00:00In addition to the supply of Family Food Packs, the government has also sent to Batanes

00:05a huge amount of Bagyong Leon.

00:08The Office of the Civil Defense also assured that the authorities will not let our countrymen

00:14be the victims of the Bagyong Christine.

00:16Patrick De Jesusa has the latest news.

00:22Due to the following Bagyong Christine and Super Typhoon Leon,

00:26the agriculture sector was also completely affected.

00:29According to the Department of Agriculture, more than P3 billion was allocated to agriculture

00:35and it is possible to increase even more once the assessment is completed.

00:39Despite this, the DA said that there is a sufficient food supply and the price of food is being monitored.

00:47As a help to the affected farmers and fishermen, the DA has allocated P1 billion in Quick Response Funds

00:54for the production input.

00:56It is possible to avail the Sure Loan of up to P25,000 for 3 years to pay and zero interest

01:03while there is also crop insurance.

01:06We also have livelihood programs that can provide help to our farmers.

01:13Meanwhile, the government agencies also assured the help to Batanes

01:18that more than 1,000 individuals were rescued due to the Bagyong Leon

01:23which was also affected by the Super Typhoon Leon.

01:26If the weather improves, more family food packs will be delivered using military assets

01:32even though there are still prepositions in the province.

01:36I wrote to Secretary Tudor and to Usec Mipamuceno

01:41that if possible, there are only three trips for the C-130 to deliver family food packs.

01:51For when we did the response in Batanes, this was during the Typhoon Julian,

01:56we have a strong 14,000 preposition goods.

01:59That's why we were able to use this.

02:01But the plan then was to replenish it.

02:03Unfortunately, Christine entered.

02:06Right now, we have already delivered 5,500 family food packs to the PCG vessel

02:12but Batanes is not able to deliver it directly.

02:16It is currently in Pangasinan.

02:18If it clears and we are able to fly through C-130, we will definitely be able to bring it to Batanes.

02:26In Batanes, the cloud ceiling closes early.

02:31So over and above, there are weather conditions that we have to look into.

02:37As soon as it is deemed as flyable, it is already ready.

02:42The OCD was also shocked.

02:44They continued to ask for help in other places affected by other typhoons.

02:50For those who were affected by the typhoon,

02:52because of Christine, don't worry, our attention will not go down to Leon only.

02:59Since the typhoons passed, we did not lower our alert level status.

03:05Your NDREAM OC is on a red alert right now.

03:09It started when the typhoon passed.

03:12According to the latest NDRRMC report,

03:15the number of people affected increased to 150

03:19because of the typhoon Christine while 20 people were missing.

03:23Patrick De Jesus for Pabansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
