04I was imprisoned for
00:38:067 years for mutilation
00:38:08if it was proven in court.
00:38:10Our team tried to get
00:38:12Jane's body, but she didn't answer.
00:38:14I didn't want to be
00:38:16a burden to her.
00:38:18I was worried
00:38:20because I didn't know
00:38:22where to take her.
00:38:24I didn't know where to take her.
00:38:26I planned to take her
00:38:28because she was so scared.
00:38:30She was scared
00:38:32so I took her.
00:38:34Meanwhile,
00:38:36let's go back to the case of Jovencio.
00:38:38His wife stabbed him
00:38:40with a knife
00:38:42out of jealousy.
00:38:44I just took the knife
00:38:46and my mind went dark.
00:38:48She stabbed him suddenly.
00:38:52He was rushed to the hospital
00:38:54to get his
00:38:56past owner back.
00:38:58The patient was recovering from the operation.
00:39:00We observed the status
00:39:02of his past owner.
00:39:04The worst thing that can happen
00:39:06is that the past owner
00:39:08will die.
00:39:10He needs to be removed.
00:39:12The only thing left
00:39:14is his penis.
00:39:16But the other
00:39:18possessions of the past owner
00:39:20like the possession of sex,
00:39:22he won't be able to use it.
00:39:24His wife, Agnes,
00:39:26surrendered to the authorities.
00:39:28I ran away.
00:39:30I won't give up
00:39:32because I won't break the law.
00:39:34I accepted the beating
00:39:36but I couldn't accept
00:39:38the abuse.
00:39:40Remember that
00:39:42you don't accept
00:39:44the abuse of your wife.
00:39:46But you should be sure
00:39:48that it won't happen again.
00:39:50Don't be afraid to ask for help
00:39:52from your friends
00:39:54to get out of an abusive relationship.
00:39:56It's natural to be angry.
00:39:58The problem is what you will do to your anger.
00:40:00Maybe there's another way.
00:40:02Instead of cutting it, you can talk.
00:40:04It's time for you to make a decision
00:40:06if you will retain your husband or not.
00:40:08Forgive me if I did
00:40:10something wrong to you.
00:40:12I will accept any punishment
00:40:14that you will give me.
00:40:16In any relationship,
00:40:18if the trust is cut,
00:40:20it's hard to get it back.
00:40:22The old way of looking
00:40:24and the cut
00:40:26is also happiness.
00:40:36Do you believe in
00:40:38marriage
00:40:40or the simultaneous
00:40:42marriage of blood
00:40:44that others believe?
00:40:46Bad luck!
00:40:50More than 100 couples
00:40:52expressed their love
00:40:54to this country couple
00:40:56in Nara, Palawan
00:40:58including
00:41:00Charlotte and Bonifacio.
00:41:02That's the happiest thing
00:41:04that even though we lost our father,
00:41:06we are still with our mother
00:41:08when we got married.
00:41:14But after the ceremony,
00:41:16the new couple
00:41:18was hit by
00:41:20the next
00:41:22bad luck.
00:41:24My nephew and
00:41:26my older brother
00:41:28were hit.
00:41:30I took the motorcycle
00:41:32and he got disgraced.
00:41:34He got a hole here.
00:41:36He got hit by a rock.
00:41:38He got a hole in his head.
00:41:40It was really hard for him.
00:41:42I was just waiting
00:41:44but suddenly,
00:41:46he was gone.
00:41:48We had problems
00:41:50one after another.
00:41:52We couldn't breathe.
00:41:54The simultaneous marriage of
00:41:56Charlotte and Bonifacio
00:41:58is not only the son of Charlotte,
00:42:00but also the
00:42:02brother of Charlotte,
00:42:04JP.
00:42:06It is prohibited
00:42:08according to the law.
00:42:10Their marriage
00:42:12is against the law.
00:42:14If I only knew the truth,
00:42:16I wouldn't have
00:42:18married my mother
00:42:20and my brother.
00:42:28Charlotte and Bonifacio
00:42:30have been in a relationship for 10 years.
00:42:32So when they found out
00:42:34that they are going to get married,
00:42:36we immediately left
00:42:38because we thought
00:42:40that we won't get paid.
