00:00It's too early for some passengers who are still waiting to board the Batangasport.
00:05The question is, will they reach their destination on Christmas?
00:08Let's check it out live on Marisol Aguraban's show, Marisol.
00:16Emil, our fellow countrymen finally reached their destination on Batangasport.
00:21They are now on their way back to their province.
00:25But it seems like some of them are still waiting because they've been waiting for a long time.
00:37This is the current situation inside the passenger terminal in Batangasport.
00:41It's far from the situation yesterday where the passengers were crowded.
00:46Sir Erwin, who was stranded yesterday, was the only one who was able to enter the terminal.
00:50Last year, nothing like this happened.
00:53After 10 years, this is the first time I've experienced something like this.
00:57It's a bit disappointing for me.
01:00But the port is very nice.
01:02But yesterday, it was full. We didn't have a place to stay last night.
01:05After 24 hours, he was finally able to travel to Rojas, Mindoro.
01:10Thank God, we were still able to reach our destination.
01:13The other passengers were also happy.
01:16You're boarding now, right? So, how are you?
01:19I'm fine. Excited.
01:21Sheryl, on the other hand, is mixed with sadness and sadness.
01:25Why are you sad?
01:27Because we have a father.
01:31You have a father?
01:33Yes.
01:34Is your father still happy?
01:35Yes.
01:36Why?
01:37Because he can travel.
01:41But it's not just the passengers who are happy.
01:43This sister is happy that she was able to come to Batangasport for their reunion in Lipa.
01:50We are just two siblings, that's why we were able to reunite there.
01:54As of 2 p.m., more than 10,000 passengers were able to reach the port.
02:00Last night, we were able to reach 20,000.
02:05But the ones who were able to get a ride were only able to reach Calvario.
02:08Michael Hernandez, who was able to get a ride at 2 p.m. last Sunday,
02:12was able to get a ride at 11 p.m.
02:15I'm crying. I'm tired.
02:18Jose Espera, who was able to get a ride for 16 hours, is now saving up for a biscuit.
02:23I'm hungry. There's nothing to eat.
02:25Of course, if you left your car, you'll have to go to someone else's.
02:29They've been going home every year, but this is the first time they've experienced something like this in Calvario.
02:33Last Sunday afternoon, the situation was still the same.
02:37This is not a parking lot.
02:39This is the line of cars that are allowed to enter Batangasport.
02:42Batangasport is expecting more passengers this Christmas,
02:46but they are not sure that this is how many private cars will be allowed to enter.
02:52This is also our first time.
02:54It's been a long time.
02:55So what happened?
02:56There's a lot of people.
02:58Like I said, our fellow countrymen have a lot of money.
03:01Before, there was a little increase in the number of passengers.
03:04Definitely, there was a shortage because of the volume that arrived.
03:08Now, there's a shortage of cars.
03:12Batangasport, Batangasport
03:16Here at the passenger terminal, Emil,
03:18there are still a few of our fellow countrymen who are waiting for the Nechubena tonight.
03:23But Emil, we can't show it to you,
03:25but in the line, there are still a lot of cars that are hoping to get to Roro
03:31so that they can travel tonight.
03:34In total, today, more than 11,600 passengers have left Batangasport.
03:42There are more than 1,300 cars in Roro, Emil.
03:47Thank you very much, Marisol Abdurrahman.
