Nakisimpatya si House Speaker Martin Romualdez sa mga nabiktima ng magnitude 7.7 na lindol sa Myanmar at Thailand, at sinabing nakahanda ang Pilipinas na magkaloob ng tulong.
“Today, we grieve with the people of Myanmar and Thailand, who are enduring the unimaginable pain and loss brought by the powerful earthquake that struck their lands,” ani Romualdez sa isang Facebook post nitong Linggo, Marso 30.
“We feel the weight of your sorrow, and across the seas, your suffering echoes in the hearts of every Filipino,” dagdag niya.
Binanggit din ng House leader na bilang bahagi raw ng Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), handa ang pamahalaan ng Pilipinas tumulong sa abot ng kanilang makakaya.

“In this moment of great hardship, we extend not only our deepest sympathies, but also our steadfast support. The Philippines, as a brother in the ASEAN family, stands ready to help in any way we can,” aniya.
Hiniling din ni Romualdez ang katatagan ng mga mamamayan sa Myanmar at Thailand sa gitna ng kanilang pinagdaraanan dahil sa lindol.
“We are bound not just by geography, but by a shared spirit of resilience and humanity. And in that spirit, we will stand beside you—as neighbors, as friends, as one community,” ani Romualdez.
“May strength and hope find their way into your hearts. And may we all continue to lift Myanmar and Thailand in our prayers,” saad pa niya.
Ayon sa mga ulat, umabot sa 1,600 indibidwal ang nasawi sa dalawang bansa dahil sa nasabing malakas na lindol noong Biyernes, Marso 28.
