Because of limited mobility, people are also not being able to go to physical branches, etc.
03:06.7
It further accelerated the adoption of consumers of digital channels.
03:13.5
We are now being able to provide the services needed by our citizens, by our consumers.

04:41.3
and we have allowed more transportation to come out.
04:45.6
That's going to prove to be better for demand.
04:48.6
If we do follow the health protocols, the ability of people to move around will likely contribute better to growth.

And ABS-CBN bringing back TV Patrol and other iconic shows to all TVs Channel 2
07:38.0
with the signing of a content agreement deal with Advanced Media Broadcasting System.
07:45.3
I'm Stanley Palizada, Dateline Philippines begins right now.
07:48.9
For those of you watching us on YouTube and Facebook, nice to have you with us.
07:52.5
Topping the midday news, a dozen members of the Bangsamora Islamic Freedom Fighters
07:56.7
including one of its leaders killed in a military operation in Maguindanao del Sur.
08:02.4
The clash in Barangay Kitango, Datu, Saudi Ampatuan claimed the life of BFF leader Mohiden Animbang
08:09.9
and his brother Saga Animbang.
08:12.6
The firefight injured seven soldiers.
08:15.8
Several high-powered firearms were recovered from the scene.
08:19.3
The BFF is a splinter group of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front.
08:23.9
Just last month, it claimed responsibility for...
08:26.7
the death of four soldiers in Cotabato.
08:31.4
In other news, China calling out the Group of Seven Major Powers or G7.
08:36.9
This after the group released a statement expressing concerns about Beijing's actions in the South China Sea.
08:43.6
The G7 ministers opposed what it called China's dangerous use of Coast Guard and Maritime Militia Vessels,
08:51.3
specifically mentioning its use of water cannons against Philippine vessels.
08:55.2
China firing back.
08:56.7
Saying the group is manipulating the issue.
09:01.8
Our advice to the G7 is to change the old habit of blaming others,
09:06.1
immediately stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs,
09:09.9
and undermining other countries' development,
09:12.1
and work with the international community to uphold peace, promote cooperation, and promote development.
09:19.9
The Philippines earlier welcomed the backing of the G7 ministers in its maritime row with China.
09:26.6
The Foreign Affairs Department said it appreciates the group's support in rejecting China's baseless claims in the West Philippine Sea,
09:33.8
and their call for Beijing to stop its illegal activities.
09:40.1
The annual Philippine-US joint military drills opened Monday,
09:44.4
with China denouncing it as a maritime show of force.
09:47.8
Raya Kapulong reports.
09:50.7
China remains committed to resolving maritime disputes with other countries
09:55.9
through dialogue but will not allow itself to be abused.
10:00.2
That's according to a top Chinese military official
10:02.8
at a meeting of senior foreign naval officials in the port city of Qingdao on Monday.
10:09.3
Zhang Yuxia, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission
10:13.1
and China's second highest ranking military official says,
10:17.0
the sea should not be an arena where countries can flex their military force.
10:21.9
As President Xi Jinping has pointed out,
10:26.5
the Pacific Ocean is large enough to accommodate all countries of the Pacific.
10:31.0
The ocean should not be an arena for countries to show off their force
10:34.7
and engage in gunboat diplomacy,
10:37.6
but rather a big stage for peaceful coexistence and the promotion of common interests.
10:44.4
Zhang's comments were spoken during the opening ceremony of the Western Pacific Naval Symposium
10:50.3
with an apparent reaction from the Chinese.
10:51.9
reference to growing tensions in the South China Sea.
10:55.6
The event overlaps with the annual U.S.-Philippines Large-Scale Joint Military Drills,
11:01.6
also known as Balikatan, which begin on Monday and will be held outside Philippine territorial waters for the first time.
11:10.3
AFP Chief of Staff Gen. Romeo Browner Jr. and U.S. Marine Corps Pacific Commander Lt. Gen. William Cherney
11:18.3
led the opening ceremony at Camp Aguinaldo.
