-MANILA, Philippines –  Disaster officials have set up additional evacuation centers in Sorsogon to accommodate thousands of evacuees in an event of a major explosion of the restive Mt. Bulusan.
-National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) executive officer and retired Army general, Benito Ramos reported as of yesterday, there are already a total of 52 evacuation areas that have been put up from a safe distance of Mt. Bulusan.
+SORSOGON City – A former mayor of  Matnog, Sorsogon convicted by the Sandiganbayan of graft charges is set to be transferred from the local Bureau of Jail Management and Penology district jail to the National Bilibid Prison, in Muntinlupa City, Metro Manila this month.
-These evacuation centers – 15 in the town of Juban; 15 in Gubat, five in Casiguran; five in Irosin; 11 in Bulusan; four in Barcelona; and eight in Sorsogon City – can accommodate a total of 49,218 persons at one given time, Ramos said.
+A local news group in Sorsogon, “the Media Solutions,” reported, that former Matnog Mayor Guillermo “Guaming” Gacis So, 67, is detained in a separate cell away from the hardened criminals.
-Ramos said the putting up of the evacuation centers is in line with the ongoing preparation being undertaken both by the national, regional, provincial and municipal-attached disaster units due to the continuing abnormal behavior of Mt. Bulusan.
+His family visits him regularly since his detention  on Oct. 21.
-Disaster officials in coordination with the country’s volcanologists installed signages around Mt. Bulusan, warning the public not to venture within the four-kilometer danger zones.
+So was convicted for ordering the suspension of Barangay Laboy chairman Ernesto Gile based on a spurious Sangguniang Bayan resolution.
-“Bulusan siesmic monitoring network has detected 41 volcanic earthquakes during the past 24-hour observation period,” Ramos said as he reminded residents around the area to be alert and be ready to move to safe grounds if the need arises.
+Resolution 31–03, series of 2002 was spuriously made to show it was approved by the Sangguniang Bayan recommending the suspension of Gile who was accused of abuse of authority and malversation of public funds.
+Based on the Anti–Graft court resolution promulgated Aug. 24 and penned by Associate Justice Roland Jurado, So was sentenced to eight years imprisonment and fined    P5,000.
