00:04:24Welcome to our front page broadcast with Alejandra Forero,
00:04:28next up our segments.
00:04:32Colombian Consulate activates aid channels in
00:04:35Aruba, fuel prices increase on
00:04:38the island. Colombia continues rescue
00:04:42efforts after earthquake, solidarity and
00:04:45rescue after the earthquakes in different cities like these in
00:04:49Cali. At this time and every day, it is my
00:04:53pleasure to greet our viewers, always extending a
00:04:56warm welcome to our front page broadcast with
00:05:00Alejandra Forero. With great pleasure we greet you every
00:05:03day, you who are always tuned in to Front Page with
00:05:07Alejandra Forero. We always start with local news and this
00:05:10time with what was indicated recently by the Colombian
00:05:14Consulate in Aruba. First, they emphatically
00:05:17thank all the people, entities,
00:05:20organizations that have come forward to help Colombians with this
00:05:24earthquake. However, they made it very clear that
00:05:27aid is directly related to the Colombian
00:05:31Red Cross and they provide information on how and where to
00:05:34donate. The Colombian consulate
00:05:38here in Aruba provides a summary of the information aimed at
00:05:41Colombian citizens residing on the island. The
00:05:45consulate reports that the Colombian authorities continue with the
00:05:49assessment of damages and attention to cases
00:05:52due to the emergency after the 7.4 magnitude earthquake
00:05:55and its aftershocks that occurred last Monday and have
00:05:59especially affected the departments of Valle del Cauca, Choco,
00:06:03Rissaralda, Caldas, and Antioquia. Regarding
00:06:06inquiries from people residing in Aruba who wish
00:06:10to locate or establish contact with family and loved ones in
00:06:14Colombia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reports that the
00:06:17channel enabled for making these requests
00:06:20is the Colombian Red Cross. The email is
00:06:24RCF@cruzrojacolombiana.org
00:06:29also to WhatsApp. + 57
00:06:32321 213
00:06:349525. It is recommended to keep in mind that
00:06:37communications may be affected in some of the most
00:06:41impacted areas, so reestablishing contact could
00:06:44take some time. Likewise, the consulate
00:06:47expresses its profound gratitude for the expressions of
00:06:51solidarity and the offers of aid received
00:06:54in Aruba. Individuals or organizations interested in
00:06:58making donations must do so exclusively through
00:07:02the official channel of the Colombian Red Cross. The Consulate of
00:07:05Colombia in Aruba emphasizes that it is not authorized to
00:07:09directly receive money, goods, or donations.
00:07:13Colombian authorities continue to assess the needs
00:07:16arising from the emergency and if necessary
00:07:19will report on it through official channels. The
00:07:23consulate expresses its sincere gratitude to the government and the
00:07:27people, to the consular corps, as well as to the
00:07:31institutions, organizations and citizens who have
00:07:34expressed their solidarity and affection towards Colombia and the
00:07:38affected families. Colombia deeply appreciates these efforts.
00:07:46Changing topics, Minister Wendrick Cecilia, Minister of
00:07:49Tourism, recently granted an interview to our colleagues at
00:07:53Telenoticia to discuss his stance on the issue of
00:07:57e-scooters or these electric scooters, knowing that
00:08:00most tourists use this type of
00:08:03vehicles.
00:10:55every Wednesday of every month, oil prices fluctuate,
00:10:58depending on crude oil internationally, and
00:11:02as of today, Wednesday, August 2nd, they
00:11:04went up again.
00:11:06The information about a possible significant increase in gasoline
00:11:10prices had already been felt and announced. This is surely
00:11:14not very positive news for all drivers, as it will
00:11:17represent an additional expense in the family budget. The
00:11:21Department of Economic Affairs confirmed the
00:11:25news yesterday. Over the past year, fuel
00:11:28prices have registered more increases than reductions
00:11:31due to various global problems
00:11:34that have affected prices. According to the
00:11:37report from the Ministry of Finance, Economic Affairs and
00:11:40Primary Sector, the new retail prices for
00:11:44fuels, which came into effect today, Wednesday, August
00:11:4812, are as follows: Gasoline will be at
00:11:52290.9 cents per liter, an
00:11:55increase of 25.1
00:11:57cents. Diesel
00:11:59will be at
00:12:02286.3 cents per liter, an increase
00:12:05of 29.7 cents, and kerosene
00:12:08is now 256 cents per liter, an increase
00:12:12of 19.4 cents. In this context, it is worth
00:12:16noting that most vehicles in Aruba that run on
00:12:19gasoline will now have to pay more.
