00:00The Department of Information and Communications Technology, or DICT, has turned over a mobile

00:07emergency communications van to the Provincial Government of Ilocos Norte to enhance its

00:12disaster response capability.

00:14The custom-built van, officially named as Government Emergency Communications System

00:18Mobile Operations Vehicle for Emergency, or GECSMOVE, was funded by the United Nations

00:24and World Food Program.

00:26Designed to equip disaster response teams with the latest communication tools, the GECSMOVE

00:31ensures that responders can efficiently manage operations directly from the site of emergencies.

00:37The mobile unit serves as a robust mobile command center during critical situations

00:42with state-of-the-art equipment that enhances situational awareness and facilitates rapid

00:47decision making.

00:48The GECSMOVE features a fully equipped emergency hub, advanced dispatch systems, a motorcycle

00:54for swift navigation, and drones for aerial surveillance, allowing responders to assess

00:59and respond to disaster zones more effectively.

01:02We need a pool of experts as well to identify the equipment needed for emergency telecommunications

01:11response.

01:12We need new technology, we need new science and new research to ultimately assist on the

01:19ground.

01:20While Ilohos Norte braces for future emergencies, the GECSMOVE represents a proactive approach

01:25to safeguarding communities and enhancing their resilience in the face of disaster.

01:30From PIA Ilohos Norte, Mary Therese Ancheta, Balitang Pagpadsa.
