SHOW THEM HOPE...GIVE THEM A NEW BEGINNING
Disasters are indeed devastating. Not just one but all of us can be it's target. It maybe natural or human induced but there's no certainty on what will it cause. So as citizens, especially us Filipino, how do we deal with their danger? What are our ways to cope up and help the victims recover from these disasters' scratches and damage.
We've discussed this past first quarter about some environmental issues and one main focus is these disasters? We've learned that the Philippines (our country) is a disaster prone country due to it's location which is positioned on the Pacific Ring of Fire is where most likely volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and typhoons have taken place.
We've encountered and suffered from numbers of typhoons these past years. There's the Super Typhoon Yolanda and Ondoy where they had given a big burden to our fellow Filipinos. The Super Typhoon Yolanda which happened lately in Visayas particularly in Tacloban, Leyte had caused death to thousands of people, damage on structures , agriculture and affected their living. As of now they are still recovering from this traumatic incidence. It's hard for them to forget what had just happened. It gave a big scar in their lives that even a part of the family had to leave. The victims of it couldn't easily become resilient but we had our culture "Bayanihan" o "Pagtutulungan". With this we work together and help them to cover on a new beginning. We donate and give goods or other needs for our fellows. There are also different programs of the government that enable them to start again like the free house and lot for a family.
In facing calamities, being prepared, ready and calm is a big MUST. So that there will be lesser amount of damage or casualty. With our cooperation with each other not only the government itself, no victim could feel alone and hopeless. Instead they'll be engaged to formally start all over again.
