The Cebu-based Naval Forces Central (Navforcen) of the Philippine Navy on Friday deployed two teams from its naval construction brigadeto Bohol and Eastern Samar to help in the rehabilitation of areas affected by the 7.2-magnitude earthquake and super typhoon "Yolanda" last year
Commodore Reynaldo Yoma, Navforcen commander, said the two teams are tasked to help in the ongoing construction of damaged infrastructures in the two provinces.
Yoma said the team for Eastern Samar will also fix the naval base in Tacloban City
Once the team finishes the repairs at the base, Yoma said, it will then shift to the repair of damaged schools.
Ensign Jaypee Abuan, Navforcen public information officer, said the two teams are expected to fix the schools in Loay, Bohol and in Guiuan, Eastern Samar .
“We particularly choose to prioritize the schools since we want to give comfort to school kids while they are attending classes,” Abuan said.
The two Navy teams brought along with them construction materials purchased by their office and some from the donations of private sector.
The two teams left aboard Logistic Craft 551-BRP Dagupan City which also transported relief container vans from the United Nations High Commission for the typhoon victims.
