BARANGAY Sambag 2 in Cebu City declared a state of calamity following the seven-hour fire that engulfed Sitios Kalubihan, Riverside and Brupa on Monday afternoon, April 8, 2024.The fire ravaged the vicinity of the Tuberculosis Pavilion, affecting 94 houses and displacing 669 residents, leaving them homeless.Authorities pegged the damage at P7,500,000.Barangay Captain Keith Noel Wenceslao confirmed the situation in an interview with SunStar Cebu on Tuesday morning, April 9.The number of affected residents surpassed initial estimates released by the Cebu City Fire Station (CCFS) shortly after the incident.“The numbers could actually go up further since we are validating more reports for the aid distribution to the victims,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.Wenceslao said they met with the barangay council in the afternoon to place the barangay under a state of calamity, so they could access emergency funds and resources to assist residents with their recovery and help rehabilitation efforts.Victims’ pleaWenceslao said all affected residents, or 231 families, are currently housed at the City Central National High School along Osmeña Blvd. He said they will not be allowed to return to the fire scene to rebuild their homes, as the area will undergo reblocking.According to a Cebu City News and Information report, Mayor Michael Rama said he wants the entire area at the back of the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center reblocked, and he “does not want concerned departments to delay it.”Rama and city officials discussed plans to help the victims Monday night.Rushed homeThe mayor immediately went home when he heard the news about the fire, which took place near his house along B. Rodriguez St., allowing him to assess the situation on the ground.Antonio Isobal, 54, from Sitio Kalubihan, is seeking assistance from the City Government to rebuild his house. He said his family was able to save only a few articles of clothing.“We hope that there will be monetary assistance that will be given to us to help us start once again because our situation is really hard,” he said.Isobal’s mother-in-law Alicia Jayoma, 64, a stroke survivor, is hoping to get a folding bed where she can rest, as she is currently confined to a wheelchair.AssistancePortia Basmayor, head of the City’s Department of Social Welfare Services, said they have evacuated all the victims to the school and will provide them with three meals a day for the first three days.She said they will distribute disaster kits containing a banig or woven mat, a pail and hygiene kits. Each affected individual will receive five kilograms of rice and canned goods.She said families are entitled to cash assistance and housing materials, or 10 galvanized iron sheets and 10 pieces of plywood, from the City Government.Owners of destroyed or damaged houses will receive P20,000; sharers and renters will receive P10,000; absentee owners or house owners who do not live in the area will receive P5,000.Based on the initial data, the fire destroyed 89 houses and damaged five. Among the victims were 62 renters, 37 sharers and 39 lodgers.Basmayor said the City Health Department is on standby to respond to any health concerns.Meanwhile, Wenceslao said that they are maximizing the use of the available electric fans inside the classrooms to help the evacuees cool down admit the heat.Fire incidentAccording to the fire authority’s report, the fire started at 3:57 p.m. It was raised to first alarm at 3:59 p.m., second alarm at 4:16 p.m. and third alarm at 4:23 p.m. It was declared under control by 5:01 p.m.The CCFS declared the situation under control at 8:22 p.m., and declared fire out at 10:16 p.m.Three individuals were injured, including two women aged 22 and 26 who had difficulty breathing, and a 46-year-old man who had a laceration on his left middle finger.The fire authority has yet to come up with a final report, but it is looking at an electrical problem involving a defective air-conditioner as the cause of the fire.Firefighters had a hard time getting to the scene because of the narrow roads, which is why it took seven hours to put out the fire.

