00:00Negros Occidental is being studied in the State of Calamity
00:05due to the effect of the eruption of Volcan Canlaon last Monday.
00:09A mandatory evacuation is also being studied in Lawakan.
00:13This is Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV.
00:21The rainfall of Abu in Tumu's farms is now being solved by some farmers
00:25in La Carlota City, Negros Occidental.
00:28This is followed by the eruption of Volcan Canlaon last Monday.
00:38Residents are not safe.
00:41The smell of the dog is very bad.
00:44I am very nervous.
00:46I am afraid that if there is an emergency,
00:51we will be evacuated.
00:53In the town of La Castellana,
00:55more than 7,000 evacuees are staying in 11 evacuation centers.
00:59Ruchel has six children.
01:02Our situation is very bad.
01:07We have no children.
01:09Rebecca, who is 62 years old,
01:12has not yet recovered from the stroke.
01:14That's why she is asking her relatives to go and help her.
01:18My children are not safe.
01:22We have no place to go.
01:25I called them and they helped us.
01:28A water filtration system has been installed in the evacuation centers
01:32to ensure that the drinking water is clean.
01:34But the problem of the LGU is the shortage of food.
01:37Even the continuous supply of food to the evacuees.
01:40And they have other needs.
01:42The DSWD, the province, has food packs that we can repack.
01:47We need to give them vegetables or food.
01:51So that's the problem.
01:53And of course, mobility and transportation.
01:56The LGU is hoping that the evacuees inside the evacuation centers
02:01will last until Christmas.
02:05The activity of the volcano continues.
02:07According to PHIVOX,
02:0931 volcanic earthquakes were reported in the past 24 hours.
02:13The sulfur dioxide emission is also high,
02:16reaching 4,000 tons per day.
02:18PHIVOX has not yet estimated
02:20whether the volcano should be raised to Alert Level 4.
02:23Alert Level 4 means that the volcano will explode at any time.
02:27It is currently Alert Level 3
02:29and the mandatory evacuation will continue
02:31for 6 kilometers around the volcano.
02:34According to the Office of Civil Defense,
02:36more than 80,000 targets have been evacuated,
02:38but less than half have been evacuated.
02:40We have already evacuated 46% of that,
02:45or close to 39,258 persons,
02:49or 9,942 families.
02:52They are now inside the evacuation centers
02:56and outside, those who have already evacuated
02:59and are living with their families and other places.
03:02The scope of the mandatory evacuation is still being studied
03:06because the waves are also high when it rains.
03:09Tropical cyclone is expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility
03:14next week.
03:16When it comes to the worst case scenario,
03:19where the extended PDC is already 10 kilometers away,
03:23it will reach almost 139,000 individuals
03:29who need to be evacuated.
03:31So that will require additional evacuation centers,
03:35require additional food assistance.
03:38The DSWD assured that they are ready to serve all evacuees.
03:44The DOH has already sent medicines
03:47and 95 masks and nutrition commodities.
03:50The tourism department and tourism activities
03:54in La Castellana, La Carlota City,
03:56Baguas City and Murcia in Negros Occidental
03:59and in Canaon City, Negros Oriental have also been suspended.
