In 2016, the Philippines emerged as the center of child sex abuse materials production in the world based on a study done by UNICEF.
02:08.4
In 2022, disrupting harm study conducted by UNICEF, ECPAT International, and Interpol shows that 20% of internet-using Filipino children aged 12 to 17, or 2 million children, were victimized by OSAIC.
02:24.8
Additionally, 23 to 38% of the children who are victims do not have a child.
02:30.0
OSAIC is an egregious form of violence against children. It is a borderless and hidden crime. It happens mostly in the home and is likely facilitated by trusted guardians and sometimes parents.

Are there any measures to regulate this?
44:29.1
Also po, we are waiting for the guidelines for the AMLC in order to properly guide po yung mga payment system providers natin on what constitutes as red flags, as what possible money transactions could be osaic.
44:46.7
Tapos last question na lang po, na-mention rin po nila kanina na kayo pag-cooperate po sila sa mga social media at telcos.
44:53.9
Na-mention po nila na meron sila yung reporting mechanism.
44:58.1
Pero meron rin po ba?
44:59.1
Ang data regarding dun sa kung ilang accounts yung pinaklose down ng mga social media or telcos regarding dito sa...
45:07.1
So, ang close down po is different from takedown.
45:10.6
So, when you say close down, sa NTC yun, sila talaga nagbablock ng buong website.
45:16.3
Kapag takedown naman, you just take down the material.
45:20.6
So, I do have data. I'll just go, I'll just skim over po my notes for that.
45:29.1
We'll get back to you because we're running out of time.
45:35.0
Let's go back to Alvin Baltazar, Radyo Pilipinas.
45:39.7
Other topic po sana.
45:43.5
Eden Santos na 25.
45:45.4
I can answer this question already.
45:46.9
So, sa Iyakat po and sa NCC osaic, we have our Cyber Tip Monitoring Center.
45:51.5
So, we have intelligence agents there.
45:53.2
So, since August of 2023, ang takedown po na cases nila,
45:59.1
nila sa, using the META portal, META, which is Facebook,
46:03.1
81 takedown na po ng mga osaic at sisayang materials.
46:07.5
So, Eden Santos na 25.
46:09.9
Kay Frater General Manalad,
46:12.7
is it possible po, General, na ngayon pa lang pwedeng pag-aralan na po
46:18.2
yung posibleng batas na pwedeng isulong sa Kongreso
46:23.7
laban po dito sa mga AI-generated materials
46:29.0
nung trainings ninyo,
46:31.0
meron na rin nakasuport ang batas, ano po.
46:34.1
Lalo talam naman natin ngayon,
46:35.5
talagang talamak po itong mga deepfake, ano,
46:38.8
at lalo, Pangula natin, isa na rin sa mga biktima po.
46:42.9
Ma'am, pasok na po siya sa Republic Act 11930.
46:46.5
Nag-uusap po kami ngayon ni D.O.G.,
46:48.2
ng ating, ni ASIC po.
46:51.7
Pasok na po siya sa Republic Act 11930.
46:59.0
ang kanina po ang sinasabi kong challenge
47:01.6
is yung pagdumating po siya
47:03.1
ay yung katulad sa ibang bansa na
47:08.3
yung technology po kasi eh,
47:10.5
ang pinag-uusapan po natin dito is the technology.
47:15.4
kung ito pong pinag-uusapan natin is the basic AI
47:18.4
generated, di ba po,
47:20.4
it's already in the law.
47:23.9
Just to build on what General said, no,
47:26.8
because there are some internet,
47:28.8
internet intermediaries,
47:29.6
meron na silang systems in place,
47:32.6
kapag real child ang involved,
47:34.8
yun talagang madedetect nila if si Siam's going on.
47:37.3
But, they're telling us,
47:38.6
their system does not yet recognize
47:40.6
AI-generated children.
47:43.3
So, I guess that's what General Manalat po is saying,
47:45.9
is that they're trying to improve or upgrade their system
47:48.3
to recognize these IA-generated images of children.
47:54.9
can you consider it as lucrative business talaga?
47:58.8
pabalik pa ulit-ulit lang,
48:01.7
At saka, hindi ho ba dapat mas
48:04.0
stiffer yung penalty laban doon sa mga
48:07.2
mapapatunayan po,
48:08.9
either kahit magulang pa nila yan
48:11.6
para hindi na parang
48:16.0
paulit-ulit lang yung nangyayari
48:17.3
mga ganitong mga kaso.
48:19.1
Ma'am, pag napatunayan na
48:20.8
nag-violate talaga ng RA 11930,
48:23.2
ang pinakamatas na penalty yata, ma'am,
48:25.2
is life imprisonment.
48:28.8
yun po ang nasa batas.
48:32.9
Um, lucrative po,
48:34.5
kanina po nasabi, ma'am,
48:36.0
na talagang millions,
48:38.2
hundred of millions,
48:43.4
ng perpetrator po.
48:48.2
sa tingin ko po, very lucrative siya
48:50.0
when it comes to financial gain.
48:54.5
Um, kunwari po yung bata,
48:59.7
Um, meron na po bang
49:05.6
reklamo yung bata,
49:07.4
or hindi niya po pinayagan
49:09.6
na makaswayan yung magulang?