At least nine people were killed and hundreds injured, buildings and highways damaged and dozens of workers at quarries stranded.Taiwan is no stranger to powerful earthquakes yet their toll on the high-tech island's 23 million residents has been relatively contained thanks to its excellent earthquake preparedness, experts say.Here is a closer look at Taiwan’s history of earthquakes:WHY SO MANY TEMBLORS?Taiwan lies along the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” the line of seismic faults encircling the Pacific Ocean where most of the world’s earthquakes occur.The area is particularly vulnerable to temblors due to the tension accumulated from the interactions of two tectonic plates, the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate, which may lead to sudden releases in the form of earthquakes.The region’s mountainous landscape can magnify the ground shaking, leading to landslides. Several such landslides occurred on Taiwan’s eastern coast near the epicenter of Wednesday's quake near eastern Hualien County, when falling debris hit tunnels and highways, crushing vehicles and causing several deaths.HOW WELL-EQUIPPED IS TAIWAN TO HANDLE QUAKES?Wednesday’s earthquake measured 7.2, according to Taiwan’s earthquake monitoring agency, while the US Geological Survey put it at 7.4.

Just minutes later, parents were again walking their children to school and workers driving to offices.“Taiwan’s earthquake preparedness is among the most advanced in the world,” said Stephen Gao, a seismologist and professor at Missouri University of Science and Technology. “The island has implemented strict building codes, a world-class seismological network, and widespread public education campaigns on earthquake safety.”The government continually revises the level of quake resistance required of new and existing buildings — which may increase construction costs — and offers subsidies to residents willing to check their buildings’ quake resistance.Following a 2016 quake in Tainan, on the island’s southwestern coast, five people involved in the construction of a 17-story high-rise apartment building that was the only major structure to have collapsed, killing dozens, were found guilty of negligence and given prison sentences.Taiwan also is pushing quake drills at schools and workplaces while public media and cellphones regularly carry notices about earthquakes and safety.“These measures have significantly enhanced Taiwan’s resilience to earthquakes, helping to mitigate the potential for catastrophic damage and loss of life,” Gao said.THE 1999 QUAKE WAS A WAKE-UP CALLTaiwan and its surrounding waters have registered about 2,000 earthquakes with a magnitude of 4.0 or greater since 1980, and more than 100 earthquakes with a magnitude above 5.5, according to the USGS.The island’s worst quake in recent years struck on September 21, 1999, with a magnitude of 7.7. It caused 2,400 deaths, injured around 100,000 and destroyed thousands of buildings.It was also a major wake-up call that led to key administrative reforms to improve emergency response and disaster reduction, according to Daniel Aldrich, professor of political science and public policy at Northeastern University.“Observers strongly criticized Taiwan’s response to the 21 September 1999 earthquake, arguing that it took hours for emergency medical response teams to arrive, that rescuers lacked training, and that the operations between government agencies were not well coordinated," he wrote in an email. As a result, the government passed the Disaster Prevention and Protection Act and set up two national centers to handle coordination and training for earthquakes.“I think we’re seeing the results in this most recent shock,” he said.

THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) has identified 12 barangays in the cities of Cebu, Talisay and Mandaue that have been “severely affected” by water supply shortages amid a continued drop in daily production.These are barangays Umapad, Opao, Alang-alang, Looc and Subangdaku in Mandaue City; Lorega San Miguel, Binaliw, San Jose, Talamban and Pit-os in Cebu City; and Cansojong and San Roque in Talisay City.However, residents in other barangays not included in the list are also struggling with their water supply, with one consumer reporting inconsistent service since January.This is occurring as Cebu grapples with the ill effects of the drought caused by the El Niño phenomenon, with its effects expected to persist until the end of May.MCWD spokesperson Minerva Gerodias told SunStar Cebu on Thursday, April 11, 2024, that they continue to face a struggle in providing water supply as its production has plummeted, with a reduction of 46,748 cubic meters of water each day.The local water utility’s daily output now stands at just 254,252 cubic meters as of Wednesday, April 10, which translates to a 15.53 percent decrease from the utility’s maximum production capacity.She said