00:00 Some residents of San Andres Bukid in Manila are not in favor of a relocation to their area for the construction of the North-South Commuter Railway Project.
00:09 First news, John Merampresto.
00:11 These houses in Barangay 800 in San Andres Bukid in Manila are already high and are made of stone.
00:23 The government's North-South Commuter Railway Project is already underway.
00:28 The problem of some residents is that the relocation will be small and not enough for them in Naic Cavite.
00:35 It's like a condo type, three story.
00:38 So it's 27 square meters, two bedrooms.
00:43 But it doesn't have its own land.
00:45 So how can you say that it's ours? This is ours.
00:48 This is our grandfather's land. We don't pay anything monthly.
00:53 Gloria is also thinking of how to get a good future for her five children who are still studying.
01:01 All possible ways to get our children are here in Manila.
01:06 Why would we move to another province?
01:09 If we are going to be removed or if ever there is a relocation, it should be in Manila.
01:13 In 2004, the first one to be moved was their house, but they did not receive anything.
01:20 75-year-old father Betlehem has a problem with his hospitalization when they were moved to another province.
01:28 I just came from the Manila Hospital. I was going back and forth to get a check-up.
01:33 If we are going to be moved to a faraway place, what's the guarantee that we will get a free hospital there?
01:40 He needs to undergo an operation for his lus-lus, so he's thinking of a relocation.
01:46 He's also thinking of his job as a housekeeper and the monthly payment for the government's house.
01:53 At my age, the question is can I still pay for a few years?
01:57 It's better not to happen. I'm not going to leave a problem for my children.
02:04 The barangay said that more than 100 families are affected by the DOTR project.
02:10 There is no schedule for the relocation of the houses, but it's possible that the houses will be relocated before the second quarter of 2024 ends.
02:19 For now, DOTR has placed markings for the affected houses.
02:24 Here is the first news. Jomer Apresto for GMA Integrated News.
