Biyaheng 2010: The GMA News and Public Affairs Yearend Special
Episode on December 27. 2009 Sunday night on SNBO, after Show Me Da Manny 10:45 PM 
As the year 2009 ends, another journey for our country begins. This December 27, the GMA News and Public Affairs Department takes us on a trip that would not just look back at the events that shaped the nation for the last 12 months but also bring us forward to a future anchored on the 2010 presidential elections. Premier broadcast journalists Jessica Soho and Arnold Clavio take us to one exciting journey through history in “Biyaheng 2010: The GMA News and Public Affairs Yearend Special." 2009 has been an eventful year for the Philippines. There were victories and triumphs, but there were also calamities, crimes and deaths, in addition to our unpredictable political scenario. Within just two months, the whole of Luzon was submerged under water as Typhoons Ondoy, Pepeng and Santi went on full speed and devastated thousands of lives. Shocking crimes also transpired from all corners of the country, including the gruesome Maguindanao Massacre wherein 57 innocent civilians were killed, more than half of which were journalists. Several iconic personalities also made the headlines this year with their sudden demise, including former president and democracy icon Corazon Aquino, Master Rapper Francis Magalona, King of Pop Michael Jackson and Iglesia ni Kristo’s influential leader Ka Erdy Manalo. As always, Philippine politics is as riotous as traffic in Manila. With the coming 2010 elections, politicians go counter-flow with their alliances, jumping from one political party to another and making the political scene a war arena. However, despite these “road blocks," heroic acts and memorable triumphs still uplifted our spirit and pushed us to continue moving forward. Efren Penaflorida Jr. gave honor to the country when he was chosen as CNN’s Hero of the Year for his pushcart classroom project. Muelmar Magallanes, who lost his own life after braving the rampaging floods to save lives during the Ondoy onslaught, was hailed as one of Time Magazine’s Top 10 Heroes of the Year. Pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao became a boxing legend when he achieved his 7th boxing title after winning back-to-back victories against Ricky Hatton and Miguel Cotto. Almost a dozen Filipino boxers also emerged as winners in their boxing fights, making this year the country’s Golden Age for boxing. But with all the events that happened in 2009, the question still remains: what is in store for us in 2010? Join award-winning journalists Jessica Soho and Arnold Clavio as they revisit the past and relate it to our country’s future through the 2010 Elections in “Biyaheng 2010: The GMA News and Public Affairs Special," airing this December 27, 2009 at 10:45 PM (SNBO Timeslot) over GMA-7.
Sa pagtatapos ng unang dekada ng milenyo, isang makasaysayang paglalakbay ang tatahakin ng GMA News and Public Affairs bilang paghahanda sa parating na eleksyon sa taong 2010. Sabay-sabay tayong mag-round trip pabalik sa masalimuot, pasikot-sikot at malubak na rutang dinaanan ng ating bansa sa taong 2009 at ating pag-usapan kung dire-diretso na ba ang ating biyahe o baku-bako pa rin ang daang ating haharapin sa susunod na taon nang dahil sa Eleksyon 2010. Kasama ang mga premyadong broadcast journalists na sina Jessica Soho at Arnold Clavio, sumakay na at bagtasin ang “Biyaheng 2010: The GMA News and Public Affairs Yearend Special." Naging mapait ang singil ng kalikasan sa pagharurot nina Ondoy, Pepeng at marami pang bagyong kumitil at sumira sa buhay ng libu-libong Pilipino. Hindi rin nawala ang kaliwa’t kanang krimen tulad ng kidnapping, murder, robbery, gaya ng pagpatay sa mahigit limampu’t pitong inosenteng sibilyan, na kinabibilangan ng maraming mamahayag, sa karumal-dumal na masaker sa Maguindanao. Sa pulitika, buhol-buhol ang mga isyu at kontrobersiyang pumutakti sa pamahalaan at sa papalapit na Eleksyon 2010. Ilang malalaking personalidad din ang sumakabilang buhay, gaya ng democracy icon na si dating Pangulong Cory Aquino, ang Master Rapper na si Francis Magalona, ang King of Pop na si Michael Jackson at ang haligi ng Iglesya ni Kristo na si Ka Erdy Manalo. Ilan lamang ang mga pangyayaring ito sa mga bahagyang nagpatirik sa ating tibay at katatagan bilang isang bayan ngayong 2009. Pero sa kabila ng lahat ng ito, may mga bagay pa ring muling nagpaarangkada sa ating bansa at nagbigay ng mga karangalan at panibagong pag-asa. Ang hindi matatawarang kabayanihan ng mga Pilipinong tumulong sa gitna ng matitinding unos, ang pagkahirang kay Efren Penaflorida bilang CNN Hero of the Year at ang pagsungkit ng Pambansang Kamao na si Manny Pacquiao ng kanyang ikapitong titulo, kasabay ng pagkapanalo rin ng marami pang boksingero ang ilan sa napakaraming tagumpay na nakamit natin. Isang dahilan para sabihing sa gitna ng mga hindi kanais-nais na nangyari ngayong 2009, masarap pa rin sabihing ikinararangal pa rin nating maging Pilipino. Pero sa kabila ng mga tagumpay at problemang kinaharap natin, may magagawa kaya ang Eleksyon 2010 para magdala ng pagbabago sa bansa nating tila naghihingalo? Mag-U-turn sa nakaraan at humarurot patungo sa ating hinaharap kasama sina Jessica Soho at Arnold Clavio sa “Biyaheng 2010: The GMA News and Public Affairs Special," ngayong Disyembre 27, 2009, sa SNBO, 10:45PM sa GMA-7.
