00:00We will all be together in this!

00:14The storm is getting stronger as it moves away from the Philippine area of responsibility according to the forecast.

00:20But it is still expected that it will continue to rain in the next few days.

00:24Until now, many places in Luzon are still flooded.

00:27According to a barangay near Laguna de Valle,

00:31Niko Wahe is a witness.

00:33Niko?

00:37Atom Pia is still flooded here in Barangay De La Paz in Binan, Laguna.

00:42Unlike other places where the water rises quickly when it rains,

00:46here, the rain lasts for a week.

00:48Sometimes, it lasts for a month.

00:50Barangay De La Paz, Binan, Laguna

00:55Barangay De La Paz, Binan, Laguna is one of the places near Laguna de Valle.

01:00That is why if it continues to rain heavily, like the storm Enteng,

01:04it will only last for a minute and it will be flooded.

01:07Today, it did not rain that much, but the flood is still high.

01:11Actually, the water is just staying in the canals.

01:14It has been a problem for a long time.

01:16Aside from the fact that they are in a low place,

01:20they are also near Laguna.

01:23So, once the water level in Laguna de Valle is high,

01:32the water automatically goes to the residential areas.

01:37The barangay is also next to the river,

01:39that is why they are the catch basin when it rains.

01:42The residents have nothing to do.

01:44We are used to it.

01:46There is nothing else. We are just here.

01:51No matter how fast the flood enters the barangay,

01:54it is slow to come out.

01:56The water level in Laguna de Valle is already high.

01:59That is why if it cannot come out immediately,

02:01it will go to Manila Bay through the Pindan Channel and Manggahan Floodway.

02:04It will last for a week.

02:06Sometimes, it lasts for a month.

02:08The recent flood did not last for a long time.

02:11It lasted for two weeks.

02:14But as of the moment,

02:17before the recent flood came,

02:19we were able to recover.

02:21Actually, it was already gone.

02:23Suddenly, the flood came again.

02:25So, back to zero.

02:27Because the residents are used to the constant flooding,

02:30they have learned to adjust to the time.

02:32The houses here, if it is not high,

02:35have second floors.

02:37Because of this road,

02:39the flood reaches up to the neck.

02:41After the flood,

02:43the house cannot move because of the stroke.

02:46It is not just a week.

02:48It is already a month.

02:50How many months?

02:52It is already a month.

02:54It started in August.

02:56And now,

02:58it is really hard.

03:00It is a good thing that the sofa she is lying on

03:02was not reached.

03:04Despite the flood,

03:06many residents do not stop looking for food.

03:09Like Mads,

03:11she is looking for vegetables and popcorn.

03:13This is for eating.

03:15This is for buying rice

03:18and vegetables.

03:20She has been living here for two decades

03:22and experienced the worst flood in Barangay De La Paz.

03:25Like Mads,

03:27the residents are still alive.

03:29The barangay and the houses

03:31provide food.

03:33I go inside.

03:35Sometimes, I just walk.

03:37Here, we are banking.

03:38It is really hard

03:40when it rains like this.

03:46Atompia,

03:48the residents are not allowed to evacuate.

03:50That is why the rescue team of the barangay

03:52is always on standby

03:54to evacuate the residents

03:56even if the water level rises.

03:58And live from Binan, Laguna,

04:00for GMA Integrated News,

04:02I am Nico Aje, your witness.

04:04It is expected that the water level will rise tomorrow.

04:05The water level will rise tomorrow.

04:07The next day, the flood will be heavy.

04:09The search for a fish

04:12that swam in the river this Friday

04:14before the flood came.

04:16I am your witness, Ian Cruz.

04:20The residents are slowly moving

04:23the fish that were caught in the river

04:25to the road, Isabela.

04:27The fish are in the water

04:29and are dead.

04:31According to the barangay,

04:33the water level suddenly rose

04:35to the level of the cows.

04:37The Bakulot Bridge

04:39in Ilagan City

04:41could not be seen

04:43because of the flood.

04:45The same is the case in the town of San Agustin.

04:47The overflow bridge

04:49in Sinawangan Norte could not be crossed.

04:51In Dinalungan, Aurora,

04:53Jessica could not think

04:55and find her way

04:57after her wife, Egay,

04:59did not return home this Friday.

05:01It is hard.

05:05I don't know if Ian is still alive

05:07or dead.

05:14I still hope that Ian is alive.

05:17Yesterday, Roger went home

05:19and another boat

05:21with three other fishermen.

05:23But Egay was not with them.

05:25We only saw the light

05:27at around 8 or 10.

05:29But it was already far away.

05:31Then the lights changed.

05:32We could not see anything.

05:34There was no light.

05:36The local government

05:38of Dinalungan

05:40is planning to conduct

05:42a search and rescue.

05:44More than 50 residents

05:46were evacuated

05:48to Peñaranda, Nueva Ecija

05:50because of the flood

05:52from Peñarandanam.

05:54The river also overflowed

05:56so the roads

05:58in Saguday, Quirino Province

06:00could not be crossed.

