00:00This is Pacific Coastal Center.
00:1224 Hours.
00:26Good evening Zon Visayas and Mindanao.
00:28Confirmed deaths have increased to 14 because of the next wave of typhoons Buchoy and Carina,
00:36which intensified in Hanging Habagat.
00:39Not included in that list is the crew member who was hit by a motor tanker in Bataan.
00:47In addition to the widespread oil spill,
00:51the tanker contained 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel oil.
00:55Raffi Tima has the story.
01:01It was dark, but the Philippine Coast Guard caught sight of it.
01:04A motor tanker slowly sank into the sea early in the morning.
01:09It happened at Lamau Point in Lemay, Bataan, while the MT Terra Nova was on its way to Iloilo.
01:15The PCG immediately responded to rescue 17 crew members,
01:19but only 16 of them were rescued,
01:21and four of them needed additional medical assistance.
01:26One of them was missing.
01:28No one was found by the authorities earlier this afternoon.
01:31The PCG also conducted an aerial survey as part of their oil spill response operations.
01:36The sunken tanker contained 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel oil.
01:41An oil spill 5.6 nautical miles east of Lamau Point has been monitored.
01:46The PCG is helping oil spill response organizations
01:49to stop the oil spill.
01:52For GMA Integrated News, Raffi Tima has the story.
01:5524 Hours.
01:57Some places in Camanava are still submerged in the sea
02:01due to the high tide.
02:03In a river in Malabon, a man's boat sank.
02:07The story is live.
02:09Ian Cruz, Ian.
02:13Yes, Emil.
02:14The problems in Camanava are getting worse.
02:20Some of our countrymen are not only having problems with their food and water,
02:25but also their communication,
02:27because their cellphones are low-bat
02:29because there's no electricity for several days.
02:35The flood has been going on for several days here in Tanza, in Nabotas.
02:39That's why those who are staying in the submerged houses
02:42have run out of supplies.
02:44We don't have food.
02:46We can't buy rice.
02:48The stores are closed.
02:50Because the water is reaching other parts of the barangay,
02:54there's still no electricity in the area.
02:56That's why many are having problems.
02:58Their cellphones are low-bat.
03:00It's very difficult.
03:02We can't contact our relatives in Malayo
03:04so that we can get help.
03:07Kapuso, we are here in Tanza, in Nabotas.
03:10We can see that the residents here are still affected by the flood.
03:15They are riding a boat to go to the market,
03:21to their homes.
03:24How many people are riding the boat?
03:27Only 30.
03:29That's why those who can't fish
03:32have to ride a boat to earn money.
03:35We can't go to the sea.
03:37The waves are big.
03:38That's why we are here in the flood.
03:40We can only get rice.
03:43The submerged houses are adjusting.
03:49Ruel Ramos is watching from a gaming chair
03:53the stove to cook food.
03:57I can't eat anymore.
03:59I'm hungry.
04:01That's life.
04:03It was high tide earlier,
04:05so instead of flooding, the water level rose.
04:08In the neighboring city of Malabon,
04:11the water level is still low,
04:13especially in the center,
04:15from the area of Palenque and Puntuhan,
04:17as well as in the barangay Taniong
04:19and neighboring barangay Longos and Tonsuya.
04:22Like this woman whose bag is still burnt
04:25so that she can go home from a long trip.
04:28Are you from the province?
04:30I'm from Cebu.
04:32I'm from Cebu.
04:34This man is from Baha ng Alakal.
04:36I'm from Baha ng Alakal.
04:38I'm from Baha ng Alakal.
04:40Why?
04:42Because the other rich people,
04:44the plastic that they throw away,
04:46they can't get it back.
04:48The old fishing boats
04:50are now used to transport passengers.
04:53Other residents are also blaming
04:56the damaged navigational gate
04:58in the nearby Navotas
05:00for the rising water level.
05:02That's a flood gate.
05:04You have to control the high tide.
05:06You have to control the high tide.
05:08A man's body
05:10was found floating in the river
05:12in barangay Taniong.
05:14He was immediately rescued by the rescue team.
05:17In the city of Valenzuela,
05:19the residents in the areas
05:21where the flood hit
05:22cleaned their own bodies.
05:29You know, Emil,
05:31here in Malabon,
05:33this is their main road
05:34to their city hall
05:36and to their hospital.
