00:00According to the OCD, in addition to the strength of the structures,

00:04the quick response is also important after a strong response.

00:11Kenneth Paciente, in Centro ng Balita, live.

00:17Aljo, the government is fully prepared in case there is an attack on the country.

00:22The government is fully prepared in case there is an attack on the country.

00:27The government is fully prepared in case there is an attack on the country.

00:35In the Palace Press Briefing, the Department of Public Works and Highways said

00:39that they are continuing their assessments on the houses, schools, bridges, and other structures

00:45to ensure that they are safe in case there is a strong attack.

00:49In fact, they are focusing on retrofitting or improving the quality of the structures

00:56to ensure that it is ready for the big one.

01:02We've already completed more than 124 assessments and retrofitted public buildings in Metro Manila.

01:11We also have a program of 500 plus public buildings funded by our local fund and ODA.

01:19We have a partnership with the World Bank for 425 public buildings

01:26to retrofit and strengthen these public buildings

01:30to make sure they are aligned with international earthquake standards.

01:36They have already distributed the 200,000 equipment,

01:39as well as their other quick response assets,

01:42including the railway transits that they are currently monitoring.

01:47We need to consult the DOTR.

01:50They are in charge of the MRT and LRT.

01:54But if they ask us for help,

01:57to help their employees and assess the structural integrity of the infrastructure.

02:05The DOST and PHIVOLCS in Manaljo are also conducting the Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill

02:11to prepare Filipinos for a possible big one.

02:15Meanwhile, the Office of the Civil Defense has also given a statement

02:18that the preparation for the dock, cover, and hold is not yet complete

02:22because it is a big thing for the security of houses and houses

02:26to ensure the safety of everyone.

02:28Therefore, the permit should be issued to the buildings

02:32with the help of the local governments

02:35to ensure that they follow the building code.

02:38The structure should not be the only thing that needs to be strengthened.

02:42For example, the level of the dock, cover, and hold that we explained,

02:50even if we can make it perfect,

02:52if the structure is weak,

02:54you may also be in danger with that structure

02:57because you may get hit.

02:59Secondly, the structure needs to be strong.

03:02The 8.5 magnitude earthquake should be able to withstand that.

03:07Thirdly, the structure should be built in the right place.

03:13It should not be in the landslide-prone area or in the no-build zones.

03:19It should also not be in the liquefaction-prone area.

03:27Aljo, President R. Marcos Jr. is urging the government agencies

03:32that if the earthquake hits the Philippines,

03:35the help should not be in vain to the Filipinos

03:38who need and need a long-term solution for this.

03:43Aljo.

03:44Thank you very much, Kenneth Paciente.
