Deadio (2018) established the fact that there is no significant difference between the

provisions of the law and its implementation as regard to Prevention and Mitigation, Pre-Disaster
Preparedness, Disaster Response, and Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery of lioilo Province.
Moreover, this study aimed to determine the geographical vulnerabilities of lioilo Province and
the effect of Population and Budget to the implementation of Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management Act of 2010 (R.A NO.10121). Through the course of the study it was
determined that the law had been implemented as early as 2011; hence most of the programs are
already in its Updating, Improvement, and Inventory stages. Factual findings include the
determination of numerous geographical vulnerabilities of the province such as Tropical
Cyclone, Flood, Storm Surge, Landslides, Fire, Earthquakes and Tornado. Moreover it was
determined that there are four stages in Disaster Risk Reduction and Management being
implemented in the province- Prevention and Mitigation, Pre-Disaster Preparedness, Disaster
Response, and Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery. In addition, it was determined that the
Province of floilo has sufficient budget for the implementation of this legislation. It was further
ascertained that amendments are proposed for some provisions of the law.Recommendations are
basically focused on the continued nd active participation of the schools, government and vate
employees and the public in general in the implementation of Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management Act of 2010 (R.A. NO.10121).

Añasco et al. (2021) conducted a study entitled "Measuring small island disaster
resilience towards sustainable coastal and fisheries tourism: The case of Guimaras, Philippines".
Our results show that Guimaras is facing various natural and anthropogenic hazards. However,
local officials and community residents agreed that Guimaras is in the "Going Well Zone" (ie,
the island community is likely to be extremely resilient to any disaster) and that there is no
significant difference (t-test, a=0.05) in their ratings on disaster preparedness. As sun, sand, and
sea tourism is a growing industry worldwide, the assessment that small island tourist destinations
such as Guimaras is a resilient community would have positive impacts on the tourism industry,
possibility leading to the sustainable development of coastal communities with tourism as a
major source of supplemental or alternative livelihoods while reducing pressure on overexploited
fish stocks.

Manalo et al. (2020) conducted a study entitled “Exploring the Gap in implementing the
Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Law (RA 10121) in the K- 12 Senior High
School Institutions Curricula Section 14 of the Philippine DRRM Law states that DRM
education should be a required subject in all courses whether academic or technical vocational,
in line with this, the Department of Education (DepEd) included the Disaster Readiness and Risk
Reduction (DRRR) subject in the K-12 Senior High School curriculum after launching the K-12
program in 2013. However, after reviewing the curricula of two selected schools from the
Philippines, it was discovered that the DRRR subject was offered in the Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math (STEM) strand as a required subject while it is offered in the General
Academic (GAS) strand as either a required subject or an wiective. Furthermore, DepEd itself
prescribed DRRR as core subject only for STEM, with the other strands not required to take this
subject. Therefore, it is recommended for DepEd to revisit the Senior High School curricula and
try to include Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction as a required subject in all Senior High
School strands in order to prepare the nest generation in dealing with various hazards in the
Philippines

Domingo et al. (2018) conducted a study entitled “Disaster Preparedness and local
governance in the Philippines”. The high level of casualties, papulation displacements and
economic cost from recent disaster events still points to necessary augmentations in disaster
preparedness. Policy has to be revisited, institutional arrangements have to be reviewed and
resource mobilization issues have to be addressed.RA 10121,albeit strong on its own has to be
enhanced and supported by functional department policy to be apply cascade Policy and
planning alignments also have to be enhanced both from the national to subnational levels and
horizontally within local government institutions and national government agencies.

Antonio et al. (2017) measured the organizational effectiveness of the Barangay Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management Committees (BDRRMCS). The study showed the need for
periodic evaluation of the effectiveness of Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Committees (DRRMCS) and to set the standard of performance not only for the purpose of
policy evaluation but also for measuring community involvement in disaster risk reduction.

Moreno (2010) conducted a study entitled “An Assessment on the Level of Compliance
of Aaya National High School in Ra 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Act of 2010” On the level of compliance of service of the DRRM at Aplaya
National High School as assessed by the school coordinators and students in terms of early
warning system (wm 3.51), fire protection (m 3.34) and health and welfare services (wm 360)
received a descriptive interpretation of Very High. On the level of performance of the DRRM at
Aplaya National High School as assessed by the school coordinators and students in terms of
Readiness (W352) and Preparedness (wim 358) got the same descriptive interpretation of Highly
Evident. The computed R-value of 0.69 with the descriptive interpretation of Very HighPositive
Correlation states that there are significant relationships between level of compliance to the
performance level of Aplays National High Schoot in the implementation of RA 10121