05:38The water level is still high here.
05:40Actually, Emil,
05:42there's an ambulance here
05:44that can't continue.
05:46There are passengers who were hit
05:48or injured.
05:50They can't continue here
05:52because the ambulance is low
05:54and can't cross this area.
05:56The water level is low
05:58and the residents here
06:00are hoping that
06:02the rain will stop
06:04and that their lives
06:06will return to normal
06:08here in Malabon.
06:10Back to you, Emil.
06:12Thank you very much, Ian Cruz.

07:16Then we went to check
07:18our tickets
07:20and they said
07:22that our flight was canceled.
07:24I said,
07:26where are we going?
07:28They told us to book a flight.
07:30Fortunately,
07:32they have a picnic
07:34in the departure area
07:36with other stranded passengers.
07:38Those are my new friends.
07:40There were a lot of them.
07:42Last night,
07:44they brought me coffee,
07:46bread,
07:48and donuts.
07:50I couldn't sleep.
07:52It was cold
07:54and noisy.
07:56You're old
07:58and you don't like noise.
08:00The OFWs
08:02are more comfortable
08:04and have free food.
08:06But other passengers
08:08have their own cartons

08:57But please remind the passengers
08:59to check your airlines
09:01Thank you very much,

09:05Let's check the status
09:07of the women who were born
09:09in the middle of the flood yesterday
09:11and the passengers who were
09:13stuck in the deep flood.
09:15Mark Salazar is watching.
09:21This video was taken
09:23by one of the passengers
09:25inside the bus.
09:27The passengers were stuck
09:28inside the bus on
09:30Marissa Avenue,
09:32in Barangay Tatalon,
09:34in Quezon City yesterday.
09:37The water reached
09:39the roof of the bus
09:41and half of it was submerged.
09:43According to one passenger,
09:45some of the passengers
09:47got out of the bus
09:49and tried to get out.
09:51Later, residents came
09:53and helped them get out.
09:54Wait, wait.
09:57They were then
09:59on a boat to get out.
10:01It took them
10:03half an hour
10:05to get out of the bus.
10:07We're alive!
10:09We're alive!
10:11The flood
10:13that flooded many places
10:15in Manila
10:17may have been left in the garbage.
10:19It can be seen
10:21on the 10 feet high
10:22plastic trees.
10:24This tree is 15 feet high
10:26and it's full of garbage.
10:28But on the inner roads,
10:30you can see
10:32the floor left by the flood.
10:34Most of the houses
10:36in Don Pepe Street
10:38have no other equipment
10:40because of the high water level
10:42until 6 in the morning yesterday.
10:44I didn't expect it to be that high.
10:46It's too high, sir.
10:48They're still busy cleaning
10:50so they haven't thought
10:52about entering the city.
10:54That's what we're thinking
10:56but fortunately,
10:58we can't travel
11:00because we have to clean first.
11:02Motorcycles are the main means
11:04for the residents of Maria Clara
11:06and all of them
11:08were flooded by the flood.
11:10It's good that there are neighbors
11:12who will gather the most important
11:14items for them.
11:16It's up to them
11:18how much they can give.
11:20This is the San Juan River
11:22in Calayan, Quezon City
11:24at 6 in the morning.
11:27It's the time
11:29when Micaela Bravo is still giving birth.
11:31Because at 4 in the morning,
11:33I told her grandmother
11:35that the child is sick
11:37and there's no flood yet.
11:39Her grandmother said
11:41there's no flood yet.
11:43That's why
11:45at 5 or 6 in the morning,
11:47the house was flooded.
11:49We couldn't take the child
11:50to the hospital.
11:52Micaela is now in a good condition
11:54and is on her way back to the hospital
11:56with her baby boy
11:58whose name is David Esther.
12:00If Micaela will give birth
12:02because of the flood,
12:04the fight against the flood
12:06will be fierce.
12:08They didn't expect
12:10the fast rising of the water
12:12in the San Juan River.
12:14There's no flood yet.
12:16It's about to come.
12:18We evacuated.
12:20For GMA Integrated News,
12:22Mark Salazar
12:24for 24 Hours.
12:27The Office of the Vice President
12:29confirmed that
12:31Vice President Sara Duterte
12:33and her family
12:35are safe from the flood
12:37of Carina and Habagag.
