00:00Whether it's visiting relatives or selling candles and flowers,
00:04visitors to Manila South Cemetery are being discarded early.
00:09Let's update on the situation there live from Makati City.
00:13Here's the first news, Jomer Apresto. Jomer.
00:20The number of visitors to the points here in Manila South Cemetery is continuously increasing.
00:25Yesterday, more than 13,000 visitors arrived here.
00:29But that's still not enough because visitors are really hoping for a flood here.
00:38Manila South Cemetery is just about to open, but some people came here early.
00:43That's so that it won't get hot and people won't be able to avoid the flood later.
00:48For example, 71-year-old Ms. Zenaida, along with her brother and niece.
00:54They are selling flowers outside, so they will stop visiting relatives.
01:07Ms. Sita, along with her husband, are visiting their relatives.
01:16Based on the latest PNP data, there are more than 300 people
01:20who are expected to visit here from 5 a.m.
01:24While more than 21,000 are expected to visit here from October 30.
01:30Just like before, visitors will be inspected first.
01:33They will inspect the prohibited items such as matches,
01:38alcohol, sound systems, cigarettes, and flammable materials.
01:41There are also wheelchairs for PWD, Buntis, and senior citizens.
01:46And because vehicles are not allowed to enter,
01:49there are still e-vehicles here that will take visitors to their destination.
01:54If you don't know the exact destination of your relatives,
01:57you can ask the help desk of Manila South Cemetery,
02:00which is located near the entrance of the cemetery.
02:03If there are no flowers or candles, many people are selling them inside and outside the cemetery.
02:08The cheapest candle is P10, while the most expensive one is P180.
02:13While the cheapest flower is P50, while the most expensive one is P300.
02:23Meanwhile, aside from the PNP,
02:25some rescue volunteers are also inside the cemetery to help the people who will visit here.
02:30Manila South Cemetery is open until 7 p.m.
02:34And that is the first news from here.
02:36I am Jomer Apresto for GMI Integrated News.
