BALITANG SHOWBIZ: Beyond the Exchange anchor 'Rico Hizon' unveils secrets from the 'Pinoy Big Brother' house, ahead of Celebrity Collab Edition grand finale [#OneNETnewsEXCLUSIVE]
QUEZON, MANILA -- Anticipation growing towards the next "Big Night" of 'Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition' that will soon feature the crowning of the Big 4 grand finalists Saturday night (July 5th, 2025), an unexpected twist still caught the fans by surprise. Veteran business anchor 'Mr. Rico Morales Hizon', with his insightful interviews, broke his silence with a rare and long-awaited new segmented episode of the ABS-CBN News Channel's "Beyond the Exchange" Tuesday night, June 24th.
Hizon, who was originally rumored to be the next guest housemate of this season, was instead in the well-known Confession Room. He was not a confession though; he was an interview with a face, a mysterious voice behind the cameras, Kuya himself. This unusual sit-down interview gave us a very close look inside his mind of the entity that has controlled the daily lives of so many Filipino housemates for nearly the past two (2) decades.
The interview focused on the core of the 'Pinoy Big Brother' as it celebrates its 20th anniversary coming in late-mid August of this year. It emphasized the legacy of the show, centering on the drama, the problems of the current and past housemates, and most importantly, the role of Kuya to watch over the housemates. His male voice, which can always be heard, promises a healthy and fair reality competition, and it takes housemates through challenges and victories.
"Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" airs every Monday to Saturday nights on 'GMA' as fans are on the edge of their seats as the grand weekend finale hangs in the tough balance.

BALITANG INTERNASYONAL: American VTuber 'Pipkin Pippa' target of planned assassination foiled counter-terrorist suspect by Tennessee state police
(Written by Stella Zhau / News Correspondent of Nickelodeon Action News)
T.W.: The following international news report contains content related to planned violence and extremist views, which may be disturbing to some individuals. Viewer discretion is STRONGLY ADVISED!!!
MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE -- A planned online fan attack potentially killing a female Virtual YouTuber (VTuber) that shocked the world during "No Kings" protest all across the United States. Safe space of negativity may be compromised for some people, concerning issues of extreme mental illness.
The autistic suspect man named 'Mr. Elijah Jordan Millar' who previously reported missing in early mid-October 2023 at the age of 17 after telling his mother to go for an airsoft event. He is placed under emergency conservatorship within that same year, due to being considered a disabled person needing care and protection under the law. This conservatorship restricted his access to firearms, requiring oversight from a conservator or stepfather.
Two (2) years later, he personally attended an on-foot peaceful rally in downtown Nashville clashing with a few of the thousands of protesters telling demonstrators not to do any political communism involved, according to CBS-affiliate local news station WTVF-TV's NewsChannel 5 in Nashville. Millar was arrested Saturday (June 14th, 2025 -- Central local time) as a counter-terrorist individual.
His online activity on the X Network's social media account, which is independently verified to 'Nickelodeon Action News'… A series of tweeted posts ranged from extremist issues, depopulating civilians for non-communists, and showcasing types of weapons within months before the planned attack.
On Wednesday (December 18th, 2024), Millar's plan set to kill an American anime VTuber namely 'Pipkin Pippa' under its virtual Canadian agency 'Phase-Connect' saving it before the mid-year of 2025. With her wild sense of adult humor and quick thinking, Pippa has established quite a niche in the world of VTubers by mixing traditional anime-style streaming with a heavy dose of internet culture commentary, satire and her unapologetic honesty. Millar targets anime VTuber's fan with his revolver, left beside a book titled 'Democracy: The God That Failed'.
Yet, he was about to kill off-camera with an anime VTuber but was safely foiled by the local police, ahead of the ongoing peaceful rally of "No Kings". The other Wednesday (June 18th, 2025), 'Pipkin Pippa' refused to comment on stream, nor discuss anti-politics issues in the outside world. Instead, she played a detective game to cheer them up with several paid chat donations. Canadian virtual agency 'Phase-Connect' has yet or refuse to make an apology statement against the Tennessee counter-terrorist suspect.
As we have all understood in this situation, he was initially taken to a local hospital for a prompt psychiatric evaluation. Following the doctors' decision to release him, Millar is anticipated to confront profoundly severe gun-related charges, hate crimes, death threats, cyberstalking, and so forth; this includes one or more counts of attempted first-degree murder, both online and physically, against the American anime VTuber 'Pipkin Pippa'. The VTuber community desperately needs immediate life support for her, or she may eventually face forced agency graduation from 'Phase-Connect'.

