00:00Meanwhile, the Department of Health stressed a second humanitarian mission team can be sent to Myanmar

00:05in follow-up to the first one, an 89-member team from a coalition of government agencies

00:11that came home last night after a successful mission in the ravaged country since the first two days of this month.

00:19It was not easy campaign by any stretch of the imagination

00:23as the language barrier presented huge challenges for the Philippine humanitarian mission.

00:29Then again, if need be, the Department of Health vows to send at a moment's notice a follow-up team

00:36categorized by the World Health Organization as a type 1 fixed hospital, which is also self-sustaining.

00:44The first team managed to provide aid to at least 1,000 Filipino compatriots

00:50who are still nursing injuries and need medical attention and care both physically and psychologically,

00:56which a newly arrived eight-member squad has come to address.

01:01And despite sad conjecture and continued absence since the earthquake struck,

01:07the search for the two missing Filipinos, many have consigned to doom or death continues.

01:13The first challenge po na na-encounter namin was yung communication kasi magkaipa po yung language namin.

01:23But we were given interpreters ng OCD.

01:27And then during dun po sa operation namin sa Pianmina, may mga nag-volunteer po mga student and Filipino teachers

01:35na tumulong po sa amin para maka-communicate po kami ng mabuti sa mga pasyente.

01:41And the next po was the weather.

01:44Kasi umabot po ng 45.1 yung temperature doon.

01:48So inom lang po ng water.

01:50Kahapon nagpadala din tayo ng apat na team for psychosocial support.

01:55Sayanggun naman sila.

01:56Sayanggun sila assigned.

01:58Ang mission naman nila to help yung mga Filipinos na suffering from psychosocial problems

02:04because of the effect ng earthquake.

02:06So support naman natin yun.

02:07I think yung embassy sayanggun ang tumutulong sa kanila.
