00:00 the drop of the kilo of meat of the Calabasas in Balintawak Market

00:04 was blocked by the National Meat Inspection Service.

00:08 The meat that was considered as "hot meat"

00:11 was not inspected properly.

00:14 Bian Manalo is in the center of the news.

00:17 The National Meat Inspection Service,

00:25 Department of Agriculture,

00:27 and the Philippine Coast Guard,

00:30 were the ones who dropped the kilo of local beef

00:32 or meat of the Calabasas

00:34 in their stores in Balintawak Market.

00:37 It was found that the meat did not come from

00:40 the authorized slaughterhouse of the NMIS

00:43 and the local government.

00:45 That's why these were considered as "hot meat".

00:48 Because of this,

00:50 the authorities conducted a two-week surveillance operation.

00:54 If you look at this, it's already smelly.

00:58 We suspect that when this was slaughtered,

01:01 it underwent flooding.

01:03 It means that they were drinking water.

01:05 They were drinking water to gain weight

01:08 and to increase their income.

01:10 Which is what is put in danger,

01:14 the meat safety.

01:17 The meat weighed 4,538 kilos or 12 kilograms of Calabasas

01:24 which is worth more than 1.4 million pesos.

01:29 According to the authorities,

01:31 this could be harmful to the health of the buyers

01:35 because it did not undergo proper inspection.

01:38 It's possible that it could be food poisoning.

01:42 Food poisoning means that it could eat and vomit.

01:46 It could cause death due to dehydration.

01:49 It's very complicated.

01:51 Particularly, people who are immunocompromised

01:53 will eat this.

01:55 This is a sign that Filipinos will eat this.

01:59 It's not safe to eat this.

02:01 According to the NMIS,

02:03 the sale of local caribou meat to the markets

02:06 is not prohibited if it comes from authorized slaughterhouses.

02:10 That's why they advise the buyers

02:12 to bring their own documents from NMIS or local

02:17 that says the meat is from an authorized slaughterhouse

02:20 that is owned by an authorized vehicle of NMIS or LGU.

02:24 It should be clean and it should be properly inspected.

02:30 The two stores were issued a notice of violation

02:34 because of violating the Meat Inspection Code of the Philippines.

02:38 While bringing the meat from authorized slaughterhouses

02:42 to the proper disposal.

02:44 BN Manalo, for the people.
