Before, During, and After:

Resiliency to Typhoon Ondoy
Introduction
1987 Philippine Constitution, Article XII, National Economy
and Patrimony. Section 5. The state shall subject to the
provisions of this constitution and national development
policies and programs, shall protect the rights of of indigenous
cultural communities to their ancestral lands to ensure their
economic, social, and cultural well-being.
 The Philippines maintains a high disaster risk profile attribute do

its location within the arum-pacific belt (Pacific Ring of Fire) and the

typhoon belt of the North Pacific basin. Consequently, the Philippines

suffers from frequent earthquakes, volcanic eruption, lava and

mudflow, landslides, typhoons, floods and drought that adversely

impact on the populace, most especially the poor.

 This constitutes a major development issues as the frequent

disasters, natural or human induced, hinder government efforts to

reduce poverty and less vulnerabilities of many low-income, hazard

prone-located communities.
 It recognizes the human factors in disasters. Thereby

encouraging individual and communal responsibility for action, such

as preparation of a disaster plan,capacity building to implement the

plan, and modification of recovery priorities to deal with predictable

and unpredictable consequences of disasters.

 According to Hagan (2017), resilient communities undergo four

disaster management phases; mitigation, disaster preparedness,

response, and recovery. Mitigation is defined to be actions that are

taken before a disaster to decrease vulnerability. Disaster impact that

enable social to persona when the disaster strikes. Disaster response

the actions done before and during the disaster impact to reduce

damages. Lastly disaster recovery the action taken to restore

disrupted routine and economic activities.

 According to Abon et al.,2011 stated that Mines and

Geosciences Bureau (MGB) have produced floor hazard maps that

illustrate the whole MGB floodplain to be flood print with an

exceedingly generalized distribution of flooding. These inundation

map fail o include areas adjacent to river channels that experienced

flash flooding as soon as the capacity of these channels are

exceeded often just a few hours after a rain even has started.
Statement of the Problem

The study will attempt to answer the following:

1. What is the resiliency of Barasenians before,during and after

Typhoon Ondoy?

2. What is the life of Barasenians after Typhoon Ondoy?

Research Design
The current study will be focus on the findings on the resiliency
of Barasenians to Typhoon Ondoy. In this study,the method
used in the study is Historical Approach of Research. Historical
Research Method and Approach is the process of
systematically examining an account of what has happened in
the past.It is not facts or dates or even a description of
recapture the nuances, personalities,ideas and events.
Subject of the Study
The subject of the study are the ten (10) Barasenian survivors
from Brgy.Santiago in Baras,Rizal. In choosing respondents,we
all know that this barangay is the barangay affected by
Typhoon Ondoy the most.The respondents wil be selected using
Purposive Sampling.The researchers will be chosen ten (10)
respondents in Barangay Santiago Baras,Rizal.
Research Locale
The study will be conducted in Barangay Santiago Baras,Rizal.
Brgy.Santiago is one of the ten barangays in Baras located at
the West most part of the town between Laguna de Bay. There
are seven (7) areas in Brgy.Santiago such as
Pugala,Balantian,Suro-suro,Mangga,Ferrera,Dulong Bayan and
Wawa. The said barangay was headed by Chairman Solomon
Vallestero.
Sources of Data
The interview serve as the primary source of information or
the primary data.To obtain necessary information from the
respondents, the researchers made use one kind of data
gathering instrument that give a qualitative data.
