00:00Meanwhile, the vendors on the route of the translation of the whole Jesus Nazareno for the security of the devotees were moved to a different place.
00:07But a few days before the feast, some devotees went to Quiapo to avoid the crowd.
00:13From Quiapo in Manila, this is Katrina.
00:17Katrina?
00:19Ivan, the authorities and the committee of the feast of the whole Jesus Nazareno for the translation 2025 are ready.
00:29The 80-year-old vendor, Sally Paz, just now went to Quiapo to pray for the whole Jesus Nazareno.
00:41In the past three decades, she has always been part of the translation.
00:46But not this year, because last year she was stuck in a procession.
00:51I couldn't move, and I was dizzy, so I took a nap.
00:57In the procession, not now.
00:59Some devotees also went today to avoid the crowd on the day of the feast.
01:05Yes, I took a nap because it's tight, so I can't add to the crowd because there are a lot.
01:14But there are others who will not miss the feast of Jesus Nazareno, which is a big part of their lives.
01:23I have a request from my son, and I have one thing that I really want, that I hope I will be saved.
01:32Every year, we really go to the worship service because of the many requests we received, we really gave everything.
01:38This year, more than 6 million devotees are expected to be alone in the procession.
01:44That is why it is really tight security.
01:47We are reminded that we will have a tight security in the search of their belongings.
01:55That is why we always remind, if we want to enter the church faster,
02:00if we don't need to bring bags, don't bring them.
02:04Because if we have a bag, we will still undergo the scanning process.
02:09The Church Of Christ of Capo is also talking to the devotees on the route of translation not to miss the procession.
02:15They also said not to bring a large replica because it will slow down the procession.
02:20And because it is expected to rain, they will allow wearing thin coats.
02:25Shopping on the route of translation is also prohibited.
02:30Our vendors who sell fishballs, because it is stuck.
02:34Most of the time, it will injure them, their feet.
02:40Secondly, we strictly prohibit the sale of broken bottles because once it falls, it will scratch the road,
02:48and the devotees we touch will be injured.
02:52This is understood by those who sell fishballs here.
02:56That is why they have a place for temporary transportation.
03:00We are given a place.
03:02We are on the other way so that we will not be caught by many people.
03:07The Church Of Christ of Capo is now reminding those who want to worship on the road.
03:12This year, worshiping on the road is still prohibited
03:17because we want to see the beloved Jesus of Nazareth of all people.
03:23It is said that the procession was strengthened.
03:26Before, it was closed on the knocking part of the procession.
03:29Now, it is open when there are more people in the whole.
03:34As for the Red Cross, their volunteers are deploying full force on the road.
03:39There are also 17 first aid stations that will be built on the strategic points of the route of translation.
03:46There are also ambulances on standby.
03:52Ivan, the Church Of Christ Of Capo is reminding that when you go here,
03:56it is better if you are already full or you have already eaten,
03:59that you are not dizzy now.
04:01Prepare your heart and soul so that you can now worship the beloved Jesus of Nazareth.
04:08The Kissing Of The Image will start on January 7, Tuesday.
04:13And what is the latest from here? Back to you, Ivan.
04:16Katrina, aside from moving vendors on the route of translation,
04:20did the local government also go around to ensure,
04:23for example, the manholes, maybe there are those left without a cover,
04:26or what are the obstacles for the devotees there?
04:34In the initial information given to us, Ivan,
04:37the DPWH is already going around to check the manholes
04:41because it is dangerous for the procession.
04:43Tomorrow, according to the initial information given to us,
04:46the PNP will go around the area.
04:50Thank you very much, Katrina Son.
