Precious: Good morning, everyone. Today, we're focusing on earthquake preparedness.


The Philippines is located along the Pacific Ring of Fire, making us highly accessible to
earthquakes. We need to be ready.

Precious: Let's start with identifying earthquake risks in your areas. Anya dagiyay
concerns yu? (Pause for responses)

Renz: Adu ti balbalay tayun nga da-an, not built to withstand strong shaking. We also have
some steep slopes that are prone to landslides during quakes.

Buminsay: Our communication lines often get disrupted during and after earthquakes.

Gallema: We have a lot of elderly and disabled residents who need special assistance
during emergencies.

Precious: Ok, tatta kailangan tayu ti emergency plan. First, what are your designated safe
zones within the barangay? Ayna ti pinaka safe places to take cover during an earthquake?

Renz: We have identified open spaces, away from buildings and power lines.

Precious: Good. Kasanu ngay dagi Evecuaton area tayu? Are they clear and accessible,
even after an earthquake?

Gallema: Kailangan tayu kitan kin posible nga iclear dagi dadduma nga ruta tayu. There are
some areas with debris that could block passage.

Renz: Everyone, aramiden tayu dagi Drop, Cover & Hold. Ti ikasta tayu ket DROP to the
ground; COVER your head and neck under a table or desk; HOLD ON until the shaking
stops.
(After the simulated earthquake, Ms. Precious leads a discussion on post-earthquake
procedures.)

Precious: Kaspangarigan nalpasen ti earthquake, What's the first thing you do?

Renz: Check for injuries and assess the damage.

assistance, and ensure the safety of everyone.
Remember, preparation is key. Regular drills, community awareness, and strong
communication are essential for mitigating the impact of earthquakes. Thank you for your
participation.