11:21.9
Since 1991, this is the second largest Balikatan in terms of participants.
11:27.8
11,000 American soldiers and 5,000 from the Armed Forces of the Philippines
11:32.6
are set to engage in military exercises and drills.
11:36.9
250 troops from Australia and France will also participate in command and control and field training exercises,
11:44.4
as well as humanitarian civic assistance.
11:47.0
There will also be observers from 14 countries in South, East,
11:51.9
and Southeast Asia, Europe, Oceania, or the South Pacific.
11:57.6
Some of these members of the Group 7, or G7.
12:02.1
This exercise represents the essence of unity, collective responsibility,
12:10.1
and enduring partnership between the Republic of the Philippines and the United States of America and our partners.
12:21.9
a partnership of convenience,
12:24.1
but rather a clear reflection of our shared history,
12:31.7
unwavering commitment to democracy,
12:34.1
and respect for international law in our pursuit of peace and security in the Indo-Pacific region.
12:43.2
We're building military readiness throughout the full range,
12:47.5
the full range of combined and joint operations here.
12:51.9
gives us the opportunity to demonstrate advanced multi-domain, cross-functional, combined operations.
12:58.9
The training this year is focused on defending the territory of the Philippines against external threats.
13:05.9
For the first time, the combat drills will extend beyond the 12-nautical-mile territorial sea of the Philippines.
13:13.5
This includes the multilateral maritime exercise.
13:17.0
In addition to the warships of the Philippines and America,
13:20.7
the French Navy will also sail to the extent of 200-nautical miles into the exclusive economic zone of the country.
13:28.9
And for the first time as well,
13:31.2
the Philippine Coast Guard will participate sending six of its ships to Palawan and Northern Luzon.
13:37.7
We will ensure that there will be no disturbance or disturbances in the said exercises.
13:45.9
There will be many firsts in the history of Balikatan this year.
13:49.5
For the first time,
13:50.5
combat drills will be conducted in Batanes,
13:52.5
as well as the integrated air defense missile training using the Spider Missile System from Israel
13:59.5
to defend the country against missile and drone attacks.
14:03.5
Also for the first time,
14:05.5
actual missiles will be fired from the BRP Antonio Luna to sink an old Philippine Navy ship,
14:11.5
and there will be a simulation exercise involving reclaiming an island that is supposedly occupied by the enemy.
14:19.5
The AFP sees no problem with the upcoming combat exercises should Chinese ships make their presence felt in the West Philippine Sea.
14:28.6
Just last week, there were reports of two Chinese ships being spotted within close proximity of 30-nautical miles from the Palawan mainland a day before the start of Balikatan.
14:40.3
I cannot confirm or deny it, but surely I would say that we would expect something.
14:49.5
There is some presence of the Chinese side also because they have built their structures in these areas.
14:55.5
The Balikatan exercises will last until May 10.
14:59.5
Raya Kapulong, ABS-CBN News.
15:04.5
The mayor of Tuguegarao in Cagayan insists the presence of Chinese students in her city is not a national security concern.
15:11.5
Several lawmakers have raised concerns on the reported influx of Chinese students in the province.

We would know if there were any illegal things being done or if these really were students.
15:53.4
The West Philippine Sea problem arose just this year.
15:57.8
Ang inyong incident na nagsabog ng tubig, this year na naman po yan.
16:02.9
So this is an entirely new problem that we're going to have to deal with.
16:07.3
The EDCA, the foreigners were already here even before the EDCA site, Cagayan, was identified as an EDCA site.
16:15.2
We have a lot of Filipino-Chinese communities all over the country that are now experiencing the same.
16:24.7
We want to, instead of de-escalating the problem, we're now worsening it by the pronouncements that are being made by the government officials, by the netizens.
16:39.7
A former commissioner of the Immigration Bureau also not seeing the influx of Chinese students.
16:48.3
Reasonable naman yan kasi depende naman talaga yan doon sa programa na isang eskwelahan.
