00:00Water. Many residents of Manila are shouting that they are affected by water interruption after the Manila tube was damaged there.
00:07Here is the live news of James Agustin. James.
00:15Good morning.
00:16The whole of Magdamag until this time, the construction of the Manila tube is in full swing.
00:20The third-party contractor of the MMDA hit the backhoe of their pipeline yesterday.
00:27The drainage is being done in this part of Delpan Street in the city of Manila.
00:31Since last night, thousands of Manila customers have lost their water supply,
00:35not only here in the city of Manila, Igan, but also in the southern part of Metro Manila and Cavite.
00:46Liza only saved a small drum of water before they lost their supply last night in Barangay 12 in Tondo, Manila.
00:53Her son also went to school.
00:55It's really hard. First of all, we don't have our own water.
00:59We only have a bathroom, a toilet, and everything that we need.
01:04Now that we have a bathroom, we don't have a toilet and a toilet.
01:08The problem is that there's no water left, which is why Ellen is in trouble.
01:12It's hard because we don't have any washing machines that we can use.
01:18Last night, the bar and restaurant here in Barangay 275 in Binondo still did not have water supply.
01:25Even though they have a water tank, it's limited.
01:28The establishment is open 24 hours a day.
01:31It's really hard when there's no water supply because that's our main resource, especially in this establishment.
01:39In and out go the customers, especially flatwares, glassware.
01:43So we need to replenish from time to time.
01:46Thousands of Manila customers have lost their water supply since last night in the city of Manila.
01:52Many are also affected in Cavite, such as Bacoor, Imus, Cavite City, Kawit, Noveleta, and Rosario,
01:59as well as in Las Pinas, Pasay, and Paranaque.
02:02The reason for this is the 2.2-meter-diameter pipeline that is currently being built
02:08after an accident that hit the backhoe of a third-party contractor of MMDA
02:12in Del Pan Street Corner Recto Avenue.
02:15The incident happened at 3.30 yesterday afternoon.
02:19The contractor is doing a drainage in the area.
02:21We are currently drilling here.
02:23It's a bit hard so we replaced it with a breaker.
02:27When I broke it, we hit three breaks.
02:32We hit the broken one.
02:34At the moment, we don't know if there's a line in that area.
02:37The hit pipeline that brings water from the treatment plant of Manila in Quezon City
02:42will go to its customers in the south.
02:45The people of Manila are composing themselves.
02:48The water service interruption will last until 10 p.m.
02:53We will try to separate the water from the dam.
02:57We will do it little by little so that it will be available until midnight.
03:02We will just wait for the rations.
03:04They said there will be rations coming.
03:06We will just offer plastic instead to get disposable materials
03:13so that we won't have to consume water.
03:22I will just show you the part of the backhoe that is said to have hit the pipeline.
03:29It's only a few meters away or next to it.
03:31Manila has been barricaded here since last night.
03:34They have been composing themselves.
03:37We asked the people of Manila if it's possible for them to finish before 10 p.m.
03:43what they are composing here.
03:45But they can't say that yet because there's a lot that needs to be done.
03:49On the other side of the road, you can see the length of the drainage
03:54that is being done by the third-party contractor of MMDA
03:57as to why there's a backhoe here and why they are doing the rations here.
04:02That's the first news from Manila.
04:04I'm James Agustin for GEMA Integrated News.
