"Baka kasi ma-miss interpret. Mas mainam na nailikas na ang lahat kaysa magkaroon ng rescue. Delikado rin kasi para sa mga rescuers kung meron man na ire-rescue," Baclao said. Police Brig. Gen. Andre P. Dizon, Police Regional Office-5 chief, said that at least 1,600 police personnel have been deployed to provide security and become dedicated standby personnel for rescue operations.
These residents are at risk for lahar flow since their barangays are situated between large gullies of Mayon Volcano.
