00:00Yesterday, some passengers were stranded while waiting for their flight to some port, like Batangas Port.
00:07It was broadcasted live there.
00:09Who is it, Gaston? Who is it?
00:15The heavy rain and strong winds continue to pour here in Batangas Port,
00:20where yesterday, all ships' flights were suspended and where more than 200 passengers are still stranded.
00:30The heavy rain and strong winds continue to pour here in Batangas Port,
00:40where yesterday, all ships' flights were suspended and where more than 200 passengers are stranded.
00:47In the middle of the raging sea, a ship was hit by a strong wind and strong waves.
00:54The heavy rain and strong winds continue to pour here in Batangas Port,
00:59which is dangerous for sea vehicles if there are no passengers.
01:03But if the situation worsens, it may also be dangerous for passengers who are stranded inside the passenger terminal.
01:12There are already 240 passengers stranded here and some are still stranded at the terminal yesterday.
01:19According to international standards, passengers are allowed to stay at the ferry terminal whenever there is a storm.
01:25But since there is no longer a possibility for stranded passengers, they are allowed to enter and stay at the terminal.
01:32Although it was allowed for them to enter, even though it is beyond the standards of the port,
01:39because there is inclement weather, the top management, the GM, has a directive
01:43to be ready to evacuate in case the waves get stronger and the waves get stronger because it is impossible to enter here.
01:51Inside the terminal, the doors were closed due to the strong winds.
01:56The windows are already open.
01:58Some passengers are also worried.
02:01I'm really worried because I wanted to go home yesterday.
02:05We were not able to go home.
02:07It's okay as long as we're eating here.
02:10At sunset, the passengers were transferred to the back of the terminal building.
02:15The PDRRMO also ordered that they continue to look for passengers because it is possible that on Saturday or Friday,
02:22the ships will return to normal.
02:29Until now, the stranded passengers are still inside the passenger terminal at Batangas Port.
02:38Although they are receiving help and food from the Philippine Ports Authority,
02:43all facilities and food outlets in the terminal are still open.
02:49Mel.
02:50Thank you very much, Chino Gaston.
02:53Four barangays in Baguio City are being guarded by the authorities because of the landslide.
02:58We will update you on the situation there.
03:00In Pagtutok Live, Sandra Rinaldo, Sandra.
03:04Emil, Baguio City and Benguet are already under Signal No. 3.
03:09All afternoon, the weather has been gloomy.
03:13It started to rain last night.
03:15However, we still have a few people who were able to visit the City of Pines.
03:25The sky is gloomy.
03:26The wind is cold.
03:28That's why earlier this afternoon in Burnham Park,
03:30some of our countrymen continued to visit even though the City is under Signal No. 2.
03:35Three of these friends came from Canada that we met in Burnham Park.
03:40Because the hotel is already booked and the schedule of visits is already scheduled,
03:45they continued their walk.
03:47We really continued because we still have a lot of booked accommodations.
03:51So from here, we will go to La Union and Vigan.
03:54Have you monitored?
03:55Yes.
03:56Yes.
03:57Have you monitored?
03:58Yes.
03:59Yes.
04:00Sandra Bayudang will continue her walk earlier after attending the reunion.
04:05We should continue until tomorrow.
04:07We just cut it because the storm is already here.
04:11These students just continued their walk while the storm is not hitting yet.
04:16Earlier, after we finished our exam, the reinforcement, it was very stressful.
04:24According to the Baguio CDRRMO,
04:26it is expected that the storm will pass by 2 o'clock in the early morning
04:31and by 5 o'clock in the early morning, the heaviest rain will be possible.
04:36Four barangays are being monitored for possible landslides.
04:39Two lagoons are possible for water to rise and flood.
04:44That's why they are being monitored.
04:46If it can be postponed, just postpone it.
04:49Reschedule it due to health and safety reasons.
04:52Because it is expected that when the rain starts,
04:55there will be a lot of garbage, a lot will be thrown away.
04:58Go there.
05:00What we will do is we will monitor this.
05:07Emil, tomorrow, the LGU is reminding the residents and the tourists here
05:13to stay inside their houses or hotels if there is no important land outside.
05:20That's all for now from Baguio City, Emil.
05:23Thank you very much, Sandra Aguinaldo.

06:24Other rescue operations and evacuation centers are also ready.
06:28We should remain ready and alert.
06:31We should not be complacent.
06:33We should remind the parents, especially the children,
06:36that there is no entrance.
06:38We should not force them to play or swim in our rivers.
