00:00Christmas is just around the corner, so some passengers are rushing home to the provinces
00:05so they won't miss the expected arrival of bus terminals and services.
00:09Katrina Sol has the story.
00:15One week before Christmas,
00:17some people went to Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange or PITX
00:22to travel early to the provinces.
00:24It's better to travel early so it won't be hard to travel.
00:27It's better because the bus is busier.
00:29So it won't be a hassle to travel.
00:34PITX is already preparing,
00:36especially as they expect 2.3 million passengers to arrive
00:39from Wednesday, April 9 until the end of Christmas.
00:44The peak is expected to be Wednesday or Thursday.
00:48We're already preparing.
00:49There's enough supply for our vehicles
00:53because the demand is high.
00:55They also helped the operators to make sure
00:58that there are enough buses and LTFRBs
01:01to issue special permits for additional lines.
01:05There's also coordination with various agencies, including DOTR and LTO.
01:10For passengers who plan to buy a ticket early,
01:14there's also online booking.
01:17In Manila North Port,
01:18some people went home early to the provinces
01:21because it's harder for them to keep up with the number of passengers.
01:25I went home early so I won't be able to keep up with many people.
01:29It's harder to keep up next week.
01:31It's already the last week.
01:32There are also passengers in a terminal in Lauag, Ilocos Norte.
01:37The security in Patangas Port is tight
01:40as of 12 noon,
01:41there are almost 4,000 passengers today
01:44according to the Philippine Ports Authority or PPA.
01:47According to the Philippine Coast Guard,
01:49there are usually 25,000 passengers
01:52going out of Patangas Port every Holy Week.
01:55For GMA Integrated News,
01:57Katrina Son for 24 Hours.
02:03The National Privacy Commission warned parents
02:06to be careful when sharing pictures of children on social media.
02:10And that's what Mico Wahe is targeting.
02:19Gailie's mom posted a selfie and photos of her work.
02:24She rarely posts photos of her children
02:26who are 14, 13, 4, and 1 years old.
02:29Even sometimes, she's tempted to post their achievements.
02:33I think I find peace as well when we don't post that much.
02:38Anthony's wife is afraid
02:40that her children's faces will be exposed in the online world.
02:43When you put up something in the air,
02:45you don't know where it goes.
02:47So we want to make sure that whatever we put up there,
02:50we won't blame anyone.
02:52This is how children should be protected
02:55according to the National Privacy Commission or NPC.
02:58Because anyone can access this
03:02and we don't know what the intention is.
03:07Pictures and videos online
03:09are easy to download and re-upload
03:11and are used for sexual exploitation of children.
03:15Those who have bad intentions
03:17are usually waiting for public posts,
03:19especially online games
03:21where they need to post pictures
03:23and provide confidential information.
03:26There are a lot of parties or online contests
03:32on social media platforms
03:34where parents and fathers are encouraged
03:38to post their children's pictures in the comment section.
03:43There's also an address and a cell phone number.
03:46Others are using artificial intelligence
03:49to edit their children's pictures
03:52and sell them online.
03:54According to the NPC,
03:55if the so-called sharing and parenting
03:58where parents post online about their children
04:01cannot be avoided,
04:03they will not be harmed.
04:07If you feel someone is relevant to you,
04:11to your life and to your child's life,
04:13that's what we share.
04:15We always check the privacy settings
04:18of social media accounts.
04:20The NPC has a digital youth program
04:24that teaches youth to be responsibly online.
04:27We go to schools
04:30and conduct seminars
04:33for children,
04:35including parents and teachers
04:39to remind them of responsibility
04:42and how to be good netizens.
04:45For GMA Integrated News,
04:47I'm Nico Juage,
04:48for Tutok 24 Hours.
