00:00The University Belt in Manila has not been able to escape the floods.

00:05Some nearby are waiting for the water to overflow like a beach party.

00:10Live from Espana Boulevard, I'm Rafi Tima.

00:14Rafi.

00:18Atom, we're here in Espana, which has been flooded since this morning.

00:22That's why the commuters who usually come here are just walking.

00:26Here behind me, you can see small barges that are ferrying passengers for a fee.

00:33That's what they've been working on all afternoon because of the floods here in Espana Boulevard.

00:40Earlier, I was able to get a drone of the length of Espana, which has just been flooded again.

00:46That's why the commuters are walking from Quiapo, where there are no vehicles,

00:51towards the direction of Mabuhay Rotonda and Quezon City.

00:55Let's also take a look at Quezon Boulevard, where the roads are partially flooded.

01:00The vehicles are just on the side of Recto Avenue because the entire area around Quiapo has been flooded.

01:06Because of the high water level, the commuters are walking in the middle of Espana.

01:10Some of them have been walking for hours because there are no vehicles.

01:14Others are moving vehicles when they can't anymore.

01:19In Santa Cruz, Manila, this is also the situation.

01:21Almost all streets are flooded.

01:24But in Quericada Street, there's a beach party.

01:27They say it's a great opportunity to have fun while monitoring the flood or not.

01:33This is better than knocking on their houses that are also flooded.

01:38But many of us who passed by earlier were not able to have fun because of the chaos due to the floods.

01:43Here's what some of us talked about.

01:47We were the only ones who were able to walk to the other side.

01:51It's also difficult here in Manila when there's a flood of this magnitude.

01:59It's not like in the province.

02:01It's difficult if it's always like this.

02:03There should be drainage.

02:06We need to throw proper garbage.

02:16Atom, now that there are almost no commuters walking here,

02:19there are still many people walking here in the province of Espana.

02:25But they are looking for food.

02:27Most of the establishments here are closed.

02:30That's why you need to go out of your house and walk in the flood to find food.

02:35That's the latest from Espana.

02:37Atom.

02:39Thank you very much.

02:40Rafi Tima.

02:46Espana.

02:47Thank you.
