00:00The death toll has increased to 125 due to the Christine and Leon floods.
00:06According to NDRMC, in Batangas,
00:09it is possible to fix one of the roads destroyed by the Christine flood within a month.
00:15Live from Agoncillo, Batangas, Maki Pulido, Maki.
00:23You know Emil, in the latest report of Batangas PDRRMO,
00:2721 roads remain impassable or not passable by vehicles.
00:33Some barangays are even isolated after the part of Talisay-Laurel-Agoncillo Road was destroyed.
00:45At the height of the August flood,
00:47there were branches and trees cut from the mountain.
00:50This part of Talisay-Laurel-Agoncillo Road was destroyed.
00:53This destroyed the town of Agoncillo and the town of Laurel.
00:56Residents say that they cannot cross to Laurel because a part of the road was destroyed.
01:02Because of this, in Agoncillo alone, two barangays and one place are isolated.
01:07DPWH is now building this to pass again.
01:10But according to the workers there, it may take another month.
01:14Because the road was destroyed,
01:16there are two ways for the residents to reach the center of the town of Agoncillo.
01:21From the other side, they can ride a boat or the residents will try to walk on the side of the mountain.
01:29They say that it will be difficult to walk.
01:32We were able to cross by riding a boat.
01:34But it's not a joke to walk here because the branches of trees cut from the mountain are blocking the road.
01:40The branches on the side of the mountain were cut by water, mud and wood.
01:45This is how deep the mud ran.
01:47This vehicle is almost full.
01:49It is also a sad memory for their houses.
01:52On the side of the road, this is the only place that is said to have completed the more than P96 million project of February 14, 2024
02:00for the construction, rehabilitation and slope protection of Talisay-Laurel-Agoncillo Road.
02:06Residents are still allowed to return,
02:09but some are forced to go while there is daylight to look for income.
02:13Beverly is one of them.
02:15She only has P60 left.
02:17She doesn't know what to do for the next few days
02:20because the two boats they are using to look for income were flooded.
02:25We don't have anywhere else to go because we are from Mindoro.
02:30This is the only place we can look for income.
02:33So this means that you don't have money now?
02:35We don't have.
02:36The bottom of their house is also flooded so they can't live there anymore.
02:40When they were told to leave the evacuation center, they can't go home.
02:45It's really hard.
02:47Why is it hard?
02:48Because we can't go home.
02:52We can't live here because the inside is full but the bottom is empty.
02:57Our children can't go inside.
03:01It's hard.
03:03Why can't they go inside?
03:05Because there is no way to pass.
03:08And of course, we are in evacuation.
03:11This is also the concern of many residents of Agoncillo that we talked to
03:14because their houses were destroyed by the typhoon.
03:17In total, there are more than 2,000 totally damaged houses in the entire province of Batangas.
03:23It's really hard.
03:25The floor is full of soil.
03:26It's really empty.
03:27It's like it was washed out.
03:28But the floor is still there.
03:29Many houses were also destroyed,
03:31such as Nelson's floating fish cage,
03:33which was fish-killed.
03:34There are three more inside.
03:36The typhoon also swept away all of its remains.
03:38That's why the typhoon is really a big challenge.
03:42Our floating fish cage was destroyed.
03:44The floor was also destroyed.
03:46Even the floor fell to the ground.
03:48I can't see it anymore.
03:49It's all gone.
03:50If the residents are hungry,
03:52even their pets,
03:54Beverly said,
03:56they should get help so that their pets can eat.
04:00The cleaning operations are ongoing,
04:02especially on the roadside of the floating fish cages.
04:05But because it's getting dry,
04:07a big problem here, Emil,
04:08is the sale of the floating fish cage.
04:10Emil?
04:11Thank you very much.
04:12Maki Pulido.
