00:00A coastal barangay in Ilocos Norte is preparing, especially as a swarm of tsunami is expected to hit the nearby sea on December 17 to 20.
00:10The Office of Civil Defense is preparing a more detailed plan and preparation in the event of a tsunami.
00:17We have the first news, Niko Wahe.
00:22FIVOC is calling for a swarm of tsunami to hit the nearby area.
00:26Just like what happened in the St. Catalina-Ilocos Sur sea on December 17 to 20,
00:32tsunami waves are close to the Manila Trench, from Northern Luzon to Batangas.
00:38Up to 193 quakes are expected to hit the area until this afternoon.
00:42The magnitude 1.8 to magnitude 5 is expected to hit the area.
00:46There are also reports of earthquakes after the Seventy Earthquakes on December 19 to 20.
00:52We are still not getting rid of the possibility of a big tsunami.
00:57When the Manila Trench moves, the worst-case scenario is a tsunami wave from magnitude 7 to magnitude 8.4 and a possible tsunami.
01:06In Barangay Gabot, Badoc, Ilocos Norte, which is one of the coastal barangays,
01:10a warning device is ready to sound in case of a tsunami.
01:14If the strongest tsunami hits St. Catalina,
01:17it is possible for a tsunami to reach 14 meters above sea level in Vigan.
01:22It hit more than three houses.
01:25FIVOC said that even if there is a tsunami, it is not safe to leave the houses.
01:30We are still not advising the hotels, mostly on hills and high places.
01:37According to the Office of Civil Defense,
01:39it is necessary to strengthen the preparation and seriousness of the incidents.
01:42Contingency plans are needed for every LGU or barangay.
01:47We need to have in-between drills for our regional offices
01:52and identify which communities are dangerous.
01:58If a tsunami hits Metro Manila, it is necessary to be six kilometers away from the evacuation center.
02:04In response to the question if the West Valley Fault will move, if the Manila Trench will move,
02:08it is not connected because it is a different earthquake generator.
02:11This is the first news for GMA Integrated News.
