Solon proposes creation of task force for 'Rolly' rehab efforts
Camarines Sur Representative Luis Raymund Villafuerte is pushing for the creation of a special task force to spearhead the rehabilitation of regions devastated by typhoons Quinta and Rolly.
He filed a House resolution urging President Rodrigo Duterte to develop a comprehensive Bicol rehabilitation program focused on immediate relief, recovery, and reconstruction.
Villafuerte proposed this after President Duterte conducted an aerial inspection of the affected areas in Bicol and Calabarzon.
The proposed task force would give the President first-hand information on the extent of the damages.
He also described Super Typhoon Rolly as the world's strongest typhoon in 2020.
Villafuerte emphasized that a considerable amount of time and effort is needed from the national government to get the devastated provinces back on their feet.
