00:04The government is doing its best to stop the illegal pogo operations in the country.
00:10According to Bureau of Immigration Spokesperson Donna Sandoval,
00:14most of the pogo operators are currently hiding in their private property
00:20to continue their illegal operations,
00:23including some condos, hotels, and other small places.
00:27Meanwhile, the B.I. is also closely monitoring the recruits
00:32outside the country and working in scam hubs.
00:37This is our priority right now.
00:40Actually, in the announcement of our President,
00:45once he announced that, we immediately conducted operations.
00:51And our target is by at least mid-year,
00:54the majority of these 11,000 will be deported to the Philippines.
01:01President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. approved an executive order
01:05that will remove or cancel the real property tax and fine
01:09in power generation facilities that have contracts
01:12with government-owned and controlled corporations
01:15under the Billed Operate Transfer Contracts.
01:18In addition, the operation of power generation facilities
01:23and the prevention of the closure of plants
01:26that may cause the price of electricity to rise will be limited.
01:30Under the EO83,
01:32more than 80% of some local government units
01:36will be deducted by independent power producers
01:40based on the assessment level of 15% fair market value.
01:45The interest and tax on unpaid real property
01:49will also be canceled so that the IPPs will not be charged.
