00:00Isabella did not receive any punishment because of the Tabagat and Hener typhoon.
00:04But despite this, several families were evacuated due to floods and landslides.
00:09That's what Benji Dorango reported live. Benji?
00:14You know, Dian, despite that, it's still good news because the province of Isabella
00:19was able to pass through the Hener typhoon.
00:22And they are very grateful
00:24because no one left a big punishment in their place.
00:29A while ago, in August, the Cagayan River
00:33crossed the overflow bridge between Tabagat and Santa Maria, Isabella.
00:38The water level rose in the river so the road was flooded.
00:42Because it was a dangerous week, cars could not pass through.
00:46This is just one example of the overflow bridge
00:49that was guarded by PDRRMO of Isabella.
00:52When it floods the river,
00:54the water level rises in the Cagayan River
00:57which alerts the rescue personnel.
01:01In Isabella, the Hener typhoon landfalled today.
01:0436 people were evacuated
01:07but they were immediately returned after the typhoon.
01:10There is no blame aside from the low agricultural value
01:14that is still known today.
01:16Aside from Region 2, Nueva Vizcaya is also affected
01:20because most residents were evacuated.
01:23One barangay in Ambagyo was affected,
01:26six barangays in Bambang,
01:28one barangay in Dupac del Norte,
01:31and four barangays in Solano.
01:33In total, more than 600 families were affected
01:36or more than 1,700 people.
01:39In Isabella, where the typhoon landfalled,
01:42only 8 families were evacuated
01:45in the coastal area of Maypalanan
01:48which is equivalent to 36 people.
01:50Because of this, the DSWD immediately moved
01:53to bring pre-positioned family food packs
01:56which are worth more than P300,000.
02:00Batanes, which is also affected by the typhoon,
02:03also brought relief goods.
02:07According to the PDRRMO of Isabella,
02:11their fellow countrymen can sleep peacefully tonight
02:16and they will take care of the safety of their residents.
02:22Thank you very much, Benji Dorango.
