00:00In the time of the typhoon and tsunami,
00:03we were struck by a typhoon that was as big as a pinch.
00:09And in Tondo,
00:11some of our fellow countrymen were burned by the typhoon.
00:16But Profy,
00:18how should we be prepared
00:21for this kind of danger?
00:22Well, Audrey,
00:23that's what we'll find out from our guest,
00:25Sir J. Lord Abregado,
00:27the Manager of Safety Services of the Philippine Red Cross.
00:30Good morning, Sir J. Lord,
00:32and welcome to Rise and Shine in the Philippines.
00:33Good morning, Sir.
00:34Good morning to all of you,
00:35and good morning to all the viewers.
00:37Well, every year,
00:39typhoons come to us.
00:41Every day,
00:42we witness disasters in the country.
00:46What should an individual do
00:49to be ready for this type of incident?
00:53Actually, the Philippines is number one
00:57when it comes to disasters.
00:59Because here in the Philippines,
01:01we really experience all kinds of disasters.
01:04Typhoons, typhoons,
01:05even man-made disasters,
01:07conflicts, and things like that.
01:10So, it's really important
01:12that we are prepared for these kinds of incidents
01:16or disasters that we anticipate.
01:18That's why it's important
01:19that we have what we call a go-bag.
01:22There.
01:23That's what we should do first
01:25to be ready.
01:26Is this yours, Sir?
01:27Yes.
01:28This is a go-bag, right?
01:29This is actually what we call a go-bag.
01:31So, a go-bag is a 72-hour survival kit
01:36for the whole family.
01:38So, it's important
01:39that the needs of our family
01:42are included in our go-bag.
01:45That's why it has different components
01:48in our go-bag.
01:50Like this,
01:51this is a first aid kit.
01:52So, if someone is injured,
01:55or if someone has a broken bone,
01:57this is what we can use.
02:00We also have water.
02:03There.
02:04Let's show them.
02:05Let's show them what Sir J. Lord is teaching.
02:08These are water containers.
02:10This is actually a collapsible water container.
02:13Okay.
02:14So, it's more compact.
02:15So, it's important
02:16that we provide clean water to our family.
02:22There.
02:23So, they put their mineral water here.
02:25Yes.
02:26Because in a disaster,
02:28for one person,
02:29we should have three liters
02:32for one day.
02:33So, one liter for hygiene,
02:35for toothbrush,
02:36for drinking,
02:37like that.
02:38And the other two,
02:39this is what we use for
02:41drinking,
02:42for washing dishes,
02:44like that.
02:45So, it should be three liters per person,
02:49per day.
02:50Okay.
02:51I saw some pertinent documents.
02:54Yes.
02:55We also need that.
02:56Yes.
02:57So, this is important.
02:58And it's important
02:59that it's in a sealed plastic container.
03:02Okay.
03:03Then, store the pertinent documents
03:05such as title of land,
03:06birth certificate,
03:08bank notes,
03:09bank passbook,
03:10ATM,
03:11like that.
03:12It's just a love letter
03:13that you love.
03:14Yes.
03:15Your treasure.
03:16Well, I remember when the earthquake hit.
03:18Yes.
03:19Because I'm a farmer,
03:20the flood was very high.
03:21Yes.
03:22The first thing I saved,
03:23actually,
03:24of course,
03:25my wallet,
03:26cell phone,
03:27and our documents.
03:28There you go.
03:29Audrey is a traveler.
03:30No, you need that.
03:31It's very hard to walk
03:33with new ID cards.
03:34It's true.
03:35If it's lost.
03:36Yes.
03:37Title of land.
03:38Yes.
03:39It's very hard.
03:40So, you really need to save it.
03:41Aside from the documents,
03:42we also see other things
03:43that we can put in our bags.
03:44Right.
03:45This is important.
03:46These are survival gadgets.
03:48This is a flashlight.
03:49Okay, flashlight.
03:50And this is a kinetic flashlight.
03:51So, we're not dependent on batteries.
03:54But in case,
03:56let's bring an extra battery.
03:58Okay.
03:59And this is a transistor radio.
04:01Okay.
04:02So, it's important
04:03that we listen to the news.
04:04Yes.
04:05We can still know
04:06even if there's a disaster.
04:07Okay.
04:08And this is a whistle.
04:09A whistle.
04:10Yes.
04:11This is to get attention.
04:12Okay.