BALITANG REHIYONAL: San Juan's annual 'Wattah Wattah Festival' questionably expanding to its festive Binalbagan town? [#OnlyOnOneNETnews]
BINALBAGAN, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL -- Five (5) years after the global pandemic of Coronavirus Disease-19 (CoViD-19) from China, city officials of 'San Juan' out of 'Mega Manila' in National Capital Region (NCR) returned to the main roots to celebrate 'Wattah Wattah Festival' (WWF) on Tuesday morning (June 24th, 2025 -- Manila local time). This was recently, in relation to a feast of 'St. John the Baptist' showering everyone to cleanse for the coming of Jesus Christ by baptizing them with water.
This year's festival is regulated under City Ordinance #14 - Series of 2025 ensuring a safer and more organized celebration for good, as long as the areas designated only in the "Basaan Zones" from 7am to 2pm. Liquor bans and outside the said zones such as dirty water are absolutely prohibited.
Here in Negros Island Region (NIR), life goes everything back to normal to celebrate fiesta with some examples in 'Bayawan, Negros Oriental' to eat food and attend lighter events like locals do. Boosting up the hype, the Binalbagan Fire Station (BFS) spewing everyone out for the annual celebration out of Mega Manila. But, things were a little bit concerning… Is it really legal to do this in Negros Occidental?
Both in 'San Juan City, Metro Manila' and in 'Barangay San Juan, Binalbagan' this said NIR province is traditionally almost the same, often community-organized events honoring its also said patron saint. We can agree to tell you that, yes, celebrations like this at WWF are completely legal.
Local government units (LGUs) located in both places have imposed strict guidelines to guarantee the safety of the people and uphold the cultural importance of the event. They are encouraged to dress suitably, observe health standards and adhere to the zones where water is splashed to avoid any possible disturbances, accidents or riots that erupted during the festive celebration.
As the 'Wattah Wattah Festival' (WWF) continues to spread out its cultural origins in San Juan City to the Binalbagan town, the Negrosanons can now enjoy the same colorful tradition without having to travel to Mega Manila in NCR and in the process bringing the festive water-splashing festival a bit nearer to their location without losing its legal and cultural heritage.

HUMAN INTEREST: Deltarune's Ralsei secretly mixed-up on Israel, even for Eurovision? Jewish Gamers debate sketchy anagram [#FirstOnDisneyXDNews]
(Written by Libby Josefine Stein-Torres / Guest News Intern of Disney XD News)
JERUSALEM, ISRAEL -- An indie smashed hit with its main predecessor of Undertale. The Jewish gamer community debates the true nature of Ralsei, the charming "Prince of the Dark". But a recent (though definitely speculative) game theory has brought a rather unexpected political twist to the argument, focusing on what appears to be an inconsequential bit of detail: the very name of this fictional gaming character.
Disney XD News travels one religious country that speaks in Hebrew dialect where a vocabulary word is considered an anagram called 'Isarel'. Ralsei, the kind-hearted deuteragonist from Deltarune was created by American gaming developer 'Robert Ford "Toby" Fox'. Since then, teens and us adults who have played video games are in the works of fiction. But in reality, this connection has led some to question if there's a hidden message or political commentaries.
Ralsei, first appearing in Chapter 1 of Deltarune, is a non-violent, empathetic, healing-centric guide, an idea to be stressed further as a deuteragonist character. He assists you the player, other characters of the game 'Kris Dreemurr' and 'Susie' to navigate through challenges.
This is not the first instance in which fans have gone deep into the lore of Deltarune to find hidden meanings and the mysterious prophecies that guide its story. But the "Ralsei is Israel" theory treads much more on thin ice, given the current geopolitical debate about the country.
To make the story even more curious, there have been even some speculations linking it to the Israeli contribution to the 18th Eurovision Song Contest (ESC). Israel has been a consistent participant in Eurovision since early mid-April 1973, winning four (4) times from 1978, 1979, 1998 and 2018.
Although they are not technically in Europe, they are also part of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) which enables them to be included. Such involvement has occasionally proved controversial, especially in recent years, when their involvement has been the subject of mass boycotts and protests. At present, following this year's ESC when Filipino-Austrian singer 'Johannes Pietsch' won the competition, the war against Iran for Israel began in mid-June 2025 and is more likely to declare 'World War 3' in this historic century.
In general, it's crucial to stress between 'Toby Fox' or the Deltarune game development team cuts connection of Ralsei to Israel, or any religious and political themes. His character arc from Chapter 1 revolves around themes of friendship, self-acceptance and understanding.
In any case, the inarguable anagram of "Ralsei to Israel" is supported by the independent American game developer, but it is hypothetical to consider that a deeper political meaning is present. At this point, it is all a game theory to the interest of the Deltarune Jewish fan community, and it is a testament to how even fictional characters can get used as a canvas to paint real-life interpretations.
Deltarune is available now on all chapters worldwide including Israel for purchase on Steam (PC & Mac), Nintendo Switch and PlayStation consoles.