06:02A landslide occurred

06:04at Bontocalinga Road last night.

06:06Clearing operations were carried out

06:08and the road was cleared.

06:10But the landslide

06:12at Cervantes Road,

06:14Ilocos Sur

06:16by stranded motorists

06:18was also an issue.

06:20In Bangued, Abra,

06:22heavy rains and winds

06:24were felt due to the strong winds.

06:26Some parts of Kalasio, Pangasinan

06:28were also flooded

06:30forcing residents

06:32to evacuate their homes.

06:34The Office of Civil Defense Region 2

06:36also issued a warning

06:38that water will flow

06:40from its reservoir.

06:42A spillway will open

06:44at 2 pm on September 4.

06:46For GMI Integrated News,

06:48Ian Cruz is your eyewitness.

06:51A barangay captain

06:53and his wife

06:55in Davao City

06:57were rescued.

06:59Based on police investigation,

07:00a while ago,

07:02a SUV was driven by the barangay captain

07:04of Datu, Salumay and his wife

07:06when two suspects

07:08and a rain of bullets

07:10blocked them.

07:12The suspects were able to escape.

07:14The bullets hit the house's roof

07:16while the captain was not injured.

07:18The investigation continues

07:20on the motive of the crime.

07:22The Kingdom of Jesus Christ

07:24accused the police

07:26of entering a house's basement

07:28in their compound.

07:30RGL Relator

07:32of GMA Regional TV is your eyewitness.

07:36The Kingdom of Jesus Christ

07:38showed the footage

07:40of a suspect entering

07:42a house's basement

07:44inside the KOJC compound

07:46in Davao City.

07:48It was sent to Attorney Israelito Torreon,

07:50a lawyer of the group,

07:52who did not inform him.

07:54The suspect entered the basement

07:56of Jose Maria College

07:588 meters away

08:00by mistake.

08:02The PNP tricked him

08:04into entering the compound.

08:06The allegations

08:08were made by Attorney Torreon

08:10and the group.

08:12Together with the media,

08:14Attorney Torreon went to the place.

08:16Allow us access to JMC basement.

08:18I have been requesting

08:20confirmation for a few days

08:22if the interrogation is true.

08:24Until now,

08:26you have not answered.

08:28He tried to enter the basement

08:30by mistake.

08:32You are under arrest warrant.

08:34This is not a search warrant.

08:36You do not have the right

08:38to conduct mining operations there.

08:40The team leader went out.

08:42If I get hurt here,

08:44I will file a case against you.

08:46If I get hurt here,

08:48I will file a case against you.

08:50I will file a case against you.

08:52I will file a case against you.

08:54In one statement,

08:56Attorney Torreon pointed out

08:58that the PNP still does not see

09:00the tunnel

09:02after 11 days of mining.

09:04So there is no basis

09:06and the PNP's belief

09:08that they are looking for

09:10is just a hoax.

09:12But the PNP still believes

09:14that Kibuloy is in the compound.

09:16Until now,

09:18we still believe

09:20that he is there

09:22and we trust him.

09:24There is always time

09:26for everything.

09:28And it will come

09:30to an end.

09:32The police will not stop

09:34until Pastor Kibuloy is arrested

09:36for child abuse

09:38and human trafficking.

09:40We have a direct interest

09:42in my children.

09:45But we will not fight.

09:47We will not fight.

09:51Let's remember

09:53why we are here.

09:55According to Torreon,

09:57there is no need for a search warrant

09:58for their location

10:00in the KOJC compound.

10:02There is no search warrant here.

10:04The search warrant

10:06is for the contraband.

10:08We are not saying

10:10that there is contraband

10:12inside the KOJC.

10:14In the middle of the interrogation

10:16of Pastor Kibuloy,

10:18the Commission on Human Rights

10:20monitors and investigates

10:22if human rights are violated.

10:24As far as we know,

10:26freedom of religion

10:28is prohibited by the PNP

10:30to use their cathedral

10:32and place a cordon around it.

10:34The Commission reminds

10:36that the police operation

10:38should be limited

10:40to carrying out

10:42an arrest warrant

10:44and not a search warrant

10:46for their location.

10:48It should be carried out

10:50according to the law

10:52and principles

10:54of human rights.

10:56However,

10:58the Commission reminds

11:00the members

11:02not to hinder the police

11:04in their duty

11:06to carry out

11:08an arrest warrant for Kibuloy.

11:10For GMA Insigrid,

11:12I am R. E. Jill Relator

11:14of GMA Regional TV.

11:16Your witness.

11:18According to the lawyer

11:20of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ,

11:22Attorney Israelito Torreon,

11:24the PNP Region 11 Chief

11:26Police Brigadier General

11:28of the Republic of the Philippines,

11:30if Kibuloy is just walking

11:32in the compound,

11:34why does he need to destroy

11:36the foundation of Jose Maria College?

11:38Torreon also admitted

11:40that his family is under threat

11:42of death

11:44so that they can hide

11:46their mission

11:48by asking for sympathy

11:50from the public.

11:52One of the major

11:54victims of Hurricane Enteng

11:56is the province of Rizal.

