00:00Not only white, but also other garbage was left by the flood in some parts of Rizal.
00:07Maris Umayni is live. Maris?
00:14Mel, there's no more rain in the whole afternoon here in the province of Rizal,
00:18that's why the flood is slowly increasing.
00:21It reached up to Bewang Antaas in the aftermath of Hurricane Christine.
00:26But their big problem now, as you mentioned Mel,
00:29is the amount of garbage and white that was left by the flood.
00:34Look at the water here, it's terrible.
00:37This is how strong the water from the Pililya River is,
00:41that flooded M.L. Quezon Street in Barangay Hulo last night,
00:45due to heavy rainfall.
00:47In the middle of it, the barangay even conducted rescue operations
00:51to evacuate those in a dangerous area.
00:54It's a good thing that the rain didn't continue yesterday,
00:57because earlier, the flood washed away the residents.
01:01They needed to clean up the thick white.
01:04Here in the province of Rizal, particularly in Kayumangui Street,
01:08it took longer for the flood to disappear.
01:11Even though the water was washed away from Bewang Antaas last night,
01:15the residents were still afraid, especially next to the creek,
01:19where the water didn't go down until yesterday.
01:22Of course, we were very nervous,
01:25because we thought it would still be like a flood,
01:28because the rain wouldn't stop.
01:30When it came up next to our house,
01:32when the rain was that strong, it disappeared right away.
01:36But now, it's like it's been down there for a long time.
01:40We don't go down because it's dangerous.
01:43It's scary.
01:45We had a fatality here before,
01:48but our neighbor was saved.
01:52They say cleaning is difficult,
01:54especially when it comes to the trash that was brought by the flood.
01:57Now, our problem is the trash.
02:01Cleaning doesn't help us.
02:04They get angry when you step on the trash.
02:08You don't get it if you don't go there personally.
02:13Of course, ma'am, our health is bad.
02:17There, behind me, I can smell the water.
02:20It's trash, ma'am.
02:22Wherever you turn,
02:24you can see residents sweeping water and trash.
02:31Until now, they still have a problem
02:34with how to sweep all the trash here,
02:37especially here on the side of the creek.
02:39But until now, they don't take their things down.
02:43Especially now that there is a change in the bad weather
02:46that is expected for the next few days
02:49that will enter our Philippine area of responsibility.
02:52Mel, thank you very much.
02:54Please come again.