#OnlyOnOneNETnews: Cebuano influencer 'Mike Angelo Peloton' seeks help for Eye Complication at ONC Foundation
LILOAN, CEBU -- A Cebuano content creator, influencer and endorser 'Mike Angelo Peloton' is reportedly experiencing an undisclosed eye complication, and has made an urgent plea for its financial assistance. The news comes after an exclusive short conversation on Tuesday afternoon (June 24th, 2025 -- Cebu local time), where Peloton requested to reach out for a PHP1,000 loan as a temporal donation to cover an eye check-up.
Peloton stated to OneNETnews in Cebuano dialect: "Sa Hunyo 30 paman gud ako kwarta, need unta ko magpa‑check up sa akong mata… Pwede ko manghuwam ug PHP 1,000 nimu sir? Ilisan ra inig katapusan… Bisag kinsa nalang akong gepang kontakt", he said. Peloton is expected to repay after processing donations by this weekend or earlier than scheduled, which is part of our public service in the online television broadcasting industry.
An online personality from Metro Cebu gained prominence through his critic food reviews, which once attracted much attention. Peloton is not new to the limelight. In early mid-August 2023, he faced public backlash after critically reviewing and excessively delaying an order at the Dumaguete branch of the Filipino fast-food chain 'Mang Inasal' after giving himself a worst 2 out of 10 score.
The case where 'Mang Inasal' did not independently provide a national statement to be retrained immediately, or responding possible violations of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), putting the fast food giant industry in the lime lights. 'OneNETnews' attempted to reach out to Peloton for a comment via video or audio Messenger call at the time, even after his negative review was taken down, but he refused. Adding to the controversy, Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) which owns 'Mang Inasal', has also not released a public apology or company statement regarding the 2 y/o incident, a move that has reportedly contributed to a loss of trust and partial bankruptcy for the corporation as of this press time.
At this point, it is unclear what exactly is wrong with the eyes of Peloton, and it can be cataracts, as well as minor or medium-rare blindness problems. According to ophthalmologist experts, untreated eye issues may cause many problems such as blurred vision, pain, and sensitivity to light among others, and in extreme cases, complete vision loss. Although it is speculative to connect his current condition of the eye to the emotional sufferings he once had, the notion of psychosomatic disorders, where the mind-related conditions are expressed through the body can theoretically be applied to his previous case of anger. But this is just a theory unless there is a medical diagnosis done during an eye examination.
Earlier today, Peloton is reportedly seeking public service and financial assistance at 'ONC Foundation' under 'ONC Holdings Incorporated'. He desperately requires a donation of PHP1,000 (approximately U$D17.60) in the form of an unsecured loan, and his next salary check is due next week on Monday (June 30th). This plea for assistance comes with a special acknowledgment to Ilocos Sur businessman and politician 'Luis Crisologo "Chavit" Singson'. Following last week's Birthday Raffle on Saturday night (June 21st)… ONC Foundation will soon settle the debts with lending institutions and contribute one-time federal funding to the provincial government of Negros Oriental under the assistance of the Persons with Disability Affairs Office (PDAO). Peloton has apparently changed his mind and now he is not ashamed to ask Negrosanons and the people of Central Visayas to help him with his eye condition.
Online bashers and past toxic netizens must be seriously mindful of hate speech and harassment against Peloton, and the management of 'Mang Inasal' in Dumaguete. Instead, donations from viewers, listeners and news readers like you asking to make contributions directly at ONC Foundation via GCash and Maya in the Philippines at 0994-269-6055. International donations are also available to chip in through Ko-Fi, Throne and Wise on our donation news site.

BALITANG REHIYONAL: Bacolod suspect 'Tricia' surfaces in Himamaylan raising theft, partially drunk and poverty [#FollowUpReport]
(Written by Dominique Canio / Regional News Contributor of OneNETnews)
HIMAMAYLAN, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL -- In the after-hours of weekend poverty concerns, we are learning more about a Bacolodnon suspect named alyas 'Tricia' who was previously and consistently involving theft from public markets, sari-sari stores and supermarkets.
She was last seen while washing her hair while bathing along the coastline in 'Barangay Aguisan' on Saturday (June 21st, 2025 -- Bacolod local time), going tirelessly on foot for almost 17 hours from Bacolod to Himamaylan. It was described wearing a pink sando and holding a small piece of wood. 'Tricia' was seen carrying a large plastic bag and was noted to be loitering after bathing in the sea.
OneNETnews examines the situation in Himamaylan town where she terribly wanders around to find food to eat. It is believed to be a consequence of poverty, stealing things in public, and constant financial struggles leading to substance dependency, though the specific nature of neither its drugs or alcohol. Residents in this said barangay are so alarming and it needs to be assessed with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Negros Occidental Police Provincial Office (NOCPPO) and the Provincial Government of Negros Occidental.
Police officials and barangay tanods may soon begin a potential search warrant as the investigation remains ongoing. Local authorities in Negros Occidental are closely monitoring the situation and to gather more evidence about recent activities in alcohol and poverty troubles may soon be booked in the detention cell.

