House Speaker Martin Romualdez marked the 11th anniversary of Super Typhoon Yolanda’s devastation by calling for continued vigilance against climate
change, which has led to increasingly severe weather events affecting the Philippines.
“The tragedy that occurred during Yolanda should not be repeated. No matter how strong the storm is, we must make sure our citizens are prepared. We must be vigilant against climate change to protect our people from falling victim to such tragedies,” Romualdez said partly in Tagalog. “This seawall brings peace to the hearts of Taclobanons because we know that there is extra protection against potential typhoons,” he noted. Romualdez said the giant seawall was built in 2016 and is officially named the Leyte Tide Embankment Project..
In the wake of Yolanda, which claimed thousands of lives and destroyed homes and infrastructure across the Visayas region, Romualdez reflected on the hardships endured by his constituents.