12:39According to reports,
12:41she flew to Germany yesterday
12:43early in the morning
12:45with her husband,
12:47children and mother.
12:48She told the OVP
12:50that it's unfortunate
12:52that her trip was hit
12:54by the flood.
12:56It's a personal trip
12:58with her family
13:00and she has permission
13:02to leave.
13:04The Office of the President
13:06and Travel Authority
13:08issued a petition on July 9.
13:10The OVP is always ready
13:12to help families
13:14affected by calamity.
13:15The disaster responders
13:17in Barangay Manresa, Quezon City
13:19have relief bags
13:21for the 300 families evacuated.
13:24Classes will be canceled
13:26on Monday
13:28according to Education Secretary
13:30Sonny Angarang.
13:32There are a lot of classes
13:34that need to be cleaned
13:36due to the widespread flooding.
13:38Tomorrow, the list of classes
13:40will be suspended.
13:42If not,
13:43schools in affected areas
13:45will be forced to open
13:47classes on Monday.
13:54Good evening Kapuso!
13:56Our Kapuso Navy Reservist
13:58is one of many
14:00to provide relief goods
14:02to the GMA Kapuso Foundation
14:04in Marikina.
14:06And not only that,
14:08a portion of the money
14:10will be diverted
14:11to the GMA Kapuso Foundation
14:13in Marikina
14:15to help the families
14:17affected by the flood.
14:19May I report,
14:21this is Larson Tiago.
14:23Their uniforms
14:25were worn
14:27as Navy Reservists.
14:29They arrived in
14:31Rokonasino
14:33and Miss Universe Philippines
14:352021
14:37Beatriz Luigi Gomez
14:39at Malanday Elementary School
14:41in Marikina
14:43to help the families
14:45affected by the flood.
14:47Automatically,
14:49Roko and Beatriz
14:51will help
14:53in times like these.
14:55These are the things
14:57we do as Reservists.
14:59One of the few things
15:01we do as Reservists
15:03is to help
15:05the GMA Kapuso Foundation
15:07in Marikina.
15:09It's like we're
15:11helping them
15:13but to see their situation
15:15here,
15:17we are more eager
15:19to help.
15:21Personally,
15:23I experienced this
15:25in 2021
15:27during Odette.
15:29So I know what it feels like.
15:31When we were called
15:33that our country needs help,
15:35I didn't hesitate.
15:37Dong also went
15:39to Barangay Taniong
15:41to meet the President
15:43and COO,
15:45Rike Escudero-Catibob.
15:47They shared their joy
15:49and pride.
15:51I'm very, very proud
15:53of all of them
15:55because kindness
15:57is the new wealth
15:59and it is very important
16:01to use
16:03celebrity for charity.
16:05The GMA Kapuso Foundation
16:07is also grateful
16:09for the importance
16:11of helping
16:13those affected
16:15by the typhoon
16:17and flood.
16:19When this happened,
16:21Ma'am Annette Gozon
16:23called up and said,
16:25Rike, let's divert
16:27the money we raised
16:29from the very successful
16:31GMA Gala last Saturday.
16:33So,
16:35less than a week,
16:37we will divert
16:39for those affected
16:41by the typhoon.
16:43How was the experience
16:45of Nading Dong,
16:47Roco, and Beatriz
16:49during the unceasing rain
16:51yesterday?
16:53Thank God, it's okay.
16:55It's just sad that
16:57some are not okay.
16:59I hope this ends
17:01for them as soon as possible.
17:03It's okay for us
17:05in Antipolo.
17:07The wind is strong
17:09but I can't go down.
17:11We were just fortunate
17:13that we are far from the area
17:15and we live in a high place.
17:17But it's really sad
17:19for those who were affected.
17:21For GMA Integrated News,
17:23RR Santiago
17:25has been on air
17:27for 24 hours.
17:29Let's update
17:31on the sinking of a motor tanker
17:33in Bataan.
17:35DNR is now
17:37knowing the exact location
17:39of the tanker.
17:41Raffi Tima
17:43has been on air
17:45for 24 hours
17:47for the last 24 hours.
17:49Raffi?
17:52Maris, although
17:54we saw an oil slick
17:56in the area where
17:58the Terranova sank,
18:00it doesn't mean
18:02that the tanker is gone.
