00:00As the new year approaches, many people are busy buying fireworks to celebrate the occasion.

00:05Vendors report a high demand for various types of firecrackers, with prices varying.

00:10PTD's Ron Laguzan tells us more.

00:15This New Year's Eve, crowds of last-minute shoppers are flocking to buy fireworks

00:19as this becomes a part of their tradition in welcoming the new year.

00:23Billy traveled all the way from Tondo, Manila to Bukawai, Bulacan to buy fireworks this New Year's Eve.

00:28For us, it will never be lost.

00:30It's like a prayer.

00:32Every year, it's really beautiful.

00:34It's louder, it's more beautiful, it's luckier.

00:36Good fortunes will come in.

00:39Among the fireworks he bought were rounds of sawa, aerial fireworks, and fountains.

00:43Billy, who's from Quezon City, also bought fireworks today.

00:46But for this year, he was being a bit more frugal with his purchases.

00:50Usually, I don't buy fireworks here.

00:52It's time for me to travel to Bukawai.

00:55Then, I'll go home. I'll go home to Manila.

00:57He bought some sawa and kuitis for the New Year's celebration later.

01:00They're just the two of many shoppers this New Year's Eve in Bukawai.

01:03According to Diane, a vendor, many people have already been buying since December 29,

01:08including those who placed pre-orders.

01:10There are still a lot of people.

01:12It's not enough.

01:13It's like this rush hour.

01:15There's a lot of people.

01:17I think there will be more because we know that there are Filipinos.

01:21When there's a rush hour like this, that's when people come.

01:25She mentioned that some fireworks prices have gone up while others have become cheaper.

01:28The best sellers are aerial fireworks priced from P550 while the most expensive can reach P45,000

01:35depending on the number of shots.

01:37Fountains, which are also in demand, ranging from P3 for P100 for the smallest ones

01:42up to P1,500 for the larger ones.

01:45The famous sawa starts at P180 for the cheapest.

01:55To ensure the safe selling of fireworks, there is a fire extinguisher available in the store

02:00and they reprimand customers who smoke.

02:02In addition, firefighters from the Bureau of Fire Protection are on standby in the area.
