Transcript

00:00Welcome back to Marikina, it's raining again at this time of the day and it's only been a few days since the heavy rain.

00:24The rain has stopped and the puddles on the sides of the river are now clear.

00:28The heavy rain will continue to remove the thick puddles.

00:32Breaking news, there is a high thunderstorm advisory for these sandals here in Metro Manila and the Ilangkarating Province.

00:39According to the forecast, Nueva Ecija, Bulacan, Rizal, Laguna, Cavite, Batangas, Quezon, and in some parts of Zambales, Bataan, Pampanga, and Tarlac are also affected.

00:51Residents are being alerted from the river or landslide.

00:56The thunderstorm advisory will last until 11.15 this morning.

01:10More than Php 17 million worth of sandals were damaged by heavy rain, storm Butsoy, and storm Karina.

01:18According to NDRRMC, almost 300,000 families were affected by the bad weather.

01:24Some places in Metro Manila and other provinces are still flooded.

01:28More than 200,000 people are still in evacuation centers.

01:33Some have already gone home, but where is the trash?

01:37Thick puddles or damaged items were dumped on them.

01:41According to NDRRMC, 14 people were reported dead, two were injured, and two were missing since July 11.

01:50According to PNP, 21 people were reported dead, 15 were injured, and 5 were missing.

01:57In addition to the list of places that are in a state of calamity, the provinces of Bataan and Bulacan are also affected.

02:02Metro Manila, Cavite, Batangas, and Quinta Rizal were the first to be flooded in a state of calamity.

02:09Other places are still in a state of calamity because of the previous storm Butsoy,

02:15including Pinamalayan, Oriental Mindoro, Cabacan and Piquit towns in Cotabato,

02:20and their barangay in Jose Abad Santos, Davao Occidental.

02:24The price freeze for the main products in the aforementioned places is now in effect.

02:31Two boats were found in a flooded barangay in Quezon City.

02:36This is James Agustin.

02:39In the aftermath of the flood, a woman's boat sank in the river bank of Ingin Bukid, Barangay Apolonyo, Quezon City.

02:47The next day, a man's boat was found.

02:52I saw the woman when the water was flowing. I went there. I saw her lying down and I almost stepped on her.

03:01About the man who was found earlier, I saw him praying and he also reported to me.

03:10According to the barangay members, the victims are not residents.

03:14I think he also had scratches because he was swimming in the river.

03:18He was just swimming there with us.

03:20The Laloma Police Station identified the two.

03:25The Laloma Police Station identified the two.

03:28The flood-stricken building of a barangay subdivision is also open.

03:33Wherever you look, there are garbage cans.

03:36Some cars are also watching the flooding.

03:39Like this AUV that is parked in the back of the car.

03:43A closed van is also nearby.

03:45Until last night, the residents were busy cleaning.

03:49Eze's story reached the second floor of their house where the water level is high.

03:53It's the last time they experienced such a heavy flood in 2009.

03:57It's not that fast. It's slow.

04:00But when the heavy rain falls, the water level will rise again.

04:06Their items and clothes are wet and full of mud.

04:09Others can't be helped.

04:11There's a lot of garbage cans.

04:13It's all garbage.

04:15When the appliances are damaged, there's nothing left.

04:20Richard, his neighbor, threw away the damaged appliances that were submerged in the flood,

04:26including a rice cooker, two electric fans and a washing machine.

04:30It will take a long time before we can buy them again.

04:33They were all damaged.

04:36More than 2,000 families were affected by the flood in the barangay.

04:42James Agustin reports for JMA Integrated News.

04:47After the heavy flood in Marikina,

04:49the problem now is that a lot of residents left this thick puddle.

04:54EJ Gomez reports.

04:59The I Love Marikina signage was almost not visible

05:02when the strong winds of the recent typhoon hit.

05:08The typhoon is gone and the residents are now overwhelmed by the heavy rain.

05:12But they say that the problem now is the thick puddle.

05:17But it's risky and dangerous for the residents.

05:20But they say that they have to endure it so that they can travel and reach their destination.

05:24Like Salvador, who is cycling to work.

05:28It's really hard, ma'am.

