3 INTRODUCTION -The Philippines is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire and situated along two (2) major tectonic plates of the world the Eurasian and Pacific plates, and the Pacific Typhoon Belt. Due to its geographic location the country frequently experiences natural hazards such as: - 20 typhoons a year; - Existence of around 300 volcanoes ; - Prone to earthquakes, and; - 36,289 kms. of coastline that make us vulnerable to tsunamis

4 WORLD RISK INDEX RANK COUNTRY RISK (%) 1 Vanuatu 36.28% 2 Tonga 29.33% 3 Philippines 26.70%

5 Given that the Philippines is the third country on disaster risk profile, a Republic Act or an Act of Strengthening the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management System, was enacted last 2010.

6 Philippine National Policies 1. National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (NDRRMP) for a safer, adaptive, and disaster resilient Filipino communities towards sustainable development, and; 2. NDCC MC 12, s.2008-institutionalization of the Cluster approach in the Philippine Disaster Management System

7 DRRM Thematic Areas 1. Disaster Prevention and Mitigation 2. Disaster Preparedness 3. Disaster Response, and; 4. Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery

8 Global Campaign Hospitals to be safe from disasters, as to reinforce both the structural and non structural resilience of health care facilities and to ensure that it continue to function after any disaster strikes. With the support of the World Health Organization (WHO), the goal is to have a stronger health system and more responsive services with better financial risk protection. This answers to one of the seven target activities of Sendai framework for disaster risk reduction , which is to substantially reduce disaster damage to critical infrastructure and disruption of basic services, developing resilience by 2030.

9 Metro Manila Earthquake Impact Reduction Study (2004) Study of JICA, Metro Manila Development Authority, and Philippine Institute of Vlcanology and Seismology. Identified 18 earthquake scenarios affecting Metro Manila and its vicinity. Scenario 8: 7.2 magnitude earthquake hitting Metro Manila and some portions of Central Luzon, NCR, and CALABARZON due to the movement of West Valley Fault System

11 Based on the study conducted, an earthquake with a 7.2 magnitude from the West Valley Fault will approximately result in damages of 38% of the re Projected impact of 7.2 earthquake magnitude from West Valley Fault Approximately result in damages of: 38% of the residential buildings, 38% of the story buildings, 14% of the story buildings and 30-35% of public buildings. It is also estimated that 9 bridges will be affected, 4,000 water pipes will break, 30 km of electrical cables and 95 km of communication cables will be cut. is estimated that there will be 33,500 deaths and 114,400 injured with an additional of 18,000 deaths due to the spread of fire incidents.
