Kuya Bong pushes DDR creation anew

Senator Christopher Lawrence "Bong" Go remains focused on building a more disaster-resilient nation as he continues to push for legislative measures aimed at effectively and efficiently dealing with natural and human-induced disasters and other calamities.

This comes after super typhoon "Karding" affected a large part of Luzon with heavy rains and strong winds, prompting the national government to suspend classes and work in all regions in Luzon on Monday.

The highest emergency preparedness and response protocol has been issued by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council over Central and Southern Luzon, Bicolandia and Metro Manila.

Considering how natural disasters can seriously affect the country's economy and put people's lives at risk, the lawmaker refiled Senate Bill 1181, otherwise known as the Philippine Building Act of 2022, which aims to protect the people's lives and mitigate the impact of disasters by setting standards and benchmarks that all buildings and structures must meet with, particularly the recommended structural stability and integrity designed to withstand disasters.
