LEGANES, ILOILO – Basilia “Nay Basing” Moquete, 66, and Danilo “Tay Danilo, Moquete, 60, are married to each other and are currently residing in Guihaman, Leganes. They are amongst the most active members of PCDR’s Disaster Preparedness Committee in the town of Leganes.

Nay Basing is a small-scale vendor and farmer who sells the produce from their small garden, while Tay Danilo, due to health restrictions, can no longer do his former job as a carpenter. They currently rely on the support of their two sons living with them.

Last December 2021, Leganes, together with other municipalities in the southern portion of Panay Island, were ravaged by Supertyphoon Odette (Rai).

Nay Basilia and Tay Danilo, together with other DPC members in Leganes also helped during the relief delivery operation. 

“I am really grateful to those who extended their help to us. We would like to thank our group in disaster (DPC) and PCDR,” said Nay Basing.

Despite their preparations, Tay Danilo said that the impact of Typhoon Odette especially on their houses and livelihood cannot be predicted. Hence, the survivors in Leganes town appeal for help to repair their damaged houses. “I am appealing, since our roof was blown away and our house was damaged, that we are in need of GI sheets, nails, steel wires, bamboo, and plywood so that we can repair our damaged house,” said Nay Basing.//PCDR

“We informed the people that there is an approaching typhoon. We also told them to prepare in case there is a need to evacuate,” said Nay Basing. “Our family also prepared. We prepared our things. So that when Typhoon Odette gets stronger, we have our GO Bags with us, ready to be carried for evacuation. Those were the learnings we got during the training that we applied when Typhoon Odette came,” Nay Basing added.

As a reasult, there were no casualty recorded in their community and in the whole town of Leganes.

When it was safe to go out, the DPCs in Leganes, including Nay Basing and Tay Danilo, also led the conduct of DNCA and helped PCDR in gathering the necessary data.

Last January 6, 2021, a total of 155 families received food packs and hygiene kits from PCDR-CDRC-DKH.

“Our experience with Typhoon Odette is that our roof was blown away. Some of our things were soaked by the rain,” said Tay Danilo. “Now we just temporarily repaired our roof to protect us from the rain. Since our wall is no longer strudy, it was also damaged and so I told my children to temporarily repair it,” Nay Basing added.

Nay Basing and Tay Danilo are EnCap Phase 2 beneficiaries where they received different capacity-building training from PCDR. The EnCap Phase 2 project was also supported by the Citizens’ Disaster Response Center and Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe in 2019 to 2021.

“We used our learnings during the series of training on disaster when Typhoon Odette came,” said Nay Basing.
