00:00Surigao del Norte Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office is recommending
00:05that Siargao Island be placed under a State of Calamity.
00:09Next week, there will be a power outage there.
00:12It is said that the island's livelihood is affected
00:15because the price of ice and oil for the generator sets has gone up.

00:24A broken submarine cable is the cause of the problem,
00:26but it took a long time to fix because the first mentioned location of the submarine is wrong.

00:35the State of Calamity may be declared.