49:11.3
At yung ating pong batas ang siyang
49:12.8
nagsusulong ng kaso again sa magulang?
49:15.9
Sa ngayon po, wala pa kami nakita
49:17.5
na umurong yung bata dahil magulang
49:20.9
Usually po, ang bata ay nakahiwalay
49:23.6
na kagad sa magulang,
49:26.0
perpetrator o yung facilitator,
49:28.4
ay yung nanay niya o yung tatay niya.
49:31.0
Um, to add to that na po,
49:33.0
we actually have,
49:35.0
the DOJ actually issued a
49:37.0
memorandum circular, no?
49:39.0
Directing all our prosecutors
49:41.0
to vehemently oppose
49:43.0
mga affidavit of desistance
49:45.0
that was executed by the child
49:47.0
or the family or the guardians.
49:49.0
So, again po, that's actually
49:51.0
also as directed under the law.
49:53.0
Bawal pong affidavit of desistance.
50:00.3
We have time for just a few more questions.
50:02.3
Ase Clavano, dun po siya nabanggit
50:04.3
200 convictions noong
50:06.3
2022. Pwede pong malaman,
50:08.3
out of ilang cases na na-file ito?
50:14.3
So, it's a very high conviction
50:20.3
mainly because of
50:22.3
the case build-up rule.
50:24.3
So, nagkaroon po tayo ng magandang
50:26.3
mekinismo. Together,
50:28.3
with the police and the prosecutors, na
50:30.3
hindi naman tayo mag-file ng case
50:32.3
pag alam natin na mahinang ebidensya.
50:36.3
new memorandum circular, sorry,
50:38.3
department circular,
50:40.3
mandating the hand-in-hand coordination
50:42.3
between the police and the prosecutors,
50:44.3
we've come up with a very good
50:46.3
conviction rate. However, just the
50:48.3
number of cases that have been filed alone
50:50.3
are unsatisfactory to us
50:52.3
so far. So, kahit maganda po yung
50:54.3
conviction rate, and at least we know that we have a good
50:56.3
collectivism on hand,
50:58.3
we still have to ramp up the number of cases
51:00.3
being filed in court.
51:06.3
Go ahead, Pia Gutierrez, ABS-CBN.
51:10.3
Yuse Clavano. Si former senator
51:12.3
Trillanes said that he has information
51:16.3
investigators are already in communication
51:18.3
with active and former
51:20.3
PNP officials in connection
51:22.3
to their ongoing probe on the
51:24.3
previous administration's drug war.
51:26.3
Meron na po ba tayo? Is the DOJ
51:28.3
aware of this? Well, we
51:30.3
have not received the same information.
51:34.3
everybody else, we found out from
51:36.3
Senator Trillanes about this
51:38.3
supposed development. But
51:40.3
I think we've been consistent from the very start
51:42.3
that we have a working justice
51:44.3
system here in the Philippines,
51:46.3
evidenced by a lot of different
51:48.3
cases and reforms
51:50.3
that we have been undertaking, and the
51:52.3
commitment has never been stronger
51:56.3
and to hold responsible and
51:58.3
accountable those erring law enforcement
52:00.3
officers who engage
52:04.3
heinous crime, I would say,
52:06.3
of extrajudicial killings.
52:08.3
So, even without verifying
52:12.3
the government's stance is consistent
52:14.3
ever since. The President
52:16.3
has been very firm
52:18.3
by saying that we will not
52:20.3
recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC
52:22.3
because we indeed have a very
52:26.3
justice system. Following
52:28.3
on that, Sir, since the Philippines
52:30.3
will not cooperate in the
52:32.3
ICC probe, does that cover government
52:34.3
officials as well? Meaning,
52:36.3
bawal po ba silang makipag-cooperate on
52:38.3
their personal capacity if kinontak
52:40.3
sila ng ICC? Well,
52:42.3
as mentioned by the Solicitor
52:46.3
a government policy.
52:50.3
government officer or official
52:54.3
with the ICC against
53:00.3
and the policy of the government,
53:02.3
there may be accountability
53:10.3
any law enforcement or
53:12.3
government official that goes against
53:14.3
the policies and orders of the
53:16.3
authorities in position,
53:18.3
then obviously there will be some sort
53:20.3
of conflict of interest,
53:22.3
there will be accountabilities
53:24.3
and definitely liabilities.
53:26.3
What about retired officials, Sir?
53:28.3
Well, if they are
53:32.3
civilian capacity or personal
53:34.3
capacity, then of course
53:36.3
we have little to
53:44.3
we will not recognize anything that
53:46.3
will come out of that
53:48.3
conversation or coordination with them.
53:50.3
Nasa lang, Sir, anong pwede
53:54.3
Yung mga magkakooperate, Sir?
53:56.3
There are certain provisions
54:00.3
Republic Act 6713,
54:02.3
which is the conduct
54:04.3
of public officers.
54:08.3
ethical guidelines followed by
54:10.3
all public officials.
54:14.3
if you go against the policy,
54:18.3
under those provisions, the liabilities.
