00:00Senator Rafi Tulfo confirmed that his son, a congressman, was the driver of the SUV that passed through the EDSA busway last week.
00:10Although it does not have an 8 plate, it has a sticker of the official seal of the House of Representatives.
00:17Mark Salazar was able to see it.
00:22This Thursday, the Special and Intelligence Committee for Transportation, or SAICT,
00:27approved this SUV because it is prohibited in the EDSA busway,
00:31as well as its convoy, which is another black SUV.
00:34The first thing the lead guard saw was a sticker of the official seal of the House of Representatives.
00:40The vehicle's registration was named after Quezon City's 2nd District Representative, Ralph Wendel Tulfo,
00:48the son of Senator Rafi Tulfo, although he was not the driver.
00:52Congressman Tulfo did not respond to our attempt to get a panic,
00:56but the Senate media was able to talk to his father.
01:22For Senator Tulfo, it was enough for him to get a ticket and ask for his son's approval.
01:28It was not his son who abused, but his driver.
01:53He was in a hurry.
01:59But Senator Tulfo's son was angry when he confirmed that he was the driver of this vehicle.
02:04I scolded him. I told him.
02:07Did your son scold you?
02:09I scolded him. He apologized to me. I told him to apologize to the convoy.
02:14Sir, who was with the convoy?
02:18He was with the convoy.
02:21We are still trying to get a panic about this vehicle.
02:25For GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar, 24 Hours.
02:33The Supreme Court approved the petition to cancel the 2025 national budget
02:40due to the presence of blanks in the BICAM report based on this.
02:46Jonathan Andar has the floor.
02:51Davao City Rep. Isidro Ungab and former Executive Secretary Atty. Vic Rodriguez
02:57showed the petition they approved in the Supreme Court
03:00to cancel the 6.3 trillion pesos 2025 national budget.
03:06The presence of blanks in the BICAM report based on the 2025 General Appropriations Act
03:17was answered by House Speaker Martin Romualdez, Senate President Cheese Escudero,
03:23and Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin.
03:25We welcome any petitions to question any law that Congress passes.
03:30And for me, this is an opportunity to get involved in the process of the budget.
03:34The Supreme Court is the third branch of the government.
03:37This should not be feared. This should not be neglected.
03:40This is a part of our democracy.
03:43Sir, can you comment on the petition of the Supreme Court?
03:46And on their petition to sue the Supreme Court?
03:49I'll get back to you.
03:50Bersamin said that the petition has not been served to him yet.
03:54That's why he hasn't seen the content of it yet.
03:56Earlier, JM Integrated News saw a copy of the BICAM report of the 2025 budget
04:01from the Legislative Library, Archives, and Museum of the Camera.
04:04Here, you can see that there are blanks in the document.
04:08Yesterday, House Appropriations Chairman Rep. Stella Kimbo admitted
04:12that there are blank items in the BICAM report.
04:15But this will not affect the validity of the budget
04:18because the funds have already been discussed for these items.
04:21It was also mentioned in the Supreme Court petition of Naunga Bat-Rodriguez
04:24that the addition of the Camera and Senate to their own budget
04:28is against the rule of law that was passed by the President.
04:32They said that the biggest budget allocation was just for education
04:36because some institutions under the Defense and Interior and Local Government Department
04:41are also against the Constitution of removing the PhilHealth fund.
04:46But they said that Nau Del Sur Rep. Zia Alonto Adiong, Vice Chairman of the Appropriations Committee,
04:51PhilHealth is technically an income-generating agency.
04:58So it's a wrong nomenclature to say that this is a budget that is given annually.
05:03It's a subsidy of the government.
05:05For JMA Integrated News, Jonathan Andal.
05:08Jonathan Andal for 24 Hours.
05:11The public viewing of the movie Queen of Philippine Movies, Gloria Romero,
05:15was filled with love and support.
05:20Tomorrow, Romero's movie will be premiered
05:23and his family, friends, colleagues, and fans will miss it.
05:27Obrey Carampel has the report.
05:30Almost none of the people who wanted to support the Philippine movie icon, Gloria Romero, came.
05:39Including former President Joseph Estrada, who also works for Tita Glo.
05:45There's also Iza Calzado, who came as a young version of Gloria's character in the movie Moments of Love.
05:54We lost an icon.
05:58She's so beautiful, not only because of her looks,
06:03but also because of her commitment to herself, her friendship with people.
06:08She's really a beautiful human being.
06:13Yesterday, there were also people who came from the showbiz.
06:22Even from politics.
06:26Including Daisy Romualdez, Vilma Santos, Sharon Coneta, and Barbie Forteza,
06:36who worked with Tita Gloria in The Half-Sisters and Meant to Be.
06:43President Bongbong Marcos, who worked with Tita Gloria in the Marcos Sr. biopic,
06:50which was nominated by Tadhana in 1965, also contributed.
06:55For the Film Development Council of the Philippines Chairperson, Jose Javier Reyes,
07:00Tita Glo can be considered the Queen of Philippine Movies.
07:05The way she treats me as a writer and director,
07:08the way she treats the utilities, even down to the smallest person on the set.
07:14So that, for me, is a rare quality.
07:16The fans were eager to watch the actress' public viewing from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
07:25Tonight, there will be necrological services,
07:30where the family and friends of the veteran actress will also receive an eulogy.
07:37Tomorrow, her grave will be cremated.
07:40For GMA Integrated News, Aubrey Carampel, 24 Horas.
