00:00Aside from Metro Manila, the price freeze was also implemented by the Department of Trade and Industry in other places that declared a state of calamity.

00:08President Bambang Marcos went around the affected areas and there were reports of missing people.

00:14Let's witness this with Ivan Myrina.

00:19The roads were flooded again.

00:23Many residents were trapped.

00:26Even hospitals and other establishments were flooded.

00:30Cars were also submerged.

00:33Flooding was widespread.

00:35There was no sign of rain because of the heavy rainstorm.

00:39According to the Philippine National Police, 21 people were injured, 5 were missing, and 15 were injured.

00:46The price freeze was also implemented by the DTI in places that declared a state of calamity.

00:52In the briefing that the President called earlier, he seemed to lack the information that will give him hope.

00:59In addition to the Office of Civil Defense, there was also a flood in Pinzala.

01:29It's not very useful for me to hear that 164 requests for rescue were made.

01:35That means nothing.

01:37Where?

01:39130 of them were from one place.

01:41We went there right away.

01:43For him to see Pinzala more clearly, the President went around some of the most flooded areas, starting from Valenzuela.

01:51Even on MacArthur Highway, the floodplains were flooded.

01:55The GMA Integrated Use is still in effect around the President's house in Valenzuela City.

02:00We are here in the area where the flood is still high.

02:04That's why we are driving in the high trucks because the cars can't handle the high flood here.

02:12Many residents are struggling to walk in the flood from Tuhon to Hita.

02:16Many businesses in Pinzala are closed.

02:19Every resident in Pinzala has a need for help or a request for help.

02:25After the briefing from Mayor Wes Gatchalian,

02:28the President again lacked the information that will give him hope for the water in the dams.

02:34Yesterday, for example, a dam was flooded in Tulyahan River,

02:39which may have added to the flooding in some parts of Valenzuela.

02:42We have a weakness in communication.

02:45If the dam is going to be opened, the downstream communities and the LGUs need to know.

02:53From Valenzuela, the President also passed through Ubando and Malabon

02:57to Navotas where the reason for the heavy flooding is found,

03:02Navotas Navigation Gate that was once damaged.

03:06He first raised the MMDA and LPWH to face any temporary way

03:12while the company that damaged the gate is not yet completed.

03:14I want to see what the damage is so that is there something that we can do.

03:18Let's pour a sandbag or something. I don't know.

03:22But we have to get an engineer to look at it and to tell us what we can do

03:29so that the water doesn't continue to flow in.

03:32The water is still high.

03:34The President also went around the evacuation center in Maragay, Malanday,

03:37but he didn't go down.

03:39Because even in the evacuation center itself, the water is still high.

03:43Thousands of Filipinos remain in the evacuation centers.

03:46Among them is Maria Teresa Ragul,

03:49who gave birth to her baby girl here in the evacuation center yesterday

03:53and named her after the baby, Karina.

03:57For GMA Integrated News, I'm Ivan May.

04:00Pray for success.

04:03My fellow Filipinos, let's be successful together.
