00:00Mga Koresley, dahil tag-ulan na naman,
00:01karaniwa na ang mga pagbahapo sa iba't-ibang lugar sa bansa.
00:05Kaya naman, iba't-ibang programa po ang ginagawa ng gobyerno
00:08para matagunan ng matagal ng problema ito ng ating bansa.
00:12At dahil dyan, napapanhon pag-usapan natin yan, Diane,
00:15ngayong umaga, ang tungkol sa flood control program
00:18na ginagawa ng Kavite ng gobyernong katuwang
00:21ang JICA o Japan International Cooperation Agency.
00:25At dawg na yan, makakasama po natin si Mr. Suji Kaku
00:29ang team leader ng CIA FRIMP o Kavite Industrial Area Flood Risk Management Project.
00:35At si Ms. Emelita Mimi Estaris, ang non-structural specialist ng CIA FRIMP.
00:39Good morning po, Kakusan.
00:41Good morning.
00:42Mamimi, good morning po.
00:43Good morning.
00:43Good morning.
00:43Good morning.
00:45Alright, let's start with Kakusan.
00:47So what is the government project that addresses the issue of flooding
00:50and ensures the safety of the residents living along the riverbanks in Kavite?
00:54Tell us about this project.
00:55Yes, basically, especially east north side, near the Manila Bay.
01:03It's elevation around 2 meter below the sea level, above sea level.
01:09It's what we call the low land area.
01:10So this area is always suffer from the low pressure and the hava gap and the typhoon.
01:18They're always caused by the water overflow, flooding, and insufficient drainage system
01:26and also high tide.
01:28So this is very always a low flooding area.
01:31That's what we study and conduct in implementing about structural and non-structural measure.
01:39Alright, Kakusan, who will benefit from this project?
01:42Basically, the residents around that area, we are trying to cover in the reduced human casualty
01:50and also business people now.
01:52So Mr. Kakusan, what areas are covered by this project and how will it affect or it will solve the problem in flooding,
02:02particularly in the rivers?
02:04Yes, sir.
02:05This is actually the second project we are not ongoing now.
02:09First project is in the Imus River and Bacor River.
02:14We already constructed two retaining basins.
02:17This retaining basins is the first time constructed in the Philippines.
02:21Now it's trying to catch the water.
02:25It's very much functional, effective now.
02:28And then ongoing now we are going to do another work in that it's called the river improvement
02:35plus the retaining basins now for a different next area, covering the area.
02:41Maybe also, now who are the partners in this project?
02:45The partners, basically, our implementing office is TPWH.
02:49And also we have a conducting with concerned agency, five LGU plus the provincial government
02:58and also OCD and PAGASA and TILG and all concerned government agencies.
03:07All right, we'll go back to you, Kaposan.
03:10Puntahan naman natin ngayon si Ma'am Mimi.
03:12All right, bilang non-structural measure specialist, tell us about the work that you do
03:17at kaugnay na rin po sa flood mitigation project na ito, lalo na po sa mga naninirahan po sa tabig ilo ba?
03:23Ang non-structural measures ay ang counterpart measure ng structural.
03:28Kung sila ay gumagawa ng mga struktura para mabawasan ng pagbaha yung magnitude ng flood,
03:34ang non-structural measures ay binabawasan ang vulnerability ng mga komunidad na mga tao
03:41laban sa risk na dulot ng iba-ibang hazard, particularly flood, typhoon, etc.
03:47So let's talk about yung Cavite area po, Ma'am. Kamusta po ba yung kalagayan po
03:52at efekto po ng pagbaha po sa lugang na ito?
03:56Ito ay isang, over the years, magmula 2006, yung Bagyong Milenyo,
04:03Undoy, Habaga 2012, Habaga 2013, at lately yung Bagyong Paeng,
04:10Sobrang pinsala ang nangyayari dun sa aming areas, Noveleta, Imus, Kawit, Bacoor, at General Trias,
04:18and also Rosario.
04:20So yung non-structural measures, kami talaga ay nakikipagtulungan at ang trabaho ay talaga sa community.
04:27Ini-involve yung community, yung mga tao, sa iba-ibang non-structural measures na dinidesign ng project,
04:33katulad sa emergency management, nandiyan yung pag-strengthen namin ng organization sa communities at sa LGUs.
