Emergency, Know Your Numbers!


At the time of my writing, virtually the whole island of Mindanao has been put on Warning Storm Signal with the Tropical Depression ONYOK on its way. Landfall should be around 8pm local time, in Surigao del Norte province.

In my previous post I made a general list of things to have in your Family Evacuation Kit.
One of those important things, beside the contact number of your family, are the Information Numbers to contact the Emergency Service.

Davao is blessed to have the only 911 service in the Philippines. So in case of emergency it is not difficult to know which number to contact in case of trouble.


Other numbers in Davao City should be kept preciously at hand


POLICE & SERVICES
Buhangin Police Station : 2411000
Calinan Police Station : 2950119
PNP Camp Domingo Leonor : 166
San Pedro Police Station : 2264835

Toril Police Station : 2911633

Davao City Water District Emergency Hotline

City Public Safety Company : (082) 221-0014

Beside Davao City's proper emergency numbers, the Philippines possess other numbers available

PHILIPPINE RED CROSS



Other Nation wide numbers



To close this short post, her a good reminder in case of disaster ahead from the Red Cross


My turn to prepare for Tropical Depression Onyok.

Stay safe. And remember in case of Emergency, know Your Numbers!