00:12:25We begin our international round. Indeed, in
00:12:28Colombia, despite it being day three after this
00:12:32regrettable 7.4 magnitude earthquake that
00:12:35affected several important cities, rescuers are
00:12:39still under the rubble there,
00:12:42trying to escape with their lives.
00:12:45The hours have been endless for the relief organizations that at this time in the
00:12:49capital of the department of Risaralda continue to carry out
00:12:52search efforts for some victims and some people
00:12:56who apparently are alive, where about 86 buildings
00:12:59collapsed in the central area of the city of Pereira. It will be
00:13:03determined in the coming hours which buildings must be
00:13:07completely demolished to be able to restore electricity service, which is
00:13:10not available in the capital of the department of Risaralda in about
00:13:1480% of the city. There is no water
00:13:17service in about 22%. Cell phone service is only
00:13:21working at 10% and there is no gas service, which is why
00:13:25at this hour there is a food crisis. There is nowhere to
00:13:28cook, no one to sell food because
00:13:32restaurants are closed, and so are supermarkets because they have to check the
00:13:35structures, most of which were affected. So there is no
00:13:39way to get food or
00:13:43the neighborhoods are needing is food
00:13:46aid, water and some drinks that can
00:13:50help them get through the night. Families are practically spending the
00:13:54night outside their homes hoping that nothing
00:13:57else happens, but also watching over the little that remained in some of
00:14:01them. The police have assigned a special squadron to the
00:14:04city center and some neighborhoods and the army is permanently
00:14:08deployed, especially at night, guarding and
00:14:12protecting businesses because many of the affected shopping centers
00:14:15have all their products and items in these places and it has
00:14:19not been possible to enter to retrieve them. It is
00:14:22expected that with the visit of the President of the Republic to the hospital of
00:14:25the department of Risaralda, the first aid will arrive, because there is
00:14:29also a very serious problem: the hospitals were completely
00:14:32affected, health centers and clinics. That is to
00:14:35say, at this time in San Jorge Hospital, out of 10 operating rooms, only
00:14:39two are operating and there are no supplies, no water
00:14:43and in some clinics there is no electricity or means to activate the
00:14:47generators so that some places can be activated
00:14:50to operate on people who suffered fractures or have some type of problem
00:14:54and need urgent surgery.
00:14:57Changing topics, President Abelardo de la Espriella announced
00:15:01various reliefs and also announced the plan that is
00:15:04coming for Colombians, not only in the next 3
00:15:07months, but also in the next 12 months for
00:15:11the situation that has arisen after the
00:15:13earthquake.
00:15:17I have given precise instructions to the Minister of
00:15:20Housing to
00:15:24decree economic relief in public
00:15:28services for all those affected in
00:15:31Risaralda for 3 months. We are
00:15:34going to conduct that census and grant that possibility
00:15:38so that people can have a
00:15:41respite in the midst of this tragedy. My heart ached
00:15:45when I passed through the center of Pereira and saw all those businesses
00:15:49destroyed. We have to, Madam Vice Minister who is
00:15:52here, do whatever is necessary within the framework of the law that
00:15:56authorizes us so that these affected people
00:15:59have relief in terms of paying for those public services, all
00:16:03public services for 3 months for all
00:16:07Risaraldenses. Second, we are
00:16:10currently structuring the
00:16:13rent subsidy
00:16:16program for people who lost their
00:16:20homes. We need to conduct that census
00:16:23to characterize those homes to proceed accordingly
00:16:26and provide those people with a subsidy so they can
00:16:30move. It is likely that as the hours
00:16:32pass, the night is the hardest, first
00:16:36because there is no electricity in some of the main cities
00:16:40and second because the anxiety begins to fall even more
00:16:44on the families who lost everything during this
00:16:47earthquake.
00:16:52With tents, sheets, chairs and the light of a desolate
00:16:55night, dozens of people from Cali spent the hours
00:16:59after the earthquake that shook Colombia.
