00:00In spite of the taste of the typhoon Christine in some parts of Region 2,
00:04the people in the region are still waking up from the nightmare left by the typhoon.
00:09Benji Durango has the details.
00:15This is for you.
00:16Yes.
00:16How many more in the bag?
00:17All afternoon, the people in the store are cleaning the used items.
00:21Is this your store?
00:22No, it's a fruit store, sir.
00:24Oh, a fruit store. Where are the fruits?
00:25We brought them home.
00:26Good, you were able to save them.
00:27Yes.
00:28But Ms. Fe, whose stores are flooded with water, can no longer be seen.
00:32It's hard.
00:34It's a burden on the business.
00:36Why?
00:37Of course, a lot of things were damaged. We have to leave them here.
00:41The water level in this barangay is going down in Tuguegarao City.
00:44That's why the residents are now going to Putic.
00:47The trees and plants will be able to see how high the water level is.
00:51This is Barangay Center G's. It's very close to the Pinakanawan River.
00:54The residents told me that they were surprised by the sudden rise in the water level
00:58that came directly from the river.
01:00They were not prepared.
01:02They just followed their belongings, just like that.
01:07But some trees are still not able to cross the Pinakanawan River.
01:11It's still submerged in the water.
01:12How deep is that river?
01:15It's deep, boss, because it's going down.
01:17It's more than three people deep.
01:21It's three people deep?
01:23Jerome stopped working on the construction site because of the flood.
01:26He's now working to have a roof.
01:28This situation is also a bad omen for the tricycle drivers.
01:33The route that was supposed to be just 2 kilometers,
01:35became 20 kilometers because of the flood.
01:37The road was supposed to cross the river and go to the other barangay.
01:40It's a loss.
01:42It's only 1.4 kilometers for one way.
01:45If there's no passenger, it's a loss.
01:48How many passengers do you have?
01:49Double.
01:50You have double the passengers now?
01:51This is the reason why the LGU wants to declare a state of calamity
01:56to help not only the affected, but also all those affected.
02:00We can offer, we will buy either a bono,
02:03either we will pay for the gas,
02:05or we will give financial assistance to tide them over,
02:09or livelihood assistance,
02:11to the sectors that were really affected.
02:13It's in the hands of the council members if this will happen on Monday.
02:17While waiting, they are continuously feeding the evacuees.
02:21Aside from Tuguegarao,
02:22the LGU and DSWD Region 2 are also busy
02:26in providing family food packs to the affected.
02:28According to the DSWD RO2,
02:30less than 4,000 families were affected in the entire Region 2.
02:35Cagayan is leading
02:36among the most affected families,
02:38followed by Isabela, Nueva Vizcaya,
02:41Quirino, and Batanes.
02:42The authorities are still in the response operation.
02:45The LGU is also running out of its own supplies,
02:47but the DSWD will not let this pass.
02:50Yes, because that is our mandate,
02:52the augmentation support for each LGU.
02:55Although, what we are doing now in the department
02:59is that we have preposition goods for all LGUs.
03:03But if we need to add more, we will do it.
03:06They are now solving the problem of starvation.
03:09If they can, they will help them recover.
03:11It's possible that there will be cash for work
03:15for our disaster.
03:18And other interventions,
03:20like if we think that they need
03:2380 individuals in crisis situation
03:25because their plantation was damaged,
03:28and we have 80 individuals in crisis situation,
03:32so we can give them that.
03:35Like what happened in the Typhoon Julian,
03:38Super Typhoon Julian in Batanes,
03:41where that area was really devastated.
03:46So we had an IXPRA program there
03:50so that families can use it.
03:52And then later on,
03:53probably our livelihood activities.
03:56This is the government's way
03:58for places that were hit by the typhoon,
04:00like Tuguegarao,
04:01not only will it not be cheap,
04:03but it will also help them recover
04:04from the tragedy.
04:06Thank you, CDM!
04:08Thank you, BMW!
04:11From here in Cagayan,
04:13Benji Durango,
04:14for Pambalsang TV,
04:15in Bagong, Philippines.
