00:00Let's go back to the heart of Mandaue City.
00:09My all up on the spot, Nico Sereno of GNA Beach, how do you feel, Nico?
00:17Yes, Cecil, there are more people in the cemeteries here in Cebu, just like here in Barangay Guizo
00:24in Mandaue City, where there are four cemeteries next to each other.
00:29Just this morning, in Barangay Guizo, a part of the road was closed to the four large cemeteries.
00:35That's why people have to walk to the cemeteries and to the very gates of their loved ones.
00:41Here in St. Joseph Roman Catholic Cemetery, security is tight on the entrances
00:47and their belongings are inspected.
00:50Just this morning, some people were confiscated cleaning supplies of the gates
00:54and things like scissors, shovels, and tools.
00:59Even though it's closed, it's also being banned today and tomorrow due to the large number of people.
01:05Inside the cemeteries, we were able to inspect the Macawaninang Bureau of Fire.
01:10Aside from the exit areas, they are inspecting the line of lights in the cemeteries.
01:16Cebuans have already put candles at the end of their loved ones' lives
01:22in the last two days.
01:25Those accommodating for mass intentions for the dead are also busy.
01:30The worshippers of prayer, rosary, and prayer for the dead are also busy
01:36and some of them are still alive during this time of mourning.
01:42Cecil, the cemeteries here in Mandaue City are open 24 hours a day
01:45but people are not allowed to stay overnight.
01:48They are only allowed to stay here in the cemeteries.
01:51They can stay here for a long time, but it's not allowed to set up a tent
01:54for them to stay overnight here inside the cemeteries.
01:58Cecil?
02:02Thank you very much.
02:03Nico Sereno of GMA Regional TV.
