00:00The province of Ilocos Norte is continuously on alert due to the effects of Hurricane Christine.
00:06Evacuation centers are also ready to bring in the residents who will be evacuated.
00:11This is Patrick De Jesus' live report. Patrick.
00:17Yes, the number 2 signal is high here in Ilocos Norte.
00:22That's why the different provinces in the region are alerted
00:27to the effects of Hurricane Christine, even here in Lawag City.
00:33Rainfall is also experienced in Ilocos Norte, as well as here in Lawag City.
00:38According to the LGU, the area of Lawag becomes a catch-base whenever it rains heavily,
00:45which results in flooding.
00:47All the water that flows out to our adjacent municipalities
00:56comes out here.
00:58That's why Lawag City is a catch-base.
01:01So, our number 1 hazard is flooding.
01:07That's why the province of Ilocos Norte is continuously on alert
01:10due to the effects of Hurricane Christine.
01:13Evacuation centers are also ready to bring in the residents who will be evacuated.
01:19Each family has its own room with a tidy bed and a clean bathroom.
01:26There is also a couple's room for spouses who want private time.
01:32Pre-positioned in the evacuation centers in Lawag are various relief packs
01:38that contain food and rice.
01:41Family kits, hygiene kits, and sleeping kits will also be distributed immediately.
01:47Lawag City is very far from the regional office.
01:51Although they have a warehouse here, we are 23 LGUs here in Ilocos Norte.
01:59And with this, having the kits here, right at the evacuation center,
02:06they can be immediately attended to.
02:09The supplies are ready for deployment whenever needed for evacuation.
02:15These are the rescue boats of the Ilocos Norte Provincial Government
02:20that will be used to respond to flood-hit areas in the province.
02:25Ferdinand E. Marcos Memorial Stadium serves as a staging area here in Lawag City
02:31for the rapid deployment of these rescue boats.
02:36The Office of Civil Defense, Ilocos Region, ordered all LGUs
02:42to carry out a pre-emptive evacuation in flood-prone and landslide-prone areas.
02:48And even if it's like a broken plate,
02:50residents will be reminded again and again to follow the authorities.
02:56We have seen what's happening in Vicolsa right now.
02:59The water is fast.
03:02Especially if the flood that is coming to us is from the mountains.
03:07It's easier to provide aid than to retrieve the boats.
03:13So as much as possible, we don't want to have any casualties or injuries.
03:20And let's remember that this flood is almost nationwide.
03:25We cannot ask for help right now.
03:28So we have to be by ourselves here in Region 1
03:32because of what is happening in Vicol and other areas.
03:38According to the OCD Region 1,
03:42in Bangarla Union and Bacara, Ilocos Norte,
03:45a pre-emptive evacuation has already been carried out.
03:48Here in Lawag, there are no heavy floods yet.
03:53And for now, we are only experiencing rain.
03:58But on the other hand, LGUs are alert here
04:03because of the expected effects of the flood.
04:08Ma'am.
04:10Thank you very much, Patrick DeJesus.
04:13Take care.
