Big corporations mobilizing to help typhoon victims: private sector foundation

The Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation , composed of some of the country’s major conglomerates, said teams from Meralco and Aboitiz Power have been deployed to restore power in typhoon-battered areas.

Construction conglomerate DMCI is also looking to set up temporary evacuation centers in Siargao and Cebu where families can have a safe place on Christmas eve and enjoy noche buena despite the devastation wrought by Odette, Meily said. “It’s christmas season. It’s a christmas typhoon, sometimes god gives us blessings that are well disguised,” Meily said.

PDRF said it was surprised by the rapid intensification of Odette from a tropical storm to a Category 5 typhoon in 24 hours.
