00:02 Here is the PTV news for now.
00:08 The Department of Education or DepEd has already issued a warrant for the shooting of the principal of Santo Tomas North in Hain, Nueva Ecija.
00:16 On September 19, the principal, Eden Dacis, was shot while entering the school.
00:22 The victim was able to enter the gate of the school while waiting for her grandfather.
00:28 Now, she is recovering in the hospital.
00:31 The entrance to Santo Tomas Elementary School is suspended while the investigation is still ongoing.
00:37 DepEd is also asking the authorities to give a reason for the shooting and the motive behind the crime.
00:45 Meanwhile, FIVOC is still reminding the affected areas of Smag or Bog from the Taal Volcano.
00:53 According to FIVOC, residents should avoid leaving their homes unless it is necessary to walk and wear N95 masks.
01:02 This Monday, more than 4,000 tons of sulfur dioxide reached the volcano.
01:09 There are also recorded 6 volcanic tremors.
01:12 For now, the Taal Volcano is still on alert level 1.
01:18 Most probably, what was captured yesterday was the part of Agoncillo de Enza NicolƔs because the wind drifted to the southwest.
01:25 Meanwhile, we will now know more from Jesse Atienza of PTV Cebu.
01:34 Thank you, Alan, and good day.
01:37 The Subcaroon has agreed to return to the Subo Council on the implementation of their Rice Conservation Ordinance.
01:47 It has been almost 10 years since the rice conservation ordinance was formally passed in the city.
01:55 It is now in place in the area where fast food chains sell half-rice in their menus.
02:03 Cebu City Councilor Mary Andalo Santos has agreed to the ordinance
02:08 and has assured that the rice will not be wasted by consumers.
02:12 She has also asked that the residents who do not follow the ordinance be monitored by the City Health Office.
02:19 If you go to the restaurants now, it is not part of their menu.
02:24 Half-rice is not part of their menu.
02:26 So if you put half-rice there, you have an option.
02:30 Some, they order one cup of rice, but they cannot finish it.
02:36 You know, had they implemented this 9, 10 years ago, this could already be a normal course of all chain of restaurants,
02:46 whether you're Class A, Class B, Class C, D, E.
02:50 But, you know, it's just putting in your menu half-rice.
02:54 So this is what I'm trying to tell everyone.
02:57 I deliver this privileged speech because let's go back to the basics.
03:02 It's practically the conservation issue.
03:05 The City Council has formally signed the Memorandum of Agreement on the rehabilitation of Butuanon and Mahiga River.
03:16 Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama and Mandawi City Mayor Jonas Cortez
03:23 are the ones who initiated the City Hall on the conservation of the river.
03:26 The signing of the Memorandum of Agreement was held at the two-day Collaborative River Governance Forum,
03:31 Two Rivers, One Movement, held in the business sector.
03:35 The government and government agencies of the two provinces came together
03:40 to ensure that the two provinces will contribute to the conservation of the river
03:45 and to the rehabilitation of Butuanon and Mahiga River.
03:48 This November, the members of the Tukurong Technical Working Group of the two LGUs will meet to discuss the action plan.
03:56 And those are the latest news from PTV Cebu.