FOLLOW-UP REPORT: A newest Japanese sound of 'DZMM Radyo Patrol' station ID could expand International Airwaves with MSPC
QUEZON, MANILA -- Japanese cover artist and singer 'Hachi Joseph Yoshida' recently sang their top-of-the-hour station identification jingle rendition tune over the late weekend for a commercial radio broadcaster 'DZMM Radyo Patrol 630' in Mega and Metro Manila, per originally sung by 'Martin Ramon Nievera'. Entertainment veteran radio host 'Ruel "Ahwel" Patiag Paz', along with singer and co-interpreter 'Ms. Maria Pangilingan' talks together behind the scenes about that station ID cover song.
In an exclusive radio interview with DZMM last Sunday afternoon via video call (June 22nd, 2025 -- Manila local time), his first appearance featured nationally on 'DZMM Teleradyo' and on free local radio in Manila, brought together directly connected to Japan in one whole segment. Yoshida, who has composed over 400 songs and has been active on both video-sharing platforms 'YouTube' and 'TikTok' since the start of late-June 2015, surprised many by mastering the Japanese rendition of the DZMM station ID jingle in just five (5) days.
Yoshida revealed that the idea came from fan requests on YouTube (Google's parent company 'Alphabet') after they learned of his interest and DZMM's prominence in the Philippines. He first discovered the station through local friends, somewhat to call a word of mouth, and his prior experiences in the said country include a guest appearance on a long-running noontime show on TV5 called "Eat Bulaga" in mid-September 2024, and a viral Japanese‑language cover, which garnered more than 1 million views. He also vlogged his trips across National Capital Region (NCR) in Quezon City, Makati and Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig, where he met local musicians and immersed himself in Filipino culture.
A new exploration of Filipino songs roughly started back in Q4 2016 when he was a student alone in Metro Cebu, where he was amazed by the vocal talent of singers and the vibrant street music culture there. He even recalled the beaches of Cebu and the vibrance of Manila.
In the future, he hoped that the next time he would be able to visit Bohol by seeing the mountainous Chocolate Hills and tarsiers. Although he currently has no LIVE performances scheduled in this country, he remains engaged online and plans to cover classic Filipino groups such as Eraserheads, SoundBreak19 (SB19) and Itchyworms. This does not necessarily go on tour without securing a music contract with the talent agency of ABS-CBN's Star Magic.
His passion for Original Pinoy Music (OPM) covers, translated entirely into Japanese, continues to grow. He concludes the video call interview with a short acapella chorus part of DZMM radio station ID, inviting listeners to suggest places to visit in Japan and Filipino artists for possible collaborations.
Alongside the station ID cover song, Media Serbisyo Production Corporation (MSPC) is still in talks to potentially expand in the industry of news radio franchise, because of its popularity to hear the latest news, talk and public affairs. International hiring for aspiring Japanese radio reporters, correspondents and station managers may have an opportunity to work with DZMM as a new global affiliate or owned-and-operated (O&O) radio station if negotiations proceed successfully and mutual agreements are reached between both parties.
With the viral cover of the station ID song of DZMM still buzzing in the news media business on free radio, DZMM and Media Serbisyo Production Corporation (MSPC), the company behind the cover of the new station ID song, are optimistically dealing cautiously with the prospects of cross-border collaborations, knowing that their media expansion into other countries would need to have a series of legal and regulatory approvals in the Japanese broadcasting industry.
The unsuspected cultural exchange ignited by the musical interpretation of 'Hachi Joseph Yoshida' demonstrates the increasing interconnectedness of media space and the possibility of dynamic cross-cultural communications in the digital age, especially best paired with transistor radio sets.

BALITANG SHOWBIZ: Troy Tisoy ends almost 2 decades of on-air Love Matchmaker from MBC Media Group to K5 News FM [#FirstOnOneNETnews]
(Written by Steven Quartz Universe / Regional Correspondent of Cartoon Network News)
SAGAY, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL -- Match-making of love on free radio lost a beloved voice of Negrosanons. 'Norberto Lapoy Celestial Jr.', affectionately known on-air as "Troy Tisoy", made the difficult decision to step down from his dual role of a radio disc jockey (DJ) at K5 News FM: Sagay & Escalante and Station Manager, after a storied 19-year broadcasting journey Thursday night (June 19th, 2025 -- Bacolod local time). Naming the show's programme called 'Phonepal'. It became a popular staple: a real-time matchmaking radio programme that united lonely hearts in Western Visayas. Lovers were linked together in real time and built real relationships, some even married forever in a manner of discovery thru FM radio.
Norberto's passion for radio ignited in 2006 at just 18 y/o, when he began his career on Sagay's defunct DYRG‑FM 88.3mhz's HOT FM. He subsequently entered the 'Manila Broadcasting Company' (later called 'MBC Media Group') where he captivated the audience with his amiable and friendly voice. By the mid-2010s, he moved to Radio Mindanao Network (RMN)'s iFM: Iloilo on DYIC-FM 95.1mhz, where he made his name in Iloilo.
