00:00Good afternoon to you, Asec Del.

00:02Good afternoon, Ninia.

00:04And we saw that the President is constantly traveling to different places, right?

00:09Now, he's here in Quezon.

00:12What is the President's role and does he really go to these places one by one?

00:17Yes, Ninia.

00:18If you notice, since yesterday, the President has been going to the places that have floods,

00:23like Navotas and Valenzuela.

00:30Earlier, he was in Quezon, and now, the President will be going to Rizal later.

00:36Of course, the President wants to see the personnel and know the effects of the recent floods

00:47here in the places, not just here in Metro Manila, but in the neighboring towns as well.

00:52And if we go back to Wednesday, I think the President went down to meet with the NDRRMC and all

01:04to check and find out what is really happening.

01:09We saw his dedication when it comes to these things.

01:13We saw that he's there on the ground.

01:16And he was accompanied by the people in the area.

01:19Yesterday, I saw that they were there on the side.

01:21And what was the reaction of the people when he went to their place?

01:28Yes.

01:28The videos that came out when the President arrived, I think in one of the evacuation centers,

01:35I'm not sure if it's in Navotas or in Valenzuela,

01:38that they were happy when they saw the President.

01:40I think somehow, it helped with their compassion.

01:46We know what's happening now.

01:48Somehow, they saw that the President is there doing something to help them.

01:55Yes, and the fact that he went to your place, that's a big thing for our residents.

02:01Especially those who went to Malabon, Navotas, and Valenzuela.

02:06Some of them still have their houses flooded.

02:11They can't go down, and they can't buy food.

02:15So, our fellow countrymen are hungry.

02:18Even if they can't afford to buy food.

02:20So, that's one of the things that our government is looking at,

02:25how they can get help.

02:27Yes, and the President gave a directive to the Department of Health

02:32to make sure that the health services are available to the people in the evacuation centers.

02:42Because it's important.

02:44Because there are people who died in the flood.

02:46There are also people who are suffering from diseases like this.

02:50Yes, not just leptospirosis,

02:52it's also prone to cancer, obesity, infectious diseases,

02:57and even diarrhea.

02:59It's also one of the things that the Department of Health is monitoring.

03:02We'll be joining the Department of Health later.

03:05So, look forward to the reminders from them.

03:09But thank you very much, Asic Dale.

03:11I just want to say that it's so nice to see our President going down

03:15and really meeting our fellow countrymen,

03:19especially those affected by the floods.
