00:00The floodwaters of Navotas and Malabon are getting worse.

00:05The floodgate that was blocking the water from Manila Bay was damaged.

00:10Here's Salima Rafran with the latest news.

00:15They are forcing us to enter.

00:19They are forcing us to enter.

00:20The gate is about to be destroyed.

00:23This barge was already banned but it still insisted on entering

00:27at the North Navotas Navigational Floodgate on June 7.

00:30The gate is about to be destroyed.

00:32They are forcing us to enter.

00:34Our guard already told us not to go back.

00:38They want us to enter.

00:40There.

00:42They are forcing us to enter.

00:43Because of the low tide, the barge fell into the floodgate.

00:47They had to run four times to get the barge out.

00:50But the floodgate was already destroyed.

00:52It couldn't be raised and remained open.

00:56This is important for Navotas and the neighboring city of Malabon.

01:01The gate is blocking the water from Manila Bay during high tide

01:05which can cause flooding in the low-lying barangays.

01:09Until now, there are several places with gutter flooding.

01:13In Mnaval, Asucena, and Sampaguita Streets in Navotas.

01:16General Luna in Malabon also had flooding.

01:20We don't have rain.

01:21If there's no rain, it will be more flooding.

01:22And if there's rain, we might drown.

01:25It was flooded during high tide.

01:29Now, it's flooded again because of the damaged flood control.

01:33The flood will come.

01:36Now, because of the high tide,

01:39we have a problem.

01:41The flood reached Tuhod, Hita, and Bahas Amin.

01:47And I can see, like today, two meters.

01:51It might reach Bewang.

01:53The Navgate is very important for Navotas and Malabon.

02:02So far, before this happened, we managed the flood.

02:09But if the Navgate is damaged,

02:13the water will enter.

02:17Whatever pumping we do,

02:20because the water passed through our dams,

02:24we can't do anything about it.

02:27The true size of the dam in the Navigational Gate can't be seen yet

02:31because it's not high enough under the water.

02:34But the MMDA will do something about it.

02:38We will help this through a crane

02:40to raise the Navigational Gate.

02:43The MMDA and local governments will help first

02:47and the Shipyard Association before doing this.

02:50The commitment of the Shipbuilders Association,

02:54our Shipyard Association in Metro Manila,

02:57is that whatever we can do to help,

03:00we will still help to solve

03:03the problem to make it easier or to make it last longer.

03:08The investigation of the damage to the floodgate will continue.

03:13The MMDA will also consult with the owner of the dam.

03:16We advised them that

03:19if the floodgate is raised to the yellow position

03:23and the damage is assessed,

03:25the DPWH can possibly send an assessment to them

03:29to compensate for the cost of repairing

03:36the damaged Navigational Gate.

03:40Plans are also being laid

03:43to make a better and climate-change-responsive floodgate.
