      • "content": "Senatorial aspirant and Makati City Mayor Abby Binay is pushing for amendments to the tax code that would exempt overtime pay and bonuses, such as the 13th month pay, from income tax, in a bid to ease the financial burden on Filipino workers and boost family welfare. In a statement, Binay vowed to pursue legislation in the Senate that would reclassify these forms of compensation as non-taxable income, arguing that current policies do not reflect the economic realities faced by many Filipinos. “Exempting minimum wage earners from income tax is not enough. Moreover, the current non-taxable income rates are no longer realistic given the present economic conditions in the country,” she said. Under the current \"Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law\" or Republic Act No. 10963, individuals earning up to P250,000 annually are exempt from income tax. The law also provides tax exemption for 13th-month pay and other bonuses up to P90,000. Any excess is included in the computation of taxable income. Binay argued that these provisions are no longer sufficient in addressing workers' needs amid high inflation and rising costs of living. “Workers deserve to enjoy their overtime pay and bonuses in full. It is but fair to fully compensate their hard work and extended hours of working which cut into their supposed rest period and family time,” she added. She emphasized that excluding overtime pay from taxable income would directly increase workers’ take-home pay, providing them with more disposable income for essentials such as food, utilities, and transportation. “If they receive their OT pay in full, they will have more disposable income to spend for the basic needs of their families like food, clothing, shelter, water, and electricity,” Binay said. She also pointed out that full exemption of bonuses would allow Filipino families to better enjoy the holiday season. “Mas magiging masaya ang Pasko para sa bawat pamilyang Pilipino kapag buong-buong natatanggap ang mga year-end bonus, ” she said. “Malamang ay makakabayad din sila kahit papaano sa mga utang, at magiging mas masaya ang pagsalubong nila sa Bagong Taon.” (“Christmas will be happier for every Filipino family if they receive their year-end bonuses in full.” “They might even be able to pay off some of their debts, and they’ll welcome the New Year with greater joy.”) Binay noted that the measure could even benefit the government by driving consumer spending and boosting overall economic activity. “Mababawi rin ang nabawasang kita ng gobyerno mula sa buwis dahil mas lalakas ang purchasing power ng mga mamamayan,” she said. (“The government’s lost tax revenue can be recovered because people’s purchasing power will increase.”) To supplement any lost revenue, Binay proposed further investment in tourism and other sectors with untapped potential. “We have so many resources yet to be fully tapped for revenue generation. Let us focus on them so that over 50 million Filipino workers, including minimum wage earners and ordinary employees, will not have to bear onerous taxes and be able to provide a decent life for their families,” she added.",

      • "content": "President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has urged the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Council to review the implementation of the CPD law, as well as related programs, to help professionals ease their burden in renewing their licenses. “My call to the PRC and the Continuing Professional Development Council is, let's revisit our guidelines. Let's see if the training we're doing is appropriate,” he said in his remarks during the 123rd Labor Day celebrations in Pasay City. \"It's already difficult to make a living, are we going to make it even harder for those who are looking for a living?\" Marcos said. As part of recognizing workers on Labor Day, Marcos said reviewing the CPD Act of 2016, or Republic Act No. 10912, is one of many ways the government can honor and express gratitude to Filipino professionals. CPD is a requirement for all licensed and registered professionals before they can renew their Professional Identification Cards issued by the PRC. The law aims to continuously improve the competence of Filipino professionals through training, seminars, and workshops to renew their licenses. While Marcos agrees that professionals need additional knowledge to practice in their respective industries, he lamented that the requirements of CPD should not be burdensome to workers who dole out additional expenses to receive training. “I agree that you need to increase your knowledge to keep up with the needs of the industry. Not only in the Philippines, but also around the world. But, I am not unaware of the hardships you are going through to renew your IDs. Many of you are complaining about the difficulty and expense of getting the training required for your license renewal,” he said. He noted that the guidelines and implementation of the law need to be revisited to balance professional development with accessibility and fairness. Since lapsing into law in 2016, the CPD law and its implementation have been criticized as costly and inaccessible, particularly to professionals who are working in remote areas or have low-paying jobs.",

It found that this chronic gut condition follows a four-stage epidemiological evolution across different regions of the world. Analysing data from more than 500 epidemiological studies across 80 regions in the past century, the team generated a machine-learning model for classification of stages which enables health-care systems to prepare for the growing burden on healthcare arising from the prevalence of IBD.

