On October 19, 2026, our very own President, Ivannritch Custodio Broqueza, attended the 4th Quarter Full Council Meeting of the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management โ Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Council (MDRRM-CCAMC) held at the Camalig Command Center (CCC), Brgy. Salugan, Camalig, Albay. The meeting was led by the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Camalig, headed by Mayor Hon. Carlos Irwin G. Baldo, Jr.

โThe meeting focused on strengthening the municipalityโs preparedness for the anticipated El Niรฑo phenomenon and other potential disasters. Through Executive Order No. 33, s. 2026, Mayor Baldo established the Camalig El Niรฑo Task Force to coordinate the municipalityโs response. MDRRMO Chief Rommel V. Negrete Jr., PhD, JD, D, also discussed preparations for the expected intensification of El Niรฑo in February and March 2027, alongside important updates on Mayon Volcano and the approaching weather disturbance then known as Typhoon โChampi.โ

โTogether with representatives from the MDRRMO, Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), Philippine National Police (PNP), Camalig Water District (CWD), Municipal Agriculture Office (MAO), Municipal Health Office (MHO), and other key sectors of the LGU, participants reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening disaster preparedness, inter-agency coordination, and community safety. The council also welcomed Camalig District Jail Warden SINSP Michael Jacob as its newest member.
