00:00
A large Christmas decor was suddenly burned before the lights of the decorations in Dumanjog, Cebu Plaza.
00:13
In the investigation of the fire department, it is possible that the fire started from the sparks in the welding of the decoration
00:19
that fell on the other pieces of styrofoam and curtains.
00:23
No one was injured or injured.
00:25
The lightning ceremony also continued.
00:27
Before tonight, the customs of the Shyamna Warehouse in Bulacan closed
00:34
with bags of imported rice but smuggled.
00:38
Katrina Son has a report.
00:44
More than half a billion pesos.
00:47
That is the value of thousands of bags of imported rice that were received by the Bureau of Customs
00:53
in the Shyamna Inspection Warehouse tonight in Bukawai, Bulacan.
00:57
Most of the rice came from Thailand, Myanmar, Pakistan, and Vietnam.
01:04
Customs suspected that they were selling smuggled rice.
01:08
They are investigating if they are mixing imported and local rice and selling it expensively.
01:15
This is why our farmers are here.
01:18
We conducted a surveillance on the directive of our President to stop anti-smuggling operations against agricultural smuggling
01:26
because of the new economic sabotage law.
01:30
No one faced the owners of the warehouses.
01:33
What was found were only stalls or shelves.
01:37
Customs asked them for a permit with a proof of payment of duties and taxes from the Department of Agriculture.
01:45
But they were not shown anything.
01:47
That is why the warehouses were closed.
01:49
It should be on hand.
01:51
It should be shown right away.
01:53
Our visitors are just reasoning.
01:56
They said that the offices are empty.
01:59
They will not show anything.
02:01
That is why they are in a cell right now.
02:03
The owners of the rice warehouses here in Bukawai, Bulacan are given 15 days for inspection
02:10
to submit the necessary documents to prove that their rice was not smuggled.
02:17
If they do not submit it, their rice warehouses will be completely closed.
02:24
Katrina Son reporting for JIMEI Integrated News.
02:30
A bar in Alaminos, Pangasinan was visited by a sexual exploitation victim.
02:36
Ten women were raped, seven were minors.
02:40
One was raped by a young girl.
02:43
CJ Torrida of JIMEI Regional TV reports.
02:49
We are from the NBI and DFWD, okay?
02:52
When the NBI, City Social Welfare and Development and other authorities visited this bar in Alaminos, Pangasinan,
03:02
they saw a few women and a customer with a child.
03:07
Why is there a child here? Whose child is that?
03:11
The bar is involved in human trafficking of women who work as guest relations officers or GROs.
03:19
They provide sex service to customers for P1,500 to P1,700.
03:27
Ten women were raped, seven were minors based on their dental aging examination.
03:36
There are women from Bulacan, Cavite, Manila.
03:40
There are also women from Linggayen, Pangasinan.
03:43
Usually, they have financial needs.
03:47
They were brought to the Provincial Social Welfare and Development in Linggayen for counseling and social protection.
03:53
Five people were arrested on the subject of the operation.
03:56
The owner of the bar, three cashiers, and one waiter.
04:00
Their defense is that they do not know that these are minors because they presented documents that they are of age.
04:08
They were detained by the NBI while the court is waiting for their case.
04:14
CJ Torrida of JIMEI Regional TV reports for JIMEI Integrated News.
04:21
The DFA itself has confirmed that Mary Jane Veloso, our countrywoman who has been imprisoned for almost 15 years,
04:27
will be returning home to the Philippines on Wednesday.
04:30
She will be staying in Indonesia for a short while.
04:32
Reporting by Joseph Moro.
04:40
Mary Jane Veloso is happy and having fun in the vast world in her Yogyakarta.
04:44
She will go to the detention facility in Jakarta, Indonesia where she is now.
04:48
DFA Undersecretary Ed de Vega confirmed the statement of the Acting Deputy for Immigration and Corrections Coordination of Indonesia
04:56
that she will be returning home to the Philippines on Wednesday, December 18.
05:01
It can be concluded that she has been in prison and death row in Indonesia for almost 15 years
05:07
after she was found in a bag in April 2010 with more than two kilos of heroin.
05:12
The Administration of Aquino and Marcos identified Mary Jane's case.
05:16
Until the new President of Indonesia passed away, their prisoners left the country.
05:21
This is where President Marcos requested that Mary Jane's case be included in the review.
05:25
Last month, the President said that Mary Jane will be returning home.
05:29
She left the agreement signed by Indonesia and the Philippines on December 6.
05:34
Now, the National Union of People's Lawyers said that Mary Jane's fate is in the Philippines.
05:39
Even if the case in Indonesia is legal, because the cost of the physical here has been transferred,
05:44
the political option is in the Philippines.
05:48
According to the Justice Department, she went straight to the Correctional Institute for Women to be imprisoned.
05:53
That's why the Veloso family requested an executive clemency.
05:56
The Veloso family hopes that at the end of their 15-year struggle,
06:01
Mary Jane will be reunited with her family.
06:07
We prepared her favorite food, adobong baboy.
06:14
I don't know how to speak Tagalog.
06:16
That's why when we talked, she started speaking in Tagalog, but later she started speaking in other languages.
06:22
She will remember that. She will change her language.
06:28
If there's anyone who wants to reunite with Mary Jane,
06:31
this is her children who have been separated from their mother for one year and six years.
06:36
I will hug her tight. I hope that before Christmas, my mother will be separated from me.
06:42
I'm happy during Christmas, but I'm not happy when I'm pregnant.
06:46
Joseph Morong reporting for GMA Integrated News.
06:53
A tricycle driver from Zaraga, Iloilo did not return home from the Christmas party
07:00
after a gunman shot him.
07:02
According to the police, the victim used insulting words against the gunman in the middle of the party.
07:09
The gunman went home and took his gun and shot the tricycle driver.
07:14
The victim died in the hospital.
07:16
The suspect was caught and a homemade shotgun was recovered, but he refused to use the gun.
07:22
He was jailed and was charged with murder.
07:30
It's still mid-December, but almost 500 houses were burned in the country.
07:35
The number of fires in Metro Manila is increasing these days,
07:39
just like in a house with fireworks.
07:41
Oscar Oida has a report.
07:45
Guys, there's a fire. Guys, there's a fire.
07:48
There's a fire in that mountain.
07:50
More than 10 houses were burned in Tuktuk Tongborol in Barangay 128, Balut, Tondo, Manila, this morning.
07:57
There's no fire.
07:59
It's hard for the firefighters to go up here.
08:01
When we entered, as you can see, our houses were covered.
08:05
When we arrived here, we were told to go back to the mountain.
08:08
The wind was strong. We were close to the sea.
08:12
No one was hurt, but almost no one was saved.
08:15
Many people lost their homes in the fire that broke out at 11 a.m.
08:21
It's Christmas and there's no house and no money.
08:26
It's a pity. Where can we go?
08:29
When this house was hit by fire in Barangay Paltok, Quezon City,
08:36
there were also gunshots heard.
08:38
According to the barangay's correspondents,
08:40
they saw different kinds of gunshots inside the house.
08:45
The investigation of the fire continued,
08:47
which according to the BFP, started at the first floor of the house.
08:52
In Makati City, two houses were hit.
08:56
The residents were saved, but they didn't have any savings.

