In an interview over Philippine Information Agency’s (PIA) Power FM radio anchored by Fryan Abkilan and Gideon Corgue, Mayor Cerilles said everyone is working to help them in their plight. “The show of support is overwhelming and encouraging. Everybody is involved and we are working as one Filipino nation helping each other,” he noted.