They observed differences in IBD incidence and prevalence across various geographical areas over the past century suggest that epidemiological patterns shift through time. To further explore the trends and characterise the epidemiology of IBD independent of geography and time, researchers developed a machine-learning model that classifies regions by epidemiologic stage, maps spatiotemporal transitions across stages and models a theoretical prevalence stage for the next two decades. They also demonstrated a stage where IBD prevalence reaches equilibrium. (Please refer to Table 1 for details.) Professor Gilaad Kaplan, Professor of Medicine at the Cumming School of Medicine, the University of Calgary, said: \"Our analysis, drawing on a century's worth of historical epidemiologic data, enables health authorities to tailor interventions – whether clinical, policy driven or preventive.\" Incidence rapidly rising in China and Malaysia while Japan and South Korea seeing an acceleration in prevalence Study data showed epidemiological stages vary among regions in Asia. Japan and South Korea, which underwent rapid industrialisation in the latter half of the 20th century, have reported prevalence exceeding 0.1%, placing them on the brink of transitioning towards stage 3. In contrast, nations like China and Malaysia, which industrialised later, entered stage 2 more recently. Dr Joyce Mak, Honorary Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine and Therapeutics at CU Medicine, said: \"Today, we stand at a critical juncture as we address the alarming rise in IBD in newly industrialised countries such as China and Malaysia.

Pyongyang recently unveiled a 5,000-ton destroyer-class vessel named Choe Hyon that some analysts said could be equipped with short-range tactical nuclear missiles.

The two countries also announced this week that they had started building the first road bridge linking the two neighbors. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the first day of a two-day weapons test of the vessel this week, according to Pyongyang’s official Korean Central News Agency, during which he ordered officials to work on “accelerating the nuclear armament of the navy”. North Korea has said the destroyer, which it claimed is equipped with the “most powerful weapons”, would “enter into operation early next year”. READ: 600 N.

Lee said its deployment is likely to require more time. “In the case of warships it takes several years to build and even after completion it takes additional time for them to become operational,” the JCS spokesperson said.

Together with Filipino actresses Maria Isabel Lopez and Charlie Dizon, Franky stars in \"Diamonds in the Sand,\" one of two Filipino films competing in the prestigious cinema event. Written and directed by Janus Victoria, a former GMA Public Affairs i-Witness director, \"Diamonds in the Sand\" follows Yoji (Franky), a divorced and demoted Japanese salaryman who leaves it all behind and heads to Manila, believing nobody is lonely in the Philippines. This is Victoria's film debut, allowing the movie to be among the nominees in the jury-assigned White Mulberry Award for Best Debut Film. \"Diamonds in the Sand\" is also nominated for Best Screenplay, apart from being in the main competition alongside 40 other films including another Filipino film \"Sunshine,\" directed by Antonette Jadaone and starring Maris Racal. Following its world premiere at TokyoFilMex last year, \"Diamonds in the Sand\" had its international premiere at the Italian festival last April 27. \"When I got to the venue, the 1,200-seater Teatro Nuovo, I was overwhelmed to see it full. Hearing the audience react while the film played was very gratifying. Our film received a lot of love in the end,\" Victoria told GMA News Online in quick interview. \"The core of this film festival is the audience. Fans of Asian cinema across Europe come here yearly. That alone is amazing,\" she adds. Victoria lost her voice at the film screening of \"Diamonds in the Sand\" and quickly became known at the festival as \"the filmmaker with no voice.\" \"I only managed to say 'grazie mille' (thank you) when my lead actor and I were called to present the film on the stage,\" she said, but no matter. \"What followed was really heartwarming. Every day, the festival staff and fellow filmmakers I encountered offered me help and medicine. I have a variety of lozenges now.\" The awarding ceremony will take place on May 2. While Victoria says she and her producers Project 8 Films are still working on bringing \"Diamonds in the Sand\" to Philippine theaters,\" she expresses hope it happens this year. — Jade Veronique Yap/LA, GMA Integrated News",

In a radio interview, Comelec chairperson George Erwin Garcia urged the DA to temporarily halt the government’s reselling of P20 per kilo of rice until the end of the May 12 polls in a bid to prevent the program from being politicized or being used for campaigning. “Ang sabi nga natin, pagkatapos ng araw na ito, medyo tigil muna bukas. Pupwede naman maituloy after ng May 12, kahit sa May 13 na lang uli sila magsimula ng murang bigas,” Garcia told Super Radyo dzBB. (We are urging them to pause the rollout until May 13.) The DA started the rollout the pilot test of the P20-per-kilo rice initiative in Cebu earlier in the day. The ayuda ban of the poll body starts May 2 up to May 12, Election Day. “Hindi po para ang Comelec maging hadlang sa tulong sa ating mga kababayan. Kaya lang ang sabi ng batas, hindi dapat nagagamit ang state resources para sa pamumulitika ng iba o para i-promote ang kandidatura ng iba,” Garcia said. (We do not want to interfere with the social services but the law prohibits the politicizing of state resources.) “Dapat ang ganito, nase-set aside ang politika para sa isang magandang programa,” he added. (In cases like this, politics should be set aside for good programs.) The Comelec earlier exempted the DA P20 per kilo Rice Project from the 45-day election spending ban ahead of the May 12 polls. In granting their request, the Comelec included additional guidelines for the exclusion, including the securing by local government units (LGUs) of separate certificates of exemption if they resell rice products at a lower price. Other directives include that the distribution and sale of subsidized rice be conducted in public places and that media, civil society, and interest groups be allowed unrestricted access in the venue of the implementation Under the Omnibus Election Code, violations of the prohibitions constitute election offenses, punishable by imprisonment of not less than one year, but not more than six years, among other penalties provided for by law. — RSJ, GMA Integrated News For more Eleksyon 2025 related content and updates, visit GMA News Online's Eleksyon 2025 microsite .",

