00:00Meanwhile, the fluvial procession of the Sinulog Festival for the feast of Señor Santo Niño in Cebu was successfully and peacefully held.
00:08That is the center of the news of Jesse Atienza of PTV Cebu Live.
00:12Jesse.
00:15Yes Kenneth, according to the Philippine Coast Guard,
00:18the first fluvial procession was held in the sea of Cebu,
00:25which was carried by 300 sea vessels.
00:30This fluvial procession is the most important religious activity in the feast of Señor Santo Niño.
00:37This is confirmed by the first arrival of the flood in the year 1521.
00:46From the sea of Cebu, the number of sea vessels that joined the fluvial procession was seen.
00:51The image of a miraculous child was seen by the mother of the ship MV Santo Niño.
00:56It circled the Cebu Mactan Channel.
00:59On the way to the first part of the Pasil Fish Port,
01:04the devotees were very happy.
01:06They waved at the image.
01:08Here, some of the devotees joined the fluvial procession.
01:12They joined the image of Santo Niño of Barangay Suba,
01:17which is the place where their feast took place.
01:20This is where the joy began.
01:24The parade immediately followed,
01:26which passed through the house.
01:28Almost all of the residents went out.
01:31It was best to rest beside the devotee, Mrs. Betty,
01:35after feeling dizzy.
01:38Yes, earlier.
01:39Earlier, I was really dizzy.
01:41You were dizzy?
01:42Yes, I was really dizzy.
01:44According to the parish priest,
01:46they have a long tradition of joining the fluvial procession
01:49that is followed by parade and cultural activities in their parish.
01:54We are celebrating and here for how many years already
01:58that we always start our fiesta celebrations,
02:02novena celebrations,
02:03together with the big Basilica of Senor Santo Niño.
02:07It has been for so many years already.
02:09Actually, mostly, the people here are from Barangay Pasil,
02:13Barangay Suba,
02:15Barangay Sawang Kalero,
02:16and the nearby barangay is also here.
02:23If we can add,
02:24earlier in the latest update of the Philippine Coast Guard,
02:28a motor boat crashed into the sea
02:32and they are still investigating the cause of this incident.
02:37And luckily,
02:38according to them,
02:39no one was hurt
02:40and all the passengers of the motor boat were rescued and saved.
