00:00 The local government of Cebu City has already sent mobile siphon tanks to the hills of the city
00:07 to ration the water for the residents.
00:10 The residents have been discarding the water for a while.
00:15 This is Jesse Atienza of PTV Cebu.
00:18 On the road leading to the hills of Cebu City,
00:24 drums are being played on the side of the road.
00:27 We waited for a while. We reached Manong Crescencio.
00:31 He is carrying four drums.
00:33 He hopes that he can fill the water tank
00:36 because they are having a hard time getting water.
00:39 We are getting water here.
00:42 We are getting water once a week.
00:46 Sometimes, we get water once a week.
00:49 We are getting water here.
00:53 In this situation,
00:55 the residents need to be discarded and rationed
00:58 so that they can get water.
01:00 Because it is hard to get water,
01:05 the family of Father Crescencio has been discarded
01:08 for their bathing.
01:10 They are using this bucket
01:13 and they are putting it here.
01:16 They are getting water and pouring it.
01:18 The water that they are collecting
01:20 will be transferred to this bucket
01:23 and they will use it to clean their bathroom.
01:27 Some residents bathe once a week.
01:32 John Michael can't bathe everyday
01:39 but because of the heat,
01:42 he bathes twice a day.
01:44 It's hot.
01:46 It's hot.
01:48 It's just a little bit.
01:50 Recently, the LGU of Cebu City
01:53 sent a mobile siphon tank
01:55 to the barangay in Balubunduking
01:57 that will suck water from the river
01:59 and distribute it to the affected residents.
02:02 We've been helping.
02:04 I've been to Bonbon
02:06 and I've seen the mobile siphon tank.
02:10 I was there.
02:11 And I thank MCWD and the JICA
02:15 for the Japanese technology.
02:17 It's a Japanese technology.
02:18 For now, the residents will be forced to endure
02:22 while the heat continues to spread.
02:25 That's why everyone is trying to save water
02:29 while the El Nino is still here.