      • "content": "Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia (File photo by DALE ISRAEL / Inquirer Visayas) MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Thursday said suspended Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia deserves to be treated “fairly and with the respect owed to her office.” This view comes as proceedings pertaining to her suspension are being held. Citing the national and local elections happening on May 12, Marcos said it is highly important for the government to uphold the rule of law and observe due process. READ: Cebu Gov. Gwen Garcia faces 6-month suspension “Any action that affects the mandate of a duly elected official must go through the proper channels and in accordance with the Constitution and the Omnibus Election Code,” Marcos said. “Governor Garcia has served Cebu with strength and consistency,” the president recalled. “Until all legal questions surrounding this suspension are resolved, she deserves to be treated fairly and with the respect owed to her office,” he emphasized. He also stressed that politics should not get in the way of public service. “We must always be guided by the law, by prudence, and by what is best for the Filipino people,” Marcos further said. The Office of the Ombudsman on Tuesday ordered a six-month preventive suspension against reelectionist Garcia to pave the way for an investigation into the permit she granted to a construction firm that had no environmental clearance. She is facing a complaint for issuing a special permit to Shalom Construction Inc. in May 2024 allegedly without the mandatory clearances from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

File photo MANILA, Philippines — The plan of Aboitiz Power Corp. to issue up to P30 billion worth of retail bonds has received a strong credit rating from local debt watchdog Philippine Rating Services Corp. (PhilRatings). PhilRatings gave it a rating of PRS Aaa with a stable outlook. It is the initial tranche of the energy firm’s P100-billion fixed-rate retail bond program . A triple-A credit rating, the highest score PhilRating could assign to a firm, shows that AboitizPower has “extremely strong capacity” to meet its financial commitments. Meanwhile, a stable outlook means that AboitizPower will likely keep its credit score in the next 12 months. The ratings, Aboitiz said in a disclosure, were given based on its diversified portfolio with good growth prospects. Also considered were an experienced management team, healthy liquidity and capital structure. The group earlier bared that the first tranche would include the issuance of P20 billion worth of retail bonds by the second quarter this year. If it gets robust traction from investors, AboitizPower may exercise an oversubscription option of up to P10 billion. The bonds would be listed on the Philippine Dealing and Exchange Corp. Proceeds from this fundraising activity would go to refinance corporate debts, it said. BDO Capital & Investment Corp., First Metro Investment Corp. and Union Bank of the Philippines will serve as joint issue managers. BDO Unibank Inc. will act as the trustee. The joint issue managers will also serve as joint lead underwriters and joint bookrunners. They will do so along with China Bank Capital, Land Bank of the Philippines, PNB Capital and Investment and Security Bank Capital Investment.

The firm said net income in the January to March period declined to P4.6 billion from P7.9 billion.This was blamed on “the full impact of depreciation and interest expenses for GNPower Dinginin Ltd.

      • "content": "window.rapplerAds.displayAd( \"middle-1\" );window.rapplerAds.displayAd( \"mobile-middle-1\" );BATANGAS CITY, Philippines – Just days after her reinstatement as mayor of Lobo town in Batangas, Lota Manalo received another suspension order from the Office of the Ombudsman. Ombudsman Samuel Martires has ordered the preventive suspension of Manalo for six months without pay for grave misconduct and conduct prejudicial to the interest of the service. The case stemmed from a complaint filed by Victor Ramos against Manalo, Municipal Accountant Ethel DC Magnaye, Municipal Treasurer Leandro Canuel. On April 24, Manalo returned to office after the Court of Appeals reversed an earlier decision of the Ombudsman to dismiss her for grave misconduct, gross neglect of duty, and violation of the Ease of Doing Business Act.In a press conference on Wednesday, April 30, Manalo said she was still the mayor of Lobo amid photos circulating online showing Vice Mayor Geronimo Alfiler taking his oath before Barangay Captain Mafriel Dimaano as Lobo mayor.“Kahapon ako’y nagtrabaho, pumasok bilang mayor, nagpa meeting, pumunta sa RCA...bumisita rin ako sa patay. Biglang nagkaroon na ng panunumpa, pag assume ng office. Nakakalungkot po na dali dali, tinake over na agad. Ganoon po ba? Hindi ba dapat tingnan ang basehan at kung puwede itong iimplement?” Manalo said.(I went to work as mayor yesterday, conducted a meeting, went to the RCA...went to a wake. All of a sudden, an oath-taking took place to assume [my] office. It’s disappointing that the take over was done in haste. Should it be that way? They should have verified the basis, if this can be implemented.)According to her lawyer, Julius Henry Balteza, the suspension order cannot be implemented during the election period.Under Section 261 (x) of the Omnibus Election Code on the suspension of elective provincial, city, municipal or barangay officers reads: “The provisions of law to the contrary notwithstanding during the election period, any public official who suspends, without prior approval of the Commission, any elective provincial, city, municipal or barangay officer, unless said suspension will be for purposes of applying the ‘Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act’ in relation to the suspension and removal of elective officials; in which case the provisions of this section shall be inapplicable.”“We have to follow the procedure laid down by law. Kapag meron ng DILG order saka tayo reresponde. Wala pang DILG at Comelec order,” Balteza said. (We have to follow the procedure laid down by the law. If there is a DILG order, then we will respond. There’s no DILG or Comelec order yet.) As of posting time on Thursday, May 1, Commission on Elections (Comelec) Batangas Election Supervisor Jonalyn Sabellano said they have not received any document in relation to the Ombudsman’s suspension order. – Rappler.com",