Norberto transferred to Radyo Bandera: Sweet FM (RBSFM) network in April 2017, assuming other new roles in Negros Occidental and Panay provinces. When the network rebranded to K5 News FM Philippines, an affiliate regional flagship station of 5K Broadcasting Network Inc. (5KBNi) in December 2023, he stood at the helm of K5 News FM's Sagay affiliate on DYJU-FM 89.7mhz, launched under 5KBNi following Bacolod's lead at DYQU-FM 103.9mhz (formerly 100.5 on local free radio frequency dial).
On Saturday night (June 21st), Norberto released his social media captioned post: "I am no longer connected with 'K5 News FM Philippines'. To my [Negrosanon] listeners, I'm truly grateful for the time we spent together on the airwaves, the laughter, and the connection we've built over the years. This isn't the end, just the beginning of a new chapter. You can still catch me soon on other platforms and new projects", said matchmaker radio host of 'Troy Tisoy'. His legacy will surely miss him for his final farewell marks an end to its FM chapter. To some, an era when Sagay and Escalante would listen not only to news or music but to human connection, created by a sweet gentle voice on primetime.
People in Sagay are mourning and reminiscing on the city streets. People recall late-night shows listening to the soft voice of Troy Tisoy, the laughter and intimacy of the callers as they shared their experiences in seeking love. The programme became part of their daily lives—especially those whose holiday evenings were brightened by hope on the airwaves.
Listeners were shedding tears on the air, exchanging silence and goodbye in his last show before 9pm. The romance of radio may fade, but the sounds of courage Norberto had to reach out to the people of Western Visayas will still ring in the hearts of all whom he reached. Bacolodnons and the rest of Sagay & Escalante had a moment of real on-air love and now see a book to close it out. The memories are there, though silent, but still they stay, and it proves that there is a true connection that does not turn off even after the last farewell. Troy Tisoy bids farewell to the last audible legacy of love.

BALITANG REHIYONAL: 2 Tobosonians killed by suspects at a Public Market
TOBOSO, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL -- On Sunday morning (June 22nd, 2025 -- Bacolod local time), two people were killed at the public market in 'Sitio Stop Aguinaldo, Barangay San Isidro, Toboso, Negros Occidental'. The victims identified by local police namely 'Elias Palay' from Old Poblacion, and 'Joebert "Putot" Alonsado' from San Isidro. Both of them locally are from a town of Toboso.
Investigators indicate that Palay was at his dry goods shop when a group of suspects wearing bonnets, approached him and fired several shots with a .45 caliber pistol. One or more of the unidentified assailants attempted to escape amidst the gunfire but was spotted by Alonsado, who was then targeted with the same weapon, resulting in injuries to several areas of his body. Four (4) of the suspected men left the scene of the bustling public market attack.
Palay was an active spy of the 79th Infantry Battalion (IB) and has been surveilling the movement of Roselyn Jean Pelle Command-New People's Army (RJPC-NPA) units in Barangay General Luna, this said town and nearby areas. While Alonsado selling crystal meth (locally known as shabu) in candy form, but reactionary authorities and law enforcement turned a blind eye.
Two victims were declared dead by a local responder of the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office of Toboso (MDRRMO). Police are investigating the incident without any motive, and are conducting a hot pursuit to track down the suspects over the late-weekend.

BALITANG SHOWBIZ: 'DZMM Radyo Patrol' goes international with a new Japanese station ID cover song? [#OnlyOnOneNETnews]
KYOTO, JAPAN -- A week after its AM radio rebrand from 'DWPM Radyo 630' to 'DZMM Radyo Patrol 630', 37 y/o Japanese cover singer named 'Mr. Hachi Joseph Yoshida' sang the cover of Martin Ramon Nievera's new station ID for listeners both in Metro and Mega Manila on free radio.
Hailing from Shiga Prefecture in Kyoto, Yoshida delivered an impressive set of Japanese language covers of Original Pinoy Music (OPM), theme songs and even top-of-the-hour station identification tune. He joined YouTube in late June 2015, and later expanded on TikTok in mid-December 2021, tapping into platforms that are now led currently and outgoing by Google's parent company 'Alphabet' and 'ByteDance'.
Japanese listeners and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) alike have tuned into the top-of-the-hour station ID of DZMM, presented in the warm Kansai dialect. Meanwhile, Media Serbisyo Production Corporation (MSPC) is considering an expansion that will include a blend of News, Talk and Public Affairs, with plans to scout aspiring radio reporters, correspondents and station managers nationwide. At the same time, Yoshida is said to be on the verge of jumping off his independent beginnings to a possible talent agency contract with ABS-CBN's Star Magic, witnessing his transformation into a professional singer with his alluring song covers and relentless promotion of Pinoy music.
