The 26-year-old resident said he immediately grabbed a face mask and a wet towel, but even those did not give him and his family protection from the foul smell.
“Yung asawa ko po, ginising nya ako… Maya maya po naglalabasan na po mga tao, nag-iiyakan na po… dahil sa amoy na hindi makatao. Pag ano, manghihina ka eh (My wife awakened me from sleep. I already saw people running outside and crying… because of the ‘inhumane’ smell. You’d really feel weak when you inhale it),” he told the Manila Bulletin in an interview.