the maximum water production capacity under normal circumstances is 301,000 cubic meters per day.MCWD serves the cities of Cebu, Mandaue, Talisay and Lapu-Lapu, and the towns of Consolacion, Liloan, Compostela and Cordova.Last March 5, Tommy Gonzalez of the production department of MCWD reported that they were already losing 25,000 cubic meters from their daily water production, at the time when Cebu was still placed under a dry spell.Currently, Gerodias reported the halving of production at the Jaclupan wellfield in Talisay City to 14,193 cubic meters per day, from the usual 30,000 cubic meters, and at the Buhisan Dam to 3,143 cubic meters per day from 6,000 cubic meters.Lusaran Hydro’s water production in Cebu City has also been cut in half to 15,000 from 30,000 cubic meters daily. Only the water supply from the Luyang River in Carmen town has not been affected.Affected residentsThe ongoing drought has severely hampered the utility’s ability to meet the increasing water demand of the community.Gerodias said with the current deficit in their daily water production, approximately 46,000 households will experience low supply to intermittent water supply.Not in the listMariecon Guinto, a graduating radiologic technology student from Southwestern University Phinma, said that since January, they have been experiencing intermittent water supply in their residence in Sitio Zapatera in Barangay Luz, Cebu City.Guinto, 24, said their water supply has regularly become low, and they experience no water supply for at least two days a week, with interruptions lasting for three to four hours each day.She added that because of the unreliable water connection, they have learned to ensure that there is enough water in stock for their family of seven households.Jessa Faith Pepito, 25, a junior architect from Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City said that earlier this week, they started to experience a 14-hour water service interruption every day, affecting their family of 10 household members.She said the water supply comes back only every 8 p.m. until 6:30 a.m., so people are now losing sleep just to fetch water for the next day.Barangays Luz and Duljo Fatima are not in the list of barangays MCWD defined as severely affected.InterventionGerodias said to augment the water supply in severely affected barangays, they follow a schedule in deploying water trucks to supply these areas.In Mandaue City, water trucks visit Barangay Umapad on Mondays and Thursdays; Barangay Opao, Tuesdays and Fridays; Barangay Alang-alang, Wednesdays and Saturdays; and Barangay Looc, Sundays.Barangay Subangdaku receives deliveries on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays; the trucks also serve Mandaue Public Market in Barangay Centro on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Cebu City, the trucks are deployed to Barangay Lorega San Miguel Tuesday through Saturday; Barangay Binaliw on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays; and barangays San Jose and Talamban on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.Water trucks go to Barangay Pit-os on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, as well as to the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Talisay City, Barangay San Roque receives deliveries on Tuesdays and Saturdays, while Barangay Cansojong is served on Wednesdays and Fridays.Desalinated seawaterGerodias also addressed the expected initial delivery of 30,000 cubic meters of desalinated water that is supposed to come this month.Desalinated water is seawater that has undergone a process to remove salts and minerals, making it suitable for drinking and other purposes.Gerodias said there has been a delay as they are still coordinating with their contracted water suppliers from Barangay Opao in Mandaue City and Barangay Mambaling in Cebu City for the deliveries.“We are still hoping that they can deliver within the month. They are making adjustments in their plants, but the pipe laying is already complete. We are eagerly awaiting the operation of their plants,” she said.Additionally, she urged the public to practice water conservation as they face the issue of water supply shortages amid the drought.Earlier, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) Visayas announced that Cebu is currently experiencing a drought, which will persist until the end of May.Drought is classified as an extended dry condition, characterized by either five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly below-normal rainfall.Jhomer Eclarino of Pagasa Visayas previously defined below-normal rainfall as 20 to 60 percent less than the usual amount, while way-below-normal rainfall indicates a decrease of more than 60 percent from the norm.He also said last month that on average, Cebu receives 60.9 millimeters of rainfall in March. However, this year, it has recorded only 9.8 millimeters, representing an 84 percent reduction.

