00:00Instead of pouring cement on the construction site, the cement truck in Mandawi City, Cebu was carrying it.

00:13The driver did not notice it.

00:15The truck driver also had a problem.

00:18The traffic became heavy due to the incident.

00:21The dispenser asked for the driver who was tied up for various traffic violations.

00:28A huge amount of money was transferred to the vaults in Bagac, Bataan, by the raided BPO.

00:3912 Money Vaults in Central 1, Bataan were opened in accordance with the court's order.

00:45It was witnessed by the Central 1.

00:48According to the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission or PAOC, more than 51 million pesos were transferred to 5 vaults.

00:56There were also 167,000 US Dollars or almost 10 million pesos, as well as some documents.

01:03The money is not included in other currencies such as Malaysian Ringgit and Singapore Dollar.

01:10According to the Central 1's lawyer, the money in the vaults was for the operation of the company.

01:16On the same day of the raid, more than 30 million pesos were also earned from the 2 vaults that were opened.

01:24Mary Jane Veloso is still in jail after 14 years in the death row in Indonesia.

01:32Because there is no death penalty in the Philippines against Veloso for life imprisonment.

01:38This is what her lawyers are appealing.

01:41By Reports' Ivan Maynina.

01:46Mary Jane Veloso will go home to the Philippines.

01:49The OFW who was in the death row in Indonesia for more than a decade.

01:52President Marcos announced this while thanking the new President of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto.

01:58If you mean my written agreement, there is still no answer.

02:02But they are the first to come to us to talk about this.

02:06So we're extremely confident it will happen.

02:10And certainly our President must be privy of information which will explain his confidence.

02:18Three administrations reached out to bring Veloso home, who was found guilty in the drug trafficking case in 2010.

02:25In April 2015, Veloso was counted as one of the 10 convicts who were kidnapped by the Indonesian authorities.

02:30But this did not continue.

02:31After being called by President Noy Noy Aquino of the Indonesian Foreign Ministry.

02:35Following the surrender of Veloso's recruiter, Christina Serio,

02:39the Philippines entered the Duterte administration.

02:43He said, follow your own laws. I will not interfere.

02:47Indonesia allowed Veloso to testify against Serio and his other recruiter, Julius Lacanilau.

02:54In the presence of President Bongbong Marcos, Veloso's family filed a petition to the Philippines

02:59for the executive clemency and the entrance of the new Indonesian President.

03:03Indonesia is formulating a policy of transfer of foreign persons to their host countries.

03:15Indonesia itself has a law which will take effect in 2026 about what in effect would be,

03:27if not necessarily the abolition of the death penalty, but some sort of informal non-implementation of the death penalty.

03:40According to the DFA, Indonesia has no alternative in the Philippines.

03:43In his return to the country, in the prison where Veloso is being sentenced.

03:46He will just continue his sentence.

03:49The most important aspect of this all is the difference in our laws.

03:54There, they allowed the death penalty. Here, we don't have a death sentence.

03:57He is a brother of Indonesia.

03:59Therefore, according to the Law and Human Rights Ministry of Indonesia,

04:02life imprisonment will be the sentence of Veloso.

04:05The government of the Philippines will decide where to bring Veloso.

04:08But what the lawyers of Mary Jane want,

04:14Indonesia said that it is in the power of President Marcos to forgive Veloso.

04:18Veloso's family is very thankful that he can go home.

04:21For a long time, God has listened to our prayers.

04:26I hope that Mary Jane can go home.

04:30Ivan Mayrena reporting for GMA Integrated News.

04:36U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin III said that there are American soldiers deployed in the U.S. Task Force Ayungin.

04:43In his post in X, he said that he visited the Command and Control Fusion Center in Palawan yesterday.

04:50He talked and thanked the American soldiers deployed in the U.S. Task Force Ayungin.

04:58According to the AFP Public Affairs Office, the U.S. Troops in Palawan are providing technical assistance.

05:04This might help in the maritime domain awareness,

05:07which is important in programs to protect the interests of the Philippines in the West Philippine Sea.

05:15The Chief of Staff, Vice President Sara Duterte, Undersecretary Zulaika Lopez,

05:22will remain in the detention facility of the Camera until Monday.

05:27He was tempted by the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability because of his lack of knowledge in listening.