In the coming months or later than scheduled, insiders are looking forward to the mainstream entry of Yoshida as he gets closer to signing with the said talent entertainment agency. His emotional interpretations and distinct style have already conquered audiences, and he is a potential OPM ambassador. This shift does not only show his commitment to raising Filipino musical heritage, which is evident through his moving performance of the station ID of DZMM, but it is also a thrilling convergence of his global style with established musical heritage.
With MSPC looking forward to an ambitious plan of reaching a wider audience to its 'Radyo Patrol' brand, including Japanese listeners and OFWs as part of the first international radio franchise in the country, the network finds itself now in a precipitous moment of choice. Will the station want to consider changing to a commercial news radio and public affairs format to increase revenue and reach a broader range of advertisers?
The advocates claim that commercial broadcasting may stimulate creative broadcasting and improve international interaction, but the opponents warn that it may threaten the long history of the station of objective, public-focused journalism. The decision, in a way, is viewed as a calculated risk to strengthen the international identity of the station along with maintaining the integrity of its news delivery.
Because of his Japanese song cover of DZMM's new station ID by Martin Ramon Nievera, Yoshida has emerged as a key figure in DZMM Radyo Patrol 630's ambitious plans for international expansion. As Yoshida may soon go mainstream under a possible talent agency deal with Star Magic of ABS-CBN, the future of the international expansion of DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 looks very promising to tell.
His transformation to a legitimate Star Magic cover singer with his heart-stirring song covers and unnerving mastering of Pinoy music can also advance the station to greater heights globally and finally cement its name as an innovator in the domain of international radio franchises.

BALITANG REHIYONAL: Woman surrenders for E-Wallet Transaction Scam in Binalbagan town
(Written by Dominique Canio / Regional News Contributor of OneNETnews)
BINALBAGAN, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL -- A woman identified as alias 'Negra' recently surrendered to the Binalbagan Municipal Police Station (BMPS) in connection with a fraudulent mobile electronic wallet transaction that swindled a local store. The surrenderee comes as authorities reveal the suspect had plans for another scheme intended to mimic a legitimate pawnshop payment for GCash.
The incident, which occurred on Thursday afternoon (June 5th, 2025 -- Bacolod local time), involved a female suspect from Victorias town who allegedly defrauded "KYG Auto Parts Trading" on 'Carmen Street, Barangay San Pedro, Binalbagan, Negros Occidental'. Security footage captured the suspect during the transaction.
Authorities examining the background of the transactions that involved unverified cash-ins, withdrawals or purchases of medium to high sums. OneNETnews understands that there was no clarity on whether the transactions themselves were fraudulent since no details were confirmed prior to the victim sending money out of their GCash auto trading store account to the suspect.
The fintech e-wallet firm is collaborating with the BMPS to examine the case further and possibly retrieve any stolen funds. The firm is also expected to deactivate the suspect's digital e-wallet account pending her arrest. Fulfilling a sense of accountability, the woman recently turned herself in at BMPS. Police say, her surrender is expected to make the identification process easier and also help retrieve the stolen proceeds.
With the surrender of alias 'Negra', the BMPS is now also investigating her alleged plan to defraud a local pawnshop using the mobile e-wallet platform.

FOLLOW-UP FLASH REPORT: Mature-rated TV anime "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" air on 3 networks in Japan, including Dumaguete's first internet public broadcaster for Season 2 by early mid-July 2025 [#K5NewsFMExclusive]
(Written by Hayase Nagatoro & Rhayniel Saldasal Calimpong / S3x Columnist, Freelance News Writer and Presenter of OneNETnews, Online Media Reporter of ONC, and Asian Correspondent of Tokyo MX News)
TOKYO, JAPAN -- On Monday afternoon (June 2nd, 2025), 'K5 News FM: Dumaguete' obtained the exclusive anime trailer footage directly from 'Studio Trigger' ahead of online release on YouTube (Google's parent company 'Alphabet'). Within just a month away, Daten City is about to turn it up for this upcoming 2nd new season of "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" in high definition (HD).
The lineup features two (2) new male angels 'Polyester' and 'Polyurethane', together with the returning main sister characters 'Scanty' and 'Kneesocks Daemon', as well as 'Panty' and 'Stocking Anarchy'. The center stage is occupied with names of 'Rev. Fr. Garterbelt' and 'Briefers Rock' that referred to one of the major visual posters where we see so many weapons and the vulgarity is added to the mildest family act on primetime and the spiciest fictional ecchi character.
Per new trailer footage, a mysterious chanter begins a ritual to summon evil spirits born from those lost between heaven and earth in Daten City. Cars revving up with returning favorites adding plot developments to its anime series. From one-on-one rugby-like matches to heated arguments without peace and order. The only instance is to kill the angels excluding civilians. Monsterous villains are also a plus. Briefers and Panty may have a full-time relationship to start over from the sequel of Season 1, nearly close to slice-of-life romance at the prom dating night.
