NewsTranscript
00:00President Bambang Marcos is focusing on the loss of electricity and water in Catanduanes and the recovery of those who lost their homes.
00:08And in Nueva Ecija, the farmers made a way to irrigate their crops.
00:13Witness, Joseph Moro.
00:19Farming is not a joke.
00:20According to the song, it is even harder if the crops are submerged in the flood.
00:24Like in San Jose City, Nueva Ecija, where the farmers were forced to irrigate their crops, even if the water level is high.
00:33In the town of Aliaga, where more than 100 hectares of land is submerged, and 40 houses, one of which is broken.
00:41The water that was left in the mountains because of the landslides of the Pepito Flood,
00:46the electricity cost was also reduced, so the supply was cut.
00:51The Buen Lag Central School in Calacao, Pangasinan, was flooded for a month since the Christine Flood hit.
00:58It is now flooding the surroundings.
01:00The in-person classes of more than 100 students are affected.
01:04The residents of the 13 other barangays that still have floods are also affected.
01:10Authorities in the province have monitored, especially when the water level reached a critical level,
01:14of the Sinokalan River, which was hit by the Pantal River in Dagupan.
01:18The water in the Cagayan River is already over a critical level,
01:21and it is flooding the surrounding areas, including Tuguegarao City.
01:26Only a few houses in Barangay Centro G are visible.
01:30Almost 1,000 residents are in the evacuation center.
01:33The floods in the province of Ilagan-Isabela also reached a critical level,
01:36so some residents are in the second floor of their houses.
01:40Thousands are still staying in the evacuation centers throughout the province.
01:44They ask for help for their livelihood so that they can recover from the effects of the next floods.
01:54Residents in Catanduane are also worried about the destruction of their houses
01:58due to the Super Typhoon Pepito.
02:01Others were hit by strong winds.
02:04Landslides and landslides were also recorded.
02:07We don't know where we can get a house again.
02:11We are really having a hard time now.
02:13We don't know if we can find a place to live.
02:18I am asking for the help that they will give to our town.
02:24I hope that they can help us so that our town can recover.
02:32The damaged houses and buildings were inspected by President Bongbong Marcos
02:38by the Catanduanes Governor Joseph Cua.
02:43They visited many towns including Panganiban, Karamoran, Bagamanok, Viga, and Imoto.
02:50We have to rebuild, rehabilitate.
02:53In other places, we were able to provide construction materials,
02:58such as iron, for those.
03:02So that we can start again.
03:05Of course, we have assistance for the damaged houses.
03:12At the moment, President Marcos is inspecting the extent of the damages of the Super Typhoon Pepito.
03:20And so far, the President's impression is that the winds were really strong,
03:25especially the Super Typhoon Pepito.
03:27So most of the problems of the residents here in Catanduanes
03:33can start again, especially the construction of their houses.
03:39The infrastructure is not good.
03:42Usually, it's because of landslides, erosion, and heavy rains.
03:48But if we look at the main roads, the main thoroughfares,
03:51there are also damages.
03:54The cemented roads were able to survive.
03:59Despite the impact of the Super Typhoon Pepito,
04:01no one was affected in the province.
04:03According to the President, the pre-emptive evacuation was successful.
04:06It's really a commission.
04:08It's hard to convince people to leave their homes.
04:12But naturally, it's the will.
04:15It's going to be our standard now.
04:17It has been our standard since the very beginning.
04:21I think all local government officials will upload that.
04:27Aside from providing construction materials,
04:29the President is also concerned about the lack of water in the province.
04:33That's why he will send water filtration devices.
04:37Only 13 out of the 315 barangays have electricity.
04:40That's why the government will lend the linemen to the provinces.
04:45He will also send satellite communication equipment to the villages without signal.
