00:00Kabilang din sa katuwang ng pamahalaan sa pagtugon sa epekto ng mga sama ng panahon ay ang Philippine Red Cross.
00:08Kaya naman makakapanayam natin ngayon si Philippine Red Cross Chairman Richard Gordon.
00:14Magandang hapon po, PRC Chairman Richard Gordon.
00:16Live po tayo ngayon sa Integrated State Media Special Coverage.
00:22Hi Angelique, is that you?
00:23Yes, this is me. Magandang hapon po, Gov.
00:26Saan-saan na po ang pagkakapreposition ng mga tauhan ng Philippine Red Cross ngayon?
00:56Noong mga logistics like from ambulances to shelter kits to food just in case they're going to need food.
01:04We also have first aid stations there nakahanda just in case.
01:08But in the meantime, we've already prepared what we call anticipatory actions.
01:13that we've been able to keep in mind the places that we can keep in mind.
01:19We've been able to keep in mind the environment over the weekend, although I think it's pretty cool.
01:24But on the other hand, we've been able to keep in mind the farm animals in order to keep in mind the safe area.
01:34At para sa ganoon, mabawasan yung damage.
01:37In the meantime, all our people are prepared.
01:40Meron tayong mga water treatment units sa Batanes, generator set, at saka may service vehicle na kaabang doon.
01:48At meron tayong mga rescue equipment and first aid kit doon.
01:52Kagayan, we have 9,553 volunteers doon.
01:56Meron tayong staff and volunteers, of course.
01:59Meron rin ambulances, may food truck, may generator set, and shelter sentering kits.
02:04In addition to that, we have prepositioned another food truck.
02:09We sent it to Luwag coming from dito sa Abra.
02:16Inilipat namin yung sa Abra because yung di masyadong tatabahan yung Abra.
02:20So, dinala namin yung food truck doon because shelter, ang ulang tatabahan dyan yung pagkain ng tao,
02:24kung di sila bakalabas, para pagdating lumaan na sila, pagdating kagad may hot meals kagad, may isa serve.
02:30So, basically, importante also dyan yung communications.
02:34We have star links, satellite phones, saka lagay doon, para we can react pagkainabi sabi ko anong kailangan.
02:41Meron kami mga warehouses sa Subic, sa Park, hanggang sa Luwag that can react to all these things.
02:47Opo, so malawak po at talagang marami pong areas ang inyo pong partisipasyon ngayon.
02:51Kasi ang pagkakilala po ng mga ordinaryong mamamayan, sa dugo po, nakilala kasi ang Philippine Red Cross, Governor.
03:01Hindi yun yun, dahil matagal na kaming wala dyan.
03:04We have already built 174,000 homes in the last 20 years.
03:11We are serving in water.
03:12We have 29 water tankers.
03:14We have 180 ambulances.
03:16We have over 145 tents na pwedeng ilagay.
03:20Meron kami emergency-proof hospitals.
03:23So, ang tawag namin dyan, ang strategy namin dyan, meron kaming 2 million volunteers.
03:27Meron kami logistics na pwedeng padala dyan from ambulances to payloaders.
03:31Diladala namin yung payloaders kung may landslides.
03:34At pagkatapos, meron pa tayo ng tawag na information technology.
03:38Nakakonek lahat dyan sa aming company center.
03:40So, baka kakonek yung mga volunteers kung may nag-ibang tulay right away, madagawa namin ang paraan kung paano madadala po anong kailangan ng mga tao dyan.
03:49Meron pa po ba kayong kailangang karagdagang suporta?
03:53Ito pong Philippine Red Cross mula po sa ating mga otoridad.
03:56Apart from the many things that you've already mentioned earlier.
04:01Kami, auxiliary lang kami ng gobyerno.
04:03We are always supportive of the government.
04:05The government is the one.
04:07Kaya marami palaging pagkain ng gobyerno.
04:09So, they have a budget.
04:10We do have a budget from the government.
04:12So, they can estimate ilang food packs ang bibilihan nila.
04:15They can have millions and millions of food packs.
04:17So, kagad, pag may disaster doon, nakahandaan na nakakahon na yun.
04:20Ang dinadala namin ay yung tinatawag nating food trucks.
04:26Siyempre, pag rin gawa ng food packs, hindi makakapangluto yung tao doon.
04:29Nadaliyan namin doon, luto na yung pagkain o pagkakina-focus.
04:33Nadagdagan namin yan, iluluto yung pagkain doon para mainit ang pagkain ng mga tao.
04:38Usually, walang tubig pagkapatapos ng bagyo.
04:40So, meron tayong mga water filtration devices,
04:44meron tayong water tanker,
04:45meron tayong mga jerry cars,
04:47may i-distribute sa mga tao,
04:49pipila na lang sila doon.
04:50At diladala namin yung dilataw na payloader,
04:53kung halimbawa,
04:54galimbawa nung araw sa kagayan,
04:55nabaha sila yung mga natatalin na mani,
04:59nabaha lahat siyon,
05:01ni-restore namin yung lupa na napuno ng putik,
05:04and in less than 3 days,
05:06na-restore namin yung putik,
05:08nakapagtalim kaagad yung mga farmer,
05:10nakakabawi sila.
05:11So, isang beses naman,
05:12nag-ibahay mga bubong nila doon sa may bandang Santa Ana.
05:17Anong bayan yun?
05:18Nasa dagat,
05:21nag-ibahay yung mga eskwela doon,
05:24pinadala namin ng bubong sa eskwela.
05:26In 2 weeks, na itayo kaagad,
05:29meron kami litrato dyan eh,
05:30hindi lang makakipap yung mga tao ko dito,
05:32at pagod na siguro.
05:34Yung mga bubong ng bahad,
05:36ng mga eskwela,
05:37ay dahit tayo kaagad
05:39in less than a week or two.
05:41So, kami,
05:42we don't react.
05:43We think ahead,
05:44we predict,
05:45we plan,
05:45we prepare,
05:46and we constantly practice
05:48para hindi tayo makakulay pagdating ng oras.
05:50Alright, ako,
05:51maraming salamat po
05:52sa mga ibinahagi nyo sa amin
05:53ngayong hapon.