09:05
immediately caught fire.
09:07
But in Pasig, a firefighter was injured while a unit in the fifth floor of a condominium caught fire.
09:17
In another condo in Ortigas, units in the twenty-second floor were burned.
09:23

10:07
On the first day of Misa De Gallio,
10:09
the pilgrim center of Basilica Minor del Santo Niño de Cebu in Cebu City was filled with devotees.
10:17
The Catholics did not fall asleep.
10:19
They wanted to be able to complete the Misa De Gallio every morning.
10:25
But there were some who were not able to sleep or did not have a chance.
10:30
Six of them fainted.
10:34
The worship service was held at night in Iloilo City.
10:40
San Pedro Cathedral in Davao City was also full,
10:44
so the devotees were forced to stand outside the church.

It is the day before Christmas, which is a time for children.
11:55
What are the ideal gifts besides toys?
11:58
Find out in the report of Katrina Son.
12:03
This Christmas, what are the gifts that children want to receive?
12:09
Toys. Just a racket.
12:11
Mommy Maricar is planning to give toys to her child.
12:15
She is happy, that's how she is.
12:18
If she is given toys, she will really thank you.
12:22
But for other children, toys are not what they want to receive.
12:26
A book to read.
12:27
Shoes.
12:29
Clothes are also a typical gift.
12:34
Books, art materials, or musical instruments can also be used to enhance the creativity of the children.
12:40
If it is not a material thing, why not a ticket to a museum, aquarium, or zoo?
12:46
Or enroll them in sports, dance, or music class.
12:51
Mommy Mary Joy Sarmiento, instead of toys,
12:54
she will give a headband that she made for her children.
12:58
They are still in mother and kids bonding with handicrafts.
13:01
They are not yet damaged and used up.
13:10
According to an expert, non-toy gifts have a lot of benefits.
13:21
Values and character formation, which are very important if they want to develop themselves.
13:28
The value of sharing is also developed in the children.
13:31
Being grateful or being thankful.
13:34
And service or being ready to serve.
13:37
It is still balanced.
13:38
It is not just toys, but at the same time,
13:41
it can be an action that still creates memories and moments that they treasure.
13:50
We thank you very much.
