It is the first time that I heard in the news of a signal 4
being announced to hit parts of our country. I saw the devastation and the
death toll despite the announcements and warnings given by the media and local
officials. It seems that despite the technological progress mankind has made we
still fall short of what needs to be done to safeguard life.
A case in point is Japan, with all the technological gadgets
to warn them of impending tsunami, still a tragedy took place that nobody can
stop or prevent.
Of course, we do not need to look farther. Now what is the
point of this discourse, I guess I just would like to make an appeal that we
try harder as a country of people. Nature’s wrath will always be there but we
can manage most of it. Typhoons are a regular thing in our country. We know the
implications of one hitting us again, if that is so let us:
1.
Take PROACTIVE Actions;
2.
Pour resources to what matter most;
3.
And for good measure, implement the best
practices that we have recorded for many years of experiencing this phenomenon.
It seems a very simplistic proposal but the heart of the
matter to make these things happen we have to have leadership and skills in execution.