00:42:42We didn't believe
00:42:44that they will get married.
00:42:46But they are not the only ones
00:42:48who told their family.
00:42:50My son and
00:42:52my brother,
00:42:54JP,
00:42:56got married at the same time.
00:42:58I didn't want to get married
00:43:00because we are still young.
00:43:02My son doesn't have a birth certificate yet.
00:43:04I want to adopt my son
00:43:06so that when they grow up,
00:43:08they won't have any problems.
00:43:10We told my brother
00:43:12that we will just include what we have
00:43:14because we don't have money.
00:43:16But even before they got married,
00:43:18they had a lot of problems.
00:43:20Bonifacio is rich
00:43:22and it was hard
00:43:24to find a match
00:43:26for his wedding ring.
00:43:34His wife,
00:43:36Charlotte, even had an accident
00:43:38and her motorcycle fell down.
00:43:42JP and Cherry,
00:43:44we always fight
00:43:46and fight each other.
00:43:48While Charlie and Brenda
00:43:50had an argument
00:43:52about their wedding ring.
00:43:54Brenda measured
00:43:56her wedding ring.
00:43:58Why did she measure it?
00:44:00She said it's not allowed.
00:44:02I thought it was just a movie.
00:44:04I told her to measure it
00:44:06so that when we get married,
00:44:08we won't be able to sell it again.
00:44:10On the day of their wedding,
00:44:12the brides
00:44:14almost didn't make it
00:44:16to the ceremony.
00:44:18We were late on the day of the wedding
00:44:20because of the arrangements.
00:44:22We were a bit nervous
00:44:24because we thought
00:44:26that they might have
00:44:28broken something.
00:44:36But despite the arguments,
00:44:38they still
00:44:40made it to the ceremony.
00:44:46But after the wedding,
00:44:48the bad things
00:44:50continued to happen.
00:44:52I told them
00:44:54to be careful
00:44:56when you get married.
00:44:58We don't have
00:45:00anything to hide.
00:45:02We really didn't know that.
00:45:04On their way home,
00:45:06the newlyweds
00:45:08were not happy.
00:45:10It was Charlie's
00:45:12younger brother who was angry.
00:45:14When I got home,
00:45:16my brother asked me to punch him.
00:45:18I told him that I won't fight
00:45:20because I'm already drunk.
00:45:22I should be happy
00:45:24and go to my parents' situation.
00:45:30On the day of the wedding,
00:45:32I took my motorcycle.
00:45:34The next day, I took my motorcycle.
00:45:36While he was on his way home,
00:45:38I was disgraced.
00:45:40I lost my balance
00:45:42on my motorcycle.
00:45:46Charlie was injured
00:45:48and he couldn't walk.
00:45:50When I saw
00:45:52the blood on his head,
00:45:54I cried a lot.
00:45:56He had a hole here.
00:45:58He was hit by a rock.
00:46:00He was taken to the hospital.
00:46:02It's a big one.
00:46:04But the most painful
00:46:06in their family
00:46:08happened just 4 days
00:46:10after their wedding.
00:46:12When Charlie's mother,
00:46:14Charito, was attacked
00:46:16by high blood.
00:46:18I was happy
00:46:20when I got to Nara's house.
00:46:22I saw her
00:46:24and she was suddenly weak.
00:46:26I saw her here
00:46:28and her head was injured.
00:46:30She couldn't go down.
00:46:32She was getting hot.
00:46:34It was really hard for her.
00:46:36So I decided
00:46:38to take her to the hospital.
00:46:40After 4 days in the hospital,
00:46:42Charito
00:46:44died.
00:46:46There was a bullet
00:46:48in his head
00:46:50because of his death.
00:46:52I believed that
00:46:54the death was real
00:46:56because I followed
00:46:58our problems.
00:47:00I didn't rest.
00:47:02If I only knew the truth,
00:47:04I wouldn't have married
00:47:06my mother and brother.
00:47:08But is the truth
00:47:10the truth?
00:47:12We always look for a reason
00:47:14why this happened.
00:47:16That's why we go to the
00:47:18funeral to give
00:47:20an answer to our
00:47:22grievances.
