As part of its information and education campaign, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) joined the Kabisig Philippine Government Expo and Trade Fair 2017 held at the Trinoma Mall Activity Center in Quezon City last July 17 to 19.
The Kabisig Expo and Trade Fair is an annual event that features government agencies and showcases the participants’ programs, services, projects and accomplishments.
To increase the awareness and preparedness of the public on natural disasters, MGB-prepared posters and flyers containing basic information about geohazards, sinkholes, floods and landslides were distributed. The MGB staff was present to explain the importance and uses of minerals.
This year’s Expo theme was: “Pamahalaan at Mamamayan: Magtulungan para sa Pagbabago at Kaunlaran.”
