Several roads and slope protections, bridges, and flood control structures were either totally or partially destroyed due to heavy rains and deep floods. NDRRMC Executive Director Ricardo Jalad assured that the devastated province will quickly get back on its feet as the Department of Social Welfare and Development Central Office, field offices and National Resource Operations Center have stockpiles and standby fund amounting to P1,863,042,677.57 that are ready for distribution.
