00:00 Good afternoon to all of us.
00:02 We have issued a typhoon bulletin number 4.
00:07 As of now, we can see the possible area, Region 4A, Calabar Zone, Bicol Region, as well as Eastern Visayas.
00:18 Based on our estimate, in terms of the standing graph, 21,000 hectares are impacted by the typhoon.
00:31 Majority of these are rice.
00:36 We will look at the validation from the government to see if this is totally damaged or partially damaged.
00:48 Because that's the only way to know if there is a chance for the crop to continue or if we need to replant and replant.
01:04 Thank you.