16:52.6
It's part of their economic boost na mag-invite ng mga ganitong klaseng turista dahil magkakaroon ng magandang development within the area ng eskwelahan kapag maraming foreign students.
17:05.5
From the point of view of the regulator, para bang hindi naman kailanang some kind of high-level investigation,
17:12.3
siguro parang inquiry lang within the department.
17:15.2
The Department of Justice and the Bureau of Immigration, bakit nagkaroon ng ganitong spike?
17:21.7
In other news, the lawyer of expelled lawmaker Arnulfo Tevez Jr. disputes a bribery claim from the Justice Department.
17:29.2
The DOJ earlier appealed to Timorese authorities for the immediate deportation of Tevez,
17:35.3
saying his son bribed a police officer in exchange for his father's security.
17:40.3
But attorney Ferdinand Topacio now says it was the officer who demanded,
17:45.2
and his client declined.
17:48.2
Topacio adds they are optimistic Tevez would be granted political asylum or refugee status by the Timor-Leste government.
17:56.9
The translation is here with me, and the headline reads,
18:00.8
it's very clear that Ramos Horta condems PCIC member who asked for money from fugitive Tevez.
18:09.5
He reported the matter, that is why.
18:12.3
There is an official statement from a no-listening,
18:15.2
than the head of state, President Ramos Horta,
18:18.9
which says that this is under investigation.
18:21.8
We are following the process there.
18:23.8
The problem is, our government keeps making interruptions or interventions to the government of East Timor,
18:31.4
and which I think is not being very well taken there.
18:38.9
Tevez was arrested in Dili last month for the murders of Negros Oriental Governor Raul de Gamo,
18:44.3
and he was arrested in Dili last month for the murders of Negros Oriental Governor Raul de Gamo,

Moving on, the Philippine Agriculture Department eyeing a 10-day buffer stock on key agricultural products
18:54.8
in a bid to stabilize commodity prices.
18:57.7
Lady Vicencio reports.
19:00.8
The National Price Coordinating Council convened Monday for its regular meeting
19:05.6
to address concerns on price stabilization and food supply.
19:11.2
Among the policies proposed to be implemented is having a 10-day buffer stock,
19:15.2
for agricultural products.
19:17.6
The Trade Department said,
19:19.2
commodities eyed for procurement by the Agriculture Department
19:22.1
are products identified to be drivers of inflation,
19:25.9
namely rice, corn, sugar, onion, pork, and fertilizers.
19:31.0
Ang goal po sana nito, in addition to creating a market-based mechanism
19:35.9
to decrease the price by increasing the supply,
19:39.7
magiging deterrent din po siya sa mga hoarders,
19:42.5
at saka those who are engaged in illegal,
19:45.2
price manipulation.
19:47.3
Nograles noted that if implemented,
19:49.5
this will be the first time that buffer stocking for agricultural products
19:53.3
will be invoked under the Price Act.
19:56.0
Section 9 of the Price Act gives power to the implementing agency
19:59.7
to procure, purchase, import, or stockpile basic commodities
20:04.4
and to distribute this for sale to address supply shortage
20:08.3
or if there is a need to effect changes in its prevailing price.
20:12.2
While the National Food Authority is mandated
20:14.6
to manage the country's rice buffer stocks,
20:17.4
its main purpose is to stockpile for calamities.
20:21.1
If the Price Act is invoked,
20:23.5
government-procured rice may be sold in identified areas
20:27.0
for purposes mentioned in the law.
20:29.7
Ang lumalabas, pag merong stock tayo, may buffer stock tayo,
20:33.9
syempre parang isipin nila na parang the government can intervene anytime
20:38.4
and it will be a deterrent for illegal price manipulation.
20:42.9
Nograles added that the Banco Central,
20:44.6
na Pilipinas, projected during the meeting
20:47.1
that inflation may shift towards the upper end of the government target
20:51.0
of 2-4%, driven by the increase in prices of rice, vegetables, and meat.
