This is a Philippines.
04:00.0
Good morning, I'm Bettina Magsaysay.
04:06.1
Join me as we give you the rundown of the news you need to know today.
04:10.1
France eyeing to begin talks for a Visiting Forces Agreement with the Philippines next month.
04:16.7
The Philippine Justice Department warrants police officers against cooperating with an international probe on the Duterte administration's drug war.
04:30.0
New York court overturns the rape conviction of disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein.
04:38.5
Welcome to the program.
04:40.4
We begin with the deepening defense ties between the Philippines and France.
04:44.9
The two countries set to begin talks for a Visiting Forces Agreement next month.
04:49.6
Back in December, top defense officials of the Philippines and France signed a letter of intent to boost security cooperation,
04:58.6
including a commitment to the Duterte administration.
04:59.8
And the Duterte administration also signed a letter of intent to boost security cooperation,
05:01.2
including a commitment to start negotiations for a VFA.
05:02.8
Such a deal would allow French forces to train with their Filipino counterparts.
05:09.1
We will have an opportunity in May to maybe start officially the negotiations or at least discuss the modalities.
05:19.4
The next meeting is May 20, May 21.
05:22.9
So that's the perfect occasion to officially discuss.
05:27.9
The French ambassador to the Indo-Pacific also highlighting the role of the Philippines
05:39.8
in maintaining regional peace and the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.
05:57.9
It was important for me to come to the Philippines.
06:01.1
The Philippines is a key partner for France in the framework of our Indo-Pacific strategy.
06:14.5
We are both a maritime country.
06:19.4
We have very strong convergence in our assessment
06:27.9
of the dynamic within the Indo-Pacific.
06:32.5
You also, through the Indo-Pacific strategy,
06:39.2
provide options to meet the challenges posed by the growing assertiveness of China.
06:57.6
the Philippines is a key partner for France in the framework of our Indo-Pacific strategy.
06:57.9
The Philippines has a Visiting Forces Agreement with the U.S. and Australia,
07:01.7
but it has been expanding defense ties with its allies as maritime tensions with China escalates.
07:08.7
It recently signed a separate defense cooperation deals with Canada and the U.K.
07:14.1
It's also negotiating a military access pact with Japan.
07:20.5
Meanwhile, France officially joins the Philippines and the U.S.
07:24.1
in this year's multilateral military exercises,
07:27.4
On Thursday, the Navy vessels of the three countries left Palawan
07:31.6
to begin their military activities in the West Philippine Sea.
07:35.8
The joint drill comes in the face of China's growing maritime aggression,
07:40.6
but Philippine troops are unbothered by China's presence during the drills.
07:46.1
We considered the presence of the Chinese maritime militia in these areas,
07:53.1
particularly in the EEZ part of our border,
07:59.0
And I believe at the operational level and tactical level,
08:04.4
the commanders have already taken into consideration within their planning
08:08.7
how to address the problems on the militia.
08:15.1
Meanwhile, the Philippines and the U.S. also boosting their maritime defense alliance.
08:19.8
The two countries are considering joint maritime law enforcement operations within Manila's waters.
08:27.0
To maintain the peace and security of the two countries,
08:27.1
and to maintain the peace and security in the South China Sea.
08:33.0
China's activities in the West Philippine Sea,
08:36.0
among the key security issues discussed during a joint National Peace and Order Council meeting in Malacanang.
08:42.8
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. presided over the meeting,
08:46.6
which tackled issues like maritime tensions, communist insurgency, cyber security, and the drug problem.
08:53.6
In a statement, Malacanang said,
08:56.2
China's activities in the West Philippine Sea, among the key security issues discussed during a joint National Peace and Order Council meeting in Malacanang.
08:56.7
China's activities in the West Philippine Sea, among the key security issues discussed during a joint National Peace and Order Council meeting in Malacanang.
