The Philippine
Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PhilVocs) warns
that the alert level 4 is not stable, Taal volcano can still make all the things
worst for us.
While we don’t want
the Mt.Pinatubo experience that really made Central Luzon down on its barest
knees.
So our countrymen
from Batangas is now being tested for the resiliency and adversity that every
Filipino is known for. But as early as now, some of them have nothing left to
return to.

Among the evacuees
was Boyet Gaduyon, a father of seven, inside the Sto. Tomas North Central School in
Batangas from Talisay where Taal Volcano is located
sifted through piles of clothes donated for their use.
“Kaisa-isang
kabayo ho ng anak ko…talagang wala na,” Gaduyon told The Philippine
STAR. He said the horse, apparently for tourists, was their only source of
livelihood, particularly in buying rice to eat.
Aside
from losing their horse, Gaduyon said their house was also buried by volcanic
ash. “ ’Yung bahay namin ho lubog.”
Asked
if they had something to return to in Talisay, he shook his head: “Ay, wala
na ho.”
Gayudon said they don’t
know how long they have to stay in the eveacuation area, since the Taal volcano
seems to be unrest for a long time.
As per City Social
Welfare Development, there were around 334 families or 1,092 individuals at the
North Central School as of yesterday – all of them from Talisay.
