President Marcos assured that the government has stepped up disaster preparedness by pre-positioning relief packs and emergency “go bags” nationwide.
He said the Department of Social Welfare and Development and local governments have stocked essential supplies to ensure quick responses to natural disasters.
Marcos urged families to prepare their own evacuation plans and emergency kits with vital items like food, water, medicine, and important documents.
He also called for strict enforcement of building safety standards to protect communities from earthquake damage.
The President reminded Filipinos to get updates only from official sources and emphasized that being prepared is crucial to saving lives.
