00:00Let's go back to the heart of Mandaue City.
00:09My all up on the spot, Nico Sereno of GNA Beach, how do you feel, Nico?
00:17Yes, Cecil, there are more people in the cemeteries here in Cebu, just like here in Barangay Guizo
00:24in Mandaue City, where there are four cemeteries next to each other.
00:29Just this morning, in Barangay Guizo, a part of the road was closed to the four large cemeteries.
00:35That's why people have to walk to the cemeteries and to the very gates of their loved ones.
00:41Here in St. Joseph Roman Catholic Cemetery, security is tight on the entrances
00:47and their belongings are inspected.
00:50Just this morning, some people were confiscated cleaning supplies of the gates
00:54and things like scissors, shovels, and tools.
00:59Paintings are also prohibited today and tomorrow due to the large number of people.
01:05Inside the cemeteries, we were able to inspect the Macawaninang Bureau of Fire.
01:10Aside from the exit areas, they are inspecting the line of lights in the cemeteries.
01:16Cebuans have already put candles at the end of their loved ones' lives
01:22within two days of the earthquake.
01:25Those accommodating for mass intentions for the dead are also busy.
01:30The worshippers of prayer, rosary, and prayer for the dead are also busy
01:36and some of them are still alive during the earthquake.
01:42Cecil, the cemeteries here in Mandaue City are open 24 hours a day
01:45but people are not allowed to stay overnight.
01:48They are only allowed to stay here in the cemeteries.
01:51They can also stay for a long time,
01:52but they are not allowed to set up a tent for them to stay overnight here in the cemeteries.
01:57Cecil?
02:02Thank you very much.
02:03Nico Sereno of GMA Regional TV.
02:07Aside from visiting the cemeteries,
02:09there are also people who chose to go on vacation this long holiday weekend.
02:13On Boracay Island, the tourists organized Halloween activities there
02:17like the Festival of the Dead last night.
02:20The Malay Tourism Office expects to see an additional 134,000 tourist arrivals
02:26from October 1 to 29.
02:28But due to the passing of time,
02:30some water activities on the island will be suspended for the time being.
02:34Meanwhile, there are residents who visited their loved ones in Malay.
02:39Smoking and drinking is prohibited inside the cemeteries.
02:45Visitors to the cemeteries are also reminded to maintain cleanliness.
02:56Stretching,
02:59smoking,
03:02and later,
03:03prohibition.
03:08And the chase of cars on this part of the National Highway in Cebu City,
03:13Son Goku and his sidekick, Spider-Man.
03:19At one point,
03:21they even fought with a man wearing a Batman mask in the middle of the highway.
03:27They also fought with a motorcyclist wearing a Pikachu costume.
03:32This is part of the content posted on the social media of the vlogger, Boy Banat.
03:37But the PNP, Highway Patrol Group in Cebu, did not like it.
03:42They did not show it in the video,
03:44but they also made a dangerous scene.
03:47What they did was,
03:52they rode a tricycle.
03:54Spider-Man was driving.
03:55Son Goku was on top of the tricycle.
03:58Batman was in the middle of the road.
04:00Batman, you can't reach him.
04:02So first, they were called by the authorities
04:04just to inform them that they didn't do it.
04:08The content creators, Son Goku and Spider-Man,
04:12were sent to the HPG-7 office.
04:15They did not remove the mask and did not give an apology to the media.
04:19They said, with great power comes great responsibility.
04:23That's why the two of them,
04:25were able to ask for an apology.
04:27It's hard to defend.
04:29Because most of the content,
04:31it's not good.
04:33To my fans,
04:36I read that it's not allowed to ride a tricycle here.
04:40So, I decided to throw away the content.
04:43It's better to ride a tricycle here
04:45than to ride a tricycle in the middle of the road.
04:49It's dangerous to ride a tricycle in the middle of the road.
04:54It's better to ride a tricycle here.
04:56After being informed by the police,
04:58the two of them were sent home.
05:00I'm Luan Merondina of GMA Regional TV
05:03reporting for GMA Integrated News.
05:16Meanwhile, thousands of people are visiting Manila South Cemetery.
05:20The latest on the spot by Darlene Cai.
05:23Darlene?
05:28Rafi, where are the people who will be going to Manila South Cemetery
05:32to visit their loved ones?
05:35Based on the latest report by the police,
05:38more than 13,000 people are already inside the cemetery.
05:45But since 5 a.m. earlier this morning,
05:48more than 16,000 people have already entered.
05:53What you see now is the main entrance
05:57where most people enter.
06:00What happens there at the entrance
06:02is that the rows of women and men are separated
06:07and the items they bring are inspected.
06:10As of now, a lot of cigarettes and drugs have already been confiscated.
06:14The police are also taking the vape or e-cigarettes.
06:17But there is a number that will be given,
06:19so it can be claimed when released.
