00:00Let's find out the situation in Navotas where the flood reached the roof in some places and then it reached the Tuliahan River.
00:06We have with us Salima Refran. Salima.
00:09Susan, we are here in the Mel Lopez Boulevard in the middle of Manila and Navotas.
00:18We were stranded here for a few hours and it has been 5 p.m. since we crossed the R10 in Navotas.
00:26On the left and right, the flood reached the roads of NBBS and Barangay NBBN.
00:33Unfortunately, we were not able to cross the fish port because the flood reached up to Bewang.
00:41Only big trucks were able to enter.
00:46Earlier, we saw trucks of the military and the Philippine Coast Guard entering to carry out various rescue operations.
00:55Earlier, we talked to Mayor John Raytiangco and he told us that yesterday, they ordered a preemptive evacuation, but some did not make it.
01:08Eighty percent of the barangays were affected by the flood.
01:15Earlier, there were 1,000 residents in evacuation centers. All evacuation centers in the entire city were opened.
01:25Meanwhile, I would like to add, Susan, the press release of Congressman Toby Tiangco that he wants the company of the damaged barge
01:37at the navigational gate here in Navotas. You will remember that it was damaged last month and it will not be able to go up.
01:44That's the reason why the water is not flowing fast. Even though it hasn't rained yet, it's already flooded here in Navotas.
01:52According to him, during the pandemic, their pumping stations were 24, but the flooding was controlled because their floodgate was in order.
02:01But now, their pumping stations are 81. That's why the floodgate is broken and it's hard for the water to go down.
02:09He wants the company to be legally compensated.
02:13That's the latest news from Manila and Navotas.
02:17Thank you very much Salima Refran.
