Save San Roque Alliance / MANILA BULLETIN
At least three individuals living in Sitio San Roque interviewed by Save San Roque Alliance, a group fighting for the residents’ rights, said the foul odor can be smelled even inside their houses that some of their family members also suffered from vomittting and stomach aches.
“Anim na kaming nagkakasakit dito. ‘Yung una akala namin normal lang, di namin inaasahan na galing dito yung amoy nya (Six of us here already got sick. At first, we thought it was just normal. We did not expect that the smell came from the leak),” Alma Esteban, community leader of Area J, said.