      • "content": "Queen of Creative Collaborations Heart Evangelista shared her thoughts on her fellow celebrities who are keeping their cosmetic enhancements private. Cosmetic enhancement sometimes referred to as plastic surgery depending on the degree of the procedure, has become a common thing in the entertainment industry. Not only celebrities are doing this. Even some people from different fields have started enhancing their physical appearances. Being a celebrity requires one to always look good. Many celebrities have openly talked about their enhancements like Alex Gonzaga , Arci Munoz , and Angeline Quinto . However, some celebrities are not openly sharing what they have done to their faces and body. In a recent interview, based on the article in PEP, Heart Evangelista opened up that she did botox and lip filler before which she will no longer do. The Kapuso actress said, “I do my Botox, I did lip fillers a long time ago pero humupa na, itigil na natin. And then, I do, of course, my machines. Of course, Ulthera is my number one.” She also said that she has skin treatments and is trying to maintain her jawline and her neck. When it comes to celebrities who are not openly talking about their cosmetic enhancements, Heart said that she understands this. “Well, I understand because I always get, like, you know, people say I got my eyes done, I got my nose done, but I really didn’t,” the Kapuso star said. She added that revealing the procedures one went through is a personal choice. Heart said that she is open to saying to the public that if ever she will undergo cosmetic surgery in the future, she will share about this. “ If I did, I would just say it because, you know, para matutunan nila kung saan sila pupunta. Share the blessings, di ba? ” she said.",

REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration Change is the only constant, and in the ever-evolving world of social media, Instagram is once again pushing the envelope. This time, the platform is introducing a fresh and more collaborative way for users to interact with Reels through its new feature called Blend. In today’s digital landscape , sharing funny, controversial or standout Reels with friends has become a daily ritual. Recognizing this, Instagram has launched Blend, which is a shared feed experience that allows friends – or entire group chats – to enjoy a personalized stream of recommended Reels together. Subscribe to our daily newsletter By providing an email address. I agree to the Terms of Use and acknowledge that I have read the Privacy Policy . With Blend, Instagram aims to streamline the way users engage with one another around Reels. Instead of individually forwarding videos back and forth, Blend curates a combined feed that reflects the collective tastes of the group. According to Instagram’s description, users w ill “see who each Reel is suggested for based on each person’s activity on Instagram, including the Reels they watch and interact with.” Instead of individually forwarding Reels back and forth, a behavior that has quickly become one of the app’s most common interactions, Blend makes the experience easier in one collective scroll. What makes Blend even more dynamic is its ability to evolve. The shared feed continually updates based on what the Reels participants engage with or send to each other in the chat. This ensures that the Blend stays fresh and accurately reflects the group’s shifting interests over time. You may also like: Instagram rolls out new DM features: Message translation and more Within any DM conversation on Instagram, users can tap the Blend icon at the top of the chat and invite others to join.

      • "content": "A 40-YEAR-OLD woman was brought to a hospital after being shot multiple times by three unidentified men around 3:40 a.m. Thursday, May 1, 2025, along Tres de Abril Street in Barangay San Nicolas Proper, Cebu City. The victim was identified as Jade Aparre Bacalso, 40, a resident of Barangay Suba, Cebu City. According to the investigation by the Cebu City Police Office, the victim was coming from the Taboan Public Market and riding her e-bike, based on witness statements. Prior to the incident, she reportedly had an argument with one of the men. Moments later, gunshots were heard, and the victim was seen collapsing on the road with gunshot wounds to her body. She was quickly brought to the hospital by ambulance after it was confirmed she was still alive, although in critical condition due to her injuries. Police Lieutenant Colonel Maria Theresa Macatangay, deputy city director for operations of the Cebu City Police Office, said they are currently reviewing closed circuit television (CCTV) footage from the area. Two possible motives are being investigated: one involving a personal grudge, as she was seen arguing with the men, and the other possibly related to illegal drugs. Macatangay said they received information that the victim was allegedly involved in illegal drugs, prompting them to deepen their investigation. “Ang atong mga police investigators naay anggulo gitan-aw nga naa ni kalalis or naa ni naka away nga mao nga victim. Naa pud tay anggulo nga gitan-aw na accordingly, based pud sa information nga nakalap sa komunidad pud ni nga naa pud daw ni gikalambigitan sa illegal drugs,” said Macatangay. (Our police investigators are looking into an angle involving a personal conflict, possibly someone the victim had a falling out with. We're also exploring another angle based on information from the community that she may have been involved in illegal drugs.) The police have coordinated with the victim’s family and witnesses at the scene, especially since the victim was able to identify who shot her before losing consciousness. (AYB)",

