00:00The GMA Integrated News joined the Relief and Rescue Operation in Ilangbayon, Camarines, Sur.
00:06It was a hard work and it took a few hours before the residents were able to stay in their homes because of the heavy rain.
00:15Live from Lagas City, Ian Cruz was there. Ian.
00:23You know, Emil, it's hard for the rescue teams to get inside.
00:26Not only because of the heavy rain, but also because of the number of stranded vehicles on the side of the road in different places here in Camarines, Sur.
00:43We rode the rescue truck of the MMDA Public Safety Division.
00:46We left the northern part of San Fernando and went to the village of Milaor, Camarines, Sur.
00:52We passed many houses and cars that were submerged.
00:56When we arrived at Tulay, above the flowing Bicol River, it was hard for the rescue teams to pass because of the number of stranded vehicles on the side of the road.
01:05When Tulay was flooded, the water level was higher.
01:09Many residents were on the second floor of their houses.
01:12It was hard, even for those who were walking towards the direction of Lagas City.
01:16Others were in the nearby pond so that they wouldn't get wet in August.
01:21Michael Mirasol, who was killed by his mother, grandmother, and younger brother because of the landslide, returned to the village of Albay.
01:27It's just a prayer, sir. That's the only thing that protects me. My mother and my brother.
01:33Rosalie Julianes, who was also on the MMDA rescue vehicle, also walked in the flood from the village of Ragay so that her daughter, Sanaga, could be saved.
01:42That day, she didn't insist. She said she had no food, no water, and she couldn't go down because of the flood.
01:51Stranded vehicles also rode the Red Cross.
01:53The PNP staff, together with the rubber boat, were delivering food to those who were stranded in their homes.
02:00Our trip to Tulay stopped again.
02:04We're near the center of Milaor and we're riding the MMDA rescue boat.
02:08We can see the problem here. There are many stranded vehicles in this area.
02:13That's why the vehicles of the MMDA, other NGOs, and government agencies can't continue.
02:19So this is one of the big problems that is caused by the fast travel to Naga and other parts of Bicol.
02:26From the rescue truck, we moved to the MMDA rubber boat that is being pushed to Naga to help in the rescue efforts.
02:33In the villages of Milaor, the flood was too much.
02:37There are many people on the second floor. How are you there?
02:40It's okay. We just need food and water.
02:43They're asking for food and water.
02:47There are many people on the second floor. They're hoping for help.
02:53There are roads that can't be crossed because of motorized vehicles or vehicles that are submerged in the flood, like the Maharlika Highway.
03:02It's 2 kilometers and it should only take a few minutes to reach Naga.
03:07But it took an hour and a half for us to reach the boundary.
03:13It's hard for our vehicles to get here. Even relief goods can't get here.
03:20Like other towns, many people are walking in the flood in Naga.
03:23The boat that is used in the Fluvial Parade every Festival of Feña Pransya is now used for transportation.
03:30According to Naga CDRRMO, there are 7 more villages that are submerged in the flood.
03:34And many people are being rescued in the villages of Abelia, Igualdad, and Sabang.
03:40More than 4,000 people are in the evacuation centers in the villages.
03:48Emil, the clearing operation was started by the Philippine Red Cross earlier in the area of the town of Milaor.
03:55According to Naga CDRRMO, the Philippine Army and the DPWH will work together
04:05in the clearing operation for the stranded and submerged vehicles
04:10so that they can be adjusted, pulled, so that relief goods and rescue teams can continue in Naga and other parts of Bicol.
04:20Ian, what you mentioned in your report and what we saw in your video,
04:24many residents were rescued in the flood.
04:28Were they rescued or were they still in their positions until this time?
04:35Well, Emil, some of the residents, like the pregnant women, the pregnant women,
04:44and those who are very old, they were rescued by the Red Cross, the Coast Guard, the Philippine Navy,
04:54the LGUs, and the police.
04:56But, Emil, we saw that most of the residents, including the pregnant women,
05:02are just staying in their shelters, in their rooftops,
05:06and they are just hoping, Emil, that relief goods will be added
05:10so that they can sustain their stay in their shelters, Emil.
05:17And, Ian, according to the information you have,
05:21what other places in the province of Camarinasur
05:24have not been reached until this time by the government?
05:27How are they? It's already dark.
05:33Well, Emil, in fairness to the DSWD earlier in Milaura,
05:37the flood was very high.
05:38We saw that there were DSWD goods on the boats.
05:42And we also heard earlier that Secretary Rex Gatchalian of the DSWD was here in Naga.
05:50So, Emil, the question now is, are their supplies enough?
05:54Because, Emil, earlier, when we saw the residents riding the boats,
05:58they were walking for several hours.
06:00What they are really buying is water and food for their hungry families.
06:05So, your question is, how are they?
06:07It's already night.
06:08Well, Emil, there is still no electricity in many towns that are flooded.
06:13So, Emil, their situation is really difficult.
06:17But they are praying that the weather in Camarinasur will continue to improve
06:24so that the floods will gradually subside, Emil.
06:28And, in any case, all the help and rescue will arrive, Emil.
06:32Thank you very much and take care.
