00:00Good morning to those who just woke up.
00:02Just now at 4.41am, Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints walked.
00:06That was earlier, from the Quirino Grandstand.
00:12And some, from the observations of many,
00:15are now in a better state of trust,
00:18no more grudges, no more pushing.
00:20Because again, the authorities of the Church Of Christ,
00:25of our PNP-MMDA,
00:27are not allowed to ride on the road.
00:30Meanwhile, there is also a confusion
00:32among the Ijos del Nazareno and the devotees
00:35about the non-closing of the road for motorists.
00:39And we have first news from Jonathan Andal.
00:42So, Jonathan, what is the situation there?
00:47We will go back to Jonathan Andal
00:50and maybe he will stop the translation.
00:54Let's go back to Jonathan Andal. How are you?
01:06There was a confusion among the Ijos
01:09because the road was not closed for motorists.
01:13That is dangerous. Jonathan?
01:15There is a problem here with the traffic
01:17because this route of translation to Taft Avenue
01:21is open to motorists.
01:22So, the Ijos are now wondering
01:25why this part of Taft Avenue
01:30was not closed in front of the National Museum.
01:33As you can see in our video,
01:35there are heavy traffic jams.
01:39Here in Taft Avenue,
01:41this is a part of the Finance Road in front of the National Museum.
01:45So, last year, the Ijos told me
01:47that this part of Taft Avenue was closed for motorists.
01:51But now, they are wondering why it was closed.
01:54They asked the MTPB
01:57and they told the MTPB that it should be the police
02:00or the Manila District Traffic Unit
02:03that closed the road here in Taft Avenue.
02:09So, until now, if we ask the motorists
02:12to avoid this part of Taft Avenue
02:14in front of the National Museum
02:16because the traffic is so slow.
02:19The motorists and vehicles are giving way here.
02:23So, if you want to stop the traffic,
02:25the motorists will pass
02:26and if you want to stop the motorists,
02:29the vehicles will pass
02:31here in Taft Avenue.
02:32The head of the procession
02:36has already passed the TUP,
02:39has already passed our station
02:42in the National Museum.
02:44The latest from here
02:46to the National Museum.
02:47Back to you, Igan.
02:48Thank you very much, Jonathan Andal.
02:52Kaloy, in.
02:54Thank you, Igan.
02:55Igan, there are a lot of devotees
02:56in what we are going through right now.
02:59And when a person falls like that,
03:01safety first, of course.
03:03Safety first always, right?
03:04Here are some safety tips, Iva,
03:07on what can be done
03:08to stay safe in these situations.
03:11Ivan, good morning.
03:14Kaloy, good morning.
03:15This kind of huge crowds
03:18of people,
03:19it's always related to the risk
03:21of getting hurt,
03:23of getting stuck,
03:24of getting panicked,
03:25of getting stamped.
03:28That's why it's good news
03:29that what happened earlier,
03:30the start of the translation,
03:32went well.
03:33But of course, it's still good to talk about,
03:35as you mentioned,
03:36safety first.
03:38That's why this morning,
03:38we will talk to Martin Aguda,
03:41a certified emergency manager,
03:43to talk about
03:45these kinds of situations
03:46where there are a lot of people.
03:47Please join me, sir.
03:48Good morning.
03:49Hi, good morning.
03:50Thank you, thank you.
03:50We saw that the start of the translation
03:53went well.
03:55But of course, we are still watching
03:57because as the time goes by,
03:59there are still a lot of people there.
04:00There are people who are still trying to join.
04:02And let's talk about the crowd movement.
04:05This movement of people here,
04:08it's not a common crowd.
04:09But please tell us,
04:11what should we watch out for here?
04:12What are the kinds of crowd movements?
04:15The challenge with a stampede,
04:18or our crowd disasters,
04:20there are two major factors.
04:21The number of people,
04:22the sheer magnitude of the people,
04:24that's what we call our density.
04:25So if it reaches seven persons,
04:27that's even higher.
04:28That's dangerous.
04:29The people will be agitated.
04:31And we can see that
04:32here in the crowd of translation.
04:34Secondly,
04:35the movement that we are talking about,
04:37we usually don't like
04:40unnecessary movement.
04:41That movement,
04:42that kind of movement,
04:44the craze,
04:44it means that something is going on,
04:47the crowd is tight,
04:48possibly there will be a problem,
04:50possibly there will be a stampede.
04:51However,
04:52here in the translation that we can see,
04:54their craze movement towards the crowd,
04:58the movement of the masses,
05:00they expect that.
