PBBM, balik-Pinas na

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

BALIK-PINAS na si Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr., araw ng Linggo matapos ang maikling byahe sa United Kingdom para sa koronasyon ni King Charles III at kanyang opisyal na pagbisita sa Estados Unidos kung saan nakipagpulong siya kay US President Joe Biden.

“It feels good to be back home!” ang sinabi ni Unang Ginang Liza Marcos, kasama sa byahe ni Pangulong Marcos, sa kanyang instagram post, araw ng Lunes, nagpapakita ng larawan ng kanyang asawa na may nakatatak na oras na 11:05 ng gabi, ng Mayo 7, 2023.

Dumating sa bansa ang Pangulo na walang isinagawang arrival honors.

Matapos ang ilang oras na pagbabalik sa bansa, binati naman ni Pangulong Marcos si King Charles III at Queen Camilla sa kanilang koronasyon nito lamang weekend sa London.

“It was as grand and magnificent a ceremony as could have been, full of symbolism and weighted by history. It was a great honor for me to represent the Philippines on such a historic occasion,” ayon sa Pangulo sa isang kalatas.

“A day before the Coronation of King Charles III, we were able to speak with His Majesty at the reception, where we sent him the congratulations of all Filipinos. He asked after his friend, my mother, former First Lady Imelda Marcos, and recounted fond memories of the time they shared together,” dagdag na wika ng Pangulo.

“Filipinos wish His Majesty King Charles III a long and happy reign. May his Coronation signify the start of a new chapter of peace, progress, and prosperity for the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth,” aniya pa rin.

Si Pangulong Marcos ay kabilang sa 2,200 bisita na inimbitahan sa koronasyon ni King Charles.

Samantala, nakatakda namang lumipad ang Pangulo patungong Indonesia sa Mayo 9 para dumalo sa annual summit ng Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Inaasahan naman na pag-uusapan sa regional meeting ang nagpapatuloy na humanitarian crisis sa Myanmar. (Daris Jose)

DR. GOMEZ: MEDICAL CANNABIS MALAPIT NG MAISABATAS

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

Bagamat araw ng pagawa ngayong araw May 1, 2023 at walang pasok ang mga nag-oopisina sa gobyerno at pribadong sector, tuloy pa rin ang nakagawian ng BAUERTEK Media Health Forum na ginanaganap tuwing lunes sa isang restaurant sa lungsod Quezon.

Ito ay pinangungunahan pa rin ni Dr. Richard Nixon Gomez bilang General Manager ng BAUERTEK, na ang adbokasiya ay maisabatas at maging legal ang paggamit ng halamang gamot na marijuana o cannabis sa bansa. Ito ay ipoproseso sa isang laboratoryo para gawing Medical Cannabis na kung saan ang laboratoryo ay nakatayo na at handang handa na, hinihintay na lamang na maisabatas ito at maging legal.

Ayon kay Dr. Gomez, ang medical cannabis ay matagal nang ginagamit bilang gamot sa mahabang panahon at milyon-milyong pasyente na ang gumagamit worldwide. “Bakit sa Pilipinas, ayaw pang ipagamit ang medical cannabis, samantalang maari nitong matulungan ang isang milyong Pilipinong may sakit?”

Dagdag pa ni Dr Gomez, “Ang medical cannabis ay malapit ng maisa-batas, dahil na rin umano sa dami na ng sumusuportang politiko, government official, at kilalang mga personalidad, dahil din umano sa alam na ng nakakarami sa ngayon, na meron na tayong laboratoryo na kung saan ipoproseso ang Marijuana para gawing Medical cannabis.”

Matatandaang, lumabas sa ilang pahayagan taong 2019 na mismong si dating House Speaker Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ay umaming gumamit ng medical cannabis, na isa umano sa nagbenepisyo nito. Nilalagyan umano ng pain patch na medicinal marijuana ang cervical spine na sumasakit kay Gng. Arroyo.