00:47:24We don't have a closure
00:47:26and there's no evidence
00:47:28to prove that
00:47:30there's a reason
00:47:32to follow.
00:47:34Some of the
00:47:3610 siblings
00:47:38got married
00:47:40within a year.
00:47:42That's not forbidden.
00:47:44Why would we forbid it?
00:47:46They wanted to get married.
00:47:48In the end,
00:47:50Charlotte believed that
00:47:52her mother, Charito,
00:47:54would not be able to
00:47:56break the curse.
00:47:58Because of his death,
00:48:00I thought that he was the one
00:48:02who followed the curse.
00:48:04I hope that
00:48:06this will be the last
00:48:08trial that comes to us.
00:48:10I hope that there will be
00:48:12no more tragedies.
00:48:14It's not right to control
00:48:16our beliefs
00:48:18even though
00:48:20we know that
00:48:22nothing will be lost
00:48:24if we will follow
00:48:26the old beliefs.
00:48:28But we can also
00:48:30strengthen our beliefs.
00:48:32If you don't want it to happen,
00:48:34don't think
00:48:36and believe.
00:48:42It's a good thing that
00:48:44there's a signal
00:48:46in Malaparaisong Island
00:48:48of Balabac, Palawan.
00:48:50Because the people
00:48:52who live there,
00:48:54from Siwid,
00:48:56are being exiled.
00:48:58In the so-called
00:49:00Last Frontier of the Last Frontier,
00:49:02there's no one
00:49:04but the people of Balabac,
00:49:06in Palawan.
00:49:08There's a so-called
00:49:10Pagong Paraiso.
00:49:12It's the land
00:49:14of the Mulgog tribes,
00:49:16the island of Marihangin.
00:49:18It's a good thing
00:49:20that we can live there.
00:49:22The sand is white and clean.
00:49:24I'm so lucky to live there.
00:49:26I'm used to live there.
00:49:28That's where we grew up.
00:49:34For several generations,
00:49:36in the vastness of the forest
00:49:38and white-white
00:49:40swamp,
00:49:42their lives and livelihoods
00:49:44include planting
00:49:46seaweeds
00:49:48or agar-agar.
00:49:50It can be used as gelatin
00:49:52or other fertilizers
00:49:54to thicken the soups.
00:49:56It can also be processed
00:49:58to make paper, cloth,
00:50:00and cosmetic products.
00:50:02If you start planting,
00:50:04within 15 days, you'll harvest.
00:50:06But the peaceful life
00:50:08on the island
00:50:10was ruined.
00:50:13Once upon a time,
00:50:15they were attacked by armed men.
00:50:27The villagers were threatened
00:50:29and shot by the armed men.
00:50:36Others were even shot.
00:50:42The armed men
00:50:44forced the villagers
00:50:46to leave the island.
00:50:48They said they'll do ecotourism
00:50:50to make more money.
00:50:58Even if they give me a million pesos,
00:51:00I won't leave.
00:51:02They should've helped those who don't have money.
00:51:04They shouldn't have robbed them.
00:51:06Their title is questionable.
00:51:08We can't fight the court
00:51:10because our enemies
00:51:12are just our relatives.
00:51:14It's painful.
00:51:16We can feel
00:51:18what they're doing to us.
00:51:24Where will they stop
00:51:26fighting
00:51:28on their land?
00:51:30This is our land!
00:51:38Why are you killing us?
00:51:40The riot happened on June 29.
00:51:42This is our land!
00:51:44This is our land!
00:51:46Suddenly, someone shouted
00:51:48that a man was shot
00:51:50on the back of the island.
00:51:52He was shot in the face.
00:51:54Why are you shooting us?
00:51:56We were about to be shot
00:51:58but they shot us again.
00:52:02It was a real bullet.
00:52:04We didn't know
00:52:06the armed men
00:52:08because they were wearing a mask.
00:52:10Don't shoot! We don't have a gun!
00:52:12Even minors are not safe.
00:52:14He shot me.
00:52:16When he shot me,
00:52:18the bullet hit the sea.
00:52:20I was so scared.
00:52:22I lost myself.
00:52:24It was my first time to be shot.
00:52:26Even though they have weapons,
00:52:28we continue to fight
00:52:30so that they can leave the island.
