OCD Chief Issues Urgent Directives for Immediate Tsunami Preparedness in Regions I, II, and III Following Earthquakes Off Ilocos Sur
In light of the need to ensure readiness for potential tsunamis resulting from the series of earthquakes offshore of Ilocos Sur, USEC Ariel Nepomuceno, Executive Director of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), emphasized the critical importance of immediate action.
“Regional Directors 1, 2, and 3, please work closely and urgently with your partner NGAs and LGUs, especially the DILG,” he urged. “Check preparations for earthquakes, with a possible tsunami resulting from the movement of the Manila Trench. Delve into the details as discussed in the Inter-Agency Coordinating Cell meeting. I understand that your areas are not as prepared as we desire, but we must remedy this situation now.”
