00:00In the face of the constant storming of the country,

00:04the Department of Budget and Management decided that the government has sufficient resources

00:09to help our fellow countrymen.

00:13And aside from talking about the funds, one of the questions now is

00:16how prepared are the Filipinos for calamity?

00:20The answer is found in the news center of Kenneth Paciente.

00:25The preparation of the Filipinos for calamity has increased

00:30under the leadership of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.

00:33This is based on the results of the survey of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative or HHI.

00:38According to the Presidential Communications Office,

00:41the survey showed that the self-reported disaster preparedness of the Filipinos

00:46has increased by 42% compared to the previous years.

00:49The HHI collected data from 4,608 Filipinos from all regions

00:55from February to March of 2024.

00:58It showed an average score of 19.2 out of 5 measures of preparedness for calamity,

01:03planning, training, preparation for equipment, information, and community support.

01:09This is higher than the 13.5% result in the first study of the HHI in 2017

01:15that used the same methodology and instrument.

01:18Even so, because the Philippines remains one of the most vulnerable countries

01:22in natural disasters, the HHI still gave the need to strengthen

01:27the efforts of the country in preparing for the disaster.

01:30Support and leadership are still important, especially in areas like local leadership.

01:35Using technology to develop early warning systems,

01:39community coordination, building strong infrastructure,

01:43and strengthening anticipatory actions.

01:46President Marcos Jr. first gave the effort of the government

01:50to address the effects of the calamity caused by the climate change.

01:55In the face of the next typhoons in the country,

01:58the DBM assured that the government is ready to help the affected areas.

02:02This is also due to the President's directive that the back-up fund is always ready

02:07for the needs of the affected areas.

02:09Through the DBM, the QRF was able to lower the amount of P30 billion

02:13to the government agencies until October 24.

02:16Half of it was already used, but other agencies like the DSWD

02:20were exhausted due to the calamity.

02:23Despite this, the contingent fund of P7 billion can still be used.

02:28Government agencies can also use their unprogrammed appropriations

02:32and local government support fund to augment their QRF.
