00:08Some of them will be left behind in their fellow Filipinos.

00:19Rafi, it's been less than a month since the total POGO ban was imposed at the end of the year.
00:25Almost 200 POGO workers will be deported back to China this afternoon.
00:30Some of them were brought back by their families.
00:33It's sad to know that they will be forced to leave their loved ones.
00:40Some of the POGO workers will be forced to leave their loved ones.
00:47The tears of these children will be shed.
00:50The Chinese father will not only leave his Filipino partner,
00:53but also his 5-month-old daughter.
00:56It's possible that this will be the last time the father will see his daughter.
00:59The POGO workers who will be deported back to China this afternoon will be accompanied by a man.
01:05His name is Sanggol.
01:06The POGO baby, who is being supported by PAOK, was also arrested.
01:10It's also painful for the wives and partners of some deportees to worry.
01:15Here is the statement of some of them.
01:21Dear President, please help us.
01:31Please give us a chance to get our partner back.
01:45They are unfair.
01:55The Chinese who don't work for POGO will be affected, including my husband.
02:06Raffy Coney, aside from the DSWD,
02:08the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of PAOK is also considering
02:12the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines for POGO babies or Chinese parents.
02:18PAOK Executive Director Yusek Gilbert Cruz said
02:21that their problem now will be the status of the children here in the Philippines,
02:25especially when it comes to the issue of the birth certificate of babies.
02:28Chinese parents will be deported because of immigration violations.
02:32They came from the raids of POGO in Lapu-Lapu, Cebu,
02:35Bambantarlak, Clark in Pampanga, and here in Pasay.
02:39According to PAOK, until December 31,
02:41there will be foreign POGO workers to leave the country.
02:44If they arrive on the first day of 2025, they will be considered illegal aliens.
02:50PAOK said that the campaign against illegal POGO will be postponed until January.
02:57Meanwhile, at this time, Raffy Coney,
02:59the POGO workers who will be deported are already inside the terminal.
03:04This afternoon, their flight will return to Shanghai, China.
03:08That's all for the latest from Naia Terminal 1.

06:45In the next two months,
06:47the price of products and services in the country has increased rapidly.
06:51According to the Philippine Statistics Authority,
06:53the estimated inflation rate for November is 2.5%.
06:57Although inflation has increased rapidly in the past month,
07:00it is still one of the lowest or slowest inflations in 2024.
07:06According to the PSA,
07:07the main reason for the increase in inflation
07:11is the rapid increase in food prices,
07:14particularly vegetables, fish, and meat.
07:17The slow decrease in the price of gasoline and diesel
07:21also contributes to the increase in inflation.
07:23Inflation this November
07:25entered the 2.2% to 3% forecast range
07:28of the Philippine Central Bank.

08:25For many buyers,
08:27this is good news
08:29because they will be able to budget their purchases.
08:32I will try it because it looks good.
08:34It looks good. It's good for mass production.
08:37It's good.
08:38It's really cheap nowadays
08:41because almost everything is expensive now.
08:44Php 40 is enough for mass production.
08:46But according to some of the vendors we talked to,
08:49they are the ones who are stuck
08:51with the directive to lower the price of their rice to Php 40.
08:54I'm lowering the price of rice.
08:56There's nothing I can do.
08:58That's what I want,
08:59to lower the price of rice.
09:01It's a loss, ma'am.
09:03We are the ones who are affected.
09:05We will sell rice.
09:07Even though they already have the money
09:10to buy Php 40 rice,
09:12they ask...
09:13It's better if they lower the price
09:16because like us who don't have a job,
09:19other people who want to buy rice
09:22that is cheap,
09:24they will be able to buy it.
09:25If there's Php 39, it's better.
09:27It's cheaper.
09:28It should be lower.
09:30Php 40 rice will also be sold
