ABSTRACT
Dulla M. Tarang, Rhaizal S. Ambaih, Rashied Najib Bin Mohd. Najib Bin (2018).THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DISASTER RISK REDUCTION MANAGEMENT
(DRRM) IN BALIWASAN DISTRICT. A Qualitative - Quantitative Research for Science,
Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Strand of Baliwasan Seniot High School. Adviser:
Dr. Deborah E. Bandahala.
The main focus of this study was to determine the implementation of disaster risk reduction
objectives: to determine the extent of implementation of the disaster risk reduction management
in some public schools in terms of landslide, flood, earthquake, tsunami and fire. To determine the
significant difference in the extent of implementation of the DRRM when the respondents are
grouped by school.
This is a Quantitative type of research. This type of research methods requires quantifiable
data involving numerical and statistical explanations. It utilized survey strategy in gathering the
data.
There were exactly eight (8) respondents in eight identified schools which are one (1)
respondent of Baliwasan Senior High School Stand Alone, one (1) respondent in Southcom Senior
High School, one (1) respondent in Baliwasan Central School, one (1) respondent in Zamboanga
National High School West, one (1) respondent in San Jose Gusu Elementary School, one (1)
respondent in John Spirig Elementary School, one (1) respondent in Southern Support Command
Elementary School, and one (1) respondent in Malagutay Elementary school. Based on the data of
School Year 2018–2019, the total population of the respondents of all schools is eight (8).
Based on the results of this study, 4.42% the students were informed by the teacher to go
to higher level of the building in case of heavy flood. Followed by 4.32% the school has strategies
on how to reduce the flood in the campus, 4.27% the students have knowledge on what to do
during heavy flood, 4.13% the teachers make the students aware of the causes of landslide and
4.10% the school has complete equipment in case a heavy flood occurs. The significant difference
in the extent of implementation of the DRRM when the respondents are grouped by school includes
the following: flood is found to have high extent in implementation of disaster risk reduction
management in some public schools in Zamboanga City which is (4.14). Followed by fire (3.77),
landslide (3.62) earthquake (3.58) and tsunami (3.47) which have also a high extent.
The researchers made recommend that: Department of Education (DepEd) must craft
programs that include the teaching of Disaster Risk Reduction Management in the public schools.
School principals must recommend to the Division Office for the offering of DRRM subject.
DRRM Head should coordinate with school principal in the proposal of including the DRRM
subject in public schools. Teachers must upgrade and enhance their professional qualification by
undertaking a training that related to the DRRM so that they can smoothly impart the knowledge
on the DRRM teaching. Students must learn and participate in the DRRM subject. Future
Researchers are encourage to conduct a study similar to this, using other variables.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
The policy objective of anticipating and reducing risk is called disaster risk reduction
(DRR). Although often used interchangeably with DRR, disaster risk management (DRM) can be
thought of as the implementation of DRR, since it describes the actions that aim to achieve the
In a study conducted by Glenn Fernandez and Rajib Shaw 2014, with the UN-led
celebration of the International Year of Youth from August 2010 to August 2011 there has been
renewed interest in young people and vital role they can play in important issues, such as Disaster
Risk Reduction (DRR). This study aims to examine the potential of science clubs as a vehicle for
youth participation in DRR in the Philippines. A questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain
quantitative and qualitative data. A total of 658 science club members from different provinces of
the Philippines participated in the survey. The result of the survey is used to explain how the major
barriers to youth participation in DRR can be overcome. Through science clubs, the youth can
become a link between their school, home and community and can contribute to spreading
knowledge about disaster prevention, preparedness and response learned inside and outside of the
classroom.
Recalling Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 targets for 2020 and
2030, one of the areas identified by Member States where technical support is required is in
developing the capacity of institutions and professionals dealing with disaster risk reduction and
the implementation of the Sendai Framework at the national and local level. Thus, United Nations

