As super typhoon Mawar nears the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR), the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) assured that the government is ready to provide aid to people who may be affected by the wrath of the tropical cyclone.
President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. does not intend to enforce a total deployment ban of Filipino workers to Kuwait, saying he does not want to burn bridges.
Residents of Northern Luzon were advised to brace for heavy rains that super typhoon Mawar may trigger as early as Sunday evening, May 28.
