00:39 Ticket prices and the seat planned to Seventeen's follow concert in the Philippines are here.

00:45 And pop star Taylor Swift announces her The Eras Tour concert film is coming to theaters

00:52 The House of Representatives gives in to public clamor and commits to remove the confidential

00:56 funds allotted to Sara Duterte's Office of the Vice President and Department of Education

01:01 in the proposed 2024 budget.

01:03 In a statement, House Appropriations Committee Chairperson Zaldy Coe says the funds will

01:07 be realigned to augment the budgets of government agencies addressing tensions in the West Philippine

01:12 Sea.

01:13 Coe adds the House is still looking at other sources of funding.

01:17 In the proposed 2024 budget, the OVP has allotted 500 million pesos for confidential funds while

01:23 the DepEd asks for 150 million.

01:26 Authority leaders in the House say the beneficiaries of the move would be the following agencies.

01:31 The move was triggered by China's installation of a 300-meter floating barrier in the southeast

01:36 portion of Bajo de Macinlok or Scarborough Shoal, which prohibited Filipino fishermen

01:40 from fishing in the area.

01:42 The Philippine Coast Guard has since conducted a special operation to remove the barrier.

01:48 Senator Amy Marcos, sister of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., joins a protest on Tuesday, September

01:54 26.

01:55 She joins calls for the resignation of her brother's finance chief, Benjamin Jochno,

01:59 over his economic policies.

02:01 Amy joins the ranks of farmer friends who stood in front of the finance building to

02:05 protest the plan of the finance department to reduce the tariff on imported rice.

02:10 The reduction of tariffs was meant to address the surging price of rice in the market.

02:15 Amy says she was in the protest because, quote, "all of my friends are here," referring to

02:19 farmers and fisherfolk from northern, central, and southern Luzon.

02:23 She adds she doesn't support the plan of her brother's economic managers since the harvest

02:27 season already started.

02:29 On Monday, the Agriculture Department said the president doesn't support the DOF's plan

02:33 to reduce tariffs.

02:35 Marcos leads the DA as its secretary in a concurrent capacity.

02:40 A survey by Okta Research says President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte

02:46 continue to enjoy the trust of the majority of adult Filipinos in the second quarter of

02:50 2023.

02:51 This, despite a slight dip in ratings.

02:54 Marcos still maintains a big majority in the trust ratings nationwide at 75%, although

02:59 this was lower than the 83% he had in Okta's March 2023 survey.

03:04 Most respondents are 82% of adult Filipinos trust Duterte, also a slightly lower figure

03:09 from her trust rating of 87% in March 2023.

03:14 Marcos garners the highest trust from adults in the National Capital Region, while Duterte

03:18 gets her highest trust rating in Mindanao.

03:21 Both the president and the vice president also seem to capture the imagination of the

03:25 lower classes.

03:29 Skateboarding star Marjolaine Didal fails to retain her title in the Asian Games in

03:32 Hangzhou, China, and finishes at eighth and last place in the Women's Street Final.

03:37 An ankle injury hampers Didal from landing the tricks she usually makes.

03:41 Didal, who fractured her left ankle a year ago in Brazil, appeared to hurt her right

03:46 arm after an unsuccessful second trick attempt.

03:49 She then fell hard in her third try before deciding to skip the rest of the stage.

03:53 Didal finishes with a best score of 23.39 points in the runs portion.

03:59 China secures the two highest podium spots in the Women's Street Final, while Japan clinches

04:03 third.

04:06 Maggie Wilson calls out, quote, "influencers" allegedly paid to troll her and her company,

04:11 Akasa Manila Online.

04:13 The model shares screenshots of videos attacking her with influencers who Wilson said were

04:17 instructed to create content against her.

04:20 There are also screenshots from a group chat between the paid influencers.

04:24 They were allegedly paid 8,000 pesos for their videos.

04:28 Some of the influencers involved came forward and said their posts against Wilson were scripted.

04:33 The former Binibining Pilipinas World alleges her ex-husband, Victor Consunji's current

04:37 partner, Rachel Carrasco, led the attacks against her.
