The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) 10-man disaster response team arrived in Super Typhoon Odette-ravaged Siargao with VSATs to restore lifeline communications to islands that help has arrived and recovery operations have begun,” said PRC Chairman Senator Dick Gordon.
The PRC has proven that it continues to bring hope to super Typhoon Odette-aff a Very Small Aperture Terminals or VSAT in the devastated island. A second VSAT was also established in Surigao City.
“With our continued commitment to the preservation of life and dignity, we always go the extra mile to help our people,” emphasized Chairman and CEO Dick Gordon.
Embodying the mantra of volunteers + Logistics + Information Technology = A Red Cross that is always first, always ready, and always there, the PRC was the first to set up the two VSATs to restore lifelines on the island. Meanwhile, PRC Disaster Management Services said that they will set up more VSATs in Palawan and Southern Leyte. (PR)
