Preparedness is the Key

Cooperation, interaction, and action are needed to have a solution. Society’s problems are rampant, one of it is the unpredictable disasters.

 Philippines are one of the countries that are prone to disasters, because it is located at the Pacific Ring of Fire and it is along the Pacific Ocean. Thus, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are unpredictable in occurring at different parts of the country, and as it located along the Pacific Ocean, the country is prone to typhoons. In this case, how can people survive if these disasters are unpredictable.

Government has implemented the National Disaster Resilience Month, with the theme, “Kahandaan sa Sakuna’t Peligro para sa Tunay na Pagbabago.” In which different programs are done to  intensify the preparedness of communities in different disasters. Being prepared is really beneficial.  Thus, being prepared reduces uncertainty, reduce fear, anxiety, loss of life, and greatly reduce danger.

Disasters are just like an obstacle course that you are asked to finish. Every obstacle course, players are preparing and conditioning themselves in order for them to finish the track quickly. As well as in disasters, people are preparing themselves to be ready in any situations they’re might go through.
