00:00 It will be difficult to get water because of the drying up of the balloon.

00:04 The calvary of some of our countrymen is because of the flood of El Nino.

00:07 According to NDRMC, there are 8 provinces in the country that are affected by the drying up that could be added.

00:14 The government's response is to invite you to a summit in Pasay City that is being held by Maki Polito.

00:19 Mayor Marlon De La Torre visited Manila to attend the Waste and Water Summit

00:28 and ask for help for their people in Looc Occidental, Mindoro.

00:32 In normal times of heat, water is difficult for them.

00:36 What if they can get water because of El Nino?

00:40 Of course, I am afraid because of the lack of water, my countrymen might get sick.

00:51 Among the people of Looc, 40 million Filipinos do not have formal water or a balloon or a batis.

00:59 Because these places do not have formal water supply,

01:06 we expect that they will be the first to be affected by the drying up, both in terms of quality and quantity.

01:16 Many of the participants we invited are from those regions.

01:22 This forum is exactly a venue for us to tell them what they can do, at the same time, tell us what they need.

01:34 David said that the reason why the most affected LGUs were invited to the summit is to distribute their programs.

01:42 250 billion pesos is needed in the next 5 years to provide access to formal water to 40 million Filipinos.

01:51 The water resources have been mapped nationally.

01:54 There is a database for all of that and it needs to be identified what is the most efficient and the best source of water for them.

02:02 So please come to us.

02:04 According to NDRRMC, 8 provinces are experiencing drying up.

02:09 In April, this will reach 50 provinces or almost the entire Philippines.

02:13 In Sarat, Ilocos Norte, not many farms are left and it is a problem for the animals to be fed because the balloons are drying up in the fields.

02:23 We are collecting the balloons.

02:25 We are collecting the balloons.

02:26 We are collecting the balloons.

02:27 We are collecting the balloons.

02:28 We are collecting the balloons.

02:29 We are collecting the balloons.

02:30 In Vintar, Ilocos Norte, the okra plants are already dried up because there is no water for irrigation.

02:35 In the middle, there are the poor in the water.

02:39 The government agencies are always saying that they are already doing this.

02:43 All of us are hands-on in this.

02:46 For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Polido, for Tuto, 24 Hours.