18:04And before this happens,
18:06the authorities here
18:08want the tanker
18:09to be evacuated.
18:12According to the owner of the ship,
18:14Port Havaga Ship Management,
18:16they were scheduled to leave
18:18Bataan on July 22,
18:20but the Coast Guard stopped them.
18:22The next day,
18:24they were allowed to leave.
18:26But when they arrived in Nasugbu,
18:28they were hit by strong winds
18:30and strong currents.
18:32The ship tried to leave
18:34before deciding to return to Limay.
18:36At 11.30 p.m.,
18:37the ship slowly turned around
18:39and they asked for help
18:41from the PCG.
18:43We tried to get help
18:45from the owner of the ship.
18:47DNR Secretary Maria Antonia Yulo-Loyzaga
18:49immediately went to Bataan
18:51to personally find out
18:53the condition of the sinking oil tanker.
18:55For now,
18:57they are looking for its exact location
18:59under water.
19:01I need to know
19:03where it is now
19:05and what state it is in
19:07so that we can help.
19:09We have a ship
19:11that can help us
19:13to find out
19:15where our ship is now.
19:17It's time to find out the location.
19:19The DNR will install
19:21monitoring instruments.
19:23Aside from the shipping lane,
19:25many Bataan people also fish here.
19:27But according to the Bataan Station Commander of the PCG,
19:29no oil has been found
19:31that escaped from the cargo of the ship.
19:33It is possible that the fuel of the ship
19:35or fuel from the deck
19:37may have escaped
19:39from the cargo of the ship.
19:41The target of the PCG
19:43is to find the oil tanker
19:45within 7 days.
19:47The Bataan Governor is positive
19:49that the ship will be found soon
19:51because this part of Manila Bay
19:53is not deep.
19:55The depth of Manila Bay
19:57is about 30 meters.
19:59It is not impossible
20:01to find a way
20:03to safely
20:05and securely
20:07find the oil tanker.
20:09President Bongbong Marcos already knows the situation
20:11and ordered various agencies
20:13to assess the effects
20:15of the oil spill.
20:17The fuel that's being released,
20:19what are the tides,
20:21what are the winds,
20:23where is it headed,
20:25so that we can be the first.
20:27Sir, the OSC
20:29maybe can also make
20:31some determinations on that.
20:33Maris, according to the owner of the ship,
20:35they are cooperating with the authorities
20:37to ensure that the potential damage
20:39of the cargo of their ship
20:41is limited.
20:43And if you can see behind me,
20:45the weather here in Bataan
20:47is still bad.
20:49It is possible that it will affect
20:51the exact location of the sinking ship.
20:53That's the latest from Limay, Bataan.
20:55Maris?
20:57Thank you very much
20:59and take care there, Rafi Tima.
21:00Fifteen people were trapped
21:02when a wall was built in Caintarizal.
21:04The rescue operation was a success
21:06in a community where
21:08the tides were too high.
21:10Here is my exclusive footage.
21:20The tides were too high
21:22before this place
21:24which is called Tribu Community
21:26was reached.
21:28Inside Barangay San Isidro, Caintarizal
21:30was rescued last night
21:32to save the 15 people
21:34including the children and adults
21:36who were trapped.
21:38A wall was built in the area
21:40and the tides were too high.
21:42The place was isolated
21:44and there was no electricity.
21:46The water was too high.
21:48We were able to get everyone
21:50and we brought them here
21:52to the evacuation center.
21:54The tides stopped here in Caintar
21:56but most of the residential areas
21:58were still submerged.
22:00On the side of the road,
22:02a parking lot was built
22:04for the residents
22:06who were trapped
22:08in the flooded areas.
22:11Old refrigerators
22:13were used
22:15to penetrate the communities.
22:17Here, we were able to see
22:19the residents who were trapped
22:21in the flood
22:23and were able to buy food
22:25and other necessities.
22:27We bought rice and vegetables.
22:28It was scary.
22:31Many residents were unable
22:33to get out of their houses
22:35and were trapped.
22:37The water in the estuaries
22:39was still high.
22:41The tides have been low
22:43for a long time.
22:45In the past,
22:47there was no water.
22:49Now, there is.
22:51What are the reasons, Captain?
22:53There are more houses.
