00:00The flood still does not reach some parts of Bulacan and Pangasinan.
00:05Residents are discharging themselves to cross the daily activities.
00:10Jun Veneracion is a witness.
00:16At the top of the flood,
00:17on the second floor of their house where Lola Milagros and her grandchildren are staying,
00:22in Barangay Talibaeo in Kalasyao, Pangasinan.
00:25The flood is deep.
00:28That's why we cannot go out.
00:30We are here at the top.
00:32This is where we cook.
00:34Payas Creek also flooded.
00:36It flooded up to 20 in Barangay Anolid in Mangagdan, Pangasinan.
00:41Two days ago, there was a flood on the side of the river in Barangay Poblacion, Linggayan, Pangasinan.
00:46That's why the residents' belongings are on the seats.
00:50Almost Php 100 million has been spent on agriculture and infrastructure in the province.
00:56In Kalumpit, Bulacan, the water left by the Karina and Habagat floods has not yet receded.
01:02The residents are discharging themselves.
01:04Not only their belongings are on the seats,
01:06but also the chickens laid on the roof.
01:09Sometimes, they are laid on the roof.
01:11If not, they will drown.
01:13They cannot be fed.
01:14That's why we are laying them on the roof.
01:18We are laying them on the roof so that they can be fed.
01:21If you have a car, you will be lost here.
01:24That's why some people have a boat parked at home.
01:27When we bought this, it was Php 7,000.
01:32You see, Php 7,000.
01:33How many years has it been?
01:34Maybe it's been 9 years.
01:38It's worth it.
01:39It's worth it.
01:40No one flooded, even private subdivisions.
01:44In the past floods, there was land to be found in their area.
01:48Now, it's just water.
01:55It's hard, sir.
01:56It's hard to do.
01:58It's hard to do a good job.
02:00Because the cars are hard to drive on the flood,
02:03even lawn tractors are being used to drive the residents.
02:07That's the only thing that can help them to get out and get in.
02:11There are more than 127,000 affected residents in Calumpit.
02:15Now, almost all of them have flooded.
02:1729 barangays, especially the subdivisions.
02:21This one is a bit long.
02:23Because of the high tide.
02:25The high tide is already there.
02:28Because Calumpit is a catch basin,
02:30the flood has become a part of the life of the residents here.
02:33This is our building.
02:35But as you can see now, it has become an instant swimming pool for the children.
02:39There are other residents of this barangay in the town of Calumpit, Bulacan.
02:45This is the effect of the heavy rains accompanied by the high tide.
02:49The water of the two dams, Ipu Dam and Bustos Dam, will be lost.
02:54That's why the residents here have a new home.
02:59In the town of Hagonoy, in the middle of the flood,
03:02the position for the parties in the area still continues.
