According to PAGASA, El Niño will likely develop in July and may persist until next year (2024). This poses a serious threat to our city’s overall social and economic activities.
Other adverse impacts include the disruption of food production & essential services, damage to property, environment, loss of livelihood opportunities (agribusiness), and health.
It is for this reason that I signed this Executive Order No. 10 to activate the city’s inter-agency task force to formulate and implement measures to mitigate the effects of El Niño, particularly in agriculture.
May I also encourage each and everyone (starting from your homes) to take the necessary steps to prepare. Malaki po ang inyong parte sa solusyong ito, kaya’t magtulungan po tayo.
Please share.