08:57.3
China's activities in the West Philippine Sea, among the key security issues discussed during a joint National Peace and Order Council meeting in Malacanang.
08:57.4
Japan's activities in Manila's water jeopardize the security of the Philippines
09:00.9
through the obstruction of the country's naval operations and harassment of Filipino fisherfolk.
09:07.4
Officials also flagged what it called the use of engagements as warfare tactics to influence Filipinos.
09:17.2
Philippine authorities looking into the possible involvement of foreign intruders
09:21.6
in the recent deepfake audio mimicking President Marcos.
09:25.7
In the recent deepfake audio mimicking President Marcos,
09:25.8
police say the YouTube account that uploaded the video has been deactivated.
09:31.0
But the manipulated content was re-uploaded to other social media sites,
09:36.5
such as Facebook, with page managers located in the Philippines and Pakistan.
09:42.9
The PCO will be appointed to the DICT and NSC, the National Security Council,
09:49.5
for the investigation.
09:51.2
And it has also been coordinated with Facebook, Google,
09:54.5
and all other sources.
09:55.8
The ICT department also believes the move to spread misinformation is politically motivated.
10:22.9
The manipulated audio makes it sound like...
10:25.8
Marcos is authorizing the military to use force against China
10:30.2
amid escalating tensions in the West Philippine Sea.
10:35.2
They call it a super election year because there are about 80 countries around the world
10:40.8
that is conducting elections.
10:42.8
One side will produce some deepfake to misinform the others
10:47.9
para masway yung public opinion.
10:51.2
Pati si Putin, pati si Biden, pati si Trump,
10:55.8
sa ganun rin, no?
10:56.6
Pinipili itong mga loko-lokong cybercrime laws.
11:06.3
President Marcos orders an intensified government campaign
11:10.2
against the sexual abuse of Filipino children online.
11:14.1
The president directed the Interior Department and the police
11:17.3
to step up their monitoring of domestic and overseas cases.
11:21.1
He said the full weight of the law must be used against the perpetrators.
11:25.8
The Philippines recently logged a rising number of child exploitation cases online
11:31.6
and the sale of child sexual abuse and exploitation materials.
11:37.5
The president was visibly distressed, very bothered,
11:45.1
and clearly stressed with the information that was relayed to him.
11:50.3
This cannot only be done by a whole-of-government approach,
11:54.4
but if not, whole-of-nationally.
11:55.8
This is a whole-of-nation approach, which includes the private sector,
11:58.7
the social media platforms where these crimes usually occur.
12:06.6
The Philippine Justice Department warrants police officials
12:10.2
against cooperating in the drug war probe of the International Criminal Court.
12:15.3
This follows the claim by a former senator
12:17.8
the court has already contacted over 50 Philippine policemen.
12:23.3
Willard Cheng reports.
12:25.8
The Department of Justice warns current government officials
12:29.2
who will cooperate with the International Criminal Court
12:31.9
they may be held accountable under the law
12:34.4
as the government reiterated its refusal to recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC.
12:40.1
Well, as mentioned by the Solicitor General,
12:43.8
this is a government policy.
12:46.3
So, when a government officer or official is coordinating with the ICC
12:54.6
this is a government policy.
12:54.7
This is a government policy.
12:54.7
This is a government policy.
12:54.8
This is a government policy.
12:55.8
The direction or the orders and the policy of the government,
13:01.0
there may be accountability involved.
13:04.1
But former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV warns Clavano
13:07.4
against obstructing justice.
13:09.5
We need to educate this spokesman of the DOJ
13:14.1
because what the government cooperation is saying
13:17.3
is these are the official documents that are being submitted.
13:22.2
But if the ICC is talking to...
13:25.8
to these people as individuals,
13:28.9
eh, wala silang karapatan to stop them.
13:31.4
And in fact, alam nyo, no, yung statement na yun ng spokesman,
13:36.0
pwede siyang makasuhan ng ICC, no, meron silang obstruction of justice,
