00:00 We will now continue the story of the Unda's in Mindanao,
00:03 as one of the cemeteries hit by road widening.
00:06 Stay tuned for the search of the remains,
00:08 and other updates brought to you by Kent Abrigana
00:11 of GMA Region TV.
00:13 Juan Mindanao, live from Davao City.
00:16 Kent.
00:16 Emil, there are now 17,000 visitors to the cemeteries here in Davao City.
00:27 This is the Roman Catholic Cemetery,
00:30 which is why the businesses are alive.
00:33 It was only 11 in the morning earlier.
00:40 The 18-year-old painter, Joe Belon,
00:43 earned P1,200 from his rocket painting of Nietzsche.
00:47 Thank you, Juan.
00:49 After the pandemic, we have no income.
00:53 We have no income. We have no money.
01:00 At the wireless cemetery,
01:02 the 76-year-old Dolores visited her ex-husband early.
01:07 I am the only one who has a house.
01:11 Dolores has a hard time walking,
01:13 so she borrowed a wheelchair from the cemetery.
01:16 She also received help.
01:17 I have a house.
01:21 I have a house.
01:23 I have a house.
01:24 I have a house.
01:27 At the Santa Cruz Public Cemetery in Davao del Sur,
01:29 some people went to the cemetery
01:31 and lit their candles in front of the image of Jesus Christ
01:34 because they didn't know where they were buried.
01:38 Some of the graves were destroyed,
01:40 but there were no more remains
01:41 because the bones were moved
01:43 because it would affect the road widening in the area.
01:46 At the largest cemetery in Tagob City,
01:48 the La Filipina Public Cemetery,
01:50 a candle was lit at this large cross
01:52 and people prayed for the unsearched graves
01:54 of their loved ones.
01:57 We went there right away
01:58 because some of the dead were buried there
02:05 and they couldn't locate them.
02:07 We went to the cemetery
02:10 and we gave them the address
02:13 where the bonnets were.
02:15 The residents of the Mass Grave Cemetery in Zamboanga City
02:17 cleaned and lit the bonnets and candles
02:20 where some of the dead were buried due to COVID-19.
02:24 In the adjacent lot,
02:25 more than 40 unidentified corpses were buried last month.
02:29 Most of them were unborn
02:31 and were claimed to the Office of the City's Social Welfare and Development.
02:34 At Antonio Acharon Memorial Park in General Santos City,
02:37 the belief of "palina" or the "hiding of a person"
02:39 is still alive
02:41 in the burnt wood that was exposed to the smoke
02:42 when the cemetery was taken out before going home.
02:44 It has become a livelihood of others,
02:46 like 50-year-old father Pablito.
02:49 He says that he gives 5 pesos per step.
02:52 Emil, at this time,
02:59 people are still praying
03:01 here at the Roman Catholic Cemetery in Davao City.
03:05 In our interview earlier in San Pedro Police,
03:07 they haven't been able to find any untoward incidents so far.
03:10 Emil?
