00:00After the feast of Jesus Nazareno,
00:03a lot of trash was found in some parts of Manila.
00:08And we have on the spot, Jonathan Andar.
00:11Jonathan!
00:14Connie, the trash that was left in the translation here in the Canton of Globo de Oro and in Quezon Boulevard has been found.
00:23But earlier, a lot of trash was found here that even residents are complaining about.
00:31This is why there was a commotion this morning because of the trash that was left in the procession.
00:37Most of the trash was food.
00:39Styrofoam, plastic bottles, plastic spoon and fork,
00:43and silver plastic bottles.
00:45On the side, there are also plastic bottles with teeth.
00:49The trash trucks of City Hall, MMDA, and Garbage Collection Company, contracted by Lungson, are coming back here.
00:56Until this morning, 42 trucks of trash were found in the route of the translation from Carina Grandstand to Quiapo.
01:03That's equivalent to 70 tons or 70,000 kilos of trash.
01:08But it is expected that 15 more trucks will be added to the amount of trash that is not found here in the area of Quiapo,
01:14according to the DPS or Department of Public Services of Manila.
01:18Compared to last year, they expect to collect more trash now because more people also came to the translation.
01:24Some of the people of Quiapo are complaining because they are now cleaning up the trash that was left by the devotees.
01:30Yesterday, on Taft Avenue, our team was able to collect some trash that was left by the LRT.
01:36According to the DPS, Mayor Honey Lacuna was able to collect some parts of Manila.
01:41Following the procession, they ordered flushing or pumping of water to the roads and posts.
01:47The spider lilies were destroyed in the center island of Quiapo because the devotees were trampling on them.
01:54City Hall workers cut them down to grow them again.
01:57The trash of the translation is increasing because of the problem now in the collection of trash in Manila.
02:03But the trucks that were deployed here in Quiapo will not be affected by the regular collection of trucks that were dumped in other parts of Manila.
02:12This is the statement of the OIC of the Manila Department of Public Services.
02:18We have a saying, cleanliness is next to godliness.
02:22If we are devotees, we should have discipline.
02:32Connie, the trash that was dumped here in Quiapo, you will bring it to VITAS in Tondo,
02:37then you will drive a barge to dump it in Navotas Landfill.
02:41The latest from Quiapo, Manila, back to you, Connie.
02:44Thank you very much, Jonathan Andal.