22:55At the same time,
22:56in Caintar,
22:5885 to 90 percent
23:00or more than 200,000 residents
23:02are affected by the tides.
23:04Do you have anything to save?
23:06Clothes?
23:08Or even a little money?
23:10I don't have money.
23:12They have pumping stations
23:14running for more than 24 hours
23:16to lower the tides.
23:18In the early hours,
23:20the rain has stopped
23:22so that the water in the floodway
23:24can go down.
23:26That's what's affected.
23:28My other problem is
23:30in Barangay San Isidro.
23:32It comes from the higher slopes
23:34of Rizal
23:36where the creeks of the villages
23:38along Imelda Avenue are flooded.
23:40According to the Rizal Police,
23:42three have been affected by the tides.
23:44Six have been injured in the landslide.
23:46One has just disappeared
23:48while those in the evacuation center
23:50have more than 12,300 families.
23:53The Rizal Provincial Government
23:54provides relief goods
23:56to those affected.
23:58They are happy to provide
24:00a little help
24:02to our fellow countrymen
24:04like partner in business
24:06Jesse and Kremi.
24:08Even if it rains,
24:10they opened their restaurant
24:12to provide food
24:14to those affected by the floods.
24:16They are happy
24:18that their people,
24:20even if their restaurant is closed,
24:22will still receive their salary.
24:24This is a good thing for the community.
24:26It feels good to give.
24:28For GMA Integrated News,
24:30I'm Emil Sumangil,
24:32for 24 Hours.
24:38My fellow countrymen,
24:40the Philippine Area of Responsibility
24:42or PAR is no longer affected
24:44but the effects of the floods
24:46will continue in the country.
24:48In addition,
24:50there is a new bad weather.
24:52This morning,
24:54due to its interaction
24:56with the mountains of Taiwan
24:58where it landfalled.
25:00Since it became a super typhoon,
25:02it has been classified as a typhoon category.
25:04Even if it is already outside,
25:06the number one signal
25:08in Batanes is still there
25:10because it is still possible
25:12that it will be part of the flood
25:14while moving away from PAR.
25:16According to the forecast,
25:18the flood will continue to weaken
25:20while hitting Southeastern China.
25:21According to the Meteorological Department,
25:23there is still a chance of rain
25:25but there is no sign
25:27of the typhoon's impact.
25:29Tomorrow morning,
25:31there is still a chance of rain
25:33in Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan
25:35and other parts of Central Luzon
25:37and Mindoro Provinces.
25:39There is a chance of rain
25:41in the afternoon
25:43including Cagayan Valley,
25:45Cordillera, Palawan, Bicol Region,
25:47Samar Province,
25:49Aklan, Antique, Caragat,
25:51and the northern and western seaboards
25:53of Northern Luzon.
25:55Meanwhile,
25:57a new low-pressure area
25:59was seen inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
26:01It was seen at a distance of 985 kilometers
26:03east of Southeastern Mindanao.
26:05According to the forecast,
26:07there is still a chance of rain
26:09but because it is in the ocean,
26:11it will continue to be monitored
26:13even if it increases.
26:15There is still no effect
26:17on any part of the country.
26:19In the middle of the storm,
26:21the Philippines was hit hard.
26:23There was a severe cancer patient
26:25who was cooked and evacuated.
26:27Many also helped in rescuing the person
26:29and became caretakers.
26:31Tina Panganiban Perez was there.
26:36In times of deluge and crisis,
26:38there are people who put aside
26:40their personal safety
26:42and needs
26:44to prioritize others.
26:46Like the cancer patient
26:48Mercy Absalon,
26:49the flood reached the house of Mercy
26:51in Barangay Santa Lucia
26:53in Novaliches, Quezon City yesterday.
26:55But she thought
26:57the evacuees need to be fed.
26:59Even when I am sick,
27:01I want to help.
27:03Even if it is hard, I am happy.
27:05I am happy that we are able to help
27:07our fellow citizens.
27:09Somehow, I also need help.
27:11But the happiness is different
27:13when we are able to help.
27:15In different evacuation centers
27:17in Barangay Santa Lucia,
27:19more than 500 families
27:21and more than 1,500 individuals
27:23were evacuated.
27:25Four small children,
27:27along with Carla and her parents,
27:29were evacuated
27:31when the water reached their area.
27:33We were immediately evacuated
27:35because of the heavy rain
27:37and the sudden flood.