      • "content": "SARA DUTERTE – The Vice President confirmed her attendance to the DOJ preliminary probe on her “kill” remark against Pres. Bongbong Marcos. After finalizing the legal team of former Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte in The Hague for his trial before the International Criminal Court (ICC), Vice Pres. Duterte returned to the Philippines . There is a looming impeachment trial against the Vice President. Last February 5, the House of Representatives impeached Vice Pres. Duterte. More than 2/3 of the lawmakers in the lower chamber signed the impeachment of the Vice President. Presidential son and Ilocos Norte Congressman Sandro Marcos is one of those who signed the impeachment raps of Duterte . The relationship between Vice Pres. Duterte and Pres. Marcos has turned sour. Despite it, the President previously expressed a disagreement on having the Vice President impeached. Duterte’s camp believes that Marcos could be behind it. Previously, amid the heated tension between the two (2) government officials who were once a solid team in the 2022 Elections, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte claimed that she supposedly ordered someone for the killing of Pres. Bongbong Marcos, First Lady Liza Marcos, and House Speaker Martin Romualdez in case an alleged plot against her succeeds. The remarks of Vice Pres. Duterte hooked not only the attention of the ordinary Filipinos but as well as the National Bureau of Investigation. However, Vice Pres. Duterte did not appear before the NBI despite the subpoena . The investigation bureau filed a case against the Vice President. Recently, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte revealed that she received summons from the Office of the Prosecutor over the case filed against her by the NBI. Prosecutor General Richard Fadullon confirmed the claim of the Vice President. Based on a report on GMA News, she expressed that she will appear at the Department of Justice. “Nagkausap na kami ng aking abogado with regard to sa counter-affidavit, tinatapos na lang namin. Mag-appear ako dahil kailangan ko mag-oath,” she said. Based on the report , Fadullon expressed that the schedule for the preliminary investigation on the complaint is set on May 9 and May 16. With regards to her impeachment trial, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte said her lawyers are confident to win the impeachment trial .",

      • "content": "M2M has been in the process of re-recording their music, and in turn, rediscovering their past selves and their friendship. The Norwegian pop duo Marit Larsen and Marion Raven just released 2025 versions of \" Don't Say You Love Me \" and \"Mirror Mirror\" in April. And in the process, Marit told GMA News Online, \"it's kind of like going back to the past and giving yourself a hug and rediscovering our songwriters' brains.\" The songs were written from when they were 14 to 16 years old, and catapulted them into popstars. \"The songs are so good,\" Marit added. \"I mean, they've really... they've taken on a life of their own since we stopped being a band.\" \"But still, these songs, they are so good, and it's so fun to pick them apart, put them back together, and update the sound,\" Marit said. \"So it's a little bit more of what M2M sounds like in 2025 and it's a different version.\" The EP with the reimagined hits is also different from what the duo performs live at concerts. \"So people are actually getting two reimagined M2Ms this year,\" Marit said. \"It's become the celebration that we were hoping for.\" More than that, M2M rekindled their friendship after making it big and then breaking up as a band in 2002. According to an Instagram post, Marion and Marit bumped into each other by coincidence at a coffee shop in Oslo, Norway in April 2024, and it was kind of like having a red string attached to them all these years. \"Marion had left her apartment early in the morning to deal with a flat tire, Marit was running late for a meeting, and there we were, alone, just the two of us in line, as if the universe was playing us a trick,\" the duo wrote on Instagram. Two days later, they spent time together after 23 years and started talking about music and touring again. Marion told GMA News Online that it felt like their friendship had taken a pause, and then they hit play again. \"Even though we haven't talked for over 20 years, I feel like I know you. We know each other so well, and you know we know each other's, you know, positive [qualities] and weaknesses and everything,\" she said. Marion added that their tour so far has been so great because they are there to support each other. For Marit, \"It's kind of like renewing the vows in a marriage.\" \"Every morning, I wake up and I really look forward to seeing the day's adventures,\" Marit said. \"It feels like we're really compensating after so much time apart. Now we see each other every day, so we're getting to fill in all the blanks. And it's really, it's so much joy and we're looking forward to every day on this tour.\" Marion told her, \"That's nice to hear because I am actually pretty annoying.\" M2M teased their comeback by playing \" The Day You Went Away \" back in September 2024. They have a two-night concert on May 1 and 2 at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City as part of their The Better Endings Tour . They will then head to Davao's SMX Convention Center on May 3, and then Cebu's Waterfront Hotel on May 4 . Ahead of their concert, M2M thanked Filipino fans for keeping their music alive and that performing here is a dream come true.

