00:00DSWD has already started preparing the family food packs that will be distributed to those affected by Hurricane Christine.
00:08From DSWD, let's get an update from Benji Dorango live. Benji?
00:16I'm still here at the National Resource Operations Center or NROC of DSWD.
00:22This is where the family food packs will be distributed to those affected by Hurricane Christine.
00:32You can see the DSWD personnel and volunteers who are packing rice here at NROC.
00:41According to the report of the DSWD head office, there are 176,436 boxes of family food packs that can be delivered to different areas.
00:54Aside from the numbers that I mentioned earlier, there is a supply of food packs to the LGUs.
01:03If the LGUs run out, the DSWD field office will be able to provide additional supplies.
01:10This is called preposition goods.
01:12If the local warehouses run out, all packages will be transported from NROC Pasay to the affected areas.
01:22This is the cycle of government response to ensure that those affected by the hurricane will not starve.
01:30According to the report of the DSWD, there are more than 94,000 food packs in the Ilocos region.
01:35There are more than 114,000 food packs in Cagayan Valley.
01:40There are 63,000 food packs in the Cordillera Administrative Region.
01:44There are less than 1,600 food packs in Batanes Island.
01:48The DSWD is doing a lot of work.
01:53The OECD estimates that up to 30 million people from 18,000 barangays could be affected by Hurricane Christine.
02:03Meanwhile, I will explain to you the contents of the family food pack that I mentioned earlier.
02:09Inside the DSWD, there are two buckets of vacuum-sealed rice.
02:17Each bucket contains 3 kilograms of rice.
02:19In total, each bucket contains 6 kilograms of rice.
02:22There are 10 different types of sardines in the family food pack.
02:32Aside from the sardines, there are 5 sachets of coffee and 5 sachets of chocolate.
02:40This is the coffee.
02:43This is the contents of the family food pack that is enough for a family with 5 members.
02:49They will be able to eat for 3 days.
02:52They will not starve while performing rescue operations or while inside an evacuation center.
03:00That is the update from Endok, Pasay.
03:03We will be back in the studio.
03:05Thank you very much, Benji Durango.
