00:00 Our government is now filing a case against the 13 Filipinos who died in heavy flooding in the United Arab Emirates.
00:08 Mark Salazar has the report.
00:10 This road in Dubai, UAE, was flooded by a wide river
00:16 following the record-breaking rain this Tuesday.
00:20 It was hit by an OFW in Sardzhai.
00:24 The cars were submerged.
00:27 Another car was also swept away by the flood.
00:30 The OFW, Vincent, said that many people were stranded in train stations
00:35 and their homes were flooded.
00:38 The lower parts of Dubai are very difficult to live in.
00:42 Especially the lower areas.
00:46 Many cars were submerged.
00:50 The problem is that some OFWs are returning to work.
00:54 There is still water inside the establishments, like this restaurant.
00:58 The flood-stricken area in Dubai International Airport is also felt.
01:03 There are still flights that were delayed or canceled.
01:06 The rain and flood have subsided, but there are still parts that have water, around 650,000 OFWs.
01:17 But in terms of the affected, relief goods distribution is still underway.
01:26 Experts believe that the lack of drainage infrastructure in Dubai, which is in the middle of the desert,
01:34 may have caused the flooding.
01:36 In the middle of the difficult time, three OFWs were counted among those who were affected.
01:42 Dante Cacipong was among those who were injured when his car fell into a sinkhole.
01:49 The shuttle service of Jenny Gamboa and Marjorie Saking also fell into the sinkhole and they were suffocated.
01:57 As soon as we get clearance on the necessary documentation and requirements, we will immediately fly them.
02:07 The OFWs are ready to repatriate those who want to return home, but no one is saying if they want to return to the Philippines.
