00:00Personally, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. learned of the situation and helped in the areas

00:07that were hit by the typhoon Carina and Habagat.

00:11The DILG Secretary, Ben Jarabalos, recommended that the state of Calamity, Calacang, Manila,

00:25Yes, Aljo, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ordered the relevant government agencies

00:35to take immediate action because of the continuous heavy rainfall caused by the typhoon Carina

00:41that hit Habagat.

00:44This is the President's priority, the situational briefing this morning here at NDRRMC in Camp Aguinaldo.

00:54This is where the President gave an update on the situation in Metro Manila and nearby areas

01:00affected by the rain.

01:03In the last day of the Office of Civil Defense, eight people were killed while one was missing.

01:10The total amount of assistance to the affected by the flood reached P29 million.

01:16And the DSWD also has P2.6 billion in standby and stockpile funds.

01:23One of the President's directives is to warn the residents who may be affected if the dams run dry.

01:31He also emphasized that all should be given immediate assistance and that it should be assisted

01:38by government agencies along with local government units.

01:44Our response so far has been good.

01:47I just told them to focus on the areas where we haven't received assistance yet.

01:58That will be the next priority of the DSWD and of course Public Works

02:08because if the roads are landslides, the DSWD should assist them.

02:16DILG Secretary Benhur Abalos recommended that the entire Metro Manila should be under State of Calamity.

02:23He will assist this afternoon at the MMDA Head Office in Pasig City under the leadership of Abalos.

02:29Aljo, here at NDRRMC, as you can see, the rain is still heavy.

02:35All day long, the rain is expected to continue and the weather is bad.

02:40That's why the government agencies are continuously on alert.

02:44This is also followed by the assistance here at NDRRMC earlier by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

02:51Aljo.