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Taiwan was struck Wednesday, April 4, 2024, by its most powerful earthquake in a quarter of a century. At least nine people were killed and hundreds injured, buildings and highways damaged and dozens of workers at quarries stranded.Taiwan is no stranger to powerful earthquakes yet their toll on the high-tech island's 23 million residents has been relatively contained thanks to its excellent earthquake preparedness, experts say.Here is a closer look at Taiwan’s history of earthquakes:WHY SO MANY TEMBLORS?Taiwan lies along the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” the line of seismic faults encircling the Pacific Ocean where most of the world’s earthquakes occur.The area is particularly vulnerable to temblors due to the tension accumulated from the interactions of two tectonic plates, the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate, which may lead to sudden releases in the form of earthquakes.The region’s mountainous landscape can magnify the ground shaking, leading to landslides. Several such landslides occurred on Taiwan’s eastern coast near the epicenter of Wednesday's quake near eastern Hualien County, when falling debris hit tunnels and highways, crushing vehicles and causing several deaths.HOW WELL-EQUIPPED IS TAIWAN TO HANDLE QUAKES?Wednesday’s earthquake measured 7.2, according to Taiwan’s earthquake monitoring agency, while the US Geological Survey put it at 7.4. It damaged several buildings in Hualien but caused only minor losses in the capital Taipei despite being strongly felt there.The earthquake hit in the middle of the morning rush hour yet only slightly derailed the regular commute. Just minutes later, parents were again walking their children to school and workers driving to offices.“Taiwan’s earthquake preparedness is among the most advanced in the world,” said Stephen Gao, a seismologist and professor at Missouri University of Science and Technology. “The island has implemented strict building codes, a world-class seismological network, and widespread public education campaigns on earthquake safety.”The government continually revises the level of quake resistance required of new and existing buildings — which may increase construction costs — and offers subsidies to residents willing to check their buildings’ quake resistance.Following a 2016 quake in Tainan, on the island’s southwestern coast, five people involved in the construction of a 17-story high-rise apartment building that was the only major structure to have collapsed, killing dozens, were found guilty of negligence and given prison sentences.Taiwan also is pushing quake drills at schools and workplaces while public media and cellphones regularly carry notices about earthquakes and safety.“These measures have significantly enhanced Taiwan’s resilience to earthquakes, helping to mitigate the potential for catastrophic damage and loss of life,” Gao said.THE 1999 QUAKE WAS A WAKE-UP CALLTaiwan and its surrounding waters have registered about 2,000 earthquakes with a magnitude of 4.0 or greater since 1980, and more than 100 earthquakes with a magnitude above 5.5, according to the USGS.The island’s worst quake in recent years struck on September 21, 1999, with a magnitude of 7.7. It caused 2,400 deaths, injured around 100,000 and destroyed thousands of buildings.It was also a major wake-up call that led to key administrative reforms to improve emergency response and disaster reduction, according to Daniel Aldrich, professor of political science and public policy at Northeastern University.“Observers strongly criticized Taiwan’s response to the 21 September 1999 earthquake, arguing that it took hours for emergency medical response teams to arrive, that rescuers lacked training, and that the operations between government agencies were not well coordinated," he wrote in an email. As a result, the government passed the Disaster Prevention and Protection Act and set up two national centers to handle coordination and training for earthquakes.“I think we’re seeing the results in this most recent shock,” he said.

