00:00It was also difficult for many residents of Quinta Rizal

00:03because of the flooding caused by heavy rain.

00:06700 families had to be evacuated, including trapped children, senior citizens, and PWD.

00:13This is true to what I have learned.

00:18Quinta Rizal is one of the areas that was hit by heavy rain in the province of Rizal.

00:24The water level is rising so fast.

00:28It's very heavy.

00:30One of the areas that was hit by the flood

00:32is the area of Imelda Avenue in the province of San Andres

00:35where the nearby subdivisions are located.

00:38There are a lot of stranded children.

00:41These are the stranded children in the village east.

00:49This was captured yesterday.

00:50This is a PWD child.

00:53While the barangay was evacuating the children trapped inside the village east subdivision.

00:58Some of you are going down.

00:59Your mother is worried.

01:01According to the local government of Quinta,

01:04the situation is dangerous

01:06when some parts of the houses of some subdivisions were destroyed

01:09because the water from Antipolo could not be drained.

01:13That's why the water level is rising so fast.

01:16In the nearby Vista Verde subdivision,

01:19the houses are submerged in colored water.

01:22This includes the house of the family of the senior citizen, Jerry Ligutan.

01:26Vehicles cannot enter the house

01:28that's why people have no choice

01:30but to jump into the river

01:32whether they like it or not.

01:35When the river is flooded,

01:38the problem is that it's in the middle of the water.

01:42It's garbage.

01:44In the nearby Karangalan village,

01:46residents can't walk because the water is at the entrance of the door.

01:51One of the residents

01:53swallowed the water along with the dog

01:56to escape first.

01:57Bye-bye, Laika.

01:59On West Bank Road,

02:01the water is colored when entering the houses.

02:04Here we are again.

02:07Our house is flooded again.

02:09It's really bad.

02:12This is bad.

02:15Earlier,

02:16the river was flooded in many places

02:18and Jerry,

02:19our informant,

02:21is already busy cleaning the house and garbage

02:24until the water level is high.

02:26They are experiencing this

02:27when they first lived here in the 1980s.

02:30But as time goes by,

02:33the problem of flooding is getting worse.

02:36The water has already entered our house.

02:38How high is the wall?

02:40Up to here.

02:42Up to your ears?

02:44Yes.

02:44What's inside?

02:46It looks like it's deep.

02:48We dug it up

02:50and then we raised our stove

02:54so that we can cook.

02:56According to the municipality,

02:58all seven barangays of Cainta were flooded.

03:00700 families or 1,500 individuals were evacuated.

03:04We receive water

03:06from the mountains and other towns

03:08that cross our creeks.

03:10At the same time, we receive water

03:12from the sky.

03:14So the volume is really high.

03:16The municipality has agreed

03:18to fund the construction

03:20of pumping stations

03:22and they hope that

03:24the national government will help them.

03:26We plan to install three more

03:28and then ongoing talks

03:30with DPWH

03:32another bigger pumping station

03:34and hopefully our floodgate will continue.