11:58Three people were killed

12:00after their house

12:02was flooded.

12:04Two more are being searched.

12:06Witness, Marizo Mali.

12:08Help! Help!

12:10These rescuers are helping

12:12in the city of Upper Banaba,

12:14Barangay San Luis, Antipolo

12:16because of the flooding yesterday

12:18that affected not only the house

12:20of the Negro family

12:22but also five of its members.

12:24It only happened for 10 minutes.

12:26Suddenly, the water was flooded

12:28and the house was completely

12:30destroyed.

12:32The house was completely

12:34destroyed.

12:36The house was completely

12:38destroyed.

12:40The death was found

12:42in the river yesterday

12:44at around 1 p.m.

12:46by his nephew,

12:48Roan,

12:50and his mother,

12:52Catherine.

12:54Until this morning,

12:56three more were being searched.

12:58I don't know if

13:00I'll be able to escape.

13:02I don't know if I'll be able

13:04to escape.

13:06If not,

13:08that's how it is.

13:10I don't know if I'll be able

13:12to escape.

13:14I just want to go home.

13:17Before 4 p.m.,

13:1911 of them were found

13:21under a tree.

13:23According to the rescuers,

13:25the family confirmed

13:26that one of their members

13:28was the victim.

13:30The rescue operation was not easy

13:32especially when it was raining heavily.

13:34The ground was very muddy

13:36so it was difficult to move

13:38because of the big rocks

13:40to know if someone was trapped

13:42underneath.

13:44The road was very steep.

13:46We estimated it to be

13:4875 to 80 meters

13:50from ground zero

13:52to there.

13:54In fact, the child,

13:56we found him here.

13:58When you removed the rocks,

14:00did you smell anything?

14:02We smelled something

14:04but we couldn't determine

14:06if it was a human or an animal.

14:08Even though our chance

14:10is small,

14:12we need to be sure.

14:14If the rain continues,

14:16we'll stop.

14:18We can't risk

14:20the lives

14:22of our rescuers.

14:24Actually,

14:26they understand

14:28what the victims felt.

14:36In Barangay Hulo,

14:38in the town of Pililya,

14:40a house was given

14:42to the Pililya River

14:44yesterday,

14:46with a kitchen and bathroom.

14:48The family left the house

14:50before it was flooded.

14:52It was very scary.

14:54It was a sunny day

14:56but it was a rainy night.

14:58If we were here,

15:00our family would be gone.

15:02We are thankful

15:04that our family is still alive.

15:06Broken walls

15:08and broken windows

15:10are the only way

15:12to escape the hardship.

15:14In this row,

15:16three houses collapsed

15:18and the river in front of them.

15:20In some places in Pililya-Rizal,

15:22the residents of the house

15:24also helped in rescuing

15:26the neighbors

15:28in Sitio Sala Mabuluhan,

15:30SK Kagawa Joshua Sanggalang.

15:32Even though they were there,

15:34the whole house was swept away.

15:36Our house was swept away

15:38and it slowly fell.

15:40It was painful.

15:42It felt like

15:44you were swept away

15:46because we were

15:48slowly pushing it.

15:50That's what happened.

15:51We have a business

15:53inside the river.

15:57The water level in the barangay

15:59was high.

16:01I think our house was swept away.

16:03When it fell,

16:05the water left a deep pudic.

16:08They had to use

16:10a pain loader

16:12to clean it.

16:14Because of the flooding yesterday,

16:16the pudic is now leaking.

16:18The store

16:19is now full

16:21of motorcycles

16:23that are being repaired

16:25after the flood.

16:27The store was also flooded.

16:29The water level is so high.

16:31It's a flood.

16:33One of the first places

16:35to be flooded

16:37is Imelda Avenue in San Andres

16:39where the nearby subdivisions are located.

16:41There are a lot of stranded people.

16:43These are the stranded people

16:45in Village East.

16:50That's the PWD.

16:52That's the child.

16:54Some of you are going down.

16:56That's Nanay.

16:58According to the Local Government of Cainta,

17:00the situation was dire

17:02when some subdivisions

17:04were able to get water

17:06from the Antipolo River.

17:08That's why the water level

17:10quickly rose.

17:12Floods have also occurred

17:14in many places in Cainta.

17:16Residents are now busy

17:17getting water from the river.

17:19According to Jerry,

17:21the flood they experienced

17:23when they first lived here

17:25in the 1980s

17:27is just the beginning.

17:29But as time goes by,

17:31the flood problem

17:33is getting worse.

17:35How high is the water level?

17:37Up to your ears?

17:39Yes.

17:41What are the discharges

17:43inside?

17:44The water level

17:46was raised

17:48to be able to cook.

17:50According to the municipality,

17:52all 7 barangays of Cainta were flooded.

17:54We receive water from the mountains

17:56and other towns

17:58across the creeks.

18:00At the same time,

18:02we receive water from the sky.

18:04So the volume is really high.

18:06The municipality is now

18:08focusing on programs

18:10to fund the construction

18:12of pumping stations.
