Most people in our country do not completely know how to respond during or before a
disaster because of differences in perspectives. As a result, the researchers aimed to
determine in this study the disaster response preparedness of the residents in Barangay
Calibuyo using probability sampling, wherein five barangay officials and ten residents of
Barangay Calibuyo, Tanza, Cavite were identified as the participants of the study. The study
found out that the disaster most experienced by the Barangay is typhoon which had and
caused damage to their houses. The researchers also found out that the residents face
difficulties in terms of evacuation during calamities particularly, particularly typhoons. Apart
from that, the residents were unsure how they would rebuild their houses after the disaster as
well as their agricultural lands. Residents' responses showed that there is willingness to attend
on seminars if the barangay would conduct one which revealed that, the barangay does not
offer any seminar about disaster response. In terms of other disasters, the barangay is not
prepared to face different kinds of disasters like storm surges, pandemic, and tsunamis. The
answer of the majority was that the measures of the barangay was not enough to assure the
safety of individuals when it comes to bigger disasters. Researchers found out the need to
improve readiness when it comes to disasters. Over-all, the preparedness of the community in
disaster response specifically.
Brgy. Calibuyo, Tanza Cavite was not enough due to lack of capacities of line agencies
and Local Government Units (LGUs) to assume Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM)
activities. Among the reasons included were limited manpower, lack of technical knowledge
and understanding, limited financial resources, and lack of equipment.