20:57.5
Thus, the need to procure buffer stocks for certain commodities
21:00.6
that may have an inflationary effect.
21:03.5
For DTI, partnerships with the private sector
21:06.3
are needed for storing agricultural products
21:08.7
should the 10-day buffer stocking be implemented.
21:11.4
Napag-usapan na so far sapat ito,
21:14.6
ganoon nga yung posibleng mga problema
21:17.4
when it comes to stabilizing our prices.
21:20.3
So 10 days stock.
21:22.2
At nakipagtulungan yan sa private sector
21:24.2
para ma-ensure na yung 10 days worth of inventory
21:27.7
ay may paglalagyan,
21:29.4
whether that's warehousing or cold chain storages.
21:33.2
While the DA is looking to craft the implementing rules and regulations
21:36.9
for the 10-day buffer stocking of agricultural products,
21:40.4
DTI said an IRR is not required under the Price Act.
21:44.3
for the implementing agency to implement it.

21:52.1
The Philippine Science and Technology Department's Nuclear Research Institute
21:56.8
again pushing for the country's use of nuclear energy
22:00.1
as a solution to the recent power woes.
22:03.8
Luzon and Visayas were repeatedly placed under red and yellow alerts last week
22:08.3
due to the forced outages and weak capacity of power plants.
22:14.3
says these incidents could be avoided
22:16.6
if nuclear energy is added to the country's power mix.
22:22.1
If the electricity mix contains substantial nuclear,
22:26.3
that won't happen.
22:27.7
Because capacity factor of nuclear is 90%.
22:30.5
The more you increase the percent of nuclear in the mix,
22:34.6
the more reliable the electricity will be.
22:37.7
Less dependent on weather.
22:39.3
The plant maintenance is scheduled.
22:41.3
One month every 18 months.
22:44.3
There's no sudden break-in.
22:46.8
The Research Institute also aligning concerns
22:49.9
about the safety of operating nuclear power plants in the country.
22:54.9
There have been only two accidents of note.
22:59.4
The Chernobyl, which was done because it was an experiment,
23:03.1
illegal experiment, and then Fukushima.
23:05.7
In Fukushima, the plant was not destroyed by the earthquake.
23:08.5
It was destroyed because the cooling system
23:14.3
All the 450 nuclear plants in the world after Fukushima did a stress test.
23:19.6
How will you prevent Fukushima?
23:21.2
You put your cooling systems at a higher elevation.
23:25.2
So that means it makes the possibility of a nuclear accident
23:29.9
even much, much, much lower.
23:34.4
Now speaking of nuclear energy,
23:36.3
a lawmaker claims the Energy Department is to blame
23:39.2
for delays in passing key bills advocating for the use of nuclear power.
23:44.3
Congressman Mark Kohanko claims
23:46.7
the agency has been complicating the process
23:49.1
of passing two crucial nuclear bills in Congress.
23:54.6
The most important two bills,
23:57.2
the bills creating the regulatory authority,
24:02.9
was already passed on third reading last November.
24:08.1
It is in the Senate.
24:09.5
And there's a second bill regarding nuclear liability.
24:14.3
Which already passed in February.
24:16.7
It's also in the Senate.
24:18.7
What is very concerning is that the DOE itself
24:24.2
is trying to complicate the bill in the Senate.
24:28.0
So it will be delayed.
24:30.8
They're also trying to consolidate the bill.
24:33.3
So I don't know what their game is.
24:35.4
My sense is that there are interests in the DOE
24:40.0
who seek to delay nuclear power.
24:43.8
the Senate is trying to consolidate the bill.
24:44.2
This is being manifest now.
24:47.3
The Marcos administration has been seeking to include nuclear energy into the Philippine energy mix by 2032.
24:55.1
Manila and Washington last year signed a landmark deal that would facilitate cooperation on the peaceful uses of the alternative energy source.
25:04.5
The National Economic and Development Authority wants to spread a culture of innovation in the country which it says is needed to help further beef up the Philippine economy.
25:14.5
Jackie Pascual has more.
