Draft implementing guidelines on POGO ban, CEZA ordered
By Nidz Godino
“Please be informed that this Office has directed CEZA to coordinate with AMLC relative to crafting of implementing guidelines on ban of offshore Interactive Gaming operations and all other offshore gaming operations and services within Cagayan Special Economic Zone and Free Port,” Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin wrote in a letter released by Office of Sen. Risa Hontiveros Cagayan Economic Zone Authority (CEZA) has been ordered by Malacañang to draft guidelines together with Anti–Money Laundering Council (AMLC) to implement ban on offshore gaming hubs.
In line with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s executive order banning Philippine offshore gaming operators (POGO), Bersamin wrote to AMLC asking them to work with CEZA.
Hontiveros had previously questioned CEZA during final POGO hearing in Senate.
While CEZA has stated has no POGO, Hontiveros still said executive order from Marcos may have loopholes.
“Nagagalak ako na agad na tinugunan ng Office of the Executive Secretary ang panawagan ko sa Senate hearing na klaruhin ang gaps sa Executive Order 74 ng presidente, na tila nag-eexempt sa mga economic zones tulad ng CEZA sa POGO ban,” Hontiveros said.
Marcos verbally banned POGOS during his third State of the Nation address, instructing all necessary government agencies to wind down operations of POGOs until end of the year.
The president’s EO arrived in November, with one month left for legal POGOs to cease operations.

FMJ urges Pinoys liberate Philippines from shackles of society’s ills
By Nidz Godino
“Gat Andres may have been long gone, but his fight carries on,let us honor his memory by finding deeper meaning in his sacrifice and doing our part in liberating our country from shackles of hunger, corruption, criminality and other ills of society,” President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. called on Filipinos to emulate courage and selflessness of national hero Andres Bonifacio as they strive to help end problems plaguing the country.
In his message for commemoration of 161st birth anniversary of Bonifacio, Marcossaid leader of Philippine Revolution continues to inspire Filipinos to strive for greatness in their shared task of nation-building.
Marcos noted that Bonifacio, Supremo of the Katipunan, organized and inspired his fellow Filipinos to rise against tyranny and break chains of oppression. His humble beginnings did not deter him from realizing his dreams and goals for the country, with his courage, he lit the flames of the Philippine Revolution, which finally united our land and emboldened many to lay down their lives willingly for the cause of our motherland against the colonizers, the President stressed.
He urged Filipinos to remember legacy of sacrifice of Bonifacio and other heroes who resisted colonial rule.
“We owe them debt of gratitude for awakening our national consciousness, upholding our sense of identity and rousing our spirit of self-determination, with patriotism, discipline and love for one another as our guide, let us build a better Bagong Pilipinas where every Filipino lives in genuine peace, progress and harmony,” the Chief Executive said.
Born on Nov. 30, 1863 in Tondo, Manila, Bonifacio was one of the founders of Kataastaasan, Kagalanggalangang Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan or KKK, fought for independence from Spanish rule. He was executed by fellow revolutionaries who accused him of sedition in 1897.
As workers marked Bonifacio Day with protests calling for wage hikes and lower prices for commodities, Vice President Sara Duterte-Carpio stressed importance of his example in taking action against what ails country.
“Remembering bravery of Andres Bonifacio is opportunity for us to reflect on our situation and our future as a free country, important that our celebration of greatness of Andres Bonifacio opens our awareness to condition of our country such as poverty, hunger, unemployment and lack of basic services for so many Filipinos,” Duterte said in statement.
The Vice President said ensuring Bonifacio’s vision lives on amid trying times would inspire Filipinos to strive to be loyal and “true” citizens of the country.
“Let’s spread message of his heroism to each other and hopefully it will become fire to burn so that we can be stronger, braver and stand up. Bonifacio’s legacy is our freedom…let’s take care of it…let’s fight for it,” she added.
Speaker Martin Romualdez, meanwhile, urged government officials to emulate Bonifacio’s legacy of “integrity.”
“Today, as we honor courage and sacrifices of Gat Andres Bonifacio, Father of Philippine Revolution, we are reminded of vital role of integrity, unity and accountability in nation-building,” Romualdez said in his message.
Romualdez noted that Bonifacio stood against tyranny and division, championing ideals of freedom and justice.
“In these challenging times, when principles of democracy and good governance are put to the test, let us draw inspiration from Bonifacio’s bravery and steadfast commitment to the truth,” Romualdez said.
The Speaker said Bonifacio’s life should remind Filipinos genuine leadership demands not just strength, but respect for others as well and deep sense of responsibility to uphold greater good.