00:52:32We fought them bravely.
00:52:34Until the armed men
00:52:36entered the jungle.
00:52:38We were shot
00:52:40by the armed men.
00:52:42Some of my friends were inside
00:52:44but they couldn't get near us
00:52:46because there was no signal.
00:52:48We chased them to the jungle.
00:52:50We chased them to the end of the jungle.
00:52:52There was no food.
00:52:54We chased them to the end of the jungle.
00:52:56They asked for help from the authorities.
00:52:58But because of the distance of the island,
00:53:00they had to wait for 5 hours
00:53:02before they could reach the island.
00:53:04If something happened to us,
00:53:06we would have been dead
00:53:08before our car could reach the island.
00:53:10They said that they don't have a car.
00:53:12When they arrived,
00:53:14we were hoping that they would help us.
00:53:16But when they arrived,
00:53:18the armed men shot us.
00:53:20They let us leave.
00:53:24We are here!
00:53:26We are here!
00:53:28We are here!
00:53:30We are here!
00:53:32The tension on the island
00:53:34is far from the
00:53:36way they used to live.
00:53:40The island of Marihangin
00:53:42has an area of 38 hectares.
00:53:44It is home to almost 1,000
00:53:46members of the Molbog tribe.
00:53:48Even back then,
00:53:50many people were interested in the island
00:53:52because of its rich nature.
00:53:54But their land
00:53:56was not for sale.
00:53:58Especially, their ancestors
00:54:00were buried here.
00:54:02Our grave can't be buried here.
00:54:04It's prohibited.
00:54:06It's bad for the ancestors.
00:54:08We can't leave it there.
00:54:10We can only leave our parents there.
00:54:16This is the proof
00:54:18that our ancestors
00:54:20built this island.
00:54:22According to their documents,
00:54:24the island of Marihangin
00:54:26is owned by a man
00:54:28named Hatib Issa.
00:54:30He is my grandfather.
00:54:32The Department of Agrarian Reform
00:54:34issued a Notice of Coverage
00:54:36in 2014.
00:54:38It's a program to
00:54:40divide the land
00:54:42among the poor farmers.
00:54:44But they were shocked
00:54:46when last year,
00:54:48the Molbog tribe was evicted
00:54:50because the island was bought
00:54:52by a private company.
00:54:54In 2023,
00:54:56the company petitioned.
00:54:58Within a year,
00:55:00they issued a decision
00:55:02to exempt them from the Notice of Coverage.
00:55:04They said they will do ecotourism.
00:55:06They also increased their income.
00:55:08In Marihangin,
00:55:10it is a part of 25,000 hectares
00:55:12of White Beach Tourism Plan.
00:55:14Boracay is 2,000 hectares.
00:55:16This is 12 times larger.
00:55:18From Boracay, 2 million tourists
00:55:20come every year.
00:55:22They go to El Nido
00:55:24and Coron.
00:55:26Many people go to the south,
00:55:28Balaba.
00:55:30That's why people are being evicted
00:55:32to develop the place.
00:55:34In 1984,
00:55:36the Register of Deeds
00:55:38issued a notice.
00:55:40This is a private property
00:55:42of a private individual.
00:55:44The land that belongs
00:55:46to Marihangin
00:55:48was evicted
00:55:50by the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law.
00:55:52The tribe approved it.
00:55:54They immediately appealed
00:55:56to the Department of Agrarian Reform.
00:55:58When they petitioned in 2023,
00:56:00we were happy because we thought
00:56:02the land would be given to us.
00:56:04But it was the other way around.
00:56:06When they came back,
00:56:08the people of San Miguel Corporation
00:56:10joined them and gave us money.
00:56:12They claim
00:56:14that they have a title
00:56:16because it is recognized by the law.
00:56:18But for us,
00:56:20we know our rights
00:56:22because since the time of our ancestors,
00:56:24they have been there.
00:56:26We want to make it clear
00:56:28that there is no violation.
00:56:30What happened here
00:56:32is the validation.
00:56:34They conducted a joint validation
00:56:36activity to find out
00:56:38what the state really is.
00:56:40This land does not belong
00:56:42to agriculture.
