PARTNERSHIP IN DISASTER PREPAREDNESS. Sarangani Governor Steve Chiongbian Solon confers with Regional Director Reynaldo Bungubung of the Department of Interior and Local Government during the first Provincial Preparedness and Partnership Dialogue on April 6. Bungubung stressed in his remarks the significance of “preparedness and partnership” in dealing with disasters. The primary goal of preparedness “is to avert the loss of lives and assets which can be made possible by ensuring the safety and resilience of communities.” While partnership, like this dialogue, will harmonize interventions in the conduct of various disaster risk reduction management activities, Bungubung said.
