“When you come to Bohol, this is the real state of calamity,” Yap said.
The governor pleaded for more funds from DSWD as the province has used up all remaining funds to procure food and basic necessities and yet came up short of what was needed. “Please don’t tell me your absorption is 100 percent. Let the LGUs help in procuring food and water. Here in Bohol we are undergoing a Yolanda-like situation,” he added.
