00:00 While discussing the budget of the Department of Science and Technology,
00:06 some issues are being raised regarding the environment,
00:09 such as the stoppage of the tsunami
00:12 and the more effective release of the forecast in the current situation.
00:17 That is what Daniel Banalastas has to say.
00:19 The tsunami was a strong one.
00:23 It was the one that led to the Senate's hearing on the budget of the Department of Science and Technology.
00:30 Senator Francis Tolentino is worried
00:32 that the coral reefs will be destroyed,
00:34 just like what happened to some of his estates in Palawan Kamakailan.
00:57 The DOST also said that the coral reefs or mangroves have more effect than the corals.
01:03 The construction of a weather station in the West Philippine Sea was also raised in the hearing,
01:19 which was presented by Senator Tolentino.
01:22 He said that hope will help.
01:25 Do you agree? The stations are discussing.
01:29 Will the stations in the West Philippine Sea help?
01:33 It will be useful actually, Senator, because
01:37 we're looking at not only the typhoons, but also the typhoons that bring strong rains.
01:45 If there's no one to guard, you should assign a captain.
01:49 If there's a captain in the area, you should look after him.
01:54 Especially if there's a typhoon.
01:57 Yes.
01:58 If there's a typhoon, there's a lot of typhoons.
02:00 The hearing also showed that the typhoon prediction is more accurate than expected
02:06 because it's part of the modernization program.
02:08 In fact, our typhoon prediction increased
02:13 comparatively with advanced centers.
02:18 How many of these Doppler radars do we need?
02:21 Right now, we have 19.
02:23 Daniel Mananastas, Parasabayan.
