00:00It is also possible that the Marseille storm passed through the areas that were first hit by the Christine and Leon storms.
00:06The two storms that were left behind are remembered for the national day of opening.
00:12Watch Van Myrina.
00:14The thick white that the Christine storm brought to the school in Polanggi, Albay was hard as cement.
00:24It was hard to leave, so face-to-face classes were still suspended.
00:29Almost all of the students' belongings were also destroyed by the storm, according to their principal.
00:33Even their belongings, school supplies, clothes, uniforms, shoes, and so on.
00:40Almost all of them were taken away, some of them went home.
00:45According to the DepEdDecal 816 classroom, the entire province was completely destroyed by the storm.
00:51More than 4,000 were affected by major and minor damage.
00:55Because of the effects of the storms, the prices of vegetables in Baguio City almost tripled.
01:01It is said that it is hard to get supplies from the town of La Trinidad.
01:05Some of the vegetables are cheaper in Manila, especially the broccoli.
01:08The effects of the additional storms are still felt, but in the absence of hope,
01:12be alert to the Marseille storm that is possible to pass through the areas that were first hit by the Christine and Leon storms.
01:18It is possible that it will become a typhoon and reach signal number four.
01:22If it is slow and near, it is also possible to feel the strong winds and strong rains.
01:30So, the areas that were affected by the previous two storms, we need to be prepared.
01:37Today was designated as the National Day of Reconciliation,
01:40because of the left-behind victims of the Christine and Leon storms,
01:42and a lot of victims reached 150.
01:46President Bongbong Marcos pointed to the so-called Ground Zero
01:49of Pananalasan sa Talisay, Batangas, where the candles were lit and the 20 people were massacred.
01:56The President admitted that the government is not doing enough
02:01until there is a life lost because of the calamity.
02:04It's never enough. It's never enough. I wish we could do more.
02:08We're doing everything that we can.
02:10In order to help the government to distribute P10,000 for the beneficiaries,
02:17materials for the construction of damaged houses,
02:20and P10 million for the local government.
02:23The President also joined the inspection of a building next to Laurel.
02:28Here, 11 people were killed and P1 million worth of infrastructure was destroyed by the Christine storm.
02:34In addition to the first trials in the area.
02:37This is a really big thing that happened to our lives.
02:42We were saved from the volcano. This is what happened to us.
02:47The theme of the floods in Wagyo is repeated.
02:51Flooding of rivers, flooding of rivers, and heavy rains.
02:56In the midst of the questions of where the funds for flood control projects will go,
03:00which reached almost P300 billion in 2023,
03:04and worth more than P300 billion in 2024 and 2025,
03:09the Senate will impose the budget of the DPWH.
03:13This is a welcome to the President, but if he doesn't, the climate change will be severe.
03:17That's why it's hard, even for the projects laid out.
03:20Our flood control is really overwhelming.
03:23We have flood control, but we can't.
03:25We really can't because in the entire history of the Philippines,
03:30this has never happened.
03:31This is the first time we're facing this.
03:34Look, not only here, did you see what happened in Spain?
03:38Did you see what happened in different places?
03:40What happened in the States?
03:42It's the same.
03:43It's the same in those places.
03:45It just happened today.
03:46Floods that they have never seen in their lives.
03:50That's what the people of Laurel, Batangas described.
03:53The flood that hit their town in Kasagsagan
03:56by the Christine Flood that hit Bayoyongan Bridge,
03:59here behind me.
04:01That's why the President has a strong support from the government agencies.
04:05The Department of Science and Technology
04:08has approved warning systems and communications to the DILG
04:12to speed up the arrival of flood victims to local governments.
04:16The DPWH and DNR are also reviewing the design of roads and bridges
04:22to be safer in the changing climate.
04:25For GMA Integrated News, Ivan Meirina, your Saksi.
