00:24I'm here in this part of the Tirona Highway in Cavite.
00:27This is what you'll go through if you're going to Noveleta and Rosario, Cavite.
00:31We were stopped by rescue teams here
00:33because they said that the water level in Bandan Dulo is still high,
00:36so any type of vehicle cannot pass through here.

00:45He came from Manila and was sent home by Rosario.
00:49Aside from the flood, he also had a problem with his motorcycle, which hit a rock,
00:53so he had to push it to the shore.

01:36because the flood has reached their house.
