00:00With regard to the eruption of Taal Volcano?
00:05Well, we...
00:07Okay, let me say.
00:09We have SOPs in place.
00:11We have standard procedures.
00:13Everybody, when the volcano erupts,
00:16or the storm comes,
00:18or magkalindol, or whatever,
00:21they know what to do.
00:23What we have to do is to monitor the situation
00:29and continue to see where are the areas.
00:32Because not every situation is the same.
00:35So, how do we adjust?
00:37Where are the areas that need special attention?
00:39Where are the areas that are okay?
00:43So, that's what we're doing now.
00:45But again, that's part of the SOP.
00:48The people that we have there know what to do.
00:52That's why I put them there.
00:54So, we just monitor the situation.
00:57As soon as possible.
00:58Basta makapasok.
00:59Where does it...
01:01Basta makapasok.
01:02Right now, field box is saying,
01:04wag muna nating alalahanin masyado.
01:06But I'm sure they will play it safe.
01:08Pag kakailangan, we will have to move people out of the danger area.
01:11Like we always do.
01:13So, that's what we are monitoring.