Subalit paglilinaw nito, na sa ibang bansa niya ito ginagawa kung saan pinapayagan ang paggamit ng cannabis para sa medical purposes at hindi rito sa Pilipinas dahil wala pang batas na sumusuporta rito. Naniniwala ang dating SGMA, na bukod sa kanya, ay marami pang may sakit ang matutulungan at mapapagaling ng medical cannabis. Kung kaya isa rin umano siya sa may-akda ng panukalang inihain sa Kamara na gawing legal ang medical cannabis sa bansa sa kanyang kapanahunan.

Naging panauhin sa ginanap na forum sina: Dr. MacGerald Cueto, Associate Professor, UERM, Memorial Center Inc., Doc-Atty. Leo Olarte, Former President Philippine Medical Association, Dr. Gem Mutia, Founder , Philippine Society of Cannabinoid Medicine.

Ipinaliwanag ni Dr. MacGerald Cueto ang tungkol sa Acupuncture bilang bihasang acupuncturist lalo na pagdating sa pain management. Ang Acupuncture ay ang pagtusok ng mga maninipis na karayom sa iba’t ibang bahagi ng katawan na base sa pag-aaral ng siyensiya. Ang pamamaraang ito ay nakatutulong laban sa chronic pain, headaches, migraine at iba pa. Nalulunasan din ang ang problema ng mga kalalakihan pagdating sa erectal dysfunction, ayon pa kay Dr. Cueto.

Sinabi naman ni Dr. Gem Mutia na dapat suportahan ng gobyerno ang pagsasabatas ng paggamit ng Medical cannabis, ang halamang gamot na marijuana. Huwag maging negatibo ang pananaw lalo na pagdating sa marijuana dahil ito umano ang magpapagaling sa milyong Pilipinong may sakit. Magbibigay din ito ng dagdag kita sa kaban ng bayan. Suportado naman ni Doc. Atty Olarte, ang pagsasabatas ng medical cannabis sa bansa.

Nagsilbing host sa nasabing BAUERTEK Media Health Forum sina: Edwin Eusebio at Rolly Lakay Gonzalo. (Raffy Rico)

Wish ni PBBM, koronasyon ni King Charles makapagdadala ng kapayapaan kasaganaan at progreso sa UK, Commonwealth

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

WISH ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. na ang koronasyon ng Kanyang Kamahalan King Charles III ay nangangahulugan ng kapayapaan at kasaganaan para sa United Kingdom at Commonwealth.

Si Pangulong Marcos ay kabilang sa mga heads of states na dumalo sa koronasyon ni King Charles III at Kanyang Kamahalan Queen Camilla sa Westminster Abbey sa nito lamang Mayo 6.

Winika pa ng Chief Executive na napag-usapan nila ang kanyang ina na si dating Unang GInang Imelda Marcos.

“He asked after his friend, my mother, former First Lady Imelda Marcos, and recounted fond memories of the time they shared together,” ayon sa Punong Ehekutibo.

Sa gitna ng koronasyon, binigyang diin ng Pangulo ang “thriving relationship” sa pagitan ng Pilipinas at UK.

“We underscore the thriving relationship between the Philippines and the United Kingdom, which has been promising in increasing trade, investment, and cultural exchanges for the Filipino people,” ayon sa Pangulo. (Daris Jose)

Electronic version ng driver’s license, nakatakdang ilunsad ng LTO

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

NAKATAKDANG maglunsad ang Land Transportation Office (LTO) ng electronic version ng driver’s license bilang bahagi ng patuloy na pagsisikap nito tungo sa digitalisasyon ng lahat ng kanilang mga serbisyo.

Ayon kay LTO chief JayArt Tugade, magsisilbi ang digital license bilang isang alternatibo sa physical driver’s license card sa pakikipagtulungan sa Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT).

Aniya, ang bentahe ng digital license ay maaaring ipresenta ito ng mga motorista sa mga law enforcement officers kapag sila ay nahuli katulad din aniya ito ng physical driver’s license.