05:30I thought it would be easy.

05:32I was going down the road.

05:35I didn't expect it to be this deep.

05:38I was surprised that the road is this deep.

05:41There's no one blocking the road.

05:43How is that?

05:44Your bike is broken.

05:45I just have to endure it.

05:47Charles, who rides a motorcycle, also experienced this.

05:50We came from Ampid, San Mateo.

05:53We went to Marikina to buy food.

05:57We were almost there.

05:58It's just simple.

05:59We didn't know that the puddle is this deep.

06:01So we just cleaned it.

06:03Some were forced to walk in the thick puddle.

06:07Thousands of residents are still staying in the evacuation centers in Marikina.

06:12In H. Bautista Elementary School, more than 3,000 individuals or more than 600 families

06:18are staying in classrooms and capsule tents.

06:21Our house is just one floor.

06:24We were forced to go in the water.

06:26It's deep.

06:27There are puddles.

06:28We were not able to save our belongings.

06:31Everything was submerged.

06:33Even our clothes, ma'am.

06:36We haven't cleaned yet.

06:38We haven't gone home yet.

06:40There's no electricity.

06:41We can't clean the house.

06:43It's past four o'clock in the early morning here in Patola Street, Barangay Tumana,

06:48where it's still dark and there's no electricity.

06:50According to the authorities, this is the only barangay that is trying to get electricity back

06:55after the flood in Karina.

06:58They are in a hurry to fix the electricity poles that were affected by the flood.

07:04EJ Gomez reports for GMA Integrated News.

07:09A flood passed through a house in a coastal area in Palawan.

07:16Wow, we're in the mountains.

07:20According to Super Radio Palawan,

07:22four houses in Barangay Panakan in the town of Nara were flooded by a flood.

07:27Many were damaged, including three houses that were removed from their roofs.

07:3217 families were affected.

07:34There was also no electricity in the area after several trees and branches fell.

07:40The water in Wawa Dam in Rodriguez, Rizal was flooded due to the heavy rain last Wednesday.

07:46Video uploader Allan Sison said that the water was flooded from the newly built Upper Wawa Dam.

07:53May Ronnie Evangelista spread on social media that the Upper Wawa Dam was drained.

08:00He said that the water was far from the dam.

08:04After the Philippine Area of Responsibility issued a flood warning,

08:07a new low-pressure area was built.

08:10It is expected to reach 980 kilometers east of Mindanao.

08:14For now, the chance of a flood is low.

08:17However, weather updates are still in effect

08:19because it is still possible for the dams to be changed.

08:22According to the Philippine Area of Responsibility,

08:24the dams in Mindanao are expected to be replaced by a new low-pressure area.

08:30Weather updates are still in effect because it is still possible for the data on the LPA to be changed

08:34while it is far away and in the ocean.

08:38The LPA is still in effect in our time.

08:41Heavy rain and local thunderstorms are expected to hit the country today.

08:46In the next few hours,

08:48there is a high chance of rain in some parts of Northern and Central Luzon,

08:51Calabarzon, Mimaropa Region, Visayas and Mindanao

08:55based on the rainfall forecast of Metro Weather.

08:58It is expected to rain all over the country this weekend,

09:01especially in the afternoon and evening.

09:03Heavy to intense rains that can cause floods or landslides are possible.

09:08The chance of rain here in Metro Manila this weekend is also high,

09:12especially in the afternoon and evening.

09:16The change of climate and the wrong disposal of garbage

09:19are the main reasons of President Bongbong Marcos

09:22why some places in Metro Manila were affected by the strong winds.

09:30We have more flood control now than before.

09:33This is what the effects of climate change are.

09:38The only problem is,

09:39I hope people will learn not to throw garbage.

09:43Because the garbage is what polluted our banks.

09:47That is why it is not effective anymore.

09:51That is what the President said about his visit to the affected areas in Metro Manila,

09:55including the Camanaba area.

09:57In Valenzuela, residents were affected by PBBM

10:01because they were forced to walk in the flood.

10:04Some businesses were also closed because of the flood.

10:07When it came to the evacuation center in Barangay Malanday,

10:10the President did not go down because the water level is still high.

