Not all affected residents of Iloilo oil spill taken to hotels - officials
Excerpt
A local official here clarified that not all coastal residents affected by the oil spill triggered by a damaged power barge in Iloilo City have been transferred to hotels. “Only those who were staying at the evacuation centers were transferred to hotels,” said Donna Magno, director of the Iloilo City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (Iloilo City DRRMO). This disclosure came after AC Energy Philippines, owner of the damaged power barge, started moving evacuees Thursday night, following concerns raised by Mayor Jerry Treñas over the poor condition of the displaced residents at five evacuation centers.
