00:00Oh my God!
00:07Oh my God!
00:09I don't need to work.
00:11Those residents are just so agitated while they are watching the landslide in their homes in Zone 3, Barangay Borabod, Libon, Alvaiv.
00:21Less than 10 houses were damaged.
00:24No one was seriously injured.

00:45Classes are suspended for all classes in the entire Luzon tomorrow.
00:50There will also be no entrance to government offices in the entire Luzon tomorrow because of the heavy rain caused by Hurricane Christine.
00:57It was announced by the Office of the Executive Vice or the Executive Secretary.
01:05Before the landslide happened this evening until tomorrow morning in Isabela,
01:10more than a million individuals were affected by Hurricane Christine in different regions of the country.
01:15Three people were injured.
01:17For now, Aurora experienced a strong wind and rain.
01:21Katrina Zon has a live report.
01:23Katrina?
01:28Atom, at this time, we are experiencing a strong wind and heavy rain.
01:38Northern and Central portions of Aurora are under Signal No. 3 while Signal No. 2 is in the middle.
01:48At the same time of the heavy rain, the water level in the river in Isabela rose rapidly.
01:58I can't take it anymore, ma'am, because the road will sink.
02:03Some residents of Ilagan City brought their pets and belongings to a safer place.
02:09Almost 400 individuals evacuated from different towns in Isabela.
02:15The wind is very strong. I have a baby.
02:17It is expected that this evening, Hurricane Christine will landfall in Isabela.
02:22Residents in the coastal town of Divilacan and Palanan were also evacuated because of the storm surge.
02:29In Dipakulaw, Aurora.
02:31I'm afraid of the wind. I don't want to die.
02:36A strong wind accompanied by heavy rain experienced by the residents of Borlongan in Dipakulaw, Aurora.
02:43From last night until this morning.
02:46That's why the trees here in Papaya were cut and fell.
02:51Since yesterday, PMTV evacuated some barangays in Dinalunga, Kasiguran, Dilasag, and Dipakulaw
03:00as a precaution in case of flood and storm surge.
03:03They are the front line. Based on the track of hope, they are the closest to us.
03:13The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office in Pangasinan is also on alert
03:18in case some river systems flood.
03:20President Marcos ordered the government agencies to focus on the residents who are being rescued
03:26and in places that are hard to reach.
03:29For one, from the AFP, airlift, because there are roads that are hard to cross.
03:33As for the dams.
03:34We will lower it so that the downstream communities are not affected.
03:40So that when the heavy rain comes, we can lower the water.
03:47Earlier this afternoon, the water in San Roque, Magat, Ambuklao, and Binga Dam disappeared.
03:59Atom, 12 barangays here in Kasiguran, Aurora were submerged in a preemptive evacuation.
04:06As of 8 p.m. earlier, Atom, there are 116 families or more than 300 individuals.
04:13As for the outside evacuations or those who will sleep or stay with their friends or relatives,
04:20there are 87 families or 270 individuals. Atom?
04:26Thank you very much, Katrina Son.
04:29The Bicol Region was flooded by Hurricane Christine, where there was record-breaking rainfall.
04:34John Consulta has a live report. John?
04:41Atom, the weather is fine here in Naga City.
04:44But Hurricane Christine left a huge mess.
04:49He backed up to the tree.
04:52That man did it so that the flood would not affect the Navua Cabarita Zoo.
04:58He was rescued immediately.
05:02In the town of Pili, Todokapit, in Salbavida, a resident was rescued so that he would not drown in the flood.
05:07He was quickly rescued by a rescuer.
05:10Attack! Attack!
05:12Residents were also rescued from the roof.
05:17In Naga City, the flood reached the second floor.
05:21Residents were forced to climb the roof to reach the third floor of their neighbor's house.
05:28A child was also rescued who was carried in a boat and several children.
05:33The flood also quickly reached a subdivision.
05:36The next day, dozens of cars were hit by a flash flood.
05:41Others were swept away by the river.
05:43The river swelled and the fence was broken.
05:51Around 30% of the entire territorial jurisdiction of Naga was flooded.
05:59And around 70% of our population was affected or experienced flooding.
06:09First time.
06:10This is unprecedented.
06:12In the town of Bato, the flood reached the coast.
06:16Residents were forced to use a boat because the houses were submerged.
06:20In Libon Albay, the flood also quickly reached a subdivision.
06:24Residents were forced to climb the roof to reach the second floor of their house.
06:30In Biak na Bato Bridge, in the town of Pio Duran, the flood reached a subdivision.

