00:21only 500,000 households have been affected by Hurricane Christine.
00:25They are now striving to restore electricity connection.
00:30In the Pagasinan, 168 out of 192 barangays have electricity supply.
00:38In Batangas, 76.2% while in Naga, 76% have been energized.

00:51The manual shutdown in the area is still underway.
00:55While in Albay, 62% of the household connections have been supplied with electricity.
01:0140 teams were sent to Albay and Dea to assist in the restoration efforts there.
01:09The Dea also said that the critical service establishments such as hospitals, evacuation centers, ports, and others have power lines.
01:21Safety will be an issue here, not unless and until the water is removed to make sure that the restoration of electricity is safe.
