Aquino visits evacuees at Marikina school
President Benigno Aquino III went to Marikina City Saturday afternoon to visit families who evacuated their homes due to rains and floods brought by tropical storm âFalcon." Shortly after arriving from Caticlan in Western Visayas, Aquino went to Nangka Elementary School where he saw for himself the plight of the evacuees. âKung may ibang problema, iparating lang ninyo... Mag-ingat kayo. Magtulungan tayo. Magdamayan tayo (If you have other concerns, just tell us⦠Be careful. Letâs help each other)," the President told the residents at the school. Government-run dzRB radio aired portions of the visit. Earlier in the day, Aquino cut short his attendance at the inauguration of a newly rehabilitated airport in Caticlan so he could visit the evacuees. Aquino will head for evacuation centers in Malabon City later in the day. â JE, GMA News
