00:00Retrieval and clearing operations are ongoing in areas affected by the quake in the province of Rizal.
00:07Five members of a family in Antipolo were found to have been affected by the flood this Monday.
00:14Here is my first report.
00:20These rescuers are helping in the city of Upper Banaba, Barangay San Luis, Antipolo
00:25in the flooding.
00:27Not only the house of the Negro family, but five members of the family were also affected.
00:31It was only 10 minutes before the quake hit.
00:34Suddenly, there was a flood.
00:36Then, it was gone.
00:38It was gone.
00:39If there is a quake tomorrow, we will not have a house.
00:43We will not have a house.
00:45We will just stay on the ground.
00:46If there is a big quake, we will just stay on the ground.
00:50The dead were found in the river Salawaan.
00:53The mother of one-year-old nephew, Ia, Roan.
00:57And the mother of Roan, Catherine.
00:59Three more were found.
01:01Ia's mother, Bernadette.
01:03Ray Ondes' daughter-in-law.
01:05And Joss Ritt, eight-year-old nephew.
01:09One of their nephews was found under a bridge.
01:13According to the rescuers, the family confirmed that the body was in one of their relatives.
01:19The rescue operation was not easy, especially when it was raining heavily.
01:22The ground turned white.
01:24That's why it was difficult to move around on the big rocks
01:27to find out if someone was trapped underneath.
01:30The road was difficult.
01:32The road was very stiff.
01:34We estimated that it was 75 to 80 meters from ground zero to there.
01:43In fact, the child, the one-year-old nephew, was found here.
01:49If you remove those parts of the rocks, there's a smell.
01:52The smell earlier, we couldn't determine if it was a human or a dead animal.
01:57Even though we had a small chance that it was there,
02:00we still had to be sure.
02:02If the rain continues, we will stop.
02:05We will stop.
02:07Because we cannot gamble the lives of our rescuers.
02:14Actually, these two days were tiring.
02:17But they were able to understand the feelings of the victims.
02:26In Barangay Hulo in the town of Pililia,
02:28the family continued to give.
02:30In the storehouse of Pililia River,
02:33the family also built a kitchen and bathroom.
02:36It was good that the whole family was able to go out
02:38before their house caught fire.
02:40It was very scary.
02:42It's been a long time.
02:44It's been days, not nights.
02:47If we were here, our whole family would be gone.
02:50We are thankful to God for what He has done.
02:53Our family is still whole.
02:55Broken walls and broken windows
02:57are the only way to escape the hardship of living.
03:00In this area, three houses were destroyed,
03:03including the one in front of them.
03:05In some places in Pililia, Rizal,
03:08the neighbors helped in rescuing the residents
03:11who were trapped in the floodwaters.
03:15SK Kagawa Joshua Sanggalang also helped
03:18in rescuing the neighbors in Sitio Sala Mabuluhan.
03:21Even though they were the ones
03:23who destroyed the whole house in the river.
03:26Our house was destroyed.
03:29It slowly fell down.
03:31It really hurts.
03:33It's like you're being hit.
03:36We slowly put it down.
03:39That's what happened.
03:41It was destroyed.
03:43Our business is inside the river.
03:47The water in the barangay is very high.
03:49My God, our house is flooded.
03:53When it was flooding,
03:55the water left a deep and white stain.
03:57They had to use a payloader
03:59to clean it.
04:02Because of the flooding,
04:04the barangay workers are now
04:06cleaning the house.
04:08This store is full of motorcycles
04:10that are being repaired
04:12after the flood.
04:14The store was also flooded.
04:16The water level is very high.
04:18It's flooding.
04:20One of the first places
04:22to be flooded
04:24is the Imelda Avenue in San Andres
04:26where the nearby subdivisions are located.
04:28There are a lot of stranded.
04:30These are the stranded
04:32in the village east.
04:38That's PWD.
04:40That's the child.
04:42What happened to the other children?
04:44The mother is worried.
04:46According to the local government of Cainta,
04:48the situation is dire
04:50when some subdivisions
04:52were able to get water
04:54from the Antipolo River.
04:56That's why the water level
04:59is rising in many places in Cainta.
05:01Residents are now
05:03worried about cleaning the house.
05:05According to Jerry,
05:07the flood they are experiencing
05:09is just the tip of the iceberg
05:11when they first lived here in the 1980s.
05:13But as time goes by,
05:15the flood problem is getting worse.
05:17The water has already entered our house.
05:19How high is it?
05:21That wall?
05:23Up to your ears.
05:25Yes.
05:27How do you discard it?
05:29We put it up.
05:31Then we just
05:33raised our stove
05:35so that we can cook.
05:37According to the municipality,
05:39all 7 barangays of Cainta are flooded.
05:41We receive water
05:43from the mountains and other towns
05:45that cross our creeks.
05:47At the same time, we receive water
05:49from the sky.
05:51So the volume is really high.
05:53The municipality is now working
05:56to fund the construction
05:58of pumping stations.
06:00They are also worried
06:02about the national government.
06:04This is the first news.