      • "description": "SEOUL — Former South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol was indicted Thursday for abuse of power over his martial law declaration, prosecutors said, adding to the impeached ex-leader's legal jeopardy.The new indictment without detention comes as Yoon stands trial for orchestrating an insurrection with his December 3 martial law attempt, which sought to suspend civilian rule in democratic South Korea.Armed soldiers were deployed to parliament under the decree, but the order lasted only around six hours as it was swiftly voted down by opposition MPs, who scaled fences to enter the building. They later impeached Yoon over the martial law declaration.Yoon, 64, was stripped of all power and privileges in April by the Constitutional Court, which upheld the impeachment motion. He was soon forced to move out of the presidential residence.Prosecutors first indicted Yoon in January — when he was still president — as \"the ringleader of an insurrection\", a charge not covered by presidential immunity.\"We have since proceeded with the (insurrection) trial while conducting supplementary investigations into the abuse of power allegation, leading to this additional indictment,\" prosecutors said in a statement on Thursday.Yoon was arrested in mid-January after a days-long standoff with authorities over the insurrection charge, but was released in March on procedural grounds.The fresh charge comes a day after investigators raided Yoon's private residence in Seoul as part of a probe into bribery allegations involving his wife Kim Keon Hee and a shaman accused of receiving lavish gifts on behalf of the former first lady.South Korea's former president Yoon Suk Yeol attends his criminal trial on insurrection charges at a courtroom of the Seoul Central District Court in Seoul on April 21, 2025. AFP PHOTOLegal woesLegal troubles are mounting for Yoon and his wife Kim in cases unrelated to his martial law attempt.Prosecutors are investigating allegations that a shaman, Jeon Seong-bae, received a diamond necklace, a luxury handbag, and ginseng — a popular health tonic that can cost thousands — from a senior official of the Unification Church and passed them on to Kim.The Seoul High Prosecutors' Office has also reopened an investigation into Kim's alleged involvement in stock manipulation in a case previously dropped against her when Yoon was in power.The former president is additionally facing allegations that he unlawfully meddled in his party's nomination process for parliamentary candidates as president-elect in 2022.Yoon has denied any wrongdoing in the cases.If convicted of the insurrection charge, Yoon could be sentenced to life in prison or to death -- although South Korea has had an unofficial moratorium on executions since 1997.Yoon was the second South Korean president to be removed from office, and the third to be impeached by parliament.With him out of office, South Korea is set to hold a snap election on June 3.",

      • "content": "Senate Majority Leader Francis Tolentino presents a copy of a check reportedly issued by the Chinese embassy to InfinitUs Marketing, purportedly to discredit the Philippine government, during a recent Senate hearing. — File photo MANILA, Philippines — Makati-based firm InfinitUs Marketing Solutions Inc., allegedly working with the Chinese embassy in the Philippines to discredit the Philippine government, and purported anti-China Filipino personalities have been invited to a Senate inquiry slated for next week. Senate Majority Leader Francis Tolentino, who is leading a probe on foreign espionage and interference, said the hearing is scheduled for May 5. “Yes, invitations have been sent yesterday,” said Tolentino on Thursday when he was asked about the matter. “Our end point here is to really strengthen our democratic system. We cannot make this bulletproof, but to make democracy stronger in our country,” he added. Tolentino said his committee will allow InfinitUs to either refute or air its side regarding the allegedly questionable deal it signed with the Chinese embassy in 2023 to provide, among others, keyboard warriors to push pro-Beijing narratives on social media amid the West Philippine Sea dispute. Tolentino, meanwhile, pointed out that troll farm operators and keyboard warriors allegedly hired by the Makati-based firm cannot invoke “freedom of expression,” since this right is attached only to humans and not to fake accounts that they create posing as real persons. Earlier, National Security Council Assistant Director General Jonathan Malaya dropped a bombshell during the Senate’s special panel on maritime and admiralty zones’ hearing, saying that China is dipping its toes in the Philippines’ midterm polls. “There are indications that information operations are being conducted or that Chinese state-sponsored in the Philippines are actually interfering in the forthcoming elections,” said Malaya during the hearing. Tolentino, who was presiding over the hearing as panel head chair, asked if China has ongoing operations to support candidates that they want to win and control candidates whom they do not prefer. To which Malaya answered in the affirmative. China, for its part, brushed off the reports, saying that it has no interest in interfering with Philippine elections.

