00:00Because of the hot weather, the number of bangus growing in some provinces in Pangasinan is decreasing.
00:07Live from Dagupan City, we have the first news, Joanne Consoy of GMA Regional TV, 1 North Central Luzon.
00:14Joanne, good morning.
00:17Ivan, some bangus growers in the province of Pangasinan are affected because of the continuous hot weather.
00:25Mang Dindo, from Binmalay, Pangasinan, was able to find his bangus this month.
00:35The bangus should be 10 to 13 inches long, but it only reached 6 to 7 inches long.
00:42It's not growing, it's too hot.
00:44According to the authority, some bangus growers are losing money because the bangus they harvest are small.
00:50The growth of bangus is affected because of the intense heat of the weather.
00:54The major reason is the intense heat of the weather, that's the truth.
00:59Because there are a lot of fisheries that are very low.
01:03The first harvest of the day is done by some so that the fish won't die because of the sudden rain.
01:10The dissolved oxygen of the fisheries is decreasing because of the sudden change of weather.
01:15When it's hot, they drown in the morning.
01:19Because of the high supply, the price of bangus dropped from P90 to P110 per kilo in Magsaysay Fish Market in Dagupan City.
01:27Monitoring of the bangus that are being imported to the fish market is also restricted.
01:31If there's no auxiliary, we check the fish and we check if it's soft. If it's not, we can't.
01:44Meanwhile, because of the hot weather, the Bureau of Fire Protection is aware that the vehicles are not safe from fire.
01:51It's more dangerous if it's parked under direct sunlight.
01:55According to the BFP, 13 vehicles were burned in separate incidents in Pangasinan from January to April this year.
02:03One of the reasons why the vehicles are being burned is because we don't check the electrical wiring of the vehicles.
02:14It's also possible for the vehicle to be burned because of the things left inside it,
02:19such as cellphones, bottled water, lighters, aerosol cans, sunglasses, carbonated drinks, food and medicine.
02:28These are included in the combustible materials and it's easy to melt if it's hot or it's directly exposed to the sun.
02:35Our leather seats are also prone because the components are made from combustible materials.
02:47Is it okay for the authorities to park the vehicles?
02:52Ivan, the authorities are okay with it. It's better to park the vehicles in the dark so that the overheating can be avoided.
03:00It's also better if the vehicle is checked yearly or for maintenance of the electrical wiring so that the incident of the fire can be avoided. Ivan.
03:11Thank you very much John Ponsoy of GMA Regional TV, One North, Central Luzon.