06:46When the flood reached Katerbang Putik, the cars were swept away.
06:53In Pulanggi, the man who was on the roof of the house almost reached the flood.

07:10A man was also swept away by the landslide in Ligao City, Albay.
07:14And four houses were swept away in Jose Pangaliban, Camarines Norte.
07:18Bicol Resort experienced a severe flood.
07:21According to the forecast, 300 to 500 mm of rainfall was expected
07:27from last night until this morning.
07:30The Bicol region is very flooded.
07:34The flood is slow.
07:36Over the past 24 hours, the flow has been slow.
07:39So it means that almost everything was swept away.
07:44Atom was confirmed by Naga City LGU that they received a report
07:48of injuries and casualties in the Christine Flood.
07:52But according to them, they still need validation
07:55and the PNP still needs confirmation regarding this.
07:58Atom, back to you.
08:00Thank you very much, John Consulta.
08:14In case of a flood or calamity,
08:16it is better to make sure that the drinking water is clean
08:19to avoid getting sick.
08:21Boil the water for two minutes,
08:23cover it while cooling it down,
08:25and transfer it to the right container so that it won't be contaminated.
08:29You can also use chlorine tablets that you can get for free
08:32from LGUs and health centers.
08:37During his visit to the Senate hearing,
08:39Pastor Apollo Quibuloy, a former member of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ,
08:43was accused of abusing the President of Quibuloy
08:47in Ian Cruz's report.
08:52After turning off the light,
08:54he embraced me and left me in shock and speechless.
08:57He then said,
08:58this is the fulfillment of God's revelation.
09:01You cannot say, I don't want,
09:03because if you say I don't want,
09:05he said, you will go to hell.
09:07Things like that.
09:09The members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ
09:12were accused of abusing Pastor Apollo Quibuloy,
09:17a Ukrainian named Yulia Voronina,
09:20a former member of the pastoral ministry.
09:23Nobody can deny that there is a pastoral ministry,
09:26even Mr. Quibuloy himself.
09:29And everybody knows that only girls and young and beautiful women
09:35are included there.
09:38He had the key of each room
09:41and just in the middle of the night,
09:43he come to my room and have sex with me.
09:48Their statements are not true.
09:51If they have criminal charges against me,
09:56they are free to file a case and I will face it.
10:01One of the original members of KOJC,
10:04is Teresita Valdehueza,
10:06who not only experienced sexual abuse,
10:09she was also looking for money
10:11to cover the expenses of KOJC
10:14and Quibuloy's luxurious life
10:16and other officials of the group.
10:18KOJC workers have a quota
10:21and sometimes they can earn 10 to 15 million pesos.
10:25We recruited and trafficked our young people
10:28from Mindanao and Visayas
10:29to Carol and the provinces of Luzon
10:31and in the National Capital Region Cities.
10:34There are many students who need to be absent from school in November
10:39and others are not able to go back to school
10:42because the Church prioritized them.
10:44KOJC has no such policy.
10:48No, that is not true.
10:51She was also raped and not fed for a few days
10:54because of the fake accusations.
10:56The PNP is investigating
10:58that 200 women were raped by Quibuloy.
11:02He also has a private army,
11:04known as the Angels of Death.
11:07Apollo Quibuloy handpicked trusted members
11:09with background in military and security training
11:12to compose the Angels of Death.
11:14According to one of his former members,
11:16they kill each other to show their loyalty to Quibuloy.
11:20The Angels of Death is made up of his agents.
11:24They kill their families when they go out,
11:27when they have a lot of information.
11:28Quibuloy denied the allegations.
11:31His former members are free to go against him.
11:34He will also face and answer the accusations in court.
11:38This one is like trial by publicity.
11:41We don't have a resource person.
11:43No one came from us.
11:45Everyone came from the other side.
11:46Aside from the cases in the Philippines,
11:48Quibuloy also faced several cases
11:50related to sex trafficking in America.