At the end of it, 'Polyester' and 'Polyurethane' feature a new kind of Japanese pop star into its new male angel personalities of this season. Summoning and transformation call for the king of hell, which all of them are growing up in advance but only for a short while. Concluding off with 'Rev. Fr. Garterbelt' talked on the phone about what really happens next.
Anime insider 'SugoiLite' told exclusively to 'K5 News FM: Dumaguete', the televised Japanese airdate for July next month was declared officially and independently confirmed by its production company 'Studio Trigger'. Neither 'Crunchyroll' nor 'HiDive' has yet to secure simul-dubbing rights in English dub within the same week as Japan.
Excitement is in the air for the World Premiere at this year's Anime Expo in 'Los Angeles, California'. Mark your calendars for July 4th at 8:30pm (Pacific local time) as we unveil Episode 1 via the Trigger Panel at the Peacock Theater in the L.A. Convention Center in America. Be one of the first to see it on the big screen, possibly uncensored, prior to its release in Japan!
"Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" (Season 2) will be aired LIVE and direct from Daten City. The 2nd season airs in censored variants either TV-PG or TV-14-LV, most occasionally TV-MA-LSV for new episodes premiering July 9th at 1am (Japan local time), only on BS Nippon TV, JOMX-TV 9's Tokyo MX and JOUH-TV 3's Sun TV, as with 5 regional TV affiliates across Japan in similar timeslots. The uncensored version is slated to air exclusively a week later by Tuesday (July 15th) at 8:30pm on AT-X.
And for the first time ever, ONC Holdings brings Negrosanon anime fans to the world as internet public broadcaster 'OneNETtv Channel' in Dumaguete City airs at the same timeslot from Japan. New episodes commence for this season starting at 12 MIDNIGHT (Dumaguete local time) after 'Super Balita sa Gabi' with 'Shirley Escalante' and 'Balitang A2Z' with 'Barbie Salvador Muhlach'.
A long-awaited 2nd season of "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" will air next month after 15 years of hiatus. Fans will get what they have come to expect of the series, a mix of action, ecchi and vulgaritive comedy, with an added twist of a mysterious ritual.
The series will air both on Japanese television, streaming legally online, and make its worldwide debut at the Anime Expo in Los Angeles, exciting anime fans for not just in Japan. The whole world is watching to see a mature-rated anime that is action-packed and tissues tributing in spicy sex terms in an unforgettable experience of angelic sister duos between the pro and antagonist personalities.

FOLLOW-UP REPORT: Cherie's Cheesecake House eyes June launch at Portal West [#OnlyOnDisneyXDNews]
(Written by Scott Denoga / News Intern of Disney XD News)
DUMAGUETE, NEGROS ORIENTAL -- Independent cheesecake dessert chain "Cherie's Cheesecake House" (CCH) recently announced its relocation from "Jekyll's Arcade" on Cervantes Street to the intersection of Hibbard Avenue, close to the private educational institution "Silliman University" (SU) is currently pending for confirmation.
Disney XD News highlighted the current state of CCH, noting that two (2) construction workers at "Jekyll's Arcade" have dismantled one shop and are slated for in-store demolition. In addition, concerning SU, adjacent to the Portal West building, the local photo supply store "Haru Studio" might soon close its doors, or turn left via Silliman Avenue to vacate its space, potentially making way for Cherie's Cheesecake House.
The news team attempted to find CCH at Blessed Homes Subdivision (BHS) in Barangay Daro, where it was said to be a source delivery store with GrabFood's map precision, yet it was nowhere to be found. This implies that, in theory, the cheesecake dessert chain was secretly handling delivery orders from an undisclosed home site.
Cheesecake and drink menus will not be impacted if you're on meet-up or online via the said ride-hailing and food delivery platform. Nonetheless, the expected new location along SU at Portal West building in this said avenue may soon be finalized if all else goes into the plan, but it may be changed in the event of delays. Cherie's Cheesecake House is expected to be launched in a new location coming this late-June 2025.

BALITANG NASYONAL: DepEd's Brigada Eskwela sweeping up with BAN Toxics at Payatas B for Toxics-Free Classes
QUEZON, METRO MANILA -- Environmental group 'BAN Toxics' had recently partnered with Payatas B Elementary School (PBES) in Quezon City, Metro Manila to campaign for a toxics-free and waste-free opening of classes during the nationwide kick-off of 'Brigada Eskwela' (BE) for the school year of 2025 to 2026. About 1,500 Quezonian students, as well as locally in the National Capital Region (NCR), teachers, parents, local officials and community partners, who were participated in a community parade and clean-up drive to promote a safe and healthy learning environment for students, teachers and school personnel.
Citing from Philippines' Department of Education (DepEd) Memo #042 - Series of 2025, this year's BE carries the theme "Sama-sama Para sa Bayang Bumabasa", which highlights the spirit of Bayanihan and community collaboration.