Thailand was the proud host of the first ever ASIAN DISASTER RISK REDUCTION
EXPO (ADRE) which will in Bangkok at the IMPACT exhibition Center, from 4-7 November.
ADRE is fully supported by the Bangkok Administration and Bangkok Fire. The exhibition will
comprise an Expo, Conference and Networking Event focused on one of the most important areas
in the world today – natural and man-made disasters. The need for such an event is now greater
than ever as underlined by recent global catastrophes. Economic losses from global disasters have
now exceeded $100 billion for three consecutive years, from 2010 to 2012 - the first time this has
happened, according to the U.N. Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR).
agreement, listing seven targets and four priorities for action. The Framework recognizes that the
State has the primary role to fulfil when it comes to reducing disaster risk, but this responsibility
should be shared with other stakeholders, such as local governments and civil society. The targets
of the framework range from reducing global disaster mortality by 2030, to substantially reduce
the number of people affected globally by 2030. A list of the targets and actions can be found here.
As previously stated, natural disasters do not occur spontaneously, they are the effect of a natural
hazard and the choices societies have made in order to prevent natural hazards in
becoming actual disasters. Disaster risk reduction is a choice. (NASA’s Aqua December 12, 2017)
The Philippines is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change and
disasters. Nearly 74 percent of the population and 80 percent of the land area are vulnerable to
disaster, with the capital of Manila considered at “extreme risk.” Typhoons and storms, which
make up 58 percent of all disasters in the country, related flooding (25 percent) and landslides (six
percent) pose the greatest threats to the country. Storms surpass all other disasters in terms of
number of fatalities, people affected and economic damage. Earthquakes (five percent), volcanic
eruptions (five percent) and drought (one percent) can also have devastating effects. Cumulatively,
these disasters cause an average of over 1,000 deaths per year. The National Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), created in 2010, is responsible for disaster risk
reduction, including good governance, risk assessment, early warning, raising public awareness,
reducing risk factors, and preparedness for effective response and early recovery. This agency also
formulated the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management framework, as a principal guide
for all efforts in the country. Many branches of the Philippine government are tasked with
addressing some aspect of disaster prevention, preparedness, recovery and rehabilitation and
climate change adaptation. The Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards program (Project
NOAH), led by the DOST, partners with academics and other stakeholders to develop systems,
Reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector is paramount to the achievement
of the Department of Education’s (DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The
ongoing implementation of these pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic
areas of the Philippine DRRM Act of 2010, otherwise known as RA 10121. These areas are
Prevention and Mitigation, Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Rehabilitation. To enable
focused, effective and strategic implementation, DepEd has established the office of the Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management Service (DRRMS), with regular full-time staff in its central,
regional and division officers. The division offices are responsible for ensuring that schools have
a functioning disaster management team. This School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Manual provides guidance to our division coordinators and schools in the implementation of the
Comprehensive DRRM in Basic Education Framework. This Manual explains the Framework and
identifies the tools to be used by the schools, with a particular focus on School Disaster
According to the study of Princess Alma B. Ani, Carl Rookie O. Daquio, and Albert P.
Aquino the Philippines as an archipelago is highly exposed to natural hazards because of its
geographic and climatological location. It is situated along the Pacific Typhoon Belt and is within
the Pacific Ring of Fire. As such, the country is susceptible to multiple recurrence of natural
hazards such as typhoons and storm surges, earthquakes, floods and landslides. In fact, the country
is ranked third among 173 countries in terms of disaster risk (World Risk Report, 2012 as cited in
Disaster Management Practices in the Philippines: An Assessment, 2013). The brunt of these
natural hazards, especially flooding occurrences, is felt the most by 27.6 million Filipinos who are
among the poorest and marginalized. They are often trapped in a seemingly never-ending cycle of
disaster, displacement and rebuilding (UNICEF Philippines, 2014). However, while natural
disasters are detrimental to properties and livelihood activities that caused grave economic impacts
especially to the poor, their occurrence are among the major causes of casualties in the country.
Annually, it was estimated that natural calamities claim about 1,002 lives. For a country like the
Philippines, a proactive disaster risk management approach is imperative with the end view of

Elementary School, San Jose Gusu Elementary School, Southcom Senior High School, Southern
Support Command Elementary school and Malagutay Elementary School. These are the schools

