Under the theme "Duck, Cover, and Hold: Gawin Dapat, Pero Hindi Sapat," the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) and National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) are urging the public to go beyond basic positioning and focus on long-term evacuation plans and community resilience.
The activity aims to strengthen employees' preparedness during an earthquake by ensuring proper implementation of the Duck, Cover, and Hold, and orderly evacuation to designated evacuation areas.