BARANGAY Sambag 2 in Cebu City declared a state of calamity following the seven-hour fire that engulfed Sitios Kalubihan, Riverside and Brupa on Monday afternoon, April 8, 2024.The fire ravaged the vicinity of the Tuberculosis Pavilion, affecting 94 houses and displacing 669 residents, leaving them homeless.Authorities pegged the damage at P7,500,000.Barangay Captain Keith Noel Wenceslao confirmed the situation in an interview with SunStar Cebu on Tuesday morning, April 9.The number of affected residents surpassed initial estimates released by the Cebu City Fire Station (CCFS) shortly after the incident.“The numbers could actually go up further since we are validating more reports for the aid distribution to the victims,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.Wenceslao said they met with the barangay council in the afternoon to place the barangay under a state of calamity, so they could access emergency funds and resources to assist residents with their recovery and help rehabilitation efforts.Victims’ pleaWenceslao said all affected residents, or 231 families, are currently housed at the City Central National High School along Osmeña Blvd. He said they will not be allowed to return to the fire scene to rebuild their homes, as the area will undergo reblocking.According to a Cebu City News and Information report, Mayor Michael Rama said he wants the entire area at the back of the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center reblocked, and he “does not want concerned departments to delay it.”Rama and city officials discussed plans to help the victims Monday night.Rushed homeThe mayor immediately went home when he heard the news about the fire, which took place near his house along B. Rodriguez St., allowing him to assess the situation on the ground.Antonio Isobal, 54, from Sitio Kalubihan, is seeking assistance from the City Government to rebuild his house. He said his family was able to save only a few articles of clothing.“We hope that there will be monetary assistance that will be given to us to help us start once again because our situation is really hard,” he said.Isobal’s mother-in-law Alicia Jayoma, 64, a stroke survivor, is hoping to get a folding bed where she can rest, as she is currently confined to a wheelchair.AssistancePortia Basmayor, head of the City’s Department of Social Welfare Services, said they have evacuated all the victims to the school and will provide them with three meals a day for the first three days.She said they will distribute disaster kits containing a banig or woven mat, a pail and hygiene kits. Each affected individual will receive five kilograms of rice and canned goods.She said families are entitled to cash assistance and housing materials, or 10 galvanized iron sheets and 10 pieces of plywood, from the City Government.Owners of destroyed or damaged houses will receive P20,000; sharers and renters will receive P10,000; absentee owners or house owners who do not live in the area will receive P5,000.Based on the initial data, the fire destroyed 89 houses and damaged five. Among the victims were 62 renters, 37 sharers and 39 lodgers.Basmayor said the City Health Department is on standby to respond to any health concerns.Meanwhile, Wenceslao said that they are maximizing the use of the available electric fans inside the classrooms to help the evacuees cool down admit the heat.Fire incidentAccording to the fire authority’s report, the fire started at 3:57 p.m. It was raised to first alarm at 3:59 p.m., second alarm at 4:16 p.m. and third alarm at 4:23 p.m. It was declared under control by 5:01 p.m.The CCFS declared the situation under control at 8:22 p.m., and declared fire out at 10:16 p.m.Three individuals were injured, including two women aged 22 and 26 who had difficulty breathing, and a 46-year-old man who had a laceration on his left middle finger.The fire authority has yet to come up with a final report, but it is looking at an electrical problem involving a defective air-conditioner as the cause of the fire.Firefighters had a hard time getting to the scene because of the narrow roads, which is why it took seven hours to put out the fire.

