Ping: Posibleng Spillover ng Krisis sa Russia at Ukraine, Dapat Paghandaan ng Pinas

Kailangang maghanda ang Pilipinas sa posibleng paglaganap ng epekto ng sigalot sa pagitan ng Russia at Ukraine, ayon kay Senador Ping Lacson nitong Sabado.

Ayon kay Lacson, kailangan panindigan ng ating gobyerno ang pagsuporta nito sa United Nations General Assembly resolution na nagkukundena sa paglusob ng Russia sa Ukraine.

Kasama rito aniya ang pagpapagamit ng ating mga pasilidad sa mga kakamping bansa tulad ng Estados Unidos.

The Philippines must be fully prepared for a possible spillover to Asia of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Saturday.

Lacson said the Philippines has to walk the talk since it has supported the United Nations General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

He said this includes allowing the use of our facilities by allies such as the United States.

Ping: Safety Nets Kailangan vs Epekto ng Posibleng Pagsakop ng Russia sa Ukraine

Kailangang maghanda ng safety nets ang ating gobyerno para maprotektahan ang mga kababayan natin na maapektuhan ng posibleng epekto sa ekonomiya ng nagbabantang pagsakop ng Russia sa Ukraine, ayon kay Senador Ping Lacson.

Para kay Lacson na pinuno ng Senate Committee on National Defense and Security, bagamat malayo ang Pilipinas sa Ukraine, posibleng magkaroon pa rin ng epekto ang naturang insidente sa buong mundo.

“We might think that Ukraine is far away, and that there is no danger for the Philippines.  We are all living in a global village.  An invasion of Ukraine may adversely affect the stock markets all over the world. Prices of basic commodities and fuel may increase. We need to be prepared for this, not to mention that we are still suffering from the pandemic and are far from economic recovery,” ani Lacson.

Lacson Calls for Economic Safety Nets from Potential Russian Invasion of Ukraine

The Philippine government should lose no time in preparing safety nets to protect Filipinos from a possible economic fallout caused by Russia’s “imminent” invasion of Ukraine, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said.

Lacson, who chairs the Senate Committee on National Defense and Security, said that while Ukraine is far from the Philippines, an invasion there may have adverse effects worldwide.

“We might think that Ukraine is far away, and that there is no danger for the Philippines. We are all living in a global village. An invasion of Ukraine may adversely affect the stock markets all over the world. Prices of basic commodities and fuel may increase. We need to be prepared for this, not to mention that we are still suffering from the pandemic and are far from economic recovery,” Lacson said.