The reason why we conduct this research is to determine the benefit of implementing the
Policies of DRRM and to know how it can benefit the schools and students to help them reduce or
sectoral, inter-agency, and community-based approach to disaster risk management through the
formulation of the National Disaster Risk Management Framework. A National Disaster Risk
Management Plan (NDRMP) is being formulated, developed, and implemented as the master plan
that will provide the strategies, organization, tasks of concerned agencies and local government
units, and other guidelines in dealing with disasters or emergencies. The law also promotes the
institutional levels. A very important feature of this law is its call for the mainstreaming of disaster
risk reduction in physical and land-use planning, budget, infrastructure, education, health,
environment, housing, and other sectors. RA 10121 also recognizes local risk patterns and trends
and de/centralisation of resources and responsibilities and thus encourages the participation of
management. Moreover, the Act mandates the establishment of a Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Office (DRRMO) in every province, city and municipality, and a Barangay Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC) in every barangay. The Strategic
National Action Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction for 2009-2019 aims to enhance the capacities of
Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Councils. Finally, RA10121 provides for the
calamity fund to be used in support of disaster risk reduction or mitigation, prevention, and
preparedness activities for the potential occurrence of disasters and not just for response, relief,

Make DRRM information and data readily available by establishing a national DRRM Knowledge
Management Center, adopting an open data policy and fostering cohesion. Implementation of the
RA 10121 will continue to lack behind unless local government units see the need and feel the
urgency for DRRM and have the capacity to implement the law’s provisions. Currently
implementation lacks behind due to asymmetrical decentralization: the uneven delegation to the
local level of responsibilities and capacity for DRRM. National agencies involved with capacity
building efforts have to focus on local needs; for capacity building to be (cost) effective, first of
all they need to understand differences in risk profiles between areas. Scarce resources should be
invested in those areas most at risk and in need for assistance. With increased capacity, local
government units can find support from their community for disaster risk reduction programs.
We use this act because its provide us the implementation of DRRM and e can determine

This paper measured the organizational effectiveness of the Barangay Risk Reduction and
Cabanatuan City, Philippines. The study used the Gold Medal of Organizational Theory to measure
the effectiveness of BDRRMCs. The effectiveness of BDEEMCs was measured against the goals
and objectives Republic Act 10121 also known as Philippines Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management (DRRM)Act. The study used a research tool the Checklist of Disaster Preparedness
divided into four thematic areas namely; a) Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, b) Disaster
Preparedness, c) Disaster Response, d) Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery. The resulting scores
were described by the use of Disaster Preparedness Effectiveness index. The study showed the
need for periodic evaluation of the effectiveness of Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Committees and to set the standard of performance not only for the purpose of policy
evaluation but also for measuring community involvement in disaster risk reduction.

In study conducted by Viloria, 2012 to utilizing the case study design, describes the disaster
preparedness of four Typhoon Sendong affected barangays of Iligan City, namely: Hinaplanon,
San Roque, Upper Hinaplanon and Tibanga. The study focuses on the barangay disaster
preparedness before the typhoon, actions taken during the typhoon, and the strategies and activities
undertaken in the aftermath. Group interviews and in-depth interviews were conducted with the
20 barangay informants and the 6 key informants, respectively. Observation method was used to
generate information on the general profiles of the four affected barangays. The data were analyzed
utilizing content analysis .The study reveals that most of the barangays are not prepared for the
disaster due to lack of budget, which apparently resulted to negligence and over-confidence; only
one barangay was able to implement its Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan
(BDRRMP). The lack of proper information-based systems and the ignorance of the residents have
contributed to their unpreparedness. Delayed response and relief are due to impassable roads,
among other things. In the aftermath, barangay government officials have helped in the distribution
of the relief goods and have coordinated with the city and national governments, the NGOs, and
other private sector groups regarding their barangay long term rehabilitation.

