Anchored with the goal of promoting disaster preparedness and resilience among all government employees and all Filipinos at large, the Department of Science and Technology XII (DOST XII) joins this year’s second quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) today at 2 p.m.
An alarm rang at exactly 2 p.m., urging the employees to respond properly to an earthquake by doing the drop, cover, and hold. They then evacuated to the designated open area on the outside of the office.
This quarter’s NSED tested the Harmonized National Contingency Plan, preparing for the 7.2 magnitude earthquake scenario.
The DOST XII, led by its ever-dynamic Regional Director, Engr. Sammy P. Malawan, is always one with the nation in urging the populace to develop a culture of disaster resilience, echoing one of the department’s pillars-wealth protection.
