                    [Summary] => 



If the government’s civil defense office was a private corporation required by the SEC to do risk assessment, lahar danger should have been one of those risks listed down and plans to mitigate its danger planned for. It is obvious government’s disaster planning for Super Typhoon Reming (international code name: Durian) was faulty. The systems need to be improved.
