SAN JUAN City is preparing to procure and distribute more emergency go-bags and hard hats to every household as part of its disaster preparedness initiative. On Wednesday, Oct. 15, Mayor Francis Zamora said the city government is finalizing the procurement process for the household kits, expanding the existing program that initially benefited public school students. In March, Zamora said the city had already distributed 12,500 emergency go-bags to San Juan public school students, along with hard hats, as part of preparedness measures for disasters and calamities. In a Facebook video, the mayor encouraged residents living in condominiums, townhouses, and private villages to answer the online survey posted by the local chief executive, clarifying that the city government currently does not have complete data on those communities. Each barangay has conducted city-wide announcements, late afternoon today. Each San Juan City Emergency Go Bag includes a hard hat, raincoat, USB rechargeable flashlight, 5,000 mAh power bank, 12-hour glow stick, and a first aid kit containing a Basic Disaster Preparedness Module, emergency contact card, bandages, blanket, antiseptic pads, whistle and scissors. Zamora reminded residents to stay vigilant at all times, stressing that preparedness is key to ensuring the safety of families and the entire community.