13:40.7
ano doon, probation.
13:42.1
Trillanes earlier claimed ICC investigators have directly communicated
13:46.3
with more than 50 active and former personnel
13:49.1
and officials of the Philippine National Police,
13:51.6
informing them of their implication in the crimes against humanity case,
13:55.8
against former President Rodrigo Duterte,
13:58.8
in connection with this bloody drug war.
14:01.2
Trillanes says, this involves mid-level to senior officers of the PNP,
14:06.0
responsible for cases of extrajudicial killings.
14:09.6
Kahit working in justice system mo,
14:11.5
pero kung hindi mo kakasuhan or investigahan yung mga mastermind,
14:16.5
in this case si Duterte at itong mga general na ito,
14:20.1
bakit hindi nyo iniinvestigahan ngayon?
14:24.0
Kung gumagana yung...
14:25.6
...justice system,
14:26.8
bakit hindi nyo sila kinakasuhan?
14:29.6
Yung sinasabi po nilang mga tatlo o apat na polis na na-convict,
14:35.2
out of the thousands na mga nangmatay,
14:39.7
hindi po interesado dyan ng ICC.
14:41.8
Interesado ang ICC doon sa mga mastermind.
14:45.3
Senator Ronald de la Rosa,
14:47.0
who served as chief of the PNP during Duterte's time,
14:49.9
says no ICC prosecutor ever contacted him.
14:53.9
But Trillanes says,
14:55.6
understandable since de la Rosa is a primary suspect.
14:59.7
The Philippine National Police meanwhile says,
15:02.0
it will take its cue from the national government.
15:04.7
It also warns active officers against breaking the chain of command.
15:09.2
Wala pong information yung ating mga directorates po
15:12.1
concerning po dito sa mga alleged active PNP personnel
15:16.1
na nakikipagtulungan po sa ICC.
15:18.0
Kung ikaw ay isang active personnel at you are performing any activities,
15:25.6
that is contrary to what is being stated officially ng PNP po,
15:31.2
then possibly po na may kakaharapin pong sanction po ang sino mga polis
15:35.9
na hindi po susunod doon sa tinatawag po nating chain of command po.
15:40.8
The PNP spokesperson maintains,
15:43.0
there are no extrajudicial killings in the country.
15:45.6
The PNP and other law enforcement agencies for that matter
15:49.9
does not engage in extrajudicial killing.
15:52.6
Kasi kung titignan po natin yung law,
15:55.6
legal meaning po ng extrajudicial killings,
15:58.2
ang ibig sabihin po nito ay deliberate intent na pagpatay sa isang tao
16:03.2
without lawful authority coming from any judicial proceeding
16:08.6
at talagang state-sponsored po ito.
16:11.4
Willard Cheng, ABS-CBN News.
16:15.3
The Philippines is currently experiencing a power crisis
16:19.0
with its thinning power supply.
16:21.6
Energy Secretary Rafael Lotilla called the red and yellow alerts
16:25.6
plaguing the country's power grids a calamity.
16:28.7
The Energy Department warns consumers,
16:31.1
rising temperatures may continue to affect power plants
16:34.2
until after the expected peak of summer in mid-May.
16:39.2
We really have to work on reducing our consumption
16:45.7
and avoiding particularly unnecessary power consumption
16:54.2
during the peak hours.
16:58.7
So if we can postpone as we have done in the past,
17:02.1
certain high power consuming activities
17:06.1
during the off-peak hours,
17:09.1
that would be a big help.
17:15.4
Lotilla says measures are being undertaken to conserve power
17:19.3
such as reduced working hours.
17:21.6
Energy officials also assuring additional,
17:24.2
are expected to boost local grids this year.
17:29.7
More than 4,000 megawatts will come online this 2024
17:35.2
and it will actually help our grid.
17:38.8
To date, 161.2 megawatts of the 2024 committed projects
17:44.2
are in full commercial operation
17:46.3
while 835 megawatts are under test and commissioning.
17:51.5
So even though they're test and commissioning,
17:53.3
we are injecting power to the grid.
17:56.4
Of the expected capacities,
17:58.5
4,030 megawatts are in Luzon,
18:02.0
80.25 megawatts are in Visayas,
18:05.2
and 52.5 megawatts are in Mindanao.
18:09.2
In terms of timeline,
18:10.9
1,224 megawatts will operate in the second quarter,
18:15.7
1,352 megawatts third quarter,
18:19.2
and 1,571 megawatts
18:22.2
in the fourth quarter.
18:28.9
Now here's a look at other stories we're tracking today.
18:32.2
At 9 in the morning,
18:33.3
transport groups and advocates will conduct a forum
18:36.3

