00:00Meanwhile, it's hard to enter some parts of Adams, Ilocos Norte
00:05because of the damaged roads and bridges.
00:07We also watched closely where Darlene was live.
00:13Darlene!
00:17Vicky, the arrangement of some of the damaged roads and bridges in some places here in Ilocos Norte was delayed
00:22because of the upcoming typhoons.
00:25The three places in Adams are still isolated.
00:34The house is destroyed.
00:36There's no roof left.
00:38Where are the roofs?
00:40Alan was shocked when he saw the house that was destroyed by the typhoon last week in Adams, Ilocos Norte.
00:47There's no roof left.
00:49It was blown away.
00:51Almost nothing was left from the roof, walls, and other items inside.
00:55It's hard for us to start again because we don't have a job.
01:05When the typhoon stopped, we were really sad.
01:14This is how their house looks like now.
01:16It's covered with tiles, plastic, and plywood.
01:19But it's not affected by the wind and rain of the following typhoons.
01:24Yesterday, he felt like he was cut by a wound
01:28when the new wall made of iron was removed.
01:31I just prayed that the typhoon would end
01:36because we really don't know what to do.
01:43And he wasn't alone.
01:45Around Adams, the typhoon was very strong.
01:48Mother Maria's house was also destroyed.
01:50So even though she's 82 years old,
01:52she's helping to clean the trees, leaves, and other waste on the road
01:56to earn a little to make things and a house.
01:59I had a hard time because my kitchen was destroyed.
02:04Everything in the house was destroyed.
02:08In Poblacion 3, the spillway was blown away so the vehicles couldn't pass.
02:13This bridge was also cut and some parts were destroyed, even the cement.
02:17The ground and the floodway were also destroyed.
02:20From where I'm standing to that tree,
02:23the cement road was that long and was destroyed
02:26when the ground was blown away because of the landslide
02:30when the typhoon Marse cut it.
02:32Until now, the clearing operations are having a hard time
02:34because of the following typhoons.
02:37Clearing operations are dangerous to the workers
02:39because of the following typhoons.
02:41That's why it can't be cleared and passed.
02:43When we made the roads or landslides,
02:47when it rained, the roads were blown away.
02:50The airport was wasted.
02:52The roads were blown away.
02:54We couldn't clear our roads properly.
02:59Because of the damaged roads and landslides,
03:01the three locations of Adams, according to the MDRRMO,
03:04are isolated or can't be reached.
03:06When we provide relief,
03:08the four-wheels can't reach us.
03:10We have to walk.
03:12We have to carry it.
03:13It's like a single motorcycle, but it's risky.
03:16That's what we're doing.
03:18Help is also important,
03:20especially when the following typhoons hit the town.
03:23Because of the damaged roads,
03:25the residents can't travel.
03:28But like other places in Northern Luzon,
03:30the Calamity Fund of Adams is running out.
03:33We need help from the government,
03:37especially the provincial government,
03:40the national government,
03:41if they can help us.
03:43Number one is the equipment,
03:46the funded infrastructures,
03:50the food that people need,
03:54and the replacement for the agricultural damages.
04:04Vicky, for now,
04:05the entire province is still on alert
04:07for the upcoming typhoons.
04:09The affected residents are also gradually receiving help,
04:12aside from the family food packs from the DSWD.
04:15The provincial government of Ilocos Norte
04:18has also given construction materials
04:20to the residents whose houses were damaged.
04:23That's the latest from Ilocos Norte.
04:25Back to you, Vicky.
04:26Thank you very much, Darlene Cai.