00:17:01Some lost
00:17:04everything, others didn't know
00:17:07what was left of their homes, but almost
00:17:11all shared the same fear, that an aftershock
00:17:14would finish demolishing what the earthquake had left
00:17:18standing. Our apartment was destroyed, the entire building
00:17:21is destroyed, it cannot be, it cannot be
00:17:25inhabited, it cannot be entered, and while some tried to
00:17:28assimilate the loss, others traveled kilometers with a
00:17:32single idea, to find their loved ones. Don Javier
00:17:36Lenis drove for...
00:17:4310 hours from Envigado to Cali, he wasn't looking for his belongings, he was looking for his mother, a 66-year-old
00:17:45woman who had been trapped in a four-story building
00:17:49in the Cuarto de Legua neighborhood south of the
00:17:53city. Upon arriving at the place, he found the
00:17:56building completely collapsed.
00:18:00Uh, the only thing that happened was to come immediately, there was nothing
00:18:04else to do. By car, by car, I came by car with my girlfriend. We
00:18:07came immediately from Envigado and on the
00:18:10way, obviously listening to news, everything that was
00:18:14happening, stopping to try to buy water. She is
00:18:1766 years old, she has been living alone for some time. Uh, my mom
00:18:21lives on the first floor of the building. Uh,
00:18:25basically we are waiting to find some kind of sign. In the
00:18:29streets, the pain turned into a force, hands that had
00:18:32never lifted a wall began to remove pieces of
00:18:36concrete. People who didn't know each other yesterday
00:18:39organized to help, then the most
00:18:43difficult moment arrived. Everyone fell silent.
00:18:46Rescuers asked for silence, tools
00:18:49stopped, no one spoke. For a few
00:18:52seconds, Cali seemed to hold its breath
00:18:56to hear a voice among the
00:18:58rubble. We are here
00:19:01rescuing, trying to
00:19:03get people out, because it's an impressive thing.
00:19:08We went and did what we could do, which was to bring several
00:19:11of the tools that are there
00:19:14and we brought that equipment and
00:19:18came to help. A while ago there were more than 300 people here from
00:19:21all over Cali. Go, go. To this
00:19:24race against time, firefighters and specialized teams who
00:19:28arrived from different parts of the country joined. There are more than
00:19:321,300 people working in the capital of the
00:19:35valley with their eyes set on the most affected sectors:
00:19:39Tequendama, El Refugio, Ciudad Capri, and Cuarto de
00:19:42Legua. There, every minute counts, every
00:19:46centimeter removed can open the way to a story that is not yet
00:19:50over. Well, we have some technological equipment that has
00:19:53given us two markings at this moment. We have one
00:19:56here in the front part and another in the back. We
00:20:00at civil aeronautics have a very well-equipped
00:20:04rescue unit. We have
00:20:07public equipment, illumination balloons, equipment for dangerous materials, because
00:20:11normally we have spills, leaks,
00:20:15as we know, Cali is one of the cities in Colombia that has excellent
00:20:18medical service, and many clinics are
00:20:22sent patients from various countries worldwide to
00:20:26receive medical attention. Well, when the earthquake
00:20:29occurred, they literally had to leave the buildings,
00:20:33patients, doctors, and others were
00:20:35evacuated. It was at
00:20:387:34 in the
00:20:39morning,
00:20:46the Colombian Geological Service reported an earthquake with a
00:20:50magnitude of 7.4 and a depth of 96
00:20:54km. The epicenter was located in San José del
00:20:57Palmar, in Choco. In Cali, the tremor generated some of the
00:21:01most shocking images.
00:21:13Between fear and anguish, many people left their homes and
00:21:16workplaces. Meanwhile, at the university
00:21:20hospital of Valle, patients and medical staff had to
00:21:23continue care outside
00:21:27movement of the earth was still felt. From the
00:21:31highest areas of Cali, the magnitude of the emergency was even
00:21:34more exposed. The images allowed us to gauge the impact
00:21:38of the earthquake and the damages it left in its
00:21:41wake. In sectors such as La Alameda, in the very center of the
00:21:44city, relief organizations worked against the clock after
00:21:48the collapse of one.
