00:00As a Bulaqueño, of course, I won't be the last one to ride.
00:10Let's try and ride Ticling.
00:16It looks like it's flooded.
00:18It's flooded inside.
00:20What can I ride to get there?
00:24Oh, this is the guy.
00:26This is the guy.
00:28Why is it called Ticling?
00:30Because it's high.
00:32Because it's a high-rise tricycle.
00:34Okay, all right.
00:36Let's go.
00:38That's why
00:40the company Toda
00:42in 2020
00:44came up with a temporary solution.
00:46The Ticling.
00:48It's like a bird.
00:50It has long wings
00:52and can float on water.
00:54The normal tricycle
00:56is a bit high.
00:58Let's go.
01:00Get on the Santa Cruz and Pascua.
01:02Okay, brothers and sisters.
01:04Let's get on the Ticling
01:06so we can experience
01:08a picture.
01:10But get on the Ticling.
01:14Okay, we have a passenger.
01:16We're going to ride with Justin.
01:18How does it work?
01:26Let's go.
01:30Wanderers,
01:32we're walking with Justin.
01:34We're going to the location
01:36where we're going to take him.
01:38Where is this, brother?
01:40Hagunoy.
01:42Yes, in Hagunoy, Bulacan.
01:44This is my countrymen.
01:46He has a beautiful tricycle.
01:50Actually,
01:52this is my first time experiencing this.
01:54Because it always rains here
01:56in Hagunoy, Bulacan,
01:58that's why you provide
02:00this kind of high vehicle, right?
02:02Yes.
02:04If there's no Ticling,
02:06no passengers can enter.
02:10Rain or shine,
02:12in Hagunoy, Bulacan,
02:14the water is definitely high.
02:18Aside from the high tide,
02:20another reason
02:22is the rapid flood of land
02:24or land subsidence
02:26which is a natural phenomenon.
02:30There it is.
02:32Let's go inside, brother.
02:34But when it rains,
02:38I'm really speechless.
02:42I'm speechless.
02:46And the residents are used to it.
02:48But for the people
02:50who live here,
02:52like the tricycle drivers,
02:54the high tide
02:56is a big perversion
02:58to them.
03:02Some of the Ticling drivers
03:04that we met,
03:06Father Jenny and Justin,
03:08were also among the first
03:10to ride a Ticling in the area.
03:14Justin grew up
03:16in a job like this.
03:18This was the livelihood
03:20of his father
03:22until they graduated.
03:24In 2023,
03:26Justin worked as a seaman.
03:28But unfortunately,
03:30he couldn't get a high salary.
03:34Because instead of an international
03:36local vessel,
03:38he got a ship.
03:40So in his return,
03:42he rode a Ticling
03:44for the first time.
03:48It's okay.
03:50The Ticling depends on the passengers
03:52if they can ride it or not.
03:54Sometimes, it's double.
03:56Sometimes, if I have money,
03:58I can earn up to a thousand.
04:04In Ticling,
04:06the income is double compared to a tricycle.
04:08But it also doubles
04:10if it doesn't rain.
04:12Father Jenny's income
04:14is also like that.
04:16If it rains,
04:18our income here is better.
04:20If it rains, it's not good.
04:22More than half of what I earn
04:24is lost.
04:26Father Jenny
04:28rides a Ticling
04:30for his children.
04:36If we don't go out,
04:38nothing.
04:40And even if there's a Ticling,
04:42the residents here
04:44still feel that
04:46the flood can be solved.
05:06The Filipinos are super innovative
05:08when it comes to discarding.
05:10Our vehicles
05:12are made by us.
05:14From the wheels, to the roof,
05:16to the floor.
05:18We can maximize it.
05:20Even if there are only a few vehicles,
05:22we can find a way.
05:24We earn here.
05:26We should take care of it.
05:30You know,
05:32the Ticling is a big help
05:34for the people
05:36who want to go
05:38to work,
05:40to school,
05:42to school.
05:54I hope you're here.
05:56We're doing an adventure.
