Dingdong Dantes is the lead in NDRRMC's important video on essential flood recovery checklist
Dingdong Dantes stars in an important video of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) about essential flood recovery checklist. On Facebook, the NDRRMC reshared the video it first published in June, starring the Kapuso Primetime King talking about the three things to check at home before going back to normal. Check your outlets. Before attempting to use electricity, make sure that there are no wet cables or wires submerged in water to prevent electrical hazards such as short circuits. Check your surroundings. Aside from your home's interior, make time to check your surroundings as well for stagnant or accumulated water that can potentially be a breeding ground for mosquitoes, such as plant pots, old tires, or any other containers. This is to prevent the spread of dengue or other mosquito-borne diseases. Check yourself and your family. Last but not least, check yourself and your family's health. If needed, consult a health center or your doctor immediately in case anyone is feeling unwell. Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon are contending with heavy rains brought by Habagat, shortly after Tropical Cyclone Crising's devastation. Some areas in Luzon have experienced flooding, while more than 500 flood incidents have been reported in Metro Manila. According to the NDRRMC, six people were reported dead due to Tropical Cyclone Crising, Habagat, and the low-pressure area (LPA). The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Asia (PETA) has already called for pet owners to include animals in disaster plans during typhoon season. Earlier Tuesday, state weather bureau PAGASA said heavy rains will continue to drench parts of the country due to the habagat and the trough of the LPA. The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority also issued an advisory the affected roads. As of 10am Tuesday, July 22, PAGASA is monitoring three LPAs in and outside of PAR. — Hermes Joy Tunac/LA, GMA Integrated News

Dingdong Dantes tapped as ambassador for 'Panatag Pilipinas' disaster risk communication campaign
Dingdong Dantes will serve as ambassador for the Office of Civil Defense (OCD)'s new campaign, "Panatag Pilipinas," which is aimed at expanding the knowledge of Filipinos in responding to calamities and disasters. According to Athena Imperial's report on "24 Oras," Wednesday, the Philippines' geographic location in the Pacific Ring of Fire makes the country particularly susceptible to various natural calamities. To enhance public action and preparedness for these events, the OCD initiated the Risk Communication Advocacy campaign. Initially available on online platforms, the "Panatag Pilipinas" campaign is expanding its reach significantly and will now be screened in cinemas and public spaces such as transport terminals. "These are very important venues where we can exchange or show itong ating mga mensahe," OCD Asec. Bernardo Rafaelito Alejandro IV said. "I appreciate the fact that it is now a multimedia campaign. One of the goals is also to make it accessible, to make it, of course, relatable and not intimidating," Dingdong said. During the program launch, Department of Science and Technology Secretary Renato Solidum stressed the critical role of science in hands-on disaster preparedness. "It is with your action that makes science more powerful and practical. The greatest strength lies in knowing when and how to utilize these tools effectively," he said. The Department of National Defense (DND) also stressed the importance of making actions during disasters a muscle memory for safety. "Our message remains clear and powerful: Alam ng Pinoy ang dapat gawin para maging ligtas sa panahon ng sakuna. These efforts must not only happen during times of disaster, they must begin before disaster strikes," DND USec. Irineo Espino said. —Carby Rose Basina/MGP, GMA Integrated News