ecosystem and has experienced natural hazards and disasters of varying scales over the decades. it
argues that, as the border military complex expanded significantly in Ladakh from independence
in 1947 and the region faced a number of conflicts, disaster governance has been additionally
shaped by national security priorities. The paper then examines the impacts of that hazard-centred,
military-led disaster governance for the population of Ladakh. These include: a relief-orientated
disaster management approach, reduced civil society presence and capacity in the region, and
limited local ownership of disaster risk reduction activities. This case study provides important
insight into why disaster risk reduction has been slow or absent in conflict zones.
hotspot in the world. For a small country with just a little less than 30-million population, the
disaster statistics are always frightening. School students of Nepal are also in extreme risk of
natural disasters, especially when they are in schools. In this context, a few education programs
for disaster risk reduction (DRR) have already been initiated and the results have also been already
documented. However, an evaluation of the real scenario with the help of an independent research
is still lacking. Therefore, this research aims to explore benefits of existing education programs of
DRR in Nepal. Altogether, 124 students from 17 districts were interviewed and various questions
related to disaster information, disaster knowledge, disaster readiness, disaster awareness, disaster
adaptation, and disaster risk perception were asked. Statistical analysis such as histogram analysis,
distribution analysis, bivariate correlations, and independent sample t-tests were conducted to
examine the relationship between students in disaster education-related programs and the key DRR
issues-related dependent variables. Findings of this independent research confirmed that initiatives
taken for disaster education in Nepal are not enough and a major challenge for DRR in a school
community for a country like Nepal is implementing methods, especially at the individual level.
Likewise, the disaster education should not only be confined within the school students, but it must
campaign called Disaster Risk Reduction Begins at School to encourage the integration of disaster
risk education into school curricula in countries vulnerable to disasters. A study was initiated to
determine how education, in particular curriculum development and teaching, contributes to South
African learners’ hazard awareness and disaster preparedness. Mixed method research (consisting
of questionnaires, interviews and document reviews) was done to collect data. 150 educators from
Gauteng, the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, North West and the Eastern Cape completed
questionnaires. Five curriculum coordinators, three disaster specialists and two disaster lecturers
were interviewed to record their perspectives. The first finding of the study was that the majority
of educators, disaster specialists and curriculum coordinators identified floods, fire, droughts,
epidemics, road accidents and storms as the most prevalent disasters in the country. The second
finding from the literature and empirical data collection revealed that South African communities,
particularly people residing in informal settlements and other poor areas, are more vulnerable to
disasters than their counterparts in more affluent areas. The third finding of the study was that
teaching learners about hazards and disasters is vital and must be expanded rate knowledge of
The role for education in natural disaster management that appeared most frequently in the
literature is teaching children risk reduction and management material. Children often spread
learning to their families and communities and many believe that ‘educating a child is educating a

The safety of school buildings is also a major consideration in looking at education and natural
disaster linkages. Children spend up to 50 percent of their waking hours in school facilities and it
is often the case that schools are not constructed or maintained to be disaster resilient. Additionally-
school buildings are often used by the wider community as a shelter in the event of a disaster.

