ILOILO City – The Capiz Association of Government Public Information Officers, Inc. (CAGPIO) will commemorate super typhoon Yolanda’s third year anniversary with a tree planting activity to be held at Brgy. Lagdungan, Tapaz on Nov. 9.
The tree planting will be complemented with a lecture on Bomb and Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Awareness and Security by the Philippine Army’s 1st Explosives and Ordnance Disposal Platoon.
The upcoming activity is also in collaboration with the 61st Infantry Batallion through its commanding officer Lt. Col. Leornardo I. Peña.
A tree planting activity was also conducted by the CAGPIO members at the Meditation Hills in Sitio Bangkal, Brgy. Maninang in Sapi-an in 2014 to mark the super typhoon’s 1st anniversary which was also in response to a Sangguniang Panlalawigan resolution which called for the conduct of meaningful anti-climate change activities to increase public awareness on the environmental issue..
The super typhoon’s 1st anniversary last Nov. 8, 2014, was also declared as “Thanksgiving Day” in the province. (With a report from PIA)/PN