The programme also includes a focus on ensuring that all schools are well-prepared for the new and upcoming school year by providing a clean, safe and conducive learning environment for both learners and teachers: "School is like a second home for our children, so it is crucial to protect their health and safety. Proper management of chemicals and waste must be an integral part of the school system to prevent harmful exposure to students and staff", said Thony Dizon, who is an Advocacy and Campaign Officer of the said environmental group.
BAN Toxics gave a short presentation on their Toxics-Free and Waste-Free Schools Programme (TFSP) and conducted screenings of paints, surfaces and cleaning materials on the school premises using an X-ray Fluorescent (XRF) handheld analyzer to ensure they are free from harmful toxic substances.
Antonio P. Miranda, School Principal of PBES agrees that collaborating with such organization as BAN Toxics plays an important role in supporting the well-being of students and teachers: "We greatly appreciate the support of BAN Toxics and other partners in helping our school provide a safe and healthy learning environment for everyone", Miranda said.
In late-July 2024 last year, BAN Toxics and PBES have joined forces to introduce the Toxics-Free and Waste-Free Schools Programme (TFSP), an awareness-raising and campaign initiative to pursue the goal of eliminating hazardous chemicals, ensuring good chemical and waste management practices, and establishing learning modules to safeguard students and faculty against hazardous substances in educational institutions. The programme also encourages zero-waste practices and supports the implementation of national policies on environmental awareness, chemical safety and sustainable school practices.
Meanwhile in our locals at Piapi High School (PHS)… Students, teachers and school personnel in 'Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental' have taken part in Brigada Eskwela to be cleaning up the whole school establishment as classes will start next week on Monday morning (June 16th, 2025). 'BAN Toxics' pointed out that programs such as the TFSP were add-ons to the DepEd initiatives in promoting safe and supportive learning environments. The group urges the Department to take further steps in ensuring a toxics-free and waste-free schools by embracing a more systemic approach to chemicals and waste management in all learning institutions.

BALITANG INTERNASYONAL: YouTuber's couple killed by an Online Streamer in Las Vegas [#OnlyOnDisneyXDNews]
(Written by Marco Ubaldo Diaz / West Coast Correspondent of Disney XD News)
TRIGGER WARNING: The following international news report contains graphic and disturbing act of violence. Reader's discretion is STRONGLY advised!!!
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Overnight sightseeing things at the strip walk turned more violent during a LIVE video-sharing broadcast as 41 y/o male suspected shooter named 'SinCity-MannyWise' known online as 'Mr. Manuel Diaz Ruiz' whose killed a small Arizonian independent streamer 'Finny da Legend' (real name 'Rodney Finley') and his wife 'Tanisha "Bubbly" Finley'.
During the pandemic years of Coronavirus Disease-19 (CoViD-19) around Q3 2023 onwards, a series of online and physical bullying, beefing in hot boiling water of anger between two (2) YouTubers arguing over public hate speech and harassment, as well the counter-dispute abuse of copyright infringements without any reason.
Finny Da Legend is a self-made YouTube personality who embarked on his digital independence on November 3rd, 2011 from Arizona. With his LIVE broadcasts and personal videos, he quickly became popular for real-time coverage that brings viewers into the fast-paced life of American cities, especially focusing on the lively scenes found in Las Vegas. Because his channel was not tailored to a niche, his subscriber count on YouTube went over 4,000 due to poor popularity and choosing the worst people on the internet.
Over time, Rodney's bold way of expressing his views has attracted a loyal following and also caused some controversy. Sometimes, his direct, unedited broadcasts have been at the center of major events, which have contributed to his reputation as a bold sense of modern life on the streets.
An on-demand streaming footage obtained exclusively to Disney XD News last Sunday night (June 8th, 2025 at 10:40pm -- Pacific local time), Ruiz aggressively opened fire at Rodney and Tanisha with his handgun 6 times near the fountains outside Bellagio Hotel and Casino in 'Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America'. Both of them died on the scene before 11pm, leaving Ruiz to go on foot to surrender at Henderson Police Station (HPS) and turn himself in as a potential self-defense a short time later.
Almost inspired in April 2018, 'Nasim Najafi Aghdam' shot herself on suicide because she failed to monetize problematic video content and shut their YouTube channel down, then headed over to its main headquarters in 'San Bruno, California' 5 days before the 3rd Season finale of American Disney cartoon show "Star vs. The Forces of Evil".
The man accused of killing a husband and wife on a busy sidewalk on the LVS appeared in court, considering strong video evidence to be shown by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD). YouTube has taken down their channel of 'SinCity-MannyWise', and is yet to release a statement of mourning.
'Finny Da Legend' remains up and running to pay tribute to its sightseeing of justice. 'Manuel Diaz Ruiz' was now taken in custody with two (2) counts of murder charges without bail and/or parole.
