00:00Some families have a problem with their loved ones who are buried in the Hagonoy Catholic Cemetery.
00:10Some of them drowned in the flood.
00:12Maris Umali is a witness.
00:18There's no rain, but the flooding in the Hagonoy Municipal Cemetery is not insignificant.
00:23It has been a problem for many years.
00:26The high tide came, and the time passed quickly.
00:30It didn't dry up.
00:32It was like that.
00:33It's a pity.
00:34They were really left behind.
00:35How?
00:36They drowned in the water.
00:37The flooding was a mess in the dirt and thick garbage.
00:41Not to mention, there are still less than 1,000 buried here.
00:45The flooding will reach up to 20 here in the cemetery.
00:50But while entering, the flood is deeper.
00:54And it's more dangerous for those who will visit.
00:57Because of the dire situation, many were left behind.
01:02But what about those who were left here?
01:05Especially when the high tide is approaching.
01:07It's a chance for them to visit again and pray.
01:12Like Federico, who has 10 dead buried in the Hagonoy Catholic Cemetery.
01:17We can't go there anymore.
01:19Every year.
01:21We are just helping in the house.
01:26In the house?
01:28Candles and pictures.
01:29If you put a picture, all the dead will be drowned.
01:33Flordeliza said that even if the cemetery is right in front of the house,
01:37it's better to transfer the dead bodies to a better cemetery.
01:42You can't reach the boots anymore.
01:44And it's broken.
01:45It's slippery.
01:46You will be discouraged.
01:47Instead of having an accident, you should wear boots.
01:50We already transferred my mother and my father.
01:54They are already there.
01:55To Rubin.
01:56In the near future, the flood will also sink the mausoleums in the Raymundo Memorial Cemetery.
02:01Because of the high tide, the buried are no longer visible in the middle of the cemetery.
02:06Ren Ocampo's family decided to visit the Hagonoy Catholic Cemetery
02:13so that they can properly pray and mourn the coming flood.
02:17The water is too high.
02:20It's hard to carry.
02:22It needs to be cremated so that it can be fixed.
02:28We are still trying to get the statement of the local government of Cagnay
02:32in their plan for these cemeteries.
02:34But they are not responding to our calls.