10:14The President also visited Navotas.

10:16He ordered the MMDA and DPWH to look for a temporary solution

10:22so that the damaged floodgate will not be completely destroyed.

10:32The missing crew of the sinking motor tanker in Manila Bay

10:36has already been found.

10:38The authorities are now moving to stop the spread of this heavy rain.

10:42Here is my report.

10:47In the middle of the night in Tangkita,

10:49the sinking of the motor tanker Terra Nova in Lamampoy, Limay, Bataan,

10:53led to the Iloilo, the sinking tanker

10:55that carried 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel oil.

10:5916 of the crew members were immediately rescued.

11:02Four of them needed medical treatment.

11:05The missing crew member was found by the authorities,

11:08but he is no longer alive.

11:10According to the owner of MT Terra Nova, Portavaga Ship Management,

11:14the Coast Guard stopped their scheduled release from Limay, Bataan on July 22,

11:19but they were also allowed the next day.

11:22But when it came to the affected area,

11:24they were hit by a big wave and heavy rain.

11:28The ship tried to turn around before returning to Limay.

11:31As they were returning, it was slowly sinking.

11:35They asked for help from the PCG.

11:37The Coast Guard did not allow it.

11:40The PCG conducted an aerial survey

11:43of their oil spill response operations.

11:45The PCG is also helping the oil spill response organizations

11:49to stop the spread of oil.

11:51According to Bataan PCG,

11:53no oil has been found that escaped from the ship's cargo.

11:56The oil slick was found to be possible fuel from the deck and the ship's tube.

12:02The PCG said that the tanker's oil tanker could sink in seven days.

12:07The depth of our Manila Bay is about 30 meters.

12:11So it is not impossible to find a way

12:15to safely and securely remove the tanker's oil content

12:22so that it will not affect our environment.

12:26The Department of Environment and Natural Resources

12:28will place a monitoring instrument

12:30at the time when they determine the location of the ship.

12:32We need to know where it is now

12:35and what is the state of the ship's structure.

12:41We are still here.

12:43President Bongbong Marcos was instructed by various agencies

12:46to study the effects of oil spills on the environment.

12:49Basically, what we need to assess is where is the capsized vessel,

12:55the fuel that is being released,

12:58what are the tides, what are the winds,

13:01where is it headed, so that we can get ahead.

13:04DOSC maybe can also make some determinations on that.

13:34There is also a decrease of 80 to 90 cents per liter of kerosene.

13:39This affects the expected oil price adjustment,

13:42high supply and low oil demand.

13:45In places that are in a state of calamity,

13:48the price of kerosene and LPG will be 15 days off.

13:56A fire broke out in a residential area in Marulas, Valenzuela.

14:00This is Beya Pinla.

14:04It was early in the morning when a fire broke out in a residential area in Marulas, Valenzuela.

14:10The fire quickly spread and reached the second alarm.

14:14Firefighters were not able to get to the eight trucks that needed to be responded to.

14:18CCTV footage shows the sudden increase of fire in one unit

14:23in the vicinity of vacant apartments.

14:25It also spread to nearby houses.

14:28Mr. Charlie was just shocked when he watched his house being burned.

14:33What we did, we took out all our belongings.

14:36So far, God has mercy, there is nothing.

14:46No one was injured or dead.

14:50Unfortunately, we lost our belongings.

14:54They were only able to save clothes and important documents.

14:59The fire lasted for almost an hour before the firefighters were able to extinguish it.

15:04A fire extinguisher and fire extinguisher are still being investigated.

15:09Beya Pinla reporting for GMA Integrated News.

15:14Let's update on the low-pressure area in Mindanao.

15:18Let's talk to the weather specialist, Ana Cloren Lahorda.

15:21Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.

15:24Good morning, Sir Rafi, and to our viewers.

15:28What is the chance of a typhoon in this low-pressure area in Mindanao?

15:32Yes, the LPA that we monitor in the coast of Mindanao

15:37has a low chance of a typhoon.

15:41At the moment, there is no direct effect in any part of our country.

15:46But we continue to monitor it even if it is only in the ocean.

15:50Is there a possibility of a typhoon in the ocean?