25:17.7
Students from various schools plan on new projects to potentially help the country at the National Innovation Day celebration in Quezon City.
25:26.3
Many are developing apps and online services to help solve certain problems in their cities or municipalities.
25:34.2
National Economic and Development Authority Secretary Arsenio Balisacan says innovation will not only improve people experience,
25:42.4
but also the economy.
25:43.6
The Asian Development Bank also highlights the importance of developing new ideas.
25:49.9
Innovation is the key driver to sustain the improvements in living standards and overall welfare.
25:59.7
Education, in food security, in health, even in processes in government.
26:07.2
People, investors, complain about the cost of doing business.
26:15.7
Innovation is really central to the socio-economic agenda here as embodied in the Philippine Development Plan.
26:22.7
Important strides have been made in creating and enabling policy environment and really in fostering the innovation mindset.
26:32.7
Balisacan hopes the event will inspire a culture of innovation across the country, but he admits there are still barriers.
26:40.3
These barriers can be in the form of...
26:43.6
regulations, policies, mindsets, infrastructure, and so on, you know, like poor digitalization, for example.
26:54.4
Access to education, access to efficient technologies, you know, and even access to finance.
27:05.7
He says a whole of nation and whole of government approach must be done to have an innovation ecosystem
27:11.7
that will turn ideas into market-driven products, services, and processes.
27:18.4
One example cited is the innovation of Hotel 101, a Filipino brand that may soon be listed on the Nasdaq stock market in New York City.
27:26.9
Double Dragon chairman Ed Garcia tells students he created a unique business model in the hospitality sector that has not been seen worldwide
27:36.6
and hopes more students can also create good ideas.
27:41.7
Hotel 101 will soon open branches in Davao, Cebu, Madrid in Spain, and Hokkaido in Japan.
27:48.4
Hotel 101 is basic since it only has one type of room.
27:54.5
All its rooms are exactly the same, all 21 square meters, generally averages 500 plus rooms per building.
28:02.8
We also hope that the Filipino-vations that our team is working on may eventually inspire more Filipino entrepreneurs
28:13.7
The Philippines ranked 56th place out of 132 countries in the 2023 Global Innovation Index.
28:20.6
According to the index, the Philippines scored the highest in business sophistication, knowledge and technology outputs,
28:27.7
and market sophistication, but it needs further improvements in human capital and research, infrastructure, and institutions.
28:36.2
Balisakan hopes the country can improve its ranking this year by continuously investing in research,
28:41.7
and development programs, and as more Filipinos, both in the government and private sector, think out of the box.
28:49.2

Stanley, mayang hapon.
51:48.7
Alright. First, give us a sense perhaps
51:50.4
of the water supply situation in the city right now
51:52.8
and maybe share with us anecdotal
51:54.7
accounts of just how scarce
51:56.1
water is right now.
52:04.3
declaration of a state of calamity
52:10.8
of the population
52:16.7
RMO together with our
52:18.9
general went around the city
52:26.7
And they found out
52:30.6
of the population is now affected
52:36.3
portion of the population
52:51.5
of the population
53:00.2
City Disaster Risk
53:02.4
Reduction Council
53:14.4
of a state of calamity
53:16.9
due to the shortage
53:22.5
from that declaration,
53:39.0
Okay. So Mayor Trenas,
53:40.2
you were saying the city
53:41.2
has declared a state of calamity
53:42.6
as it exceeded the 15% cap
53:44.6
for the number of population,
53:46.3
or at least the percentage
53:46.9
of population affected
53:48.0
by the water supply problem,
53:50.2
enabling, of course,
53:51.9
about 12.5 million pesos worth
53:53.8
in calamity funds.
53:55.6
So what are the spending
53:56.4
priorities for that fund?
54:04.7
in a period of three months.
54:09.0
So that we will be able to buy
54:12.6
which we will deliver
54:13.7
to the barangays affected.
54:15.7
Okay. So this will largely
54:16.9
be water distribution.
