MANILA — Senator Win Gatchalian has called on the government to intensify its fire prevention measures amidst the prevailing El Niño conditions in the country.
“Because the El Niño weather phenomenon poses additional risks of fire incidents, we need to assist our fellow citizens in acquiring extra knowledge in preparation to prevent fire incidents in the country,” Gatchalian emphasized.
The senator made this appeal as the nation prepares to observe Fire Prevention Month in March.
In line with his advocacy, Gatchalian has extended food assistance to fire victims in Puerto Princesa City. He visited the evacuation center to assess the situation and the conditions of the affected families.
“This is not merely assistance; it is a promise to stand together in overcoming challenges. I firmly believe that with every family we aid, success in their recovery is inevitable, and through their triumphs, the foundation of our communities grows stronger,” Gatchalian asserted.