1. How do the school P1. Earthquake and Fire as long as the tsunami and
administrators landslide we didn’t experience that kind of hazard in
implemented the aids and Baliwasan Central and also a flood so in terms of strategies
strategies during the implemented by the school for the three mention such as
following calamities? earthquake tsunami and fire, we usually conducted an
1.1 landslide orientation to the parents, pupils and stakeholders and also
1.2 flood to the teachers at the same time, we also conducted an
1.3 earthquake earthquake drill four times in a year and also we crafted our
1.4 fire contingency plan for earthquake, for the fire, and for the
1.5 tsunami tsunami and then every year also we evaluated our
contingency plan.
P5. First of all, were not prone here the landslide and flood
our preparedness here is the earthquake and fire only
disaster. First, during the calamities we have a training we
have a quarterly an earthquake drill we observe the time
measure while they evacuating to the safe area and also we
oriented the pupils if there is an earthquake drill, what is
the sign of the sound. Because if there is calamities there is
a different signs of alarm like the fire the sound is strait
why we do it quarterly so that the student knows the sign
of the earthquake drill and fire. If there is tendency will
happen the pupils and teachers knows the evacuation area
because we also have an emergency signs.
Table 2 shows the Implementation of aids and strategies during the calamities in Baliwasan
“Earthquake and Fire as long as the tsunami and landslide they didn’t experience that kind of
hazard in Baliwasan Central and also a flood so in terms of strategies implemented by the school
for the three mention such as earthquake tsunami and fire, they usually conducted an orientation
to the parents, pupils and stakeholders and also to the teachers at the same time, they also
conducted an earthquake drill four times in a year and also crafted contingency plan for
earthquake, for the fire, and for the tsunami and then every year also they evaluated the
contingency plan.
“Only those of the calamities prone to the school include landslide, earthquake and fire. Like
landslide, they always identify the evacuation area if this thing will happen impossible the
evacuation area is identified in their school they been the event the local communities will victims
of this calamities therefore the school is open to them to cater. In regards of an earthquake the
DepEd order as mandated in the department of education that earthquake drill should be
conducted every quarter that’s why children are oriented as well as teachers not only the DRR
coordinators, they also oriented of what to do during an earthquake the same also the fire that
school also regularly conducting a fire drill like those orienting pupils “Do’s and Don’ts” in case
of fire in their school”.
“San Jose Gusu is not experiencing a landslide, because they don’t have mountain they only
experiencing flood, earthquake and fire. They don’t have tsunami drill. First of all also the school
administrator is ready to support in terms DRRM and regards with aid of administrator the
principal support in any Aids they need in their DRRM program specially the sound system
decimation of information and other matters needed. In terms of flood they have an earthquake
drill. They think that the one way that support from the barangay of the DRRM. First of all, they
not prone in the landslide and flood they prepared in the earthquake and fire only. First, during
the calamities they have a training they have a quarterly an earthquake drill they observe the time
measure while they evacuating to the safe area and also they oriented the pupils if there is an
earthquake drill, what is the sign of the sound. Because if there is calamities there is a different
signs of alarm like the fire the sound is strait why they do it quarterly so that the student knows the
sign of the earthquake drill and fire. If there is a tendency will happen the pupils and teachers
knows the evacuation area because they also have an emergency signs”.
“Usually they focus on the most common which is the earthquake, and possible of tsunami because
of the location, they focus in implementation of the strategies to address the impossible disasters
and also in terms of the aid, they also ready like first aid kit, materials of the DRR like spine board
for the responses of the disaster so they do also a drills just like what they do so it is effective when
they conducted it during that time it successfully executed properly the earthquake drill. Yearly
before they implemented in aids and strategies they conducted workshop, seminars and orientation
quarterly for the pupils and teachers so in their school since they didn’t experiencing a landslide
usually they conducted a drills. Actually before it will happen they have an earthquake drill
because they are not expecting something that go beyond in their control that’s why they
conducting a drill so if ever there is a calamities in school they know what to do there are two exits
and they have male teachers doing the work and on how the works given by them. And fire also
they have a fire drill if ever there is a fire, only need to do is to press the bottom for fire awareness.
They have also an orientation conducted to the teachers they come up a group orientation so that
they can also orient their pupils in classroom they conducted a fire drill. They didn’t experiencing
calamities but they always prepared for this disaster and also they have a member of red-cross
they have medicines and first aid kit were it is ready they provided a kit to be prepared. The school
implement the aids and strategies by conducting Pre and Post drills to the pupils, teachers, and to
the admin”.
In summary, the school administrators should support the Implementation of Disaster Risk
Reduction management in school. And orient the pupils and teachers about the disaster risk
reduction awareness.
In conclusion, by this implementation of the aids and strategies during the calamities, it
will help the students, teachers, stakeholders and administrators aware about the calamities by
reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector and achieve the Department of Education’s
(DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The ongoing implementation of these
pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic areas of the Philippine DRRM
It implies that the Baliwasan District is implementing the aids and strategies during
the calamities.
Table 3
Problem 2 Respondent
How do the administrator P1 As I said earlier we had only the three such as earthquake,
implement the policies regarding tsunami and fire, all of this the policy regarding the
the following calamities calamities we only implement this on the contingency plan
so whatever our contingency plan we go for it for our
implementation when the hazards occur, we go for our
contingency plan.
Table 3 shows the Implementing policies regarding calamities in Baliwasan District. Participants
“In school, the possible will happen usually is the Fire and an Earthquake they introducing like
emergency scape plan, then they have a sign and signal in case if there is a calamities, usually
they do the alarm and they conducted a different trainings so far they didn’t have concrete of the
strategies specially doing a seminars because the DRRM are not fully structured although their’
are people who doing their task. They have an “Action Plan” they used the action plan because
as the DRR coordinator they make the action plan but, they ask first the Principal if that plan is
ok if he/she approving that plan, they distributed the plan to the teachers so that they aware of
what they will be going to do in case if there is calamities. Like also the programs and trainings
every year they ask what they needs. They also requested to train the pupils and teachers on how
to use a fire distinguisher so that the pupils will also know on how to apply it in field of calamities.
So actually, regarding in the implementation of the policies, they usually have in their’ guidelines
so during in the orientation, they come up a guidelines sample checklist. Because during in the
“Brigada Eskwela”, they distrusted to the teachers of a checklist what to do, what to expect, so in
this way they already implemented the DRRM policy. After the checklist, they following an
orientation about this. And all of their plan they coordinate it to the Baliwasan District”.
In summary, the school administrators supported the Implementation about the DRRM
policies regarding calamities. And it implement the Action Plan through effective awareness in
disaster.
it will help the students, teachers, stakeholders and administrators aware about the calamities by
reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector and achieve the Department of Education’s
(DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The ongoing implementation of these
pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic areas of the Philippine DRRM
calamities.

