01:49 In 2019, the first to be identified by a reporter's notebook was Lloyda Texon
01:53 who lived in San Francisco, Binan City, Laguna.
01:57 [music]
02:00 She saw the cracks in their house that came out after the strong earthquake.
02:06 [music]
02:09 After four years, we brought her back.
02:13 [music]
02:19 The cracks in the house became bigger.
02:22 It was strong.
02:23 It fell.
02:25 Then when it fell, we did this.
02:28 [explosion]
02:29 It fell again.
02:30 That's what happened.
02:31 This one, it was slowly coming down.
02:34 [explosion]
02:35 [music]
02:37 Now, the ground is coming down, even to the back of Lloyda's house.
02:41 [music]
02:44 Even though the other part of the house was broken, the cracks were slowly appearing.
02:49 It was broken. The ground was coming down.
02:51 All of the holes.
02:53 [explosion]
02:54 Then that wall, it was about to fall.
02:58 It was also cracked.
03:00 [music]
03:01 The weak curtains and seat covers were the only thing that Lloyda's family could afford.
03:06 In 2015, a Filipino Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of P.Volks became her customer.
03:15 She noticed it.
03:16 She said, "Why is your wall like that?"
03:18 [music]
03:20 This is when Lloyda found out that her house was above an active fault.
03:25 She advised us to leave.
03:27 [music]
03:29 Our house would sink, while the other would rise.
03:32 [music]
03:33 When Lloyda's house was removed, cracks would be seen and the road would be lowered.
03:39 [music]
03:42 Binyan City and San Francisco Barangays were part of the West Valley Fault System.
03:48 It is one of the two major active fault segments of Marikina Valley Fault.
03:52 [music]
03:54 It is 100 kilometers long and flows through Metro Manila and the provinces of Bulacan, Rizal, Cavite, and Laguna.
04:02 [music]
04:04 Some parts of the road in the subdivision where Lloyda lives were affected by the movement of the fault.
04:11 [music]
04:13 Some houses were also destroyed and abandoned.
04:16 One day, someone lived here.
04:19 They were a family. It was not like that yet. It was fine.
04:22 Sometime in 2015, they saw that there was a crack in the kitchen.
04:29 They abandoned it until it became like this.
04:32 You can see the cracks.
04:34 If we could let it go inside that house, there would be a lot of cracks.
04:39 It would be impossible to live there.
04:41 The barangay also distributed tarpaulins with a map of the fault and the possible numbers to call in case of emergency.
04:49 There is also an active fault marker that was placed by the Binyan City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office.
04:55 FIVOX placed instruments in the area to know and measure the movement of the soil.
05:03 Every 6 months, they come here to check the soil.
05:07 They placed it here because they saw that the soil was moving.
05:13 [music]
05:15 Yesterday, on December 5, 2023, some parts of Luzon were hit by a magnitude 5.9 earthquake.
05:22 According to FIVOX, the center of the earthquake was in Lubang Occidental, Mindoro.
05:28 The movement of the soil was felt in the nearby provinces.
05:33 But it was also felt by Lloyda in Laguna.
05:36 We went outside and prayed.
05:39 It was a miracle. They saved us.
05:42 [music]
05:44 The next year, they plan to move their house.
05:47 [music]
05:50 In Metro Manila, the magnitude 5.9 earthquake was also felt.
05:55 [music]
05:59 The employees of an office in Makati City hurried to go down and go out when they heard an alarm in the house before the earthquake hit Luzon.
06:09 [music]
06:11 The residents of Mindanao experienced the earthquake first after the magnitude 7.4 earthquake hit.
06:18 [music]
06:22 In this CCTV video taken inside a store in Bislig City, Surigao del Sur,
06:28 [music]
06:29 you can see the movement of the buildings that were affected by the fall of some stores.
06:35 [music]
06:40 Some bottles of alcohol fell from the ceiling and were broken.
06:45 [music]
06:46 The epicenter of the earthquake was recorded inside the market of Surigao del Sur.
06:51 [music]
06:53 The depth of this is 26 kilometers. It is described as destructive.
06:58 Some houses were destroyed and the ceiling fell.
07:04 [music]
07:11 While this group was enjoying themselves in a hotel in Tagon City, Davao del Norte,
07:16 [music]
07:19 the table suddenly jolted and the drinks fell in front of them.
07:24 [music]
07:26 Some of the hotel guests were made to hide under the table.
07:30 [music]
07:33 Some were not able to avoid being scared and frightened.
07:37 Glenn took a cellphone video and uploaded it online.
07:41 Glenn said this was one of the strongest shocks they have experienced.
07:46 We couldn't hide. It's so difficult to quickly dodge under the table.
07:51 There's also like broken glasses on the floor.
07:54 [music]
07:57 Oh my God!
07:58 [music]
08:02 Lord! Lord! What happened?
08:05 [music]
08:08 Hi guys!
08:10 When the magnitude 7.4 earthquake happened,
08:13 Surigao del Sur was located in their area,
08:16 the resident Siligaya Villegas.
08:19 In the middle of our happiness, it shook and it was strong as if we didn't know where we were going.
08:26 [explosion]
08:28 When we all went out, a shell exploded in front of me.
08:33 I went back and when I turned around, another shell exploded.
08:37 So it blacked out.
08:39 Siligaya was showing his mother with the illness that was left in their house.
08:45 When I went there, my mother was in a lot of pain.
08:48 My mother was sleeping at that time.
08:50 In the pictures taken by Siligaya, the pencil that was left by the earthquake can be seen.
08:55 In this picture, the large crack in the wall is visible in the barangay Poblacion, Bislig City.
09:01 There is a wall that is falling apart.
09:03 While some parts of the school were falling apart,
09:08 in the barangay Santa Maria in Tagbina, Surigao del Sur.
09:11 Inside the Silid Aralan, some parts of the Kisame also fell apart.
09:16 While in another picture, the wall of the classroom completely collapsed.
09:20 Three of our countrymen were affected.
09:23 More than 180,000 families were affected.
09:26 During that time, we placed a lot of people in evacuation centers.
09:31 The agricultural waste was more than Php 110 million.
09:35 In terms of infrastructure, the waste was also large.
09:39 The infrastructure cost us almost Php 1 billion.
09:43 According to the PHEVOX,
09:45 there is no connection between the earthquake in Luzon and the earthquake in Mindanao.
09:51 The generator of the Surigao earthquake would be the Philippine Trench.
09:56 And then the generator of the earthquake that happened yesterday was the Manila Trench.
10:01 Despite their belief that the big one will be the one to fall,
10:10 this cannot be said.
10:12 No one will scream.
10:15 Especially since no one knows when the next strong earthquake will happen.
10:21 That's why the agency reminds us that in these kinds of occasions,
10:25 it's important to be prepared.
10:29 The training, the drills that the government gives,
10:32 let's cooperate, let's join, especially those in the private sector.
10:36 To save your loved ones, save yourself first.
10:41 Study where you should go if there is an earthquake.
10:44 Oh my God!
10:46 There is no warning and there is no avoidance.
10:54 Lord! Help me, Lord!
10:56 But the earthquake can be prepared.
10:59 It's important to be alert,
11:02 to follow the advice of experts,
11:04 and to have the right knowledge to avoid the big threat of earthquakes.
11:12 The government should also prepare a response program
11:15 in case an earthquake happens.