15:56At the moment, within 24 to 48 hours, the chance of a typhoon is low.

16:00But it depends on the ocean.

16:04The ocean is the source of energy for a low-pressure area or a circulation

16:09to form a typhoon.

16:12It depends on the environmental conditions

16:15and the track of the next few days

16:18if the chance of a typhoon is high.

16:21But at the moment, within 24 to 48 hours,

16:24the development of the typhoon is low or less likely into a tropical cyclone.

16:29Is the wind still strong?

16:31What can we expect this weekend?

16:35Yes, compared to the past few days,

16:37the wind has become weaker

16:41because of the typhoon Carina

16:44or the typhoon Carina that hit the ocean.

16:47Today, we still expect that a large part of Luzon

16:51along with Metro Manila,

16:52our skies will still be cloudy

16:54and there will be heavy rains.

16:56But we still expect heavy rains

16:59especially in the Ilocos region

17:01and in some parts of Benguet or Cordillera administrative region

17:06as well as Zambales and Bataan.

17:08Occasional rains are still possible today.

17:11Towards the weekend,

17:13we expect that the effects of typhoon Habagat will gradually decrease.

17:17But tomorrow, in the western section of Luzon,

17:19Central and Northern Luzon,

17:21there will still be heavy rains due to typhoon Habagat.

17:23But here in Metro Manila,

17:25we expect improving weather conditions until the weekend.

17:28Although it is improving,

17:29there is a thunderstorm advisory in these moments in Metro Manila

17:32and a large part of Central Luzon and Southern Tagalog.

17:35How much rain do we expect here?

17:39Yes, Sir Raffy.

17:40We still have thunderstorm advisory even on the weekend.

17:43Especially by Sunday,

17:44the chance of thunderstorm activity is high.

17:48And today, any time of the day,

17:50due to Habagat,

17:53our time here in Metro Manila is still mostly cloudy.

17:57There are also thunderstorms.

17:59Light to moderate,

18:01with at times heavy rains are possible.

18:03But if we compare this to the rains that we have experienced in the past,

18:07our rains in Metro Manila are less or more.

18:12Or the number of rains in Metro Manila.

18:14So the chances of floods are still high.

18:16What about those in evacuation centers?

18:18What is the best advice for them?

18:21To stay safe in the area?

18:24Yes, you are right, Sir Raffy.

18:26Because our lands are saturated

18:28and other areas are not yet flooded.

18:32Especially if we are in low-lying areas,

18:35it is still dangerous.

18:37The rains that we are expecting are still possible.

18:40Floods and landslides are still possible.

18:43So for those in evacuation areas,

18:46we can stay there.

18:48Overall, over the weekend,

18:50our rains will be less.

18:53So let's stay there

18:56where we can be safe

18:58and meet our needs.

19:01Again, to emphasize,

19:03what are the areas where we should avoid

19:05the possible rains,

19:07especially in Central Luzon?

19:09Yes, Sir Raffy,

19:11we are still expecting heavy to intense rains,

19:15especially here in Ilocos Region,

19:17Batanes, and Babuyan Islands.

19:19We are also expecting occasional heavy to intense rains

19:23in Mezambales, Bataan,

19:25and also in Benguet.

19:28In Pampanga, we are still expecting heavy rains.

19:32This will still reach the intense rains,

19:35so be careful to our countrymen

19:37in the event of heavy rains.

19:39But here in Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon,

19:42our rains will be less.

19:45Though we still have thunderstorm occurrences,

19:48this will not continue to happen.

19:51So we are expecting heavy rains here in Metro Manila.

19:55Thank you very much.

19:56Ana Cloren Horda of Pag-asa.

20:25The man who stole the stolen wallet

20:27was caught red-handed.

20:30The two men also committed robbery

20:32in a stall in Barangay Malua, Dagupan City.

20:35They even locked the gate before they could enter.

20:38They stole the money,

20:40and the money contained 2,000 pesos worth of cigarettes and alcohol.

20:44The suspects are now being searched.

20:47The 43-year-old man from Tiaong, Quezon,

20:51was killed after he fell from a mango tree.

