00:00The life of a few people in La Carlota City, Negros Occidental is now affected
00:06due to the ongoing activity of the volcano Laon.
00:10There is a possibility of an eruption,
00:12especially since there is still a chance to raise the alert level 4.
00:18Aileen Pedrezo of GMA Regional TV reported.
00:23An aerial survey was conducted by the task force on Mt. Canaon in Negros Islands this morning,
00:30three days after the eruption.
00:32The task force said that all ash emissions and eruptive activity are in the summit crater.
00:37No fissures or cracks were found in the volcano.
00:40There is a pyroclastic density current deposit that will flow into the Permanent Danger Zone.
00:45There is also a thin volcanic smog that was washed away in the Sulphur Dive Site,
00:48in Silang.
00:51From 9.59 a.m. to 10.55 a.m. this morning,
00:54Mt. Canaon erupted again and again last Tuesday afternoon.
00:58Since Monday, there is a big problem for those who live and have businesses around the volcano,
01:04like in Barangay Araala Carlota City.
01:06This resort stopped operations because there are no customers.
01:10Their pool was also filled by ash.
01:12We don't have work.
01:14No work, no pay.
01:16We don't have food.
01:18We don't have a place to stay.
01:21The owner of the resort assured that they will help their employees.
01:25Animals are also affected by the eruption of the volcano.
01:28Goats, cows, chickens.
01:32Goats don't have food.
01:35They are also bitter.
01:38If you touch them, they will die.
01:42Residents of Barangay Araala Carlota City received help from the Jemay Capuso Foundation.
01:48I am thankful to you for helping us.
01:51You have given us a lot of guidance.
01:54I am thankful to the Capuso Foundation.
01:56I am thankful that we were able to get food packs.
01:59You have given us a lot of guidance.
02:02Thank you to Jemay Capuso.
02:04I am also thankful that we were able to get food from around the barangay.
02:08According to the task force,
02:10they plan to build 10 cities outside the 7-kilometer radius of the volcano
02:14once the residents of the 6-kilometer radius permanent danger zone evacuate.
02:19They will first evacuate the vulnerable sectors.
02:22The Negros Occidental Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council also recommended
02:27that the province be under a state of calamity
02:30to use the 78 million pesos quick response fund for those in the evacuation center.
02:36According to the Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council Region 6,
02:39the alert level of the volcano can be raised based on the monitoring of PHIVOX.
02:43There's really a chance that it will elevate into alert level 4.
02:47That's why to avoid double handling, we are already planning for level 4.
02:51If the alert level 4 is raised, there will be a low-level magnetic eruption
02:55that can cause a strong eruption at any time in the next hours or days.