07:47The Philippines and the United States will conduct a joint military exercise in February.
07:53The Typhoon Missile Launcher, which was transferred to a secret location in Luzon, will be used there.
08:00Chino Gaston, 24 Horas.
08:06The location is a secret in the Philippines,
08:08but the Philippine Army confirmed that the American Medium-Range Typhoon Missile Launcher
08:14will be used in the joint Philippine-U.S. military exercise in February.
08:18In fact, another Philippine Army platoon will teach how to use the payload delivery system of the missile launcher.
08:26Last time, there was already a platoon of the army that was used to moving and deploying it.
08:33Also in Italy, where the joint military exercise will be conducted,
08:38the American Typhoon Missile Launcher in Luzon was transferred several times by China.
08:44If placed in a good location,
08:47its missile can reach any part of the Philippine Aegean Sea,
08:51as well as parts of southern China and southern Russia near the sea.
08:56Since the second platoon will be trained in the use of the Typhoon,
09:00the AFB was asked if the Philippines plans to buy a weapon that China has been planning for a long time.
09:07It's more of the familiarization of any new advanced weapons system for the armed forces, basically.
09:16And of course, our interoperability with this kind of weapons.
09:20As mentioned previously by the Commander-General of the Philippines,
09:23we are proposing for the same capabilities.
09:26So as long as the MRC is here,
09:29we will maximize their utilization to train our personnel in this kind of new technology.
09:34The AFB previously said that no country has the right to dictate to the Philippines
09:39if it will choose to place missiles in Luzon to defend itself.
09:45For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, 24 Hours.
09:51Komenrec will now monitor the political surveys that may influence the voters.
09:59They will also issue guidelines regarding the use of celebrities or influencers in endorsing candidates.
10:08Sandra Aguinauro has the news.
10:14The campaign period of the running senators and party lists will start on February 11.
10:19That is why the Commission on Elections, or Komelec, is now studying
10:23how to monitor the proper declaration of the candidates that will be spending in the campaign.
10:29One of the things they are looking at is the presence of celebrities or influencers
10:34who will endorse the candidates.
10:37Komelec does not immediately accept their services because they are free.
10:43If they are paid, they also have to pay a tax.
10:48The candidate or party must declare this in their Statement of Contributions and Expenditures, or SOSE,
10:55which is one of the public ones of Komelec.
10:57Under the law, only P3 per registered voter can be spent by a national candidate with a party.
11:05P5 per voter can be separately spent by a political party.
11:11P5 per voter can also be spent by an independent national candidate.
11:17If you can afford influencers, just pay the right amount or report to Komelec
11:21so that we can know how much they have spent.
11:24Are they still compliant with P3 or P5 as the case may be provided by our law.
11:30They will issue guidelines on this in the near future.
11:34Komelec is also looking at how to monitor the political surveys that can influence the voters.
11:41It seems that the Supreme Court's decision is not compliant,
11:45especially when it comes to revealing who commissioned,
11:49where the respondents were collected,
11:52what are the parameters of the questions,
11:55and at the same time, what is the scientific basis or how the data arrived.
12:04Komelec and TikTok are still compliant with the election.
12:06Komelec and TikTok signed a Memorandum of Understanding
12:10to fight misinformation in the social media app.
12:14TikTok also launched an election center that can be found in its app
12:19when the users of the information related to the election search it.
12:23Komelec also signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples
12:30to strengthen the cooperation of indigenous people in the election and to protect their rights.
12:36For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo for Tutok 24 Horas.
12:42Not only on TV, radio, and online is our campaign against fake news.
12:47Because until the elections,
12:49your team will teach the truth about monitoring on social media and being a responsible voter.
12:56The GMA Masterclass Election 2025 Dapat Totoo Siris in Mindanao
13:01was brought to you by Cyril Chavez of GMA Regional TV.
13:08In Mindanao, the GMA Masterclass Election 2025 Dapat Totoo Siris
13:14became the center of discussion at the Liceo de Cagayan University in Cagayan de Oro City.
13:20Being a responsible voter and being a watcher of those who earn money from social media.
13:27If you see content, what do you do?
13:29You have to watch, read, and listen.
13:32Consume the content, but for the purpose of finding out if that content is real.
13:39Especially now.
13:41Especially now that deepfake content has been circulating.
13:45The right candidate was also chosen to be the candidate for the last part of the Mindanao leg
13:51at Central Mindanao University in Maramagbukidnon
13:54which was attended by thousands of students.
13:57This masterclass is not just an event.
14:00It is actually a call of action.
14:04It is a testament to the critical role that informed and responsible citizens
14:11play a vital role in shaping the future of our nation.
14:17The challenge of discerning truth from misinformation becomes even more pressing.
14:24Fake news undermines not just individual understanding
14:29but also the very fabric of democracy and governance.
14:34In his message, Senior Vice President and Head of GMA Integrated News, Regional TV, and Synergy,
14:42Oliver Victor B. Amoroso,
14:44emphasized the importance of being sensitive and fact-checkers
14:48as a defense against spreading misinformation.
14:53We, the people, are the leaders.
14:56We are the deciders.
14:58So make yourselves knowledgeable about these issues.
15:02Watch the news on TV.
15:04Read digital.
15:06And don't fall, rather, for slogans,
15:09one-liners,
15:11screamers,
15:12and hate peddlers.
15:14From GMA Regional TV,
15:16I am Cyril Chavez.
15:19Tune in 24 hours.
