00:00There is a high gale warning for many countrymen due to Hurricane Christine.

00:06Because of the number of ships traveling, thousands of passengers are stranded in different areas.

00:13J.P. Soriano was shocked.

00:16J.P.?

00:18And Mel, here in Manila, more than 600 passengers are stranded in different areas.

00:24One ship is traveling to Iloilo, Bacolod, and the other is unable to leave Manila

00:30after canceling their trip to Pobrinja due to Hurricane Christine.

00:39At 2 p.m., the ship left for Iloilo, Bacolod, and it was canceled.

00:45Many passengers have already left the North Port Passenger Terminal in Manila.

00:49But some have no choice but to stay here because they are from other provinces

00:54and there is no way to continue in Manila.

00:57Some, like Shane and Felisa, traveled to Manila to see a specialist.

01:03We will just wait.

01:05Because it will be too far if we come back.

01:08We will just stay here.

01:10If we come back to Tangeg, we will have no money.

01:16We will die.

01:18We will lose our things.

01:21As for Romel, he traveled by ship from Zamboanga to Manila

01:26and to Iloilo, where he works.

01:29On his trip from Zamboanga to Manila yesterday, he was already exhausted.

01:35When we left Zamboanga, we were exhausted.

01:38After we finished eating on the ship, we were already tired.

01:43In Batangas Port, the trips to Puerto Galera and other parts of Oriental Mindoro,

01:50Occidental Mindoro, Romblon, and other places in Cabizayaan were canceled.

01:54Passengers were not allowed to continue because people were not allowed to enter the port.

02:00Some passengers were allowed to continue, but they were not allowed.

02:05That's why they were stuck in the middle of a store.

02:09Vehicles were saved in Del Gallego, Camarines Sur

02:12because PNP and AFP were blocking them.

02:15The vehicles were headed to Visayas, Masbate, and Catanduanes.

02:20According to the Philippine Coast Guard,

02:22there were more than 3,000 stranded passengers in 34 ports,

02:26aside from cargo and vehicles.

02:33And Mel, back here in Manila, there is no guarantee when the trip will continue

02:37because for now, the priority of the captain of this ship is the safety of the passengers.

02:44The problem of the passengers here now is their food and sleep.

02:49And that's the latest. Back to you, Mel.

02:53JP, do you have any help for the passengers who will spend the night in the port, JP?

03:06We haven't seen any food supply yet, but according to the shipping company,

03:12they are ready to provide additional help.

03:15And we are also seeing PPA officials here, as well as the Philippine Coast Guard.

03:20And they are ready to come here at any time.

03:22In fact, the passengers were transferred to a safer place here in the port

03:27because if it rains heavily, they need to be covered.

03:30So that's their priority right now, their safety, even if the storm, Christine, rises.

03:36I hope so. Thank you very much, JP Soriano.
