ABOUT THE SHOW

It began with very casual crime scene reports, which continues to be the usual focus. Various crimes were featured, including kidnapping, slavery, child abuse, and various drug-related crimes. They were equipped with hidden cameras for doing entrapment operations with the help of the Philippine National Police, the National Bureau of Investigation, and the Department of Justice.

EXPANSION OF SOCIAL ISSUES

From crime reports, Imbestigador expanded into an all around investigative show. It now also features various societal problems such as corruption, problems in local governments, and illegal activities. It also has done special reports regarding poverty, honesty, cleanliness, education, wasted public funds, youths, and public health and safety. It also honored the late Pope John Paul II when Mike Enriquez did a special coverage regarding the late pope's funeral. He also acted as a quiz master regarding the report of education, which reported the education system is weakening. On their fifth anniversary special, the show acted as "Santa Claus" by giving computers to each police station in Metro Manila. It has also featured out of the country specials (in the United States, Japan, Italy, Singapore, France, and Germany). (excerpts from wikipedia.com)

I Witness - Jan 19, 09

My sister hates snakes, infact she is afraid of snakes. I am wondering if she has Ophidiophobia or most commonly called fear of snakes. While watching TV, my sister was sitting on the diet pad where is emits hot temperature and put on the body and so she cannot stop herself looking at the TV where the show is showing snakes which she dislikes very much. Now, my sister cannot help herself watching those eeewweeeee creatures.

Today's episode on I Witness was about the the Batanes's Pit Viper. An endangered species that can only be found in Batanes Philippines. This was hosted by Kara David, a jolly news journalist. She showed there that despite of the Republic Act passed last 2001 that prohibits anyone to catch animals whether endangered or not and to sell it at any amount. Most especially that the snakes they are talking about is endangered. It was tallyed by DENR that it reached for more than on thousand Vipers from Batanes where alreadt exported to other countries for medical purposes. Other buyers are for zoo purposes, etc. Prior to the RA ( Republic Act) when the bill has not been created, there were numerous hunters for vipers and they sell it that cost about 200- 1500 depending on the buyer. Until now, even when RA is implemented, underground transactions are done by few of the hunters and an inside job to the part of the exporter. Clever!

Pinoy Record

Pinoy Records is one of the recent GMA Network infotainment show which had its premiere episode on December 8, 2007. It is hosted by basketball player, Chris Tiu, boxing champ, Manny Pacquiao and Sheena Halili as the Segment host.

It has been a year only that this show recieved an award: Nominated, Best Reality Competition Program & Hosts (Manny Pacquiao & Chris Tiu)- 22nd PMPC Star Awards for TV 2008. That is fascinating though I do not watch the show more often. In fact I can only count with my two hands the times I have seen the show.

Though I have not seen much of it, I would just say that Pinoy Records is a good place for other sports minded to see other Filipinos excel in different fields of sports. They show a good opportunity to let us make proud of our very own Filipino athlete. Go! and make us proud of you!