27:39Many people were evacuated.
27:41We are here in Tarja Ville
27:43in Novaliches, Quezon City
27:45in one of the most
27:47severe floods yesterday.
27:49Do you see that wall?
27:51Behind it, on the other side,
27:53there is a creek.
27:55It was flooded yesterday
27:57so the water here reached
27:59the second floor of houses.
28:01In some houses,
28:03there was a flood in the wall.
28:05In Barangay Bagong Silangan,
28:07in Quezon City,
28:09Manuel Bermas was the first.
28:11He is a member of the BERT
28:13or Barangay Health Emergency Response Team.
28:15He is a different person
28:17than his own family.
28:19In his house,
28:21he poured deep water
28:23to save the people trapped in the flood.
28:25Earlier,
28:27he was also part of the retrieval operations
28:29of a man who was believed to have drowned in the flood.
28:31Even though we know
28:33that our lives are in danger,
28:35as long as we can help,
28:37we are happy.
28:3910,000 people were evacuated
28:41in Barangay Bagong Silangan
28:43which, according to the mayor of Quezon City,
28:45was the most affected by the rain and flood yesterday.
28:47In the whole city,
28:49there were no evacuees.
28:51Some of the leaders of the camera
28:53helped in distributing relief goods to them.
28:56If the weather doesn't get worse,
28:58we're preparing for them to go home now.
29:03In Barangay Marikina City,
29:05a man drowned in the flood
29:07to rescue a dog
29:09trapped in the gate of a house.
29:11The dog was brought to the evacuation center
29:13when the rescuers arrived.
29:16For GMA Integrated News,
29:17I'm Tina Panganiban Perez.
29:19We're live for 24 hours.
29:22The flood that drowned a hospital in Bulacan
29:25and the medicines that were wasted
29:27from Maykawayan
29:29was added to the patients' calvary.
29:31We're live,
29:33with JP Soriano,
29:35JP.
29:37Emil, Kapuso,
29:39the rain is pouring down
29:41on a large part of Maykawayan, Bulacan.
29:43Some barangays in the city
29:45are still flooded
29:47just like where we are now,
29:49in Barangay Banga.
29:51Here in this barangay,
29:53a hospital was flooded
29:55and was severely affected
29:57by their operation
29:59because of the flood.
30:03It was past 2 p.m. yesterday
30:05when the Maykawayan Doctors' Hospital
30:07and Medical Center
30:09slowly entered the flood.
30:11Within two hours,
30:13water reached up to Bewang
30:15inside the hospital
30:17where some patients
30:19and equipment were placed.
30:21Today, the water reached the floor
30:23but the ground floor of the hospital
30:25is still covered with mud.
30:27We can't operate
30:29if there's no electricity.
30:31It's water.
30:33Their equipment is still a generator
30:35so the hospital is already affected.
30:37I'm having a patient tested
30:39but he's not tested
30:41because the hospital is just a generator.
30:43In the aftermath of the flood yesterday,
30:45one of the stroke patients,
30:47was rushed to the hospital
30:49after being saved by his caregiver
30:51and his friend.
30:53I remember the patient.
30:55I really can't believe it.
30:57The water reached the floor
30:59and he was lying on the floor.
31:01We thought it was a prayer.
31:03He told me not to leave him.
31:05According to the PDRRMO,
31:07until 12 p.m. yesterday,
31:09almost the entire Maykawayan
31:11and Marilao were still affected
31:13by the flood.
31:15Residents tied ropes
31:17around the hospital.
31:19Residents told us
31:21that the flood was stronger
31:23in Ondoy in 2009.
31:25Their basis was
31:27how far the flood reached
31:29compared to Ondoy.
31:31In Ondoy, the flood reached
31:33this belt.
31:35But yesterday,
31:37the flood reached this portion
31:39of Papaya Leaves.
31:41It's thicker.
31:43It's double.
31:45This is also the observation
31:47on the roof
31:49of their house.
31:51In some parts of the barangay,
31:53the flood reached the 2nd floor.
32:13At this time,
32:14the flood continues
32:16until Tuhod.
32:18It's very deep.
32:20Residents call for help
32:22such as food,
32:24old appliances,
32:26clothes, medicine,
32:28and drinking water
32:30that they can give
32:32especially during this time.