20:54According to the victim's brother,

20:55it was possible that his brother stepped on a weak branch of a tree

20:59that was out of balance until he fell down

21:01from the 20-story building.

21:04Based on the police report,

21:06the man's head was hit by a bagok.

21:10The investigation continues,

21:11and Jamie Regional TV is working hard

21:13to get the victim's family a statement.

21:25A pile of trash was found from Dolomite Beach in Manila

21:29after a heavy downpour

21:31that was intensified by Hurricane Karina.

21:34Manny Vargas of Super Radio-DZW has more on the spot.

21:38Manny?

21:40Yes, Ms. Connie.

21:41The Department of Environment and Natural Resources

21:45and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority

21:47are working hard to clean and repair Dolomite Beach

21:50here in the city of Manila.

21:52This was followed by a heavy downpour

21:55that brought a pile of trash

21:57and affected the maintenance of the beaches.

21:59In some parts of Dolomite Beach,

22:01there are parts that were damaged by the downpour.

22:04Most of the bags of trash that were collected

22:07and are still being collected

22:08were placed in plastic bags

22:10for eating and drinking,

22:12aside from the trees and parts of the plants that were watched.

22:15Although we were able to get videos

22:17of the help of the cleaners,

22:19the security personnel of Dolomite Beach

22:22did not allow Super Radio-DZW

22:24to cover the cleanup drive

22:26without a direct permission from the DNR.

22:29The Department of Environment and Natural Resources

22:31has not yet announced anything about this.

22:33Ms. Connie?

22:34Thank you very much, Manny Vargas of Super Radio-DZW.

22:39The problem of some residents in Pangasinan streets

22:42is getting worse.

22:43And on the spot,

22:44we have Joanne Punsoy of GMA Regional TV.

22:47Joanne?

22:52Rafi,

22:53the residents here in Anolid Barangay,

22:56Maldan, Pangasinan,

22:57woke up to a flood due to a sandstorm.

23:02The Payas Creek flooded here in Anolid Barangay.

23:05It was the end of the continuous rainfall in the area,

23:08the end of the strong winds

23:09that forced the karina typhoon to pass.

23:12The flood was gutter-deep in Bukanan, Barangay.

23:14But in some houses,

23:16especially in the low-lying areas,

23:18there was heavy rain.

23:20Aside from houses and roads,

23:22some rice fields were also flooded.

23:25Anolid Elementary School was also flooded.

23:28No resident has fled yet

23:30because they are used to floods every year.

23:33Residents are also being informed of the flood.

23:36Families are being asked to prepare

23:38and follow in case a pre-emptive evacuation is carried out.

23:42Rafi, for now,

23:43there is a chance that the rain will stop here in the province of Pangasinan.

23:47Compared to yesterday,

23:48the amount of water in the rivers and streams here in the town is already decreasing.

23:53Even so, residents are still preparing for a possible flood

23:57because they are also expecting water to come down from upstream.

24:01Rafi?

24:02Thank you very much, Joan Ponsoy of GMA Regional TV.

24:07Meanwhile, let's update on the relief operations of DSWD

24:11in the affected town.

24:13We will talk to DSWD Spokesperson, Asek Aireen Dumlao.

24:17Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.

24:19This is Connie Sison.

24:22Good morning, Ma'am Connie.

24:23Good morning to everyone who is following your program.

24:26Yes, Asek.

24:27How are we doing in the relief operation efforts of DSWD?

24:32Are there areas that we haven't been able to help yet

24:35or have we already covered all of them?

24:39Well, Ma'am Connie,

24:40we are still sending family food packs and food items to the affected areas,

24:47particularly to NCR, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, and also to Mimaropa.

24:56As we speak, Ma'am Connie,

24:58we have more than 600,000 family food packs prepositioned to LGUs.

25:05Some have already been picked up by the LGUs.

25:08Some are ongoing delivery.

25:11In terms of what we have received,

25:14yes, we have received all the requests from LGUs.

25:20As I said, there are ongoing transport of goods from our National Resource Operations Center

25:28to the local government units.

25:31But since the other day, Ma'am Connie,

25:34we have coordinated with the local government units,

25:38the DRM Focals, and the CSWDOs,

25:41just to ensure a seamless, efficient distribution of goods, Ma'am Connie.