00:56:44The reason is that
00:56:46there is no potable water
00:56:48and it is surrounded
00:56:50by sand.
00:56:52It is made up of forests,
00:56:54corals, and mangrove areas.
00:56:56We are removing the land
00:56:58from Marihangin Island
00:57:00under the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law.
00:57:02If this is really
00:57:04their ancestral domain,
00:57:06it is also a bit dangerous
00:57:08to issue a Notice of Coverage.
00:57:10All ancestral domains
00:57:12are not allowed
00:57:14to be included
00:57:16in the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law.
00:57:18They also showed
00:57:20their waiver.
00:57:22It says that
00:57:24my parents gave their rights
00:57:26to the people
00:57:28named in the title.
00:57:30We are denying this.
00:57:32There are signatures that we are not related.
00:57:34So they have no right to sign
00:57:36a waiver.
00:57:38One of the signatories of the waiver
00:57:40is the former official of the barangay,
00:57:42Toto.
00:57:44Residents are questioning him.
00:57:46Toto Isa is not the only one
00:57:48who uses this title.
00:57:50He uses it casually.
00:57:52We don't know who used this title.
00:57:54It is also stated here
00:57:56that Hatib Isa
00:57:58died in 1930.
00:58:00If he died at that time,
00:58:02how could he get
00:58:04his nomination in 1945
00:58:06until 1963?
00:58:08While the two of Hatib Isa's
00:58:10eight children
00:58:12have no signature or thumb mark
00:58:14in the waiver.
00:58:16It means that their right on the island
00:58:18is still theirs.
00:58:22The calamity of our lives
00:58:24is starting.
00:58:26Our lives are becoming
00:58:28more and more miserable
00:58:30because of their threats to us.
00:58:32They are harassing us.
00:58:34They are sending us demand letters.
00:58:36If we don't leave,
00:58:38they will file a case
00:58:40and fine us 2 million pesos.
00:58:42The residents did not leave.
00:58:44They were fined from 75 to 100 thousand pesos
00:58:46just to leave the island.
00:58:48Even if they give me
00:58:50a million pesos,
00:58:52I don't need it.
00:58:54We only earn 1,000 pesos a month.
00:58:56As long as our food is good.
00:58:58It's a waste.
00:59:00We don't have anything like that.
00:59:02As long as we are there,
00:59:04we can earn a living.
00:59:06But because of the hardship of life,
00:59:08Jason gave.
00:59:10He received money
00:59:12and moved to the mainland.
00:59:14We don't have a house.
00:59:16We don't have anything to eat.
00:59:18And what happened to them?
00:59:20The sea is bad.
00:59:22If you don't plant seaweed,
00:59:24we will die.
00:59:26That's why Jason
00:59:29Come on, shoot us!
00:59:31Meanwhile,
00:59:33after the recent encounter
00:59:35on the island,
00:59:37the residents still noticed
00:59:39armed men
00:59:41around them.
00:59:43Here are the armed men.
00:59:45That's why Mark Anthony's group
00:59:47is hoping to plant seaweed
00:59:49whenever they go abroad.
00:59:51We can't focus on
00:59:53finding food because
00:59:55our minds are with our families on the island.
00:59:58We planted the seaweed,
01:00:00but why are they forcing us
01:00:02to plant it?
01:00:04Who will ask us for help?
01:00:06Actually, our situation is very difficult
01:00:08but they are making it more difficult for us.
01:00:12But who are the armed men
01:00:14who responded to the threats?
01:00:16They say they are
01:00:18the company's guards.
01:00:20When we asked them,
01:00:22they said they were ordered by San Miguel Corporation
01:00:24to guard the island.
01:00:27We are also afraid
01:00:29that they will guard us,
01:00:31that they will be armed.
01:00:33It's painful.
01:00:35We can feel
01:00:37what they are doing to us,
01:00:39to the poor.
01:00:41This is our land!
01:00:45They will leave us there,
01:00:47our own land.
01:00:49That's the only truth we have.
01:00:51Their title is questionable.
01:00:53We can't fight in court
01:00:55and I hope the government
01:00:57will be fair to us.
01:00:59They are not stealing from us,
01:01:01they are stealing from us.
