00:2059% of Filipinos approved or agreed with the administration.
00:2717% disagreed while 23% said they are not happy.
00:34Among the programs of the government that the Filipinos are happy with

00:40improving education,
00:42priority for the poor,
00:44increased work,

00:50The Senate approved the proposal to form a professional regulatory board for agriculturalists
00:56In Senate Bill 2906, Senator Ramon Bong-Revilla Jr. approved
01:03the importance of having a regulatory board
01:06to protect the interests of agriculturalists who help farmers.
01:12This includes increasing the minimum salary grade 13 for registered agriculturists
01:17and requiring agri-corporations to open opportunities for them.
01:22This is a big help to strengthen the agricultural profession
01:27and to have a clear regulation for agriculturalists.
01:33Arrested in Bulacan is a senior official of the Communist Terrorist Group
01:38under the guise of arrest warrant,
01:40and under the cover of CTG leader Mirna Cruz Abraham.
01:43He is the suspect of murder and frustrated murders in several encounters in Northern Luzon.
01:50In the report of the QCPD,
01:51the Secretary of the Metro Manila Regional Party Committee
01:54and the Head of the Regional Organizational Department
01:57is the suspect where he was involved in recruitment,
02:00organization, and mobilization activities in Metro Manila.
02:05We believe that his arrest is a big loss for them
02:11because of his great position and role.
02:16When it comes to the operation of the Communist Terrorist Group,
02:20he is not in a position to recruit.