25:46Yes.

25:47And Asek, in your monitoring,

25:49what are the areas where you need the most help?

25:55Well, of course, aside from the National Capital Region,

25:58one of the areas we are focusing on is Central Luzon,

26:01particularly in Bulacan and Bataan.

26:04Because we have also been reported by the evacuation centers

26:10to evacuate their homes because of the flood in their areas.

26:14And many have also declared a state of calamity in their areas.

26:19My question is, is there any additional help that the DSWD will provide?

26:25Ma'am Connie, because we are still in the response phase,

26:30most of what we are sending are family food packs and non-food items

26:35just to meet the needs of our affected communities.

26:40But rapid damage assessment and needs analysis by the DSWD-QRD

26:46is also ongoing in coordination with the LGUs.

26:49In this manner, Ma'am Connie,

26:51we will look at the situation on the ground.

26:54We will look at how we can infuse additional interventions

26:58such as cash for work that needs to be cleaned in their community

27:02or other interventions under the assistance to individuals in crisis situation.

27:07This is what we will look at as we enter the recovery phase.

27:10But it is very important that we are conducting the ARDANA

27:15so that we know what additional assistance may be extended.

27:19Yes, always in coordination, of course, with the local government

27:22As I mentioned earlier,

27:26are there any reminders from the DSWD to some groups or individuals

27:30who are initiating a feeding program or who are collecting donations for those in need?

27:37Well, Ma'am Connie, the coordination with the local government units is very critical

27:43in case you want to provide additional assistance to their area.

27:49On the part of the DSWD, you may get in touch with us

27:52so that you can help us considering that we already have a call for volunteers

27:59for repacking our family food box at the National Resource Operations Center

28:04at Chapel Road, Pasay.

28:06So if you are interested or your group is interested,

28:08kindly proceed to Enroque in Pasay City.

28:11That's at Chapel Road so that our personnel can orientate you.

28:15For donations, you may also get in touch with the DSWD

28:19through our official communication platforms.

28:22Okay, so the DSWD has websites for your numbers as well.

28:27Thank you very much, Ma'am.

28:29And now, DSWD Spokesperson Asek Irene Dumlao.

28:35Classes will start next week in several places in the country due to the widespread flooding.

28:41According to Education Secretary Sonny Angara,

28:43there are still a lot of things to be fixed and cleaned up in the affected schools.

28:47The list of schools will be released today as the number of schools has been postponed.

28:52According to DepEd, more than 300 schools from 6 regions are being used as evacuation centers.

28:5970 schools from 7 regions have been closed.

29:03It is estimated that 630 million pesos will be spent

29:07for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of the affected schools.

29:13Thank you very much.

29:20Aside from the houses affected by the floods,

29:24in Batangas, due to the bad weather,

29:27Paul Hernandez of GMA Regional TV is on the spot.

29:32Paul?

29:34This is an ongoing assessment carried out by Batangas PDRRMO

29:39in areas affected by heavy rains and floods.

29:43For now, we are experiencing a peaceful time here in Ibaan Batangas

29:48where we are standing right now.

29:53Due to the strong winds of Hurricane Karina,

29:57several farms in the province of Batangas were flooded.

30:01In Nusugbu, Batangas, several rice fields were damaged.

30:05According to the local government,

30:07around 100 hectares of rice were damaged by various barangays.

30:11If the weather continues to improve,

30:13it is expected that the water level will also drop today.

30:16According to the information of the Provincial Agriculture Office,

30:19the damage caused by the bad weather in agriculture in the province of Batangas

30:24is already up to 36.2 million pesos.

30:27Farms such as rice, corn, and other high-value crops

30:31such as farm vegetables and fruits were damaged.

30:34This is a possible increase.

30:37The Provincial Agriculturist assured the farmers

30:41that they are ready to distribute planting materials and fertilizers.

30:46The PDRRMO-Batangas assessment is still ongoing

30:50in areas affected by heavy rains and floods.

30:54Meanwhile, Connie, in Nusugbu, Batangas,

30:57where landslides were reported in the past few days,

31:00road clearing is not yet underway

31:03because Nusugbu MDRRMO said that the soil and rocks are still saturated or wet.

