GMA Network may find itself in hot water after Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III said the network may be held liable and penalized for the on-set injury that caused the death of veteran actor Eddie Garcia.

In an interview over CNN Philippines, Bello said there must be an Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) officer in every establishment to make the work place safe and compliant with health standards, as stated under the OSH Law.

The Occupational Safety and Health Center (OSHC) is already probing the accident.

“Iinspeksyunin nila kung tama ‘yung pagkahawak kay Mr. Eddie Garcia. Kung merong safety and health officer, baka nabigyan ng tamang treatment when he had that accident,” Bello told CNN Philippines.

Should GMA Network be found liable for any violation, the labor chief said the OSHC can file administrative charges against the network even without a complaint from Garcia’s family.

The network may be slapped with a monetary fine or “suspensions of operations”, depending on how grave the lapses were, Bello added.

The OSH law sets a maximum fine of P100,000 per day.

In a statement last June 10, GMA Network said it is looking into the absence of a medical team on the set.

On Thursday, the multi-awarded actor passed away at the Makati Medical Center after he suffered severe cervical fracture or broken neck.

Garcia sustained the fracture after he reportedly tripped and fell while shooting a television series in Tondo, Manila.

Garcia was cremated last Friday and the public viewing of his urn ended on Sunday.

Probing the Funds

While overseas, Seasoned Celebrity (SC) took the opportunity to hold a few shows to see if she could still attract the crowd. Of course, the reality is that SC belongs to an older generation and the young crowd abroad might no longer be familiar with her style. To address that possible issue, SC invited a Young Team of singers (YT) to attract the crowd.

The shows were successful and SC achieved her objective of regaining her recognition from the overseas audience. SC is such a talent that can never be turned down, but with the growing crop of new talents and genres, SC had to take the backseat. Other than performing, SC used the shows to appeal for donations for various causes to the audience.

SC shared stories of war-torn places in the country that needed funding and support from every possible source. The plight of the victims and the soldiers touched the hearts of the audience. The hat was passed and people donated whatever they could. The heart-wrenching numbers of YT softened the spot of the audience as well as opened their wallets.

When the producer turned over the accumulated donations a six-figure amount in foreign currency was given to SC. Upon reaching home, SC said she will turnover the amount to the agencies spearheading the operations. After some time, the Overseas Organizer (OO) asked for a receipt, as the major donors wanted to see where their generous amounts went.

SC did turn over the donations but there was a major problem. Allegedly, her receipts could only account for a very little portion of the amount turned over to her. Her subsequent excuse was that she misplaced the receipts and she gave donations to other non-government agencies. Unfortunately, OO could not fully buy the story and an investigation is allegedly underway to verify the story of SC. In case OO makes the story breaks into the press, the embarrassment would be a major one for SC, as many would speculate what she could have done with the alleged unaccounted-for donations.

Repost: Marian Rivera Says Taking Care of Baby Ziggy Comes Ahead of Working on Soaps for Now

At the renewal of her partnership with Kultura on Tuesday, Marian Rivera was asked if she is willing to star alongside with her husband Dingdong Dantes in the Filipino adaptation of the K-drama series "Descendants of the Sun."

According to Marian, she and Dong have actually talked about it but “to be honest, priority ko talagang alagaan si Ziggy. Mahirap para sa akin na iwan si Ziggy tapos mag-soap,” Marian told the press at the event.

For now, the Kapuso Primetime Queen said she has several endorsements to honor before going back to her shows in GMA.

“Endorsements muna ako. Tapos niyan, babalik ako unti-unti sa Tadhana tapos sa Sunday Pinasaya,” she said.

When asked if she would be willing to star with Dingdong on DOTS, she said “sa soap no ako ngayon. Pero malay after two months mag-yes ako so tignan ko.”

Marian's priority, she said, is to take care of her second son Baby Ziggy.

“Ako yung tipo ng nanay na hands-on. Kasi ayoko pagsisihan na wala ako doon habang lumalaki sila,” she said.

“Sabi ko nga kung tatanungin mo ko sa punto na ‘to I will say no talaga pero malay mo naman kung nilapitan ‘yung location,” she added.

She said it’s hard for her to choose since she is still busy taking care of her newborn Baby Ziggy.

“Ang hirap mamili kasi may newborn ako two months pa lang although baka naman pag na-adjust sabi ko nga ang hirap ng magsabi ng yes kaya ko hindi naman pala hindi naman binigay sakin ‘yon di naman sinabi na oo ikaw ‘to,” she said.

Marian shared that fans have been tagging her on videos of DOTS and that they have been telling her that she and Korean actor Song Hye-kyo have similarities.

“Sabi nila maganda yung kwento tapos nagkatuluyuan sila tapos yung babae may similarity daw sakin,” she added.

Marian’s renewal event with Kultura is her first public appearance after giving birth to her second son Baby Ziggy last April.

Dingdong will be starring in the Filipino adaptation of DOTS with Kapuso actors Rocco Nacino and Jasmine Curtis. His leading lady for the show is yet to be announced. — LA, GMA News