01:01:03Our team tried to get
01:01:05a statement from San Miguel Corporation
01:01:07to see if they have anything to say
01:01:09to the armed men of Diumano
01:01:11who are causing trouble on the island
01:01:13and their reaction to Diumano.
01:01:15It's a questionable title
01:01:17that they are giving to the farmers.
01:01:19But they didn't respond.
01:01:21What is the chance
01:01:23that our small fishermen,
01:01:25our seaweed farmers,
01:01:27maybe the Supreme Court,
01:01:29the Court of Public Opinion,
01:01:31hopefully,
01:01:33if it works,
01:01:35that it will be known
01:01:37to our 118 million population.
01:01:39The area is part of the
01:01:41ancestral domain claim
01:01:43of the Isis-Isipis.
01:01:45This means, ma'am,
01:01:47that the Isis-Isipis have already been
01:01:49proven in the commission
01:01:51that there are only four titles
01:01:53here in Sitio Maria Hangin.
01:01:55And based on IPRA,
01:01:57the Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act,
01:01:59under Section 56,
01:02:01the previous rights
01:02:03over the area were violated.
01:02:05If the area is really titled,
01:02:07the residents will still be claimed
01:02:09by the residents, including the waters.
01:02:11The Isis-Isipis also have proper
01:02:13assistance.
01:02:15Because when it comes to assistance,
01:02:17of course, our mandate is only peace.
01:02:19The person holding the title
01:02:21and the person named
01:02:23in the title is the one who has a fight there.
01:02:25If it is valid or
01:02:27tampered,
01:02:29it needs to be submitted for further investigation.
01:02:31I hope that we will be helped
01:02:33as a group.
01:02:35We are very grateful.
01:02:37If our government does not hear us,
01:02:39we call for you to notice
01:02:41our issue.
01:02:43When it comes to legal way,
01:02:45we have no ability,
01:02:47we do not fight
01:02:49in a way that we know that there is no justice.
01:02:51Meanwhile, there are some NGOs
01:02:53or non-government organizations
01:02:55that are now in contact
01:02:57with the Mulbong tribe.
01:02:59The Ateneo Human Rights Center
01:03:01has already started to accept support.
01:03:03Three Bishops of Palawan
01:03:05are our allies.
01:03:07And they will gradually talk
01:03:09to the Catholic Bishops Conference
01:03:11of the Philippines.
01:03:13Our lawyers now,
01:03:15together with the Human Rights Commission,
01:03:17how can they cancel
01:03:19those pecking titles?
01:03:21No matter what they do to us,
01:03:23we will not leave.
01:03:25Until we die, we will fight
01:03:27for our rights.
01:03:31No man is an island.
01:03:33That is why the members
01:03:35of the Mulbong tribe
01:03:37hope to hear
01:03:39their little voices.
01:03:41Long live the Mulbong tribe!
01:03:43Long live the Mulbong tribe!
01:03:45And to reach those
01:03:47who are fighting
01:03:49for their land
01:03:51that is theirs.
01:04:03The famous work
01:04:05of the National Artist for Painting
01:04:07Fernando Amorsolo
01:04:09was stolen
01:04:11from a private museum
01:04:13in Negros Occidental.
01:04:15The theft
01:04:17was caught by CCTV.
01:04:19Who are
01:04:21the
01:04:23violent thieves?
01:04:27A witness to the colorful
01:04:29and colorful life
01:04:31of a noble family
01:04:33in Silay Negros Occidental
01:04:35is this ancestral house.
01:04:37This is the two-story
01:04:39house of the Hofileña family.
01:04:41It was built
01:04:43in the 1930s
01:04:45when the Hofileña
01:04:47Ancestral House
01:04:49was turned into a museum.
01:04:51This house was built in 1934
01:04:53by Manuel Hofileña
01:04:55for his wife Hilda
01:04:57and his children.
01:04:59I am the youngest child of the
01:05:01Manuel Hofileña family.
01:05:03Not only
01:05:05the old equipment
01:05:07of the Hofileña family
01:05:09can be seen here,
01:05:11but also
01:05:13their huge
01:05:15art collection.
01:05:17These are the works
01:05:19of the most famous
01:05:21artists of the country.