      • "content": "PRESIDENT Ferdinand \"Bongbong\" Marcos Jr. on Thursday, May 1, 2025, addressed the preventive suspension issued against Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia, stressing the importance of upholding the rule of law and ensuring that due process is followed. In a statement, the President called attention to the timing of the suspension, which comes just ahead of the upcoming elections. \"Let me be clear: in a time like this -- so close to the elections -- it is vital that we uphold the rule of law and observe due process. Any action that affects the mandate of a duly elected official must go through the proper channels and in accordance with the Constitution and the Omnibus Election Code,\" Marcos said. He expressed the need for a fair and just process in resolving the legal questions surrounding Garcia's suspension. \"Governor Garcia has served Cebu with strength and consistency. Until all legal questions surrounding this suspension are resolved, she deserves to be treated fairly and with the respect owed to her office,\" Marcos said. The President urged that politics should not interfere with public service and reminded that decisions should always be \"guided by the law, prudence, and by what is best for the Filipino people.\" Garcia has been placed under a six-month preventive suspension by the Ombudsman for issuing a special permit for desilting activities in a protected area during the El Niño crisis in 2024. However, the governor intends to challenge the order, arguing it violates the Omnibus Election Code, as no prior approval from the Commission on Elections (Comelec) was obtained, and she was not given due process. The suspension stems from allegations of grave abuse of authority and other misconduct related to the issuance of the permit without proper environmental clearance. Garcia defended her actions as necessary to address a severe water shortage caused by El Niño, and she believes the complaint is politically motivated. The Comelec earlier clarified that suspensions of elective officials during the 45-day campaign period before an election require approval from the agency, unless the suspension is related to the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

