They should be in talks with the Department of Justice or representatives of the finance department and Central Bank.”<br /><div id="unruly-unit"></div><br />Still, the president stressed that he only enforces agreements and that he cannot agree or disagree with a proposition in which he has no authority. <br /><br />Earlier, Duterte said he’d ask for immunity if he were the Marcoses.<br /><br />“If I were the Marcoses, kung isauli ko man 'yan, sabihin ko sa kanila, maghingi kayo ng immunity. Otherwise, keep the goddamn money at baka isauli mo nga, makulong ka,” Duterte said.<br /><br />While the Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG)  has recovered at least P170 billion from the Marcoses as well as their cronies, the agency believes that the family stashed around $5 billion to $10 billion during their 20-year regime.<br /><br />Several lawmakers including Rep. Edcel Lagman, Bayan Muna Rep. Carlos Zarate and Ifugao Rep. Teddy Baguilat Jr. have opposed the plan to grant immunity to the family of the late dictator.<br /><br />For Baguilat, the quest for recovering the Marcos wealth was “more than just money.”<br /><br />“It’s about justice and accountability for the crimes against the people during Martial Law—the killings, the torture, the suppression of freedoms and the degradation of our democratic institutions,” Baguilat explained.<br /><b><br /></b> <b>-- Mini, The Summit Express</b></div>

If the secret songer is a SEE-nger, he/she will lipsynch to his/her own voice and if he/she is a SEE-ntunado, he/she will sing along to someone else’s voice. Two contestants must bid goodbye at the end of the round and will receive P10,000 each.<br /><br />In the final round called I Like to PROVE it, PROVE it, the last three secret songers will have their last chance to convince the guest star to pick them as the winner. Each one will present a piece of evidence, such as a photograph or a medal, to prove that they can really sing.<br /><br />The guest star again picks two contestant to eliminate, who will go home with P15,000 each. The last secret songer standing will be named the winner, get P25,000 cash, and sing a duet with the guest star. If the winner is a SEE-nger, he or she will automatically get to compete in “It’s Showtime’s” “Tawag ng Tanghalan.”<br /><br />This week, Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano and Broadway Diva Lea Salonga try their luck at guessing who the SEE-nger is.<br /><br />“I Can See Your Voice” is the first Korean game format localized by ABS-CBN. The show is a big hit in Korea and has been distributed in many countries worldwide.<br /><br />Don’t miss the premiere of “I Can See Your Voice” this Saturday and Sunday (Sep 16 and 17), 9:30 PM in ABS-CBN.</div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">MANILA, Philippines - As netizens anticipate the new look of former Hasht5 member Marlou Arizala a.k.a. Xander Ford following his cosmetic procedure, alleged photos of him have emerged online.<br /><br />In a Facebook post on Ethel Booba’s Charotism, two photos of a man who bears resemblance with Arizala were posted. But unlike the former boyband member, the man has a noticeably higher nose bridge and a sharper chin.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnqsH0reSIvOpsAa2Z0Yyy_dZCKnrniktocV_OfKUMhYO5Iq4lRdqz-Ys5Jn5YIwuqvcPzlCVvUkyGan2Jiu-u2DCq_BkBT5sUaZK0kllh7XHSJ_myeIuyDR756GTF5m5X9mh6ONBaYP8I/s1600/new-xander-ford-marlou.jpg" imageanchor="1" rel="nofollow" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Alleged photos of Xander Ford emerge online" border="0" class="img" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnqsH0reSIvOpsAa2Z0Yyy_dZCKnrniktocV_OfKUMhYO5Iq4lRdqz-Ys5Jn5YIwuqvcPzlCVvUkyGan2Jiu-u2DCq_BkBT5sUaZK0kllh7XHSJ_myeIuyDR756GTF5m5X9mh6ONBaYP8I/s1600/new-xander-ford-marlou.jpg" title="Alleged photos of Xander Ford emerge online" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">PHOTO CREDIT: Facebook/Ethel Booba’s Charotism</td></tr></tbody></table>It could be recalled that Arizala had a nose job and chin augmentation last September 4 at Marikina Doctors Hospital and Medical Center.

