00:00Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:05The trees have opened and fell.
00:08Some of the houses were left by Hurricane Nika in Dilasag, Aurora, where it landfalled.
00:14That's why the residents are calling for help.
00:17Some of them have no food and their neighbors have been hit by the storm.
00:22The river overflowed in some places, so relief goods couldn't be found.
00:28And live from Dilasag, Aurora, Darlene Khan is reporting.
00:33Darlene.
00:37Mel, Emil, Vicky, this is Dilasag, Aurora, the most affected by Hurricane Nika in the province.
00:44One hundred percent of the town is affected, that's why the residents are calling for help.
00:53Hurricane Nika hit the town of Dilasag for a few hours.
00:58But it was a long-term trauma for Nanay Leonita.
01:02I was just like that because it was so strong.
01:07And my neighbor was moving up and up, so I was really scared.
01:15Hurricane Nika landfalled in Dilasag yesterday morning.
01:19Nanay Leonita's roof was broken.
01:22A part of her house was also destroyed.
01:25I was scared because of the strong wind.
01:28I just experienced it now.
01:30I was able to endure it in the past.
01:32But now, it's terrible.
01:34Around the town, there were also signs of the storm.
01:38Many trees fell.
01:40Some houses and structures were also destroyed.
01:43Like the house of Nanay Milagros and Tatay Felicisimo.
01:46I remember what happened yesterday.
01:48I was crying yesterday.
01:51Why?
01:52I thought that our house was also destroyed by the strong wind.
02:01I was praying.
02:02I said, that's enough.
02:04That's enough, I said.
02:06Stop it.
02:07That's what I said.
02:10I was scared.
02:12Three barangays were isolated.
02:15The water level is still high.
02:16The storm is strong here.
02:18That's why barangay Diagyan cannot go to the municipality of Dilasag in Aurora.
02:25Even the motorists going to Dinapigue, Isabela, cannot go there.
02:30Barangay Lawang and Ura were also isolated because of another flood in another part of the town.
02:36But some were able to cross.
02:38Like this man who has a bicycle.
02:41JP also did not neglect the strength of the storm.
02:44I'm not afraid anymore because I can go to my loved ones in Dilasag so that I can greet them.
02:53There's no communication, ma'am.
02:55But there are people like Nixon who retreated.
02:59The storm is too strong.
03:01We cannot cross.
03:02It's hard for us to go to the other side.
03:06We are trying to contact them now.
03:09But as I said, they are still isolated.
03:15Even though it's sunny, we still cannot cross.
03:23Sir, what will happen is, will they receive relief and help if the water level goes down?
03:28Yes, that's what will happen.
03:30In the neighboring town of Kasiguran, there is no more flood, but the pinch left by the storm is still strong.
03:36All of the 100 banana trees were hit by strong winds in this farm where Tate Rinaldo works.
03:43Even if we cry, we cannot do anything.
03:45It's really a storm.
03:46It will take another 4 years for the new banana trees to grow and bear fruit.
03:52Larry's call for help that we managed to clean the plants destroyed by the storm also helped.
03:58I hope someone will help us.
04:00We lost our food.
04:02That's our problem now.
04:05Family food packs were given to the affected residents.
04:08Clearing operations are underway for the LGUs to remove the fallen trees and debris from the road.
04:15However, there is still no power in Kasiguran and Dilasag.
04:19The communication line is still difficult.
04:22For now, the province of Aurora remains alert for the upcoming storms.
04:28We need to be prepared to avoid a disaster.
04:35We need to take care of our families.
04:41We should not leave our homes unattended.
04:49It should be strong.
04:51If we need to evacuate, we do.
04:56It's too early for us.
05:04Vicky, the heavy rain has started again.
05:08Meanwhile, the LGU said that it will take another month for the electricity supply to return to the town.
05:16There are a lot of power outages and it will not be fixed immediately.
05:20That's the latest from Dilasag, Aurora.
05:23Back to you, Vicky.
05:24Thank you very much, Darlene Cai.
