00:00A boat sank in Guagua, Pampanga.
00:05More than 20 students were on board.
00:08C.J. Torrida of GMA Regional TV has a report.
00:16Residents are rushing to get to a boat in the river in Barangay Bankal, Guagua, Pampanga.
00:25The boat is slowly sinking.
00:29More than 20 students, from Grade 1 to Grade 4, are on board.
00:33According to one of the parents, the children were allowed to go home at 11.30am this Monday
00:38when their boat sank.
00:41The children wanted to go home immediately, so they went to the first aid station.
00:45The boatman was not able to control the boat.
00:47The children were helped by concerned citizens and a few boatmen.
00:51The boat sank. I didn't expect the children to be so small.
00:55C.J. Torrida of GMA Regional TV has a report for GMA Integrated News.
01:02The proposed budget for the next year is 6.352 trillion pesos.
01:10According to the Philippines, the Office of the Vice President has a budget of more than 700 million pesos.
01:16More than half of the proposed budget is 2 billion pesos.
01:20Here is my report.
01:25The interpellations on the proposed budget on the Office of the Vice President is hereby terminated.
01:32The camera has finished the discussion on the proposed budget of the Office of the Vice President for the next year.
01:37The OVP approved a budget of 733 million pesos based on the recommendation of the Committee on Appropriations.
01:44The fund raised from the original 2 billion pesos requested by the OVP was transferred to another agency.
01:51These agencies will be the one to implement this program according, Mr. Chair,
01:57to the arrangement and the mechanism that the Office of the Vice President would enter into.
02:01But what did ACT Teachers Party List Representative Franz Castro think?
02:05The fund is just for the salary that the OVP should give.
02:09This 733 million is still big in the budget of the Office of the Vice President.
02:16We don't know where to use it, where the fund was used.
02:21The budget I'm proposing to the Office of the Vice President is P529,593,700.
02:32House Speaker Martin Romualdez said that he understands the failure of some lawmakers.
02:38But he's adamant that the OVP should be reduced or given a zero budget.
02:43In the manifestation of Camarines Sur, Rep. Gabriel Bordado,
02:47he compared the fund requested by Duterte to the fund of former Vice President Lenny Robredo, which is only P700 million pesos.
02:55Vice President Robredo's office was able to implement impactful, transparent programs
03:04with every peso accounted for and allocated prudently.
03:12Duterte was a no-show again earlier.
03:15So who is the OVP's fault in delaying their budget in the plenary?
03:20The answer to the question of budget deliberation is due to the money of the people.
03:29This is not a choice that can be foregone.
03:33Is he abandoning his duty as Vice President?
03:38But the Vice President said,
03:40I need to answer to the 32 million people who voted for me, not just one or two.
03:49That's why I will not leave this place.
03:53He will only attend the budget hearing of the Senate.
03:56He did not expect to be able to return the budget allocated by the committee to the House of Representatives.
04:03Senator Alan Peter Cayetano and Senator Mig Zubiri were angry.
04:07This is related to the resolution of Cayetano,
04:10which recommends that the district be included with the Embo barangay,
04:15which was transferred to Taguig from Makati,
04:18so that congressmen can vote in the upcoming election.
04:21Mav Gonzalez has a report.
04:29Senator Alan Peter Cayetano and Senator Mig Zubiri argued in the session last night.
04:49This is too important.
04:50It happened after Cayetano asked to discuss the Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 23 for the Embo barangay.
04:58These places were formerly owned by Makati City.
05:01But there was a territorial dispute,
05:04and the Supreme Court decided to transfer the jurisdiction of these places to Taguig City in 2022.
05:10There is no law where the congressional district in Taguig will be a part of the Embo barangays.
05:15Without that, congressmen will not be able to vote more than 200,000 registered voters in the upcoming election.
05:22For Cayetano, this is urgent, especially since the filing of the Certificate of Candidacy is near.
05:45I can state for the record, Mr. President, it has nothing to do with Makati anymore.
05:49Because all of these barangays are now under Taguig, being administered by Taguig,
05:56and the problem is they will not be able to vote for any…
06:00We ask for just a one-minute suspension, Mr. President.
06:02One-minute suspension, Mr. President.
06:04Senate suspended.
06:06That's where Cayetano and Zubiri argued.
06:08Don't shout at me.
06:09Don't talk to me.
06:11That's as far as you go.
06:12You're still abroad.
06:14After a heated discussion, after the session ended, they hugged each other.
06:19If I raise my voice, I apologize if I raise my voice.
06:22Okay?
06:23If it will help you, maybe we can pass this, we can take it up tomorrow.
06:27I was with Senate President Zubiri since 1998.
06:31So maybe we're entitled to one heated argument, which is tonight.
06:35Zubiri didn't laugh when Senator Nancy Gulay passed by earlier.
06:39I'm sorry.
06:42Zubiri said that there was a miscommunication.
06:45I just said that there should be a consultation.
06:48He explained that it's just a mere request of Congress, then okay.
06:52Cayetano refused to comment on the issue.
06:54Comelec said that they will wait for the Congress to pass on the issue in Emo Barangays.

