00:00Joshua, here in Manila, not only is it raining, but there's also a strong wind that brought the storm Enteng.
00:06That's why there are some houses in Baseco Compound in Toto, Manila, that were hit by a strong storm from Manila Bay.
00:16Ryan is still fresh on how their house was hit by the Karina storm last month.
00:22But now, it's just the beginning of September.
00:25They were hit by a new problem because their house was hit by the storm Enteng.
00:31But there's another problem for him.
00:34Because his wife just gave birth to a baby, the tragedy happened.
00:40There was a huge storm and a house fell.
00:44It hit us.
00:46There were some things that were saved, but there was nothing left.
00:50Not even a piece.
00:51I hope we can rebuild our house.
00:56Ryan is just one of the residents of Baseco Compound in Tondo, Manila,
01:00who were affected by the strong wind and storm brought by the storm Enteng and Habagat.
01:05Residents in the area say that there are already 30 houses hit by the strong storm.
01:11It started at 8 a.m.
01:14Another problem is that because of the strong storm,
01:17the barge that stopped the water from flowing in the bay didn't move.
01:21That's why some roads in Tondo are already flooded.
01:24Because of this, the barangay already carried out an evacuation for the affected families.
01:29But even though the LGU continues to remind us,
01:32there are still some residents in Baseco who don't want to leave their homes.
01:39We're used to it because it happens every year.
01:42We didn't evacuate because we're used to it.
01:47Our house is high, so we have to take care of it.
01:51It's hard to leave because there are still a lot of people here.
01:59Joshua, earlier we went to the evacuation center at H.J. Atienza Elementary School.
02:05It's near Baseco Compound.
02:07And we saw that there are 29 families who are still there.
02:12And they are giving help to the Manila LGU.
02:15For now, we're still confirming the number of houses that were affected in Baseco Compound.
02:21And we're also checking if the evacuation is still going on.
02:25But earlier, there are still people who are moving around the barangay.
02:29Meanwhile, Joshua, because of the strong wind here in Manila,
02:33earlier, there was also a storm that passed through Rojas Boulevard.
02:36But it was immediately stopped by the Metro Manila Development Authority or MMDA.
02:41And for now, just a little update, it's still raining here.
02:44But the strong wind that we felt earlier this morning is almost gone.
02:49Joshua.
02:50All right. Take care. Thank you very much, Luisa Erispe.
