00:14The President's broadcast of the latest natural gas reservoir discovery in the Malampaya 4 drilling area has definitely come to the attention of the harassers of the high seas.
00:25And to be sure, there will be great interest on them to see how they can exploit such opportunity.
00:33But as early as now, the Philippine Navy and the nation's armed forces at large have expressed confidence in defending the Malampaya Reserva or Malampaya East One where gaseous gold was struck.
00:46Navy spokesperson for the West Philippine Sea, Rear Admiral Roy Vincent Trinidad, was even more blunt
00:52when a Philippine News Agency reporter asked him point blank on the real chances or status of the nation's patrol units to preserve and protect the Malampaya 4 area.
01:04For her part, Philippine Navy spokesperson Captain Marisa Martinez said,
01:08The Navy has capabilities deployed at the Western Command or Westcom, which can conduct sustained naval patrols in the MAE-1,
01:18where the Philippine Navy has maintained a decade-long presence in the area by way of Joint Task Force Malampaya,

01:51Yesterday, Valentino passed away in his Rome home of unmentioned causes.
01:56According to the foundation, he co-founded.
01:58Valentino Garavani, the jet sail Italian designer, always sporting a tan and whose career in fashion design spanned nearly half a century,
02:08was definitely high class and whose clientele included royalty, first ladies, and alist showbiz celebrities and movie stars.
02:18Born in 1932 to a family of means, Valentino admits,
02:22His fascination for the movies and silver screens set him on the path and career in fashion.

02:33he founded the house of Valentino in Rome in 1959,
02:38together with Giancarlo Giametti, his lifelong business partner.

02:49Drawing clients like Gina Lolo Brigida, Sophia Loren, Deez Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, and Jackie Kennedy Onassis,
02:59who almost exclusively wore his creations after her marriage to Ari Onassis.
03:05In 1998, he and Giametti sold the label for an estimated 300 million US dollars to an Italian holding company
03:13but still retained the company's resident designer until 2008 when he decided to hang it up for good.
