00:00The year has already passed, but the garbage has not been collected yet, so the garbage in Blumentritt in Manila has already piled up.

00:06Not only the passers-by, but also the businesses around have been affected by the smelly smell.

00:13Marisol Abduraman is on the scene.

00:19The smell of garbage in this part of Blumentritt in Manila is getting worse.

00:23The reason is that the mountain of garbage is being carried for 5 days straight.

00:27That's why even the passers-by, the jeepneys that are stopping in the area, are complaining.

00:32It's a mess.

00:34That's why the other customers don't come here.

00:37It's really like that.

00:39It's full of garbage.

00:41Because of the smell, some businesses in the area are affected,

00:44just like those who sell vegetables.

00:47Of course, it's affected.

00:48Of course, the buyers are affected because of the smell.

00:52It's stinky.

00:53That's why the business is affected.

00:56According to Manila Mayor Hani Lacuna,

00:58the collection of garbage in the city continues,

01:01but their new service provider was not able to collect the garbage immediately.

01:05For a few days, the former service provider,

01:09before the new year arrived, was not able to collect garbage in other places.

01:14That's why the number of garbage collected by the new service provider did not double.

01:21It started on January 1,

01:23but the garbage was collected on December 31.

01:26They were the ones who collected the garbage starting on January 1.

01:30The garbage that was left on December 30 and 31,

01:35they were the ones who collected it.

01:37That's why four times the amount of garbage was collected by them.

01:42In a statement, the Lionel Waste Management Corporation was surprised,

01:46according to Lacuna,

01:47that it left the collection of garbage in Manila

01:51before their contract ends on December 31, 2024.

01:55In fact, when they announced to their employees on December 23

01:59that their contract in the City of Manila would end,

02:02they said that they will finish their service until the end of the year.

02:07Through the company, they continued to serve until the last day,

02:11even during Christmas,

02:13despite the loan of P561.44 million.

02:18The Lionel was also surprised when they told Mayor Honey Lacuna on September 24

02:23that they will not join the bidding for 2025

02:26because the loan has not yet been paid

02:28and to prepare for the proper transfer to the new service provider.
