THREE days after Mount Kanlaon erupted in Negros Island, an official of Canlaon City expressed his disappointment in the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology due to the agency’s lack of coordination. Dr. Elmer Empiales, the City’s public information officer, told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, June 5, 2024, that no representative from the Phivolcs observatory deck informed them about the “imminent eruption.
However, he said that based on the Phivolcs website, the volcano is still under alert level 2. He warned the public not to go near the four-kilometer permanent danger zone. As of Wednesday, Phivolcs reported 53 volcanic earthquakes and 4,113 tons of sulfur dioxide released since Tuesday. For health-related concerns, Empiales said they are advising the public to stay at home, especially the elderly and persons with disability.
