Maki Pulido

Maria Judea "Maki" Jimenez Pulido-Ilagan (Tagalog: [hiˈmɛnɛs puˈlɪdɔ]; born May 20, 1972) is a Filipino journalist and one of the two hosts of Reporter's Notebook, a current affairs programme on the Philippines terrestrial television channel GMA Network with Jiggy Manicad (now replaced by Jun Veneracion).

Pulido was an anchor for the afternoon daily newscast on GMA News TV entitled Balita Pilipinas Ngayon, alongside Mark Salazar.

At the close of the Subic rape trial in December 2006, Pulido was again running in her effort to deliver the latest on the convicted US Marine as he was brought to the detention center, amid pressure from the foreigner's security escorts.

Her in-depth report on Filipinos who illegally enter Malaysia through the country's “Backdoor" won the Silver Screen Award at the 2005 US International Film and Video Festival.

She has also had the honor of having two of her stories, “Batang Kargador" (Child Haulers) and “Sex Slaves" named Finalists at the New York Film Festival.
