Nilinaw ng Cebu Provincial Government na hindi kailangan ng permit ang sino mang indibidwal o kahit na anong grupo para makapag-abot ng tulong sa mga naapektuhan ng lindol sa northern Cebu.
“The Cebu Provincial Government clarifies that no permits are required for private individuals or groups transporting relief goods to northern Cebu. Those who wish to deliver aid directly may do so without needing to register with the province,” saad nila sa kanilang Facebook page nitong Huwebes, Oktubre 2.
Binanggit din nila na ang mga donasyon na dadaan sa Capitol ay tatanggapin at maire-record sa kanilang Command Center para masigurado ang maayos na dokumentasyon.
“Donations coursed through the Capitol, however, will be received and recorded at the Command Center to ensure transparency, proper documentation, and accountability, and to guarantee that assistance reaches intended beneficiaries,” dagdag pa rito.
Sa kaugnay na post, nagpapaabot din ng pasasalamat ang pamahalaang lalawigan ng Cebu sa patuloy na dagsa ng tulong sa kanilang lugar.
“We are deeply grateful for the overwhelming enthusiasm and generosity of those who have stepped forward to volunteer. At this point, however, we will be pausing the acceptance of new volunteers so that we can remain organized and efficient in our response,” saad dito.
“This is not the end of our efforts; On the contrary, we are preparing for sustained work in the coming days, and we will certainly call on your continued support as needs arise. Thank you for your understanding and for standing with us in these trying times,” dagdag pa rito.
Matatandaang niyanig ng 6.9 magnitude na lindol ang Bogo City, Cebu at iba pang karatig-lugar noong Martes, Setyembre 30, na nagdulot din ng pagyanig sa iba pang parte ng Visayas, ayon sa Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).