04:44Sinisigurado namin na nandoon yung mga DRRMO, mga planning offices, para maisagawa yung project.
04:53Kasi yung aming talagang pangunahing layunin ay sustainability at continuity na kahit matapos yung project,
05:04ay tuloy-tuloy na magagawa ng mga LGU, mayroong technology transfer.
05:09Isa sa mga projects or programs na ginagawa naman ay ang IEC.
05:15Talagang pumupunta kami sa mga skwela, katulong ang DOST Pag-asa, yung basic knowledge about hydromethazards,
05:24flood, tropical cyclos, talagang itinuturo sa mga grade 5, grade 6, tapos may bago rin yung programa para sa high school.
05:33Also, tumutulong kami sa flood mapping para ma-identify yung mga,
05:40hindi lang yung mga hazard areas kung saan huwag magtatayo ng mga struktura,
05:45tinutukoy din namin yung mga safe spaces para bago pa magbaha, makakapunta na dito doon sa mga safe spaces.
05:54And sa farming communities, pati animal shelters, ginagawa natin.
05:58Pero I'm sorry to cut you off. Kasi di ba may mga nag-ereklamo ng mga lugar.
06:02Dati, sinasabi, dati hindi kami binabaha. Pero ngayon, binabaha na.
06:07For example, nung last time, yung Commonwealth Avenue, binaha siya eh.
06:12Pero ano ba bilang inyong expertise na rin?
06:15Ayun yung nakikita niyong problema. Bakit biglang binabaha ngayon yung mga lugar dati na hindi naman binabaha?
06:20Okay. Marami kasing klase ng pagbaha.
06:23Andyan yung urban flooding, na-mention ni misal kako kanina, na yung drainage problems.
06:30Tapos meron urban development management na naging medyo out of control sa iba-ibang lugar.
06:37Mga natayuan yung mga branches ng rivers, baradong drainage, madaming basura nagka-clog sa rivers.
06:45So lahat yan sa non-structural measures, pumipili lang kami ng focus.
06:49Katulad ng Cavite, for instance.
06:52Meron siyang lowland.
06:53Yung binabaha.
06:53O, meron din siya upland.
06:57E upland, pag malakas yung ulan doon, kahit hindi pa bumabaha sa lowland, yung agos ng tubig, yung mga trosong na puputol, yung mga basura.
07:08Kaya ngayon, tapos kumikipot pa yung mga rivers.
07:11Tsaka yung sinasabi ko nga na natabunan yung mga branches ng rivers dahil sa development.
07:17Okay.
07:18So we have a project now that will give solutions.
07:21So lastly, Kakusan, tell us when is the target completion of this project?
07:25When did it start?
07:26And what do you look for after the completion?
07:29Yes.
07:29Now, ongoing project now we are starting the detailed engineer design starting for 2018.
07:35Then actually it's construction supervision and it's starting 2022 and our target is 2028 at this moment.
07:46Okay.
07:47Probably some last few words or message to all our viewers.
07:50Especially those who will be, would the project be beneficial for them?
07:55Any message to them?
07:57Yes.
07:57Because we are doing this project is just, it's not, it's a long-term solution.
08:03So I hope people will understanding this project and because maybe we are sometimes disturbing
08:09but I hope this will help the next generation that people can be saved in their life.
08:16Ang akin naman ay itaas natin yung level ng preparation, yung preparedness, yung focus na
08:23bako pa nga mabaha, malubog yung ating mga kabahayan.
08:27Prevention, ma'am, no?
08:28Oo, dapat talagang handang-handa na tayo to the best of our abilities, katulong yung lahat
08:35ng mga partner agencies.
08:38Tamang tama po ngayon, panahon ng tag-ulan, talaga nga.
08:42Ang mga ganitong usapan ay mahalaga.
08:44At dapat ito ay year long natin talagang tinatalakay.
08:47Tsaka tama yung sinasabi kanina ng Kakusan.
08:50It's a whole government approach, right?
08:52It's a partnership between the LGUs and the national government.
08:56Yes, sir.
08:56Well, thank you very much.
08:59Arigato po zain, Musou.
09:00At thank you po sa yung panahon dito sa Rise and Shine Pilipinas.
09:04Mulina, kasama po natin si Mr. Suji Kaku at si Ms. Emelita Mimi Estales.
09:09Thank you very much.