54:18.3
Now, Mayor Trenas,
54:19.7
we're seeing to grapple
54:21.3
still in the next month or two.
54:24.4
a lot of residents more.
54:25.8
But how is this now
54:27.0
affecting the local economy
54:29.2
if you may share with us?
54:31.8
it has really affected
54:33.7
the local economy
54:34.8
in the sense that
54:36.4
classes have been
54:54.7
Business has been affected.
55:15.7
will be coming in
55:22.3
you are from Iloilo.
55:39.7
for the past three months.
55:48.4
Now, Mayor Treñas,
55:49.9
the call is for the public
55:51.0
to conserve water
55:54.1
specific measures,
55:55.8
that should be in place
55:56.6
to require big business
55:59.8
in conserving water.
56:01.1
Has it reached that point
56:02.2
where you have appealed
56:03.4
to businesses as well
56:04.4
to help you conserve?
56:14.9
to conserve water.
56:30.9
We've been waiting
56:35.5
it will happen soon.
56:38.3
Thank you so much
56:41.9
and the water supply
56:42.9
challenges in Iloilo City.
56:44.9
Mayor Jerry Treñas,
56:48.9
Thank you, Stanley.
56:50.6
If you don't like it,
56:54.7
Good afternoon, sir.
56:57.4
looking into allegations
56:58.3
of human rights abuses
57:01.4
unveiling the State Department's
57:02.8
annual human rights report.
57:05.0
U.S. Secretary of State
57:06.8
denied Washington
57:08.3
A double standard
57:09.0
when it comes to Israel
57:10.6
and human rights.
57:14.5
the same standard
57:19.3
whether the country
57:25.9
And that's usually important.
57:27.7
This is, I think,
57:34.8
that seeks to get
57:37.6
to get all the facts,
57:38.3
to get all the information
57:38.8
that has to be done carefully.
57:41.7
And that's exactly
57:45.7
that is the recipient
57:47.1
of military assistance
57:48.6
from the United States.
57:51.5
Israeli Prime Minister
57:52.8
Benjamin Netanyahu
57:53.8
has vowed to fight
57:54.8
sanctions that will be imposed
57:56.3
on Israeli military units
57:58.0
for alleged rights violation
57:59.6
after media reports
58:01.8
was planning such a step.
58:06.4
dozens of protesters
58:07.3
at a pro-Palestinian
58:09.3
in Yale University.
58:12.7
around Yale's campus
58:15.8
demanding the school
58:17.7
from military weapons
58:20.3
More than 45 people
58:21.7
were reportedly arrested.
58:25.2
Columbia University
58:26.2
canceled in-person classes
58:29.7
setting up tent encampments
58:31.3
at its New York City campus
58:34.6
Similar demonstrations
58:36.3
at the Massachusetts
58:36.9
Institute of Technology
58:38.2
and Emerson College
58:39.9
with students demanding
58:41.6
their universities
58:42.4
to call for an immediate
58:44.3
ceasefire in Gaza.
58:47.8
And before we go in sports,
58:49.8
the New York Knicks
58:50.7
conjure up a miracle
58:52.3
at Madison Square Garden,
58:53.9
moving them closer
58:55.4
to the second round
58:56.5
of the NBA playoffs.
58:58.4
The Knicks trailed
59:00.2
with 30 seconds remaining
59:09.3
Philadelphia 76ers.
59:12.2
All-star Jalen Brunson
59:16.3

59:25.0
in their first round series
59:30.0
here are the rest
59:32.3
playoff schedule.
59:38.2
And that'll do it
59:58.3
Thanks a lot for joining us.
59:59.4

We'll see you next time.

60:51.4
Mobility will be key
60:55.7
relaxed some of our
60:57.5
quarantine methods
60:58.8
and we have allowed
61:00.6
more transportation
61:03.1
That's going to prove
61:04.3
to be better for demand.
61:07.3
the health protocols,
61:08.2
the ability of people
61:10.5
will likely contribute
61:11.7
better to growth.