31:09If the weather improves and the weather continues to get hotter,

31:13road clearing will also begin.

31:15Connie.

31:16Thank you very much.

32:39Let's update on the situation in Ninoy Aquino International Airport

32:42where several passengers were cancelled.

32:46We have on the spot, Ralph Obina of Super Radio DZBB. Ralph.

32:52Connie, we still have several countrymen who are waiting for their flight to Naia

32:57after being cancelled due to bad weather.

33:01Some of them are here at the terminal, passing through at night.

33:05They each have their own cartons so that they can rest.

33:08We talked to someone who is waiting for their flight to Kuwait.

33:12Their OFW is family and they are on vacation here in the Philippines.

33:17On July 24, they were cancelled on their trip from Zamboanga City to Manila due to bad weather.

33:23Yesterday, they arrived in Naia, but they were cancelled on their trip from Manila to Kuwait.

33:29Tomorrow, they will get a flight to Kuwait again.

33:32That's why they will stay here in Naia.

33:35Meanwhile, in a statement by Super Radio DZBB,

33:38Atty. Chris Bendijo, spokesman for the MIAA,

33:41stated that the commitment of airline companies is to pursue recovery flights.

33:46His priority is to provide available flights to those who are being pursued, such as OFWs.

33:52Those who are not being pursued are scheduled to be re-booked in other countries

33:57or placed in the Travel Fund of the passenger.

34:00Bendijo said that it depends on the weather if they will be able to cancel their flights.

34:05That's why they are hoping that the weather will get better.

34:09Thank you very much, Ralph Obina of Super Radio DZBB.

34:14The office of the Vice President confirmed that Vice President Sara Duterte and her family have a personal trip abroad.

34:20This is followed by their conclusion that the departure of the VCS is in line with the weather forecast of Hurricane Karina and strong winds.

34:28According to the OVP, the trip of the Vice President is in line with the Travel Authority

34:34initiated by the Office of the President on July 9.

34:37However, they confirmed that they will continue to provide assistance to the families affected by the calamity.

34:42This includes the distribution of food and relief bags to more than 300 families in Barangay Manresa in Quezon City.

34:51Followed by the disaster of the typhoon, the residents of Novaliches, Quezon City are now facing a problem

34:57after their livelihood was set on fire.

35:06At 5 a.m. earlier, stores in Barangay Santa Monica were set on fire.

35:12According to the sellers, they immediately fled because of the black and thick smoke.

35:17The fire spread quickly because the stores were close to each other.

35:21This was also seen in other parts of the city.

35:24The Bureau of Fire Protection raised the third alarm where 22 firetrucks responded.

35:32It was past 6 a.m. earlier when the fire was under control.

35:35No one was injured or injured in the incident.

35:39The BFP continues to monitor the fire and the overall situation of Pinzala.

35:47A motorcycle rider in Cebu City was dead on the spot after he was hit by a motorcycle on the road.

35:52CCTV footage shows two motorcycles in Barangay Tisa.

35:57One of the motorcycles went straight to the center island.

36:00The rider's helmet was damaged.

36:03According to the investigation of the Cebu City Police Traffic Enforcement Unit,

36:07the motorcycle ran fast and the man was still drunk.

36:11According to the rider's friend, they were drunk but the victim was not drunk.

36:16The rider's relative is not available.

36:21Meanwhile, a man was killed after he was shot outside a bar in Iloilo.

36:27CCTV footage shows the victim and several other customers inside the bar in the town of Pavia.

36:33They were also found drunk.

36:35According to the owner of the bar, there were two people who insisted to add more drinks but he refused.

36:42When it was about to be released, one of the two was shot by another group who went home after the fight.

36:48In the separate CCTV footage, the confrontation of the two groups can be seen.

36:53Just a while later, a man was hit on the head by another man who was also followed by other men.

37:01The men immediately ran away.

37:03The victim even returned to the place and ran away.

37:07When he was able to leave, he heard a gunshot.

37:10The victim was able to recover from the wound on his body and the bullet hit his head.