      • "content": "A scene from 'Mission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning' (Paramount Pictures and Skydance via AP)Superman already has a lot on his broad shoulders. It seems unfair to add the fate of Hollywood to his worries.But that’s the kind of pressure that comes with being one of the biggest stars in the comic book universe, who is getting a grand reintroduction at a tumultuous time. Thankfully he’s not doing it alone — Marvel Studios is also returning to theaters in a big way with two movies this summer, “Thunderbolts” and “The Fantastic Four: First Steps.”Five years after the COVID-19 pandemic brought movie business to a halt, and two years after the strikes, the industry has yet to fully recover. Critics may have complained of superhero fatigue, but after several summers of depleted offerings, it’s clear that they’re a vital part of the mix — especially when they’re good.The $4 billion summer of “Barbenheimer” may be most remembered for those two movies, but it didn’t get to that number without the “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Spider-Man ” movies, the second- and third-highest grossing of the season.From left: Nicholas Hault, David Corenswet, and director James Gunn on the set of 'Superman' (AP)Summer movie mathSummer begins early in Hollywood, on the first weekend in May. Kids might still be in school, and pools might still be closed, but that kickoff can make or break that pivotal 123-day corridor that has historically accounted for around 40 percent of the annual box office. Last year was the first in many that didn’t launch with a Marvel movie and it showed — the business limped along for weeks until Disney came to the rescue with “Inside Out 2” and “Deadpool & Wolverine.”This year, the powerful studio is back in that familiar spot with “Thunderbolts,” which brings together misfits and antiheroes like Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh), Red Guardian (David Harbour) and Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan).“It’s a fun twist on what a movie like this could be,” said director Jake Schreier. “There are some places we’re gonna go that are different from what you would normally expect.”He added: “It’s trying to be a movie about something and the moment we’re in — not in a political sense, but just where everybody’s at and what everyone’s been going through.”The Memorial Day weekend could also be a behemoth a few weeks later with the live action “Lilo & Stitch” and “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning” storming theaters. With a new “Jurassic World,” a live-action “How to Train Your Dragon” and a Formula One movie also on the schedule through June and July, the summer 2025 season has the potential to be the biggest in the post-COVID era.Before the pandemic, all but one summer since 2007 broke the $4 billion mark. Since 2020, only one has: 2023, led by “Barbie.”A scene from 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps (20th Century Studios/Marvel Studios via AP)Saving Superman (and the DC Universe)After three “Guardians” movies, James Gunn knows enough to know that he doesn’t have much control over whether people buy tickets for his movies. His job is to make something good, entertaining and “worthy” of the audience.But that’s also possibly underplaying the pressure of taking on Superman and overseeing a unified DC universe that kicks off with “Superman” on July 11. He considers it the first true superhero movie he’s ever made.“It’s a personal journey for Superman that’s entirely new,” Gunn said. “It is, first and foremost, about what does Superman learn about himself. But it’s also about the robots and the flying dogs and all that stuff. It’s taking a very real person and putting them in the middle of this outrageous situation and outrageous world and playing with that. I think it’s a lot of fun because of that.”he film introduces a new actor to the role of Superman/Clark Kent in David Corenswet, who stars alongside Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. Gunn said to expect different things from both.“It was a lot of fun making a Lex that is actually going to kill Superman,” he said. “He’s pretty scary.”The film is also “seeding the rest of the DCU,” Gunn said. “If it works as a movie in a basic way, that’s what we need to happen, that’s what I care about.”Superman as a brand has always trailed Batman at the box office. None of the Zack Snyder films crossed $1 billion, not accounting for inflation, while both Christopher Nolan “Dark Knight” sequels did. But Gunn isn’t thinking a lot about that.“I just want to make a decent movie that makes a little money,” Gunn said.A scene from Jurassic World: Rebirth (Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment via AP)Marvel’s first familySuperman’s not the only legacy brand getting a splashy reintroduction this summer. A new Fantastic Four crew, assembled for the first time under umbrella of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Kevin Feige, is heading to theaters July 25.“Fantastic Four is a comic I’ve loved since I was a kid,” said director Matt Shakman. “They are the legendary heroes of the ‘60s that the Marvel silver age was built on.”Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, The Fantastic Four is among Marvel’s longest-running comics series. But it has not had the most distinguished history on film, including two with Chris Evans and one with Michael B. Jordan.“The Fantastic Four: First Steps” is set in a retro-futuristic 1960s New York, where Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards is “basically Steve Jobs meets Einstein who’s creating technology that’s changing the world” and Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm is “essentially the secretary-general of the U.N.,” Shakman said.A television veteran with directing credits on shows like “WandaVision” and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” Shakman said he wants to do right by the characters, and audience.“It’s working on an incredibly large scale in terms of world building, but it’s also no different from all of the great comedies and dramas that I’ve done,” Shakman said. “In the end, it comes down to character, it comes down to relationships, it comes down to heart and humor.”Plus, he feels a responsibility to the idea of the big summer movie.“It was the joy of my childhood. ... A lot of it has to do with building worlds and entering into a place of wonder,” he said. “That’s what I felt when I saw ‘Indiana Jones’ when I was a kid and it’s what I hope people feel when they see ‘Fantastic Four’ this summer.”A scene from 'Smurfs' (Paramount Animation via AP)Why summer 2025 might be a big year for moviesStudios know that superheroes alone don’t make a robust theatrical marketplace and there are plenty of other options on the menu including franchises, event movies and independents: There are family pics (“Smurfs,” “Elio,” “The Bad Guys 2”); action and adventures (“Ballerina,” “The Karate Kid: Legends”); horrors, thrillers and slashers (“28 Years Later,” “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” “M3GAN 2.0”); romances (“Materialists,” “Jane Austen Wrecked My Life”); dramas (“Sorry, Baby,” “The Life of Chuck”); a new Wes Anderson movie (“The Phoenician Scheme”); and comedies (“Freakier Friday,” “Bride Hard,” “The Naked Gun”) — though one of the most anticipated, “Happy Gilmore 2,” will be on Netflix.“The frequency of movies, the cadence, the sheer number of them and the perceived quality and excitement surrounding this lineup is like almost like never before,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for Comscore. “Draw me a blueprint of a perfect summer lineup: 2025 is it.”One of the biggest movies of the season may be “Jurassic World Rebirth,” the seventh movie in a $6 billion franchise. Even its poorly received predecessor made $1 billion. This time they enlisted a new filmmaker, self-proclaimed “Jurassic Park” superfan Gareth Edwards, and the original’s screenwriter for a new adventure with Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey.“People say, like, do you feel pressure and the most pressure I feel is from myself as a fan and to Steven Spielberg, to not disappoint him,” Edwards said. “Weirdly what’s great about doing a ‘Jurassic’ movie is that everybody knows deep down that like half the reason they’re in this business is because of that film and Steven’s work.\"It’s fitting, in a way, that 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of what’s considered the first summer blockbuster: “Jaws.”Edwards said he was born into that world of big summer blockbusters that shaped his early love of movies. Directing one, he said, “is kind of the dream. You get the chance to swing for the fences.”And the unstable economy might work in the industry’s favor, at least when it comes to moviegoing. Even with increased ticket prices, theatrical movies remain the most affordable entertainment outside of the home and attendance tends to increase during recession years. The annual domestic box office crossed $10 billion for the first time in 2009.More recently, the week the tariffs were announced, “A Minecraft Movie” doubled its opening weekend projections, and all of those ticket buyers saw trailers and posters for everything to come. It was, Dergarabedian noted, one of the only positive financial stories that week.“Top Gun: Maverick” filmmaker Joseph Kosinski knows a few things about launching a pricey big screen spectacle into a turbulent marketplace. But he’s feeling good about the summer and “F1’s” place within it. Warner Bros. will release “F1” on June 27.“This is the summer where all this product that we’ve all been working on for the last few years is finally coming into the marketplace, so I’m very optimistic,” Kosinski said. “By the end of this summer, hopefully people aren’t talking about being in a funk anymore and it feels like we got our mojo back and we’re off to the races.”",
