00:00Tumulong na rin ang U.S. Marines sa paghatid ng relief goods sa Katanduanes para po sa mga nasalanta ng Bagyong Uwan.
00:05Si Noel Talaki sa report.
00:10Ito ang mga family food packs mula sa Department of Social Welfare and Development o DSWD mula sa Clark Air Base.
00:18Dadalhin ito sa probinsya ng Katanduanes gamit ang mga sasakyang panghimpapawid ng U.S. Marines tulad ng C-130 at MB-22 Offspring.
00:29It's really important because this is the big cost.
00:34The aircraft, the prepositioning, and the amount of personnel, manpower, time, fuel, and operating costs.
00:45So that's, don't look at the dollar and cents amount of what was committed, but also the cost of operating all of those.
00:59Bringing together that expertise, those intangibles, that experience, and to see the DSWD and the Office of Civil Defense and AFP evacuate people ahead of time,
01:10that kind of coordination really saved a lot of lives, and then we can bring in our expertise as well on what we can do best in terms of adding to the airlift capabilities.
01:19So we're really honored to be here and doing whatever we can to assist what are already outstanding efforts here on the ground.
01:25Ayon sa DSWD, nasa 10,000 mga family food packs ang ihahatid sa nasabing probinsya.
01:32Bahagi ito ng humanitarian effort ng Philippine Air Force at U.S. Marines.
01:37Ayon kay Tudoro, gamit ang mga nasabing sasagyan, panghimpapawid ng U.S. Marines, mararating nito ang mga liblib na lugar sa iba't ibang probinsya ng bansa na apektado ng bagyo.
01:49Lalo na't nagsasagawa na rin anya ang DSWD ng baga-preposition ng mga family food packs bilang paghahanda sa mga darating pang bagyo.
01:59In Cebu, we still continue. In the north, we continue. In Lawag, Pangasinan.
02:08And we need, this helps us because every hour you fly, it takes away from the remaining flying time of the aircraft before maintenance.
02:19So now, as was reported earlier, the DSWD needs to preposition again to prepare for the next disasters.
02:32Nagpabot naman ng pasasalamat si Tudoro sa Amerika dahil sa pagtulong nito sa mga nasalanta ng bagyong Tino at Uwan sa bansa.
02:41Samantala, batay sa pinakabagong tala ng DSWD, aabot na ng mahigit 375,000 na pamilya ang lubhang na apektuhan ng bagyong Uwan sa Katanduanes.