07:06More than four people have been arrested in Cebu City after being caught in a robbery.
07:14Some of them are senior citizens.
07:17According to the police, the suspects were charged with 50 to 500 pesos.
07:22Four improvised boxes were confiscated with 32 robberies.

07:37They will be charged with violating the Anti-Illegal Gambling Law.
07:41According to the D.E.N.R., robberies under the Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act are also prohibited.
07:52Alice Guo confirmed in the Executive Session that she is an important personality who is being involved in the operation of illegal gambling.
08:00Senator Arisa Ontiveros said that this is also a confirmation of the theory shared by the Senate Committee last month.
08:09Ontiveros did not give details because the Executive Session was confidential.
08:15Senator J.B. Ejercito said that an international crime syndicate is behind the illegal gambling and that Guo is just a front.
08:24DOJ Assistant Secretary Mico Clavano said that it is possible for Guo to be a state witness if he discovers that he is not the most guilty.

10:15Aubrey Carampel is reporting for GMA Integrated News.
10:20Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
10:24Senator Alan Peter Cayetano and Senator Juan Miguel Zubiri are shouting and are about to reach the Senate tonight.
10:34The tension is rooted in the upcoming resolution where the district will include the Embo barangays that were moved to Taguig from Makati.
10:42While this is not happening, the voters will not be able to vote in the place of their congressman in the upcoming election.
10:49The outcome of the election will be determined by the vote of the people.
10:54Under the rules, you have one way.
10:58No, no, no. Don't give me that.
11:00Don't give me that.
11:01Don't give me that.
11:02Don't give me that.
11:03Don't give me that.

11:49In Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 23, Kayatano is acting for the so-called Embo Barangays
11:55or Enlisted Men's Barrios, a place that used to be part of the City of Makati.
12:00But it fell into a territorial dispute, and in the Supreme Court's decision in 2022,
12:05the jurisdiction was transferred to them in the City of Taguig.
12:09However, there is no law that states that the Congressional District in Taguig is part
12:13of the Embo Barangays.
12:14And while this is not yet there, Komalek said that more than 200,000 registered voters
12:21for their congressmen in the upcoming election will not be able to vote.
12:24In a session last night, Kayatano asked to discuss the resulting resolution where the
12:30district will include every Embo Barangay because the situation is urgent and the filing
12:36of the Certificate of Candidacy is near.
12:38But this was questioned by Tony Zubiri.
12:39This was not in the daily agenda.
12:41And this particular issue is on the disenfranchisement of these 10 Embo Barangays.
12:46However, Your Honor, I'm trying to get in touch with our colleague who is from Makati
12:50and I do not know, does this have any implication to Senator Binay's representation?
12:57I can state for the record, Mr. President, it has nothing to do with Makati anymore.
13:01Because all of these barangays are now under Taguig, being administered by Taguig.
13:08The problem is they will not be able to vote for any…
13:11Just a one-minute suspension.
13:13One-minute suspension, Mr. President.
13:15And this is where the fight and heated argument between the two started.
13:19After the session, the two calmed down.
13:22If I raised my voice, it's because, you know, I was…
13:25It didn't have to go that way.
13:28And I apologize if I raised my voice.
13:30Okay?
13:31If it will help you, maybe we can pass this, we can take it up tomorrow.
13:35We did give due courtesy to Senator Nancy, even if this involves barangays that are no longer part of Makati.
13:42But because the chair thought it used to belong to Makati, we cleared it with her.
13:47The response was, she can confirm or deny the same tomorrow.
13:52It has nothing to do with Makati because it has everything to do with Taguig.
13:58In 1998, I was with Senate President Zubiri.
14:01So, maybe we're entitled to one heated argument, which is tonight.
14:05In the end, the two senators shook hands and hugged.
14:08The Senate also adopted a resolution that is not a law, but only expresses the sentiments of the senators.
14:15Earlier, Zubiri got a joke when Senator Nancy Binay passed by.
14:21Zubiri said, this is just a miscommunication.
14:24It would have been avoided if there was a consultation with the senators.
14:28When he explained, it's just a mere request of Congress, then okay.
14:32We already agreed with what happened.
14:34We already agreed that I think we shouldn't let our emotions run wild.
14:41Kayatano refused to comment on the issue.
14:43GMA Integrated News went to Embo Barangay in Taguig and asked the residents there to vote for their congressman.
14:52We are used to having a congressman every time we vote.
14:57It's our first time that there's no congressman in Embo.
15:01It's ugly.
15:03What's ugly?
15:04That we can't vote for a congressman.
15:12Komalek said, they will wait for the congressman's decision on this issue.
15:16For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales, 24 Hours.
