00:00The following day, 15 posts fell in Marilao, Bulacan, when a truck hit one of its posts.
00:07Two were injured, while hundreds lost power.
00:10Oscar Oida was hit.
00:16Yesterday, Meralco found the broken post here in Barangay Lambakin, Marilao, Bulacan.
00:23Last night, a broken 10-wheel dump truck was about to hit the posts on Mario Santiago Road.
00:32As the truck was driving, 15 posts fell on the ground.
00:3810 of these were Meralco's posts.
00:41A motorcycle rider was injured, while a cyclist was injured by a broken post.
00:46They were immediately taken to the hospital.
00:49I was hit by a wire.
00:51I fell down.
00:54I thought I was done.
00:56I asked the owner of the truck.
01:00He told me to just pay for my day, because I can rest for a few days.
01:05The post fell on its own, and its effect on the supply and community.
01:12Meralco hasn't told us its importance yet.
01:16The price of one post is only P15,000 to P20,000.
01:21But it's just a post with a lever and attachments.
01:25And the opportunity loss of this post.
01:29That's what I see as the possible charges.
01:35The driver of the truck refused to face the camera when we asked for permission.
01:39Up to 800 families lost power.
01:43According to Meralco, the number of broken posts is not a joke.
01:48But their target is to finish their work before midnight.
01:53As long as it's possible, as long as it's bright.
01:55So that we won't have a hard time with the restoration.
01:58But if it gets dark, as long as it's today.
02:02As long as it's this day, that's our target.
02:04Before noon earlier, the electricity was returned to their house.
02:08But not in some places, like Carlos Miguel.
02:12There's no electricity.
02:14And it's already dark.
02:17That's why I can't sleep well.
02:18It's hot.
02:19Some even said that outside the house, there's smoke.
02:24To give you an idea of how hot it is here at night.
02:27Some residents made a makeshift bed for their cars.
02:33So that it's somehow fresh.
02:36Last night, we lost electricity.
02:38That's why we slept outside.
02:40We were still at home.
02:42We couldn't sleep so that we can play Pai Pai.
02:45The cars couldn't pass.
02:47That's why the students went inside.
02:51It's okay now because it's so hard.
02:54It's hard to go inside like this.