Ang digital license ay bahagi ng kasunduan sa pagitan ng LTO at DICT noong Marso ngayong taon na nakatutok sa pag-enhance ng digitalisasyon ng sistema at mga proseso sa ilalim ng LTO.

Ayon kay Tugade, ang digital license ay isasama sa super app na kasalukuyang ginagawa ng DICT.

Layunin nito na mapalitan ang Official receipt (OR) habang kasalukuyang nakaimprinta sa papel ang temporary driver’s license.

SAM HEUGHAN WILL MAKE AUDIENCES FALL FOR HIM AS THE ROMANTIC LEAD IN “LOVE AGAIN”

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

“It feels to me like the classic romcoms that you just don’t see anymore,” says producer Esther Hornstein of Love Again, a new love story opening exclusively in SM Cinemas on May 10.

“Two heartbroken people in New York City – with different reasons for their heartbreak – find their way to each other, one knowingly, the other unknowingly. It has a lot of heart and very real characters.”

Watch the film’s trailer here: https://youtu.be/t-z4j5cxAcw

One of those characters is Rob Burns, a music journalist who falls in love with the unknown woman who has been sending romantic messages to his work cell phone number – without knowing that the number, which used to belong to her late fiance – is currently being used by another person.

Playing the romantic male lead is Sam Heughan, who rose to international fame thanks to his starring role in the popular drama Outlander. Priyanka Chopra Jonas stars opposite Heughan as Mira Ray. Celine Dion is also in the movie, playing herself and the subject of Rob’s writing assignment.

Watch the lyric video for the rom-com’s theme song here: https://youtu.be/ADsUJwJ6VWI

“He’s a Scotsman who’s been living in New York for so long that he’d call himself a New Yorker,” says Heughan of his character. “He’s a music journalist who’s still pretty depressed about being left at the altar a year earlier. Then Mira comes into his life and changes everything.”

For Heughan, preparing to play the lead in a romantic comedy wasn’t just getting ready for a role – it was opening up a whole world of film. “I started watching lots of romantic comedies, which I’d avoided over the years because I thought they weren’t for me. But as soon as I started to watch them, I fell in love with them,” he says. “They’re brilliant, they’re adult, they’re funny, they’re dark – it was a revelation to me. And I think this movie is an homage or nod to that tradition.”

Preparation also was a chance for the actor to walk in the shoes of a music snob who gets his comeuppance in the form of the Queen of Power Ballads. “It was a fun movie to prep for,” he says. “Jim sent me a playlist of very contemporary music – and it was pretty challenging music, because Rob is a bit of an academic. He’s a cynic, a critical music snob who falls for the music of Celine Dion. At first, he only hears these songs on the surface – he thinks they’re overly embellished, overly romantic. But it turns out there’s truth to them. These songs really move him when he opens himself up to them. That’s a really nice journey to go on with the character.”

“Sam is so thoughtful about everything,” says producer Hornstein. “Sam made Rob a complicated guy – not your average romantic comedy prince who’s there to save Mira.”

Love Again is distributed in the Philippines by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International. Connect with the hashtag #LoveAgainMovie

Stand-out sa ibang klaseng galawan: ZIA, little Marian Rivera talaga pala sa dance floor

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

KATULAD namin, personal din na nanood at hinabol sa sinehan ng Kapuso actress na si Yasmien Kurdi ang ‘Voltes V Legacy.’

Nitong Lunes, May 8 naman na ito nagsimulang mapanood sa GMA Telebabad.

Kasama ni Yasmien ang kanyang mag-ama. Sabi niya, “Finally! were able to watch #VoltesVLegacy with Pangga and Ayesha Zara. Anyway, after naming manood, nagpalakpakan yung mga tao sa sine then I heard from one of the movie goers that “there’s something to be proud of again ang Pilipinas”

Proud of our director! @direkmark iba direk! tama ka… dapat nagdala ako ng tissue and to all the cast, crew, staff and of course the production team congratulations in advance! Ang ganda! Excited to watch it on Philippine Tv.

