NANAWAGAN ang National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) sa publiko na lumahok sa lahat ng earthquake drills na naglalayong bawasan ang casualties lalo pa’t walang paraan mahulaan kung kailan mangyayari ang lindol.
“We call on everyone to join the drill once again as part of our effort to reinforce earthquake preparedness. Earthquakes can happen anytime without warning and sometimes they can be as devastating as what happened in Türkiye,” ayon kay NDRRMC executive director Undersecretary Ariel Nepomuceno.
Isinagawa ng NDRRMC ang first quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED), kahapon ng alas-2 ng hapon.
Si Nepomuceno, isa ring administrator ng Office of Civil Defense (OCD) ay nagpahayag na mahalaga ang paghahanda para bawasan ang casualties dahilan ng malakas na lindol.
“Preparedness always matters. Let us work together to reduce the possible impacts of earthquakes. We hope for the widest participation in the upcoming drill,” dagdag na wika nito.
Ang main ceremonial na pipindot at magdidiin sa button na pangungunahan ng NDRRMC officials ay ginanap sa Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City at nakatuon sa magnitude 7.2 earthquake scenario.
Sinundan ito ng functional exercise ng NDRRMC members. (CHRISTIAN DALE)
