00:00 Despite the warnings of the authorities regarding the use of fireworks,
00:04 there are still more people buying fireworks in the Fireworks Capital of the Philippines.
00:08 From Bukaway, Bulacan, Marisol Abdurrahman is live.
00:13 Marisol?
00:15 You know Vicky, even for some, fireworks and lighting are the complement of the New Year celebrations.
00:24 That's why the authorities are continuously reminding us to be careful with the use of fireworks.
00:29 Or better yet, don't use fireworks to avoid accidents.
00:32 Five days before the celebration in 2024,
00:40 there are more people buying fireworks here in Bukaway.
00:43 We need that.
00:45 We will celebrate on the 31st.
00:47 How was your shopping?
00:49 It was a bit cheap.
00:51 We were given a discount.
00:53 The holiday was postponed so that it can be better for Bulacan.
00:57 We timed it because it's a holiday.
00:59 Tomorrow, we will be going to school.
01:01 We will use fireworks to avoid accidents for the children.
01:05 More people are buying fireworks now compared to last year.
01:07 There are police officers who are watching the area.
01:09 All the firefighters and police officers are coordinating with us to avoid the people who are smoking.
01:15 So those who are vaping and smoking, don't do it.
01:17 Because when you vape, you will be detected.
01:19 There's a sprinkler.
01:21 Yes, there it is.
01:23 We are always careful.
01:27 We look around.
01:29 Aside from fire extinguishers like this,
01:31 there is also a store that sells fire extinguisher balls.
01:35 If you just cook it, it can ignite.
01:39 Some water drums are also on standby.
01:41 But authorities are reminding us to be careful when bringing fireworks.
01:47 Just today, five cases of traumatic amputations were reported by the DOH.
01:53 They were forced to cut their hands or fingers because of the fireworks.
01:57 From 6 in the morning yesterday until 6 in the morning earlier,
02:01 there were 24 firecracker-related incidents.
02:05 That's why the PNP is urging to catch the illegal fireworks.
02:09 Just like the raid in Divisoria yesterday, where a total of 10 illegal fireworks were caught.
02:15 In Davao, the police caught almost 3,000 illegal fireworks.
02:21 As of yesterday, we caught more than 34,000 illegal fireworks.
02:40 Because the stores here are open 24 hours a day,
02:45 the police here in the area will be on duty 24 hours a day.
02:48 Again, their strict reminder to the people who are asking for it is strictly no testing and no smoking.
02:54 Vicky.
02:55 Thank you very much, Marisol Abdurrahman.
