Una Ka BAI!: Una sa Balita[1] (lit. You're First, My Friend: First in the News in English, and Una Ka Kaibigan: Una sa Balita in Filipino), also known as Una Ka BAI!: Balita At Iba pa was a morning news program aired on GMA Davao, patterned from GMA's national morning show Unang Hirit. The program was premiered in October 8, 2007 alongside Arangkada of GMA Iloilo/GMA Bacolod and aired together with Primera Balita of GMA Dagupan and Buena Mano Balita of GMA Cebu. The program preempts Unang Hirit's 2nd hour (around 6:00 to 7:00am) block.
The program registered an increase of 2.1 percent from 6.6 percent in October to 8.7 in partial November 2013 based on monthly data from ratings service provider Nielsen TV Audience Measurement.[2]
Without saying goodbyes after 7 years, it had their final broadcast last April 24, 2015, as part of the streamlining of regional operations of GMA, after the broadcast, the on-air staff of the program were retrenched by the network's management.[3][4]
