00:00The amount of typhoon Hulian in Palayans in Ilocos Norte has reached more than 80 million pesos.
00:08In Batanes, many tourists are still stranded.
00:11Joseph Moro witnessed it.
00:17Look at how strong the super typhoon Hulian in Batanes is.
00:23The beauty of the province was replaced by images of destroyed houses and mansions.
00:28The telecommunications system here is very strong.
00:32Because of the frequent earthquakes, they can't contact each other.
00:40So the National Government, the Office of Civil Defense,
00:44we strengthened our radio system here.
00:47Some residents want to leave Batanes first because their livelihoods were destroyed.
00:52We don't have any income yet, so while we don't have power,
00:57but eventually when we get our power back, we will come back here.
01:01That's why there are no commercial flights outside the province.
01:05Aside from the residents, many tourists were stranded in Basco for a week.
01:10Like Jennifer who is from America.
01:12Her trip was cancelled five times.
01:15I can see that the wind is blowing.
01:18The clouds are flying on the roof.
01:20Of course, that's my first time to experience that.
01:24Signal number four.
01:26Today, a C-130 arrived for relief goods in the water,
01:30which was brought by OCD and DSWD for the residents.
01:34Those who want to ride, especially the tourists, are our priority.
01:38If you want to ride, it's only up to Lawag City.
01:42About 200 stranded residents and tourists, 70 of them, were able to ride the C-130.
01:48Some tourists who were stranded here in Basco in Batanes,
01:52because of the storm, were able to ride the C-130 of the government.
01:58This is not directed to Manila, but to Lawag first.
02:03They will look for a way to go home to their provinces.
02:08Some tourists who were stranded here in Batanes are still waiting for a ride.
02:14According to Batanes Governor Marilu Caico,
02:17the National Government will provide wood and iron for the damaged houses of the residents.
02:23He promised that we will be given iron.
02:26And the DNR will give us around 70,000 board feet of wood from Region 2.
02:39That's the only thing that can solve the problem of the damaged houses,
02:43the totally and partially damaged houses.
02:48It's free.
02:49The damage of the storm in Ilocos Norte is huge.
02:53The farmers are crying, laughing, and shivering.
02:56One of the six crops was damaged.
02:58The crops were not saved by the other farmers who are struggling this month.
03:04Yesterday, I cried.
03:06The crops will be destroyed.
03:10The damage of the storm in Palayans in the province is almost P85 million.
03:15We're hoping that with the recent typhoon damages, it will have a small effect.
03:22When it comes to the supply of electricity based on the monitoring of Ilocos Norte PDRMO,
03:27Adam is the only town in our houses that has not yet returned the supply.
03:32The provincial government is hoping to return 100% of the supply of electricity in the province before the weekend.
03:38For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, your witness.
