00:00President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ordered a review of the flood control master plan.

00:06This is so that the severe effects of the recent floods will not happen again.

00:10According to the President, it should also be accompanied in the coming times

00:14to stop the effects of calamities.

00:17This is Clayzer Pardilla of PTV in Balitang Pambansa.

00:21The landslide that was left by Hurricane Christine in the town of Laurel, Batangas is still intact.

00:28Their homes are still flooded and their livelihoods are affected.

00:33This is the first time that a landslide like this has occurred in Laurel because of the flood.

00:38This was personally witnessed by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

00:44along with the leaders of various government agencies.

00:48Almost half of the cabinet is here to see what needs to be done.

00:57We have seen the problems brought by Hurricane Christine to you.

01:06In 21 barangays in Laurel, the severe effects of Hurricane Christine

01:12In order to quickly recover from the severe floods,

01:15President R. Marcos provided Php 10 million in financial assistance to Laurel LGU.

01:21This is part of Php 60 million in financial aid for 6 barangays in Batangas.

01:27Fishermen were also given Php 60,000 in financial assistance.

01:33The President also contributed free construction materials

01:37for the reconstruction of their damaged homes.

01:40Orlando was one of the beneficiaries who lost his house.

01:45He was also flooded by the flood.

01:47I am thankful to the President because he gave me financial assistance.

01:50It is a big thing for us to start a new life.

01:55You can count on the government to help you recover from this disaster.

02:02President R. Marcos promised to complete the construction of the Taal Lake Circumferential Road

02:08and to repair this road.

02:11Because of the heavy rains caused by Hurricane Christine,

02:15the Bayuyungan River in Laurel, Batangas,

02:19broke and fell into the Bayuyungan Bridge.

02:23Now, there is no road that connects to the barangays of Poblacion 3

02:29and Mugaan East and West.

02:31This road is important because it connects to the towns of Laurel, Agoncillo, and Lemery, Batangas.

02:41The DPWH is already looking into this matter.

02:45I urge them to prioritize the construction of this infrastructure

02:51so that it can be done as soon as possible.

02:5461 people were killed in Batangas.

02:58In order to avoid this tragedy, the government is working hard

03:04and the Flood Control Master Plan is being reviewed.

03:07Although the government's flood control projects are in place,

03:11the water level of Hurricane Christine was twice as high as that of Hurricane Ondoy

03:15due to the effects of climate change.

03:17It used to flood, but not this much.

03:21The weather has changed.

03:23So, we will change the designs.

03:27We will strengthen the infrastructure, flood control, slope protection, and bridges.

03:33We need to look for better designs.

03:37The government is preparing to investigate the funds for the flood control projects

03:42and to look into the science behind these projects.

03:46Technologies were used to prevent the effects of calamities.

03:51For example, the early warning system of the DOST

03:54to alert those in hazard-prone areas.

03:58And the slow reduction of water in dams as a standard procedure

04:03to avoid heavy flooding.

04:05The NDRRMC funds are also being used

04:10to quickly and efficiently use the facilities that were damaged by the flood.

04:17From PTV Manila, Kalay Zalpar Villa, for Balitang Pambansa.