05:34It came out in the hearing that Lopez wrote to the Commission on Audit

05:39that the Commission on Audit should not follow the orders of the Camera to submit audit reports on the confidential funds of the OVP.

05:45Lopez confirmed the letters and Duterte said he knows about it.

05:50They requested it because the investigation is still ongoing.

05:53He also said he does not know about the disbursement and use of the confidential funds.

05:58The two so-called Acknowledgement Receipts submitted by the OVP and the DepEd were also included in the hearing.

06:06Both were signed by a Kokoy Villamil in the receipts, but they are different.

06:11VP Sara said that she is not sure about the hearing.

06:15She has not seen the receipts requested.

06:18It depends on the outcome of the situation if she will attend the next hearing.

06:25It's sufficient though that they did not accept it.

06:27I did not say anything. I did not even try to make an opinion.

06:32They are just far from being handicapped.

06:34They are just far from being handicapped.

06:37They are just far from being handicapped.

06:42Some places in the north are still flooded because of the rising cases of dengue and leptospirosis.

06:48In Catanduanes, some people were able to survive thanks to the materials collected from those who donated houses to rebuild Masisilungan.

06:58Joseph Moro has a report.

07:03Residents are waiting for help to join our team in Barangay Baybay, Caramoran, Catanduanes.

07:09In the town of Pandan, materials were collected from those who donated houses for repairs.

07:15There is still no electricity.

07:17The town of San Andres is also flooded.

07:20Landslides are everywhere.

07:24Residential areas and houses in Dipakulaw, Aurora were also not saved.

07:28Iron was scattered, poles fell, and trees fell.

07:32Motorists were stranded for almost three days.

07:39Aurora was submerged in the State of Calamity.

07:44The town of Tumawini in Isabela is also in the State of Calamity.

07:50In Cagayan, wooden houses were destroyed, and the steel bridge built by the Cagayan River was washed away

07:55while the Kamalanyugan-Apari Bridge was being built.

08:06The flood is still not reaching the town of Lalo.

08:10Also in Togegarao City.

08:15According to the NDRMC, more than P1.5 billion pesos were lost.

08:21According to the NDRMC, more than P1.5 billion pesos were lost

08:25in the infrastructure caused by the effects of the Nica, Ophel, and Pepito floods.

08:31More than P8 million pesos were lost in agriculture.

08:36Joseph Morong is reporting for GMA Integrated News.

08:41The presence of dams or molds should not be neglected in the parts and materials in houses.

08:48It can lead to difficulty in breathing and other health problems.

08:53This is the FITRAC report from Katrina Son.

09:04And sometimes, it's hard to breathe.

09:06Mei Takida and her children experienced this in Japan

09:11when she told her brother and sister-in-law why she got sick.

09:16She said, check if there are molds in your house.

09:20Lian Yumilaunyo's son,

09:23while at the study table, he said it was because of the flood.

09:28It's just a simple cleaning.

09:31All of the molds, I cleaned the vinegar.

09:35I just put it in a spray bottle.

09:38According to a doctor, the flood in the house should not be neglected.

09:42Allergic rhinitis can be triggered by molds.

09:45You can also have coughing or wheezing and sore throat.

09:49Flood can also cause nausea,

09:53nausea, and be prone to immunocompromised conditions.

09:59You can also have chronic pulmonary aspergillosis.

10:03This can cause breathing problems, weakening of the body, and unexplained weight loss.

10:08Floods increase when it's cold, rainy, and when the house is flooded.

10:13If the house is not properly ventilated, that's when the molds attack.

10:17Aside from places that get wet, like the kitchen,

10:21there can also be floods in the bed and blanket.

10:24Any part of our house can have molds or the so-called flood.

10:31Just like this blanket that was not checked,

10:33that's why there was a flood.

10:36That's why it's better to check these so that the mold or flood can be avoided.

10:42It can be prevented from floods if the cleaning is regular.

10:46We need to open all the windows and windows

10:49so that the fresh air can enter.

10:53We will vacuum it so that the small particles can seep in.

11:00Then we will scrub it with a sponge or a scrubbing pad with non-necessary chemicals.

11:09We will do it in a circular motion and when it's okay,

11:14we will rinse it with water and dry wet.
