00:00The barangay of Santa Inez in Tanay, Rizal has been trying to reach the affected residents for three days
00:08because of the typhoon Karina and Habagat.
00:10President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. led the situational briefing in Lawigan.
00:16This is what Patrick De Jesus reported.
00:23Because of the heavy rainfall due to the typhoon Karina and Habagat,
00:28the residents of Santa Inez in Tanay, Rizal are still struggling to reach the affected residents.
00:35This is what President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. showed
00:39when he led the situational briefing earlier in Lawigan.
00:43The road was damaged, there was a flood,
00:46the family of Santa Inez in Tanay, Rizal was able to reach 3,000 people
00:50who are now isolated.
00:52Santa Inez is up there.
00:55For how many days already, they can't get food,
00:57the barangay can't sell food there.
01:01We have been trying to, every day.
01:03In fact, today, we still attempted to go up.
01:07What's the problem?
01:09They're not on the road.
01:13There are roads that were damaged in Tanay.
01:16The road was damaged?
01:18Yes, the road.
01:19So they were saying that they're looking at an aerial view.
01:24The President is focusing on this.
01:26That's why he ordered the deployment of all the assets of the government
01:30to be able to reach the needs of the residents there as soon as possible,
01:35such as food, water, and medicines.
01:38Is the water still that high?
01:40Until now?
01:42Like in the video?
01:43Until now, it's still the same.
01:45It's still the same?
01:46Even in August, it was the same?
01:47No, not in August.
01:48It's not that high?
01:50It's still high, and the water is coming from far away.
01:54We have to get those supplies up to those people
01:57who haven't been there for three days.
01:59I'm always thinking of the elderly and the children.
02:05They will be affected.
02:08So let's find a way to do that.
02:12I'll call up DND, AFP, helicopters, for the meantime,
02:18let's find a way to get food and water.
02:25Six places in the province of Rizal were the first to declare a state of calamity.
02:31These include the towns of San Mateo, Cainta, Taytay, Morong, Rodriguez, and Angonok.
02:39In the President's aerial inspection of a floodway in Rizal,
02:43he was able to see how affected the residents were by the flood.
02:47But according to the LGU,
02:49the Upper Wawad Dam Project helped to reduce the flood.
02:55If without it, I feel that most likely San Mateo and Montalban would be down,
03:01and definitely Marikina and parts of Quezon City,
03:04and even Pasig would be affected because of Laguna Lake.
03:08Mr. President, actually, we have submitted last year to the DPWH,
03:15we have a pending plan in planning and services
03:20for the Wawad Dam Reservoir downstream area.
03:26The President also greeted earlier the distribution of aid to San Mateo, Rizal,
03:32Patrick De Jesus for Pambansan TV in Bagong, Philippines.