“The path toward progress is never without challenges, but like Bonifacio, we must face them with unwavering resolve and firm belief in collective power of Filipino people, let us reject fear, division, and discord, and instead work together in the spirit of bayanihan to build a nation grounded on peace, justice and prosperity for all,” he said.
He also urged Filipinos to honor Bonifacio’s memory by “safeguarding democracy and freedom he fought so valiantly to achieve.”
“As we commemorate Bonifacio’s legacy, may his patriotism inspire us to remain vigilant, principled and united as we navigate these turbulent times,” he said.
Romualdez said Bonifacio’s bravery led Filipino people of his generation in fighting oppression, showing his unwavering commitment to “freedom, justice and the welfare of the Filipino people.”
“Bonifacio stood against tyranny and division, championing ideals of freedom, justice and welfare of Filipino people above all else,” he said.
The Speaker also reflected on enduring relevance of Bonifacio’s principles, saying his example calls for leadership rooted in truth and responsibility even in today’s challenging times.
“His life reminds us that genuine leadership demands not just strength, but also respect for others and deep sense of responsibility to uphold greater good,” he said.
Like Bonifacio, every Filipino should face challenges with unwavering resolve and with belief in the country’s potential to move forward and progress.
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning.
John 1:14
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Family of the late Jocelyn “Jo” Lising-Abelgas appreciates every moments shared by friends and relatives in their bereavement
“Huwag kayong nalilinlang sa mga nangyayari …let’s stay focused,” President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in his message to officers and troops of Southern Luzon Command (SOLCOM) at Camp Guillermo Nakar in Lucena City, Quezon amid worsening rift with Dutertes reminded military to remain true to its mission of protecting Filipino people and not be distracted by current political noise.
This was his apparent response to former president Rodrigo Duterte’s calling on military to correct Marcos’ “fractured governance.”
“For me, when there’s lot of noise around, I always think what my job really is…is it my job to pick fight, or is it to debate on nonsensical matters…no, my work is to make Philippines better…in your case, you also have your mission…so, don’t ,if you are confused, just think, remember… what is my mission…your mission is to defend people and the Republic , people of the Republic of the Philippines and the state of the Republic of the Philippines ,let’s keep that mission clear in our mind”, Marcos said.
The President directed troops to use their resources for “territorial security aspect of new mission.”
“Keep up the good work…and we will get to that point where we can say that we can already transition fully, or at least majority of our resources can transition already to defense of our territory,” Marcos said.
During his visit, Marcos awarded medals to five soldiers namely, Army 1Lt. Billy Canacan (Gold Cross), 2Lt. Green Marc Augusto (Gold Cross), Maj. Bryann Oria (Silver Cross), 1Lt. Merjoerie Ballesteros (Silver Cross) and Air Force T/Sgt. Noli Lomeda (Bronze Cross).
With the President were Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro and Armed Forces of the Philippines chief Gen. Romeo Brawner Jr.
AFP earlier said there is no need for loyalty check within its ranks.
“What we are emphasizing here is AFP is non-partisan organization…as our chief of staff has already stated, our Armed Forces is united and professional,” according to AFP spokesperson Col. Francel Margareth Padilla.
“Our loyalty is to the flag and to the Constitution and we adhere to the chain of command,” she said.
In late-night online press conference, the former president sought military and police’s intervention to “protect the Constitution” amid what he described as “fractured” government. Duterte, however, stopped short of calling for coup.
The former leader described country as currently in state of “hemorrhage” under administration of Marcos.
Duterte said everything is now up to the military if they want to continue serving a President who he alleged is “addicted to illegal substances.”
“How does military protect Constitution…by protecting ‘drug addict’ President…if you want redress of grievance, there is no urgent remedy…it is only military who can correct it,” Duterte said.
Duterte’s tirades came in the wake of Congress’ move to conduct all-out investigation on his daughter, who earlier had claimed contracting hitman to kill the President, First Lady Liza Marcos and Speaker Martin Romualdez if supposed plot to kill her succeeds.
Duterte is also under investigation by International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity in implementation of his drug war during his presidency.

Angelica Panganiban updates her ‘bone death’
By Cynthia Montojo
“All good naman…as you can see, nakapupunta na ako sa mga events,” actress Angelica Panganiban shared her journey in dealing with Avascular Necrosis or so-called “bone death.”
Angelica shared her second hip surgery for Avascular Necrosis has been successful so far.
“Unlike before na hirap ako talaga, nasa house lang. ..I’m getting better and stronger,” she affirmed.
Although her second surgery was already as far back as last July, the star said she is still recovering from it.
“Actually, I’m still recovering right now…but as advised by doctor, I can go around na, kasi walking is advised talaga para faster ‘yung recovery to strengthen my legs.”
She did not know yet if she had to undergo another surgery.
