Magaling ang LGUs ng Albay, from the governor to the mayors, I’ve seen it myself,” he said in an interview on CNN Philippines. As of Wednesday, 15,502 individuals or 4,417 families are temporarily staying in 22 evacuation centers, while 659 people or 185 families were seeking shelter outside of evacuation centers, based on a report by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council .
