00:00The LGUs are now alerted to the possible effects of the Christine storm in the country.
00:05Based on the data, the most affected areas are in the 30-million population.
00:12While in 8,000 barangays, it is possible to drown in the flood.
00:16Clayzel Pardilla is in the center of the news, live.
00:19Clayzel.
00:22Yes, Joshua, the DILG announced that the local governments are now ready
00:27and the agency is alerted to the possible adverse effects of the Christine storm.
00:33This is in accordance with the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.
00:37in a sectoral meeting in Malacanang earlier.
00:44In front of the Christine storm, the government is now ready
00:49with evacuation sites and possible sleeping places.
00:53DILG Secretary John V. Cremulia recommended to the local governments
00:59to suspend classes in all levels throughout Luzon today until tomorrow, October 23.
01:07The most affected areas are in the 30-million population.
01:12While in 18,000 barangays, it is possible to drown in the flood
01:17and experience the earthquake.
01:21All units have been mobilized.
01:23All local government units have been informed.
01:26All local government units, all civil defense units have been alerted
01:30and I think we're prepared.
01:34In accordance with the upcoming holiday season,
01:37DILG will double the presence of the police in public and in public places.
01:46We've instructed the PNP to double their presence,
01:50especially in the malls, in the public sector transportation,
01:55and in the LRT and MRT, where snatching of bags is a trend.
02:04Joshua, in the second sectoral meeting, President Marcos, Jr. also emphasized
02:09that the holiday season will be peaceful next year.
02:13That's why DILG is targeting the 38 hotspot areas
02:19or high incidence of crime related to the election.
02:2428 of them are from the more autonomous region and Muslim Mindanao.
02:30The agency will ensure that the election will be safe and fair.
02:36Meanwhile, the PNP is also pushing for reforms.
02:41Remulia is pushing for the reduction of the number of top-heavy officials,
02:45such as the generals, which is currently 133.
02:50She wants to make it 25 so that the police will be more efficient.
03:00It's very accepting.
03:03The reforms are recommendatory four months from now.
03:08We're working together with the UP College of Public Administration
03:12to get the complete details on how we can reform,
03:17especially the structure, because the PNP is very top-heavy now.
03:25Joshua, according to Secretary Remulia,
03:28there are many generals who have no authority under them,
03:33that's why the agency needs to reduce the priority of DILG.
03:39Joshua?
03:41Yes, Grazel, you mentioned the reduction of the number of top-heavy officials in the PNP.
03:46Aren't you worried that it will lead to demoralization in the ranks of the generals?
03:54Joshua, Secretary Remulia is clear that it doesn't mean that they will be demoted.
04:02They can wait for their retirement.
04:05Secretary Remulia believes that the police will not be demoralized
04:11because, as she said, they are soldiers, they follow orders.
04:15Again, this is just a recommendation.
04:19Joshua?
04:21Alright, thank you very much, Grazel Pardilla.