(AP) licensed online casinos THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) has identified 12 barangays in the cities of Cebu, Talisay and Mandaue that have been “severely affected” by water supply shortages amid a continued drop in daily production.These are barangays Umapad, Opao, Alang-alang, Looc and Subangdaku in Mandaue City; Lorega San Miguel, Binaliw, San Jose, Talamban and Pit-os in Cebu City; and Cansojong and San Roque in Talisay City.However, residents in other barangays not included in the list are also struggling with their water supply, with one consumer reporting inconsistent service since January.This is occurring as Cebu grapples with the ill effects of the drought caused by the El Niño phenomenon, with its effects expected to persist until the end of May.MCWD spokesperson Minerva Gerodias told SunStar Cebu on Thursday, April 11, 2024, that they continue to face a struggle in providing water supply as its production has plummeted, with a reduction of 46,748 cubic meters of water each day.The local water utility’s daily output now stands at just 254,252 cubic meters as of Wednesday, April 10, which translates to a 15.53 percent decrease from the utility’s maximum production capacity.She said the maximum water production capacity under normal circumstances is 301,000 cubic meters per day.MCWD serves the cities of Cebu, Mandaue, Talisay and Lapu-Lapu, and the towns of Consolacion, Liloan, Compostela and Cordova.Last March 5, Tommy Gonzalez of the production department of MCWD reported that they were already losing 25,000 cubic meters from their daily water production, at the time when Cebu was still placed under a dry spell.Currently, Gerodias reported the halving of production at the Jaclupan wellfield in Talisay City to 14,193 cubic meters per day, from the usual 30,000 cubic meters, and at the Buhisan Dam to 3,143 cubic meters per day from 6,000 cubic meters.Lusaran Hydro’s water production in Cebu City has also been cut in half to 15,000 from 30,000 cubic meters daily. Only the water supply from the Luyang River in Carmen town has not been affected.Affected residentsThe ongoing drought has severely hampered the utility’s ability to meet the increasing water demand of the community.Gerodias said with the current deficit in their daily water production, approximately 46,000 households will experience low supply to intermittent water supply.Not in the listMariecon Guinto, a graduating radiologic technology student from Southwestern University Phinma, said that since January, they have been experiencing intermittent water supply in their residence in Sitio Zapatera in Barangay Luz, Cebu City.Guinto, 24, said their water supply has regularly become low, and they experience no water supply for at least two days a week, with interruptions lasting for three to four hours each day.She added that because of the unreliable water connection, they have learned to ensure that there is enough water in stock for their family of seven households.Jessa Faith Pepito, 25, a junior architect from Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City said that earlier this week, they started to experience a 14-hour water service interruption every day, affecting their family of 10 household members.She said the water supply comes back only every 8 p.m. until 6:30 a.m., so people are now losing sleep just to fetch water for the next day.Barangays Luz and Duljo Fatima are not in the list of barangays MCWD defined as severely affected.InterventionGerodias said to augment the water supply in severely affected barangays, they follow a schedule in deploying water trucks to supply these areas.In Mandaue City, water trucks visit Barangay Umapad on Mondays and Thursdays; Barangay Opao, Tuesdays and Fridays; Barangay Alang-alang, Wednesdays and Saturdays; and Barangay Looc, Sundays.Barangay Subangdaku receives deliveries on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays; the trucks also serve Mandaue Public Market in Barangay Centro on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Cebu City, the trucks are deployed to Barangay Lorega San Miguel Tuesday through Saturday; Barangay Binaliw on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays; and barangays San Jose and Talamban on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.Water trucks go to Barangay Pit-os on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, as well as to the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Talisay City, Barangay San Roque receives deliveries on Tuesdays and Saturdays, while Barangay Cansojong is served on Wednesdays and Fridays.Desalinated seawaterGerodias also addressed the expected initial delivery of 30,000 cubic meters of desalinated water that is supposed to come this month.Desalinated water is seawater that has undergone a process to remove salts and minerals, making it suitable for drinking and other purposes.Gerodias said there has been a delay as they are still coordinating with their contracted water suppliers from Barangay Opao in Mandaue City and Barangay Mambaling in Cebu City for the deliveries.“We are still hoping that they can deliver within the month. They are making adjustments in their plants, but the pipe laying is already complete. We are eagerly awaiting the operation of their plants,” she said.Additionally, she urged the public to practice water conservation as they face the issue of water supply shortages amid the drought.Earlier, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) Visayas announced that Cebu is currently experiencing a drought, which will persist until the end of May.Drought is classified as an extended dry condition, characterized by either five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly below-normal rainfall.Jhomer Eclarino of Pagasa Visayas previously defined below-normal rainfall as 20 to 60 percent less than the usual amount, while way-below-normal rainfall indicates a decrease of more than 60 percent from the norm.He also said last month that on average, Cebu receives 60.9 millimeters of rainfall in March. However, this year, it has recorded only 9.8 millimeters, representing an 84 percent reduction.
