MANILA, Philippines – Nagpadala ang Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation (PDRF), sa pakikipagtulungan sa logistics and transport provider 2GO, ng isang mobile treatment plant (MTP) sa mga komunidad na apektado ng pagputok ng Bulkang Kanlaon.
Ang mga ito ay inilagay ng Office of Civil Defense (OCD) sa ilang barangay sa Negros Oriental.
Ang MTP ay isang mahalagang portable water purification system na naka-disenyong magbigay ng malinis na tubig sa mga komunidad na nakararanas ng water shortage dahil sa kalamidad.
Tinutulungan ng sistemang ito na maiwasan ang posibleng health risk dala ng water contamination at kulang na sanitation.
“This response is a strong example of how the private sector and the government can work together to deliver critical aid, especially in times of disaster. It highlights the importance of effective collaboration, leveraging the resources of both sectors to provide timely and essential support. This is not the first time we responded to Kanlaon and we sincerely appreciate the dedication of 2GO, AFP and OCD for their unwavering commitment and for working alongside PDRF,” ayon kay PDRF operations center director Arnel Capili.
“This collaborative effort exemplifies the importance of strong partnerships between the private sector and government agencies in delivering life-saving interventions to disaster-affected areas. As such, OCD remains committed to fostering such engagements to enhance disaster response and resilience across the country,” sinabi naman ni Susana Quiambao, OCD response and operations coordination division chief.
“We are always ready to go and mobilize our resources to support the men and women of our armed forces as they serve our fellow Filipinos. Providing swift and reliable logistical solutions during times of crisis is part of our unwavering commitment to national service,” pahayag ni Ethel Concepcion, 2GO head of corporate marketing and communications.
