‘Bagyong Ambo parang Yolanda Jr. sa lakas sa Eastern Samar’
SA laki ng pinaslang naidulot ng bagyong Ambo sa Eastern Samar, itinuturing nila itong Yolanda Jr.
Ayon kay Eastern Samar Gov. Ben Evardone umikot na ito sa iba’t ibang lugar at nasaksihan ang lawak ng pinsala ng bagyo.
“I just came from four hardest-hit towns of Dolores, Oras, San Policarpo and Arteche and I can say that devastation in my province is so enormous and unimaginable that I cam safely say that Ambo was Typhoon Yolanda Jr.: in term of damage to infrastructure,” ani Evardone.
Bukod sa mga bahay, nagdulot umano ng pinsala ang mga evacuation centers na ginamit na COVID-19 isolation facilities.
“One church was also totally damaged when it’s entire roof was uprooted. This typhoon is just like “Typhoon Yolanda Jr.” in terms of infrastructure damage.”
Ang simbahan ay bagong gawa at nasa bayan ng Arteche.
Sa palagay ni Evardone ay mas malala ang bagyong ito sa naidulot na pinsala sa agrikultura kumpara sa bagyong Yolanda.
“Aside from the massive damaged to traditional crops like coconut, corn fruits and root crops, some of the newly-harvest rice were damaged storage facilities were also damaged. This is a double whammy for us because we are also facing this Covid crisis.”