05:01The crowd is tight,
05:03and there is a movement
05:04that is really challenging.
05:06But here,
05:07they have what they call choreography.
05:10When we watch it,
05:12we feel like it's really chaotic.
05:14But actually,
05:15they have choreography that they follow.
05:17There are commands.
05:18We can see that the people are literally moving.
05:21The other movement
05:23in a crowd disaster,
05:26is the panic.
05:28When there is an emergency,
05:30the tendency of the people
05:31is to go away
05:33or away from the threat.
05:34And that's what we don't want to happen.
05:35And we don't want that to happen, of course.
05:37Do you have any tips
05:39Of course,
05:40they're already there.
05:41But maybe in the future,
05:43or maybe they're just about to go.
05:44What are the tips
05:45that you can give
05:46so that their safety is more secure
05:49in participating in this activity?
05:51Well, this is a religious activity.
05:54But this is also a physical activity.
05:56We remember that there is a storm,
05:59which is also physically challenging.
06:01So maybe we should condition it.
06:03It's not just about being prepared,
06:09but our body should be ready.
06:11Our body should be physically ready.
06:13You don't have to ask, Sir Martin.
06:14I experienced that in 2013.
06:17It's really a different physical challenge,
06:20even for someone
06:21who is reasonably fit and healthy.
06:23Anyway,
06:23maybe you can demonstrate
06:27how you can protect yourself
06:30when you're involved in such an activity.
06:33Well,
06:33when we're involved in a crowd,
06:36we usually can't breathe
06:39because of the compressive asphyxiation.
06:41When you're out of breath,
06:42you can't breathe.
06:43So to protect our torso,
06:46we can do the boxer's pose.
06:48Boxer's pose.
06:49Let's show them.
06:51There.
06:52So,
06:53so that we have space
06:56for one person.
06:58We have space
07:01for us to breathe.
07:03Because it's usually hot.
07:05It's hard for us to breathe
07:07when we're compressed
07:10against the body of another person.
07:13So another, actually,
07:14when you're trampled
07:16or you're sinking,
07:17in the worst case scenario.
07:19This has already happened.
07:19When you're stumped
07:21or you're stuck,
07:22how do you get out of that tight situation?
07:25Literally tight situation.
07:26If we can stand as soon as possible,
07:29when there are not many people,
07:30but when there are people running,
07:33the worst thing that can happen to us
07:34is that we'll be trampled
07:35if we lie flat.
07:37So what we'll do is
07:37we'll enlarge our body
07:39to the fetal position.
07:41Fetal position.
07:41Yes.
07:42There.
07:43What you can see on your screen,
07:44that's the fetal position.
07:46And we'll protect our head.
07:49So just in case,
07:49when we run,
07:50at least we'll be protected.
07:53Compared to when we're just lying flat
07:55that we can really run over.
07:57Because if it's like that,
07:57what are the risks?
07:59What are the injuries
08:00that we're victims of in a stumped?
08:02Well, one of them is what I said,
08:04the compressive asphyxia
08:05because you're stuck,
08:06you can't breathe.
08:07Asphyxia, it's like you're stuck.
08:08If you run out of oxygen,
08:10you become unconscious.
08:11Second, if you're in a stumped,
08:13you'll have multiple
08:15musculoskeletal injuries
08:16on your body,
08:17wounds.
08:18Right.
08:18In translation,
08:19our bones are stuck.
08:22So that's one of the injuries
08:23that we see
08:26here in our translation.
08:27To the event managers,
08:28to the authorities,
08:29what can we share with them?
08:32In managing situations
08:34or activities like this,
08:35how can we be the safest?
08:39Well, it's also very important
08:41to predict the crowd.
08:42Because it's very important
08:44in crowd management,
08:45the space,
08:46the space that we call it.
08:48Because if this is full,
08:50more than the prescribed capacity,
08:52that's where the problem starts.
08:55Second, the organizers should know
08:57the activities.
08:59They should understand
08:59what the activities are
09:01so that they can cater
09:02the crowd management plan
09:04based on the activities
09:06of an event.
09:06All right.
09:07Sir Martin, thank you very much
09:08for the tips that you gave us.
09:10Dear Kapuso,
09:10the safety of each one of us
09:13cannot be relied on.
09:15To the authorities,
09:15and it's still up to us,
09:17let's prepare well
09:19and find out
09:20how we can be secure,
09:22how we can be safe.
09:24Yes, Ate Sue and Ate Igan,
09:26the Fiesta Mass
09:28here in Quiapo Church
09:30will continue.
