SurSur DRRMO chief: Typhoon Yolanda leaves an
unforgettable lesson
By Greg Tataro Jr.
TANDAG CITY, Surigao del Sur, Nov. 4 (PIA) – Abel
de Guzman, executive officer of the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Office (PDRRMO) here said Typhoon Yolanda had indeed taught not only
Filipinos but the whole world in general life’s most unforgettable lesson.
He pointed out that because the country had been
so used to being hit by typhoons, strong and weak alike prior to Typhoon
Yolanda, the general public were not that so seriously concerned about
“disaster preparedness,” saying majority would only act during crunch time.
"Worse, most of us had been taking things for
granted," De Guzman, a former Red Cross chief in the province, added.
However, since Typhoon Yolanda had “mangled and
tangled” Tacloban City and neighboring areas in particular, everybody seemed to
have been awakened by what happened, De Guzman explained.
The PDRRMO chief said even if Surigao del Sur was
just slightly affected when Typhoon Yolanda made landfall in the eastern
Visayas region on November 8, 2013, response during disasters had started to
become much better—preparations had evolved to something different as compared
to the pre-Yolanda era, citing construction design, time of preparation,
warnings, and more.
“Not only that, right information dissemination had
been observed, enforced/preemptive evacuation carried out; there had been
contingency planning on top of preparations for ‘worst case scenario,’” De
Guzman remarked.
Moreover, he said that DRRMOs had been
institutionalized.
The traumatic experience brought about by Typhoon
Yolanda had made us realize that preparedness has always been key to survival
at all times, De Guzman stressed.
Meanwhile, since monsoon rains had started to
affect the province, he advised the general public to take the necessary precautions.