Katulad ni Yasmien, excited din kami kung paano ito tatanggapin ng mga manonood at sana lahat ay maging proud bilang Pinoy sa nagawang ito ng GMA.

***

NAG-STAND-OUT talaga si Zia Dantes, ang panganay na anak nina Dingdong Dantes at Marian Rivera sa dance performance nito sa school.

Talagang siya ang sentro at ibang klase ang galawan. As in, little Marian Rivera talaga pala si Zia sa dance floor.

Napakaraming naaliw sa pinost na photos at video na ito ni Marian sa kanyang Instagram at Facebook accounts

Sabi ni Marian na isang proud Mama, “Ate Z’ OOTD for her school program. Another proud stage moment for me! Congratulations Zia and the rainbow girls.”

Si Dingdong naman, napa-comment at sinabi na, “Abztract! Haha!” Meaning, naalala nito ang kanyang dating dance group.

Iisa halos ang comment ng mga kapwa nila celebrities kay Zia bilang isang dancer, “mana sa inyong dalawa. Magaling sumayaw ay gumiling.”

MERON talagang mga artista na kahit sabihing hindi naman required katulad halimbawa sa South Korea na mag-enlist o maging bahagi ng military, voluntarily ay talagang nag-a-undergo ng training para maging bahagi ng Philippine Navy.

Ang pinaka-latest dito ay ang Kapamilya actor na si JC de Vera. Nag-post si JC ng mga pictures niya kuha sa kanyang graduation ceremony for Basic Citizen Military Course na ginanap sa Marines Training Camp.

Present din ang kanyang mag-ina na sina Rikkah at Lana de Vera.

Ayon sa post ni JC, pangarap daw niyang talaga ito.

“PO3 John Carlo de Vera PN (res) BCMC Class 03-2023.

“A dream come true. I’m honored and proud to be part of the Philippine Navy and PMA Baghawi 2008. It was physically and mentally challenging but overall it was a fun experience.

“I am ready to serve my country. Sending my Snappiest salute Navy! Hooyah! Marines Hooyah!”

Parang mag-bf-gf noon na bawal makita sa labas: CLAUDINE, forever grateful kay JUDY ANN at dream na magkasama sa pelikula

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

SA guesting ni Claudine Barretto sa “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” noong Biyernes, May 5, napag-usapan nila ni Boy Abunda ang pagkakaibigan nila ni Judy Ann Santos.

Bago ito, natanong muna ni King of Talk, na pangarap ng marami na magkasama sila sa isang pelikula o teleserye.

Sagot ng aktres, “Oh my God, that’s one of my bucket list.”

Kuwento pa ni Claudine, “You know, Judy Ann and I, people think we don’t get along, we never got along.

“But in truth is that even nu’ng debut niya, right after, I remember that was a Sunday and everything was closed, the after-party was in my condominium.

“So, ang dami naming pinagdaanan ni Judy Ann.”

Dagdag pa niya, “during that time, kumbaga, para kaming mag-boyfriend-girlfriend ni Judy Ann. Bawal kaming makita sa labas. kasi ayaw ni Tito Alfie (Lorenzo).

“Kasi dapat daw ala-Nora-Vilma. Parang ganyan.”

Pagbabalik-tanaw pa ni Clau na may magandang ginawa si Juday, noong lumipat siya sa GMA-7, na hinding-hindi niya malilimutan hanggang kamatayan.

“I would never forget what Judy Ann did to me, that’s why she is who she is. Judy Ann Santos is Judy Ann Santos.

“You know, at my lowest point, when I also transferred from Channel 2 to Channel 7, in one of her interviews, they said that she’s the Teleserye Queen. And she said ‘No. Claudine and I share this title.’

“I will never forget that moment ’til the day I die. And our dream is to be able to do a movie together.

“And I will be forever grateful for Judy Ann Santos.”

Pahabol pa ni Claudine, “and queen supports queens.”

Ang ganda rin ng kuwento niya tungkol sa isang eksena nila ng Star For All Seasons na si Vilma Santos sa pelikulang ‘Anak’, na nahirapan niyang gawin.

