00:00Whenever there's a storm and it rains,
00:02students and parents are often asked
00:05if there's an entrance or not.
00:07First, the government said that the LGUs
00:11can decide if there's an entrance or not
00:13in their buildings.
00:15But who should really decide about this?
00:18That's what Professor Antonio Contreras
00:21from Punto de Vista, Professor.
00:27Thank you very much and good morning, Diane.
00:30Every storm that comes to our country
00:34and there's a line to get through,
00:36it's true that if we're unlucky.
00:39And it's easy to ask,
00:41when should we suspend classes?
00:43It's clear that we need to be careful.
00:46We need to give a warning
00:49to the students, teachers, and parents
00:52when not to have classes.
00:57And according to the President,
00:59this decision is left to the local government officials
01:04who are aware of the conditions in their areas.
01:09What we should talk to our LGUs
01:13is to use science.
01:16Because the moment you begin declaring
01:19the suspension of classes,
01:21and there's no storm coming,
01:23or it's hot,
01:24people lose their trust.
01:27Or instead of taking the next declaration seriously,
01:32it's better not to do it.
01:34So, like now,
01:36there's a storm, Sinica,
01:38I'm here in Laguna.
01:40Forecasters clearly said
01:44that the signal number one
01:46is only in the eastern portion of Laguna,
01:49from Santa Cruz to Santa Maria.
01:52Our governor still declared
01:54that there will be no classes in the whole province,
01:58including those in Los Baños, Calamba, Binan.
02:01And that's what's happening in NCR.
02:04We know that.
02:06We know that in reality,
02:07we appreciate the caution.
02:10But when it becomes relying more on political expediency,
02:14because they might be trolled,
02:17scolded,
02:19their political popularity will be diminished,
02:22science will no longer be used.
02:24We also seem to be in danger there.
02:27We already have a chance
02:29to predict or forecast typhoons.
02:33Let us follow that.
02:34Let us consult with experts.
02:36Let us see if the storm is still far away,
02:40and they said that it will come in two days' time.
02:43Why would you declare that there will be no classes tomorrow
02:46if you will not be affected?
02:48Right?
02:49So, let us restore people's confidence in the storm.
02:53Let us restore people's confidence in the decision-making of officials.
02:57Let us use prudent consideration
03:00when we declare that there will be no classes.
03:04Because yesterday,
03:06they declared that there will be no classes,
03:08but it is very hot here in my province.
03:12Thank you very much.
03:13That's all for me for today.
03:15Back to you in the studio, Diane.
03:17Good morning.
03:18Thank you, Professor Antonio Contreras.
