President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. on Tuesday urged the country's disaster executives to study the measures of United States Federal Emergency Management Agency to learn its best practices for disaster management.
Marcos is pushing for the creation of a team that will immediately work every time there is an emergency or a disaster. He cited the delays in the government response whenever there are disasters and he pointed out the gap in granting authority to government agencies. “And pagka they assess on the ground , they can already start calling the other agencies...‘Yun lang habol ko eh. ‘Yung mabilis, para mas mabilis ,” he added.
The President, meanwhile, also wants to avoid the circuitous bureaucratic process and give agencies the authority to respond quickly and facilitate the immediate release of government funds.
