00:00PTV has now entered the ground zero of Bagyong Pepito in the province of Aurora.
00:06Let's find out the situation there from Benji Durango live. Benji?
00:14Audrey, Bagyong Pepito destroyed all the houses here in the barangay of Dinadjawan in the town of Dipakulao, Aurora.
00:23This barangay is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean in front of it and in the mountains behind it.
00:30This is where the most severe storm of Bagyong Pepito was experienced last week.
00:37The trip of the news team to enter the barangay of Dinadjawan in the coastal area of Aurora is dangerous.
00:4221 landslides were hit by the team.
00:45The road is full of debris.
00:47The barangay was isolated for two and a half days because of the left and right flooding.
00:51When the barangay of Dinadjawan arrived, their condition became worse.
00:55The entire coastal barangay was affected by the storm.
00:58One hundred percent of the houses here were damaged.
01:01I fainted because I saw them on Friday when I left them.
01:06I said, it's still good.
01:08After the storm, this is what happened. It was destroyed.
01:13The DSWD's Family Food Packs have already entered the destroyed covered court of Dinadjawan in Pinamigay.
01:18The chopper of the Coast Guard will fly soon to assess the damage in the area.
01:22Angeline is with them.
01:24Even if the house was destroyed, her husband and son are safe.
01:28Who are with you in the house?
01:29My parents and my husband.
01:32Are you okay?
01:33Yes, we are safe.
01:34This is enough to have food and drink for three days.
01:38Yes, I can really help.
01:40Because many of our relatives were destroyed.
01:43They were forced to enter the 1,400 Family Food Packs
01:47to feed the residents who were starving for several days.
01:50There is still no electricity in the area.
01:52The supply of water is also affected.
01:54The remote barangay is also isolated from communication.
01:57To avoid the concern of the residents,
01:59we distributed the PTV satellite internet.
02:02The free Wi-Fi for the town was opened to the public.
02:05We are okay, son.
02:06This is Mang Marvel.
02:07On Saturday, he was the last one to talk to his son in Nueva Ecija.
02:10He was one of the first to connect to the internet
02:12to inform the concerned family.
02:14We had a connection. You saw that I'm okay.
02:17I'm okay.
02:19Many of his fellow barangay members
02:21were able to talk to their loved ones
02:23because of the free Wi-Fi.
02:24Another isolated barangay,
02:26Barangay Caloocan,
02:28is also being opened to help the government.
02:31In the initial construction of DPWH Region 3,
02:34more than P320 million pesos
02:37was spent on the infrastructure.
02:39More than P34 million pesos
02:42was spent on the area of the province.
02:44This is still under construction
02:45while other LGUs are reporting.
02:47We have hope for the rest of our lives.
02:49Okay?
02:50Even if we don't want it,
02:53it happens.
02:58Let's pray and hope
03:01that the aurora will rise again.
03:06Audrey, what you see behind me
03:09is the free Wi-Fi for the town
03:11provided by PTV in their area.
03:13They are happy and some are even crying
03:16because they were able to talk to their loved ones
03:19after three days of being isolated
03:22in their barangay.
03:24The entire province of Aurora
03:26is under state of calamity.
03:28The PDRRMO is also reporting
03:30the three reported casualties in this barangay.
03:33Including the one who was hit by an arrow
03:36and whose house was hit by the storm.
03:39Audrey.
03:41Thank you very much, Benji Durango.