Netizens were quick to accuse Cruz of being under the influence of alcohol and even illegal drugs.<br /><div id="unruly-unit"></div><br /><center><div class="fb-video" data-href="https://web.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754989530089/" data-show-text="false" data-width="500"><blockquote cite="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754989530089/" class="fb-xfbml-parse-ignore"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754989530089/" rel="nofollow"></a><br />Posted by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fashionpulis.com</a> on Sunday, September 10, 2017</blockquote></div></center><br /><center><div class="fb-video" data-href="https://web.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754992863422/" data-show-text="false" data-width="500"><blockquote cite="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754992863422/" class="fb-xfbml-parse-ignore"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/videos/1638754992863422/" rel="nofollow"></a><br />Posted by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/fashionpulis/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fashionpulis.com</a> on Sunday, September 10, 2017</blockquote></div></center><br />On Monday, September 11, Cruz posted a short message on his Instagram account to address the issue.

WATCH: Family digs corpse of dead girl allegedly urinating, defacating

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">MANILA, Philippines - The family of a four-year-old girl from Barangay San Ignacio, Ilagan in Isabela decided to exhume her remains from the tomb after a faith healer told them that she was still alive.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8nfdk-wUBrNs3IpJOApFACik5CbxINpovpKzGXVSwoyj4aM-mrtEL3r4LtjxMECf_48sfk00PxLF-4jVXMERozUHVfZ7-VHNE0NCMR0CKslla9Qr3Mheq-azzruA7pwhhJNtzgoH8YV_Q/s1600/jenny-rose.jpg" imageanchor="1" rel="nofollow" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Family digs corpse of dead girl allegedly urinating, defacating" border="0" class="img" data-original-height="300" data-original-width="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8nfdk-wUBrNs3IpJOApFACik5CbxINpovpKzGXVSwoyj4aM-mrtEL3r4LtjxMECf_48sfk00PxLF-4jVXMERozUHVfZ7-VHNE0NCMR0CKslla9Qr3Mheq-azzruA7pwhhJNtzgoH8YV_Q/s1600/jenny-rose.jpg" title="Family digs corpse of dead girl allegedly urinating, defacating" /></a></div><br />But unlike Lazarus, Jenny Rose Jacinto didn’t come back from the dead and had to be buried again.<br /><br />Jacinto, who succumbed to bacterial meningitis fell ill on August 28 and experienced high fever, vomiting, difficulty breathing and convulsions. Although she received treatment at Isabela Provincial Hospital, the four-year-old girl passed away on August 30.<br /><br />Her family laid her to rest on September 1.<br /><div id="unruly-unit"></div><br />A day after her burial, a relative of the family told them that Jenny Rose was still alive as claimed by a faith healer named Loreto Dasalla. Convinced, the family dug up the girl’s corpse and were surprised to see that her body was still soft.<br /><br />Moreover, witnesses claim that the girl urinated and defacated several times giving them more reason to believe that she was still alive.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the family decided to bury Jenny Rose again as she didn’t come back to life after 24 hours. <br /><br />The team of Kapuso Mo Jessica Soho (KMJS) decided to seek the help of experts to shed light on the peculiar incident. <br /><br />In his interview with KMJS, medico legal officer Dr. Jay Jimenez explained that it’s normal for corpses to release body fluids since air produced from decomposition can push out body contents.<br /><br />“When a person dies, part of the decomposition process is the production of gas. It is conceivable po that the gas can push the contents of the intestines out, kahit sa bladder out. How long it lasts, it also depends on the climate, but it’s generally held after 72 hours,” Dr. Jimenez said.<br /><br />Watch the story below.<br /><br /><center><div class="video-wrapper"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vJFn6UHE_VY" width="100%"></iframe></div></center><br /><b>-- Mini, The Summit Express</b></div>
