The Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MDRRMO) of the Municipality of Daanbantayan conducted the campus’ traditional first quarter nationwide simultaneous earthquake drills on March 9, 2023. This was participated in by the Cebu Technological University Daanbantayan (CTU DB) Campus students, faculty, and support staff.
The alarming news of earthquake occurrences around the country has alleviated active response and preparedness. The initiation of the activity after the pandemic hiatus allows the Daanbantayan campus to avoid unnecessary excursions and provide an urgent response at times of crisis.
The Bureau of Fire Protection was also present during the earthquake drill to witness and assess the students’ execution during the drill.
After the earthquake drill, the student’s performance was evaluated. This was led by the MDRRMO team, together with the CTU DB key officials.