06:22Some wallets have also been confiscated
06:24because it is now prohibited to clean here in the cemetery
06:26because the last day of cleaning was on October 25.
06:30Aside from that,
06:31it is also prohibited to bring flammable materials,
06:34alcohol,
06:35rotten or rotten things,
06:37and even pets are not allowed to be brought here.
06:41Any type of vehicle is also not allowed inside,
06:44so only pedestrians are allowed to enter the cemetery.
06:48But near the entrance,
06:50there are wheelchairs for elderly, senior citizens, and PWDs.
06:55There are also e-vehicles that can be driven freely
06:58from the entrance to the cemeteries.
07:01Aside from the main entrance,
07:02there are metal stairs on Kalayaan Avenue
07:05and Metropolitan Avenue.
07:07Pedestrians can also enter there.
07:10Police are also guarding and inspecting the items there
07:14so that the people who enter the main entrance
07:16can be decongested or reduced.
07:20We talked to some pedestrians who brought food
07:23aside from flowers and candles.
07:26There are also relatives
07:29who are wearing the same T-shirt
07:31with the faces of their loved ones.
07:34Here is our interview with the people we talked to.
07:41Of course, it's important to us
07:43because we don't see them anymore.
07:47We miss them.
07:49She wanted this.
07:50She wanted a T-shirt.
07:52When she passed away, we gave her a T-shirt.
07:55She likes it a lot.
07:56She likes to wear it whenever she goes out.
08:06Rafi, the sun is shining today
08:09and the weather is hot and humid
08:11here in Manila South Cemetery.
08:13So, to our loved ones who are just arriving here,
08:17make sure to bring an umbrella and water.
08:22Also, wear fresh clothes.
08:24That's the latest from Manila South Cemetery.
08:26Back to you, Rafi.
08:28Thank you very much, Darlene Cai.
08:31An authority raided a business process outsourcing
08:33or BPO company in Bagac, Bataan.
08:36It was followed by a complaint from some Filipinos
08:37that they were victims of labor trafficking.
08:40Salima Refran brought the news.
08:47The AFP, PNP, PAOC, and Bureau of Immigration
08:50are the Central One Bataan BPO in Bagac, Bataan.
08:55They set up a search warrant for seven houses in the compound
08:59and 15 foreign nationals who are being run by BPO.
09:04We received a complaint from Filipinos
09:07that they were victims of labor trafficking here.
09:10Now, there are also foreign nationals
09:12who are inside but cannot leave.
09:14Computers, cell phones, and devices are being seen
09:19here in the work area of the BPO company in Bagac, Bataan.
09:24But it's different from the BPO companies in Pogo.
09:27Most of the employees here are Filipinos.
09:31There are also SIM cards and other gadgets.
09:35In the initial search on the desktops,
09:37transactions for online betting abroad were seen.
09:40There are chats that contain important information
09:43and monitoring on e-wallets.
09:45That's 2.6 million.
09:49So, with the amount we see here,
09:51we could be talking of billions of pesos worth of bets
09:55at any given week.
09:57This is a result of a month-long surveillance
10:01and research operation.
10:03We have initial violations
10:06in our initial inspections.
10:08So, we can see that we will have a very airtight case
10:12against the suspects that are here.
10:15They're operating back-end support operations
10:17for businesses.
10:18They don't know what businesses they're supporting.
10:21Do you know that they're offering cryptocurrency services?
10:25They don't know.
10:25Now, if you also offer cryptocurrency services,
10:29you have to clarify from the monetary board,
10:34monetary authorities of the Philippines.
10:37Central One Bataan is a BPO business process outsourcing
10:41and not an internet gaming licensee or Pogo.
10:45BPO has permits from the local government
10:48and the authority of the Freeport area of Bataan, Oafa.
10:53But the authorities told us...
10:55He's a BPO and he was given a permit
10:59from the investment promotion area.
11:03He has a permit there,
11:05but he still needs a secondary permit
11:07coming from the PACOR.
11:08And that's what he doesn't have.
11:10All of this was denied by the CEO of Central One Bataan.
11:14Not true.
11:15We are running a business support services
11:19and we are complying to DOLE.
11:21No one is held here against their will.
11:23Nothing to hide.
11:24We are just a business services support company.
11:28Just this June,
11:29the provincial government inspected the facility
11:31of AFAB and Bagac LGU.
11:34GMA Integrated News is also trying to get hold
11:38of government agencies.
11:40According to Central One,
11:411,500 of their employees are there.
11:44Only 5% of them are foreigners.
11:47Foreigners will travel to the PAOF detention facility
11:50in Pasay.
11:52Around 700 Filipinos are missing
11:55after being processed.
11:57We will assist in the case build-up
11:59so that we can have an airtight case
12:03and our Secretary of Justice doesn't want us
12:05to file a case that will ultimately be dismissed
12:10in the preliminary investigation.
12:12Sanima Refrain reporting for GMA Integrated News.