00:21:50Emergency teams searched through the rubble for people who
00:21:54remained trapped and focused their efforts on
00:21:58achieving their rescue. But the impact was not only in the
00:22:03movement was also strongly felt in municipalities such as
00:22:06Palmira, Buga, Cartago and Buenaventura, where the
00:22:10authorities are advancing in the assessment of damages, and the
00:22:13emergency has already left mortal victims, among
00:22:16them minors. The department of Valle del
00:22:20Cauca, without Cali, we have more or less 27 deceased
00:22:23people, uh, the most painful, three, four
00:22:27children, three in Calima de Arién, one
00:22:30in Yumbo, and there is another girl who is very,
00:22:34very, very seriously injured. Uh, we have
00:22:37destruction of houses and buildings
00:22:40in all municipalities of Valle del Cauca. In El Cairo,
00:22:4380% of El Cairo is
00:22:47destroyed. The mayor of Cali, Alejandro
00:22:51Eder, reported that there are at least 20 collapsed structures
00:22:56relief agencies are working at different points in the
00:23:00city. We'll go to our commercial break, but we'll be
00:23:03back with more information.
00:23:55Our story was built by people, neighbors helping
00:23:59neighbors, standing side by side with those who trust
00:24:02us to protect what matters most and help build our
00:24:06communities, being there when needed
00:24:09most, across
00:24:11borders, across
00:24:13generations,
00:24:16still growing, still giving, still...
00:24:20just getting started after 185 years.

00:26:20We continue with more information through First
00:26:23Page. As we know, technology is constantly
00:26:27advancing, and today we are going to show you a mattress that is
00:26:31special for those people who, perhaps in their old age, cannot
00:26:34control their urinary or fecal functions well.
00:26:38Today on First Page we talk about your health so take
00:26:41care of it.
00:26:50It was because of a disc surgery years ago that
00:26:53made José Luis Martínez think and come up with the idea of
00:26:56designing and creating a mattress with a system that
00:26:59patients could use to relieve their
00:27:03biological needs without having to get out of bed. That's
00:27:07where the mattress with the sanitary urinal
00:27:10system was born. Being in the hospital, I found myself in difficult
00:27:14situations where, well, every time I had to go to the bathroom
00:27:18to shower or had to relieve my biological needs,
00:27:22I had to carry the monitors connected. But there are those who
00:27:26don't have family, who don't have anyone to assist them,
00:27:28so those people suffer from
00:27:32ulcers and suffer from many things, many needs, an
00:27:36accidental
00:27:39bed. So he took on the task of creating the plans and the
00:27:43design that could adapt to any mattress. It
00:27:47already provides the area to place the waste
00:27:51system. You remove the cushion and
00:27:55put in the spacer. The function of the spacer is to
00:27:58prevent the mattress from compressing with the
00:28:02weight of the people, because if it compresses, we have an accident
00:28:05there. This also at the same time
00:28:08turns, in case the patient wants to do it sitting
00:28:12with their feet to the side, see? So underneath,
00:28:16this has this which is the
00:28:19reservoir where the waste falls, where the
00:28:22solids fall, where the fluids fall.
00:28:25This has a chest bar as we can see here to prevent the
00:28:29odors from rising. The
00:28:33odors stay there. This disconnects
00:28:36below the tank.
00:28:39This is like a hose that goes connected here and you
00:28:43take out the clean it with your
00:28:44lid.
00:28:50In our most viral section, we present these two young
00:28:54Spaniards who have traveled from France to Africa on
00:28:57scooters, and apparently, according to what they indicate, they would have committed
00:29:01several infractions that they will have to pay
00:29:03fines for.
00:29:06Two TikTokers began their journey on a stunt
00:29:10scooter and, according to local media, they had already
00:29:13committed several traffic violations during the trip.
00:29:16Recently, these two young Spaniards went viral
00:29:19for doing an extreme challenge. Traveling from
00:29:22France to Morocco on a scooter. Gorka
00:29:26Lasa and Evai Martín are two TikTokers
00:29:29specialized in the culture known as "scooter," which
00:29:33is a stunt scooter, and who share challenges through their
00:29:36TikTok. Last year, the young people traveled more than 1
00:29:39km from the city of San Sebastián to
00:29:42Paris. However, they wanted to make the journey much longer; they wanted
00:29:46to go from the French border to Morocco on
00:29:49a scooter. A minor detail is that the vehicle is not
00:29:53electric, which implies constant muscular
00:29:56effort. In the videos published on social networks, it can be seen that the
00:29:59influencers have traveled dangerous and unauthorized
00:30:03streets for this type of vehicle, crossing through
