00:00Meanwhile, a large piece of land was also left by the Agoncillo people here in Batangas

00:07because of the Christine typhoon.

00:09It caused damage to some residents,

00:13as well as the destruction of roads and houses.

00:17Darlene Tai has the first news.

00:22This is how large the piece of land that was left by the Christine typhoon

00:25in the Agoncillo people in Batangas.

00:27The former land and plants are now full of water and debris.

00:32The landslide was caused by the Christine typhoon that struck on Wednesday.

00:36Also because of the landslide,

00:38the road that led to the town of Agoncillo and Laurel was destroyed.

00:42Residents had to continue to turn around and head to Putik and Tubig

00:46in order to cross to the other side of Agoncillo.

00:49At the end of the destroyed road, we reached Margarito.

00:53He has been looking for his 74-year-old father, Florencio, for four days.

00:59He went to his house,

01:02but there was no flood when he went there.

01:06When he came back, he was already there.

01:08He goes around the town every day just to see his father.

01:12He is now here next to a lake because someone might have drowned.

01:15It's really painful.

01:17I told him that even if he dies, we will put him in a good place.

01:21Until now, five people have been lost in the town of Agoncillo

01:25according to the local government.

01:27He was the one who was hit.

01:28All because of the landslide.

01:31Here in Barangay Subic, Ilaya,

01:33a large piece of land was filled with trees and stones.

01:37All of that was also hit by the landslide.

01:39The two houses here were washed out.

01:41The vehicles were hit by a few meters

01:44and are now stuck in the debris of the land around them.

01:47It's unfortunate that Joel's family was saved.

01:51The wall of their house was broken

01:53and a large piece of land passed through it.

01:56All of their equipment was also damaged.

01:58It's a good thing that they were able to get out of the debris.

02:01I'm also scared.

02:04I can't sleep.

02:06I'm also nervous.

02:09The LGU carried out a pre-emptive evacuation,

02:12but they did not expect the magnitude of the impact of the landslide.

02:16It's really unprecedented.

02:18There is flooding in their area,

02:20but it's limited.

02:22It's only up to Sakong.

02:24But now, it's different.

02:26There is still no supply of electricity and water

02:28in a large part of the town.

02:30Yesterday, residents from Barangay Bilibinwang and Maniaga

02:34continued to be evacuated.

02:36They were isolated because the road was damaged.

02:39They will be added to almost 2,000 evacuees

02:41in eight evacuation centers here in Agoncillo.

02:45This is what happened to Bilibinwang Elementary School.

02:48Almost half of the school was covered in debris

02:51and the chairs and other equipment were also damaged.

02:54The principal, Gina Ponsalan,

02:57called for help in cleaning the school.

03:00What we really need is food, rice, and water.

03:06We still have a lot of barangays where there is no electricity

03:09and there is no water.

03:11We really need water for general use, drinking water,

03:16and food for our fellowmen.

03:20This is the latest news in Agoncillo, Batangas.
