THE Presidential Task Force on El Niño has warned of intensified monitoring against hoarders and manipulators as the country transitions to the La Niña weather phenomenon. In a statement, Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro Jr., the task force’s chairperson, vowed to go after hoarders and manipulators who will prey on consumers by providing support to agencies involved in the price monitoring of basic necessities and prime commodities.

The task force was activated on the orders of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. to develop a comprehensive disaster preparedness and rehabilitation plan for El Niño and La Niña, and to provide “systematic, holistic, and results-driven interventions” to help the public cope with and minimize the weather phenomenon’s devastating effects.