01:05:23This is by Hidalgo
01:05:25and Juan Luna
01:05:27who joined the competition
01:05:29in Paris before.
01:05:31This is by Ben Cab,
01:05:33Manansala,
01:05:35and one of the most famous
01:05:37here is the painting
01:05:39of the national artist,
01:05:41Fernando Amorsolo.
01:05:43This Amorsolo painting
01:05:45was sold in Makati
01:05:47in 2019 for almost Php 47 million.
01:05:49That's why
01:05:51the face of the Hofileña family
01:05:53could hardly be painted
01:05:55when this painting
01:05:57of Amorsolo was stolen.
01:05:59It was past 11 in the morning
01:06:01when I climbed up here
01:06:03and saw this painting.
01:06:07The theft of the painting
01:06:09was caught on CCTV.
01:06:11Who was the culprit
01:06:13who stole the painting
01:06:15of Fernando Amorsolo?
01:06:17We pray that the painting
01:06:19of Amorsolo will be returned.
01:06:21The first suspect
01:06:23is the one who stole the painting.
01:06:29The one who stole the painting
01:06:31of Fernando Amorsolo
01:06:33is the one who stole the painting
01:06:35of Mango Harvesters
01:06:37painted by Amorsolo
01:06:39in 1936.
01:06:41Here, you can see a woman
01:06:43wearing a sari
01:06:45with a boy
01:06:47eating mangoes.
01:06:49The 12 x 18 inches painting
01:06:51is part of the collection
01:06:53of Ramon Hofileña.
01:06:55Fernando Amorsolo and Ramon Hofileña
01:06:57attended art exhibits
01:06:59and became friends.
01:07:01He even bought
01:07:03a painting of Fernando Amorsolo
01:07:05named Mango Harvesters
01:07:07which is now
01:07:0988 years old.
01:07:11Amorsolo shows
01:07:13that poverty is a way of life.
01:07:15That's why people
01:07:17do it together
01:07:19and they are happy doing it.
01:07:21Fernando Amorsolo
01:07:23is considered the Grand Old Man
01:07:25of Philippine Art
01:07:27which is a huge contribution
01:07:29to the art and culture of our country.
01:07:31When he shows his paintings,
01:07:33usually, he plants
01:07:35the scenery.
01:07:37You can see his appreciation
01:07:39for beauty
01:07:41because most of his
01:07:43paintings or portraits
01:07:45are of beautiful women.
01:07:47In 1972,
01:07:49he was nominated
01:07:51as the first national artist
01:07:53of the Philippines.
01:07:55Amorsolo is
01:07:57the most famous painter
01:07:59in contemporary times.
01:08:01All of his paintings
01:08:03are priceless.
01:08:05According to one of the
01:08:07museum's executives, Jimmy,
01:08:09the people who stole the paintings
01:08:11were the guests
01:08:13on the morning of July 3.
01:08:15That day, there were five people
01:08:17climbing up.
01:08:19The gardener accompanied them
01:08:21because at that time, there was no tourist guide
01:08:23on duty.
01:08:25The gardener went down
01:08:27to let the others in.
01:08:29He left the people up there.
01:08:31The next thing they noticed
01:08:33was that at 10 a.m.,
01:08:35Amorsolo's paintings were gone.
01:08:37Our investigator went to
01:08:39the theft and robbery section.
01:08:41We saw in the initial video
01:08:43of the CCTV
01:08:45who took the paintings.
01:08:47Where is
01:08:49Amorsolo's paintings?
01:08:51The police are now
01:08:53investigating
01:08:55to find out
01:08:57who stole the paintings
01:08:59and the strongest evidence
01:09:01is the CCTV footage
01:09:03where the thief
01:09:05was caught in the act.
01:09:07When the CCTV
01:09:09was captured
01:09:11in the second floor of the museum,
01:09:13it was found
01:09:15that there were
01:09:17five guests.
01:09:19Two of them were wearing
01:09:21hats and face masks.
01:09:23It was noticed that
01:09:25someone was peeping
01:09:27on the ground floor
01:09:29before they approached
01:09:31Amorsolo's paintings.
01:09:33The man even looked
01:09:35at the back of the paintings
01:09:37and when the guests turned around,
01:09:39he easily removed it
01:09:41from the wall
01:09:43and placed it in the next room.
