Disaster Training for Government Personnel


Disaster and Emergency Training - Dec. 11-13, 2008

Municipal Multi-Purpose Bldg.
Speakers: Mr. & Mrs. Alvin Egay and Ersalito Babia

The Office of the Mayor and Barangay Affairs of the Gigaquit municipal government, conducted a 3-day Disaster Response Training based on the Philippine National Red Cross model last December 2008. Mr. Alvin Egay and company who are veteran Red Cross volunteers, conducted the training attended by the Municipal Disaster Coordinating Council, Barangay Captains, secretaries and barangay councilors who are in-charge of the Environment.

Participants of the said activity consisted of different barangay representatives in the town. First and foremost, the barangay captains are intended to be the father of their respective communities. As a leader, they must ensure the important necessities of their constituents. In terms of calamity disaster, they must provide needed care and ensure personal safety to alleviate suffering and prevent further injuries and danger. As one main purpose of the activity, those leaders must be more knowledgeable enough and active in every circumstance that may come. They serve as first aiders who gain access to the affected constituents. That is why this kind of activity was realized in preparation for any disaster that may affect the area.
