00:00Super Typhoon Julian left a big mark on the lives of some fishermen on Sabtang Island in Batanes.
00:13The Jemay Capuso Foundation crossed the island,
00:17and bought relief goods to carry out Operation Bayanihan.
00:24Because of the sudden movement of the Super Typhoon Julian,
00:30the province of Batanes, which is under the State of Calamity, was flooded.
00:37Sabtang Island was one of the affected areas,
00:42particularly the barangay Sumnanga or better known as Fisherman's Village.
00:47The creek is big, but the volcano is small.
00:51So, once there is a broken tree, it will become a floodplain.
00:58Their damage is big, so they need urgent help.
01:02Even though their water sources are damaged.
01:07The fishermen here are in a big problem.
01:10How will they be able to swim again?
01:1340 boats were damaged, and 6 were completely lost.
01:19Two of the lost boats were owned by Jerry's family.
01:23They only found a broken boat engine.
01:27I just cried when I saw the two boats that were lost.
01:32Back to zero now. We can't swim anymore.
01:36We can only look at the sea.
01:40With the help of the Office of Civil Defense,
01:43the relief goods and water of the GMA Capuzzo Foundation
01:48arrived in Batanes last Saturday.
01:50They boarded the Philippine Air Force C-130 plane.
01:54We also crossed the sea and boarded a boat
01:57to reach more than 600 families there.
02:00Thank you very much, GMA Capuzzo.
02:03Even though our island is far, you are reaching it.
02:07The GMA Capuzzo Foundation is still carrying out
02:11the operation Bayanihan for the people
02:14affected by the Super Typhoon Julián in Batanes.
02:19Batanes is known for its beautiful paradise.
02:22But for a while, the Super Typhoon Julián
02:26left a deep scar.
02:29It is one of the most polluted islands in Itbaya.
02:33That is why the GMA Capuzzo Foundation
02:36asked for help.
02:41Whenever a typhoon passes
02:43in the northernmost tip of the country,
02:46it is usually Itbaya in Batanes
02:49that is hit first because of its location.
02:53Batanes is also used as a reference point,
02:56especially in Itbaya when it comes to typhoons.
03:00That is why the people of Batanes
03:02are used to typhoons.
03:04But when the Super Typhoon Julián hit Manalasa,
03:10Juana did not expect that the typhoon
03:13would destroy her house
03:15that her son, Lani, built.
03:19I feel sorry for them
03:22because they have no place to live.
03:24It's all because of me.
03:27Whatever I have,
03:29I use it little by little.
03:35From Basco,
03:36the trip took two to three hours
03:38to Itbaya by boat.
03:41But there was one big challenge,
03:43the strong typhoon.
03:47Fortunately, with the help of the Philippine Air Force,
03:50the GMA Capuzzo Foundation arrived on the island
03:54and boarded a so-called helicopter.
03:57We were able to distribute food packs and drinking water
04:01to more than 1,500 individuals
04:04affected by the typhoon there.
04:07Our immediate needs here are construction materials
04:11for the housing,
04:12the damaged houses.
04:14Another is food and medical supplies.
04:16We also need drinking water, rice.
04:20It's a big help
04:22especially now that we can't buy rice.
04:28Where will you look for shelter
04:30if you can't find a place to return to?
04:33That is the calvary of the people
04:36affected by the super-typhoon Ulian.
04:40The GMA Capuzzo Foundation continues
04:43to provide assistance
04:45under Operation Bayanihan.
04:51It's been more than a week
04:52since the super-typhoon Ulian hit Batanes.
04:57But some of the residents
04:59are still in shock
05:00from the strong typhoon.
05:04Gina is the only one left in her house
05:08after the typhoon.
05:11She said she tied it up
05:13but the strong wind still couldn't do it.
05:16I could feel the wind.
05:19I asked my partner
05:20if we could leave
05:22because we don't want to lose our house.
05:26She also experienced flooding
05:28in the town of Uyugan.
05:30That's why she decided
05:32to leave her house in Bato
05:34even if it was dangerous.
05:36This is where she hid
05:38the things she saved from the typhoon.
05:41We couldn't live in our old house
05:43because it was all destroyed.
05:46After the typhoon,
05:48our house was also destroyed.
05:50Then the typhoon came again.
05:52I couldn't get a job
05:54because we had to work.
05:57The super-typhoon left
05:59a huge impact
06:01on three islands of Batanes,
06:03Batan, Sabtang, and Itbayat.
06:07That's why the GMA Capuzzo Foundation
06:10immediately went to the affected islands
06:13to distribute food packs
06:15and drinking water
06:17to 14,000 individuals.
06:20We also distributed food
06:22and medicines
06:24to the Provincial Health Office.
06:26This is a huge help
06:28because we can assure
06:31that after disaster,
06:33we won't know
06:34when our supplies will arrive.