19:26.9
The easterlies is now prevailing
19:28.3
over the whole archipelago
19:29.8
and this will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies
19:31.9
aside from isolated rain showers
19:33.7
mostly in the afternoon or in the evening.
19:37.1
Currently, we're not monitoring
19:38.5

19:39.5

19:41.5

This is where newsmakers answer to you.
22:28.1
It's just confidential.
22:29.4
You can't bring it out to the public.
22:31.0
But who can flag them?
22:32.4
We'll ask what they did with the budget
22:33.7
and how they spent it.
22:35.1
Our commitment to the Philippines
22:36.8
stands on its own.
22:38.6
It's not about any third country.
22:40.7
It's not about China.
22:42.5
This is where headlines are made.
22:44.5
We need two things.
22:46.0
One, you need to grow the economy rapidly.
22:48.6
Number two, you have to make that growth
22:53.0
I also didn't have faith in Duterte
22:55.3
because he was my persecutor.
22:57.5
But I have faith in the justice system.
23:00.7
This is where we do the news.
23:03.4
The future of the Philippines,
23:05.5
the security of the Philippines,
23:07.4
the well-being of Filipinos

It must free itself from endemic corruption.
23:14.9
Malaysia should not be known
23:16.2
because of these various past scandals.
23:19.3
This isn't just talk.
23:20.6
It's not a surplus.
23:22.0
Because the profits are earmarked.
23:24.8

25:35.0
Now news overseas,
25:37.1
the New York Appeals Court
25:38.5
overturns the 2020 conviction
25:40.6
of former American film producer
25:43.6
for sexual assault and rape.
25:46.1
In a 4-3 decision,
25:47.6
the court said the trial judge
25:49.6
made a critical mistake
25:51.2
by letting women testify
25:52.7
that Weinstein assaulted them
25:54.4
even though their accusations
25:56.1
were not part of the charges he faced.
25:59.2
Weinstein's lawyer says
26:00.8
they always believed the law
26:02.5
was incorrectly applied in his trial.
26:06.5
Today's legal ruling
26:07.9
is a great day for America
26:10.0
because it instills in us
26:15.0
that there is a justice system
26:17.9
even though there's a hundred,
26:19.6
six, seven-year-old Madonna

though, is not expected to be freed
26:51.4
immediately. He still faces
26:53.4
a separate 16-year prison term
26:55.7
imposed last year in California
26:57.7
for the 2013 rape
26:59.6
of an actress. That conviction
27:05.4
The decision of New York's top
27:07.5
court reopens the landmark case
27:09.6
that fueled the MeToo movement.
27:11.8
Weinstein's conviction was considered
27:13.6
a milestone for the campaign
27:15.2
in which hundreds of men in entertainment,
27:17.6
media, politics, and other
27:19.9
fields have been accused of
27:21.8
sexual misconduct.
27:23.8
Some states, including New York,
27:26.4
responded to the movement
27:27.5
by passing laws that let women
27:29.5
bring civil lawsuits seeking
27:31.7
damages for sexual misconduct
27:34.0
that occurred many years earlier
27:35.7
even if statutes of limitations
27:37.6
have already passed. Though
27:39.6
a blow to their cause, those
27:41.7
behind the campaign say this
27:43.7
only means more work needs to
27:45.8
be done in holding powerful
27:51.4
We are devastated
27:53.0
for the survivors who are
27:55.8
connected to this case and
27:57.7
the survivors who had found some
27:59.5
solace and catharsis
28:01.9
in the original verdict around
28:03.9
Harvey Weinstein. And a lot of us felt
28:07.9
a road to seeing a different America.
28:16.1
makes it feel like we were,
28:20.3
Inevitably, there will be
28:21.6
headlines in the coming days
28:23.5
and weeks talking about
28:25.1
what this means for the MeToo movement.
28:29.5
not a blow to the movement.
28:35.5
prepared to answer that call.
28:37.6
This today is an act of institutional
28:41.3
And our institutions betray
28:43.5
survivors of male sexual
28:45.4
violence. And we need to
28:47.3
work within and without the systems
28:51.3
what is known as institutional
28:58.8
And that's the rundown today on Bettina Magsaysay.

Mobility will be key
29:49.3
to recovery. Because we
29:51.5
have relaxed some of our
29:53.6
quarantine methods, and
29:55.3
we have allowed more
29:57.1
transportation to come out.
29:59.2
That's going to prove to be
30:01.0
better for demand. If we do follow
30:03.4
the health protocols, the ability
30:05.6
of people to move around will likely
30:07.3
contribute better to growth.