Pinag-usapan at naging iconic scene nga ‘yun sinasaktan niya sa movie si Ate Vi.

Pagbabahagi ni Claudine nang sinabi sa kanya na kailangang gawin ang eksena, “parang I can’t, I’m a Vilmanian, I can’t possibly hurt Ms. Vilma Santos.”

Kaya tumagal ito ng ilang oras para ma-convince siya, mula sa direktor na Rory Quintos, hanggang kina Malou Santos at Olive Lamasan.

Hanggang si Ate Vi na ang kumausap sa kanya na, “‘Anak, you can do it. Sige lang, we need this and you’re an actress.

“So, I was trying to motivate myself and I have to do this. But, it took so much, I don’t know how many hours talaga. And I think, next shooting day pa bago ko nagawa ang eksena.”

IDINEKLARA ng oil spill task force na nasa “acceptable standards” na para sa fishing activities ang municipal waters ng Clusters 4 at 5 sa bayan ng Oriental Mindoro na labis na tinamaan ng oil-spill.

Sinabi pa ng task force na ang katubigan ng Clusters 1, 2 at 3, binubuo ng bayan ng Naujan, Pola, Pinamalayan, Gloria ay Bansud, ay hindi pa rin rekumendado para sa fishing activities bunsod ng panganib ng kontaminasyon ng oil spill na hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin naaalis.

Idinagdag pa ng task force na mananatiling ipinatutupad ang precautionary measures kung saan ang antas ng kontaminsayon ay mayroong panganib para sa food safety mga isda at fisheries products.

Sa gitna ng kaganapan na ito, sinbai ng PCO na ang time-series monitoring ng lahat ng sites ay magpapatuloy ayon sa scheduled sampling plan ng BFAR.

Samantala, patuloy namang nagsasagawa ang Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) ng kanilang air at water sampling kabilang na ang hazardous waste monitoring at management ng lahat ng apektadong lokalidad.

Sinabi ng DENR na sa Region 4B, ang lahat ng lugar na matatagpuan sa hilaga ng ground zero o bayan ng Naujan ay mayroong mababang naitalang “oil at grease” kumpara sa katimugan.

Idinagdag pa ng DENR na “all monitored shorelines affected by the oil spill have generally improved and all monitored areas in the municipality of Pola are all within the water quality guidelines for oil and grease based on the last sampling result available.” (Daris Jose)

Mukhang naka-move on na sa ex-bf na si Joe Alwyn: TAYLOR SWIFT, balitang nakikipag-date na kay MATTY HEALY

Posted on: May 9th, 2023 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

NAKA-MOVE on na raw si Taylor Swift sa pakikipaghiwalay niya sa ex-boyfriend na si Joe Alwyn.

Balita kasing nakikipag-date na ito kay Matty Healy, ang frontman ng bandang The 1975. Una pala silang nag-date noong 2013 pero wala raw namuong serious na relasyon sa kanila.

Ayon sa The Sun: “She and Matty are madly in love. It’s super-early days, but it feels right… Taylor and Joe actually split up back in February, so there was absolutely no crossover. They first dated, very briefly, almost 10 years ago, but timing just didn’t work out.”

Lumitaw ang photo ni Taylor with Matty kasama si Nick Grimshaw sa Universal Music Brits Party in London in 2015. Back in January, naging surprise guest si Taylor sa first night of The 1975’s At Their Very Best tour.

“Both Matty and Taylor have been touring over the past few weeks, so it’s been a lot of FaceTiming and texting, but she cannot wait to see him again. They are incredibly supportive of their respective careers and that Matty plans to join her in Nashville this weekend to support her on tour.

“They are both massively proud and excited about this relationship and, unlike Taylor’s last one — which was very much kept out of the spotlight, deliberately — she wants to ‘own’ this romance, and not hide it away. Taylor just wants to live her life, and be happy. She’s told pals Matty is flying to Nashville over the weekend to support her on the next leg of her tour,” ayon pa sa The Sun.
