00:00The sky in California turned red in the face of a new wildfire.

00:10In addition to the two large wildfires in the Metropolitan,

00:14where the fire engulfed hectares of land.

00:18It is difficult for firefighters to stop the spread of the fire,

00:21which was intensified by the wind.

00:23In Los Angeles County, which witnessed heavy smoke,

00:27it was also seen in a time-lapse video of the explosion and spread of the new wildfire.

00:33More than 30,000 people were evacuated.

00:39It is now difficult to implement a law that recognizes same-sex marriage in Thailand.

00:44More than 200 same-sex couples were married today

00:48in the first ever same-sex mass wedding in Bangkok.

00:52It was organized by Thai members of the LGBT community.

00:56Marriage is for them and the protection of the family.

01:01Thailand is the first country in Southeast Asia to legalize same-sex marriage.

01:06However, there are still some limitations in the law,

01:09such as the concept of parenthood,

01:11because biological sex is not yet allowed for transgenders.

01:18Is it a game for you to cross the giant water slide?

01:22But not in the theme park, but in the dam that was damaged in Davao del Sur.

01:27Let's go there with Ian Cruz.

01:32Giant water slide?

01:36It's not a theme park, but a spillway in a dam that is 25 meters high.

01:42It's not a theme park, but a spillway in a dam that is 25 meters high.

01:50This is the Miral Small Reservoir Irrigation Project in Davao del Sur.

01:55It was built by Norme Garcia.

01:58It was very enjoyable.

02:00I felt mixed emotions at that time,

02:02because when we reached the top, we had to go down.

02:05It was really fast.

02:06There was no one guarding the dam, but they were allowed to take a bath.

02:10Although there are people who slide,

02:12the country and the LGU always remind those who come here to slide to be careful.

02:19They say, at your own risk.

02:22The barangay there first instructed the bathers not to sweat, especially if it rains.

02:31But even if you don't take a bath, you can still enjoy the beautiful view around the dam.

02:39The clean water comes from Mt. Apo.

02:43The reservoir also serves as an attraction for more than 800 hectares of farmers in the country.