54:22.3
Alvin Baltazar, Radio Pilipinas.
54:24.3
Mike, please, Eden.
54:32.3
on the legal process
54:36.3
undertaken on the case of
54:38.3
Pastor Apollo Kiboloy
54:40.3
amid his refusal to subject
54:44.3
to the court's jurisdiction?
54:48.3
the respondent or the
54:50.3
accused has to submit his
54:52.3
person to the court for the
54:54.3
court to be able to assert its
54:56.3
jurisdiction and to subject him
54:58.3
to other processes under the law.
55:00.3
As of right now, there are two outstanding
55:02.3
warrants of arrest for the two cases
55:04.3
of child abuse and qualified trafficking.
55:08.3
update as well, we've transferred
55:10.3
the cases from Davao
55:16.3
team of prosecutors
55:18.3
may be able to prosecute
55:20.3
both cases together
55:26.3
obviously, he's still at large, so the law enforcement
55:28.3
agents are still on the lookout
55:32.3
continued the operations to be able
55:34.3
to arrest on the basis of
55:36.3
the warrants that have been issued by the court.
55:38.3
Asek, since Navagate, he's still
55:40.3
at large. Based on the information
55:42.3
you have, is he still
55:44.3
in the Philippines?
55:46.3
Yes, we do have information
55:48.3
that he's still within the country
55:50.3
unless there are new developments
55:52.3
from the police. But
55:54.3
as far as our information is concerned
55:56.3
at the DOJ, he is currently
55:58.3
still in the country.
56:00.3
Asek, how about the case of
56:02.3
Bantag and Tevez? How are they?
56:06.3
obviously, there's an international component
56:08.3
to the Tevez case. He is now
56:10.3
arrested and under the custody of the police
56:14.3
However, we are awaiting the
56:16.3
decision of the courts there as
56:18.3
we have submitted already the
56:26.3
when they got to Timor-Leste,
56:28.3
actually, that operation
56:30.3
was a success because when they
56:32.3
had arrived in Timor-Leste,
56:34.3
two hours after their arrival,
56:36.3
the arrest of Tevez happened.
56:38.3
And for them to come home
56:40.3
without him is not an unsuccessful
56:42.3
operation. In fact,
56:44.3
it was successful because
56:46.3
the only responsibility of the law enforcement,
56:48.3
especially the NBI director, was to
56:50.3
have him arrested. So it was a success.
56:52.3
I think the director was just being humble when he
56:54.3
said that they were being uncooperative
56:56.3
over there. But it was no longer
56:58.3
his responsibility. It is the responsibility
57:00.3
of the legal team to now
57:02.3
go through the process
57:04.3
to have him extradited
57:06.3
or deported back to the Philippines.
57:08.3
So with these things, we just have to stay
57:10.3
patient. We are dotting
57:12.3
all the I's, crossing all the T's to make sure
57:14.3
that we follow the right process,
57:18.3
the respondent due process
57:20.3
so that there is nothing that can
57:22.3
be attributed to the government
57:24.3
saying that we took shortcuts
57:26.3
and what not. So we have taken
57:28.3
every process possible
57:30.3
to get this done. And we are here at the
57:32.3
tail end now. Once he is back
57:34.3
here in the Philippines, we hope that he
57:36.3
will muster the courage to finally
57:38.3
face his charges in court.
57:44.3
We have a general idea already
57:46.3
of his whereabouts.
57:48.3
So it's just a matter of time. Again,
57:50.3
with these things, we just have to stay
57:52.3
patient. These things don't happen overnight.
57:54.3
The wheels of justice,
57:56.3
they grind slowly.
57:58.3
But they grind very finely.
58:00.3
So we just have to stay patient.
58:04.3
Okay, I think this...
58:06.3
Okay, last question.
58:08.3
Julie Aurelio, Inquirer.
58:18.3
po yung Akbayan for the
58:22.3
issue a whole departure order against
58:24.3
Chief Buloy? What do you have to say about
58:26.3
that request? Thank you.
58:28.3
Yes, that has been brought up.
58:30.3
And I believe the prosecutors
58:32.3
have already filed their
58:36.3
a whole departure order. These are
58:40.3
processes that the prosecutors are
58:44.3
once you have a respondent
58:46.3
or an accused that is
58:48.3
a flight risk, especially given the
58:50.3
resources that this person
58:54.3
prosecutors are very diligent
58:56.3
in making sure that that
58:58.3
doesn't happen. That
59:00.3
the accused is able to
59:02.3
leave the country without actually facing
59:06.3
in the proper forum.
59:08.3
But so far, sir, is he on the lookout bulletin
59:12.3
Yes. Thank you, sir.
59:14.3
Okay, thank you for all the questions, Malacanang
59:16.3
Press Corps. And again, on the OSAIC
59:18.3
and CISAEM, the President
59:20.3
would like to convene another meeting
59:22.3
next month. So we should probably
59:24.3
hear another update from that. Thank you,
59:26.3
General Manalat, Assec. Lavano,
59:28.3
and Attorney Magsaysay of the DOJ.
59:30.3
And maraming salamat, Malacanang
59:32.3
Press Corps. Good afternoon.