01:09:45One of the guests noticed
01:09:47that the paintings
01:09:49were gone.
01:09:51While the CCTV
01:09:53captured the man's room,
01:09:55it was seen
01:09:57how he put the paintings
01:09:59in his bag.
01:10:01The suspect immediately came out
01:10:03and accompanied
01:10:05the other guests.
01:10:07The two suspects easily
01:10:09carried Amorsolo's paintings.
01:10:13When I passed by Pedicab,
01:10:15they were riding a jeep to the plaza.
01:10:17In this CCTV footage
01:10:19captured from the plaza,
01:10:21we can see the two
01:10:23riding a jeep to Bacolod City.
01:10:25One of the suspects
01:10:27was already arrested by the police
01:10:29even though they can't
01:10:31name him.
01:10:33We found out that
01:10:35there were previous cases
01:10:37here in Bacolod in 2022.
01:10:39He was also charged with theft.
01:10:43The unfortunate theft
01:10:45of Amorsolo paintings,
01:10:47it's a big impact because
01:10:49almost all the prominent Filipino masters
01:10:51are in the museum.
01:10:53It is denying the locality
01:10:55of an opportunity to witness
01:10:57a work of a national artist.
01:10:59Just this Friday,
01:11:01the Silay City police
01:11:03arrived and stole
01:11:05Amorsolo paintings
01:11:07in the Hofilenia Ancestral House
01:11:09in Mataan, Deumano,
01:11:11I think Amorsolo
01:11:13painted the same
01:11:15in 2019,
01:11:17almost 47 million.
01:11:19Who was the thief
01:11:21who stole the masterpiece
01:11:23of Fernando Amorsolo?
01:11:25This is the missing painting.
01:11:27Next, the painting of the national artist
01:11:29Fernando Amorsolo
01:11:31was stolen.
01:11:35Just this Friday,
01:11:37the Silay City police
01:11:39arrived and stole
01:11:41Amorsolo paintings
01:11:43in the Hofilenia Ancestral House
01:11:45in Mataan, Deumano,
01:11:47in Manila.
01:11:49I'm very comfortable with telling
01:11:51you and everyone that
01:11:53this is the missing painting.
01:11:55Who was the thief
01:11:57who stole the masterpiece
01:11:59of Fernando Amorsolo?
01:12:03Two people were arrested
01:12:05in the museum
01:12:07that we saw in the CCTV.
01:12:09The two thieves
01:12:11had a contact
01:12:13who ordered them and financed
01:12:15to get the painting.
01:12:17From the airport in Iloilo,
01:12:19our two suspects
01:12:21were brought to Manila
01:12:23and brought to the place
01:12:25where they were ordered.
01:12:27The one who financed
01:12:29recognized the thief.
01:12:31They didn't know that
01:12:33he was the one who brought the painting.
01:12:35Suspects can be charged
01:12:37with theft.
01:12:39In this case, if the painting
01:12:41is worth more than
01:12:432.2 million pesos,
01:12:45the sentence is 10 years and 1 day
01:12:47up to 12 years of imprisonment.
01:12:49In the case of
01:12:51an Amorsolo painting that we can say
01:12:53is a national treasure,
01:12:55we can say that it is priceless but based on the assessed value
01:12:57which is 50 million,
01:12:59the computation of this
01:13:01is one year for every
01:13:03in excess of 2.2 million
01:13:05for as long as
01:13:07the total of 20 years of imprisonment
01:13:09will not exceed.
01:13:11We are asking the public to help
01:13:13in taking care of our
01:13:15Minana culture, especially
01:13:17the paintings that are displayed in museums
01:13:19and galleries.
01:13:21Because this heritage is not only for us
01:13:23but for the next generations.
01:13:25Now, we will continue
01:13:27and we added
01:13:29CCTV and guards.
01:13:31This painting
01:13:33of Fernando Amorsolo
01:13:35and other national artists
01:13:37or artists of the cinema
01:13:39is a treasure of our culture
01:13:41that should be
01:13:43owned by many Filipinos
01:13:45and not only in the custody
01:13:47of criminals.
01:13:53Thank you for watching,