37:15The search for the suspects that were identified by Iloilo City continues.

37:24In Sagna, Cabarinas Sur, a man was found dead after he was hit by a papaya tree.

37:30According to the police, the tree fell in the kitchen of the victim's house while he was washing his food.

37:38He was dead on arrival at the hospital.

37:40Based on the autopsy report, the victim was hit on the head with a stick and there was blood on his head.

37:45It is possible that he was a member of the family, especially that their mother died last week.

37:54A resort in Tanay, Rizal was closed, located in a protected area and watershed.

37:59The destruction of the watershed is one of the reasons for the heavy flooding in Rizal.

38:07This is the story of John Consulta.

38:16With the DNR, the NBI-Rizal and NBI-Cavite joined forces to enter the resort in Tanay, Rizal

38:24which was heavily flooded.

38:26The heavy equipment was caught while they were walking.

38:31Within more than 5 hectares of compound, many structures such as cafeteria, rooms, camping area, ATV track and coffee shop were damaged.

38:43The local government and the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office

38:48approached the NBI to complain about the damaged structure inside Caliwa River Forest Reserve,

38:55a protected area and watershed.

38:58The operation of the resort continues even though the municipality of Tanay already has a cease and desist order.

39:17According to NBI-Cavite, NBI Director Jamie Santiago also pointed out to them

39:22the environmental losses such as the destruction of Rizal's watersheds

39:27which are subject to flooding in low-lying areas in the province such as Montalban and San Mateo

39:33and the nearby Marikina.

39:35Watersheds are a natural obstacle to the occasional flood.

39:44Because of the flooding initially, if there are no trees in our watersheds and protected areas,

39:55the flooding will be faster in low-lying areas and it will cause massive flooding

40:04just like what happened in Marikina and Metro Manila.

40:09According to the JMA News Research, the forest cover in Rizal decreased by 26% in 2020 compared to 2003.

40:19The DNR can continue the forefeature proceedings against the owners of the structures

40:29and it can be used against the government or it can be destroyed in order to restore the environment.

40:42Tanay already closed the resort while two cashiers and two backhoe operators were arrested.

40:48They were jailed in the NBI detention facility in Bilibid but we are trying to get justice.

40:54They are facing the complaint of flooding in the National Integrated Protected Areas or NIPAS Act

41:00that has been jailed for 6 to 10 years.

41:03John Consulta reporting for JMA Integrated News.

41:08Adventure-packed and enriching vacation experience is waiting for more than 200 Filipinos

41:14in a very important Filipino tour this year.

41:17Their itinerary includes the best tourist spots in Metro Manila, Bacolod City, and Cagayan de Oro.

41:24Before that, they went to a welcome dinner.

41:27JMA Pinoy TV also presented games, dances, and prizes.

41:33The very important tour is a project of the Department of Foreign Affairs

41:37together with the Tourism Promotions Board of the Department of Tourism.

41:41The spirit of Bayanihan is alive even in these difficult times.

41:45Muscle Up donated more than 700 relief packs.

41:49Capuso Primetime, King and Queen, Ding Dong Dantes, and Marian Rivera from the JMA Capuso Foundation.

41:55Marian and Nazia, Sixto, and the Dong Yan team packed the relief packs.

42:05We are able to gather that many relief packs.

42:09We are able to gather that many relief packs to distribute to our fellow Filipinos.

42:16King and King, Ding Dong Dantes.

42:18Capua Navy Reservists, Rico Roconacino, and Miss Universe Philippines 2021, Beatriz Luigi Gomez, also helped.

42:27At the request of the JMA Capuso Foundation, they delivered relief goods to those in Lantasa, Marikina.

42:34One of the few things that we do as a reservist,

42:37wherever there is a need, we are there especially at the JMA Capuso Foundation.

42:42We are able to bring smiles here, so that is a big thing.

42:46I personally experienced this in 2021 during Odette.

42:51So I know what it feels like.

42:56Let's be careful this weekend, Capuso.

42:59This is Balitang Hali, and we are part of a bigger mission.

43:03I am Connie Sison.

43:04I am Rafi Tima.

43:05Join me, Obri Carampe.

43:07For a broader service to the country.
