Transcript

00:00In an attempt to help clean up oil spills in Bataan and nearby areas,

00:05a barber in the public called to donate his cut hair, Benji Durango, in the report.

00:14Not only will barber Michael cut hair, he has a mission now for his countrymen in Bulacan.

00:20This Facebook post is trending now.

00:22He is calling all barber shops, salons and parlors to donate their cut hair to make a hair boom or hair mat

00:28that can be used in oil spills from a submerged barge in Bataan.

00:32The group Greenpeace Philippines

00:34found out that it is possible to reach Hagonoy, Bulacan ng Langis

00:37that will have a big impact on their livelihood based on their aerial shot.

00:41They saw a thick and wide oil shale in the Manila Bay near Hagonoy, Bulacan.

00:46That's why, like Michael, it's a double time now.

00:49It's for me to help in Lagis so I can go to the sea, right?

00:54Because I always watch it.

00:57I also took advantage of this opportunity to cut Michael's hair.

01:01Not because my hair is long, but I want to be a part of their donation drive

01:07that can donate hair to maintain the cleanliness of their sea here in Bulacan.

01:16So, here it is.

01:18The fishermen in Bulacan really have a big responsibility that needs to be protected.

01:23One day, the Provincial Government of Bulacan reminded the fishermen

01:28that early in the morning, the fish can be used for fishing.

01:31The fishermen in Bulacan should be alert

01:35that the fish can be used for fishing

01:39and not to wait for the oil to reach us.

01:45It's only now that Bulacan is rising after several years of flooding.

01:48Here in Maycawayan, people are still lining up for relief goods.

01:52We need preventive measures, we need anticipation,

01:57and we need abrupt action.

01:59It's hard to do that in Catedral Galau.

02:02But in a report by an independent monitoring agency,

02:04the oil scene is getting worse.

02:06It's good for Bulacan, but it's a headache for the nearby province.

02:10He's thankful to people like Michael who are ready to stand up for the province.

02:15But they were shocked by the effects of the floods last week.

02:18They won't be affected this time.

02:20Michael said, this is not a barbarian story.

02:22And these hair will be their shield

02:25to fight the upcoming danger.

02:28From here in Bulacan, Benji Durango for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
