00:00 The government agencies are continuously moving to fight the affected by the typhoon Agjon.

00:08 Relief goods are also positioned, as are various response groups,

00:12 to ensure zero casualties in the storm.

00:16 This is the story of Joshua Garcia.

00:18 At the same time of the unbearable rain that is now experienced by the tropical cyclone Agjon,

00:26 the Office of Civil Defense is reminding the public, especially those who will travel to the Caracatana.

00:31 If you have a walk that you can postpone to our countrymen,

00:36 it's not that important,

00:38 but we should postpone it for now,

00:40 especially if you will be riding a boat in between.

00:44 If there is a signal, the Coast Guard will not allow it.

00:49 So, chances are you will be stranded.

00:52 In the last OCD data, the number of affected people is not less than 8,000.

00:57 The number of affected people is estimated to be between 500 families or 2,700 individuals.

01:03 While there are more than 5,000 passengers in the port,

01:06 with more than 700 rolling cargo, 40 vessels, and 10 motorbikes stranded in the Calabar Zone,

01:12 in Maropa, Regions 5, 7, and 8.

01:15 In addition, the OCD also promised relief goods, food and non-food items,

01:20 even the funds for the needs of the affected families.

01:24 This has been prepositioned for a long time in the warehouses of our 17 regional offices,

01:31 and also here in our central office.

01:34 So, we just want to say that we have enough.

01:38 This is on top of the resources of the local governments,

01:42 and at the same time of the DSWD.

01:47 In the monitoring of the DOST, they do not see the possibility of flooding.

01:52 Instead, the non-stop flooding of Ambuklao, Binga, and San Roque has helped to bring these back to normal water level.

01:59 The General Flood Advisories are also continuing to release their hopes in Region 3, 4A, 4B, 5, 6, 7, 8, and CAR.

02:08 While the places in NCR, Pasig, Marikina, Tuliahan, Laguna de Bayo River Basin are also being abused

02:14 by the possible flash flood and landslide.

02:17 The Department of Social Welfare and Development is also working hard on the areas

02:21 where the stranded passengers are being held for the time being since last Friday.

02:26 It is expected that the Philippine Area of Responsibility will issue a statement on Wednesday.

02:31 Meanwhile, the Philippine Coast Guard will strive to help to ensure zero casualties in the storm.

02:37 The PCG is now on full alert, and the Deployable Response Group is on standby

02:41 in the areas where the storm will pass to assist the local government units.

02:45 The fishermen are also being given a warning, especially the small boats, to avoid the flooding.