Problem 3 Respondents
What are the recommendation P1 Actually so far we don’t have yet calamities for the last
given to the casualties after the ten years so but we have prepared to give cost medical
calamities assistance, kit that calamities if occur, and we recommend
to the casualties of that calamities to be part of a drills in
all hazards so that we will know what to do in terms of the
calamities.
Table 4 shows the Recommendation to the casualties after calamities in Baliwasan District.
“Actually so far some of the schools they don’t have yet calamities for the last ten years so but
they have prepared to give cost medical assistance, kit that calamities if occur, and they
recommend to the casualties of that calamities to be part of a drills in all hazards so that they will
know what to do in terms of the calamities. So they didn’t experience this one but, they prepared
on this like they have their’ first aid responder specially their’ nurses the teachers they are all
chain doing and performing the first aid kits in case if there is a casualties and that is and after
that, contact to the proper authorities either in hospital. If ever there is an earthquake, the school
is ready for the evacuation center because they have an open court and also the teachers
volunteering their self to serve in case of the emergency”.

program for the DRRM
implemented by the public
school P2 We are mandated to conduct a national simultaneous drill
so it is not also all about the earthquake but it can be through
all calamities so we are required to conduct every quarter.
Table 5 shows the Policies and program supported by the government in DRRM in Baliwasan
“Actually the only support that the city to the school is the monitoring of the DRR hazards. As far
as they know, local officials, city officials are they are come to school ask for some trainings,
orientation, drill even the advocacy they are welcome in any respond if the service team requested
the lecture maybe or orientation. Actually the barangay they only workout if our school will
request something to them if we will not going to request they will not be giving any support in
their’ school”.
In addition, Participants 2, 5 and 8 said that:
“They are mandated to conduct a national simultaneous drill so it is not also all about the
earthquake but it can be through all calamities so they are required to conduct every quarter. Like
they said earlier, in case if there is an earthquake drill, there is an evaluator like from barangay
because they are the one who knows of what the need of the school in case if there is calamities
like they suggested that to add emergency sign age. They ask some support from our barangay
officials. The firemen demonstrate on how to prevent/prepared in time of calamities”.
However, Participants 4 and 7 emphasized that:
“Together with the City official’s, with the help of the DSWD office, they are really giving a
support in their’ school in the way of the teachers should be aware about the DRRM program.
Last the month of May, they go to the school and they suggested were they hope all trainings
regarding about the DRRM conduct a basic life support training or program. They think there is
a budget and support from the City officials for policies and program about DRRM. In all public
schools, the DepEd was very supportive. The government given us support if ever we ask a support
to them. In fact the building is from the government”.
