How Pearl Of The Orient Seas Survive?

       What do you know about how resilient the Philippines would be? An archipelago over 7100 islands, Pearl of the Orient Seas or the Philippines. Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world. Filipinos are known because of our traits like being hospitality, humble and being polite which is pretty uncommon to other countries.

       The Philippines is one of the top countries in the world at risk of climate-related disasters. The government takes disaster risk seriously and has devoted significant resources to build disaster capacity and reduce population exposure and vulnerability, nationally and locally. The results of the numerous activities in community based resilience and DRR have been identified across the whole disaster continuum. 

       The COVID-19 pandemic has brought upon the world with a lot of challenges. During the lockdown, our wealthy economy became its reverse all countries needs to shut down their economies to control the spread of the virus and in that case the Philippines is already flattening the curve. The number of cases is increasing instead of decreasing. But after few months 

       Hazards, vulnerability and risk assessments are conducted in the Philippines related to resilience. It is uncertain how well disaster risk is communicated to public, how many projects focus on improving community knowledge on hazards and disaster risk. Early warning systems and evacuations, this plans are necessarily   rely on public who understands their risks and understands the consequence of the information being disseminated.

       A greater prioritization of mitigation, prevention and preparedness in not only economically advantageous, but form humanitarian point of view, reduces the human costs, and aligns with initiatives on sustainable development. That’s how resilient the Philippines is.