“We’ll never know talaga kasi right side of my hip is hindi pa talaga s’ya okay, so hindi natin alam kung ano talaga ang future ng right side,” she said.
Despite uncertainties, she is happy since at least nowdays, she can already play and even carry her baby.
“’Yun ang isa sa I’m very thankful dahil kahit papa’no… nagpapakarga na s’ya sa’kin, naalala na n’ya na ay, pwede kay mama na magpa-karga.”
Because of her condition, Angelica still cannot run as she used to do before anytime she wants to de-stress.
“But of course, hindi pa rin ako nakakatakbo,” she said.
She, however, takes it a day at a time and does not lose hope that she would fully recover.

Neri Naig-Miranda to celebrate Christmas in jail-SEC
By Cynthia Montojo
“Siya ay naghikayat ng mga investments d’un sa Beyond Skin Care… yun ‘yung kumpanyang iniimbestigahan,” Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Director Filbert Catalino Flores III explained former actress Neri Naig-Miranda would likely spend Christmas behind bars, and not at home with husband Chito Miranda and their sons Miggy and Manuel, after her scheduled arraignment yesterday was moved to January 9.
Philippine National Police (PNP) Southern Police District (SPD) confirmed that the Parokya ni Edgar frontman’s wife is still detained in the Pasay City Jail female dormitory.
Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 111 staff said Neri’s arraignment for alleged Securities Regulation Code violations was moved to January 9 following motion to quash or to dismiss complaints.
Pasay RTC has since requested SEC and prosecution for comment on the motion.
In social media post Chito claimed certain “Chanda” is the alleged real culprit behind Neri’s incarceration.
“Wala siyang kinuhang pera sa ibang tao, lahat ng pera nila na kay Chanda, ang may-ari ng Dermacare,” Chito said.
SEC released in September 2023 said that Chanda Atienza, chief operating officer of Dermacare-Beyond Skin Care Solutions, allegedly offered “agreements” with potential “franchise partners,” with promise of returns amounting to 12.6% interest per quarter for five-year period, in addition to free services from the beauty clinic chain, “unauthorized investment solicitation without SEC registration.”
In the same advisory, SEC warned that even Dermacare’s endorsers, influencers, brokers, dealers, salesmen, agents and promoters may also be charged.
Neri MirandaHello friends and valued followers. I would like to take this opportunity to inform you all that I am no longer …
, informed her followers that she is no longer connected with Dermacare.
“I want to emphasize that any transactions or engagements made under my name by Dermacare are unauthorized and have been conducted without my consent…if you come across any instances where my name is being used in connection with Dermacare,.. I kindly request you to inform me promptly,” she added.
Neri is facing 14 counts of violation of Securities Regulation Code (Section 28 of Republic Act 8799), in addition to estafa, for allegedly endorsing Dermacare’s call for investors even if company is unauthorized to solicit public investments because company is not registered and operating without a license to sell stocks, SEC explained.
Former actress is also facing syndicated estafa,, according to Presidential Decree 1689, is “committed by syndicate consisting of five or more persons formed with the intention of carrying out unlawful or illegal act, transaction, enterprise or scheme.”
“The accused, who is listed as Rank #7 (Station Level) for November 2024, was apprehended after a warrant of arrest was served” by Pasay RTC on Sept. 18, 2024, and Oct. 16, 2024, PNP’s SPD said.
Neri invited her fans to join her in 15th PHILSME Business Expo in SMX Convention in Pasay City last November 23. SPD confirmed that the former actress was arrested that same day at the basement of mall’s convention center.
Bail was set at P126,000.00 for each of the 14 alleged securities violation counts, totaling to over P1.7 million; while “no stated bail” is set for estafa, SPD added in a Facebook post.
Chito, in his Facebook post, confirmed that Neri was arrested last week even if she has not reportedly received any notice or criminal complaint.
“Tapos last week, bigla na lang s’yang inaresto for the same case kahit hindi pa sya binigyan ng notice na may bagong criminal complaint pala laban sa kanya, and ‘di n’ya na-defend ‘yung sarili nya,” he said.
Yesterday, he thanked his uncle, lawyer and former Sen. Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan, for offering legal services to Neri.
According to Kiko, Neri is also victim of Estafa criminals.
“Ang product endorser ay isang talent at kung walang koneksyon o kinalaman sa ownership or management at operations nung kumpanya na involved sa iligal na operations ay hindi dapat managot sa nasabing iligal na gawain,” Pangilinan said in Instagram post.
“Nabiktima din si Neri ng mga estafador at ang dapat habulin dito ay ang may ari at nagpapatakbo ng kumpanya.”
Neri MirandaHello friends and valued followers. I would like to take this opportunity to inform you all that I am no longer …