09:30And as we mentioned,
09:32there is only one entrance
09:34that can be entered
09:35by devotees
09:35who want to worship
09:37here in Quiapo Church.
09:38This is the road,
09:40Villalobos Street.
09:41Only there can the devotees
09:43who want to worship enter.
09:46And there,
09:46we will really see
09:48how tight
09:49the security is being implemented.
09:50In fact,
09:51we also went there
09:52and we need to go
09:55to the so-called
09:55mobile scan trailer
09:57and walk-through metal detector.
10:00And this is needed
10:01for all our items
10:03to be inspected.
10:05It's like going through an X-ray
10:06to make sure
10:07if there are prohibited items
10:11that the devotees
10:12want to wear.
10:13Or maybe they don't really want to wear it,
10:15but it was left in their bags
10:18and it's prohibited
10:19to bring it inside.
10:20So, it's confiscated.
10:21We saw earlier
10:22how they were confiscating
10:24scissors,
10:24bats,
10:25and the most confiscated items
10:27are lighters.
10:29And as we are showing now,
10:32behind me,
10:33there are really
10:34a lot of devotees
10:36while the time is passing,
10:37the number of devotees
10:38is continuously increasing.
10:40Aside from the Church,
10:42there are already a lot of devotees.
10:44There are still a lot of devotees
10:46here outside
10:46at Plaza Miranda
10:48who are waiting
10:48for the next Mass
10:49for them to enter
10:50inside the Church.
10:52And as we mentioned earlier,
10:54not all of the devotees
10:56are joining the translation
10:57like those who are coming here
10:59to the Church
11:00where they are just worshipping.
11:01But their faith
11:02will not be diminished
11:04even if they don't join
11:05the translation.
11:07And one of the devotees
11:12who are not joining the translation
11:14but their faith
11:15is still strong
11:17is Nanay Flora Soriano.
11:19She is 70 years old.
11:20Nanay, good morning to you.
11:22Good morning.
11:24Happy Fiesta!
11:26Nanay, I just want to ask,
11:28you are already 70 years old.
11:29How long have you been a devotee
11:32and a believer
11:34of Jesus Nazareno?
11:35And why did you start
11:38to believe in Him
11:39and become His devotee?
11:40I have been a devotee of the Lord
11:42for 18 years.
11:45I was not yet a mother,
11:47but I was already a devotee.
11:49Now that I am a mother
11:51for 17 years,
11:53I had a child
11:55who had a congenital heart disease.
11:57A congenital heart disease.
11:59He had no medicine
12:01to operate on him.
12:03There was a doctor
12:05who asked him
12:07to be operated on in America,
12:09but he did not agree.
12:11So I approached
12:13Sr. Nazareno.
12:15So your prayer
12:17increased during that time.
12:19Did your son listen to you?
12:2122 years.
12:23But you were already a devotee
12:25of Jesus Nazareno.
12:27Yes, I walked the path
12:29from the Lord's door
12:31to the altar.
12:33Now, with the mercy and help of the Lord,
12:35he is already 50 years old.
12:37Oh my God, he is already 50 years old
12:39and still alive.
12:41He is healthy.
12:43Even though
12:45your son has reached
12:47that age,
12:49why did you continue
12:51your faith and devotion
12:53to Sr. Nazareno?
12:55For me,
12:57I gave my life and my family's life
12:59to the Lord.
13:01He gave me
13:03everything I asked for.
13:05We are poor in life,
13:07but I know that everything I asked for
13:09from Him, I received.
13:11And as a thank you,
13:13aside from always going here
13:15to Quiapo,
13:17I went to Poon
13:19as a thank you to Him.
13:21I will serve Him
13:23until my last breath.
13:25Do you have a message
13:27that you would like to convey
13:29to other devotees,
13:31those who are not devotees
13:33but are still thinking?
13:35Yes, to those like me,
13:37who are still
13:39weak in their hearts,
13:41don't worry.
13:43Just put in your heart
13:45an intimate prayer
13:47and He will give you
13:49everything you ask for
13:51from Sr. Nazareno.
13:53Thank you so much.
13:55We also greet you
13:57because the story is so beautiful,
13:59very inspiring story
14:01that you shared with us.
14:03Even though it was only 22 years,
14:05now it is 50 years more.
14:07And of course, we hope
14:09that you continue
14:11the Lord's faith
14:13and that your body is very healthy
14:15so that you can serve the Lord even more.
14:17Thank you so much.
14:19Happy Fiesta!
14:21Thank you so much
14:23to Unang Hirip and to Ms. Maris.
14:43Thank you!