32:34That's the latest news
32:36from Maykawayan, Bulacan.
32:38Back to you, Emil.
32:40Thank you very much,
32:42JP Soriano.
32:44He's the founder
32:46of giving information
32:48about bad times.
32:50He also went around
32:52and spread possible solutions
32:54and help.
32:56Ivan Mayrina was with us.
32:58One day,
33:00after the flood
33:02of Bagyong Karina and Habagat,
33:04the President called for a briefing.
33:06But at some point,
33:08he ran out of information
33:10to give him.
33:12At one point,
33:14he said,
33:16what is the situation
33:18on the ground now?
33:20Where is there still flooding?
33:22Where are there still
33:24isolated communities?
33:26That is what we need to know
33:28because for all our agencies
33:30to move,
33:32we need to know where to go.
33:34That's really what I need
33:36to hear from you.
33:38It seems that the President
33:40is also lacking
33:42in the briefing
33:44of the NCR.
33:46We'll coordinate with Pag-asa
33:48on the list they gave earlier.
33:50Okay.
33:52What I need to know,
33:54what we need for us
33:56to be able to decide
33:57what to do next,
33:59we have to understand
34:01because it's
34:03not very useful
34:05for me to hear
34:06that 164 requests
34:08for rescuers
34:09means nothing.
34:11Where
34:12130 of them
34:14were from one place.
34:16That's where we went.
34:19For him to be able to see
34:21the extent of the flood,
34:22the President went around
34:23some of the most polluted areas
34:25starting from Valenzuela.
34:27Even on MacArthur Highway,
34:29the floodplain was already flooded.
34:31Baka Puso,
34:32GMA Integrated News
34:34is still on
34:35when the President
34:36went around Valenzuela City.
34:38We are here in Bahagi
34:39where the flood is still high.
34:40That's why
34:41we are riding
34:42on the high trucks
34:44because the cars
34:45can't handle
34:47the high flood here.
34:49You can see
34:50a lot of residents
34:51struggling to walk
34:52in the flood
34:53from Tuhod to Hita.
34:54A lot of businesses
34:55are closed.
34:57Every passer-by
34:58has a need for help
35:00or a request for help.
35:02After the briefing
35:03from Mayor Wes Gatchalian,
35:04the President
35:05once again
35:06pointed out
35:07the lack of timely information
35:08regarding the loss
35:09of dam water.
35:11Yesterday, for example,
35:12the Lamesa Dam
35:13that flows through
35:14the Tulyahan River
35:15may have added
35:16to the flood
35:17in some parts of Valenzuela.
35:19We have a weakness
35:20in communication.
35:21When the dam opens,
35:23the dam will overflow.
35:25The downstream communities
35:26need to know
35:28and the LGUs.
35:30From Valenzuela,
35:31the President
35:32also went around Malabon
35:33to Navotas
35:35where the reason
35:36for the heavy flooding
35:37was the Navotas
35:38navigational gate
35:39that was damaged
35:40a long time ago.
35:41He ordered the MMDA
35:42and DPWH
35:43to find
35:44an immediate solution
35:46while the damaged
35:47navigational gate
35:48is still in operation.
35:49Until now,
35:51even when it stopped raining,
35:5380% of Navotas
35:54is still submerged
35:55in the flood.
35:56I want to see
35:57what the damage is
35:58so that is there
35:59something that we can do?
36:00Should we pour
36:01a sandbag or something?
36:02I don't know.
36:04But we have to
36:05get an engineer
36:06to look at it
36:08and to tell us
36:09what we can do
36:10so that the water
36:11doesn't keep coming in.
36:13The water is still high.
36:15The President
36:16also went around
36:17the evacuation center
36:18in Barangay Maranday
36:19but he didn't go down
36:20because even in the
36:21evacuation center itself,
36:22the water is still high.
36:24After this visit,
36:25the National Government
36:26will form a release package
36:27for the local governments
36:29depending on the needs
36:31while waiting
36:32for the flood to stop.
36:33Thousands of Filipinos
36:34are staying
36:35in evacuation centers
36:36like the ones
36:37that were visited
36:38by the President earlier
36:39including Maria Teresa Ragul
36:40whose baby girl
36:41was raped here
36:42in the evacuation center
36:43yesterday.
36:44Her name is
36:45Karina.
