00:00On the effects of the Super Typhoon Leon and the preparations of the PCG,

00:05we will now hear from Commodore Aljir Ricafrente,

00:10the spokesperson of the Philippine Coast Guard.

00:13Commodore, good afternoon.

00:15Good afternoon, Mr. Asec and Director Sherry.

00:20Good afternoon to all of you as well.

00:22Sir, Leon is in the Super Typhoon category.

00:26What assistance is the PCG distributing to our travellers

00:32especially to the areas that were severely affected by the Super Typhoon Leon?

00:38To those of us who have received a Typhoon Warning Signal,

00:42our travel there is still suspended,

00:46especially in the Batanes area.

00:48And to our travellers,

00:51we know that we have a lot of countrymen who want to experience this typhoon.

00:57We will continue to provide services to them

01:02so that they can travel safely and safely.

01:05Sir, how is your response to stranded passengers?

01:11Are there any already?

01:12And what are the locations of these passengers?

01:15We have stranded passengers.

01:20Even though there are a few, we did not cancel them.

01:23According to our record, based on the report that we received,

01:27around 50 of our stranded passengers are in Southern Tagalog,

01:35particularly in the Rial area,

01:39in Wawa port, in Balanacan.

01:42We also have stranded passengers in Bicol area,

01:45particularly in Biracatan 1, San Pascual port, and Pasacau.

01:51We also have stranded passengers in small boats

01:55because the waves are still high.

01:58And we can see that our boats are still unable to travel to these areas.

02:06Sir, you mentioned those areas.

02:10What assistance does the PCG need?

02:15Especially since Typhoon Leon has already been experienced.

02:19You mentioned protecting our fishermen.

02:24But what will be the focus of the PCG now that Typhoon Leon has already passed?

02:31In collaboration with the local government unit,

02:35we are always calling on them to take care of our countrymen,

02:41especially the small fishermen,

02:44to not go abroad because we still have people living in our area of responsibility.

02:52And in the places where we have stranded passengers,

02:56we are also in contact with other agencies of emergency concern in the port

03:01that are providing assistance.

03:03If the travel to those places is delayed,

03:08we are helping to provide them with food.

03:14In fact, as part of the directive of our Department of Transportation,

03:22as a part of the transportation sector,

03:26we have set up help desks in our ports,

03:31especially in the places where the travel is not suspended,

03:35so that this will serve as an immediate response of our government

03:42to our travelers who have concerns,

03:45whether it is medical or in their travel schedule.

03:53Sir, in other talks, is the PCG on high-tend alert now?

03:59What are your steps to ensure the safety of our seaports this long weekend holiday?

04:07That's right. Since October 29, we have been on high-tend alert

04:13because of the expected increase in the number of passengers.

04:17Our operational unit has also increased

04:21to ensure the security of our countrymen and travelers.

04:26The security is important.

04:28We are helping the port authority to arrange the passage of passengers and ships.

04:34Our Philippine Coast Guard Auxiliary is also helping us during this time.

04:42When it comes to the security of our countrymen and travelers,

04:46they may encounter inconveniences in our K-9 units

04:52that require their equipment to be sniffed

04:56to ensure that there are no drunksmen or mobs.

05:02Commodore, you mentioned the augmentation.

05:06How many are our total deployments?

05:08Of course, our services were divided because there were two typhoons and waves.

05:14So, how do we divide our key areas?

05:20For us, our people are in place in each area, in each pier.

05:26The relief operation effort that we are augmenting,

05:32most of them are in place.

05:34That is what is best for their work.

05:38And for our relief operations,

05:40most of the relief goods are from other parts of the country

05:46and most of the relief goods are through our ships.

05:50They are the ones who deliver it.

05:52With the help of the local government,

05:54it is delivered to the warehouses and to our countrymen.

05:58In terms of our services, as I said earlier,

06:02our people are in place.

06:04We are just adding our operational units that are concerned,

06:08like our K-9 units, our special operations groups,

06:12and the medical teams that we are augmenting.

06:16Sir, do you have a message or a reminder for our countrymen who are affected by the typhoon?

06:21We will remind them.

06:23We will not get tired of reminding them

06:25to remain vigilant in the events of our disaster,

06:28especially in places where the weather is getting worse.

06:32And even in their travel,

06:34I hope they will not bring large items

06:38and the prohibited items that we do not allow them to ride on boats

06:44so that they will not be affected by their travel.

06:49All right.

06:50Thank you very much, Oras Commodore Algier Ricafrente,

06:54the spokesperson of the Philippine Coast Guard.