04:13So, they say,
04:14like in Titanic,
04:15they were saved
04:16because of the whistle.
04:17Yes, of the whistle.
04:19And this is an emergency light.
04:22Oh, okay.
04:23So, you can play with it
04:24and entertain yourself.
04:25Yes.
04:26Because, of course,
04:27you have anxiety.
04:28Okay.
04:29Signal lights.
04:30You just need to turn this off.
04:31It will illuminate.
04:32And there.
04:33We can get attention.
04:34There.
04:35And there are other components.
04:36Here, we have food items.
04:38There.
04:39What's important in food items
04:40is easy open cans.
04:42Yes.
04:43And those that are easily prepared
04:44because we can't cook.
04:46In a bag,
04:47you can bring a can opener
04:48inside the bag, right?
04:49Yes.
04:50So, it's important
04:51to consider that.
04:53What about this?
04:54There are noodles.
04:55How do you cook it?
04:56There.
04:57Actually,
04:58this is just hot water.
05:00Instant noodles
05:01are our advisable.
05:02So, it's just hot water.
05:03It can be cooked.
05:04We don't need to boil it.
05:06Okay.
05:07I saw that there's a candle.
05:08There.
05:09So, the candle
05:10is for lighting.
05:11Of course,
05:12we need phosphor.
05:13Trash bags.
05:14It's also important
05:15so that
05:16it's not just
05:17for trash.
05:18We can use it
05:19as a trap,
05:20temporary shelter,
05:21and so on.
05:22It's also important
05:23for blankets,
05:24thermal blankets,
05:25and of course,
05:26extra clothing.
05:27I saw that
05:28there's a plate
05:29and a glass.
05:30Yes.
05:31So, those utensils
05:32that our family
05:33will eat.
05:34It's important
05:35that it's reusable
05:36so that
05:37we can use it
05:38over and over again
05:39because
05:40in a disaster,
05:41these are the equipments
05:42that can be used
05:43but can't be provided
05:44immediately
05:45when we need
05:46to save money.
05:47If we can save money,
05:48we should also have
05:49a power bank.
05:50Yes.
05:51Again,
05:52it's also important
05:53to personalize
05:54our Go-Bag.
05:55So, this Go-Bag,
05:56where should it be
05:57placed?
05:58Inside our house
05:59or in the car?
06:00It can be placed
06:01in the car
06:02or inside the house.
06:03What's important here
06:04is that
06:05the whole family
06:06should plan
06:07for the disaster.
06:08It's important
06:09that we have
06:10a disaster plan
06:11so that
06:12we can save money.
06:13It's important
06:14that we have
06:15a disaster plan.
06:16Number one,
06:17where should
06:18the Go-Bag be placed?
06:19Number two,
06:20where can we
06:21meet
06:22when
06:23there is
06:24no communication,
06:25the roads are damaged,
06:26there is no transportation?
06:27Where can we
06:28meet?
06:29If that fails,
06:30where is the second place?
06:31It can be
06:32with uncle
06:33or auntie.
06:34What if
06:35our whole community
06:36can't meet?
06:37Where can we
06:38meet?
06:39We should really
06:40go out of town.
06:41So if
06:42the whole town
06:43is damaged,
06:44we can meet
06:45with grandma
06:46who lives
06:47in a nearby town.
06:48So even if
06:49we don't have
06:50communication,
06:51we know
06:52where our
06:53family is.
06:54So in case
06:55there is a fire
06:56or a storm,
06:57you should
06:58get your Go-Bag.
06:59Yes.
07:00That's why
07:01it's called
07:02Go-Bag.
07:03It's really
07:04on the go.
07:05It's not
07:06separate.
07:07It's compact.
07:08It has all
07:09our needs.
07:10We should still
07:11be careful
07:12so that
07:13other accidents
07:14won't happen
07:15unless it's
07:16a disaster
07:17like a typhoon.
07:18How about
07:19the bag?
07:20Should it
07:21not get wet?
07:22At least
07:23it's water
07:24resistant
07:25or water
07:26repellent.
07:27That's also
07:28important.
07:29We also
07:30advise
07:31Red Cross
07:32not because
07:33we're from
07:34Red Cross,
07:35it should have
07:36striking colors.
07:37In this case,
07:38color red.
07:39We should
07:40be careful
07:41so that
07:42we won't
07:43notice
07:44other things.
07:45It should be
07:46visible.
07:47It's like
07:48a toy.
