A pleasant Thursday evening to you all. Yours truly, Sharm Zespina here for PTV News Now.
00:09
Now kicking off our breaking stories tonight.
00:13
Calls from major victims of major fender benders and fatal road mishaps for increased premium insurance coverage
00:19
for privately owned vehicles have been mounting and growing louder.
00:23
To the extent it has reached or caught the attention of the president, who wasted no time to intervene and act.
00:30
In a face-off of media earlier today, Department of Transportation Chief Vince Dizon said
00:34
the president expressed his take on the matter and directed him to raise insurance policy coverage
00:40
for owners or drivers of privately owned cars to the same level of public utility vehicles.
00:46
Public utility vehicle owners or operators are mandated to insure themselves
00:50
under the Passenger Protection Accident Insurance, which affords them coverage of up to 100,000 pesos for injuries
00:57
and a maximum of 400,000 pesos in death benefits.
01:01
Meanwhile, under the status quo or current regulations, passengers or drivers of private cars involved
01:07
in serious road collisions or fatal crashes can only claim half the amount
01:12
under the typical TPL or third-party liability insurance private car owners.
01:17
They are mandated to have, which is a maximum of 200,000 pesos for death benefits,
01:23
regardless of the number of passenger fatalities and no benefits at all for injuries.
01:31
And in other news, disgraced former presidential spokesperson and known chatterbox Harry Roque Jr.
01:37
is finally held into account.
01:39
Earlier today, the Justice Department confirmed that media inquiries on an arrest warrant issued by a Pampanga court
01:46
for his arrest, which was signed and took effect last Thursday, May 8.
01:50
Also ordered arrested in the warrant, Filipina-Chinese businesswoman Cassandra Ong,
01:55
whose links to POGOs are widely known, and one Duanan Wu, dubbed the Big Boss and Godfather.
02:02
All three have been charged with alleged human trafficking on the reported links
02:06
and activities in the Porak Pampanga Pogo Hub.
02:08
The human trafficking charges leveled against them is non-bailable.
02:13
Roque is a fugitive on the run, living in the Netherlands, while Wu and Ong are still at large.
02:22
At this moment, let's lend our eyes and ears to my colleague in the TV studios of Baguio City
02:27
for what's hot and brewing in the Cordilleras.
