00:00The storm is getting stronger as it moves away from the Philippine Area of Responsibility, according to the weather forecast.

00:08But it is expected that it will continue to rain in the next few days.

00:12Until now, a lot of places are still flooded in Luzon.

00:15Like a barangay near Laguna de Valle.

00:18Saksi Live with Niko Wahe.

00:20Niko?

00:21Atom Pia is still flooded in Barangay De La Paz in Binan, Laguna.

00:29Unlike other flooded places, where the water quickly evaporates when it rains,

00:33here, it takes a week.

00:35Sometimes, it takes a month.

00:43Barangay De La Paz in Binan, Laguna is one of the places near Laguna de Valle.

00:48That's why if it continues to rain, like in Baguio-Enteng,

00:51it only takes a minute and it will flood.

00:54Today, it didn't rain that much, but the flood is still high.

00:58Actually, the water just stayed in the banks.

01:01It has been a problem for a long time.

01:05Aside from being a low-lying area, it is also near Laguna.

01:12Once the water level in Laguna de Valle overflows,

01:21the water automatically goes to residential areas.

01:25Barangay De La Paz is also next to a river.

01:27That's why they are the catch basin when it rains.

01:30Residents have nothing to do.

01:32We are used to it.

01:34We are just here.

01:39No matter how fast the flood enters the barangay,

01:41it is still slow to come out.

01:43The water level in Laguna de Valle is already high.

01:46That's why if it doesn't come out immediately,

01:48it will take a week to reach Manila Bay.

01:53Sometimes, it takes a month to come out.

01:56The last flood didn't last that long.

02:00It was like two weeks.

02:02But as of the moment, before Baguio-Enteng,

02:06we were able to recover.

02:08Actually, we were able to recover.

02:10Suddenly, Baguio-Enteng came.

02:12So, it's back to zero.

02:14Because the residents of Barangay De La Paz are used to flooding,

02:18they learned to adjust to the time.

02:20The houses here, if it's not high,

02:22there are second floors.

02:24Because it's just a road,

02:26the flood reaches up to the neck.

02:28Luisa's house was flooded.

02:31She can't move because of the stroke.

02:33It's not just a week, it's a month already.

02:37How many months already?

02:39It's a month already.

02:40One month already?

02:41Yes.

02:42It started in August.

02:44And now, it's really hard.

02:48It's a good thing that she can't reach the sofa she's lying on.

02:51Despite the flood,

02:53many residents are still looking for food.

02:57Like Mads.

02:58She has a shop selling gulaman and popcorn.

03:00It's for food.

03:02It's for rice and vegetables.

03:07She's been living here for two decades

03:09and experienced the worst flood in Barangay De La Paz.

03:12Like Mads, the residents are still alive.

03:16The barangay and the houses are still looking for food.

03:20I just go inside.

03:21Sometimes, I just walk.

03:23Here, we're banking.

03:26It's really hard when it rains like this.

03:33Atompia, residents are not allowed to evacuate here.

03:37That's why the rescue team of the barangay is always on standby

03:40to evacuate the residents in case of flooding.

03:44And live from Binan, Laguna,

03:46for GMA Integrated News,

03:48I'm Niko Aje, your witness.
